Once again, the ladies were all the buzz this week, as Jon Gosselin's two Kate's and a Hailey hit the media circuit in a big way and Miley Cyrus bumped and grinded her way into yet another scandal—don't worry, there's a little Brad Pitt sprinkled in, too.

Hey, did everyone hear about the preggo E! reality star?

1. No, not Kendra! In what can only be classified as ridiculously perfect timing (hello, the same week as the premiere of her new show Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami?), Kourtney Kardashian announced that she is expecting her first child with on-again boyfriend, Scott Disick. The news came as a shock to all since most of the focus earlier in the week had been on Kourt's same-sexcapades in the Florida heat. So how did it happen? She forgot to take the pill, of course! Who wouldn't announce that to the world? Everything is coming up roses for the soon-to-be-reality mama though, as the entire Kardashian clan is thrilled about Kourtney's little bun in the oven.

2. Gosselin mania was in full force, too, as all of the "loves" of Jon's life talked—and talked, and talked—about what's really going down. First Jon dissed rumored girlfriend Kate Major after her tell-all interview with E! News, simply saying: ""I'm happy that she's out of my life." She, of course, fired back, insisting that the two were romantically involved and calling him out: "He needs to man up and tell the truth." Then O.G. Kate Gosselin went on her own press tour, refuting infidelity claims and wiping away tears when asked about her deteriorating marriage. Next, she shows up at the house during Jon's scheduled time with the kids and the cops become involved in the scuffle. Next up? Actual girlfriend Hailey Glassman speaks out: "I'm not some fame whore." We shall see...

Summit Entertainment

3. New Moon mania continues to rise, with the long-awaited trailer debuting in theaters and a Robert Pattinson-less Entertainment Weekly cover hitting newstands everywhere. R. Pattz and Kristen Stewart were spotted having a romantic date night (just don't ask Jennie Garth about it). Has Twilight caused the whole "vampire" thing to jump the shark? We ponder that quandary.

4. The Teen Choice Awards are a fun time had by all, especially the Twilight crew who enjoyed all of the wins, once again. Still, the best part of the night had to be funnylady, Kathy Griffin, showing up with Bristol Palin's baby daddy, Levi Johnston, on her arm. They even posed for cameras like a real couple!

5. Little Miss Miley had a tough go of it at this year's awards. Her Party in the U.S.A. performance was cute and catchy, until the girl had to go and straddle a stripper pole. (Seriously, why are we even surprised at this point?) Following that display, someone dubbed Miley "the new Britney"...and "slutty." We're not sure which is worse.

6. Vanessa Hudgens definitely had it the worst at those darned Teen Choice Awards due to the lack of restraint by one funnyman (?), Dane Cook. After more nudie pics were leaked, Vanessa braved the TCA crowd only to have Cook call her out in front of everyone onstage. Thankfully, Baby V has some good friends to back her up.

7. We couldn't get away from Brangelina this week, with the duo hitting the premieres of both Inglorious Basterds and The Time Traveler's Wife. So what outrageous things did we learn about the insanely gorgeous pair? Deets about their sexcapades, of course. They really couldn't stop talking about how randy they are.

8. In your everyday American Idol, Posh Spice, Paula Abdul news, Victoria Beckham will not be a permanent fixture on the reality competition and Paula is in the works to join Ugly Betty for a bit. For some reason those two castings seem a little mixed up.

9. More and more Michael Jackson news breaks everyday. This week? Search warrants, defense strategies, paternity rumors, oh my!

10. Baby boys and boy parts? For the last time, Lady GaGa is a lady—hermaphrodite rumors be damned. On the farthest end of the opposite side of the spectrum, Jennifer Hudson and Elisabeth Hasselbeck both welcomed adorable little boys. Yay!
