Ellen Tortures With Ease on American Idol
Ellen DeGeneres' first episode of American Idol could have been her 100th. She fit right in.
Not only did the show wisely not dwell on her too much, leaving the emphasis on the terrifying "sudden death" round of Hollywood week, but she wasn't too funny, either.
Meaning, we hope, there's plenty left in the tank for future rounds.
But while DeGeneres looked very serious in her reading glasses and crushed dreams like a grizzled veteran, she still brought some much-needed funny to the proceedings—an element Idol has always possessed, only this time it was coherent and intentional!
Not that Paula Abdul wasn't missed...

The quest to determine whether Beyoncé has a half-brother is picking up steam.
The Grammy-winning diva's dad, Matthew Knowles, who was a target of a paternity suit in October, exclusively tells E! News that he will "certainly" submit to a paternity test when asked.
"I know about as much as you do," he says. "Last week, they said it was a girl; this week they said it was a boy. We do have a court date, but none of that means anything until DNA testing is done.

Who says you can't go home again?

The Bachelor's Chris Harrison: It's Definitely Not Over with Ali!
ABC/GREG ZABILSKI
We have uncovered the real reason Ali went AWOL on The Bachelor last night: The show was trying to save a little cashola by docking pay from host Chris Harrison.
"It's in my contract that they have to pay me every time I say 'This is the final rose,'" Chris just told me over the phone. "No rose ceremony, no pay."
Of course, he's joking. (Sorry, all you consipracy lovers!) But Chris did give the scoop on why Ali left, whether she'll be back (hint: yes!) and if there's any hope for Jake and Ali...
Did Air Force Reserve Rip Off White Stripes for Super Bowl Ad?
The White Stripes are declaring war.
Jack and Meg White posted a scathing statement on their website accusing the Air Force Reserve of ripping off the band's hit "Fell in Love With a Girl" for a Super Bowl commercial.
"We believe our song was rerecorded and used without permission of the White Stripes, our publishers, label or management," the duo said. "The White Stripes takes strong insult and objection to the Air Force Reserves presenting this advertisement with the implication that we licensed one of our songs to encourage recruitment during a war that we do not support."
The Air Force Reserve responded to the allegation in a characteristically military way—by kicking it down the chain of command.

Beyoncé Tastes the Terror of Today
You don't get to the top of the music industry without guts, strength and fearlessness, attributes Beyoncé Knowles has in abundance.
Yet even the grand songstress is a feeble fawn in the headlights when confronted by the horrifying Hydra tag team of Hoda and Kathie Lee, spewing Grammy facts and figures.
Wow, these two should've been put on grill duty in Gitmo.

It's all about babies today!
