Sean”Diddy” Combs is looking for fresh talent to sign to the new Bad Boy Records.
Diddy has left Warner Music Group. Now, sources say Jimmy Iovine’s Interscope is preparing to announce Combs is moving his Bad Boy label there.
But Warner plans to hold onto some of the Bad Boy artists it has under contract — meaning Diddy will have to start hunting for fresh blood.

Sarah Palin’s memoir is reportedly complete and will be released on November 17, a few months ahead of its planned spring publication. Palin completed her memoir in just four months with the help of a ghostwriter. The book, curiously titled Going Rogue: An American Life , will be first released as a hardcover before it’s available as a digital edition on December 26, in order to “maximize hardcover sales over the holidays.” A first press of 1.5 million books has been ordered.

Amy Robach, considered the hottest female on TV, is engaged. The “Weekend Today” anchor (Miss Georgia 1995) has agreed to marry Andrew Shue, the soccer-playing hunk from the original “Melrose Place” who co-founded Do Something, the nonpartisan nonprofit that encourages volunteerism. The wedding should be fun. Shue’s sister, Elisabeth, was Oscar-nominated for “Leaving Las Vegas,” and his brother-in-law, Davis Guggenheim, won an Oscar for directing “An Inconvenient Truth.”

SNL cast member Jenny Slate marked her debut last night by dropping the f-bomb in a skit with Megan Fox and Kristen Wiig called “Biker Chick Chat.”
The Saturday Night Live season premiere, hosted by Megan Fox, with musical guest U2, also introduced us to new cast member Nasim Pedrad, but the episode will best be remembered for Slate’s swear word.
As gauged by Slate’s reaction, the expletive was clearly a slip of the tongue. It will be interesting to see if the FCCSource: Bitten and Bound RSS Feed

Michael Bloomberg is an imperious, irritable oligarch who has purchased the mayoralty of New York City for life. And the New York Times has something to say about him: He puts salt on his pizza.
Bloomberg famously wants to regulate what you eat and how you eat it—he banned the use of transfats in the city, forced restaurants to post nutritional information, and has nagged New Yorkers about all the salt they eat. So it's a worthy enterprise to point out, as the Times does, that heSource: Defamer RSS Feed

I’ve talked before about Gossip Girl’s Taylor Momsen and how I believe that she’s headed for disaster. She’s 16 and way too young to be working the clubs. I can’t help it — it’s the mother in me.
