Oprah To (Maybe) Guest Star On 30 Rock
- Oprah! In final talks! To be on 30 Rock! She'll play herself in scenes with Tina Fey's character Liz Lemon. Will Arnett and Jennifer Aniston are also making appearances on the show this fall. The bad news? The season premiere doesn't air until October 30. [E!]
- Paris Hilton has "manipulated" the Toronto Film Festival to get more publicity for a documentary about herself. There were three screenings of the film Paris, Not France; now there is only one, because that will "create more buzz." Hasn't her moment in the spotlight come and gone? [Page Six]
- The trailer for Lindsay Lohan's new movie, Labor Pains, is online. LL plays a publishing assistant who avoids getting fired by pretending to be pregnant. It looks almost barely funny. [People]

Star Jones Keeps The Bitches In Check On Bad Girls Club Reunion
Last night's Bad Girls Club reunion was so awesome. Even if you never watched the series, you'd still be mesmerized by the sheer insanity of grown women wanting to throw down over every little thing, hurling insults about each other's weight, sexual activity, and yes, mamas. Even Star Jones, who hosted the special and pointed out the groups "mean girls' lunch table" mentality, couldn't resist getting caught up in the drama, and eventually ended up taking sides, although she said she wouldn't. Star handled her shit though, and she was actually really funny. Now if they could just get Tanisha to moderate a View reunion smack down! Clip above.

Lindsay Sings: "If I Want It, I Get It. Now."
- Synth! Dance beat! Breathy vocals! It's Lindsay Lohan's new track, "Bossy." And guess what? It doesn't totally suck. "Stop touching me without permission," she sings. "I'm jut a little bossy. If I want it, I get it — Now." Ha! Like that fur coat? But is the song as good as Kelis's "Bossy"? Well, LL's track was written by Ne-Yo. Lemme know what you think. I may have to listen again. And Again. And then one more time, with rollerskates on. I'm so embarrassed. [People]
- Meanwhile: Lindsay's dad Michael is pissed that the Mingling Moms named ex-wife Dina a "Top Mom." He says: "Are you kidding?

She comes stumbling out of Butter at 3:15 a.m. with bloodshot eyes and a red runny nose, yelling 'Oh, [bleep],' when she saw the paparazzi." Meanwhile, Dina says: "He's on a mission to destroy me." Wow, this kind of stuff must be great for the kids to hear. [Page Six]

Barbara Walters On Oprah: "Star Jones Was So Obese She Could Barely Walk Onto The View Set"
Barbara Walter's memoir Audition hit shelves today, and she appeared on Oprah to talk about it. Babs has spilled her guts into this book, and it's a true tell-all, since she's telling every fucking thing there is to tell. She went into detail on some of it with O, namely, Star Jones (first she was fat and nice, then she got thin and annoying), Rosie O'Donnell (she has severe emotional problems and would scream at Barbara in fits of rage), her torrid 2-year affair with a married black politician (she never considered herself a mistress), her troubled adopted daughter (who was on drugs and ran away from home), and her mentally-disabled sister (whom she resented for being mentally-disabled). B. Dub said she was actually considering naming the book Sister, because her sister has been such a huge influence on her life. (Could you imagine!? Nobody would ever guess that Sister was an autobiography of a white woman knocking on 80 years old!) Clip above.

Barbara Walters Talks Shit About Former View Co-Hosts
- In her new memoir, Auditions, Baba Wawa gives the dirt on Star Jones' and Rosie O'Donnell's departures from the View; On Rosie: "The premise of 'The View' is that of a team working together, but for Rosie it was more like Diana Ross and the Supremes, as little by little she took over." [NYDN]
- The problem with Miss Jones was not just her diva behavior (though Walters et. al. were embarrassed about her fiasco of a wedding to Big Gay Al) it was that Star made her View-mates lie about her gastric bypass. Walters writes: "Joy [Behar], in particular, resented having to go along with a lie that implied all one needed to do was situps and ingest one cookie instead of two."[NYDN]
- The septuagenarian Babs is so scandalous! She also talks about her adulterous affair with Massachusetts Senator Edward Brooke, the first black Senator since reconstruction. [NYDN]
- Jimi Hendrix's sex tape? A hoax, cries the company that owns the rights to Jimi's music. Sigh. We'll always have Cynthia Plaster Caster. [Reuters]
- Marilyn Monroe's sex tape? The FBI cries fake! It's amazing how many stars can issue denials from the grave. [MSNBC]

Fergie Releases Sex And The City Theme Song; Ears Everywhere Bleed
- So. Fergie has recorded the theme song for the Sex And The City Movie and it is fucking insane. Seriously. It's a fast-paced track that uses the original instrumental music from the show, with Fergie sing-rapping lyrics like: "Shopping for labels, shopping for love... Manolo and Louis is all I'm thinking of... Emotional baggage just replace them with Dior... Let's stop chasing the boys and shop some more..." It does not appear to be a joke. You can listen to the nauseating ditty here. Just a warning: You may puke or cry or both. [People]
- Heidi Montag won't be at the White House Correspondents dinner because Spencer Pratt got involved and demanded first-class tickets for both of them — even though he wasn't invited. When he was denied, Spencer canceled Heidi's appearance because the event "wasn't A-listy enough." Meanwhile, Pamela Anderson, Ashlee Simpson, Pete Wentz, Hayden Panettierre, Claire Danes, Rob Lowe and Donatella Versace will all be there. Aren't you proud to be an American? [Page Six]
- When Ellen DeGeneres asked Ashlee Simpson,"Are you or are you not pregnant?" Ashlee said: "Well, that has been going on for quite a while. That is something that I choose personally not to discuss." In other words, yes. [People]
