Oh man … last night’s ep of The Hills was chock full of drama of varying degrees … there were lies, there were tears and there was a pool party — what else could one ask for in a single episode of their favorite faux reality TV program?

Last night’s ep centered on Lauren LC Conrad’s return and the fallout from Stephanie creepin’ behind her back to try and mack on her ex Doug. On the Speidi front, mama Montag came for a visit and she ended up getting into it with Spencer … man, drama city! After the jump, find out who was lying about what, who was crying about what and how nothing can really stay a secret for long on The Hills in the ep titled Don’t Act Innocent …

At the risk of offering a very spoilery spoiler for tonight’s episode of 90210, I have some amazing news to share … which, I guess has already been shared by the title of this post. I apologize for my excitement but this, well, is just so exciting — they said it wouldn’t happen, we were told it wasn’t going to happen but … Dylan McKay will be making a return of sorts on tonight’s new ep of 90210:

But that’s all I want to say about this startling and very exciting revelation out here in the open. After the jump, check out a preview video of Dylan’s return to the world of 90210 …

Paris Hilton just debuted her new single/theme song My BFF on On Air with Ryan Seacrest on KIIS FM here in LA … which I present to all y’all for your aural pleasure:

The new track will serve as the theme song for Paris’s new MTV competitive reality TV show Paris Hilton’s My New BFF (which debuts on MTV tonight). You may recall that Paris revealed that her boyfriend and Good Charlotte guitarist Benji Madden is helping her out with her new music (and it is my guess that he most likely provided the lion’s share of help on the creation of this track) which is very evident by the way that is sounds. So, without further ado, check out Paris Hilton’s new single My BFF for yourselves:

The song deffo has a Good Charlotte feel to it … and Paris’s voice does sound a lot more mature. HMMM. What do y’all think?

Britney Spears isn’t the only popdiva promoting and releasing new music these days … Ms. Xtina Aguilera has got some new shizz of her own to promote as her new single Keeps Gettin’ Better is released for sale today. While her new Greatest Hits compilation Keeps Gettin’ Better: A Decade of Hits won’t be available for sale until November 11 (and only at Target stores), her new single Keeps Gettin’ Better is available for download now on iTunes. Here are a couple new promo pics of Xtina to go along with her new album:

It’s official, I’ve decided that I really love this track. It’s fun, catchy and really infectious … try as I might to deny it, I kinda love it now. I also love that both Xtina and Britney are back to releasing new music at the same time again … it kinda feels like 1999 again. At this point, tho, there is no reason for competition … each woman has achieved staggering success in their own right … we, as pop fans, can just sit back and enjoy it all together. It’s a pretty good time to be a pop music fan again … we get to enjoy new music by the poplets we know and love and not have to deal at all with those pesky boybands in the process. It’s a total win/win situation, don’t cha think?

Jennifer Hudson, who is currently in NYC doing promo work for her just released new album Jennifer Hudson, was snapped proudly showing off her new engagement ring (you may recall that J. Hud recently announced her engagement to reality TV personality David Otunga, better known as Punk on the VH1 competitive reality show I Love New York) around town so I thought it would be nice to feature it right here on the blog as well. I can’t help but notice how big the diamond stone is and she does seem pretty happy with it … I’m just curious how much a ring like that costs and who actually paid for it:

Now, I understand that Mr. Otunga is a lawyer in Chicago, IL and I know that lawyers make a lot of money … but how lucrative a lawyer can he be to be able to afford a rock of this magnitude? And if he really is this successful a lawyer, what the hell was he doing on reality TV in the first place? Y’all may recall that Britney Spears was the one who paid for her own engagement ring back when she wed Kevin Federline … mebbe that’s the same thing that’s going on here. And, for the record, I see nothing wrong with it. Jennifer Hudson really deserves to enjoy herself and her money, I think it’d be great if she did end up paying for her own engagement bling. What I’m really curious about is why J. Hud and Punk have never (to my knowledge) been photographed together. It seems odd to me that the couple would choose to never be seen together in public and yet, they are headed to the altar together. The whole scenario seems very strange to me … I’m not sure if I totally buy it all just yet. Doesn’t everything about the relationship between Jennifer Hudson and David Otunga seem really shady to all y’all?

After surprising fans yesterday afternoon by showing up in person at the Z100 radio station in NYC to give a brief interview with DJ JJ to talk about various exciting things she’s got planned for the future (ie. world tour next year, bitches!!!), Britney spent a nice quiet night on the town refraining from doing anything more substantial than just enjoying a quiet dinner with friends. Wee! Here are a couple pics of Brit in the Z100 studio yesterday:

Z100 even uploaded video of Britney’s interview, which you can watch HERE. I must admit, I’m still pretty jazzed by all the info that Britney gave in her interview yesterday afternoon. The thought of a world tour just … kills me … I am really excited to see Brit Brit on stage again :)

After stopping by Z100, Britters made her way to the Upper East Side later on in the day to grab a bite to eat at Serendipity 3 … here are a couple pics:

I’m just really, really very happy to know that Britney is staying on task, staying out of trubs and seems solely focused on making sure her comeback is a huge success. Her last album, Blackout, is such an amazing disc, I can only wonder how successful it could’ve been had she given this much attention to promoting it last year. Of course, we all know that she was in no position to do so but … at least, this time, she has the chance to really do it right. Keep doin’ what you’re doin’, Britney. We’re all with you.

Janet Jackson, who is currently on her Rock Witchu Tour, was suddenly struck ill during her soundcheck yesterday evening in Montreal, Canada and had to be rushed to the hospital, needless to say she did not take the stage for last night’s performance:

Janet Jackson has been hospitalized, a rep said Monday. The singer “got suddenly ill during the sound check” before her concert in Montreal and had to be rushed to the hospital, according to a statement released by W&W Public Relations. Jackson, 42, is being monitored at the hospital, and hopes to reschedule the show. No further information was given about Jackson’s condition.

Because there is very little official info about this hospitalization, there isn’t much to go on other than speculation and conjecture. While I would assume that her illness would have to be pretty severe to warrant a trip to the hospital, my hope is that her affliction isn’t serious and that she will be back on the road again soon. Get better, JJ … there are hordes of fans out there wishing you well and awaiting your return to the concert stage.
