Former Seinfeld star and KFC-spokesperson Jason Alexander is next in line to try Jenny Craig in exchange for a paycheck. The overweight sitcom star doesn’t seem remotely bothered by the fact that he’s following in the steps of Valerie Bertinelli and Kirstie Alley. In fact, he seems to think that this is the best possible plan for him. “It’s like someone’s clubbing me over the head it’s so obvious I should be doing this. It was a deadly combination of I’m fat and they work.” Jason hopes to lose between 30-40 pounds while on the plan, saying “Over the course of the nine years of Seinfeld, I can actually see my hairline go away and my waistline increase. One of them I can do nothing about; the other I can.”

I happen to think that a male spokesperson for Jenny Craig could be a huge deal for the weight-loss company. Not only will it definitely bring in a different crowd, but it will possibly change the way we view their brand. Jenny Craig has always seemed like your mom’s weight-loss plan, even more so than Weight Watchers. In fact, I’ve seen Weight Watchers take over as the preferred diet of many of my friends, male and female, over the past couple of years because portion control undeniably works. Could the company’s choice to use a well-known male actor make them relevant again?

Well, I called it. I have been saying that I was going to be writing an engagement announcement for these two before Valentine’s Day and looks like they were willing to deliver.

Russell Brand confirmed his engagement to Katy Perry yesterday to Britain’s Sun by texting them “It’s true. Much love.” Us Weekly followed up with Russell’s rep and they confirmed it as well. Russell asked Katy to marry him while the two were on a romantic getaway in India. From Us Weekly:

An insider tells Us that Brand popped the question with a ring, and Perry happily accepted.

The exotic trip, a Perry insider tells Us, “was his Christmas gift. She told him how much she loved Indian culture while they were eating curry in England, so he surprised her.”

Well, Khloe and Lamar at least made it a couple months, so I give these two at least twice that with maybe even a baby or two before they finally can’t stand each other anymore.

Ed: This is a part of our on-going recaps of the greatest show on television, Bad Girls Club. Saranden and Sierra are back again to fill you in on this week’s episode. You can catch them (and the cast members’ blogs) at the Bad Girls Club homepage.

The previous divides in the house have gotten more severe this week on Oxygen’s The Bad Girls Club.  To recap, “The Extras” consist of Amber, Kate, and Annie while “The Leads” are Flo, Natalie, and Kendra.  Well, at least everyone thinks Kendra is on one of the teams but I think she is just sick of the fighting.  I think Kendra is just trying to keep it real without getting too involved in any dispute and trying not to piss anyone off.  Hey, I’d be scared of Natalie if I lived in that house, too.  Still, if these are the two groups I want to be an Extra.  Does anyone else miss Portia? :(

Is anyone else sick of the conversations between Natalie and her “boyfriend?”  She always seems to be talking AT him not to or with him and I’m never really sure why she’s upset.  Actually, I’m pretty sure she’s not upset.  She’s so fake that I’m pretty sure her crying fits are also fake and just to get attention. I’m just sick of Natalie all together.  If she and her boyfriend end up breaking up and she gets her own dating show I will just die.  I would watch it every week, but I will hate myself a little (READ: A LOT) for it.

More importantly, WHY DOES NATALIE KEEP BRINGING THESE D LIST CELEBRITIES INTO THE HOUSE THEN ACT LIKE SHE’S HOT SHIT?  Does anyone know who Marcus Paulk or Gabe Pruitt are?  No.  Because Marcus hasn’t done anything worth mentioning since Moesha in THE MID-NINETIES and Mr. Pruitt isn’t actually playing basketball this year!  He did, however, get a DUI last year!  Go Team!

Since Portia had to leave the house last week for beating Natalie’s ass (god bless her!) a new girl was introduced to the house: Lexie.  WATCH OUT, KATE!  SHE’S BLOND!  One of the first sentences out of her mouth is “Girls just don’t like me!”   I can’t tell yet if she’s real or fake, good or bad, but I can guarantee we are going to get a wild time out of this girl!  OMG I REALLY HOPE SHE AND FLO HOOK UP! Considering Lexie got naked and went in the pool on her first night in the house I think all signs point to yes for a drunken lesbian hook-up.  Even though Flo has been a total bitch the past few episodes, she is still being real and I still have a girl crush on her ;)

Later the girls compete in the Screaming O contest at an adult toy convention and Natalie and Lexie win for best orgasm sounds!  Even though the orgasm sounds were faked, it comes from years and years of real experience!  I can’t even imagine the amount of orgasms those girls have faked over the years. Annie did a cute little cheer while all the other girls slutted it up.  Thanks, Annie, for being real for another episode :)

The sneak peaks for next week suggest some more cat fights and I can’t wait! The Bad Girls Club airs every Tuesday night at 10/9 central on Oxygen. 

“My job is to be a role model, and that’s what I want to do, but my job isn’t to be a parent. My job isn’t to tell your kids how to act or how not to act, because I’m still figuring that out for myself. So to take that away from me is a bit selfish. Your kids are going to make mistakes whether I do or not. That’s just life.”

- Miley Cyrus, worker of the pole, in this month’s Harper’s Bazaar.

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz decided to throw the photogs in New York for a loop when they stepped out wearing these masks yesterday in NYC. The two went for a walk around their ‘hood in matching all black outfits and stopped in to an antique store and a costume store, where they picked up their new face gear. What do you think about the two of them as a couple? Part of me thinks they could make it work forever because they seem so similar, but another part of me is convinced that once they outgrow their childlike attitudes, they will outgrow each other.

Eli Roth was just trying to be a rich handsome guy in a kayak off the coast of Careyes in Mexico last week when a sea urchin rolled up on his ass and stung him nearly to death. The star took to his Twitter yesterday and completely broke the 140-character limit by telling his story over about 20 Tweets.

Apparently Eli was in an urchin infested part of the ocean but keeping clear of them by climbing over rocks until he was engulfed by a wave and accidentally found his footing on top of the urchin. When he screamed for help, a doctor came to his aid, but no pain medication was available, so Eli was awake while over 200 pins were being removed from his feet and palms. Perhaps the best part of this horrible story is that while the doctor was working away on removing the pins, a man came up to Eli and asked if he would meet his son. Despite the fact that he’d just had a near death experience, Eli obliged and entertained the man’s drunk 20-year old kid. Ugh.

A couple things to say about this: 1) Celebrities should really only Twitter this much if they have an amazing story like this one to tell or they are Courtney Love. 2) If you see a celebrity washed up on the beach with over 200 pins sticking out of their hands and feet, maybe wait until they are removed to ask for an autograph, huh?
