Buckle Up! New Celebrity Apprentice Cast Announced
At least whatever sanity is lost is charity's gain.
Donald Trump and NBC have unveiled the latest crop of (if not A-listers, then at least folks who are on some list or other) famous types who will compete for cash for their favorite charities and—if all goes according to plan—start judging and hating on one another right from the get-go on the fifth installment of Celebrity Apprentice.
Here's the run-down on the 18 [feel free to insert your own Trumpian superlative] stars along for the ride:
Ditch, Do or Marry Round Up! Funny Men Make Great Hubbys!
It's time for another roundup of your favorite game—just admit it!
Of course we're talking about Ditch, Do or Marry! You told us (pretty vocally, must add) who you wouldn't want to touch with a 10-foot pole, who you'd want to spend a night of horizontal dancing with and who you'd want to bring home to the parentals.
So here are your results regarding men who tickle your funny bone, rich trophy-wives of the "real" variety and homo-lovin' DILFs:
Morning Bitch-Back! Are Gay Dads Dubious Too?
Dear Ted:
Was the gay daddies edition even serious? Ditch Clay because, well, he's Clay friggin' Aiken. The next two were a little tough, but do NPH, because he's so good at playing straight I figure he can act for a few hours with me. Then marry Ricky because any man who wants kids enough to adopt as a single parent, gay straight or otherwise, is good enough for me. Now here's the real question: Do any of these guys have Vices that, now that they're out and proud, are still lingering in the background?
—Katie
Dear Daddy Dearest:
Disagree, K. I actually think this par-tick game was quite tough, but only because of two players. I'm with you on ditchin' Clay, tho I know there are some babes who are totally smitten with his Southern comfort. But do you do bon-bon-licious Ricky Martin or gorgeous Neil Patrick Harris? And both DILFs are worthy of a ring, so which do you wed? It's a tough call! As for Vices, I've always said being gay isn't the Vice—it's the naughty stuff they do with other guys, especially when they're on the D.L.
Dear Ted:
How about a tip for Nikki Reed's Vice? Is it from her pre-Twilight days? She seems nice, and I can hardly believe she's so young! She and Evan Rachel Wood sure seem to have been around forever, just like Kirsten Dunst and Dakota Fanning.

Play Ditch, Do or Marry: Gay Daddy Edition!
It's time for a hump day treat: another round of our fave game, Ditch, Do or Marry!
And since we're all about celebrating pride this week, we thought this par-tick round would focus on some of the dude-lovin' dudes. But not just any hottie homo—no, this round we're focusing on DILFs (i.e. dads you'd like to...ya know).
Yep, it's time to decide which daddy you'd love to wed and which you want to hit the road. Between...
Clay Aiken Finally Addresses Recording Future...Do You Buy It?
For Clay Aiken, the measure of a man apparently isn't in album sales.
The American Idol alum is rethinking the future amid rumors that his current label, Universal-based Decca Records, has dropped him from its roster following his fifth album, Tried and True, which hit stores last summer.
Bitch-Back! Is Justin Getting Too Big for His Bieber?
Dear Ted:
I've been wondering about Justin Bieber...I by no means have Bieber fever, but I think he is a bit adorable and seems like a good kid. Everyone seems to be out to get him, and I just want to know if he has come down with a bad case of diva-tude or is he just being a typical 16-year-old boy (with obvious perks!).
—Ali
Dear Breaking Biebs:
The former. But then again, can you blame the little guy for having a giant ego when he's the hottest tween sensation since the JoBros? Plus his diva demands aren't that drastic...yet. I mean, he's not exactly pulling a Taylor Lautner or anything. But give him time. He's still pretty young, remember.
Dear Ted:
When are we going to see Fake à La Ferocity and her equally evil partner get their karmic justice?
—J
Bitch-Back! Does Anyone Have Dirt on Ellen Page?
Dear Ted:
What's the deal with Ellen Page. You hinted not too long ago that she and Joseph Gordon-Levitt would pretty much never get together. I always thought that she was bisexual after that Saturday Night Live skit she did two years ago. She's one of the few actresses that I can't seem to get a lot of gossip on. Thanks!
—Ashley
Dear Paging Dr. Dish:
You don't hear much gossip on this Indie gal because there isn't any. Not to say that she doesn't have any secrets, she sure does, but they're nothing that would exactly shock anyone. As for her and JGL, we'll they're more pal potential than romance for no other reason than a lack of offscreen chemistry.
Dear Ted:
It's getting harder and harder to take anything you say on your B.V.s seriously, since you contradict yourself so many times—it's like you can't even keep track of the stuff you make up. Crotch Uh-Lastic, for that matter. In his second B.V. you said Crotch was doing just like Toothy and selling his fauxmance to the media. Now, you say Crotch doesn't play the beard game. So, which one is it? Maybe you're saying that he used to have a beard but decided not to do that anymore? So can we assume Crotch doesn't have a (fake or not) GF right now? I hope you can explain that. Otherwise, I'll just take that you are full of BS, after all, and I've been naive all this time.

American Idol fans, get ready to party like it's 2003!
Season-two finalists Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard—does it even matter anymore which one was crowned the winner?—are heading out on a 17-city North American tour. And they're calling it "Timeless" because, well, it totally is.
The two begin reliving their glory days July 23 in Asheville, N.C., and are plotting numerous duets and covers of classics from the past five decades.
"I couldn't ask for a better tour mate," Clay says in a statement. "To be able to share the stage with him again is so exciting...He inspires me daily and I think that respect and admiration will truly be reflected in our show."
"It is truly a blessing and an honor to be on the stage with my friend," Ruben says.

When Ricky Martin announced yesterday he was gay, the info wasn't the surprising news, but the fact that he went public with it was.
The Latin superstar's sexuality was one of those things most people assumed. For years, there were rumors, tabloid reports and, from time to time, even paparazzi shots of him with very hot mystery men, fueling the gay fire.
But Martin isn't the first to not exactly shock us with the gay revelation. Read on for our list of the top least surprising Tinseltown coming-outs…
