It's Lorenzo! Snooki confirms baby's name
Reality-TV show star Snooki confirmed that she and fiance Jionni LaValle are going to name their baby Lorenzo.
In an interview with the entire cast of "Jersey Shore," Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi's female cast members squealed the name before realizing it might not already be out yet. "Well, it's a name she's thinking about," Jenni "JWOWW" Farley quickly added. "No, it's done," confirmed Polizzi, who is due in September. Her spinoff with Farley, Snooki & JWOWW, currently airs on Thursdays on MTV.
At seven months, Polizzi, 24, is looking great and says she's had a fairly easy pregnancy. But lately, she admits, "my back is killing me!"
Price, Stone engaged
"Lipstick Jungle" actress Lindsay Price and celeb chef Curtis Stone have decided to make things official and tie the knot, nine months after welcoming son Hudson. Their rep confirmed the news of their engagement to Us Weekly.
"We were down in the south of Italy," Stone told the mag of the proposal. "We took a little break, and … I did it! I popped the question. We had a beautiful balcony in Positano, and I did get on one knee."
Price and Stone began dating in 2009 and welcomed Hudson last November.
Stone currently stars on Bravo's "Around the World in 80 Plates," while Price was last seen on the short-lived sitcom "Love Bites" last year.
Tosh tries to backaway from rape flak
Daniel Tosh, comedian and host of Comedy Central show "Tosh.O," has been the subject of controversy because of a joke on the topic of rape.
He apologized for making a female audience member the subject of his joke a couple of weeks ago at the Laugh Factory. The situation has caused a firestorm of opinion, ranging from "rape is never funny" to "lighten up, everyone."
Now, the latest Tosh news is that he is "scrambling" to take out all references to rape — of which there are apparently plenty — from the pilot episode of his new series, "Brickleberry."
