The Salahis have known Neal for years, and apparently, Michaele had actually dated the guitarist in the past. However, they have remained good friends, and only two weeks ago the infamous couple attended a Journey concert in Virginia and hung out backstage with the band.

Also, last year, Journey performed for free at the Salahi's winery where they stayed at the couple's home for a few days.

Neal is actually married as well, and has a 7-year-old daughter with wife Amber Kozan.

There is no word yet, on what the Salahis plan to do about their marriage, if there still is one...

Cameron Diaz and Alex Rodriguez have split according to reports

September 14, 2011- The once inseparable famous couple, Cameron Diaz and Alex Rodriguez have called it quits according to reports released on Wednesday.

A source for Alex told the press that, "they broke up recently," stating the reason is because Cameron "is very busy with her career, and [Alex] has had injuries and wants to focus on his game. They're dedicated professionals."

However, reports also claim that the pair remain friendly and still care about each other.

"They have an enormous amount of respect for each other," the source continued.

Up until recently, Cameron and Alex were very devoted to their relationship and to one another as well. Cameron was said to be a great mother figure to Alex's kids and insiders claimed they were all like a close family.

While Cameron and Alex have had an up and down relationship, it had been going strong since November of last year. Cameron was often spotted carrying Alex's small daughter in her arms, or walking hand in hand with both of his girls during "family" outings.

Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake are back together according to sources

The foursome took frequent trips together, such as a recent Mexico getaway, and were often spotted going to places such as Bush Gardens in Florida.

Unfortunately, it seems as if the relationship has gone back to just a friendly one once again. Incidentally, Cameron was spotted recently during a night out with her ex, Justin Timberlake, in New York City.

September 13, 2011 - Bachelor Pad contestants Holly Durst and Michael Stagliano won the grand prize of $250,000 on the season finale of the dramatic and controversial reality show.

It took three hours for the winning couple to earn their prize on Monday's final episode of the hit ABC show. In the first hour, the remaining four couples competed on a Cirque-de-Soleil vertical wall, where one of the couples was eliminated.

Ella Nolan and Kirk DeWindt were judged as the worst performers, marking the end of the road for them on the Pad. This left Holly and Mike with Michelle Money, Graham Bunn, Vienna Girardi and Kasey Kahl to move to the finals.

Then, Holly and Michael got to choose which couple they wanted to compete with in the final hour. After some hard decision-making, the pair chose Michelle and Graham, honoring the friendship they had developed during the show.

Rumor confirmed: Ben Flajnik is officially the next 'Bachelor'

Before the other 14 eliminated contestants voted on which couple they wanted to win, they got to talk about their experiences on Bachelor Pad. Jake Pavelka got to say his peace once more, while Vienna and her boyfriend Kasey continued to look like mean fools throughout all the clips that were shown of them during the show.

But, surprising everyone, Kasey actually got teary eyed and said he was disgusted at himself fro acting like that, genuinely apologized to Jake for his behavior. After doing so, he got a very evil, dirty look from Vienna who could not believe he'd just done that.

Then, the former Bachelorette contestant went as far as to question his relationship with Jake's ex, saying that it was not a healthy one.

"This is not the type of relationship I want to be in," Kasey said as a very concerned Vienna looked on in shock...

Another big surprise that took place during the finale was a previously taped engagement between Holly and Blake Julian, who apparently fell in love during their months together at the Bachelor mansion.

After all the drama was said and done, the contestants placed their votes, giving the majority to Holly and Mike. But it didn't end there; both winners had to go into a room and either pick "Share" or "Keep".

If they both picked "Share" they got to split the money, if both picked "Keep", either one got zip. But if one picked 'Keep", that person would get the whole $250,000 for themselves.

So, for a happy ending, both Holly and Michael chose to "Share" and they got to split their winnings!

Jon Gosselin tells his ex Kate 'reality TV is not a career - get a simple life'


September 8, 2011 - Ex reality star Jon Gosselin tells his ex-wife Kate Gosselin that "reality TV is not a career" and to "get a simple life."

In a recent interview with RumorFix.com, Jon said that he has some advice for his ex Kate after she said she was concerned for the future of her family.

"Reality TV is not a career. Get back to a normal life," Jon said, "a simple life."

Apparently, Kate is very worried as to what she will do to provide for her eight kids now that her reality show, Kate Plus 8 has been canceled.

The Pennsylvania single mom has said that after so many years doing television work, she doesn't think she can do anything else, and would not be able to go back to being a nurse like she was before.

Jon, however, said that he's doing just fine working as a computer support engineer and leading a normal life. His home is much smaller than Kate's, but the kids have just as much fun when they are at his place.

But, when the cancelation of her show was announced, Kate claimed that she could do some behind-the-scenes producing work and remained hopeful she could still do something in television.

TLC cancels Kate Gosselin's TV show, 'Kate Plus 8'

"As is very typical for me, I am choosing to see the positive in this situation and I am excited to consider the many more invigorating opportunities that may come my way." Kate Twitted, "I poured my entire self into the last six years of Kate + 8 and I can't wait to have the chance to challenge myself again with future endeavors!"

However, in a recent interview with People magazine, Kate admitted that she is unsure about what her future holds, "I'm really scared," she said, "I'm freaking out. Big time."

Kate said she'd do her best to do keep her big mansion in Pennsylvania and keep the kids at their current school, but that "there are no guarantees in life for anyone."

The last episode of Kate Plus 8 airs September 12 on TLC.

August 25, 2011 - David Arquette will be showing his dance moves this fall when he'll be making a stint on Dancing With the Stars, sources claimed on Thursday.

As reported by TMZ, David was seen going to the dance studio to meet with his pro-dance partner. Sources told the gossip website that the Scream star will be partnering up with Kym Johnson.

Jake Pavelka's elimination to be shown on the next 'Bachelor Pad' episode

This should be a good way for David to go back into the public eye in a positive way, after a very public split from his wife Courteney Cox.

The actor has been to rehab, was seen partying with drinks and girls, and gave various interviews where he claimed the split with Courteney was his own fault. Courteney herself said that she still loves David, but being married to him is like taking care of another child.

The couple have remained friends and are co-parenting their small daughter, Coco. They have not filed for divorce yet, and there is no word whether they will get back together as a couple.

Ben Flajnik to be the next 'Bachelor', sources confirm

The cast for Dancing With the Stars will be officially announced next Monday during the Bachelor Pad between 8:00 - 10:00 p.m. on ABC.
