Back in late January/early February, the entertainment world (and Yidio fans) were up in arms over the controversy surrounding “Skins,” a new MTV teen drama based on a British series that showed a realistic portrayal of the world of teens, drugs, sex and all.

The series started off with a bang, scoring ratings success and the scorn of the Parent’s Television Council, while causing advertisers to flee and countless inches of ink to be spilled.

The baby watch is on.

As we know, celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe has reportedly checked into Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles Tuesday after going into labor.

The suspense is “bananas!” – as Zoe, 39, would say.

Fans of Zoe can hardly wait to get a peek at her bundle of joy, not to mention its first ensemble.

Zoe and husband Roger Berman are expecting a boy, who is already being hailed as “the world’s most fashionable” infant.

I suppose, all things considered, seeing Kate Winslet giving you a thumbs-up while you're completely naked isn't such a bad thing.

That's what happened to Evan Rachel Wood during the filming of the new HBO show "Mildred Pierce." The "True Blood" star has her first-ever nude scene in the series, and said that co-star Kate Winslet was helping her every step of the way.

The upcoming musical episode of "Grey's Anatomy" isn't until March 31st (I know, we can't wait for it either), but there is still plenty of good stuff to look forward to this week. Shonda Rhimes and the cast have opened up a bit about what to expect for the rest of the season, and there are some pretty juicy hints about the relationships at Seattle Grace.

But before we continue, I'm contractually obligated to say SPOILER ALERT!

There will be a time jump in the early part of May sweeps, advancing all of the relationships a bit.

When it was first "announced" that Johnny Depp was keen on doing a remake of "The Thin Man" with director Rob Marshall, I chalked it up to little more than a whim that would pass as soon as the latest Tim Burton project fell on his desk.

But if there's one person in Hollywood whose whims you chase, it's Johnny Depp's, so Warner Brothers is hard at work developing it.

Have We Outgrown 'All My Children'? 41-Year-Old Soap May Be Cancelled Soon

After "The Guiding Light," "As the World Turns," and "Passions" all fell prey to bad ratings and eventual cancellation over the past five years, soap operas should be on their toes: any one of them could be next. In fact, the next soap to fall might just be "All My Children."

The 41-year-old soap opera (yes, it's been running since 1970!) has been suffering in the daytime ratings, causing rumors to arise that the show might not be long for this world.

Don't mess with James Franco...he knows how to use Microsoft Paint.

Bruce Vilanch, the show writer for the Oscars, got on Franco's bad side when he told New York Magazine, "He didn't get there," in reference to Franco's Oscar-hosting performance.

Franco responded by tweeting a picture of him and Vilanch at the Oscars with the words "James f***ed up the Oscars.
