Hilarious Twit Pic: Tyra Banks Towering Over Katie Couric
On Tuesday, Katie Couric tweeted a photo of herself posing with Tyra Banks on her show "Katie" - and the difference in height was phenomenal.
"I knew @tyrabanks was tall-but seriously???" Couric wrote. The talk show host is 5' 4", while the supermodel is 5' 10" without stiletto heels. The photo makes Banks look like a giant.
Banks recently opened up about her desire to start a family. She told Steve Harvey, "I'm really ready to have some babies. I want babies! I've always wanted them, but I've been saying 'I want babies in three years' since I was, like, 27. And now I'm 28. No, I'm 38."

$16 Million Contract Puts Britney Spears On TV's Top Paid List - Behind Judge Judy
Britney Spears is reportedly set to rake in $16 million as a judge on The X Factor, but the incredible amount isn't nearly enough to put her on top of TV's best paid list.
Assuming The X Factor has the same amount of episodes this season (26), Spears would pocket a bit over $615,000 an episode. That makes her the second highest paid per episode in primetime currently - Ashton Kutcher makes $700,000 an episode for Two and a Half Men. She is also far behind predecessor Charlie Sheen's whopping $1.2 million an episode. It would put her ahead of William Petersen's previous salary on CSI ($600,...

Fashion Fails Of The Week: Lump Of Coal Edition
We spend so much time admiring the stars who wear their best fashion when out and about, it's only fair to point out those who failed. This time of year, that means they're getting a lump of coal in their fashion stocking!
Charlize Theron appeared at the premiere of Young Adult in this black and white Stella McCartney dress. It starts off okay as a black one-shoulder dress, but it gets progressively confusing as it goes on. Mesh to black, then swirling into a white bottom with bad hem job? We don't get it.

On top of the world again after charming American Idol fans with his warm and wacky ways, Aerosmith rocker Steven Tyler, 63, opens up to PEOPLE magazine in this week's issue about his four kids, eight rehabs, and stunning comeback.

Will Katie Couric And Matt Lauer Reunite?
Fans of the ‘Today’ show of yesteryear might be having a cow right about now, as Bart Simpson would say.
Word on the street – or at least in the New York Times – is that Katie Couric and Matt Lauer might reunite for a syndicated talk show in a year or two.
That’s a big maybe, but surely syndicators’ mouths are watering at the thought. It’s widely known Katie Couric is unlikely to renew her contract with CBS News for her anchor job when her five-year contract expires this summer. ‘Today’ host Lauer is said to be mulling a departure from that program at the end of his contract in December...

Justin Bieber Talks YouTube Discovery, 'American Idol,' And Signature Hair Flip (Video)
Justin Bieber appeared on @KatieCouric to talk about his meteoric rise to stardom since posting a handful of YouTube videos and capturing the attention of music managers.
Justin says he recorded the video for his friends. However, after finding the file was too big to email it to them, he hosted it on YouTube and sent them the link. He realized that it was starting to get popular because it had more views than he had friends. One of his first offers came from Maury Povich, who was turned down by Justin's mom because his problem wasn't "finding out who the father was." Ouch!

Undecided This Election? Vote For Comedy
Political humor has always been a mainstay of stand-up, late night, and sitcom writers. And the ratings always skyrocket in the year of a Presidential election, thanks to gaffes and guest appearances (and sometimes we’re lucky enough to have a few candidates with a sense of humor).
With every presidential race determined to be the most important of all, it's imperative that we as Americans take a step back and laugh at the process of selecting our President - as well as the "characters" seeking that office.
So who offers the best fodder for the next four years? Let’s take a look:...

'Survivor' Fantasy Cast: Who Would You Strand On An Island?
I'm an avid fan of "Survivor." I have been since the first episode of the first season. What's not to love? With the amount of scheming, deception and backstabbing, I always found myself thinking of people that I would want to see wasting away on "Survivor." This list usually included people that I intensely disliked because the experience can be tough on some people.

Fox Debuting Pair Of Shows About TV News: One A Sitcom, The Other Unscripted
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) - Fox is rolling out two ''news shows'': a sitcom starring Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton as fictional news anchors in Pittsburgh, and an unscripted show starring a former bikini model-turned-anchorwoman in Texas.
Unveiled at a Television Critics Association gathering here this week, both series are meant to deliver laughs - and ratings - but not necessarily headlines. That makes Grammer's job a whole lot easier.
