Emeril is popping back up on the deliciousness spotlight. In ten new books, in fact, through a deal with Martha Stewart Omnimedia Inc. - which owns the rights to the Emeril Lagasse book franchise - and publisher HarperCollins.

The kitchen cheerleader is set to release the first book, an edition on indoor and outdoor grilling, in May 2009, and though he's produced twelve books prior with HarperCollins, this will be Emeril's first in four years.

Robert De Niro was set to star alongside Mel Gibson in the new flick Edge of Darkness. He was cast to play an operative sent to clean up some evidence pertaining to the murder of a young woman. As for Gibson, he's playing the victim's father and is also a homicide detective.

However, things change quickly in Hollywood and De Niro has dropped out!

De Niro actually arrived on set this week and apparently couldn't even last seven days. A spokesman for De Niro simply said, "Sometimes things don't work out; it's called creative differences."

While Scrubs has been surrounded by a lot of sad news about the stars departing from the television series despite its endurance to air another season, fans are still hopeful that the show will come back even stronger with season 8 moving to ABC. This spawns from creator Bill Lawrence's statement that he definitely wants the show to go on forever, or at least until its ninth season.

However, fans are pondering how he would pull this off with stars Zack Braff and Judy Reyes announcing their departure from the show.

In a move that a critic warned would "spark late-night chaos," NBC announced that Jay Leno would leave his spot on The Tonight Show on May 29, 2009. On June 1, The Late Show host Conan O'Brien would take over his spot.

Jimmy Fallon is not worried. The Saturday Night Live alum will take the spot to be vacated by O'Brien next year. At the same time, Saturday Night Live long-time producer Michael Shoemaker will reportedly oversee production on the upcoming Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, after being with Saturday Night Live for 20 years.

Keith Urban loves being a father and has absolutely no problem playing mom and dad to two month old Sunday Rose while her mommy Nicole Kidman is busy filming the movie Australia. He says that he is proud to be a full time Mr Mom during the day and that he loves taking care of the new baby.

Danielle Fishel (a.k.a. Topanga from Boy Meets World) went before a judge and bawled her eyes out for missing a court date in her DUI case. Apparently her calculated legal strategy worked and her probation was reinstated.

And I desperately wanted to be her when I was growing up. Bah humbug!

And the baby name we have all been waiting for...

Nahla Ariela Aubry is the name of Halle Berry's new baby girl. Short words but still a mouthful. Still I shout a great big cheers to the new parents!

Connecting the music with the entertainment news...

After giving away their album to people by allowing fans to determine how much they were willing to spend on the album, and then encouraging people to buy it for free, Radiohead has another crazy plan to drum free publicity for their music. The band is holding a contest to find an animator to create a video for the band. Jinkies man, I actually think this one sounds really great. It will work out for both the band and the animators.

Dame Maggie Smith, Professor McGongall in the Harry Potter films, is fighting a battle with breast cancer. Dame Maggie, 73, insisted on completing her sixth appearance as Harry Potter schoolmistress Minerva McGonagall in Harry Potter And The Half-Blood Prince while having radiation therapy. Good for her for being so strong and I will add her name to my prayers tonight.

And last but not least, Sex in the City star Kristin Davis is fighting a rumor about a possible sex tape existing of her and an ex. I don't think it is her, I'm not posting videos. If you want trash then spend time on Perez Hilton's site, not mine.

Rachel Bilson is designing her own lines of jeans for DKNY. Good grief. I love her, you know I'm going to have to buy them now!

And when in the world is Halle Berry going to have that baby. Well. Now. Word on the street is Halle Berry delivered a baby girl this morning, 7 lbs. and 4 oz. It is about time, she seemed to be pregnant forever! I know she is diabetic, or maybe it was just gestational diabetes which I am sure didn't help the weight gain. I hope all went well for her and baby berry. Although the name is still unknown, the baby girl will take Halle's dad's last name with is Aubry.

The only thing recent and green I could find for entertainment purposes was a picture of Cindy Crawford and her little boy Presley. How can she look so posh wearing something so normal. Note her flip flops and his sneakers which appear to have lifts. Hehe. He seems to be going through a punkish stage, but he is still adorable.

What is up with celebrity women and perfume? I don't understand why every actress under the moon feels the need to have their own fragrance line. Anyway, Halle Berry can now be added to the growing list.

"This fall, the actress will launch a new fragrance line in collaboration with Coty, who have already brought you celebrity scents by Jennifer Lopez, Posh and Becks, Sarah Jessica Parker, Gwen Stefani, Celine Dion"....you get the picture.

From what I can tell there hasn't been a description of the scent yet, anyone know?

Ashlee Simpson wanted to let everyone know she is not pregnant nor is she engaged. The ring on her finger is strictly a "promise ring" from Pete Wentz. Simpson says it just means he hasn't asked her Dad yet. Hmm. In case you were wondering, her hair is red right now. I think I liked it better a little bit darker personally.

And this guy is not a celebrity, but he is definitely insane. "A Toronto man nicknamed Pauly Unstoppable has been the first person to receive an experimental "eyeball tattoo". Basically a tattoo artist injected blue ink into Pauly's eye until it was completely blue -- some 40+ injections!" What an idiot.

And I can't decide how I feel about this movie, it might just be too stupid, what do you think?
