There's something to be said for turning lemons into lemonade, particularly if the lemons are growing in the Playboy Mansion. After news broke about the breakup of Hefner and then-fiance Crystal Harris mere days before wedding was slated to occur, Lifetime originally announced that it was going to cancel the show. Sensing that perhaps some people might still be interested in what it would be like have a swarm of long-legged, big-breasted Playmates wipe away your tears and get you back on your feet, Lifetime apparently reversed course.

Brace yourselves, Potter fans. This one is something special.
J.K. Rowling released a new YouTube video early this morning announcing what her mysterious new website Pottermore was all about. As we've been reporting all week, there has been rampant speculation and leaked documents indicating that the site would be an interactive gaming platform. What will the site really be?

The first of two extra results shows for "The Voice" (added mid-season due to the show's success) aired last night, whittling the group of eight semifinalists down to just four: one for each superstar coaches' team. If you have "The Voice" sitting on your DVR and you haven't watched it yet, beware: there are SPOILERS ahead!

Let the Hollywood Nostalgia Train keep on a-rollin'? The first official trailer for the long-awaited remake to the beloved Kevin Bacon movie-musical "Footloose" has now hit the Internet. Starring Julianne Hough ("Dancing With The Stars"), Kenny Wormald and Dennis Quiad ("The Rookie"), the movie tells the tale of Ren McCormack (originally Bacon, now Wormald) and his move to the little town of Bomont from his big-city life in Boston.

To all those who felt really, really bad for the eight handsome gentlemen who beat the charming out of each other this past week to fight on for a chance at true love on "The Bachelorette," take heart: this Monday, they will have every single justifiable reason to pull a Bentley and hop the next plane, train or automobile out of Hong Kong. Actually, to hear host Chris Harrison tell it, they might all be wishing herpes on Ashley Hebert as we speak.

Last night provided eliminations from Team Adam and Team Cee Lo to narrow it down to eight semifinalists, who then performed. The judges' scores will combine with the audience vote to determine who goes home tonight...by the end of this result show, only four will be left. Find out who survives!

When it comes to a bedside aide, you could do a whole lot worse than Cameron Diaz.
But as the great Levar Burton would say, you don't have to take my word for it. Take Jon Stewart's. He's the famous one, after all, not me.
Diaz dropped in on "The Daily Show With Jon Stewart" Wednesday to stump for her latest comedy "Bad Teacher," hitting theaters June 24.

Last night's episode of "The Voice" featured a performance from Cee Lo Green, which can mean only one thing: it's crazy wig time!
Last time Cee Lo took the stage, it was with his team of eight performers as they sang "Everyday People" in full 1970's outfits...and the big man wore a huge fake afro. This time around, Cee Lo was out by himself to perform his newest single "Bright Lights, Bigger City," and once again he had a wig on.

Super-producer Mark Burnett is one of those people whose work you know even if you don't know who he is. In fact, you know his many reality shows even if you don't watch reality TV: "Survivor" and "The Apprentice" remain two of the biggest titles in the genre, and shows like "Shark Tank" and "The Voice" are on the rise. And yes, Burnett is a producer on all of those shows.

Well, Tracy Morgan apparently didn't feel that his apologies so far for his recent on-stage rant against the gay community had cut the mustard. The "30 Rock" and former "Saturday Night Live" star and stand-up comic appeared in Nashville at the behest of gay-rights advocacy group GLAAD to make yet another official apology - this time, to a media gathering.
