Good news for Elton John. It seems our poppa has fully recovered after being diagnosed with a serious case of E. Coli a few weeks ago and having to cancel several performances.

Elton was treated at a London hospital and released the first week of November.

And, now, after getting over the flu and the E. coli infection, John is heading back to work!

Elton's rep says he's "feeling much better" and is ready to attend his Elton John AIDS Foundation's An Enduring Vision tonight in New York City.

And get ready for a night full of big names as Anderson Cooper is set to host the event and Sharon Stone and former President Bill Clinton will be honored.

Glad to see Elton's back to work - and doing good!

Okay, before we start, let's make one thing clear: Former President Bill Clinton did not have sexual relations with this woman. And this time, it's for real! (Though it also makes the story far less interesting.)

But, he did get a little friendly with one of his former female aides, Stacy Parker Aab, who at the time was only 26.

She recalls in her new book, Government Girl: Young and Female in the White House, (because of course there is a book about it!), that during a trip to Okinawa, Japan, for the G8 Summit in 2000, the President asked her to meet him in his hotel room. She explains that he invited her out to the balcony where he gave her a hug that "lingered just a little too long to be paternal."

That's it?! That's your Bill Clinton story?! He didn't try to cop a feel? No sweet dirty talk nothings into your ear?

Well, that is just BORING! Why bother writing a book if that is all you got on the guy? For all you know, the "lingering" could have meant he fell asleep on you! He had a lot of things to keep track of: his wife, his mistress, the country!

Say what you will about Bill, but he was a damn fine President. A pig, but a damn fine President.

Good luck getting that book sold, hun!

While attending the Clinton Global Initiative Thursday, Poppa Brad Pitt was honored by the US Green Building Council for all he's done with his Make It Right foundation to rebuild New Orleans.

Poppa Pitt hopes that his sustainable housing project will pave the way for more people to consider an eco-friendly building solutions. “We can no longer tell ourselves that implementing this technology is too complex a problem because it’s just been proven on this little spot on the map.”

Out of the 150 homes planned, so far only 13 have been built, but residents are already seeing the benefits with the average electricity bill being only $35.

Next up for the Future Design Fellow?

Brad's foundation is already working on the next stage of the project which will include eco-friendly duplex designs.

He may still have that awful beard, but we're willing to deal with it for a little while longer because of all the good work he does!

David Letterman knows how to rake in viewers: Get a President on the air!

He recently had our current esteemed leader, Barack Obama, stop by and he soared in the ratings.

Well, Tuesday night The Late Show welcomed guests Lebron James and former President Bill Clinton.

It killed!

The Late Show averaged 5.15 million viewers and was the most-watched Tuesday airing of the show in a premiere week since 1995.

There aren't that many decent ones left to choose from, but keep getting Commanders in Chief on your couch and you should be good, Dave!

Wow!

The Lost Symbol, Dan Brown's latest novel since his worldwide bestseller The Da Vinci Code, has surpassed the 2 million copies sold mark since the book's release on September 15.

While The Lost Symbol hasn't come close to JK Rowling's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 8 million copies sold within 24 hours record, he has beaten former weekly sales results record holder Bill Clinton and his memoir My Life, released back in 2004.

We smell a movie in the future!

Did U buy Dan Brown's latest?

What do U think?

On Thursday, two of the world's most recognizable faces will come together in NYC for a good cause!

At the Clinton Global Initiative's annual meeting, Brad Pitt will be a guest speaker in a lecture discussing the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, titled Building A Better Future.

The seminar will offer a progress report on the status of New Orleans after being riddled by a natural disaster, plagued by poverty and failed public infrastructure investments.

Bill Clinton's organization paired with Pitt's Make it Right Foundation aims to improve the city through the construction of affordable green housing and sustainable cities in a hopeful partnership with the government, private sector and non-profits.

Can we show up to hear Bradley speak???

The rumors are false.

Chelsea Clinton and her fiancé, Marc Mezvinsky, are not getting married this year, despite the persistent rumors of wedding preparations on Chappaquiddick Island.

Political and public relations maven, Serena Torrey Roosevelt, put on her Facebook page that the wedding stage is being built for "two brides who will get married there this coming weekend on different days — not to each other). Neither of them is Chelsea."

Clinton spokesperson Matt McKenna added that he'd bet $1,000 it's not on.

Guess we would have lost our money!

According to the NY Post, preparations for wedding of Chelsea Clinton are underway!

Chappaquiddick Island is said to be the location of the rumored nuptials between the former first daughter and her investment banker boyfriend, Marc Mezvinsky.

On the property, a large stage along with a tent capable of seat hundreds is being assembled near the property's waterfront view.

All of Martha's Vineyard has been speculating about the event, yet the Clinton's have not commented, despite rumors that Bill Clinton has rented property on the island.

As for buzz that the Obama family would be attending the event, the President returned to work on Monday.

Only time will tell, but we'd bet on it!

Despite official word to the contrary, it's rumored that Chelsea Clinton's super hush-hush wedding is on and as extravagant as to be expected.

Bill Clinton's daughter is said to be marrying investment banker Marc Mezvinsky in a ceremony in August at Martha's Vineyard where, surprisingly, her ex-boyfriend Ian Klaus will act as honorary best man.

Apparently every amenity has been seen to. The guests need only to show up.

Where's our invite?
