BEFORE WE BEGIN...
I'm Steve Gustafson and we're back for another week of celebrity gossip, hot women, and goofy fun. I read through all the tabloid magazines and gossip sites so you don't have to. Plus, I love to plaster!

Do you enjoy the 5 & 1 format? Of course you do! Check this out. First up is the NEWEST member to the 5 & 1 club...Stewart Lange with his The MMA 5 & 1! Next is The Music 5 & 1 by Jeremy Thomas. Bringing up the rear is The Wrestling 5 & 1 by Greg De Marco. Check it out! Oh yeah, besides writing about the zany lives of famous people, I cover movie news! Yes, that's right. Each and every Monday I do the Big Screen Bulletin.

Check out my exclusive interview with Ian Edelman, creator of the HBO hit series How to Make it in America!

While at Exxxotica I was able to chat with the adorable Lexi Belle! When asked to pick one of her favorite films she's been in, she happened to pick one of MY favorites...well, I'll let Lexi tell you about that!




VS
Quick rundown of the rules. The winner stays! 4 wins gets you to the Hall of Bang! It's that simple. Feel free to throw in your suggestions for that number one spot in the comments or email me at [e-mail]!

Our OFFICIAL HALL OF BANG!

Stacey Dash
Salma Hayek
Jennifer Love Hewitt
Sofia Vergara
Mila Kunis
Scarlett Johansson
Keeley Hazell
Mya Jane
Susan Coffey
Holly Peers
Denise Milani
Penelope Cruz
Arianny Celeste!

Once we have 16 members in the Hall of Bang we'll be having a tourney to crown Miss Bang! That's right. From the sweet 16 to one, where YOU decide who's numero uno!

I have to admit this one surprised me. I knew UFC Octagon Girl Arianny Celeste was popular but I didn't know if you all would embrace her enough to put her into the Hall of Bang! But last week she easily pulled out the victory over Sara Jean Underwood, winning 52 votes to 19. Arianny truly earned her way in, beating a number of tough opponents! In doing so she becomes the 13th member of the Hall! That means we have 3 more spots before the tournament!

Let's welcome Arianny!



Let's fill those 3 spots! In the first run-off Rhian Sugden took down Amy Childs, 39 votes to 23. She'll face Kate Upton who defeated Vanessa Marcil, 41 votes to 23! Looks like this should be a close competition to see who will take the top spot!

Rhian Sugden VS. Kate Upton



VOTE BELOW!

We need a NEW CHALLENGER! With only 3 spots left, tell me who's missing! I've asked a number of people who they consider the most worthy of a spot and the two biggest names off the bat were Halle Berry and Angelina Jolie. Yes, Halle has been in the mix a couple of times in the past but has never been able to make a solid run at the top. Jolie is entering fresh. Which one will face the champ next week? That's up to YOU!

Halle Berry VS. Angelina Jolie

MYSTERY RUMP!
So in MYSTERY RUMP/RACK it's real simple. I present to you a pick of a mystery rack (or rump!) and YOU tell me who it is. Easy, right? For some of you this might present a challenge so I'll give you a couple clues each week. But they won't be obvious clues. You'll have to really look hard to figure it out!

Who was it last week? Too easy! 411mania's own Ben Piper knew for a fact that the RACK belonged to...Tiffani Thiessen! Tiffani and I are the same age. Crazy.



Let's keep it going. Clues for this week:

* She's a 5 & 1 fave!

* She's had a sex tape!

Gentlemen, start your guesses!



Stop by next week for the reveal!


VIDEO-O-GO-GO
Another Exxxotica exclusive! The hardest working woman on the planet, Nina Mercedez spoke with me. Yes, she's beautiful and smart...and intimidating! But she's on top of the game, balancing a heavy load!

She also put a dent in my wallet by telling my fiance about where she gets her shoes.




Alright, let's get to the actual Hollywood 5 & 1. I go through 5 things out of Hollywood this past week that made me scratch my head plus our "& 1" Model of the Week! Let's go!




Love on the Rock. No Big Surprise.
Looks like he picked the right time to get a management team to control his tweets. Who knows what he MIGHT have said. "Ashton Kutcher" tweeted a statement, writing, "I will forever cherish the time I spent with Demi. Marriage is one of the most difficult things in the world and unfortunately sometimes they fail. Love and Light, AK."

Yes, Demi Moore is filing for divorce from Ashton Kutcher, she told the Associated Press. "As a woman, a mother and a wife, there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred, and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life," she told the news service.

In September, it was alleged that Kutcher had cheated on Moore with Sara Leal while he was in Las Vegas. He denied the accusation. Moving vans were spotted at the couple's home in October, leading to speculation that the couple was splitting. The pair were spotted at Bruce Willis's vacation home earlier in November, supposedly working on their marriage.

Kutcher and Moore were married in 2005; she was 43 years old, while he was 27 at the time.



Watch out for the wraith of Bruce!


The Puppet!
A few things came out this past week about Kim Kardashian but I wanted to touch on her blog that she made about visiting the Los Angeles Children's Hospital.

First, charity work is wonderful. Truly is. Celeb's LOVE it because it's the easiest way to tweak their image and it's something the respectable media really can't attack without coming off like a douche.

Good thing I'm not respectable.

How transparent is this? I can almost imagine Kris Jenner's botox stretching tight as she tells Kim, "Honey, you have to get out there and be nice to the less fortunate. You have to be the "good girl" again for your fans!"

Here's what Kim her publicist wrote: "I can't believe it's almost December. This year has flown by so fast! Last December I went to LA Childrens' Hospital and spent some time with the amazing kids there. I remember last year they were all so upbeat and smiley despite being in the hospital for the holidays. I think sometimes we forget just how lucky we are to be able to spend the holidays with our friends and family, so seeing how brave and spirited these kids were was really uplifting. It was really an inspirational visit for me and I'd love to go back this December again and visit everyone."

Expect a trip to a poor neighborhood or her to announce her affiliation with a well known charity group to complete the deal.

Let's end on a quick story about Tyler Perry and his quick thinking to attach his name (and promotion for his new movie) to Kim. During the PR storm, he took the stance of defending Kim, writing that she is one of the most influential public figures in the eyes of teenagers.

He says, "I said to one of my producers, who else is out there that young people are looking up to?' One of my producers showed me pictures that his daughter had taken of several hundred kids lined up around the corner to get into a Kardashian store," Perry continued. "They wanted to meet Kim. I thought, what better person! She literally has millions of young people following her. I thought and still do think, that it would be very responsible of her to be a part of this film. To have the young people that look up to her, see her in a film that is about, what happens in life when you make the wrong choices."

This stuff is so transparent, I don't even need to add commentary. It's a very telling mark when you consider Kim Kardashian a role model to the youth. **SHIVER**



You can almost see the strings!


Kendra on Lindsay Action!
I guess you can call this a seal of approval. Kendra Wilkinson had to give it a lot of thought, but at the end of the day, she supports Lindsay Lohan's desire to pose nude in Playboy. Kendra says, "She always came off like a girl that would do Playboy so I am not really surprised," the reality personality said of Lindsay's decision to go full frontal. "She is almost like a hippie type of girl."

I think she uses that word but doesn't know what it means.

"I am so back and forth about it," Wilkinson said of Lohan, who will be channeling Marilyn Monroe.

Lohan as Monroe? We've seen that trainwreck before.

Kendra went on to say, "The one thing that I can say is that in this day and age, if you have a way to make that kind of money, then go ahead." Wow. I can imagine the type of motherly advice she's been dolling out. BUT she does bring up a good point when she says, "If that's what's going to bail her ass out of jail, I mean, go for it. You never know. She could need the money to bail herself out!"

You gotta love reality TV folks.



Funny how she's giving Lohan advice.


In Other News: Water is Wet!
In one of the BIGGEST NON-SHOCKERS of the year, Kat Von D spills the beans on Jesse James!

"Spill the beans." What a weird phrase.

Anyways, when she started dating James, Kat was eager to "prove the world wrong" about him. Now, she says, she deserves "a big fat 'I told you so,' from everyone." "Today I encountered the 19th girl to add to the list of people Jesse cheated on me with during this last year," the former L.A. Ink star wrote Sunday in a blog posted on her Facebook page. "I kept going back and forth in my mind as to what the best way would be for me to release and let go of any residual feelings remaining from that toxic relationship."

A trip to the doctor would be a good start. James had acknowledged to People that he had "poor judgment" in response to allegations he was unfaithful during his marriage to Sandra Bullock. Von D says she's "sad" knowing her ex seeks "validation through the attention of women over being a good father, a sincere friend, a better coworker, and a happy individual." "I tried my best to go through all of this without venting, or complaining, or fueling more tabloid mumbo jumbo," she writes. "[But] this is about me making peace with myself, and forgiving myself for making some bad mistakes."

James and Von D, who had originally been planning a summer wedding, split for good in September. At the time, Von D told People, "I wish Jesse nothing but the best in life and in love." James has no comment, but a source close to the former West Coast Choppers owner told People Von D's "claim is ridiculous."

Sadly, I'm more apt to believe HER over HIM.




What's next for Kat?
