Learn About Melissa Rycroft's New Boyfriend In US Weekly

The Bachelor's Melissa Rycroft has a brand new gig on Dancing With the Stars -- and a brand new man, she reveals in Us Weekly's newest issue!

The 25-year-old -- who was proposed to, and then unceremoniously dumped for runner-up Molly Malaney six weeks later by Jason Mesnick on TV -- tells Us she's been quietly dating an insurance agent named Ty.

(Coincidentally, Mesnick's 4-year-old son with ex-wife Hilary Monrean is also named Ty.)

"We've been really good friends, but the timing was never right," she tells Us. "With all this going on, he's my support system. It's funny how things happen."

While Mesnick gets slammed by former Bachelor contestants (Andrew Firestone called him an "ass;" Trista Sutter fumed, "She deserves so much better!") -- it seems Rycroft has come out on top.

With tears in her eyes on Monday's DWTS premiere, the former Dallas Cowboys cheerleader -- who showed off sexy, sculpted abs as she hit the floor with partner Tony Dovolani -- earned a high score of 23 out of 30 after just two days of practice.

She also drew raves from the judges ("The Bachelor's loss is Dancing With the Stars gain," said Len Goodman) and support from the audience, who gave her a standing ovation -- and booed when video of Mesnick was shown.

"She feels like Cinderella right now," DWTS' producer Conrad Green says. "Someone's just called her up and invited her to the ball!"

Pick up the newest issue of Us Weekly, on stands now, to find out how how Ty and Melissa met, see what he looks like -- and learn what Melissa really thinks of Mesnick.

Shannen Doherty Returns To 90210

Shannen Doherty will return to 90210 for one more episode, TVGuide.com has confirmed.

Details on why the man-stealing, baby-wanting Brenda Walsh will be back for the season finale are sketchy, but we're guessing that it's no accident that Adrianna (Jessica Lowndes) will be just about ready to deliver by then, and is still in need of an adoptive parent for her impending bundle of joy.

When TVGuide.com spoke to Lowndes last month, she dismissed the Brenda scenario as "predictable," but would not confirm or deny the speculation.

When we last saw Brenda, she and Kelly were on the outs because of Brenda's indiscretions with Kelly's crush object/plotline-in-waiting Mr. Matthews. The girls eventually made up, once Kelly learned that dealing with Adrianna's unwanted pregnancy was an emotional strain on Brenda, who recently discovered that she can't have children.

It appears that Doherty's appearance will not intersect at all with Tori Spelling's two-episode reprise of her Donna Martin character, which begins April 14.

Howard K. Stern Arrested For Furnishing Drugs To Anna Nicole Smith

More than two years after Anna Nicole Smith died from a lethal cocktail of prescription drugs, authorities have filed the first criminal charges – targeting her former attorney and boyfriend, Howard K. Stern.

Stern, 40, a fixture at Smith's side for years who once claimed to be the father of her daughter Dannielynn, has been formally charged with conspiring to furnish drugs to Smith prior to her death, prosecutors said Thursday.

He was arrested and booked by police in Whittier, Calif., with bail set for $20,000, police records show.

Also charged with felonies were two doctors, Sandeep Kapoor, 40, and Khristine Eroshevich, 61, who allegedly prescribed medication unlawfully to Smith, according to the L.A. County District Attorney's Office.

Kapoor also was arrested and booked in Whittier. A warrant was issued for Eroshevich's arrest. The conspiracy counts allege the three defendants conspired to provide controlled substances to Smith from between June 2004 and January 2007. They also were charged with "prescribing, administering or dispensing a controlled substance to an addict," among other charges.

Patrick Swayze Speaks Out About Negative Stories In The Enquirer

Patrick Swayze is slamming the National Enquirer and other media outlets for reporting what he calls “inaccurate” details about him nearing “the end” of his battle with cancer.

The actor, 56, who was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year, has continuously tackled the Enquirer and other media outlets for printing what he has dismissed as little more than negative rumors.

On Wednesday, the Enquirer ran several photos of the Ghost actor appearing gaunt on the front cover of the magazine under the headline “The End.”

Counteracting the report, Swayze spoke out to People magazine, saying, “It's amazing to me that the tabloids such as the National Enquirer print such negative stories about me and my health when there are so many positive things going on in my life right now. I've started a new chemotherapy and, once again, I am one of the lucky ones with pancreatic cancer that is responding well to the treatment.

"I hope in the future, the press will think twice about printing inaccuracies and painting an unpleasant picture when I have so much to be thankful for at this time."

Jennifer Aniston And John Mayer ---Over Again--Really????

They wowed Hollywood with a high-profile Oscar date, posing arm-in-arm for photographs in what was largely seen as their official coming out as a couple after a year of off-and-on dating.

Then Jen headed to Europe to promote Marley & Me and John stayed in L.A. to work on his music.

And just days after Aniston returned, they were a couple no more, sources confirm to PEOPLE.

"They had some disagreements and decided to not continue to see each other," says one source. "Jen is moving on with her life like she always does. She seems happy." A second source says Mayer broke up with Aniston after she returned from Europe.

In the last few weeks, the former Friends star has been spending time with her close pal Courtney Cox Arquette and her yoga instructor-friend Mandy Ingber, while Mayer has been busy getting his new house ready and working in the studio.

This is not the first time Aniston, 40, and Mayer, 31, have split. In August 2008, Mayer held an impromptu press conference outside his gym in New York, explaining to the media: "I ended a relationship to be alone because I don't want to waste somebody's time if something's not right."

Still, lately the couple have seemed happy together. They met at a 2008 Oscar party last year, and were together at this year's show after a surprise appearance by Aniston as a presenter, with Mayer as her date.

In a recent interview, Aniston said she didn't believe any relationship was perfect, or was meant to last a lifetime. "Whoever said that every relationship has to last forever?" "That's hoping for too much."

Reps for Aniston and Mayer had no comment.

Mandy Moore Gets Married

All Mandy Moore and Ryan Adams needed for the perfect wedding were a tiny old brick church, a pastor they just met, a pair of silver bands and each other. "She was thrilled to be getting married. She was giddy but not in a childish way. She was obviously so happy," Pastor Steve Schulte, who married the couple this week at Whitefield Chapel at Bethesda Home for Boys on the outskirts of Savannah, Ga., tells PEOPLE exclusively.

The couple, who just got engaged last month, arranged for a last-minute ceremony, with one of their reps calling Schulte just the day before, saying a judge wasn't available and asking if the pastor could officiate. "I thought it was either somebody famous or somebody really bad," says Schulte, who agreed to the job, bringing along only a friend, wedding planner Chad Baker – and that was because they had another wedding event later in the day.

A little after 2:30 p.m. Tuesday, a black town car pulled up to the church on the breathtakingly beautiful grounds with blooming azaleas, dogwood trees, giant old live oaks dripping with Spanish moss.

Out stepped Moore and Adams and two other men. The couple dressed down: Moore, 24, wore a cream-colored, lacy tea-length dress and flat sandals, and Adams, 34, had on tight skinny jeans, a T-shirt with sport coat and sneakers. Schulte greeted them, and even when he heard their names, he didn't know who they were.

Only Moore, Adams and Schulte went inside the brick chapel with stained-glass windows and about a dozen wooden pews and a center aisle. (Baker stayed out in Schulte's car.) In the eight-minute ceremony, the couple held hands and faced each other as they exchanged silver rings purchased from a local jeweler. Tears welled in Moore's eyes and her voice quivered as she took Adams to be her husband.

"I now pronounce you husband and wife," Schulte said, and the couple kissed. After the pastor congratulated them, he shook Adams's hand and hugged Moore. As the couple walked out of the church, Adams turned and took Moore's face in both of his hands and gave her another kiss. They then walked to a little footbridge near the chapel where they hugged and kissed. "It was so romantic. It was awesome," says Baker. "I just can't stress how happy they seemed."

Twilight Series 3rd Movie, "Eclipse", Will Premiere Only 7 Months After "New Moon"

Twilight might not be a heavy hitter at this year's Oscars, but fans of the book-based film have the best kind of news to celebrate this weekend.

Summit Entertainment is expected to officially announce a green light for a second sequel, Eclipse, to hit theaters on June 30, 2010, says Variety.

That would give those who obsess on all things Bella, Edward and Jacob a new bite out of the series just seven months after the first follow-up, New Moon, premieres on Nov. 20 of this year.

For the uninitiated, New Moon finds Taylor Lautner's Jacob, a werewolf, emerging as a central figure.

Eclipse then forces Bella (Kristen Stewart) to choose between Edward (Robert Pattinson) and Jacob.

Real Housewives of NYC's Alex Loses Her Job With Victoria's Secret

Count Alex McCord as one of the millions of Americans being hit by the bad economy.

The Real Housewives of New York City star, known for going on extravagant shopping trips with her husband Simon Van Kempen, was just laid off from her visual merchandising job at Victoria’s Secret.

“Now I’m more a Real Housewife than I ever have been before!” McCord tells PEOPLE. “The whole time this show’s been on people have said ‘Define this term housewife,’ ‘Are you a real housewife?’ And I always said, ‘Well, I own a house and I am a wife! But now I’m a real housewife.”

The layoff was not related to McCord’s being on the Bravo reality show. The loss of her full-time job was one of 90 positions cut at the company’s New York headquarters — part of a 10-percent reduction in the brand’s workforce.

McCord had been at the job for two years. She started after a period of freelancing when her sons, Francois and Johan — with Van Kempen — were young. “I had a great time, and even up until the last week I was there, I was gaining new skills,” she says. “My job was my green zone — when I was not Alex from Real Housewives but Alex who’s in beauty.”

What’s next? “The challenge will be to find something meaningful to do, where I am the real Alex McCord and not just a Real Housewife,” she says. Of course, that will depend a lot on employers, and whether they look at her resumé and skills as a graphic artist, “or if they’ll expect me to come into the interview wearing a leopard-print dress, looking for connections,” she says with a laugh.

The McCord-VanKempens have a plan to manage the financial storm. “Alex has got until the end of April [when her severance package runs out] to replace her income,” VanKempen tells PEOPLE, “otherwise we’ll have to start cutting back on discretionary income.”

Since VanKempen still has his job as a hotel manager, McCord says the family shouldn’t have trouble paying their monthly bills.
But her salary was the one that tended to pay for their infamous shopping sprees, not to mention the cost of their full-time nanny.

“If we need to make cutbacks, that’s easy: don’t go shopping!” McCord notes. As for their annual trips to St. Barth’s, “That’s still happening. But if it comes to needing to make cutbacks, I would rather not shop than have to add to the unemployment by laying off our nanny. And that has nothing to do with not wanting to take care of our children … She has a family as well, and that would be terrible for her.”

But won’t they miss the shopping? She reveals: “Those shopping sprees that you see on the show? That’s only once or twice a year. We don’t have time to shop like that. We do killer kamikaze shopping sprees for like two hours and then don’t shop for six months.”

American Idol's First Night With The Final 13

One by one, American Idol's first-ever Top 13 dipped into Michael Jackson's expansive songbook Tuesday, some confident that their vocals would shine, some hoping that passion, personality and sheer will would help their performances rise above the already karaoke-favorite material—some of the hardest out there to imitate, let alone make new.

Lil Rounds: The 23-year-old frontrunner—the word brilliant has been getting a lot of play lately—channeled Josephine Baker from the shoulders up and Etta James with her sound on a bluesy version of "The Way You Make Me Feel," one of the hittiest of the Jackson hits we heard tonight. Randy declared for the 80th time that season eight had really kicked off on the right note, and Paula called Lil "the force to be reckoned with."

Scott MacIntyre: This season's walking inspiration took to the piano for "Keep the Faith"—a wise choice considering that song isn't a Jackson fave and he really thrives on the ivories. His strong vocal was more than enough to keep him sailing on through, although Simon warned him, "It's fine being artistic, just not on this show."

Danny Gokey: The soulful church music director with the groovy glasses lightened the mood a bit with "P.Y.T. (Pretty Young Thing)" and reaped the rewards—although his performance proved there's not an impromptu dance step in the book that will please Simon. "It doesn't matter, I really like you tonight," the Brit added.

Michael Sarver: "I just wish we knew what you did for a living," Simon deadpanned as he critiqued "You Are Not Alone," as done by the country's best-known oil rig roughneck. The ballad, one of the harder Jackson songs to get out of your head, served Sarver well, complementing the burly family man's warm, solid (if unextraordinary) voice.

Jasmine Murray: The 16-year-old wild card finalist assigned herself quite the task with "I'll Be There," Murray did a solid job, hitting enough big notes to avoid embarrassment, but, although Jackson pulled it off when he was barely 13, Murray's performance ventured into high-school concert night territory.

Kris Allen: Having already tested the water with "Man in the Mirror" a couple weeks ago, Allen theoretically could have been more jaded than the rest as far as trying to impress the judges with Jackson goes. But he managed to do something different by injecting guitar into "Do You Remember the Time." His voice hit a few bum notes, but everything's better with guitar (even though it was hard to hear against the back beat). "It was kinda cool for me, kind of Jason Mrazy," Randy the wordsmith said.

Allison Iraheta: Like Jasmine, she's 16, but Allison booms and rasps as if life has given her a reason to sing "Give in to Me." Having solidly established herself in the semifinals, the crimson-headed teen proved she has the chops to play with the big girls. "You're a rock star up there, keep doing what you're doing," Paula said, though Simon advised her to "lighten up a bit." The kids can't win with him, can they?

Anoop Desai: Someone was due to bust tonight and unfortunately it was lucky finalist No. 13. The fan favorite tried his hand at "Beat It" and it came out as you might expect—like the most-played track in a karaoke bar. Even Paula thought so. "To me, that song is untouchable," she lamented. "And it actually looked a bit stupid," Simon added, somewhat unnecessarily.

Jorge Nuñez: Simon couldn't wait for it to end, but we thought Jorge made the most out of the Jackson 5's "Never Can Say Goodbye." Of course, we tend to like the old-fashioned stuff... Like with Anoop before him, Kara DioGuardi couldn't feel the emotional connection.

Megan Corkrey: So, Jackson sang "Rockin' Robbin" when he was a kid, but really it's Bobby Day's song. Oh well, Megan tackled it anyway. We felt it totally suited her rough 'n' tumble voice but Simon called it a "stupid song choice." Meanwhile, Paula thought the song choice great, but didn't hear the sound she's come to love.

Adam Lambert: At the other end of the spectrum lay Adam's version of "Black or White," which was rockin', current, jazzy and jaunty all at the same time. A really good vocal and, while it was a risky song choice, he did more to make it his own than all the other contestants put together. Paula predicted an appearance in the finals for him, while Simon deemed the performance "In a totally different league" than everything else that occurred onstage tonight.

Matt Giraud: Of course the dueling piano player accompanied himself on "Human Nature" and he sounded quite soulful—and looked quite sexy. But at the risk of sounding like a pack of swooning school girls, we admit it was hard to focus because we were still wrapping our minds around Adam's performance.

Alexis Grace: The first through to the Top 13 and the final performer tonight, the velvety voiced chanteuse ripped into "Dirty Diana." She hit fierce note after fierce note, but Simon—running out of time at this point in the broadcast—warned her about over singing. "You're back!" Kara exclaimed, though it was more of a "long time no see" than a "that's the ticket!"

Iron Chef's Cat Cora Is Pregnant--But There's A Twist

Iron Chef's Cat Cora is pregnant with a baby boy. And she'll be in the delivery room sooner than you think!

Because her wife Jennifer, is giving birth in April to another boy.

But wait, it’s even more complicated than that! Cat is carrying Jennifer’s biological child — while Jennifer doesn’t know whose she is pregnant with! Eggs from both women were implanted in her, and they have decided they don’t want to know who the “real” mother is.

As for the dad. He’s the same in both cases — but it was an anonymous donor, so neither the couple, nor their kids will ever know who he is.
The two births will bring the family up to six. Cara already has two sons, Zoran and Caje.

"Jennifer and I are thrilled to go through the wonderful experience of pregnancy together,” she says. “We started the in-vitro process 5 years ago. This has been a miracle for us and we'll now have 4 beautiful children."
