Real Housewives of New Jersey: Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga Argue over 'On Display'

Originally posted 05/17/2013 06:15PM

Before the explosive new season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey premieres June 2 on Bravo, Andy Cohen is sitting down with the show's feuding stars to discuss a number of topics, including how close relationships were fractured.

Among them? Melissa Gorga's song, "On Display."

Apparently, her sister-in-law Teresa Giudice thinks the song – which Gorga wrote and recorded during her first season on the show – may be about her.

"So many people told me that," Teresa tells Cohen in a clip of Watch What Happens Live: NJ Housewives Tell All, airing Sunday (8 p.m. ET) on Bravo.

The issue is in the lyrics about being followed by paparazzi.

PEOPLE's Critic on Violence in Iron Man 3 & Similarities to Boston Bombing

Iron Man 3 & Boston Marathon Bombing: PEOPLE's Critic Weighs In About Violent Similarities

Originally posted 05/03/2013 12:55PM

A megalomaniacal terrorist unleashes a rash of bombings across the United States. Innocent people die. A nation reels in horror. No, these aren’t the latest headlines – they're the set-up of the latest Iron Man movie, already igniting controversy.

For some viewers, that plotline about a terrorist known as The Mandarin (Ben Kingsley) cuts too closely to the Boston Marathon bombing allegedly carried out by the Tsarnaev brothers earlier this month. It certainly caused a hush to fall over the crowd at the film's glitzy Los Angeles premiere at the El Capitan Theatre last week.

The film's stars addressed the issue at a press conference last week, with Don Cheadle (who plays Col. James Rhodes) stressing that the film was finished well before the bombings earlier this month, and that there is no political agenda.

"The job of this film is to entertain," he said. "That's what we're hoping to do."

Lindsay Lohan Changes Rehab Plans So She Can Smoke Cigarettes | Lindsay Lohan

Lidsay Lohan Rehab Return Kicks Up More Drama

Originally posted 05/02/2013 01:10PM

Oh, Lindsay.

Her lawyer told a judge Thursday the actress had checked into rehab for 90 days as a condition of settling a lying-to-the -police case – but as with so many things with her it wasn't that simple.

The troubled actress, 26, did in fact head for a rehab center – but not the New York facility approved by prosecutors under the terms of her plea deal in March.

Instead she went to a center in Southern California. The reason, according to TMZ.com, was that the New York program wouldn't let her smoke.

NeNe Leakes: I Wanted Porsha Stewart Off Real Housewives of Atlanta

Porsha Stewart may want to watch her back.

Since Kim Zolciak's mid-season departure from The Real Housewives of Atlanta, NeNe Leakes is the only remaining original star of Bravo's hit show.

Does that give her any sway over who's in and who's out when it comes to a sixth season? Maybe it does and maybe it doesn't, but one thing is for sure: NeNe is not afraid to let her opinions be known.

LL Cool J is glad you're talking about his controversial duet, "Accidental Racist," with Brad Paisley.

That means he's doing his job.

"Music is about ... connecting different people, and building bridges and breaking the rules," the rapper tells CNN. "If it's not compelling, and it's not complex and it's not interesting, then what are we doing it for? So I think that's the right move."

"I needed to do something that was going to be interesting like that, and shake things up, and jump out of the box," he said. "I'm really proud of it, and I hope the world hears it and enjoys it."

If the song was intended to get people talking, it's been a staggering success.

But Brad Paisley's "Accidental Racist," a duet with LL Cool J on his new album Wheelhouse, out Tuesday, is also hugely controversial.

Styled as a conversation between a white Southerner and a black New Yorker, the song features the two singers having a charged debate about race – and features Paisley's character walking into a coffee shop wearing a shirt with a Confederate flag on it.

They weren't monkeying around!

German customs officials seized a capuchin monkey from Justin Bieber last Thursday after the singer apparently attempted to bring it into the country without official permission.

"Justin Bieber brought his monkey to Germany, but had no official paperwork with him," Thomas Meister, spokesman for the customs office at the Franz Josef Strauss Airport in Munich, tells PEOPLE. "We were forced to confiscate the animal."

When customs in Munich found the monkey had been brought into the country on Bieber's private plane, they detained the star and quarantined the monkey in their facilities at the airport.

In a tweet Tuesday morning, the Canadian singer said she couldn't participate in an event held by a group with an anti-gay agenda.
