The Kim Kardashian divorce saga has taken a turn for the telenovela best, with sources claiming she divorced Kris so she could resume sexy times with Reggie Bush. Having standards that somehow still allowed him to date her in the first place, the football player and his persuasive penis told her over lunch two days before she filed for divorce that he wouldn’t jump back in the sack with her unless she ended things with her husband. “Reggie told her that he would not do anything with her unless she was single. She had to get an official divorce before he would ever even consider having a physical relationship with Kim.” Though the story was broken by Media Take Out and should therefore be taken with a handful of salt, we’re going to take the unsubstantiated gossip and run with it: ¡Kim es sucia!

Though it’s much more fun to assume it’s true until someone gives him an SVU-style cheek swab to prove otherwise (sorry Selena!), Justin Bieber‘s camp are trying to burst our bubble by calling bull on allegations the 17-year-old knocked up Mariah Yeater, who has filed a paternity lawsuit against the star. “While we haven’t yet seen the lawsuit, it’s sad that someone would fabricate malicious, defamatory, and demonstrably false claims,” say the killjoys. We will vigorously pursue all available legal remedies to defend and protect Justin against these allegations.” [US]

Hugh Grant joins the Benicio Del Toro club after revealing he fathered a child with a woman he wishes he hadn’t. Complete with a delightfully offensive public statement. “I can confirm that Hugh Grant is the delighted father of a baby girl,” says his rep, Carrie Gordon. “He and the mother had a fleeting affair and while this was not planned, Hugh could not be happier or more supportive. He and the mother have discussed everything and are on very friendly terms.” So romantical! [People]
Serena Williams lived out her very own Jodie Foster fantasy when she ran to the panic room of her LA mansion last week after seeing an “intruder” on her security cameras. Turns out it was a random drug tester from some tennis association who was stopping by her place to try and get some surprise urine. First, panic rooms are awesome. Secondly, was this person climbing through a window, sample cup, in hand or were they at the front door? Shady, Serena, very shady. [TMZ]

When Alec Baldwin visited Occupy Wall Street, critics noted that he appears in ads for Capital One.
