Hugh Hefner’s former girlfriend Kendra Wilkinson has never appeared to be ashamed of her unconventional past, but now, for the first time, the reality star will put it all in writing.

The former Playboy Bunny went on the “Today” show Tuesday to promote her new memoir, “Sliding into Home.” The book details Kendra’s life - from her past as a 13-year-old drug addict to her present as a wife and mother.

Kendra says there are parts of the memoir she has never discussed with the public – let alone her mother – saying she recently told her mom about her past as a stripper because she didn’t want her to find out from the book. FULL POST

First Wonder Woman got an edgy new makeover, and now Superman is singing show tunes. The Man of Steel has turned musical star thanks to a Dallas revival of the 1966 Broadway show “It’s a Bird… It’s a Plane… It’s Superman!”

The production is actually quite a serious spectacle, with an $800,000 budget, a cast of 24 – including Broadway heavyweight Matt Cavenaugh (West Side Story”) as Superman – and more than 100 costume changes, reports The New York Times.

“It’s a Bird…” follows young Kal-El’s journey from the planet Krypton to farm life in Smallville to big-city Metropolis, and explores the love triangle between Lois Lane, Clark Kent, and corrupt businessman Maxwell Menken. FULL POST

Last night's episode of "The Bachelorette" brought Ali and the five remaining guys to Lisbon, Portugal.  There would be four dates this week, with no roses on the line in any of them.

The first solo date went to Roberto, who's asked by Ali to be the "king of her castle".  Are they heading to Medieval Times for dinner and a tournament?

Nope.  Instead, the two start posing for wacky photos, with Ali trying to impersonate every Toyota commercial from 1984.  Ali and Roberto then dance in the street to music added in post-production.  Mick Jagger and David Bowie they're not. FULL POST

If you listen closely to the lyrics of Drake’s new single “Karaoke,” you’ll hear him reference a certain wedding planner.

“Isn’t it ironic that the girl I wanna marry is a wedding planner? It tells me my life’s too much and it moves to Atlanta.”

So who’s the lucky wedding planner? Jade Lee, the artist’s childhood friend from Toronto and - if the rest of his lyrics are any indication - his first love:

“I know they say the first love is the sweetest, but that first cut is the deepest,” he sings. FULL POST

The music industry might be embracing digital and online technology, but Prince is not convinced that it’s a good thing.

"The Internet's completely over,” Prince told British tabloid publication, The Mirror, in his first newspaper interview in 10 years. “I don't see why I should give my new music to iTunes or anyone else. They won't pay me an advance for it and then they get angry when they can't get it.”

Prince is currently set to release his latest album, “20Ten,” for free through various European print media, including the Daily Mirror and its Scottish affiliate, the Daily Record. Fans can snag their copy this Saturday via the different press outlets, but you they certainly won’t find any of the new material online. FULL POST

Joseph Gordon-Levitt has come a long way since his days as a child star on “3rd Rock From the Sun,” “10 Things I Hate About You” and “Angels in the Outfield.”

And the 29-year-old “500 Days of Summer” star isn’t done pushing the envelope. Gordon-Levitt will appear alongside Leonardo DiCaprio and Ellen Page in Christopher Nolan’s “Inception,” due out July 16.

“When you work on big movies, everybody gets jaded, myself included, and you have to remind yourself: If we were 10 years old, this would be pretty damn exciting. Joe never seems to forget that,” Nolan told Details. FULL POST

So apparently somebody at the British website TotalFilm tweeted yesterday that the date July 6, 2010, was the date input by Doc Brown in "Back to the Future" for heading into the future, making Tuesday "Future Day."

And then - to paraphrase Winston Churchill - the tweet worked its way around the Web before the truth could turn its flux capacitor on.

When the error was pointed out, TotalFilm apologized - sort of. Though admitting they got the date wrong, the website Photoshopped a screengrab ... which caused yet more problems when IT made its way around the Web.

Bristol Palin’s acting debut didn’t require much acting.

The 19-year-old mother played herself on last night’s episode of “Secret Life of the American Teenager.” Palin and the show’s main character, Amy, find themselves at a band camp for teen moms.

"I am a fan of the show," Palin told ET. "I think it is realistic to show the consequences of teen pregnancy and to show it not only affects Amy, but her friends and her family."

In her guest appearance, Palin tells Amy she’s the world’s greatest French horn player and then refers to herself as Yo-Yo Ma. (Watch the clip.)

What did you think of Palin’s big debut?
