In case you hadn’t heard….

Top Model regulars Jay Manuel and J. Alexander (Miss J) are about to get their own spinoff show on The CW.

The network has already ordered a pilot of Operation Fabulous - or, as we like to call it, Operation Fagulous!

But the boys don’t want you to think it’s a spinoff, especially Jay Manuel.

Jay is speaking out to get the story straight. And he wants his fans to know a few things. Like the fact that it’s not a straight-up makeover show and that America’s Next Top Model isn’t going anywhere.

Jay says, “A lot of people are wondering if this means J and I are leaving Model. And no way. That is not true. We would never leave the original show.”

Of course not, they’re probably still under contract!

Jay adds, “It is definitely not a spinoff. I can definitely say that. This is a new series that is a separate world from Model and will really help women try to elevate their lives.”

It sounds like a spinoff to us, only less bitchy. What’s the fun in that????

According to Jay, each episode will feature five women from one town who get makeovers and compete until one of them is the winner.

Oh, there’s the bitchiness - thank God!

From there, the winners from each town will then go and compete in a “bigger competition”.

Then, the final winner will get a makeover…..for their hometown.

Sounds a bit like Extreme Makeover: Home Edition.

LOVESit!

Jay adds, “We can’t talk about what the prize is, but I can tell you, it is a major prize.”

VH1 has just picked up the second season of Dr. Drew Pinsky’s Celebrity Rehab show. Cuz we all love some good trainwreck TV!

The new season will premiere on Thursday, October 23rd. Again, it’ll consist of eight one-hour episodes. And just like the first time, the second season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew will show the “real-life experiences of celebrity patients undergoing detoxification and treatment at a center in the Los Angeles area.”

Set to appear again this season will be trainwreck Jeff Conaway. Rehab didn’t work the first time around! Second time’s the charm????

Joining him will be Rod Stewart’s son, Sean Stewart and former video vixen Tawny Kitaen.

All three of these messes are reality TV “veterans.”

Also joining is some tranny-looking mess, Amber Smith, along with Steven Adler from Guns n Roses, Rodney King, and American Idol reject Nikki McKibbon.

Gary Busey will also be appearing to lend a helping hand after reportedly not using cocaine for 13 years.

“Reportedly”!

The Writers Guild of America wants to boycott Ozzy Osbourne’s new show.

On Wednesday, the WGA warned all of its members not to work on Ozzy’s upcoming comedy/variety show on Fox.

The reason?

The show’s producer, FremantleMedia North America, has offered writers a “sub-standard contract.”

They want the writers to be treated as if they’re working on “half-scripted” shows, which would cut down on the show’s writing fees.

According to the WGA, writing for The Osbournes: Loud and Dangerous, would usually be covered under the guild’s basic agreement.

However, Fremantle, wants to treat parts of the show as “reality content” which isn’t covered in the agreement. Fremantle had indicated that the writers would not be responsible for writing that part of the show, which the WGA has refused.

While some shows produced by Fremantle have been covered by the guild contract, many others - like American Idol - are not.

Last summer, the WGA even went on a bus tour, which they called the American Idol Truth Tour, and followed the show’s audition all over the country to talk to the public about what they say are substandard working conditions for writers and staff.

David Shall, Fremantle’s general counsel and executive vp of business operations, is accussing the WGA of running a campaign of “defamation and negative propaganda” against them.

Shall said they contacted the WGA in good faith to hire writers for their Osbourne show.

But the WGA has chosen to have its members boycott the show and any writers found working for them could face a fine.

Boycott it, we say!

This new Osbourne show is just like all the other variety shows of the past - like Carol Burnett. It should have the same contract for the writers!

Get ready, y’all!

Katie Price Jordan and Peter Andre plan to settle in Hollywoodland for a few months staring in January of 2009.

According to reports, Jordan thinks this America stint will allow her to kill two birds with one stone.

First, and supposedly foremost, she’ll be able to rehab her troubled marriage with Peter. Time away from England could ‘breathe fresh air’ into their relationship.

Ha! Usually LA air breaks marriages apart.

Good luck with that!

Secondly, Jordan and Peter will be working hard to ‘break’ the US market.

Their E! reality show kinda bombed the first time. Are they planning on bringing something new to the table?????

This will certainly stir things up on The Hills.

It has TROUBLE written all over it - and we love it!

Lauren Conrad’s former friend, Audrina Patridge, was spotted having lunch while being filmed for their reality show this past wekeend.

But guess who was with her at lunch???

None other than L.C. frienemy Heidi Montag!!!!!!!

DRAMA!

Audrina and Heidi met up for some coffee.

And with the recent news of L.C. hooking up with Audrina’s ex, Justin Bobby, circulating the internet, we bet Heidi had a lot of advice to offer.

Oh to have been a fly eavesdropping on that conversation!!!!!!

A friend of cancer-stricken British reality icon Jade Goody revealed to The Sun that although close, fighting cancer isn’t the star’s worst nightmare, it’s “dying and leaving her children.”

The insider also revealed that Jade’s chemotherapy treatment will take about a year, as opposed to just the few months she expected.

The star had been praying that her chemo would only take six to nine weeks so she could again care fully for sons Bobby, five, and Freddie, three.

The friend went on to state, “She’s really, really upset. Jade is really worried that she will feel so ill and weak that she won’t be able to look after the boys or do anything.”

In a previous interview Jade dedicated her battle against the disease to her sons, but admitted, “I have to be realistic and face the possibility I might not see them grow up.”

The paper saying that her survival rate is 50/50.

So sad.

Stay strong, Jade.

Reality ’stars’ are living large these days!

Audrina Patridge moved into a Hollywood Hills villa complete with a waterfall in the backyard when she peaced out of Lauren Conrad’s guest house.

Dayum!

The budding ‘actress’ recently chatted with In Touch Weekly to give them the scoop on her move out of chez L.C.

Here’s some of the best bits:

Why are you moving out?
I felt like it wasn’t really my house. I felt like a guest and it was uncomfortable. It also didn’t have enough storage space. I have a lot of clothes and accessories!

Was Lauren surprised?
She knew I’d been looking for the past few months. I was very honest and straightforward with her. She said she was happy for me.

Will this help your friendship?
Yes. If anything it’s going to be better for our friendship. When I was in the back house we took each other for granted. Now, we’ll have to make more of an effort.

Will you get a roommate?
No, I plan to live alone. But I have a guest room so I am sure I am always going to have friends or family visit, especially my sister Casey.

We wouldn’t be shocked to hear of an Audrina spin-off show.

Wonder if MTV kicked in some money to help her buy that new, fancy pad????

There’s nothing “complicated” about the cancellation of Denise Richards’s reality TV show.

No one cares!

A source told The Insider, “The numbers started out pretty good - just over 1.5 million tuned in for the premiere episode. But the audience has dropped off.”

We guess folks would prefer watch Dina Lohan pimp out her younger daughter because her show’s staying while Denise’s receives the axe.

The best part is no one has bothered to give Denise the bad news.

She was spotted running around the Silverspoon Emmy gift lounge in Beverly Hills this wek excitedly telling everyone that her show had been renewed.

But, E! is now saying that no decision has been made.

She still might get the axe!

We hope the cameras are rolling when that poor unfortunate intern is sent to deliver Denise’s pink slip because that would be a killer finale!

Literally!

According to a new report, the number of gay and lesbian personalities on non-scripted TV continues to rise.

From Project Runway to Work Out the gays have hit reality full force as contestants, consultants and judges.

Fagulosity!!!!!!

This, however, is in stark contrast to reports that the number of gay and lesbian characters on scripted TV has declined.

A lot of it sucks anyway.!

Plus, Project Runway star, the openly gay Tim Gunn suggested in a past interview that non-scripted gay portrayals may have more impact than scripted ones, “They’re just very honest portrayals. Versus all the contrivances when they’re scripted.”

And, unlike the narrow minded olden days, advertisers are spending money on the gay-friendly reality shows as they’ve grown more comfortable with gay themes.

The gays are taking over!

More diva drama in Hollywood!

As we told you earlier….

Jenny from the Block suspiciously completed the Nautica Malibu Triathlon on Sunday after dropping out of her role as a celebrity judge for the season finale of Project Runway because of a “foot injury.”

That’s funny, we remember making up excuses to get OUT of Physical Education in high school!

It’s rumored that the real reason J.Lo abruptly pulled out of Runway is because she was denied a role in an upcoming Weinstein film - the same Weinstein Company that produces the Heidi Klum hosted TV show.

Loves it!

As a result, Klum and husband Seal are said to have pulled out of their roles as guests to Marc Anthony’s 40th birthday party in New York on Sunday night.

After running, biking, and swimming for 2 hours and 23 minutes J.Lo miraculously recovered in time to hop on a plane and party to the nines.

Sounds like she might have been using the “Katie Holmes marathon strategy”!

Lopez’s rep, Leslie Sloane, explained that, “(Lopez) pulled out (of “Runway”) because she had an injury and had to have it rehabbed so she could compete (in the triathlon),” adding, “(Lopez) has no issues with Harvey (Weinstein).”

Uh huh!

Interesting note, J. Lo’s trainer said this past weekend that she had NOT injured herself. Now, her publicist is saying that she did get injured.

Someone is lying!

Get ready to rock and roll, Oz style!

According to a new report, The Veronicas are close to sealing a reality show deal with MTV.

It should make for an interesting show.

Just recently, one of the band’s twinsies, Jess, was involved in a celesbian fling and a nude photo scandal.

What else do the girls have in store for us?

Jess revealed to a music writer that the project makes sense because, “We document everything we do anyway.”

We’ll just kick back and wait for some juicy ‘leaks’.

Speak about an Emmy catfight.

One reality Television designer star and one reality TV slutty star will be creating gowns for this month’s Emmy Awards.

Both Lauren Conrad and Project Runway winner Christian Siriano will be showing their stuff.

We wonder if Conrad will even design the dresses herself, or if she’ll get some professional help to do it.

The Siriano and Conrad will be designing gowns for the “trophy girls”, though we bet LC will design a baby doll dress, tight on top, and very loose and flowy towards the bottom.

We’re hoping she’ll surprise her with something different.

In a statement Siriano states, “It has been so inspiring watching the Emmys each year to see who is going to be the most fabulous diva at the show. … It will be such an experience seeing my own creation on stage.”

And this should be interesting.

Just earlier this year we reported how Siriano had some not-so-nice words to state about Conrad and her Hills designer friends.

Siriono stated, “I mean, it’s fun and flirty and young, but they’re not innovators. None of them will ever be an innovative designer. Buyers and editors are looking for longevity, and hopefully they will see that in me.”

We love it cause it’s true!

We’ll have to wait and see if the two divas will clash.

The 60th Primetime Emmy Awards will air on September 21st.

Warning: Spoiler alert! Spoiler alert!

Do not read on if you don’t want to find out what happens next on your favorite scripted reality show!

Last week, Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port were snapped filming an episode of The Hills at a Beverly Hills restaurant.

According to the paps, they were filming some pretty emotional scenes.

LC apparently pretended to cry as Whitney left the set.

We’re assuming this is the episode where Whit tells the brat that she’s leaving LA for her Diane Von Furstenberg gig in the NYC.

LC’s fakery is like a train wreck. You don’t want to look but you can’t help it!

How did she ever land her own show?????

Tara Conner, the disgraced 2006 Miss USA who Donald Trump supported after news broke of her alcohol and drug use, will be working on her very own reality show.

The MTV series, currently titled LaDette to Lady, will have Conner hosting and helping to transform girls from “problematic to prim and proper while exposing details of her own tough times.”

Oh, how exciting.

Conner was first in a reality TV show back in 2007 called Pageant Place, created by Donald Trump, which followed her life living with other beauty pageant contest winners.

We still don’t know one person who watched that show. We doubt anyone will watch the new show either!

As for Conner, it seems she’s still not even good enough to be considered D-list.

Tara tried to attend last Saturday’s “Declare Yourself” Red, White & Blue Summer Oasis Party in the Hollywood Hills.

However, she was denied entrance!

The party was filled to capacity and she wasn’t allow in.

Cheryl Burke (from Dancing With the Stars) and some socialite wannabe were also denied entry.

Sucks for her.

Maybe Conner can let Burke make a cameo on her show?
