This Week In Tabloids: JWoww's Ex Says She Stabbed Him With Steak Knife
CelebritiesWelcome back to Midweek Madness, in which we search for hot, delicious morsels of truth in the bread baskets of In Touch, Star, Ok!, Life & Style and Us. This week, Mariah Carey invites us in to gawk at the elaborate nurseries created for her unborn twins; the lady who agreed to marry the robot from The Bachelor is all potato, potahto, let’s call the whole thing off; and JWoww’s ex-boyfriend Tom claims that the Jersey Shore star stabbed him with a steak knife. Oh, and Lindsay Lohan has been drinking again (allegedly!), but you knew that.
Ok!
“Fight For The Twins”
Teen Mom‘s Leah is battling her ex, Corey, for custody of the twins. But! Corey’s father vows to “spend as much as he has to insure that Corey gets custody.” This is, of course, according to an insider. Apparently this was a marriage of convenience, although we don’t know how that works, since she didn’t need to get married to get cash from MTV. The kid with the glasses is the meal ticket! An insider says: “Leah is a good mother, but a terrible wife.” Leah had the audacity to go to a party with a guy who’d gotten into a fight with Corey over a DIFFERENT girl, and when Corey found out about that, he was officially done with her. Corey stopped having sex with Leah and attacked her verbally about her stretch marks. Later she caught him on the couch watching pornography. Yeah, okay. Anyway. Let’s move on: Rihanna hooked up with Usher at Coachella! They were seen being flirty at a party — and left holding hands! Even though Leonardo DiCaprio chatted her up, she went home with Urrrsher. Angelina might be pregnant, not just because of that 7th tattoo but because she wore a bulky jacket, “that seemed to camouflage an abdominal extension!” That’s the first time we’ve ever heard a belly referred to that way. Jessica Biel was spotted “seeking spiritual solace” at the airport. On her way to the Caribbean, she was seen reading Life And Teaching Of The Masters Of The Far East. Breakup zen. Next: As soon as Jennifer Aniston heard that Bradley Cooper was back on the market, she had her assistants call him. One of the best reasons to have an assistant! They dated in 2009, and she was “left embarrassed” after he dumped her to get serious with Renée Zellweger instead. Now, Jen is “quietly confident” about their future, but taking it slowly, and not waiting by the phone, obvs. FYI: Kirstie Alley has lost 30 lbs. since joining Dancing With The Stars. When Suri Cruise turned 5 recently, she had not one but two birthday parties. Kirstie Alley, Conan O’Brien and the Beckhams were in attendance! The first bash had face and nail painting, a petting zoo and swimming — and then home movies documenting Suri’s short but full life. The second celebration was brunch at a Scientology Center, boo. Yuck. Lastly: Prince William “genuinely” fears for Kate’s life — even though they’re spending $32 million on security — he’s afraid anarchists or terrorists will target the wedding procession. Kind of scary.

“Meltdowns! Hookups! Feuds!”
So. When Kirstie Alley first joined Dancing With The Stars, everyone thought she was really strange because she always wanted to be in control. She brought her own dress to wear, that “people” had to bejewel for her. She also brought her own makeup and was concerned about how it was applied, SO WEIRD. But now! She’s “given into the process,” and everyone loves her. She’s like the den mother. So, really, she had no meltdown, hookup, or feud. But she has been hanging out and hitting the clubs with her dance partner Maks, and Cheryl Burke, and people think it’s because Cheryl has been hooking up with Maks. So hookup by association? The other hookup happening is Chelsea Kane and Stephen Colletti from Laguna Beach (Lauren Conrad’s ex). Oh, and Mark Ballas is dating Pia Toscano. The “meltdown” is coming from Kendra. You may not know this, but it’s impossible to juggle motherhood and dancing. Kendra is “buckling under the stress.” Carrie Ann Inaba told Kendra she was “afraid of elegance,” and Kendra said, “I just don’t care about it,” and her partner, Louis Vam Amstel, was super disappointed — causing Kendra to crumple to the ground. And then she was crying uncontrollably backstage. So much drama. Moving along: It is “simply not true” that Bradley Cooper wants to pursue a romance with Jennifer Aniston. The main reason? His dad died, and dating is the last thing on his mind. Also, he doesn’t want to be known as Mr. Jennifer Aniston. Sigh. Here is a quote from Gwyneth Paltrow: “We’ve got a wood-burning pizza oven in the garden — a luxury, I know, but it’s one of the best investments I’ve ever made.” Aziz Ansari witnessed an odd moment with 50 Cent: “He looks at the waiter and goes, ‘Why isn’t this purple?’ I realized, Oh my god, 50 Cent has no idea what a grapefruit is.” Guess Fiddy was hoping for GRAPE fruit juice. Teen Mom‘s Jenelle Evans pleaded guilty to possession of drug paraphernalia on April 15. Ke$ha is in PETA’s new ad campaign targeting baby seal clubbing (see it here!). Glee‘s Chord Overstreet was seen making out with Emma Roberts at a Coachella party, but by the next day, they’d cooled off: She was leaning into him and he was more interested in food. Afterglow? LeAnn Rimes went to Chuck E. Cheese with her fiancé’s ex, Brandi Glanville, so they’re in a “cease-fire.” Chuck E. Cheese is Switzerland. Or the DMZ. Kate Middleton may wear her hair half up and half down for the Royal Wedding, but a Royal Hair Stylist — who is NOT working with Princess Shinylocks — wishes she would reconsider. “Hair that’s down is unpredictable,” quoth he. Ain’t that the truth. Also, William and Kate have to practice the kiss they will do on the balcony of Buckingham Palace, because if the angle of approach is even slightly off, there will be blockage, and world could miss out on the moment! It’s like landing a 747 on a crumpet. Ashley Judd revealed many personal details in her new memoir, but her husband continues to support her. Shocking, we know. They even had dinner with her mom last week! The Teen Mom story here alleges that Corey “betrayed” Leah. She thinks that he cheated — and just three weeks before the wedding, he was flirting with chicks at the local Dairy Queen, and even picked one up from work. Also? The day they filed for divorce, Corey was “swapping amorous Facebook messages” with a chick who works at Subway. They met that night at Wal-Mart, and there are so many chain store names in this story we can’t even go on. Lastly, here’s a wardrobe insight from Jessica Simpson: “If I don’t show my collarbone, I skew uni-boob.”
