Jake Pavelka is on Team Bristol Palin

Jake Pavelka, who lasted five weeks last season on Dancing With the Stars, can relate to Bristol Palin. He knows a thing or two about having two left feet.
While Jake's popularity couldn't match Bristol the Pistol, who made to the finals, he says it's great that she lasted this long - and she has a shot tonight.
“It’s a level playing field. The score is zero, zero, zero,” the former Bachelor and Bachelorette star said. “It’s what makes Dancing With the Stars special."

From one bad dancer to another ...

"It really proves that when America votes, it’s what drives the show. It’s just like American Idol, it’s not decided by the judges. It’s decided by America.”
Well, the judges do play a role, as we discussed in our Dancing With the Stars recap earlier. But his point is essentially correct, and Bristol's proof of it.
When asked who his dream star for DWTS would be? "I think Jennifer Love Hewitt should do Dancing With the Stars. She’s a hottie,” Pavelka said.

Charlie Sheen Text Messages Reveal Plans to "Get Ball Rollin" on Payments to Capri Anderson

Advantage Team Capri?
While Charlie Sheen and Capri Anderson wrestle back and forth in the media and in the courtroom - the latest development in the battle between this sitcom and porn star revolves around the former suing the latter for extortion - TMZ has uncovered a slew of text messages that back up at least two of Anderson's claims.

In an interview with ABC that aired yesterday, Capri said Sheen contacted her the day after he allegedly went berzerk inside a NYC hotel room and offered her $20,000 to not tell her side of the story.

She's also cited an expensive purse the actor destroyed during his rampage on the night of October 25. If the following text messages are to believed, exchanges between these two soon after this incident took place do at least confirm these aspects of Anderson's story.

As first published by TMZ, we present a series of texts between Anderson and Sheen from the day after their infamous first day together:

Sheen: "All I need is an Acct number etc and I will wire u 20k if u think that will cover everything ... I really feel bad, u are as cool and sexy and as sweet and fun and friendly as they get!"
Anderson: "u trashed my brand new prada purse dude not cool - how u managed to rip the strap off and put 2 holes in it is beyond me."
Sheen: "Don't worry about our mutual friends, deal with me directly and I promise u kind lady, all will be restored and set straight."
Anderson: "Yes u can call me.  I don't have a bank account believe it or not."
Sheen: "Oh, well in that case, lemme put together a plan to get u square and flush.  Can u tok (sic) for a sec now sweetie?"
Sheen: "Good news!  My asst Rick is good friends with a cat named Mark in NY, he will get the wire, cash that bitch, and deliver it to u where ever it's convenient ... I'll get the ball Rollin in am, and have data for u asap after that...
Anderson: "Can he leave it somewhere secure for me to pick up?  Like with a bank rep ... I'm rlly nervous about all this."
Sheen: "Of course, whatever makes u feel better... Lemme start that ball Rollin and I'll get back to u with the details..."

Kim Zolciak: Angling for a Spin-Off?

Kim Zolciak is pregnant. But instead of seeing first steps and adorable giggles in her future, this Real Housewife can only see one thing: dollar signs.
Insiders tell Radar Online that Kim wants to follow the Bethenny Frankel model of ditching one show for the grander opportunity of starring in a spin-off that would follow her and boyfriend Kroy Biermann as they prepare for parenthood.
There's nothing like using a fetus as a bargaining chip, is there?

If Kim Zolciak is given her own show, can she at least be barred from singing on it?

"Kim knows that having this baby represents a great opportunity and she is already in talks about her own reality show spin-off starring Kroy," a source says. "This would represent a real problem for Real Housewives of Atlanta because they wanted her baby and any wedding for their show... it will all come down to money."
Ah, the joys of expecting motherhood.

Oksana's Bodyguard: Mel Wanted Me Dead! DEAD!

Mel Gibson wanted Oksana Grigorieva's bodyguard, Kristian Herzog, murdered ... well, at least according to the uber-shady dude's last will and testament.
Radar Online found the document somehow, as well as emails Herzog - a twice-convicted felon who claims he put it to Oksana - sent her this fall.
"I fear that Mel Gibson may try and have me murdered," he wrote in the will.

This just gets weirder by the day.

"I was told that my actions supporting Oksana Grigorieva have greatly disturbed Mel Gibson and he has made comments about having me killed."
Seriously, dude, murder? We all know Mel has anger issues up the wazoo, but you expect us to believe he wanted to TAKE YOUR LIFE? Please.
The murder-for-hire plot is the latest shocking charge from Kristian Herzog, who claimed he and Grigorieva were romantically involved this year.
He calls Grigorieva "my best friend in the world" in the will, in which leaves "100% of any and all that I own or control" to ... Oksana, obviously.
He also touted the reasons why the actor wanted him killed, namely that he had four mistresses who Kristian Herzog had been trying to expose.
"I am also the one that has been trying to get all of Mel Gibson's 4 other mistresses (NOT V.K.) and former staff to come forward and tell the truth about how Gibson assaulted and abused Oksana Grigorieva and her children," Herzog wrote.
V.K. was an apparent reference to Polish porn star Violet Kowal, who claimed she had a steamy three-month love affair with Gibson in Malibu.
That was right around the time of Mel's infamous blowout with Oksana in early 2010. Grigorieva has recently charged that Mel cheated on her.
Herzog also claimed he and Grigorieva felt her lawyers "were working in concert with Mel Gibson's attorneys and NOT looking out for [Oksana]."
He said: "Although I have NO plan to ever take my own life, I am writing this my last will and testament just in case Mel Gibson has me killed."

Sarah Palin Defends Dancing With the Stars Voting, Brushes Off "Haters"

With the judges' scores comprising half the total, Bristol Palin needs a surge of voter support to overcome Jennifer Grey's lead and win Dancing with the Stars.
Can she do it? Ask Audrina Patridge or Brandy if they doubt her fans' ability to pull her through. Bristol's march to the final week has been something to behold.
It's surprised some fans so much that there's been talk of vote-rigging, but her mother, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, dismisses all conspiracy theories.

“The producers of Dancing With the Stars are explaining over and over again, there’s no way to cheat the system,” Sarah said. “But the haters are going to hate."
"Bristol has said it best. Bristol has said, ‘Mom, it doesn’t matter what we do, we’re going to get criticized anyway, so we might as well just dance.” So, so true.
The mother of Bristol and Willow Palin said, “You’re right, honey, you might as well dance, fly, and soar and speak about issues that are important to this country."
"We might as well do it, and we’ll take that criticism, because we know that, at the end of the day, truly, being committed to a cause is worth it.”
What cause she's talking about is subject to interpretation, but how inspirational. Anyway, does Bristol Palin deserve to be in the DWTS finals?
