Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony put on their best "LOOK AT US" faces while leaving dinner Monday night in Los Angeles and even posed with a tiny tot!

Oh wait, we forgot to mention…..

The baby wasn't one of their own!!!

The attention-seeking couple nabbed a fellow diner's baby girl and posed outside for paps praying for a shot to be snapped.

That poor baby does not look happy!!

She's probs freaked out by Skeletor's boney hands gripping onto her!

Oprah Speaks Out!

Filed under: Oprah Winfrey

wenn52176692.jpg

After reports surfaced of several students getting suspended for sexually harassing their schoolmates in Oprah Winfrey's boarding school in South Africa, it was only a matter of time before the Big O spoke out about the latest unfortunate incident.

Oprah has just released the following statement about what happened.

She says:

"I'm disappointed that several of our students chose to disregard the school's rules. It's disheartening when any student has to be suspended or expelled and it's a process that involves serious review and consideration. We insist on maintaining a campus environment that commands mutual respect, fosters academic excellence and encourages learners to fulfill their best potential. Indiscretions resulting in disciplinary action are common in schools all over the world. Unfortunately, because of my name these common infractions place the Academy in the media spotlight."

Common infractions???

Suspending fifteen students is not very "common"!

The Real World Keeps On Going…and Going!

Filed under: Reality Television > MTV

Does anyone still watch MTV's The Real World?

Apparently it still has somewhat of a fan base as the series has just been picked up for another FOUR seasons. Oh, and they'll also be producing more episodes of The Real World/Road Rules Challenge.

Jon Murray, Real World's exec producer, said the order of extra seasons will help the show's production team out creatively. Adding, "This allows us to plan. It helps us figure out where we're going next and allows us to do some long-range thinking."

MTV programming president Tony DiSanto stated that "MTV is proud to continue our relationship with Bunim-Murray that stretches back over 15 years. With each new season, the 'Real World' franchise continues to evolve and captivate our ever-changing audience."

Only a few changes have been made to the show since it premiered in the early '90s, such as the Brooklyn season, which didn't feature any of the cast members having to get jobs. Murray added about not assigning jobs, "It's something I've been wanting to do for a while, and it's easier to do in a big metropolitan area. The season after Cancun, a location that hasn't been announced yet, I think might be like that too."

Will Real World still be around 20 more years from now? Do U still watch it?

The Hills On Ice

Filed under: Canadialand > TV News > MTV

Ready for another "unscripted" reality TV show about bored rich kids who have nothing better to do than stir up the dramz between each other?

Hang onto your indignation, because here it comes!

Peak Season "takes an unfiltered look at the lives, loves and true-life drama of a tight-knit group of twenty-somethings, coming of age in the resort town [Whistler, British Columbia] where relationships change as often as the weather. As the popular Whistler saying goes, 'You don’t lose your girlfriend, you just lose your turn.'"

From the folks at MTV Canada, CTV and Free Form Productions Inc. Peak Season goes from "a snowboarder doing everything she can to make it pro, to a scrappy outspoken bartender, to a womanizing party animal, to the Whistler imports from Australia adjusting to life on the peaks, there’s no shortage of drama when personalities collide."

And no shortage of reasons to want to tear your eyeballs out by the nerves either.

We can't wait!

Florida, Georgia, Wisconsin, Ohio and Tennessee TV Stations Refuse To Air Osbournes: Reloaded! AND MORE Ban It Too!

osbournesbanned.jpg

This is ridiculous! The show hasn't even premiered yet!

The head honchos at the Panama City Fox affiliate in Florida, WPGX, will NOT be airing the new Osbournes: Reloaded variety show.

Since when is Panama City, home to some very un-family friendly Spring Break debauchery, wholesome?????

The show was set to premiere tonight at 8:20pm CDT, with the odd timing intended to keep the viewers of American Idol watching the show instead.

But, according to the head of the station, after watching just a six-minute preview of the show, he found the episode to contain profanity and adult content and determined it was unsuitable for the time slot.

David Cavileer, WPGX General Manager, says he would have rather aired the show later in the evening.

So what's going to take the earlier time slot? That will be a wholesome and clean episode of The Simpsons.

A rep for Fox confirmed that any affiliate can pre-empt a program if it doesn't feel it's appropriate for their market.

That's effed up!

Update: A Perezcious reader tells us that at least one station in Georgia is also refusing to air the show!

Update #2: Another Perezcious reader tells us that the local Fox affiliate in Milwaukee, WI, will also not be airing the show.

Update #3: Holy cow! Yet another Perezcious reader tells us that Bill Lanesy, station manager of Cincinnati's "Fox 19" channel this morning was interviewed on a local radio show for Q102 saying that it was not appropriate to air right after the family-oriented "American Idol".

Update #4: Knoxville TN's Fox affiliate, WTNZ, is also refusing to show it as well. Simpsons re-runs instead!

Update #5: Fox 4 in Kansas City, MO is also not airing the Osbournes:Reloaded show!! They announced this morning that they will not be airing it on the 8:30 pm time spot but will instead be showing it at 1 am!!

Update #6: In Utah, Fox 13 pushed back Osbournes: Reloaded to air at 12:05 AM instead of playing right after American Idol. "They explained it on the news saying that the show isn't good to play after the 'family friendly' American Idol, a Perezcious reader tells us.

Mateo McCongayy and his too precious for words son, Levi Alves McConaughey, spent a nice father-son day together on Monday.

The two were spotted on a trip to Babies'R'us in El Lay, where they shopped for a while.

And, seriously, when you look at that face, he's just too adorable! Levi's face that is.

As of right now, though, Levi is looking a bit more like mommy, Brazilian model Camila Alves.

Check out his little cowboy boots! Someone wants to dress like daddy.

Guy Ritchie, Enjoying The Single Life

wenn52411282.jpg

Guy Ritchie is loving being an un-married man!

After his divorce from Madonna last year, Ritchie's been spotted with a whole potpourri of ladies. Most recently, he was out dining with model Elle Macpherson.

And, at a party on Monday, Guy even commented that “I’m single again – and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I’m loving it at the moment. This is what I’ve been missing.”

You wouldn't have it any other way????

Cold!!!!!

One guest at the Empire Awards after-party noted that Ritchie spent the night partying with several beauties and celebs.

The source reveals, “Guy was larking around with his mates – they were pretending to punch each other and were bopping their heads to Britney’s Womanizer. He was minding his own business, but once word spread that he was in the building he couldn’t get a minute to himself with all the ladies approaching him. He was quite a catch, making them feel at ease, asking each of their names and having a giggle with them. One girl got her mate to take a picture of her kissing him, and he was totally game.”

Guess he's not missing Madge at all - or even trying to pretend like he is!
