Despite its popularity, "Jersey Shore" would change its face if the latest report is true. MTV reportedly is trying to manage their budget for the show and is thinking that hiring a whole new cast would be cheaper than keeping the current ones' salaries raised.

The plan is, Snooki, The Situation and the rest of the gang would wrap the fifth season and the fresh faces would take over in season 6. "They will leave on a high note!" a source told Us magazine. The original gang would start shooting the fifth season in New Jersey this Monday, June 27. "After this group comes back from Italy and shoots season 5 this summer, that will be the end for them," the source added.

You're supposed to be a RELIABLE source for news on music and this is the bulls**t u post??"

The reported tweet allegedly read, "'I admit it. I provoked Chris [Brown] to hit me. It not entirely his fault. #imSORRY?' "

"I think they should go off in the sunset together, quite honestly," Dempsey said of his character and Ellen Pompeo's, who made their marriage official to adopt a baby in season 7. He added, "I think they should maintain it, and he should leave as McDreamy as possible I think."

The clip is directed by Richard Cullen, his partner of two years, in collaboration with animator and film makers Andrew Philip and Gavin Elder.

"Talk Talk Talk" is recorded for Darren's upcoming studio album. When talking about the song with Showbiz Spy, he said, "I would describe it as effervescent. It's quite synthy, and as a first cut from a record, it's a nice introduction. It's probably the most dance and electronic influenced song on there - the rest of the album is a bit darker."

Classic rocker Peter Frampton has filed for divorce from his wife of 15 years, Christina Elfers. The "Baby, I Love You Way" singer filed the papers in Los Angeles Superior Court last Tuesday, June 21, and cited the usual irreconcilable differences as the reason for the separation.

Beside focusing on the love story, the clip also features J-Hud strutting her stuff in a chair-dance sequence. "This is the first time that I've had the chance to dance," she said. "But it was probably the part I anticipated the most and I actually had a lot of fun. I thought I accomplished it. You be the judge."

Gearing up for the fall premiere of "Terra Nova", FOX has debuted three new posters for the sci-fi drama series. Instead of capturing the scenes, the one-sheets give fake warnings about some dangerous creatures like a slasher and deadly insects which likely await a colony which is transported back 85 millions years on the show.

Following a family who embarks on an incredible journey back in time to prehistoric Earth as a small part of a massive experiment to save the human race, "Terra Nova" indeed has dinosaurs.

When discussing about the fight against bullying in an interview on HDNet's show "Inside MMA", the actor portraying Jay Pritchett on "Modern Family" admitted that he, too, was bullied when he was a kid. He continued to point out what made him feel like he had no one to turn to at the time.

"When I was bullied, there was a certain code of honor when you were a boy at school. You didn't go get a teacher and complain about a guy that's bullying you because that was worse," the 65-year-old said. "And I didn't tell me parents at home because I feel like my father would just say, 'Well go fight the guy. I don't care how big he is.' So that was a problem. I didn't really know how to handle it myself."

Reggie Bush didn't look far to replace Kim Kardashian. The football star is now dating actress slash singer Melissa Molinaro, who if not by fate, would be mistaken as Kim's twin. Reggie who broke up from Kim in March 2010 has been seeing Melissa for a few months now.

The look-alike is a little familiar in the Hollywood scene because she is the Canadian who stars in Old Navy ad. The "Super C-U-T-E" commercial was played 1.7 million times on YouTube in its first few weeks and it prompted her friends and family to give her a call about how much she resembles Kim.
