Seth Abramovitch · 10/11/11 02:39AM

Even before the growing crowds of Occupy Boston migrated from downtown's Dewey Park Square to the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway early this morning, police began warning protesters to move back, or else. First they tweeted a message to @Occupy_Boston: "The BPD respects your right to protest peacefully. We ask for your ongoing cooperation." Then they went old-school, hand-distributing fliers that read, "If asked to leave an area, please do so peacefully."

Tonight, E! brought us the conclusion of Kim's Fairytale Wedding, a four-hour special about Kim Kardashian's August nuptials to Kris Humphries.

Well, until tonight, that is, as you'll see in this four-minute highlight reel (with a bonus clip at the end featuring Kris Jenner seamlessly working sponsor LivingSocial into the mix).

With her giant boobs-cum-giant exposed boobs and an on-air fart, Nancy Grace has given us a schadenfreude fix every week so far this season on Dancing with the Stars, and tonight was no exception. After Tom Bergeron teased her as next up, the camera cut to Grace, who—in an attempt to draw attention away from her own "twins," perhaps—was busy combing the chest hair of her DWTS partner, Tristan MacManus. And boy oh boy was she enjoying it!

Is James O'Keefe a Fugitive?

John Cook · 10/10/11 04:38PM

As we mentioned earlier, right-wing hitman James O'Keefe was spotted lurking at the Occupy Wall Street protest in Manhattan's Liberty Plaza today. That might not be good news for O'Keefe, since he's on probation and requires the permission of a federal magistrate judge to leave his home state of New Jersey. And guess what? To judge by his court file, he never got permission. Oops.
