Middle-sister Stephanie is off meth and planning to host a striptease show, says the New York post.
Jodie Sweetin of “Full House” fame has kicked her habit and is slated to host a show called, “Pants-Off Dance-Off” on Fuse.
The show will feature people of all ages taking off their clothes to their favorite music videos.
“Cribs” and “Pimp My Ride” don’t seem so dumb now, do they MTV hatas?

Planes, Trains and Automobiles
“Snakes on a Plane” won’t be in theaters for months, but Snakesonablog.com says possible sequel titles have already been registered with the MPAA. The titles: Snakes on a Boat, Snakes on a Train, Snakes on a Plane 2, More Snakes on a Plane and Snakes in Space.

She’s on tonight
Shakira’s now officially as addictive as Columbia’s other export. “Hips Don’t Lie” is now the most played pop song in U.S. radio history, says Contactmusic.com
Nielsen says last week the song was played more times in one week than any other, knocking off last year’s Gwen Stefani smash “Hollaback Girl.”
Even more ban-an-as: It’s also Martin’s top played ringtone, much to the chagrin of my friends and co-workers.

McPhee a Scientologist?
She may have gotten beat on American Idol, but Katharine McPhee has some powerful celebrity fans, says Hollywood.com.
Apparently the songstress has taken classes at the Los Angeles’ Church of Scientology, where she met Katie Holmes, who now wants her to perform at her wedding ceremony with Tom Cruise.
Yikes. That’s a career killer if I ever heard one though I’m not surprised to learn there’s something seriously wrong with McPhee.
Sigh. My girl Kellie Pickler would never get suckered into this stuff.

Wal-Mart buys Beyonce show
Say what you want about Wal-Mart, they know how to throw a meeting.
Beyonce Knowles performed at the retailer’s shareholders meeting in Fayetteville, Ark. last week, says The Associated Press.
American Idol Taylor Hicks also performed for the crowd of 15,000.

O.J.’s naughty night
With the 12th anniversary of the Nicole Brown/Ron Goldman murders coming up, O.J. Simpson is back in the news. First, there was a Punk’d-style prank show starring the former football star, now there’s a purported sex tape.
A tape allegedly showing The Juice having sex with two women is on sale online, says The New York Daily News.
Simpson’s lawyer says O.J. is on the tape clothed, but that the sex portions are faked.
“This tape is garbage,” said Galanter. “And we can prove it.”
I don’t doubt O.J.’s lawyer can prove pretty much anything.

Line of the week
“Donald Rumsfeld went to Vietnam this week. Bush was going to go over but his dad got him out of it.” — Jay Leno

The most random thing ever
The world’s largest bagel weighed 868 lb., says the Guinness Book of World Records. Brueggers Bagels, an American company, made the giant bagel and displayed it at the 2004 New York state fair.

Rave
The two records I’m really feeling right now are Gnarls Barkley’s “St. Elsewhere” and Panic! At the Disco’s “A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out.” The soulful, genre-bending “St. Elsewhere” is particularly great. P!atD is coming to the 9:30 club later this month, but it’s already sold out.

Rant
As you probably know, folks in Harrisonburg fought World War III over the downtown parking meters last year.
The anti-meter faction won, and promptly removed the meters. That’s all well and good, but now the Burg is left with hundreds of ugly posts sprouting from the pavement.
First question: Why take the meters off the poles, instead of just putting up a sign saying fines aren’t enforced? (The answer probably has something to do with ending the debate, once and for all).
Second question: When is the city going to finish the job and get rid of those awful poles?
