Kim Kardashian attempted to break the Internet last week with a series of nude photos that were featured in the Winter 2014 issue of "Paper" magazine. Now, after the dust has settled, Kardashian gets to spend the next week talking to everyone about actually doing this shoot, and she started with an interview with Australia's "The Project." Before teaching host Rove McManus how to try and balance a champagne glass on his bottom, she chatted about deciding to strip down for the shoot."I was so honored and excited to work with [photographer Jean-Paul Goude] because he is a legend, and for me that was something I wanted to do to make myself feel confident. As a role model I'm not saying anyone else should do that, but for me it was an art project and it taught me to do what you want to do. I'm never one to preach, but I felt really positive and really good about myself. I love the photos, I did it for me, I hope other people like them." -
Lisa Rinna Claims That 'RHOBH' Is Similar to 'Melrose Place,' Just Without the Script
When "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" returns to Bravo this evening for its fifth season, there will be two new faces joining the cast that will be quite familiar to many viewers. Both Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson have played hugely popular soap characters with a great daytime television following. Obviously, Bravo is hoping this will translate into fantastic ratings right out of the gate, and it probably has every reason to believe that that can happen.Rinna left "Days of Our Lives" back in the 1990s to hop over to a plumb role on the original "Melrose Place" and, according to an interview with E!, being on "RHOBH" feels similar to that gig."This is very close to doing "Melrose Place" without a script in your hand. Like everything in life, it's all about timing. It's funny, when I went on to "Melrose Place" it was Year 5. This is Year 5 of "Housewives" ... To be honest with you, after talking about it with my husband, it's been a really great gig for me. It felt right, to be honest with you ... and I like an adventure, I was looking for an adventure." -
Will Justin Hartley's Performance on 'Y&R' Live Up to the Gauntlet Thrown Down by Michael Muhney?
Adam Newman finally returned to "The Young & the Restless" canvas last week by way of Justin Hartley's portrayal. While the character is not fully back in the Genoa City mix, Hartley has had enough interactive scenes to give viewers a feel for what is to come. The actor took over the role, which was recast after Michael Muhney was fired late last year amid a storm of controversy, knowing that he may have a bit of an uphill battle when it comes to winning over fans.Muhney's performance on "Y&R" kept longtime fans glued to their televisions, and after his last scenes finally aired this past January the show's ratings plummeted. Muhney's fans were vocal about how they were not going to support the show once he left it, and then they appeared to back up those words with action. Part of the issue was that Muhney was fired due to allegations of sexual harassment, and then not only were charges not filed, but "Y&R" actually considered rehiring him this past summer, leading many to believe he should never have been cut in the first place. -
Dr. Phil Insists That June Shannon Is a Compulsive Liar Who Purposely Dates Criminals
"Mama" June Shannon is continuing to try and save face in light of the scandal swirling around her. Supposedly, Shannon has been dating Mark McDaniel, a man who served 10 years in prison for molesting her then-8-year-old daughter Anna Cardwell. The repercussions of her dalliance have been far-reaching, as TLC has decided to pull the plug on her family's reality show "Here Comes Honey Boo Boo" and her children seem to be pitted against each other, depending on who or what they believe. Shannon has opted to break her silence and has hit up the talk-show circuit in an attempt to tell her own version of the truth.According to an interview that TMZ conducted with Dr. Phil, after listening to Shannon's explanations he has come to the conclusion that she is a compulsive liar who is drawn to criminals. Shannon's sit-down interview with him aired Monday, Nov. 17, and perhaps the biggest thing that we learned from it was that four of the men she has dated long term have been incarcerated — two of them for sex crimes, with the man she claims fathered Lauryn and Jessica Shannon not eligible for release until 2026! -
Dwight Howard Under Criminal Investigation for Child Abuse in Georgia, Admits Beating Son with Belt Buckle
It looked for a moment like NBA star Dwight Howard was going to be off the hook in a child abuse investigation that began in Florida. Howard's ex, Royce Reed, accused him of beating their 6-year-old son Braylon, with a belt buckle, something that was actually substantiated after a full exam by the Department of Children and Families. Dr. Kesler said that abrasions on the child were consistent with being struck repeatedly with a belt buckle, and Howard himself confirmed he had punished his son in that manner. According to Howard, it was how he was punished as a kid and had no idea it was wrong. Even after all this, Florida closed up its investigation, saying there was not enough credible proof. It looked like Howard was cleared — at least until yesterday.According to a new TMZ report, Braylon's injuries actually occurred in Georgia and the Cobb County Police Department had been asking for the file on this case for months, with no cooperation. After TMZ actually posted Florida DCF's findings, it gave Cobb County more leverage and the file ended up in their hands within a few hours. -

Kate Gosselin Allegedly Shared a Room with Bodyguard Steve Neild While Filming 'Celebrity Apprentice'
Kate Gosselin, formerly of "Kate Plus 8," has been brushing off rumors about her dating her bodyguard Steve Neild for years. She has insisted that he is just part of the hired help and Neild's wife, Gina, has posted family photos on Facebook a few times this year to try to quiet the rumor mill.The problem is that random strangers pop up reporting seeing Gosselin and Neild out together, and they always look cozy. Today someone else spoke up: Kenya Moore, who stars with Gosselin on the upcoming season of "Celebrity Apprentice," and her input was pretty incriminating.In an exclusive interview with "Us Weekly," Moore confirmed what many have suspected after learning that Neild was with Gosselin in New York City while filming the show. "That bodyguard was very interesting because they actually shared a room — I don't know if I'm supposed to say that — so he was around a lot," confirmed Moore. -
Kristian Alfonso Throws a Bit of Shade at the Notion of Peter Reckell Returning to 'Days of Our Lives'
Way back in the 1980s, soap operas were filled with supercouples, with one of the biggest being "Days of our Lives's" Bo and Hope Brady, played by Peter Reckell and Kristian Alfonso. The two quickly garnered a huge fan base that, even to this day, still rallies for them to reunite. Reckell and Alfonso returned to "Days" in the '90s and had an intertwined storyline until his character was sent packing a few years ago.Reckell has said he understood that his departure was basically making room for younger leading men and that it goes with the territory. But he has never agreed with how his character left town and believes the fans deserved better than what they got.In October, a series of tweets by Reckell led fans to think there was the possibility of him returning to "Days." He later admitted that he did make some calls to producers because he believed there was a logical reason to bring him back onto the canvas. In a recent interview, Alfonso could not have agreed any less and thought that bringing the character of Bo back just to allow Hope to move on was ridiculous. -
Kate Middleton and Prince William Scrambling to Find a New Press Secretary for Their Kensington Palace Office
Working as the official press secretary for Prince William, Kate Middleton and Prince Harry would be a great gig ... if anyone could actually land it. Their former media-handler left his position nearly two months ago, and while a string of extremely qualified candidates have been interviewed for the job, Prince William is reportedly making the process difficult.According to "The Daily Mail," securing a new PR person has become extremely tedious.Former BBC producer Ed Perkins quit Kensington Palace more than seven weeks ago, after only two years as their press secretary, and Prince William, Kate and [Prince] Harry have still not found a suitable candidate to succeed him."It's a nightmare," claims a senior courtier to the "Mail." "Prince William does not take advice readily — let's put it like that. Several well-qualified candidates have been ruled out." -
Apollo Nida Admits That He Lied to Everyone About Kenya Moore's Sexual Advances on 'RHOA'
We are not quite sure what to make of Apollo Nida's deciding to admit on camera to telling a pack of lies to the entire cast of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" for the past few years. He has insisted for the last two seasons that Kenya Moore had been sexting him, basically offering her services — something Nida claimed to shoot down because he loved his wife, Phaedra Parks. In last night's Nov. 16 episode, Nida offered an apology to Moore for lying about her, and when confronted by the rest of the cast he admitted that every sexual advance he claimed she made was a lie.Obviously, Moore has been vindicated after spending years dealing with non-stop hate from this crew thanks to Nida's lies, but why did he come clean now? Nida has claimed he wanted to make peace with people before he surrendered to prison officials back in September. But was this about him feeling guilty, or was it more like Nida decided to show everyone how dirty and vicious he is because he is going away for eight years anyway? -
