Brown's in treatment. (SWAP/Splash News)Six months after his ex-wife Whitney Houston died due to a combination of cocaine use, heart disease, and ultimately drowning, Bobby Brown is seeking treatment for his own addictions. The former New Edition singer, who was arrested for DUI in March, is currently in a rehab center, his new wife confirms. "He's doing great," Alicia Etheredge tells RadarOnline. Although a source tells the site that Brown, 43, is getting help for an alcohol addiction, his wife of just two months wouldn't confirm that detail.

Swift is red. (Denise Truscello/WireImage)All of Taylor Swift's exes better hide. The singer doubled her fans' excitement on Monday when she announced during a live online chat that she will be releasing her fourth album, Red, on October 22, and then also dropped its first single, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together." The track, a very pop-centric song that is quite a departure for the country star, is about an ex-boyfriend who tells all his friends that he and Swift will be reuniting even though that is not in the cards.

Mel B, Mel C, Geri, Emma, and Victoria. (Getty Images) The closing ceremony at the London Olympics will be rather spicy. After weeks of speculation, a photo of the Spice Girls rehearsing a performance in an empty lot was posted on Twitter on Thursday, proving the Brit girl group will indeed be a part of the big show on August 12. All five of the singers — Victoria "Posh" Beckham, Geri "Ginger" Halliwell, Emma "Baby" Bunton, Mel "Scary" Brown, and Mel "Sporty" Chisholm — are seen standing on black cars, with men in suits hanging off the backs.

Whitney and Bobbi Kristina. (Jeff Kravitz/FilmMagic.com)Bobbi Kristina Brown may have lost her mother Whitney Houston in February, but she will always remain a part of her. To mark what would have been the "I Will Always Love You" singer's 49th birthday on Thursday, the 19-year-old had "WH" tattooed on the inside of her right wrist, adorned with four doves. But she wasn't the only one who went for the ink. Bobbi Kristina's adopted brother-turned-boyfriend Nick Gordon also did the same. "now your truly ALWAYS with us mommy," Bobbi Kristina wrote on Wednesday night along with a photo of her and Gordon's tattoos on Twitter. "we love you always&forever."

Sparks on Redbook. (Giles Bensimon)For her first film, "American Idol" winner Jordin Sparks had quite a co-star: Whitney Houston. And now that "Sparkle" has become the late singing legend's final performance, there's even more attention being put on the movie musical, which hits theaters on August 17. "I get so overwhelmed because it's my first film, and for my first film to be so deep and heavy," Sparks, who plays the title character, says in the September issue of Redbook. "I got to work with one of my idols and sing with her, and she even played my mother. I don't know if anything will ever be as good as this. Sometimes I ask myself, 'Why did I deserve to have a part in a film like this?' I don't want this to come off crazy, but somebody said to me, 'It's like Whitney essentially passed the torch.' And to hear that, it's just nuts."

Travis' mug shot. (Splash News)Onstage last year. (Paul Morigi/WireImage)Six months after he was arrested for DUI while parked in front of a church, country singer Randy Travis was once again popped for the same offense — except this time, he was naked. Police in Texas responded to a 911 call about a man lying in a roadway and found the 53-year-old completely nude, apparently drunk, and injured after he crashed his 1998 Pontiac Trans Am into a construction barrier. According to TMZ, Travis refused a Breathalyzer test, so blood was drawn at the scene to determine his blood-alcohol level. For his mug shot — which showed his black eye, cuts, and scrapes sustained in the single-car crash — cops were nice enough to give the "I Told You So" singer a black T-shirt to wear, as well as paper pants to cover his nether regions.

Follically-gifted Bieber. (Kevin Mazur/WireImage)Heir to no hair, William. (Indigo/Getty Images)Justin Bieber's mop top has been the butt of many jokes over the years, and he can not only take it — but he can apparently dish it out, too. In an interview with Rollercoaster magazine, the "Boyfriend" singer called out none other than his royal highness, Prince William, for his thinning hair. "I mean, there are things to prevent that nowadays, like Propecia," Bieber, 18, told the U.K. publication. "I don't know why he doesn't just get those things, those products. You just take Propecia and your hair grows back. Have you not got it over here?"

Rossee and Phelps. (Tim Whitby/Getty Images)Michael Phelps may have won four gold and two silver medals at the London Olympic games, but he's leaving with arguably a more brag-worthy prize: his model girlfriend, Megan Rossee. Although the two have been dating for about five months, the statuesque blonde had gone largely unnoticed until she tweeted a photo of herself and the decorated swimmer celebrating his win with all of his gold medals at House of St. Barnabas on Sunday. Last night, they made their official debut on the red carpet at a Speedo event in London. While Rossee, a Hollywood cocktail waitress, certainly looked good on Phelps' arm, those who know her are warning that in the end she'll probably just break his heart.
