The Amazing Race’s Allie was “shocked” by team’s elimination

AmazingRace0405.jpg

After a first place finish in last week’s Seychelles challenge, father/daughter pair Allie and Steve Smith plummeted to elimination after struggling through episode eight. “I was shocked. But everything is based on luck, so anyone can go,” Allie tells In Touch of her team’s first to last place drop in the sixteenth season’s Malaysian leg. Suffering navigational errors through the winding Penang streets with an unreliable taxi driver, Allie and Steve couldn’t seem to catch a break. But when the duo arrived at the Pinang Piranakan Mansion pit stop and heard the devastating news of their elimination from host Phil Keoghan, the father and daughter still kept their spirits up. “We were bummed. We wanted to keep having fun! But even getting on the show was unbelievable to us. We knew we tried our best,” Allie, who is now living in San Diego, CA, adds. The sunny 23-year-old only sees the bright side of the experience, despite losing out on the million dollar prize. “We’re even closer. We just have this crazy bond only the two
of us know. We had so much fun the entire time, and met some incredibly kind people along the way,” she says of her relationship with her professional baseball coach dad after competing on the CBS travel series. Watch the five remaining teams battle for the win Sunday nights at 8 PM EST.

Sandra Bullock-Jesse James Divorce Countdown: Actress Prepares Papers, Jackass Leaves Rehab


Sandra Bullock has reportedly drawn up divorce papers, having gone through the stages of anger and surprise and started planning her next move.

While nothing is official, this intel is sketchy at best and no announcement has been made from either Sandra or Jesse James, it wouldn’t shock us.

“Her attitude toward Jesse hasn’t softened since she found out he was cheating on her,” a close source said. “She’s been betrayed and cheated on.”

“She’s not getting over that.”

The Oscar winner’s husband has been tied to four alleged mistresses – Michelle “Bombshell” McGee, Melissa Smith, Brigitte Daguerre and one other.

However, new reports indicate (anonymously, thank you Radar Online) that James admitted to Sandra that there was a total of seven mistresses.

Sandra Pic

Jesse was reportedly in rehab in Arizona receiving treatment for sex addiction, although he is rumored to have left late last night or this morning.

Although Jesse’s lawyer described him as “a broken man” of his own volition and wanting to save his marriage, Bullock sources said that’s unlikely.

There was a moving van at the house this weekend. Enough said?

“Why would she want to get back with him after what he did to her,” the source said. “But she’s a strong woman, and she’s doing the best she can.”

Part of her coping strategy, perhaps, is that Sandra has reportedly drawn up divorce papers, although like Elin Woods, she has yet to file them.

The source said Sandra is not even discussing details: “Right now she’s very closed. After everything she’s been through, who can blame her.”

What do you think? Sandra Bullock should …

Out, About, Adorable: Kendra and Her Hanks


While a handful of celebrities were celebrating Jesus Christ’s resurrection at exclusive parties yesterday, Kendra Wilkinson took a more subdued approach to the holiday.

She led husband Hank Baskett and son Hank Baskett IV on a walk through the park. Unlike the football during the New Orleans Saints’ onside kick following halftime of this January’s Super Bowl, Hank didn’t drop his son…

Cute Little Kiss

Regarding her tall drink of water, Kendra recently gushed to OK! Weekly:

“I have a great man who wants to be there. He changes diapers, no problem. In fact, while I was in New York last week, he sent me pictures of the baby’s poop!”

TMI, K Dubs. TMI!

Still, we must hand it to the family: they make for adorable photo subjects, even when they likely called in the paparazzi to snap these shots of them on a Sunday afternoon. Click on each picture for a closer view…

Tiger Woods Press Conference: Subdued Golfer Apologizes, Dodges Questions at The Masters


Set to tee it up this week for the first time since his shocking sex scandal, Tiger Woods fielded questions at a press conference at The Masters moments ago.

The embattled golfer refused to say why he entered rehab but stressed that he is not addicted to prescription drugs and apologized to fellow players and fans.

“I know that the players have been bombarded by questions … and the public as well,” Woods began. “A lot has happened in my life the past five months.”

While seemingly sincere and more relaxed than in his initial apology statement in February, Woods dodged specific questions of his now-infamous car crash.

“I had a busted up lip and a pretty sore neck. That was it,” Woods said, insisting that following the accident, he did everything “to the letter of the law.”

Woods was asked numerous questions about Dr. Anthony Galea, HGH, and using Vicodin and Ambien; only one alluding to Joslyn James text messages.

He also confirmed that Elin Woods will not attend the tournament this week. Some excerpted lines from Tiger Woods’ press conference today below …

At the Masters

“The times have changed.” – Tiger Woods

One of the hardest parts of coming back: “The constant harassment to my family. My wife and kids being photographed everywhere they go, being badgered. It’s tough … difficult on them, because it makes it tough for us to heal.”

On dominating golf while leading a double life: “Winning golf tournaments throughout all of this has been irrelevant compared to the pain that I’ve caused to my family, my kids … I’m going to have to explain all this to them.”

On whether he left too many loose ends – text messages and such – and whether there was a part of him that actually wanted to get caught: “I don’t know.”

On the weight lifted from him: “I’m no longer living a lie.”

On his new mentality: “In order to help people you have to first learn to help yourself … I take full responsibility for what I’ve done. I don’t take that lightly.”

On pursuing Jack Nicklaus’ record 18 major golf championships (Tiger currently has 14): “It’s not about winning championships, it’s about how you live your life … I have not done that the right way for a while. I can be a better man going forward.”

Tiger Woods’ press conference was totally …

Erin Andrews to dance despite death threats

ErinAndrews0405.jpg

After suffering the nightmare of having her privacy invaded by a creepy
stalker last year, Erin Andrews has now been receiving death threats, her attorney says. The ESPN correspondent and current Dancing With the Stars contestant has received at least a dozen sexual and increasingly violent e-mails, which were sent to her at sport radio’s The Dan Patrick Show. “It is unfortunate that there are sick people who prey on the fears and threaten the well being of others,” her attorney Marshall Grossman says in a statement. Despite the latest danger to her life, Erin vows to keep competing on this season of the ABC hit show with her partner, Maksim Chmerkovskiy. “She’s not the type to be easily threatened. She has every intention to meet her obligations,” her attorney adds. The blond beauty has requested extra security on the set of show, which will air live tonight on ABC. Last month, Michael David Barrett was sentenced to 30 months in prison for stalking and secretly videotaping Erin through hotel peepholes and posting the footage on the Internet.

Holly supports boxing beau Benji!


It looks like Benji Madden is having no trouble impressing his new
girlfriend, Holly Madison! The former Girls Next Door star and some galpals cheered on the Good Charlotte guitarist as he knocked out former MTV host Riki Rachtman at Ellis Mania in The Joint at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Las Vegas on April 3. “Holly was making no effort to hide her
feelings for Benji. She cringed every time a punch was thrown his way, and gasped in delight when he won,” an onlooker tells In Touch of the blond bombshell, who donned a “Team Benji” shirt as her man dominated the boxing ring. After Benji’s big win, the couple celebrated at club Wasted Space later in the night. As In Touch previously reported, Benji and Holly are getting so serious, they’re discussing moving in together!

Tony Dovolani Predicts Big Things From Kate Gosselin on Dancing with the Stars Tonight


Kate Gosselin is going to wow us tonight.

With her dance moves, not her diva-like behavior. Or so says her partner, Tony Dovolani, who Tweets: “Paso Doble is going to be Kate’s best dance :-) ”

That’s not saying much. However, Kate’s much-maligned DWTS counterpart adds that “Kate is doing a great job. I’m looking forward to tomorrow :-) ”

Gosselin began rehearsing at 6:30 a.m. on Easter Sunday for the dance. But that didn’t stop the mother of eight from quality time with the family too.

“The kids woke up early to Easter baskets on the table at their assigned place. I already had been up dancing for an hour and came upstairs at precisely 7:30 a.m. to watch all their faces as they dove into their overflowing baskets!” she blogged.

Kate Gosselin and Tony Dovolani

The eight Gosselins then watched mom rehearse downstairs.

“After they filled their bellies with a mixture of chocolate and jelly beans, I returned to the basement to complete my routine once more, and then in standard fashion, we danced our routine for the kids, who clapped and screamed,” Kate reports.

Will the audience respond with similar enthusiasm tonight? Or will they scream in horror at her dancing terribleness and whining? We’ll have to wait and see.

Regardless, Kate says she’ll be approaching it with a new attitude, writing on blog that her partner “deserves a medal” for helping console her frayed nerves.

Can a renewed spirit and a Jon and Kate-themed routine help her win over the judges and voters on Dancing with the Stars tonight? Tune in and find out!

Taylor Lautner Shirtless Scene: Deleted from New Moon


New Moon was a solid follow-up to Twilight. But we know one way in which the sequel could have been even better:

More Taylor Lautner shirtless!

Granted, we were privy to a number of scenes in which Jacob eschewed a shirt… but would anyone have objected to one or two (dozen) more?

Fortunately, a couple weeks after the New Moon DVD hit stores, a deleted, five-minute scene from the film has been released. In it, Jacob visits Bella’s room, tries to explain himself and, most importantly, is half-naked. Peep it now:
