Meet the Real Most Interesting Man in the World
Originally posted 07/02/2009 07:05AM
He's called the Most Interesting Man in the World, the debonair Renaissance man in those Dos Equis radio and TV ads with the outrageous one-liners: His enemies list him as their emergency contact number; he doesn't stick with just flour or corn, but switches freely between the two; he's the only man to have aced the Rorschach test.
But who is he, really? In an exclusive interview, PEOPLE got to know the man behind the beard. His name is Jonathan Goldsmith, he's an actor and businessman originally from New York City, and while the Spanish accent is fake, he really is very interesting.

Speidi Returns to I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here!
Originally posted 06/23/2009 06:55PM
It's a series with emotional landmines as potent as tarantula cocktails and crocodile-filled obstacle courses. And on Wednesday, NBC's I'm a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! ends its three-week run when one star will be crowned the ultimate King, or Queen, of the Jungle.
Challenges notwithstanding, the celebrity survivor will also have to stomach the return of former contestants Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, who landed in Costa Rica on Tuesday, as well as Janice Dickinson and Daniel Baldwin, who are also set to return to the jungle.
Watching it all go down in fancy high heels has been co-host Myleene Klass, herself a runner-up of Britain's I'm a Celebrity… in 2006. "Where else are you going to see celebrities without their makeup, without their support network, without luxuries, just showing us who they really are?" Klass tells PEOPLE.

Kate Gosselin on Divorce: 'Jon Left Me No Choice'
Originally posted 06/22/2009 08:00PM
The wait is over – and so is the marriage.
With an hour-long special broadcast Monday night, Jon and Kate Gosselin, parents of eight young children and stars of the TLC reality show Jon & Kate Plus Eight, publicly announced that they will separate on the same day they filed for divorce in a Pennsylvania court.
"Over the course of this weekend, Jon's activities have left me no choice but to file legal procedures in order to protect myself and our children," Kate said in a statement Monday night. "While there are reasons why it was appropriate and necessary for me to initiate this proceeding, I do not wish to discuss those reasons at this time, in the hope that all issues will be resolved amicably between Jon and myself. As always, my first priority remains our children."

TLC is promising a big announcement on Monday night's episode of Jon & Kate Plus 8, but a relaxed Jon Gosselin, taking a break while running errands near the family's house in Wernersville, Pa., told PEOPLE Monday night's episode "is just like any other episode to [him]."
Jon left the house in the family's big blue van around 9:45 a.m. Monday – without the kids – and went to Starbucks, a UPS store and then a supermarket. After he emerged with groceries, Gosselin, 32, answered a few questions from reporters.

Daniel Baldwin Rants About Janice Dickinson
Originally posted 06/12/2009 06:25PM
Big, hairy spiders? Gooey trees? Man eating insects? No problem, says Daniel Baldwin. But dealing with supermodel Janice Dickinson? Now that's scary.
Baldwin, 48, the latest cast-off from NBC's I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here! was still ranting about Dickinson when he spoke with reporters Friday morning hours after leaving the Costa Rican jungle.
"Janice Dickinson is undereducated and over-medicated," fumed Baldwin. "I struggle with people who have that sense of entitlement. Like Spencer and Heidi [Pratt], she [thinks] being annoying will keep her on the show. She urinated in the camp rather than walk an extra 25 steps, she stole food and lied about it... It's almost a sociopath's behavior."
