Barry Williams
, the actor who played Greg Brady on "The Brady Bunch," claims his ex-girlfriend threatened to kill herself and him after losing a beauty contest ... and he's obtained a restraining order to keep her far away.


Williams claims Elizabeth Kennedy made the death threats on August 20, 2009. Then, Williams claims in legal docs, on November 23, Kennedy accused him of having an affair with a co-star and then ran in the kitchen and tried pulling a knife from the knife-holder. Williams says he subdued her before she could do harm, but he warns, "I know that she will definitely try to harm me once she is aware that our relationship is now over."


He also claims Kennedy stole $29,000 from his bank accounts after allegedly stealing his pin number. And, Williams says, Wells Fargo has opened a fraud investigation after surveillance cams caught Kennedy on tape.


The judge granted the restraining order which makes Kennedy stay 100 yards from Williams. The judge also ordered her to move out of their apartment.

Jennifer Lopez to perform on So You Think You Can Dance



Jennifer Lopez is taking a mulligan.

After a spill at the American Music Awards, the “Louboutins” singer is teaming up again with So You Think You Can Dance choreographers Tabitha and Napoleon Dumo (known as Nappytabs) to do a holiday-themed number for the season finale of the show.

Although Lopez redeemed herself with a performance on Ellen, Tabitha says they’re not taking any chances this time.

“We’re steering clear of some big jumps,” Tabitha says. “I feel like we don’t have to be dangerous anymore … Though I appreciated seeing guys with their shirts off personally — [there will be] no sweaty backs, no shirtless guys. We’re going to have some classy looking guys.”

At the AMAs, Lopez fell — but quickly recovered — after climbing on the bare backs of her male dancers.

Napoleon says the finale performance of the song will be different from the boxing-theme she did previously. “The idea is kind of a cross between a Marilyn Monroe, ‘Santa Baby’ and a ‘Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend,’ but using shoes. Shoes are a girl’s best friend nowadays instead of diamonds.”

Adds Tabitha: “What would a girl want for Christmas? Of course it would be a shiny pair of Louboutin shoes … It’s for the holiday season [and] we’re putting a holiday twist to ‘Louboutins.’”

Part of the twist, they say, will be to feature some familiar faces in the routine.

“We’re going to incorporate some girls in the performance that were in [SYTYCD] seasons past. I don’t think any other artists that have performed on this show have actually incorporated contestants from the show,” Tabitha explains. “It’s not just a performance … it’s a connection to the show.”

The finale will be “a good holiday treat,” according to Napoleon, “and a mixture of the kids on the show getting to interact with a pop sensation.”

The So You Think You Can Dance season finale airs Wednesday (8 p.m. EST) on FOX and will also feature performances by Adam Lambert, Mary J. Blige and Leona Lewis.

Shy and retiring Alicia Keys released her inner diva in London this week when a hotel suite she had been offered FOR FREE triggered an out-of-character hissy fit.

Alicia flew into town to promote her amazing new album The Element Of Freedom and was initially more than thrilled to be offered the grandest suite of all at the Jumeirah Carlton Tower Hotel in Knightsbridge.

But upon arrival on Monday morning Alicia was far from happy. Despite the suite being used to accommodate stars of the calibre of Michael Jackson and Madonna over the years, Alicia hated it.

In fact the star – who’s riding high in the charts with Jay-Z on their Empire State Of Mind track – turned on her heel and walked away from what would have been a three-day stay – worth an estimated £5,000 – at the plush London gaff.

My source reveals: “The hotel had been in discussion with Alicia’s team for a week, preparing her suite with her favourite flowers, scents and goodies. The hotel’s Rib Room entrance on Sloane Square had even been closed off at her bodyguard’s request for her arrival. But when they saw the Luxury Suite, Alicia and her people asked for something bigger.

“They were told there wasn’t anything bigger and that the Luxury Suite was the biggest and best in the hotel.

“Basically, Alicia took one look and said she ‘didn’t feel the vibe’. And when she does that, she’s not joking, so the whole entourage piled into her limo and left.”

physically stunning gods and goddesses of jersey shore talk about their looks



With their super-sized personalities, architecturally impressive hairstyles, and their tendency to speak of themselves in the third person, the eight cast members of MTV’s Jersey Shore are rapidly becoming America’s latest guilty pleasure. And for these self-described Guidos and Guidettes, looking good is a complete way of life.

“A guy from [the] Jersey Shore is a guy that is looking good, feeling confident, taking care of himself,” DJ Pauly D tells PEOPLE at the Spike TV’s Video Game Awards 2009, proudly pointing out that it takes him nearly a half an hour to sculpt his impenetrable hair. “It takes me twenty-five minutes to get it right. Greatness takes time, and this hair right here is greatness. I have it down to a tee, but this is a process right here.”

Israeli Police Officer Beaten, Seriously Injured By Settlers


Angry settlers beat and seriously injured a female Israeli police officer Tuesday, police said, as she tried to enforce a government ban on new housing construction in Jewish West Bank settlements.

It was the most serious clash between settlers and authorities since the building restrictions were imposed last month. Settlers have vowed to defy the orders and have confronted government inspectors, scuffling with them.

Tuesday's incident went beyond the usual pushing and shoving.

2nd-grader sent home for crucifix drawing
Dad says teacher became upset when boy drew himself on a cross

TAUNTON, Mass. - An 8-year-old boy was sent home from school and ordered to undergo a psychological evaluation after he was asked to make a Christmas drawing and came up with what appeared to be a stick figure of Jesus on a cross, the child's father said Tuesday.

Chester Johnson told WBZ-TV that his son made the drawing on Dec. 2 after his second-grade teacher asked children to sketch something that reminded them of the holiday.

Johnson said the teacher became upset when his son said he drew himself on the cross. Johnson, who is black, told WBZ he suspects racism is involved. He said he thinks the school overreacted and wants an apology.


Johnson told the Taunton Daily Gazette, which first reported the story on Tuesday, that his son gets specialized reading and speech instruction and has never been violent in school.

An educational consultant working with the Johnson family said the teacher was also alarmed when the boy drew Xs for Jesus' eyes.

A call to Johnson was not immediately returned.

OK, WTF. I really don't know what to make of this story. I think the teacher overreacted, but I'm not sure what exactly she was overreacting to: violence, Christianity, race, the fact that Christmas is about Jesus's birth not death (that's Easter, sweetie).... I dunno. Also, last paragraph: unrelated story is unrelated.

Thoughts?

Tara Reid dons bunny ears and very little else for the January/February double-issue of Playboy, on newsstands Friday, and the former "Scrubs" and 'American Pie' star explains one of the key reasons why she took it all off for the magazine…

"A part of the reason I did Playboy was because there's been so much controversy with my body," she tells ET. "I wanted to show everyone, 'Okay, look at it -- this is what it looks like. Leave me alone now.' And I'm really happy with it."

It was back in 2004 that Tara made headlines with a botched breast enhancement surgery infamously exposed for all to see on the red carpet for P. Diddy's birthday party.

"When I went down [Diddy's] carpet and the dress fell, I just had my first surgery so I didn't even feel it … It was a botched surgery so I really wouldn't want anyone to see that," she explains. "Then I got a better one and I got healed and I'm good now. But no one wants to say that I'm healed or good. They always want to show that bad picture from 10 years ago."

Tara reveals that she's made a few big mistakes in the public eye, but she's learned from her negative experiences.

"I probably should've been more private," she says. "I'm a very open person. That's just who I am. So maybe when people started asking questions about my personal life I shouldn't have given so much information. … I learned it could be hurtful when it shouldn't be. I let my heart close a little bit and heal, but I still have a heart and I still feel. It took a long time to get to a balance like that."

Another reason why Tara decided to pose for Playboy: "I'm in my thirties, I'm in a great relationship, I'm really happy and I'm at a good place in my life right now, and I think it shows."

In London to promote her new film, Nine, this week, the Australian refused to answer questions about the controversial religion during an interview with BBC political anchor Andrew Marr on Sunday.

Marr’s question on Scientology and Kidman’s biting reaction were cut from the TV version of The Andrew Marr Show, but appears in an extended interview on the program’s website.

“Scientology. It is, a lot of people would say, a bullying cult,” Marr asked.

Kidman replied: “I’m here to publicize Nine. If I was here to do an expose on myself then I’d be like, ‘Let’s go,’ but I have no interest in discussing any of that.”

Marr said: “You don’t want to talk about Scientology in any way at all?”

“Nope. I’ll talk about Nine,” Nicole answered.

SAN JUAN, Texas — A south Texas couple put an aborted 7-month-old fetus in a gift box under a Christmas tree after they were unable to flush the remains down a toilet, authorities alleged Monday.

Ruby Lee Medina, 31, and Javier Gonzalez, 37, of Mission, have been charged with abuse of a corpse and tampering with evidence. Bond was set Monday at $20,000 each.

A woman who answered the telephone at the San Juan city jail Monday night said she could not say whether Medina or Gonzalez had retained an attorney.

San Juan Police Chief Juan Gonzalez said police found the fetus inside the woman's trailer home Thursday after getting an anonymous tip.

Autopsy results are pending, but Gonzalez said police believe the woman used pills to induce an abortion Thursday, then called an ambulance after she began bleeding and told doctors she didn't know where the fetus was.

The police chief said the couple tried to flush the fetus down the toilet, but that didn't work.

"Apparently they cleaned up the fetus and they placed it inside a gift box under the Christmas tree," the police chief said.

On not being a target of the paparazzi anymore: “It’s a business. Once they stop making money off of you they stop coming around.”

On knowing she had talent, but not an extraordinary talent
: “It wasn’t like it was with Marc, who opened his mouth at age three and was blessed with a voice from God. That wasn’t me. I had to work at it, but I knew that once I had achieved it, people would respond to me in a certain way.”

On the pressure to look good in Hollywood: “Part of my business is being in shape and looking good. You can’t lie to yourself about it. But I’m not the monster I used to be in the exercise department.”

On trying to get hubby Marc Anthony to quit smoking: “Yeah, well you have to let a person do his thing.”

Rob and Emilie Photoshoot for Vogue?


We know where Robert Pattinson was today.


Across the street from our offices—at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art!


But he wasn't exactly checking out any exhibits…


Sources tell us that hottie R.Pattz and his stunning Remember Me costar Emilie de Ravin were there being photographed at the museum (aka LACMA) for Vogue magazine.


I'm told editors at the fashion bible are planning a multipage spread of the twosome for the mag's annual Power Issue that rolls off the presses just in time for Remember Me's March 12 release date.


"The theme is a date at LACMA," one source says.


Photographer Norman Jean Roy is said to have shot them in several spots throughout the museum, including interior and exterior setups. "It's kind of edgy in a Vogue way," the source says. "Emilie is wearing high fashion but it's like sort of tattered-looking. Rob is mainly in suits."


Pattinson arrived at about 9 a.m. before the museum opened.
But it's not like art lovers—or Twi-hards—were going to get a good look at him during the day anyway. Locations were blocked off with blue tarps and surrounded by security guards.

Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada

Heather Richard, 32, had suffered three miscarriages, and was told by the doctors that she couldn't have children.

So on Sunday, December 13th, the birth of a five pounds baby boy caught her by surprise, she was in pain and in the bathroom when; “It just fell out. I thought it was my intestines, so I’m freaking out,” adding that she thought she was going to die, “But then it’s a little boy.”

The baby was in the toilet but Heather was still in shock, and her teenage cousin who was there didn't know what to do. Fortunately, the two street crime unit officers who had just arrived on scene to arrest Richard for her alleged involvement in a pair of thief, came to their aid. Darrin Richard, 20, said a female officer, assisted by a male officer, pulled the boy out of the toilet, put him on the counter, cleaned off his face and began CPR.

In spite of a skull fracture (likely from when his head struck the toilet), the baby was in stable condition, and along with the mother (who was joined by her boyfriend at the hospital), would be released in a few days. Richard said the warrants had been taken care of, Police spokesman Const. Jason Michalyshen said that they were delaying her arrest in light of her having given birth, and that Richard was not considered a flight risk. The officer who had given CPR had also received a course of medications in case of bodily fluids contamination.

The family expressed gratitude to the police, the paramedics, and the hospital. Heather Richard said her baby would have died without the police officer's help; “Thank you, you saved my baby’s life."

Durbin: Medicare Buy-In Is Out, Progressives Won't Defect

Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) told reporters on Tuesday that he believes health care reform has the votes to pass the Senate before Christmas after Democrats removed a provision to expand Medicare coverage.

"It is my understanding that, at this point it is going to be changed and removed," Durbin said the proposal to allow people between 55 and 64 to buy Medicare. "I think we are very close. We are still working with a few senators who have not made a commitment and until those commitments and votes are made we are going to keep working... Ultimately, we will pass it before Christmas."

Miley Cyrus Bundles Up with Braison

Braison Cyrus pulls big sis Miley close to him to keep her warm as they walk through Heathrow Airport in London on Tuesday evening (December 15).

The 17-year-old starlet is heading to Dublin to rock out the O2 Arena next. Check out MileyCyrus.com to see if there are still tickets left!

Sarah Jessica Parker, who stars with Miley in the upcoming Sex and the City 2, recently revealed to MTV that she found Miley to be really tall. SJP shared, “I was astounded by her height - did you know that she’s tall? She’s like a Viking, I had no idea!”

Sarah continued Miley’s praise, saying, “I literally was not in the scene with her, I was in the scene, but we were not on-screen together, but she was lovely and on time and prompt and professional, very sweet. She’s a beautiful young lady and very self-possessed.”
