The new issue of Us Weekly reports that Jessica Simpson — who endured much body bullying in January for performing in a pair of unflattering high-waisted jeans — recently visited some TV networks to pitch a reality series about society’s scrutiny of women’s bodies.
The premise of the program, titled The Price of Beauty: “She and a friend set off on a road trip around the world in search of what people find beautiful and why,” says a source.
(In a recent Vanity Fair cover story, Simpson talked about criticism of her figure: “It comes with what I do, and I know that every day the media’s going to challenge me.”)
The insider continues that the onetime Newlyweds star, 28, will be hands-on with the show — and will even try some of the “shocking things that women do to make themselves beautiful. Picture Fear Factor.”
The singer’s rep said, “Jessica is indeed working on a new show, but network details have not been finalized at this time.”

Lady GaGa graces the cover of the latest issue of Rolling Stone naked except for some strategically-placed bubbles.
The Poker Face star kicked off her recent US tour wearing a ‘coat’ of plastic transparent balls over a nude leotard and tights.
But for the US magazine’s Hot List edition, the singer goes a step further, appearing completely nude save for a sprinkling of pink bubbles to protect her modesty.
GaGa tops off her latest eye-catching look with her white blonde hair teased into a candy-floss frizz.

“My daughter one day decided that she wasn’t speaking to my husband, myself and my son and that’s how it’s continued for the last, oh gosh, four or five years.” She added, “And it was sad, that’s what killed my husband actually. He just didn’t want to live after that. He has just done everything he could possibly do for his daughter and she wanted no part of him once he couldn’t do anything for her.”
When I read the comments on some sites, I thought she was misquoted but you can hear say those exact words come out of her mouth in the 94.7 WMAS interview.
I am flabbergasted that someone can say that about their own child in the media like that. To me a statement like that is like a dagger in the heart. I can’t even imagine what would possess her to say that in public like that. If I were Tori, I am not sure I could forgive her for saying that. Could you?

Freddie Prinze Jr will be joining the cast of 24 according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Sources said Prinze is joining the cast of Fox’s “24″ as a regular, playing Davis Cole, a recently returned Marine who runs CTU Field Ops and wants to follow in Jack Bauer’s (Kiefer Sutherland) footsteps.
It will be nice to have him back on TV! Sounds like if the show continues past Kiefer Sutherland’s contract, they are setting up Freddie to take over for Jack Bauer.
Now I wonder if Sarah Michelle Gellar will be moving with him to LA or stay in NY with her pilot and wait to give birth to their first child?

Katy Perry was doing an interview with 2DayFM and they asked her who she would shoot, shag and marry? She said she would marry Pete Wentz because he seems like a good dad, shoot Benji Madden because someone has to go down and she would shag John Mayer. Actually here is really what she said about the latter, “I couldn’t marry John Mayer, it’d be so intense. I’d definitely shag the sh!t out of him though. I’ll go on record saying that.” Can’t say I blame her because I have heard that is something he is really really good at!
OK, let’s take bets how long until these two start shagging…

Kathy is featured in the July/August issue of Every Day with Rachael Ray in the “Celeb Fridge” feature.
Kathy’s been getting so much buzz for her lean, sexy figure, and of course we can always rely on Kathy for honest, border-line obnoxious, and undeniable funny commentary.

One glance of her fridge:
“Yes, it does look like I live on a liquid diet – but not the same type as my mom. She lives on boxed wine.”.
Assistant or slave?
“Maybe I shouldn’t be saying this but I basically forced my assistant, Tiffany, to become my personal chef. One day she made the lethal mistake of letting me know that she could cook, and the rest is history. I’m all for getting every last bit of blood out of the stone – it’s just not enough that she files my paperwork and runs my errands.”
Her ideal dinner party guests:
“I’d invite you, my mom and ‘the divas’: Dolly Parton, Cher, and Liza Minnelli. You’d make great food, my mom would be hammered, and the divas would be singing and dancing. Oh, and I’d invite the head of the Academy [of Television Arts & Sciences], so I can work on getting another Emmy.”
Words of Wisdom:
PRIORITIZE.
“I value my Emmys more than people, and even bring them to dinner parties. They’re quite versatile actually. I’ve thought about hanging calamari from talons or using the globe as a whisk.”
PLAN AHEAD.
“To get Rachael to cook a dinner party for me, I’d invite her as a guest and tell her she won’t have to do a thing. When she walked in, I’d fake-cry and say the caterer canceled. But I’d magically have her favorite ingredients piled right on the counter.”
BE BALANCED.
“Life can be tough, so I don’t make it more difficult by starving myself. I admit that I sometimes forget to eat because I’m mesmerized by my awards. But usually I find that avoiding certain foods, like carbs, just makes for cranky, bitter, and angry people. I’m bitter enough already!”
