Mia Michaels Quits So You Think You Can Dance
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, FOX, So You Think You Can Dance, Gossip, News, Video,
Depending on how you feel about your reality shows, this news may be more upsetting than Paula Abdul‘s exit from American Idol.
What was hinted in a series of tweets last night has now been confirmed: Mia Michaels has left So You Think You Can Dance. The choreographer - who coincidentally used the same method as Abdul to announce her departure - posted the messages on Twitter shortly after appearing on last night’s episode.
“I AM OFFICIALLY AN ADORING FAN OF SYTYCD….THANK U FOR 5 WONDERFUL YRS…TO CREATE MOMENTS AND MOVEMENT FOR THE WORLD TO SHARE WITH ME WAS A GIFT…THANKS SYTYCD AND LOOK FORWARD TO WHATS AHEAD FOR ME…LOOKOUT WORLD!!!!!” Mia wrote.

MTV VIDEO: Kanye West Disrespects Taylor Swift at VMAs

UPDATE: You can read Taylor Swift’s response here.
UPDATE: You can read Kanye West’s “apology” here.
Let’s just make this clear—this stunt was not orchestrated like Bruno’s moment with Eminem.
During tonight’s MTV Video Music Awards, Kanye West stunned the audience—and an already stunned Taylor Swift—with a declaration that will be talked about for quite some time. While accepting an award for Best Female Video, the country singer was interrupted by the rapper who was upset about Beyonce’s loss in the category.
Although Kanye is known for acting like a child when he is not presented an award, he felt it was necessary to defend Ms. Knowles’ honor during Taylor’s moment on stage. (Based on the shocked expression on Beyonce’s face, she clearly didn’t want his help.) Unfortunately, that left the beautiful 19-year-old standing there with nothing left to say.

Paula Abdul Responds to Ellen Selection
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Gossip, News,
Wondering how Paula Abdul feels about being replaced by Ellen DeGeneres?
While I doubt she’s entirely pleased with the situation, she apparently has nothing bad to say about the talk show host. At least, there’s nothing she can say with only 140 characters.
Just moments ago, the former judge issued this comment via Twitter:
“I think Ellen will b a gr8 judge on Idol. She is wildly funny, talented and I wish her the best of luck!”

While Paula will not be continuing with us, she’s a tremendous talent and we wish her the best.”
We knew an announcement would be coming soon—but did we really think it would end up this way?
Less than a week after learning that Kara DioGuardi would be returning to American Idol comes news of a major exit. Within the hour, Paula Abdul has announced through a series of tweets that she will NOT be coming back to the hit reality show.

Paula Abdul Threatening to Leave American Idol
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Gossip, News,
UPDATE: Simon Cowell told Extra, “She’ll be fine. She’ll be on the show. I don’t get a lot of say. I’ve just made it clear that I want Paula on the show.”
Did Ryan Seacrest’s $45 million paycheck leave Paula Abdul with chump change?
Although Paula Abdul declared that American Idol was something she’d always “want to be a part of,” her manager recently told the Los Angeles Times that a return was starting to look doubtful. “Very sadly, it does not appear that she’s going to be back on Idol,” David Sonenberg stated.
According to David, Abdul hasn’t even been given an option to turn down. “I have not received any proposal whatsoever,” Sonenberg claimed. “I find it under these circumstances particularly unusual; I think unnecessarily hurtful. I find it kind of unconscionable and certainly rude and disrespectful that they haven’t stepped up and said what they want to do,” he added.
Could this be why Kara DioGuardi’s fate is still up in the air? The producers might not believe there are suitable replacements for Simon Cowell or Seacrest, but they may be keeping Abdul’s waiting in the wings.
Until the negotiations are finalized, Paula supporters on Twitter have begun adding #KeepPaula to the end of their tweets.

Jackson-Themed So You Think You Can Dance Planned
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, FOX, So You Think You Can Dance, News,
Next week, FOX will pay tribute to the King of Pop’s musical library. Now the network is planning to honor his contributions to dance.
Hours after Michael Jackson’s death, plans for a special So You Think You Can Dance were in the works. Based on a series of tweets started by Nigel Lythgoe, we may soon see an MJ-themed broadcast with numbers from Wade Robson (a former Jackson back-up dancer), Mia MIchaels…and former Janet Jackson-choreographer Paula Abdul.

Lindsay Lohan on Reality TV?
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Reality, Gossip, Rumors,
According to TMZ, former movie star Lindsay Lohan may be setting her sights on reality TV…with a little help from industry mogul Ryan Seacrest. The American Idol host has turned reality TV into a personal empire, and now it seems he would welcome Lohan into the successful fold.
Seacrest twittered recently that he “Met with lindsay last night about a show idea I have for her..it helps people and gives others a second shot! Still putting it all together.” Lindsay also offered up a message, which begins with “Working on a really great project for television- I am excited!” Rumor says that money, the figure $1 million has been tossed around, will be offered to help these people affect a change.
So, here’s the million-dollar question: which network will be brave enough to take on a Lohan-centric project? None of the movie studios seem willing to do it, and everybody answers to somebody…so we’ll see.

Speidi’s Back in LA
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Daytime, Reality, Talk Shows, NBC, Gossip, Video,
TMZ captured video of Heidi and Spencer Pratt arriving in LA after their stint in Costa Rica. The couple were part of the cast of I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, a show they left several times before they finally chose to leave for good.
Now that they’re back to their lavish lifestyles, Speidi is singing a different tune. They no longer seem angry at NBC and they are denying that they ever cried “torture” against the network in the first place. “I love NBC. I was never suing NBC,” Spencer told that paps as he made his way through the airport. “I guess since you sign a waiver…it’s not called torture.” Or some smart lawyer patiently explained to the newlyweds that they absolutely don’t have a case against the show.
The pair further soaked up the spotlight by appearing on Today, where they were questioned by Al Roker. He valiantly tried to get real answers out of the couple before finally putting an end to the entire Q and A (view the video above).

VIDEO: Bruno Forces Eminem to Leave the 2009 MTV Movie Awards
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Cable, MTV, Video,
UPDATE: You can read Eminem’s reaction to the planned stunt here.
What’s the best way to get on Eminem’s bad side? Well - if you’re Bruno, just get your naked rear in his face.
During tonight’s broadcast of the 2009 MTV Movie Awards, actor Sacha Baron Cohen (promoting his movie about an Austrian fashionista) flew in from the rafters on on a high note…then descended toward the rapper’s low note. Needless to say, this prompted the musician and his crew to leave in disgust.
