Pippa Middleton Steps Out for First Time Since Gungate Incident
INFphoto.com
Where's that grin, Pippa Middleton?
The Duchess of Cambridge's sister didn't seem to be in a chipper mood when she was spotted in Central London going to the Rosano Ferreti Hair Spa, and we think we know why the 28-year-old was not being her smiley self.
Pippa Middleton Takes Paris: Five Things to Know About Gun-Flashing, Party-Hopping, Man-Filled Stay
Philippa Charlotte Middleton, you've got some serious explaining to do.
Starting with just how exactly she managed to inherit all of the family's fun-loving, party-hopping genes leaving big (serious) sis Kate Middleton with the burden of propriety.
Clearly securing her legacy as the Harry to Kate's Wills, Pippa Middleton made quite the media splash this week when she took Paris by storm, attending a spectacularly, well, spectacle-filled costume party, riding shotgun during the now infamous (fake) weapon brandishing, had her honor defended by nobility, and, if the tabloids are to be believed, got hot 'n' heavy with a French socialite.
Ooh la la! We may not know how she managed to do it all, but we do know what she managed to do—herewith, the five things you really need to know about Pippa's decadent stay in gay Paris:
Pippa Middleton's Parisian Party Host Apologizes for Gungate: "She Did Not Find It Funny"
FameFlynet Pictures
Pippa Middleton has been under the gun to make amends for her royal scandal du jour. And it looks like her white knight has come in a somewhat unlikely form: not the (toy) gun brandisher himself, but rather Pippa's Parisian party host.
Viscount Arthur de Soultrait apologized today for the brief but massive foray into common sense-lacking that saw his friend brandish a fake albeit realistic looking firearm at paparazzi while joyriding with the royal sister-in-law in Paris last weekend.
In addition to offering up a mea culpa for the ill-fated action, the French artistocrat also did his best to defend Pippa's honor, distancing Kate Middleton's tabloid-targeted sister from blame for the now international incident.

Things got messy for beauty queen Rima Fakih when she was arrested in December for drunk driving in Detroit's Highland Park.
But today the former Miss USA pleaded no contest to driving while visibly impaired, the Detroit Free Press reports. (Her driving while intoxicated charge was reduced to a driving while visibly impaired charge during a plea deal struck in January.)
Her reaction to the news?
Scarlett Johansson Laughs Off Sex Shop Using Her Image: I Have "Legions of Mexican Fans"

Scarlett Johansson is sexy all right, but somehow we doubt she wants to be the face of a sex shop.
A sultry photo of the actress is on the business cards of the VIP adult superstore known in Calexico, Calif., which is near the Mexican border. On the cards, excerpted by TMZ, Johansson wears a black bra, unbuttoned white shirt and tiny shorts. The text surrounding her image advertises sex toys, lotions and various adult products in Spanish.
While the store manager claimed the store's owner unwittingly got ScarJo cards after ordering business merchandise with "a girl" on it, the actress herself is laughing it off.
Jenna Talackova's Attorney Gloria Allred Fires Back at Donald Trump: "Stop Being Focused on Genitals"
Wait, we thought everything was OK now?
After a heated controversy surrounding Canada's transgender beauty queen Jenna Talackova's disqualification from the Miss Universe competition for not being a "naturally born female," we learned that Donald Trump decided to revise the organization's policies and allow transgender women to enter and compete.
But even with all that squared away, he brought up another point during tonight's 20/20 that didn't sit well with the others...

Scandal Scoop from Shonda Rhimes: Don’t Let the Premiere Fool You! Why This Show Gets Crazy Good
ABC/DANNY FELD
Confession: When I watched the first episode of Shonda Rhimes' new ABC series Scandal, I liked it. But it didn't blow me away. And then I got my hands on screeners for the rest of the season and two to three episodes in…Kaplewey! I. Was. In. Pieces.
This new drama series, about a professional scandal "fixer" Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington), gets so dark, gritty, shocking and twisty, it reminds me of the best episodes of 24—coupled with the kind of romantic tension that makes you scream at your TV (I did).
I chatted with Shonda herself about what's ahead, and the most important thing she wants you to know is…

It looks like Jenna Talackova still has a shot at being crowned Miss Universe 2012.
The 23-year-old was disqualified from the competition last week because she is a transgender woman, but the Miss Universe Organization has reversed its decision and is working with GLAAD to update its policies on such issues.

Carson Daly's pilot joke sure crashed and burned.
The Voice host has apologized for an ill-conceived crack he made on his morning radio show today about what went down Tuesday on Jet Blue Flight 191, when a group of passengers subdued a pilot who was having a midair meltdown.
"This morning on my radio show I attempted to make fun of myself & offended others by mistake. I sincerely apologize," Daly tweeted.
So, what was the big attempt at self-deprecation?
