Chris Brown reveals that he is not ready to date yet and has been working on getting himself together. He told MTV News that he “loves women” and that they are always going to be around but he needs to take time for himself right now. He says, “I haven’t really been trying to get into a relationship or trying to date anybody. I’ve just kinda been working on me. Like I said, just really getting me straight.” In some recent interviews Rihanna has spoken out about the assault on her from Brown and has described what took place that night. Chris says that he wished that Rihanna would have kept the matter private and not done the interviews. Rihanna and Chris Brown have been ordered by the court to keep a distance from each other for 5 years. He says that women are always going to be around for him, but that may not be so true after hearing what Rihanna has said about the incident.

For all you Friends fans, you may be interested to know that according to Lisa Kudrow (who starred as Phoebe) “it doesn’t look like” a Friends reunion is going to happen. The reason is not as juicy as you may think. She simply says that “everyone is busy.” Although the cast may be busy there are some objections to the reunion show. It’s not the cast members who are against the reunion, it’s actually the show’s writer-creators Marta Kauffman and David Crane. Lisa also had some qualms about the reunion as well saying, “It would be fun, but I don’t know. How? Why? Really?” Friends ran for 10 years between 1994-2004. The other friends included Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox-Arquette, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, and David Schwimmer. There was a mini-Friends reunion as Lisa shot an episode of Courteney’s new television series, Cougar Town. I guess Friends fans will have to continue simply watch the reruns that are all on television.

British songster Leona Lewis hasn’t let fame change her – and she staunchly sticks by the people who have been with her from the start. In a new interview, Lewis, 24, addresses the fact that she is still with her boyfriend of seven years, Lou Al-Chamaa. Lewis says some people think you should ditch the people you knew before when you find fame, and she doesn’t agree with that. “For people to think that you should leave someone because, all of a sudden, you’re a singer and you have opportunities. I feel sorry for them.” Lewis has also kept her residence in the “gritty” Hackney area of London.

LaToya Jackson recently opened up about how the kids are doing, and how each of them are trying to cope in their own way. Blanket, age 7, is “just a very sad, shy little boy.

Former Full House star Jodie Sweetin, who played the sweet child Stephanie Tanner, is set to release a memoir recounting her past as an alcoholic and drug user. Jodie says that she spent years trying to prove she was not the innocent Stephanie Tanner and would try to get more “trashed than everyone else.” Sweetin says that even after having her daughter Zoie in April 2008 she fell back into her horrible ways which caused her separation from her second husband Cody Herpin. Even when she was talking to the public about being sober and beating her addiction she was still secretly doing drugs. In an excerpt from her book, she retells an account about speaking on her sobriety tour and doing coke right before talking to an auditorium of students at Marquette University about becoming sober. Her book is called unSweetined and has not been released yet.

Last week Kourtney Kardashian‘s home was burglarized and over $100,000 worth of jewelry was taken. According to Kourtney’s mom Kris Jenner and her sister Khloe, they have a real “hunch” as to who stole the jewelry. Kris says that “it was a group thing,” and hinted that the thieves were “jealous” people who have inside access from their reality show. She explained that there are always cameras rolling since Kourtney is on a reality show and the thieves had to know when the cameras were going to be off as well as gain entrance into the gated community. Khloe added that they also knew that her alarm system was not working at the time as well. Apparently there were plenty of other valuables that could have been stolen like laptops which were sitting right on the bed, but the burglars only took the valuable and sentimental jewelry. Kourtney is missing jewelry pieces from her late father such as a watch that was given to him on his wedding day. The question is, were these pieces away in a safe or just left out so everybody could see them?

The currently New York-based Madonna is learning a new lesson – holding dance sessions in your apartment doesn’t necessarily make for happy neighbors. The board of the building in which Madonna currently lives are threatening to evict the pop diva if her behavior doesn’t stop. Neighbors say that behavior includes dance sessions of up to three hours a day with loud music, thumping and shaking walls and floors. The most recent lawsuit was filed by a neighbor on Friday – no comment yet from the Material Girl herself.

Late last week, the nation watched in horror as a couple’s hot air weather balloon stole through the sky – allegedly, with their 6-year-old son Falcon inside. The nation was horrified when Richard and Mayumi Heene’s makeshift balloon crashed to the ground and little Falcon was nowhere to be found. Massive search efforts were launched to find the boy until he was discovered in his parent’s attic. At first, it was thought to be a horrible misunderstanding. Now, authorities are claiming the entire thing was a hoax, devised to get the Heene family a shiny new reality show. The authorities have made it clear that charges are forthcoming as soon as the investigation is clear, and child protective services is looking into whether the Heene’s three sons should stay in the home. The Heene’s lawyer, David Lane, recently told reporters that when the time came, Richard and Mayumi Heene would turn themselves in to avoid arrest in front of their children.

Reality show vixen Khloe Kardashian and her new husband, Lakers basketball player Lamar Odom, have finally inked a prenup to make their already-done nuptials a done deal. The couple’s prenup makes it sound like the marriage is doomed to fail, and sooner than later. Khloe can’t touch her husband’s basketball earnings with the Lakers over the next 4 years, but he does have to buy them a nice house. And to make up for her not having a claim over his earnings, Khloe gets a big fat allowance every year. So, who wants to bet the divorce papers are all ready to go?

The supermodel who has it all has decided to take on one more thing – her husband Seal’s last name. Nearly four years after they wed, Heidi Klum has filed a petition to changer her last name from Klum to Samuel (Seal’s official last name). It’s a good thing tradition only calls for taking the last name – Seal‘s full name is Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adeola Samuel! Klum, 36, is due with her fourth child, a girl, later this month. Including the new arrival, she and Seal have three children. Seal, 46, is also the adoptive father of her daughter Leni, age 5.

It’s always good when you can laugh at yourself – or, at least, let other people do it for you. Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt are allegedly okay with the fact that “Wishful Drinking” – a Broadway play starring Carrie Fisher – closely mimics their own contentious split. Fisher claims the play is actually autobiographical, and was written about her father’s split with her mother, Debbie Reynolds, for Elizabeth Taylor. However, when Fisher realized how closely it resembled Pitt and Aniston’s situation, she was sure to check with Pitt to make sure he wouldn’t be offended.

The Jon & Kate Plus 8 train gets further and further off track every day and this week is no exception. It’s been a busy one – Jon was fired by TLC from Jon & Kate Plus 8 due to his womanizing and erratic behavior in recent weeks. He immediately initiated legal action to stop filming of the show at the family home until the matter could go to Court. Jon, who has previously said the show was not harmful to the kids, decided that it was harmful as soon as he was cut out. According to Kate, who appeared distraught in a television appearance, he then withdrew all but $1,000.00 from their joint account of $231,000.00 – leaving her without enough money to pay the bills. She also said the children screamed and cried when she told them the show would not be filming anymore. Apparently, Jon Gosselin hasn’t much forethought. Without the show, he has eight children to support and no job.

Apparently Heidi Klum finally wants to have the same last name as her husband and 3 of her 4 kids . She filed name change documents with the L.A. County Superior Court to have her last name officially changed to Samuel, which is the last name of her husband Seal Henry Olusegun Olumide Adelo Samuel. The name change will not be official until a judge signs off on it sometime in November. So, will she still go by Heidi Klum as a professional name or will she change everything to Heidi Samuel?

I don’t know one woman who would like the fact that their husband cheated on them with their leading lady and then the leading lady proceeded to move into her life. Well, that is what seems to be happening to Brandi Glanville who is the soon-to-be ex-wife of actor Eddie Cibrian. Cibrian and LeAnn Rimes first started their affair when they were both married and filming a Lifetime movie together. Cibrian filed for divorce in August and has been seen a lot with Rimes, who has since separated from her husband. According to Brandi though, LeAnn is getting a little too close for comfort. She told UsMagazine.com, “I have a new neighbor and her name is LeAnn Rimes. She’s moved in a half a mile from my house and a block from my son’s school. So she is completely space invading me at the moment so things are not cool.” She added that her run-ins with the country singer/actress are “not pleasant.” She also went on to say, “Honestly, she’s Single White Female-ing me. She wants my life. She wants my kids. She wants my husband. She can have most of everything but just not my children or my family.” Brandi says that her and Eddie play nice in front of their children as “they’re the most important thing in both of our lives.” If this is true, then this is definitely a little freaky for LeAnn Rimes to be doing this. I mean she split up their marriage, isn’t that enough?
