KIM KARDASHIAN revealed last week that she’s back ON with New REGGIE BUSH and in a new interview, says quote,  "I think sometimes people need to take a break just to take time off to see how much they need each other and how much they really are compatible." And speaking of the Kardashian's KOURTNEY . . . (She's the pregnant one) . . . got ROBBED on Saturday. --Kourtney returned to her townhouse at about 8:30 P.M. Saturday and discovered that the place had been broken into. The thief or thieves took more than $108,000 worth of jewelry. --Kourtney was only out for about 90 minutes. She was having dinner with her baby-daddy.

 

Actors always claim they don't get excited during sex scenes, because it's so mechanical, it's just a job, there are people watching, etc. But I think the average person knows that can't be entirely true. --JESSE METCALFE . . . who played the sexy young gardener who was having an affair with EVA LONGORIA on "Desperate Housewives" . . . admits that guys do POP WHEELIES sometimes during love scenes. --During an interview last week . . . Jesse admitted that he had arousal issues more than once while filming erotic moments with Eva. --The first time it happened, they were just REHEARSING for their very first love scene. --Jesse said that when the rehearsal was over, the director asked them to get out of bed because they had to get ready to film the scene. And Jesse had to tell him, quote, "I need a minute."

 

 

STEPHANIE PRATT from "The Hills" got a DUI early yesterday morning. --Cops nailed Stephanie at about 3:45 A.M. She had been out partying until about 3:00 A.M., celebrating the birthday of fellow reality "star" HOLLY MONTAG.   --Stephanie . . . who's 23 years old . . . ended up spending a few hours in lockup. She was released on $5,000 bail at 10:00 A.M. yesterday. --Here's some irony for you: On Saturday night, before she hit the clubs, Stephanie spoke with E! News. --And she said, quote, "I'm a party-pooper tonight. I got bad news this morning. A friend passed away in a car accident, so everyone needs to drive safe."

 

 

Over the last week or two, NICOLAS CAGE has been getting some pretty bad financial news. First, he got sued by a bank for defaulting on a $2 million loan. -Then, the IRS announced it was going after him for $6.2 million in unpaid taxes and penalties. --And we wondered . . . How does a guy who made $40 million between June of 2008 and June of '09 . . . (--according to "Forbes" magazine) . . . get into that kind of trouble. --And the answer is . . . THE SHADY BUSINESS MANAGER. --On Friday, Cage sued business manager Samuel Levin for sending him down a, quote, "path toward financial ruin." He's demanding AT LEAST $20 million from the guy. --Cage claims that over a period of seven years. Levin put his money into, quote, "highly speculative and risky real estate investments." This resulted in, quote, "catastrophic losses," which forced Cage to sell off major assets and investments. --He also blames Levin for not paying the IRS. And he says Levin never informed him of his bottom line. So Cage was basically spending money without having a good grasp of how much he had to spend.

 

ANNA NICOLE SMITH'S baby-daddy, LARRY BIRKHEAD, testified Friday in the preliminary hearing of Anna's three alleged drug enablers. As expected, he didn't drop any bombs or try to bury anybody. --Larry testified that Anna popped pills like candy when he lived with her from 2004 to 2006. She even continued taking methadone and Valium while pregnant with their daughter, Dannielynn. --He also said Anna suffered from seizures . . . but she denied they were the result of the drugs. --Anna's former boyfriend (slash) attorney (slash) hanger-on Howard K. Stern . . . along with doctors Sandeep Kapoor and Khristine Eroshevich . . . are accused of keeping Anna's stash of illegally-prescribed pills stocked, even though they knew she was dangerously addicted. --They're each accused of multiple felonies. For some reason, this preliminary hearing STILL isn't over.

 

LINDSAY LOHAN showed up in a Beverly Hills courtroom yesterday, as she had been ordered to . . . and was greeted with the news that her DUI probation has been extended by a year. --The reason Lindsay's presence was required was because she had been missing too many of her court-ordered alcohol education classes. --Her attorney told the judge that Lindsay was busy with work commitments . . . and had accidentally failed to notify her alcohol education instructors that she was out of state filming a movie and would resume classes when she got back. --After the judge tacked another year onto Lindsay's probation . . . (--Which was originally supposed to last three years) . . . she told her to get court approval the next time she leaves L.A. for work. --She also warned Lindsay that she could be looking at JAIL TIME if she messes up again.

 

LINDSAY LOHAN'S father, MICHAEL LOHAN, is getting pretty serious about his efforts to "save" his daughter from her supposed drug and emotional problems. --Over the weekend, he told a gossip website that he's meeting with a judge this week to see if he can have Lindsay placed under a conservatorship. (--He's looking for the same kind of arrangement BRITNEY SPEARS has, where her dad basically has legal control over her. Frankly, it really HAS helped turn Britney around. As far as anyone on the outside can tell, anyway.) --If he can't get the conservatorship, Michael may resort to more extreme measures. He says, quote, "I'm going to take her to an undisclosed location and get her straight. But I know I'm gonna get charged with kidnapping."

 

 

TLC has sued JON GOSSELIN for breach of contract . . . a move that seemed inevitable ever since Jon banned the network from continuing to film "Jon and Kate Plus Eight", or any other show involving his eight children. --But TLC's lawsuit, which was filed Friday, isn't going after Jon for demanding that production be shut down. The "breach of contract" involves all the TV interviews Jon has done recently, which have been done without their consent. --TLC also released a statement . . . saying, quote, "The network has been trying privately and patiently for months to get Jon to honor the contract he signed and to comply with his obligations relating to public appearances and statements. Those efforts have been unsuccessful." --The lawsuit asks that Jon be ordered to adhere to his contract with TLC . . . and to give the network any money he made from interviews on other networks' shows. --RadarOnline claims that TLC knows how much Jon has been raking in from those "media appearances" . . . and those numbers could come out at some point. --The site also claims that TLC is asking for damages as well, for defamation. Jon, of course, has repeatedly bashed TLC and "Jon & Kate Plus Eight" in those interviews. --By the way, there's talk that Jon has been trying to land a gig as an "awards show presenter." Supposedly, he's contacted the producers of at least two shows . . . and he even dropped his asking price from $30,000 to . . . NOTHING. --As enticing as that must be . . . (???) . . . he hasn't drawn any interest yet.
