It was ladies' week in Hollywood (and related environs) as real stars like Rihanna and Mariah Carey opened up on TV about serious, emotional issues; celebish types like Kate Gosselin rehashed stories we already know, but with more tears; and nonentity (in Hollywood and related environs) Nicole Forrester talked about having a one-night stand with Fergie's man.
Hey, to each her own.
Read on for your complete week in review...
Josh Duhamel's So-Called Fling? "We Had a Really, Really Good Time," Stripper Says
UPDATE: Josh Duhamel's rep continues to adamantly deny claims of an affair, telling E! News, "These allegations are nonsense."
________
Josh Duhamel seemingly put a stop to this, but it appears that Nicole Forrester is just getting started.
"We did hook up, we had lots of sex, and we had a really, really good time," the stripper and mother of two said in an exclusive interview with The Bert Show on Atlanta's Q100-FM.
"And then the next morning, when I left, you know, he kissed me on the cheek. Really sweet guy."
And a really married guy, too, of course.
Duhamel's rep has vehemently denied Forrester's story about having a one-night stand with the Transformers hottie. Mrs. Duhamel, aka Fergie, was with her hubby last night in Atlanta, where he's filming Life As We Know It.
But Forrester says she has saved text messages and "a lot of evidence" that she had a tryst with the actor.

Amidst rumors of her husband's fling with a stripper, Fergie is standing by her man...and flying to his side, joining Josh Duhamel in Georgia, where he's filming Life As We Know It with Katherine Heigl.
Just last night, she was spotted dining with Josh at Atlanta hot spot Chops Steakhouse and Seafood.
The couple is staying next door to the restaurant at the St. Regis Hotel, a manager for Chops tells E! News. Ironically, this is the same hotel where Tattletales dancer Nicole Forrester claims her affair with the married actor occurred.
Reps for both Fergie and Josh deny the incident.
A source tells E! News that Duhamel is extremely upset about the allegations, which he has roundly denied to close friends and associates. In fact, sources say he has broken down in tears numerous times since the story went public.
And while the Duchess is now on the scene, locals say Josh is usually out solo...
Duhamel: I Did Not Cheat On Fergie With Stripper

Josh Duhamel is shooting down a new supermarket tabloid story alleging he cheated on his pop-music superstar wife, Fergie, earlier this month with a stripper.
In an interview with The National Enquirer, Nicole Forrester says she and the 36-year-old Transformers hunk enjoyed a sex romp in an Atlanta hotel room while he was in the area shooting Life As We Know It, a comedy costarring Katherine Heigl, Christina Hendricks and Josh Lucas.
But Duhamel's rep insists the story is bogus...
Rise 'n' Shine: Michael Jackson's Ghost Debuts
• The Tupac-style "M.J. Lives" conspiracy theorists are already hard at work, so why shouldn't the ghost hunters? In the above clip from the tour of Neverland Ranch on Larry King Live, Michael Jackson's ghost makes its television debut. Either that, or someone walks by a window to cast that shadow (so doubtful). You be the judge!
• Is Mrs. Manhattan, Sarah Jessica Parker, moving to Brooklyn? The Sex and the City star is rumored to have picked up a home in the NYC outer borough, as well as an option for a Sexy TV series.
• Leighton Meester's body is out of control, but we already knew that.
• Josh Duhamel says he works the poles. Photos, please!
• Apparently, Kanye West knows a thing or two about khakis. He's working at Gap!
• Dear VH1: We fear Megan Hauserman's brand of crazy being our new guilty pleasure. Thanks…and, also, no thanks. Love, Rise 'n' Shine
Have Mercy! There's a supercute shot of Madonna and her newly acquired kiddo from this weekend in the Big Picture gallery!
Rise 'n' Shine: Fergie May Steal a Little of Madonna's Adoptive Thunder

• Madonna isn't the only star looking to adopt. Newlyweds Fergie and Josh Duhamel are considering expanding their family that way as well. (Check out our whole gallery of adorable adopters!)
• Despite photos of Scarlett Johansson and hubby Ryan Reynolds on the back of a motorcycle Sunday, the curve queen supposedly hates the hog and wishes her man would give it up.
• Gwyneth Paltrow supposedly feels threatened by Frieda Pinto.
• Mariah Carey drinks wine with a straw. She probably uses a fork and knife on chicken wings, too.
• Harlow Madden, the 14-month-old baby of Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, twitters!
• Dear Q-Tip-tossing photographer: How thoughtful of you to shower Zac Efron with the cotton-tipped sticks after he was snapped with ear wax buildup. Why can't more snappers be like you? Love, Rise 'n' Shine
Stars like Ashton Kutcher are on the rise, literally, in our Big Picture gallery.
Attention Faith Hill: Please Call Will.i.am!

Will.i.am is hoping for more time with Faith Hill.
The Black Eyed Peas singer told us last night he’s itching to hit the studio with the country-music queen after she performed his "America's Song" on Oprah just days before Prez Barack Obama's inauguration.
“I would love to write a song with Faith Hill,” will.i.am said before he and the Peas performed at their Peapod Foundation benefit at the Conga Room in downtown L.A. “I really hope we get a chance to do that.”
Also in the house was Peas bandmate apl.de.ap, who didn't back out of last night's show despite his recent horrible family tragedy. His half-brother Joven Pineda Deala was murdered on Tuesday in the Philippines.
Meanwhile, Fergie’s hubby, Josh Duhamel, was spotted jamming in the wings when his new wife hit the stage.
Fergie & Josh Duhamel's Wedding Photo
US Weekly
Like it or not, we've been through it all with Fergie and Josh Duhamel and their dream wedding—the working out and lingerie shopping, the joint bachelor-bachelorette party, the $1.5 million ceremony with crystal chandelier trees and finally their Dubai honeymoon.
So it seems only natural to wrap up their love story with a wedding photo (courtesy of Us Weekly). Oh, and a few more details they left out along the way, of course:
The dress was custom-made by Dolce & Gabbana; the ceremony included some nature for Josh and some bling for Fergie; as his bride walked down the aisle Josh told himself, "Keep it together, you big baby!" and Fergs got the reception started by yelling 'I'm married, bitches!" Anything else you wanted to know? Didn't think so.
Fergie & Josh's Joint Bachelor-Bachelorette Blowout
This is one way to avoid any "he fooled around with a stripper" rumors from messing up a marriage.
With their wedding just days away, Fergie and Josh Duhamel decided to commemorate the countdown to consortium by combining their respective bachelor and bachelorette parties into one on Wednesday night, with the bride-to-be's Black Eyed Peas pal, will.i.am, in attendance.
While we don't know if drinks were sipped through penis straws or whether any donkeys were harmed in the making of this shindig at the Dakota Lounge in Santa Monica, bystanders do claim the "Clumsy" singer did get, shall we say, a bit clumsy afterward.
And later, upon arriving home at about 1 a.m., what had been a party became more of a shower, literally, when Fergie's future hubby decided to keep the rest of the evening private from the paps by way of a standard garden hose.
While the photogs may have been temporarily washed out, here's hoping the couple's future together never gets washed up.
Fergie Preps for Her "Very Private" Wedding
Flynet
Where are Fergie and Josh Duhamel tying the knot this weekend? Even their nearest and dearest don't know yet.
Guests have been told they'll be given the location later this week, according to a source. And that's not the only security measure being taken. It sounds like Fergie and Josh are looking to keep photos of their nuptials out of the tabloids.
“They have asked that no one bring cell phones or cameras,” says the source.
“It is going to be a small, secluded ceremony,” another source tells E! News. “Very private, just close friends and family.”
In the meantime, how's the bride-to-be prepping for her big day?

Because big girls don't cry, does that mean Fergie isn't permitted to shed a happy tear when she and Josh Duhamel make it official?
Well, she doesn't have much more time to ponder the conundrum, because Jan. 10 is when the couple are planning to tie the knot in the Los Angeles area.
Duhamel popped the question to his "Fergalicious" sweetheart about a year ago after nearly three years of dating. The romance began when Fergie guest-starred on Las Vegas and Duhamel, who later admitted to nursing a crush on the Black Eyed Peas singer, asked her out.
