Kris Allen says there's no need to worry about Adam Lambert after his split from boyfriend Drake LaBry.
"He's doing good," the American Idol winner, 24, told us yesterday at the People's Choice Awards nominations announcement. "He's obviously not completely happy about it, but I think it was just something that needed to happen."
As for any competition brewing between Allen and Lambert...
Just Call America's Next Top Model's Miss J "Daddy"!
Typically, the only bombshells on The Tyra Banks Show come in the form of leggy models and busty babes.
We doubt anyone was expecting America's Next Top Model judge "Miss J" Alexander to drop one when he appeared on the show yesterday. Especially not this one.
"I'm a dad," he revealed.
However, his 7-year-old son, Boris, is not his child biologically.
Both he and his ex-boyfriend, Alex, were approached to help a woman get pregnant.
"A French lesbian had asked if we would be sperm donors," he said. "So we thought, 'OK, you want me to do you?' And she was like, 'Oh, I'm not that talented.' So I said, 'OK fine.' So we did a little test tube."
After three tries, the woman gave birth to light-skinned Boris, who is clearly Alex's son.
"I said, 'Oh, Lord. Thank God. No child custody hearings—he's yours," Miss J laughs, although he is still an active part of the child's life.

Derek Hough: I'm Not Gay, Though I Almost Played One on TV
ABC/ADAM LARKEY
It's good to know that Derek Hough can laugh at all those rumors that he's gay.
So much so that he was thisclose to playing a gay character "in a funny little scene" with Courteney Cox on her new hit ABC series Cougar Town. Unfortunately, he couldn't do it because of his Dancing With the Stars schedule.
"It would have been perfect," Hough said. "With all the rumors going around, I thought it would be really funny because it's just not true. But I was like, you know what? If that's what you want to see."
Not so funny, however, was Hough's recent battle with the flu...

Rosie O'Donnell Thinks She and Angelina Jolie Almost Happened

How does one choose between Brad Pitt and Rosie O'Donnell?
We're not sure we know (or want to know), but at some point Angelina Jolie was faced with that conflict. At least, according to Rosie.
The talk-show icon blabbed to Howard Stern on Sirius XM radio about a time before she was married to Kelli Carpenter and Angelina had tied the knot with Billy Bob Thornton. A romance, she claimed, was a-bloomin'.
"She gave me her phone number," Rosie said. "We talked on the phone two or three times, but that was that. There was a tentative plan to have dinner that never came through."
Fear got the best of Rosie and she wasn't able to seal the deal.
"I was a little afraid of her," she said. "She's scary in a sexual kind of way. I have dreams about her a lot still."
We'd say TMI, but our jaws are still on the floor.
The erstwhile Lara Croft isn't the only bone the flower picked during the interview. She also offered some insight into the rocky state of affairs of her marriage, as well as her thoughts on the relationship between Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King.
T.R. Knight: Anatomy of Breakup

Rosie O'Donnell isn't the only one this morning whose love is on the rocks.
Sources confirm that T.R. Knight and his boyfriend of about two years, Mark Cornelsen, have called it quits.
"It's amicable," one source says of the breakup, which was first reported by In Touch. "It was just a normal breakup. It just ran its course."
When exactly things fell apart is unclear because…
Watch Out, Balki: It's Risky Business to Accuse Tom Cruise of Homophobia

Turns out Balki Bartokomous is kinda bitter.
Tom Cruise was not only the "biggest bore on the face of the earth" on the set of Risky Business, according to Bronson Pinchot, but Cruise, who was then of pre-superstar status, also "made constant, constant unrelated homophobic comments" to him.
"It was like, 'It's a nice day, I'm glad there are no gay people standing here.' Very, very strange," said Pinchot in a lengthy interview with the A.V. Club. The 50-year-old actor made his feature-film debut in Risky Business but is far better known for playing goat-herder Balki on the sitcom Perfect Strangers and gallery receptionist Serge in Beverly Hills Cop—and, of course, for his stint on The Surreal Life.
Pinchot also had singular memories of Denzel Washington ("one of the most unpleasant human beings I've ever met in my life"), Eddie Murphy ("very low spirited, low energy" on the set of Beverly Hills Cop III) and Bette Midler (she was "such a bitch" to First Wives Club director Hugh Wilson).
Tom Hanks, however, is "a wonderful and genuine and lovely and down-to-earth person." (A likely story.)
But did Cruise, who if not always the picture of gravitas is at least reputed to be a real salt-of-the-earth type, really make nasty comments to his costar 26 years ago?

Jared Leto Gets Fired Up Over Gay Marriage
What's got Jared Leto starting fires these days?
Gay marriage.

Hayden Costar: More Girl-on-Girl Kissing, Please!
NBC
Kissing Hayden Panettiere on Heroes didn't come as a complete shock to Madeline Zima.
"I had an inkling," Zima told us yesterday at Hollywood Life's Hollywood Style Awards at the Armand Hammer Museum in L.A. "I did always play my character a little bit with some kind of secret—whether it was that or something else still remains to be seen."
So what was it like locking lips with Claire-Bear on the episode airing tonight? Mostly business as usual...
Top Chef's Ashley: Prop 8 and the Wedding Challenge
Trae Patton / Bravo
Top Chef contestant Ashley Merriman is not against cooking at straight weddings.
So what was her beef with this season's wedding challenge?
It was all about timing. "My objection was more about the decision to have this challenge at the height of Proposition 8," Merriman tells me.
"It was not about the bachelor and bachelorette. I don't have any problems with them. When somebody comes and wants to propose in my restaurant I'm the first person putting the ring in the chocolate cake."
Fortunately, it wasn't her politics that got her eliminated on last night's show. Read on for the first of my weekly Top Chef exit interviews with the season's 10 remaining cheftestants.

Michael Douglas is getting ready to sing and kiss…Matt Damon.
Mr. Douglas told me he's going to try real hard to do his own singing in the upcoming Liberace movie, in which he stars as the late showman with Damon playing his real-life much younger lover.
"I got his books and I got his tapes," Douglas told me this morning at Michael Kors' Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week show in NYC. "Right now, we're doing Wall Street 2 until the end of the year, so [the Liberace film] is scheduled for next summer."
As for duplicating Liberace's musical chops, Douglas revealed…
