If Tori Spelling and hubby Dean McDermott's reality show isn't enough for ya, we've got some good news.

I'm told McDermott is in talks to compete on the next season of Dancing With the Stars. "He wants to do it," a source tells me. "He'd be really good at it, too."

Oh, those Spellings just can't get along, can they?

Let's hope, for the sake of Tori's kids, Liam and Stella, that she and her mom, Candy, will reconcile someday.

In the meantime, the estranged mother and daughter have books to sell.

We caught up with the elder Spelling last night at L.A.'s Grove mall, where she was signing copies of her literary debut, Stories From Candyland, at Barnes & Noble.

Of course, we talked about Tori. But that's not all. Find out why Candy must have a gift-wrapping room in her new home, why she'll never remarry and the chances of Candy herself appearing on the new 90210.

Tori Spelling's mother, Candy, just rained on her daughter's book-party parade.

Just a few hours before Tori will be celebrating the release of her second book, Mommywood, with a party in Beverly Hills, the elder Spelling went and posted a letter to her daughter on her website.

"I don't want a reunion via a talk show or to speak through the press," Candy writes. "I want a relationship with you and my grandchildren."

Candy writes that Tori left her with no other option than the public plea.

Bethenny Frankel really doesn't mind the false rumors that she has hooked up with Madonna's former baseball boy-toy Alex Rodriguez. She's actually been hoping he'd try to connect with her.

"I kept thinking he was going to call," Bethenny told us this weekend during an appearance at Fred Segal Fun in Santa Monica for her new book, Naturally Thin: Unleash Your SkinnyGirl and Free Yourself from a Lifetime of Dieting. "And now I feel like a jilted lover…He won't even make the rumor true."

And yes, the Real Housewives of New York City star thinks she can compete with Madonna. "I'm not as famous as Madonna, but I can do the same yoga poses as she can."

That's not all Bethenny dished on. Keep reading to learn about the must-see fight she has coming up on Real Housewives, her take on Kelly Killoren Bensimon's recent run-in with the law and which Hollywood starlet she trashes for being too thin.

No one knows for sure what Tori Spelling's storyline will be when she returns as Donna Martin to the new 90210, but at least one actor would apparently like some hanky-panky to take place.

"Ryan Eggold [who plays Ryan Matthews] thinks he's gonna sleep with her," AnnaLynne McCord, who plays Naomi Clark on the revived teen drama, told us Saturday at the GBK Golden Globes gift lounge in Beverly Hills. "That's what he wants."

She added with a chuckle, "He wants his character to sleep with everyone in the old cast—including Jason Priestley. Our man-whore, Ryan, wants that to happen."

But would that actually happen? McCord doesn't think 90210 has actually lived up to its racy expectations.

Forget Tori and Candy Spelling's feuding on the home front. Now they're going to be battling it out in bookstores.

Ready for the latest Spelling drama?

Candy is releasing her memoir, Stories From Candyland, on April 14, 2009. Tori's sophomore effort, Mommywood, was originally supposed to be released two weeks later, on April 28.

But several sources now tell me Tori's book will now come out on—you guessed it—April 14!

Does this mean the two will have joint book readings and signings at your local Barnes & Noble? Don't bet on it.

The Peach Pit is back!

But it doesn't look like the kitschy 1950s diner from the original 90210. Instead, the cast from the CW's upcoming new 90210 will be hanging at a much sleeker restaurant.

Paws for a moment of silence.

Tori Spelling's camera-friendly pug Mimi La Rue, a staple in paparazzi shots, on her reality shows and the namesake of her and hubby Dean McDermott's ill-fated B&B, died Tuesday of natural causes at the ripe old doggy age of 11.

Spelling tells E! News that her beloved four-legged friend, who suffered from hip and neck problems, died at the family home, surrounded by the couple, year-old son Liam and 10-day-old daughter Stella.

"We are planning a small memorial service for her with our close friends," says Spelling.

Mimi's casket will be, yes, pink.

Tori Spelling and her mom, Candy, may not always get along, but babies do seem to bring out the best in this contentious mother-daughter duo.

"There is nothing like the happiness and elation of welcoming a new grandchild!" Candy Spelling tells me exclusively through her rep. "Of course, I'm thrilled about little Stella, and now Liam has a sister, which is what Tori had hoped for. This is a very happy time for the family, and I know Aaron would have been overjoyed!"

Tori Spelling may have once had the luxury of her late dad's bank account but not anymore. Even so, she sure likes spending big.

Spelling was spotted shopping yesterday at popular celebrity boutique Harmony Lane in Beverly Hills, where she dropped $2,000! She left with her arms full of shopping bags filled with dresses, shirts, clutches, jewelry and even a candle.

But she should be careful. Spelling told ABC's 20/20 just last month that she was once close to bankruptcy because of her buying habits and credit-card debt.

“I never had to worry about money,” Spelling said on 20/20. “I know that might sound shallow to people, but that was my reality. You know I would sit and watch my mom order stuff online or in a catalogue, and she’d pick a sweater and order it in 10 different colors. And I thought, ‘Oh, when I have my own money, that’s what I should do.’ After a while, it catches up with you.”

Spelling famously got shafted in billionaire father Aaron Spelling’s will, receiving less than $1 million.
