• Jon Gosselin's manager, Mike Heller, told Perez Hilton: "Jon Gosselin is the new David and TLC is the new Goliath. Jon is empowered by his new attorney, Mark Jay Heller, to take back control of his family. Even if it means the revenue stream will be cut off. Jon's priority is family not money. THIS IS NOT A NEGOTIATION TACTIC TO get more money from TLC. We are completely cutting ties with TLC. This is something that he has been trying to do for a while now." [Perez Hilton]
• TLC responded: "We are aware of Jon Gosselin's recent statements, and remain deeply disappointed at his continued erratic behavior. He and the family were shooting as recently as last Friday, without incident, and his latest comments are grossly inaccurate, without merit and are clearly opportunistic... Despite Jon Gosselin's repeated self destructive and unprofessional actions, he remains under an exclusive contract with TLC. Direct filming of the children has been currently suspended, pending further conversations between both parents." [People]

• Father Louis Campbell, who formerly ran Mel Gibson's church, said the Traditionalist Catholic church would probably not approve of his divorce, or let him marry his pregnant girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva. Campbell said the Roman Catholic church hands out annulments too freely. "The rules have become so loose," Father Campbell said, "almost everyone [who applies] gets one." He thinks that Gibson would only be able to get an annulment from the more conservative Traditionalist Catholics if he could prove that one spouse was already married, or was coerced into the marriage. As for marrying Oksana in a Traditionalist Catholic church, that's a no too. [Radar Online]
• Kevin Jonas says the Jonas Brothers, "try to live as normal a life as we possibly can - we go out, we hang out, we shop, we go see movies, we hang out with friends." He added, "I think there's not many downsides [to fame] other than not much time to yourself possibly and people always prying into your personal life - other than that it's really amazing."

• "I'm not somebody who is going to declare either way if I'm absolutely going to or I'm absolutely not going to have children. I have no idea. I'm still young... I have an unbelievable life. In some ways, I have the life that I have because I don't have children." - Cameron Diaz [E!]
• Cameron Diaz adds, "I don't declare myself as one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood. That's other people's label. I don't think that self-deprecation is healthy for people. I think you should have a healthy relationship with yourself. And so we all have our 'up' days and we all have our 'down' days. But I'm not going to walk through this world hating myself because somebody else doesn't think I'm pretty. All I can do is know how I feel about myself." [Parade]
