Kid Rock to Steven Tyler: You're an Idiot

American Idol fans may be torn on new judge Steven Tyler, but Kid Rock has made it very clear what he thinks of this rocker's decision to join the show.
"I think it's the stupidest thing he's ever done in his life," the Detroit native told Entertainment Weekly.

Kid says he loves the Aerosmith front man "to death," but adds:

"He's a sacred American institution of rock 'n roll and he just threw it all out the window. Just stomped on it and set it on fire... I think whoever's advising him, we should bring back the guillotine or whatever they call that thing. And if it was himself, he needs some serious counseling."

Mel Gibson Denied Access to Daughter on Birthday

Mel Gibson won't be able to spend a second with his baby girl Lucia tomorrow on her first birthday, after being shut down by the judge in their custody case.
The actor gets Lucia today but is supposed to return her to Oksana Grigorieva in the afternoon. The issue is that Mel's primary nanny is out sick this morning.
As such, Mel asked the judge for permission to return Lucia Saturday. No dice.

Mel Gibson and Oksana Grigorieva are in an all-out war over custody.

Team Oksana objected, arguing Mel has another nanny who is perfectly capable of transporting Lucia. She already feels Mel already has too much visitation.
In the end, the judge kept the status quo, which means Mel must return Lucia this evening. He's testifying Monday in their case. All we're wondering here is ...

Heidi Montag's Mom Now Working as Maid

Earlier this week, we heard from Audrina Patridge's mom, Lynn, who drunkenly declared that her class act daughter's a star who's "going to f*%king rise!"
Other Hills moms aren't feeling so enthusiastic about the future.
Darlene Egelhoff, who famously disapproved of daughter Heidi Montag's plastic surgery (and husband, and lifestyle) on the show, is now estranged from her. She's also fallen on hard times and is battling to make ends meet.

Darlene Egelhoff with Speidi in happier times.

After her restaurant closed after 21 years, Egelhoff now cleans houses as a maid in her native Crested Butte, Colo., she told Inside Edition Thursday.
Egelhoff admits some of her clients recognize her from The Hills.
"That's very humbling for me and I appreciate it because I don’t ever want to get full of myself and think I’m too good to do anything," Darlene says.
The reality mom says she hasn't spoken to or seen Heidi Montag since she debuted her new face/body in a tense visit to Crested Butte on The Hills.
That was more than nine months ago. Egelhoff has even launched a personal blog, Metamorphosis of a Mother, in the hopes of Montag reading it.
This assumes Heidi can even read, but we admire the effort.
Darlene's website calls itself "A mother’s support and encouragement blog focused on personal growth, self discovery, igniting passions, happiness, faith, adventure and the importance of an identity apart from our children."
Heidi, just wait until Spencer Pratt runs an errand and call her already. We know he's probably got surveillance cameras on you at all times, but still. Take a risk. Life's too short to distance yourselves from the ones you love.

Jersey Shore Reunion Recap: No Fist-Pumps Here

Those hoping for major fireworks or knock-down, drag-out brawls on the Jersey Shore Season 2 reunion special last night came away sorely disappointed.
On some reality shows, the reunion special is the best part. It's when Teresa Giudice flips tables and labels Danielle Staub a prostitution whores. Not here.
These people are all flirting with prostitution whore status, too. Anyway, here's THG's usual +/- recap of last night. Aww yeah, reunion show recap YEAH!!

There's no love lost between Ron and JWoww after The Note.

One could argue this show is depressing, and that its cast is a bunch of losers who reflect badly on our society. Or one could say It's T-shirt tiiiiiime!! Plus 7.

Could host Julissa Bermudez be more robotic? They should have gotten Angelina Pivarnick to host without the cast knowing. We'd pay to see that. Minus 5.

Speaking of Ange, Ronnie had one of the best Jersey Shore quotes last night: "How could you not smush if you get Fossil watch? And it was white!" Plus 9.

With a few exceptions, we basically got a clip show of Season 2 debauchery, with surprisingly little in the way of original fireworks. In a word, eh. Minus 8.

Sitch to Sam: "Regardless of who wrote the note, who didn't write it, who told you in person, the only person you could possibly be mad at was Ron." Plus 4.

Sitch to Ron: "Do you love that girl? Then you should be thanking me, because I'm the only one who goes up and talks to her when she's crying." Plus 4.

Yeah, Ronnie and Sammi are still together. Minus 13.

Vinny and Pauly put the VP in MVP. Or just VP.

Vinny and Pauly D seem somewhat genuine, despite their flaws. The other idiots seem like HGH-fueled caricatures of themselves at this point. Minus 10.
Ron claimed J-Woww offered to hook up with him if Sammi hooked up with Sitch. JWoww responded: "I'd rather just f--k Pauly." We can see that. Plus 5.
When footage played of Sitch's attempted robbery, Vinny declared: "It might be MVP to him, but it's VP to me." Ooooh, that's gotta burn, Sitch. Plus 4.
Number of times The Situation said situation? We have no idea, we lost count, since we were taking a shot each time. But it's awesomely high. Plus 6.
Deleted scenes: Snooki farts a lot, etc. Zzz. Minus 3.
Until Season Three of Jersey Shore begins ...

TOTAL: Even. SEASON TOTAL: +143.

Kim Kardashian and Miles Austin: Standing Together?

Sometimes u have to fall down to know where u stand.
Such sage words were Tweeted by Miles Austin this week. Was the Cowboys wide receiver referring to his team's dismal record, which sits at 1-5 and has Dallas unlikely to make the playoffs?
Or might it have been a shout-out to ex-girlfriend Kim Kardashian, who replied on her Twitter account: Those are some pretty wise words, followed by - gasp! - a winking smiley face!

Kim has been spotted out with John Mayer and Kanye West over the last couple weeks, but insists neither is an option for romance.

“There are rumors that I’m dating a bunch of people right now," she told OK! Weekly at her fragrance launch in NYC. "If I’m out with some of my friends, I’m automatically dating them. You just have to kind of ignore them and live your life.”

As for a rekindled relationship with Austin? We have our doubts about what these Tweets mean. After all, standing is rarely the position Kim is in when it comes to professional athletes.
