Have you ever dreamed of John Krasinski making you some hot chocolate, tucking you in and reading you a story?

OK, maybe that's just us.

But the Office star is making some dreams come true by lending his voice to Speakaboos, an online endeavor that features celebs such as Kelly Ripa, Nick Cannon, Kevin Bacon and others reading children's stories. So not only do you get a story, but a portion of the proceeds go to charity.

So check out J.Kras reading about the adventures of Aladdin. Hot chocolate not included.

Regis Looks in Crystal Ball, Sees Gosselin Reunion

Thu., Aug. 13, 2009 7:58 AM PDT by Breanne L. Heldman

Regis Philbin has magic powers that help him see the future.

When Kate Gosselin appeared on Live With Regis and Kelly, the talk-show guru predicted she would get back together with her estranged husband, Jon Gosselin.

We could express our doubts on this matter (and we're sure Jon's GF, Hailey Glassman, will do so when she sits down for her first-ever TV interview with E! News on Monday night), but we'll let Kate (that would be Kate 1.0) speak for herself.

Kelly Ripa Bulks Up Legal Forces to Take on Diet Company

Kelly Ripa is ripping a diet company for using her skinny self without permission.

But despite some online reports that she had actually filed a lawsuit against the Guaranà-peddling Internet-based company, Ripa's rep says the Regis & Kelly cohost is just in threatening mode.

"Kelly's attorney did not file a lawsuit. A lawsuit was only threatened," Ripa publicist Stan Rosenfield tells E! News. "A cease and desist letter was sent on behalf of Kelly."

She has "never used or received the product," says Rosenfield, nor had she even heard of it until informed of the ads.

Ripa's missive comes after the weight-loss firm not only suggested the former All My Children star endorsed Guaranà, but also allegedly took money for orders and failed to deliver the goods.

The cease and desist letter ordered the company to remove her name and image from all ads, websites and blogs or suffer the wrath of Ripa.

A rep for Guaranà could not be reached for comment.

Kelly Ripa and Hubby Nix Split Story, Rip Enquirer a New One

The National Enquirer has "reached a new low," according to Mark Consuelos and Kelly Ripa.

An attorney for the comely couple has demanded a retraction from the tabloid for a story that claims their 12-year marriage is on the skids and Consuelos has ditched their family's New York abode for a new setup in Chicago.

"Ms. Ripa and Mr. Consuelos are and remain happily married and living together at their home in New York City," read the cease-and-desist missive penned by NYC-based lawyer Michael P. Zweig. (View the letter.)

Not only did the Enquirer go to press after being told that the story was false, Zweig wrote, but the rag's "front page and inner headlines and accompanying story are ridiculous and represent little more than a cynical and malicious attempt to injure my clients and their family, to boost flagging circulation, and to trade off of the good reputation, image and deserved celebrity of my clients."
