While out celebrating her 11th wedding anniversary to her husband Bobby last night, Jill Zarin showed off the giant cocktail ring her bought her from Elizabeth Taylor's jewelry collection auction last month. While in the video footage on TMZ, Jill says she and her husband "don't talk about money," the ring-designed by famed jeweler Zohrab Istanboulian-was reportedly purchased for $19,000. More »

Jill Zarin opened up today about Bravo's decision to fire her from the Real Housewives of New York City cast this morning. (Zarin wasn't the only cast member to get the axe: Alex McCord, Kelly Bensimon, and newcomer Cindy Barshop were let go as well.) "It was a little jolting," said the now ex-Housewife to Good Morning America. "You know, nobody likes not being asked to the party." More »

Jill Zarin, Kelly Bensimmon, Alex McCord, and Cindy Barshop have been cut from season 5 of RHONY. What are they supposed to do now? Just freelance their Realness? Non-FDA approved prescription drug trials? Be professionally Not Employed but act as consultants? Maybe they could form a staffing firm called Deloitte & Douche. All claim to be working on exciting new projects, because everyone who gets fired likes to pretend they're happy about it for a few days. If a reality TV fameball becomes enraged and pulls a hair extension from a shrieking social rival's head in the middle of a busy restaurant and no cameras are around to record it, does it still make a sound? [People]

What in the name of fuck is this fuckery? Serial unrepentant purveyor of domestic violence and generally painfully unfunny scumbag Charlie Sheen is rumored to be presenting at the Emmy awards tonight because the television industry just wants to make it clear that women can just go ahead fuck themselves.

Jay Z is upset with Kelly Rowland for going on tour with angry singing toddler/ladypuncher Chris Brown. [Digital Spy]

Lindsay Lohan lost her phone earlier this week because of course she did. A kind stranger returned it and received the reward of One Thank You from Lindsay Lohan. Whatever carrier Lindsay's on probably includes "Lohan phone loss/replacement" in its quarterly projections. I bet board members get nervous when she head-fakes an end to the party scene. "What are we going to do to replace the lost Lohan phone revenue?" they say to each other, "Do you think they'll be staff reductions? Because I just bought that new boat and we need that Lohan boost to bring our numbers to where they need to be." And then the first guy says, "Don't worry. There are three terrible clubs opening in the next month. She's sure to lose at least two phones." [TMZ]

Westboro Baptist Church picketed a Foo Fighters show in Kansas City last night, and in response, the band counter-picketed them, singing a taunting song from the back of a flat bed semi while wearing wigs and fake mustaches. In other news, Dave Grohl is my Ryan Gosling. [Digital Spy]

Beyonce walked the runway to close her House of Dereon brand's fashion show in London. She wore a black sparkly maternity pantsuit so well that I briefly considered getting myself a black sparkly maternity pantsuit, even though I am not pregnant and Beyonce is literally the only human ever born who could pull that off except maybe David Bowie.

Marc Anthony cried onstage after his fans sang Happy Birthday to him at a concert in Miami on Friday. I can't be the only one who has to pause and think for a second every time I have to type or say his name. Is it Marc Anthony or Mark Antony? One slept with Cleopatra and the other married Jenny from the Block... [People]

Speaking of Jenny, Ms. Lopez and estranged husband Marc(k?) Ant(h?)ony put their differences aside to continue celebrating his 43rd birthday this weekend. What does one get for a 43 year old man who still celebrates his birthday like he's turning seven? A big firetruck that makes real sounds, probably. [JustJared]

Matthew Fox won't be charged with anything after punching a female bus driver in the swimsuit areas last month. The woman's attorney was shocked by the state's decision, but he should have known that it's impossible to charge Matthew Fox with any sort of crime because he's been dead all along. [Yahoo]

The wife of the guitarist from Journey is pretty upset that her husband is carrying on with that lady who wasn't invited to the White House, because Journey Guy only married The Wife two months ago (I'm deliberately not using names here because I don't want any of you to waste your mental resources on knowing who these people are. Save yourselves!). Anyway, the husband of The Non-Invited Lady is also upset about this whole to-do and has been banned from Journey concerts. The two lovebirds reportedly met when he saw her in a smoky room. She smelled like wine and cheap perfume. And then, contrary to the advice of professionals, he Stopped Believing in marriage. [TMZ]

Barry Manilow agrees with everything Ron Paul says, which means that if you don't have health insurance, Barry Manilow wants you to die. [BuzzFeed]

Regular people who live in Jennifer Aniston's neighborhood are upset that paparazzi have swarmed to the place like so many couples in matching America-themed windsuits to a Sarah Palin book signing. According to complaints, the photographers have caused traffic congestion and minor accidents. They've also caused more pictures of Jennifer Aniston to be taken, which, at this point, seems kind of wasteful. Haven't you taken enough pictures of Jennifer Aniston? Can't we just photoshop existing snapshots of Jennifer Aniston onto different backgrounds and have it look pretty much the same as completely new photos? She's had about the same hair and wardrobe since 2001. [TMZ] More »

Ramona Singer's wine consumption has been a major plot line throughout this entire season of Real Housewives of New York, which was her own doing, as she was heavily promoting her own brand of Ramona Pinot Grigio in nearly every episode. Some of the cast members who don't particularly like her—Kelly, LuAnn, Cindy and especially Jill—used her on-camera drinking as a chance to suggest that she has a problem with alcohol. They repeatedly mentioned "Turtle Time" as something that Ramona should be ashamed of, as though it wasn't one of the best things to happen on reality TV ever. Besides, if they really did think that Ramona were an alcoholic, wouldn't it be much more appropriate for them to confront her, or perhaps one of the producers, with their concerns so that she actually could get help, instead of implying it on camera or in their blogs?

One year after she first sang her second dance single live on Watch What Happens, Countess LuAnn finally got around to actually recording "Chic, C'est la Vie," and the video for it dropped today. It features Jill Zarin and Kelly Bensimon—who play the Countess' cohorts, helping her sip champagne in the back of limos, sit poolside in plush bathrobes, and gamble at a casino—but other NYC Housewives get a shout out in the song, including Alex's husband Simon. Originally described as "spoken word over a Saint-Tropez beat," the finished product actually sounds an awful lot like Ke$ha, which is decidedly not classy. More »

Jill Zarin knew that she'd have to rehab her image quite a bit to recover from coming off as a mean girl last year, so on last night's premiere of the fourth season of Real Housewives of New York Jill made it known that she's changed and she's going to be nothing but kind—until she ran into "that fucking bitch Alex McCord."

Today, most of the cast members of Real Housewives of New York—everyone except the Countess and Sonja—were on The View today to promote the new season (premiering April 7). Jill Zarin and Kelly Bensimon, who both didn't like how they were portrayed on the show last season, are now saying that the show isn't "real," or at least that it wasn't last year, and imply that this had to do with their respective relationships to Bethenny Frankel, with whom the two ladies still seem to have something of a preoccupation if not obsession.

After postponing the fourth season of Real Housewives of New York City to make room for the show's Miami installment, Bravo has announced an official premiere date: April 7. The extended trailer above makes us realize just how much this cast has been missed. Kelly's doing snow angels in the sand. The Countess is insulting Alex's Louis Vuitton shoes. Ramona is drunk and crying. Jill is apologizing to everyone. Sonja moons the camera and it's not censored. And new girl Cindy Barshop looks like she fits in very well with the entire motley crew.
