  • Mary Tyler Moore and Other Celebs React to Valerie Harper’s Terminal Diagnosis

    (Everett Collection)Valerie Harper is just as beloved by her co-stars as she is by TV viewers.

    As the news that the 73-year-old Harper has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer broke on Wednesday, messages of admiration and support began to roll in for the former "Rhoda" star.

    Mary Tyler Moore, Harper's on-screen BFF in the iconic show "Mary Tyler Moore" and close friend in real life, publicly responded with a statement published at People.

    "I'm absolutely devastated by this news," Moore said of her '70s sitcom co-star. "Valerie has given so much joy, laughter and love to the world. I join her fans and send much love and positive thoughts to her and her family during this difficult time."

    Moore, 76, found out about the diagnosis when Harper confided in her during a phone conversation on Tuesday. Harper recounted the call. "After small talk, She said, 'What's up?' I said, 'It's incurable cancer.' She said, 'Val, I'm so sorry.'"

    Some of the funny lady's other former co-stars weighed in as well.

  • Justin Bieber Rants About ‘Rumors’ on Twitter

    Justin Bieber (Splash News)Justin Bieber has let loose in a Twitter tirade, calling out his haters.

    And what the 19-year-old had to say Wednesday was a lot longer than 140 characters! He actually fired off a dozen tweets defending himself against "rumors."

    The Biebs' rant came two days after he reportedly showed up for a concert at London's O2 Arena two hours late - a big problem for an audience full of kids out on a school night.

  • Paris Jackson Cheers for Her School

    (Splash News)Paris Jackson seems more likely to be a cool artsy chick than a school cheerleader.

    But, as the 14-year-old daughter of the late Michael Jackson revealed this week, she's both. Paris was recently photographed while clad in a red and black uniform and wielding pom pons as she rooted for The Buckley School. Apparently, the support worked, because the Griffins are now in the state playoffs!

    In the pics — one of which she posted to her Twitter account on Monday — the aspiring actress rocks the dark, short hairstyle that she's been edging toward since the fall. But no sign of the dramatic earring that she showed off in another pic she posted last week.

    Dennis Quaid has just taken the concept of staying on friendly terms with an ex to a whole new level.

    According to TMZ, the 58-year-old actor purchased a $3.1 million home in Los Angeles’ swanky Pacific Palisades enclave, where his 5-year-old twins, Thomas and Zoe, will reside with their mother, Kimberly Buffington — whom he split with last October. (She field for divorce six weeks before he did.) The website reports that both Quaid and Buffington's names are on the title of the property. However, the divorce settlement stipulates that only Buffington and the kids can live there until the kids turn 18.

  • Snooki Talks Sex After Baby, Boobs, and the Lesson She Learned From Being Bullied

    Snooki models her xoVain makeunder. (xoVain)Snooki might not be the first person you think of when considering great role models, but she actually has some wise words.

    No, really! The "Snooki and JWoww" star makes a lot of sense in a new interview published on sister websites xoJane, by former Jane magazine editor Jane Pratt, and its recently launched beauty counterpart, xoVain, alongside photos of the pint-size reality star with a stripped-down look. When the reporter asks Snooks if she has any regrets about some of the ridiculous antics she pulled during all those drunken nights on the "Jersey Shore" — conveniently captured on film for all of eternity — she says no.

    "That's just how I am. Like, if you do stupid sh**: That was stupid, whoops, move on from it, learn from it," she reveals. "And I think that's how everybody should be."

  • Russell Crowe, 48, Denies Dating 22-Year-old Samantha Barks — Sort of

    Samantha Barks and Russell Crowe (Startraksphoto.com)Are Russell Crowe and the Jonas Brothers now going for the same women?

    As disturbing as that sounds, the 48-year-old Crowe has been romantically linked to his "Les Misérables" co-star Samantha Barks — the same British actress once reported to be dating Nick Jonas! In case you forgot, that's the youngest JoBro, who's the ripe old age of 20. (Nick was Barks' co-star in the production of the classic story in London's West End in 2010.)

    To further put Barks and Crowe's age difference in perspective, consider that Barks' part in the "Les Miz" film was the role of Eponine, the one that almost went to 23-year-old Taylor Swift! And don’t forget that by the time Crowe became a mega-star in "Gladiator," he was 14 years older than Barks is now.

    Rihanna once revealed an obsession with actress Gwyneth Paltrow, mostly because of her fab physique.

    With lady love Kim Kardashian by his side and a baby on the way, Kanye West is ready to settle down — at least a little.

    The outspoken rapper is still making public rants, like he did during a concert over the weekend, but he is ready to say goodbye to his bachelor pad for good. West, 35, has put his 4,124-square-foot home in L.A.’s Hollywood Hills on the market at a lower price than he's listed it before, according to real estate blog Trulia Luxe Living.

    This time last year, Paris Jackson looked like a sweet little girl with long, straight brown hair and piercing blue eyes.
