The second season of Jersey Shore starts tonight. Yay! What if you didn't watch the first season? What if you just need to brush up on your guido particulars? What if you want some inside scoop? We've got you covered.

And for me! Because I love chick-flicks. The premise of the show is as follows: a (barely) geeky girl is taken under the wing of a style/life adviser, made over, and forced to tell her crush she likes him.

Usually the pageant parents on Toddlers and Tiaras send me into a sixty minute long cringe-fest, but this clip featuring eight year old Haley and her dad doing a re-interpretation of the "Thriller" dance onstage is actually really heartwarming.

Best-looking woman in America Christina Hendricks went on an L.A. morning show and made a passing reference to taking a bath. Minutes later, the male host is still unable to form sentences, and admits he is picturing her naked.

So Rep. Charlie Rangel was unable to finalize any sort of settlement today before the House ethics committee revealed and read the violations (13!) against him, publicly. Does this mean the window has closed, and a trial's inevitable?

If you thought Barack Obama would try and get out of pressing the fashion flesh at the fundraiser Vogue editor Anna Wintour hosted for him last night, you're wrong. He supposedly talked to just about every guest at the event.

Rachel Bilson will return to How I Met Your Mother, CBS adds more gay characters to their roster, William Shatner is ironically confused about twitter, more Sad Keanu, and Jon Hamm as Superman?

Thanks to The Chipmunks and their moneymaking Squeakuel, Hollywood is going to make every two-bit old cartoon animal into a live-action movie. Somehow this one fooled Dan Aykroyd, Justin Timberlake, and Anna Faris into thinking it was a good idea

Hot in Cleveland is a hot mess. This is the show that happens when menopausal monkeys get together and sh*t out a script. Even the amazing Betty White gets dragged down by the atrocious dialogue.

At the end of the month, True/Slant will be no more. Good while it lasted.

TONIGHT: Project Runway debuts its 8th season, Bethenny Frankel shows off her new baby, Futurama gets stuck in a time machine, NPH on Craig Ferguson, and your summer is about to get more guido in it: Jersey Shore returns!

Today may be the day a House ethics panel announced its charges against Rep. Charlie Rangel for alleged ethics violations, but that didn't stop him from sending out invitations this week to a "birthday gala" for his other special day.

Trying to figure out what Zac Efron's newest film, Charlie St. Cloud, will be like? Look no further than this early review from Premiere.com: Movies. Hollywood. Fantastic. Premiere.

A 22 year-old white guy in Florida (NATCH) was walking along, listening to some Gucci Mane, when a 14 year-old black kid with seven friends totally kicked his ass—for listening to rap while white. MLK weeps so fucking hard.

Today at Gawker.TV, Zac Efron talks about his very-hetero visit to the strip club, Jimmy Fallon breaks video game records, Between Two Ferns with Steve Carell, and the best interview to ever come from having a rapist on the loose.

Congratulations to buin for being the first person to answer today's Freeze Frame. Click through for the answer.

HarperCollins has released the cover for Sarah Palin's second book, America by Heart: Reflections on Family, Faith, and Flag, set for release in November. We see "Flag" represented, but not so much "Family" or "Faith." What a con artist. [via]

When you're living la vida Hoda and Kathie Lee, it sometimes becomes necessary to bring the club to you, which is exactly what happened when Flo Rida performed this morning. Ain't nothing like dancing sexy and sippin' on bub...at 11AM.

Many of you are probably asking yourselves: How will I make money in our jobless, dystopian future, in which the "normal" economy is dead? The answer: gambling, drugs, and cigarettes. Everything old is new again! For now.

George W. Bush is slightly more popular nowadays compared to a couple years ago. (That doesn't mean he'll be campaigning this fall.) But he will be "flooding the airwaves" around election time to promote his memoir, which has Republicans fretting.
