Rob, Kristen and Taylor's Best Talk Show Moments
Happy New Moon weekend, everyone! We gotta hand it to Rob, Kristen and Taylor, they all worked so hard over the past month to promote their little vampire movie, which culminated last night in a three-way (pre-taped) interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Now they can all go back to their normal lives. For Taylor that means pumping iron and practicing back flips all day, while Rob and Kristen lurk around the shadows of Chateau Marmont.
But before we say goodbye to the gang until they resurface for Eclipse this summer, we thought we'd put together our favorite moments from the past week's talk show appearances. (And there were a lot of them—Ellen, Conan, Leno, Letterman, Jimmy Fallon, Today, Regis and Kelly.)
Usually they’re met with the same questions: Did you ever expect this to be so big? How is this movie different from the last? OMG, fans are so crazy, right? They scream so much! How did you bulk up to play Jacob Black? Are you dating Kristen? What do you think of your Barbie? Will you throw this football? (Both Taylor and Kristen had to do that, btw.)
Still, there were some fun moments to be had and we've compiled them all right here just in case you fell asleep while Taylor talked about his workout regime for the 13th time.
Let's see what we got:
Inside Janet Jackson's AMA "Make Me" Run-Through
Janet Jackson may be about to answer the musical question, "What Have You Done for Me Lately?" A source who caught Jackson rehearsing Friday for her upcoming American Music Awards performance says the "Nasty" singer appears poised for a major comeback.
"Even though Janet was marking most of the dance moves today, the choreography is obviously very complicated, and she knew it all by heart," says the eyewitness. "She looked really strong and at ease onstage."
The singer is expected to perform her new song, "Make Me," to kick off Sunday's AMAs. We're guessing some of her routine may be cribbed from her new video for the song (see above), which features a vintage Janet vibe, including space-age shoulder pads and countless hat-tips to brother Michael.

Despite the fact that we all knew New Moon was coming and The Oprah Winfrey Show was going sometime soonish, the stars of both made major splashes this week every time they offered up even the weeniest tidbit of information for their adoring fans.
We, on the other hand, have offered up a tidal wave of info from the week gone by. You better dive in and start swimming...

From big names to big shames, it was quite a week at Soup central. Fasten your bib, and let's dig in.

Runway to Red Carpet: Is Fergie Spot On?

Who would have thought Fergie of all people could make a multi-color animal print dress look fierce?
No offense to the singer, but she doesn't always set the fashion bar very high. We would have expected her to go overboard with the matching spotted jacket, as shown on Blumarine's runway?and maybe some bizarre footwear.
Instead, she took fashion cues from Nicky Hilton and Rachel Weisz' more understated style and downplayed the '80s print with a black blazer and trendy zipper Balmain booties.
Or do you still think Fergs looks like technicolor road kill?

Chelsea Handler Blog: Assisting Jon Gosselin

Kate Major, the former Star reporter who was involved with Jon Gosselin, is attempting to sue him.
Back in June, Jon and Kate allegedly reached an "agreement" that she would work for him as his personal assistant. Kate claims Jon told her that she would earn a percentage from his accounts. Reportedly she quit her job under the assumption that she would be able to take this job.
I don't know what kind of duties a personal assistant for Jon Gosselin would have to perform, but I assume it would involve several trips to the Ed Hardy store. This alleged "contract" was written on a cocktail napkin after some sort of weekend they spent together.
I actually sort of feel sorry for Jon Gosselin. I promised to hire Chuy on a Del Taco wrapper at 3 a.m. after a magical weekend together at Sea World, and I haven't been able to get rid of him since.

Dr. Phil, Rachael Ray & More Continue Singing Oprah's Praises

Before everyone and his mother had a daytime talk show, there was Oprah Winfrey.
And the news that in less than two years there won't be an Oprah Winfrey Show as we know it has prompted an outpouring of well wishes and appreciations from those whose stars have shined a little brighter thanks to Oprah's warm glow.
"I am going to enjoy every episode between now and 2011," offered Food Network star turned syndicated talk-show host Rachael Ray, who waited until Oprah had discussed the matter "one-on-one" with her audience today to comment.
"Oprah opened the door for me to move into daytime television and I can't thank her enough. I look forward to seeing what she does next…there will only ever be one Oprah!"
Hell, even Dr. Phil McGraw knows who first put him on the map.
Beating the Crap Out Of Robert Pattinson Edward

The thought of Robert Pattinson getting hurt is just too much too bear, isn't it?
But that's exactly what could have happened if anything had gone wrong during his and Daniel Cudmore's big, violent fight scene in New Moon.
Cudmore, the Tom Brady-esque hunkster who plays Volturi vampire Felix, said some of the stunts got a little too close for comfort when he and Pattinson went at it.
"Because of my contacts, my peripheral vision was off, so there were a couple of times where I thought I was going to really hit him," Cudmore recalled at the New Moon premiere in L.A. "Luckily, I didn't."
Maybe that's why Pattinson seemed a bit nervous when they first began working on the scene...
Michael Jackson's Doc Shipped Propofol From Vegas to L.A., Records Show

Whoever said "everything leaves a paper trail" was damn right.
Dr. Conrad Murray has admitted to giving Michael Jackson the surgical anesthetic propofol to help him sleep, and police say they know where he got it.
According to additional search warrant documents released Friday, investigators found receipts in Murray's Nevada office showing that the cardiologist purchased five bottles the drug from a Las Vegas pharmacy on May 12 and had it mailed to the L.A. mansion Jackson was living in when he died a month later.
All of which should come as no shock to anyone, according to Murray's attorney.
CSI: NY Murder Mystery: Is Kim Kardashian the Killer?

Those Kardashians sure know how to drum up some mighty big ratings, so why wouldn't a prime-time series want in on the action?
E!'s reigning reality queen Kim Kardashian is working her acting chops in an upcoming episode of CSI: NY, and we were there to see all the action—including some additional guests like former MTV VJ (and Kim K. pal) Vanessa Minnillo and lead singer of Train Pat Monahan.
"Someone is murdered today, and somehow I'm involved," Kim tells us. "It's cool to get in this mindset and really be this heavily involved in such a crazy crime."
Hmmm, should we have prefaced that with a spoiler alert? Something tells us the CBS spinoff wouldn't have dished out the big bucks without giving the reality starlet a juicy role. See what the rest of the cast is saying, and decide for yourselves...
