Episode 5: The Brad Is In the Details
Details magazine, that is! Last night's episode of It's a Brad, Brad World centered on a whirlwind trip to New York to style that Pop of Color shoot for Details. Despite lots of dramatic music, shots of less than satisfied magazine staffers, a very nervous Brad, plus a very uncooperative red coat—the shoot was a success; and the door at Details is always open.
In other news: Brad pulled dresses for Shay Mitchell (who is someone who is supposed to be famous for something); Team Brad began settling into the posh new office; Gary and Brad began planning their anniversary party; and Brad's dad canceled a visit to Los Angeles before getting injured in some sort of tree accident (it's Canada).
Oh, and the couple hosted a small dinner party—except they didn't buy the groceries or cook. Highlight: A shot of someone else making a marinara in their Hollywood Hills kitchen over a gigantic Miu Miu shopping bag and shoe box on the kitchen counter near the stove.
Another highlight and Cute Look Alert: Brad layering a jean jacket under a varsity jacket.

Kristen Bell Has an Emotional Meltdown...Over a Sloth?!
E! News has the scoop:
"We may not understand her ways, but we can't help but love her.
Kristen Bell appeared on Ellen today and revealed a side of her we had yet to see. And although it was intense and very emotional, it was also extremely adorable and hilarious.
"Tomorrow at 4pm you can see the sensitive madness that is the inside of my brain," she had tweeted yesterday.
READ: Ellen DeGeneres Tells The Bachelor Ben Flajnik: Courtney "Was Playing You"
Yeah, you could call it madness.
Bell told Ellen DeGeneres a story of how fiancé Dax Shepard surprised her with a sloth encounter for her 31st birthday over the summer. It might not sound like the perfect gift to you, but to Kristen, it was a dream come true.
"I had no context for knowing what it was. But I grab the dogs, walk into the back room of the house and I immediately was overcome and thought, 'There's a sloth near. There's a sloth here, it's close, it's gonna happen.' And I didn't know how to process that, because my entire life, had been waiting for this moment, where I would get to interact—I'm serious—with a sloth."
And then we got a peek at her home video, where Bell was laying down covering her eyes and weeping while having a panic attack over what her soon-to-be hubby got for her, which made us wish we could just go through the TV screen and give her a big bear sloth hug (while giggling).
"you guys are so sweet. it was scary 2 show an ugly cry video but i am so glad if u got a laugh from watching- thats what i was hoping!!! xo," she tweeted.
Take a look!" -E! News

15 Ways Exercise Boosts Mental Health: Easing Depression, Revving Up Sex Drive, Calming Anxiety and More
ivillage Talks About Health:
Get an Rx for Exercise
Next time you’re
feeling blue or stressed or compelled to eat, lace up some walking shoes
and head to the gym, the trail or the weight room. It may beat sitting
on a therapist’s couch, and you get a physical workout, to boot. “People
need to become more aware of the benefits of exercise for mental health
in both the short term and the long run,” says Ana M. Abrantes, Ph.D.,
assistant professor (research) at the Alpert Medical School of Brown
University in Providence, R.I. “Being physically active isn’t only
important for physical health or weight loss.” Here are 15 ways exercise
can alleviate mental health problems.

CelebVillage: Katherine Heigl: "My Struggle to Make Sure My Daughter Knows Her Worth"
I’m not much of a reality TV watcher. I tend to stick mostly to the comedies and dramas that I love, but I recently happened to catch an episode of Dance Moms and watched with open-mouthed amazement as girls as young as seven were encouraged to dress provocatively and shimmy around a stage doing a dance performance that could just as easily been a burlesque routine. I kept thinking all these girls were missing is a pole! I was also horrified by the way their instructor spoke to them when she felt they weren’t up to snuff. It was demeaning, belittling, and downright unkind.
My daughter was in the room at the time as was my mother and I kept looking over at my perfect, innocent and beautiful child wondering how can I protect her from what the world is becoming. My mother was outraged and -- never one to hold back an opinion -- vented that it was not even remotely necessary to speak to a child the way the dance instructor was, that no one during the course of my performing and early years as a child model and actor had ever talked to me like that. She insisted that the tough-love attitude was totally misguided and not what makes anyone succeed -- and certainly not a child. She reminded me that I was loved, encouraged, and held through the journey of my career and was never demeaned, berated, or told I was not doing my best and look how well that has worked for me.

Katherine Heigl Slams Dance Moms, Calls It "Demeaning" and "Belittling"
It's safe to say that Katherine Heigl is not a huge fan of the show after slamming it on her iVillage blog for sending inappropriate messages to young girls.
"I watched with open-mouthed amazement as girls as young as seven
were encouraged to dress provocatively and shimmy around a stage doing a
dance performance that could just as easily been a burlesque routine,"
she wrote.
"I kept thinking all these girls were missing is a pole! I was also horrified by the way their instructor spoke to them when she felt they weren't up to snuff," Heigl writes. "It was demeaning, belittling, and downright unkind."
And then it came to the topic of how Abby addresses the little girls.
"There is no reason to break anyone down in order to prepare them for inevitable disappointment or unkindness," she says. "There is no reason to diminish anyone's self-esteem in order to get them to try harder next time. Especially not a child's."
Although Heigl doesn't agree with the young girls parading their bodies on stage, she explains it's not their fault and they possess great talent.
"The young girls on Dance Moms are wonderfully talented, spirited ladies who should be encouraged to perform since they seem to truly have a knack for it...I just wish they were being inspired, instructed and supported for their gifts as I was when I found my creative path."

Snooki and JWoww's Jersey Shore Spinoff Stalled? Hoboken Mayor Fights to Prevent Production
Looks like the party's not here (if here is Hoboken, New Jersey).
Back in April, we heard news that MTV greenlighted a spinoff show for Jersey Shore's Snooki and JWoww (along with a separate show for Pauly D), but now it seems there might be a roadblock to seeing it happen.
Mayor Dawn Zimmer is not a fan of the idea and has denied the show's production company a permit to shoot there.

According to the letter sent to MTV and obtained by E! News, Mayor Zimmer says, "After careful deliberation, the members of the film commission, including representatives from Health and Human Services, Environmental Services, and the Administration, with input from our public safety officials, have determined that in the interest of public safety and quality of life, the permit application for 495 Productions/MTV's production of the Jersey Shore spin-off has been denied.
"We were extremely surprised to learn during our meeting with you that you filmed in public areas without a required permit in one location," the letter continues.

Rooney Mara, Jessica Chastain and Jennifer Lawrence Star in Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue!
"Holy Hollywood!
Some of the most beautiful (and badass) gals in the biz—like Oscar nominee Rooney Mara and Hunger Games gal Jennifer Lawrence—are all featured on the cover of Vanity Fair's February issue, and we love the glam, old-school Hollywood look!

Elizabeth Olsen, Adepero Oduye, Shailene Woodley, Paula Patton, Felicity Jones, Lily Collins and Brit Marling all top off the list of 11 lucky ladies recognized as today's top talent.

Pity the Fool: Survivor Sues Newt Gingrich for Co-Opting "Eye of the Tiger"
E! News Talks Politics
MGM; ABC/ DONNA SVENNEVIK
MGM; ABC/ DONNA SVENNEVIK
The Republican presidential contender is on the receiving end of a lawsuit filed by '80s rock band Survivor, which is seeking to stop him from using their 1982 hit, "Eye of the Tiger," from the Rocky III soundtrack to pump up the crowds at his campaign rallies.
Talk about a body blow...
Per the complaint filed in federal court in Chicago, Rude Music Inc.—a company owned by Frank Sullivan, one of the members of Survivor—accused Gingrich of deploying the rock ditty without the group's permission as entrance music at various political arenas.
Of course, moviegoers better know "Eye of the Tiger" as the Grammy-winning tune accompanying Rocky's climb back to the heavyweight championship after getting knocked out by Mr. T's Clubber Lang in the third installment of the series.
But according to court docs, Newt first began playing "Eye" in violation of the copyright when he spoke at the 2009 Conservative Political Action Conference and in subsequent appearances there. He also used it in 2010 at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference as well as the theme for his candidacy during the past year.
"As his campaign for the Republican presidential nomination has ramped up, Mr. Gingrich and Newt 2012, Inc. have caused a recording of 'Eye of the Tiger' to be publicly performed at numerous campaign appearances by Mr. Gingrich," states the complaint.
MORE: Another Rocky Song Choice for John McCain
Sullivan wants a court order barring further use of "Eye of the Tiger" by Gingrich and seeks unspecified damages.
Rude Music's attorney, Annette McGarry, tells E! News that Survivor will not comment on the suit but did note, "this isn't about politics, this is about copyright law."
A spokesperson for the Republican hopeful's campaign could not be reached for comment.
Newt's not the first politician facing legal action from Survivor over unauthorized use of their anthem. The rockers previously went after former Republican presidential nominee John McCain for doing the same thing.

And they're not the only ones.
A few years ago, David Byrne sued former Florida governor Charlie Crist for using the Talking Heads classic "Road to Nowhere." Heart sent a cease-and-desist to Sarah Palin for using their 1977 gem "Barracuda." And both Katrina and the Waves and Tom Petty sent similar notices to Michelle Bachmann for using their respective songs.

Kmart's #FashionWeekProblems Concierge Service will be Returning this Season with T-Shirts Designed by Sophomore's Chrissie Miller
As they've done the past two seasons, Kmart will be bringing its Concierge service back to the poor, tired souls of New York Fashion Week this February. The service aims to come to the rescue of Fashion Week victims tweeting with the hashtag #FashionWeekProblems. Chapped lips, dehydration, stiletto heels broken while practicing your best street style pose—these problems arise during fashion week, and @kmartfashion will be on hand to fix them for you.
Well, not you, actually: only a group of "select influencers"
will be conceirged by Kmart. But if you happen to be in this elite
group, and you need a bottle of water of a button sewn on, and you tweet
with the aforementioned hashtag, a Kmart representative wearing this Chrissie Miller-designed T-shirt will appear and help you out.
The SOPHOMORE designer says of the collaboration, “I love the idea of the Kmart Concierge helping bloggers, influencers and the behind-the-scenes heroes of Fashion Week. It’s such a unique way of giving back.”
Though the T-shirt isn't available for purchase, it will be offered as a gift with purchase (while supplies last) at SOPHOMORE’s 143 Ludlow Street store.

Dance Moms! Tuesdays at 9pm/8c
"Dance Moms" Episode 4
Date:
Jan 31, 2012 9:00 PMEpisode Synopsis: Abby choreographs a bully-theme dance number that upsets Holly.
If you missed last weeks episode episode 3 (Brooke's Turning Point)
Original air date: 1/24/12. Brooke tries out for
cheerleading leaving Abby and the dancers in the lurch the day before a
big competition. Check out "Dance Moms" photos and extras!
Ever since it wrapped its hit first season shrouded in sequins,
costumes and fiery catfights, die-hard fans have been clamoring for more
of Lifetime’s fast-rising docu-series "Dance Moms." Last summer’s most
talked about show, featuring infamous dance instructor Abby Lee Miller,
her world-class students and their mothers, "Dance Moms" will take its
long-awaited leap back into the world of competitive dance – this season
alongside several new faces.
Once again set in Pittsburgh’s renowned Abby Lee Dance Company, owned and operated by the notoriously demanding and passionate Miller, "Dance Moms" f
ollows children’s early steps on the road to stardom and their
doting mothers who are there for every rehearsal, performance and
bow...all under Miller’s discerning eyes. Presenting a powerful cast of
characters that has inspired water-cooler talk across the country, the
show immerses itself in the highs and lows surrounding dance competition
season, delivering a captivating and dramatic look at the cast’s
intense pursuit of National Dance titles.
Centered on the devoted Miller, who runs her school with an iron tap
shoe as she instructs her young, talented students while also dealing
with impassioned mothers who go to great lengths to help their
children’s dreams come true, "Dance Moms" will continue to pose the
tough questions many people have been asking since the show’s launch
about what really goes on behind-the-scenes in the fast-growing and
controversial sport of competitive dance.
"Dance Moms" uniquely captures the outrageous and dynamic interplay among teacher, student and parent as Miller commits herself to bring out the best in her students – and their mothers – willing to dedicate themselves to be part of one of the best dance teams in the nation. Constantly on edge from Miller’s strict discipline and at times harsh "my way or the highway" style of teaching, her students and their mothers are pushed to the limit emotionally, physically, socially and, in some cases, financially as they tirelessly rehearse every day and travel for weekly dance competitions throughout the U.S. Some students and mothers buy into Miller’s methods, while others crack under the pressure as they all battle each other for her attention.

Rachel Roy Follows in Mentor Manolo Blahnik's Footsteps, Introduces Shoe Line
Image via WWD
When your mentor is Manolo Blahnik, you're probably going to have to get into the shoe game at some point. Rachel Roy
is introducing her first line of collection footwear, and the designer
tells WWD that she was inspired by her former mentor. Like Blahnik,
Roy's shoe collection mixes materials and textures—wool, suede,
snakeskin—and incorporates bright colors with bold prints like animal,
polka dots, gingham, etc. But in terms of pricing, Roy's shoes will be
blessedly more affordable, falling more mid-range than high end: Flats
will retail for between $195 and $250 and pumps will range from $225 to
$325, while booties will cost between $325 and $425 and boots will sell
for $450 to $600. The collection will hit stores in August.· Rachel Roy Debuts First Footwear Line [WWD]

More X Factor Drama: Nicole Scherzinger Also Not Coming Back!
E! News fills us in:
Steve Jones isn't the only one not returning for the second season of X Factor.
I can exclusively reveal that Nicole Scherzinger has also decided not to come back.
READ: Chris Brown Performing at the Grammys?
"She wants to focus on her music career," a source said. "She's spoken to Simon [Cowell] and he's given her his blessing."
Scherzinger is currently rehearsing for her upcoming European tour that kicks off next month.
"X Factor took a lot more of her time than she ever expected," the source said. "She didn't have any time really to work on her music. She was doing X Factor six days a week."
Scherzinger's rep did not immediately comment.
Scherzinger told me in early December that judging was never easy for her. "It breaks my heart and that's why I'm crying, too," she said about watching fan favorite Drew Ryniewicz get cut. "I'm not a judge first—I'm an artist first. I've been there. I know what it's like."
Jones announced earlier today on Twitter that he would be leaving the show.
"I won't be hosting next seasons X Factor which is a shame but I can't complain as I've had a great time," Jones writes. "Good luck to everyone on the show."
His manager John Ferriter later told E! News that the parting is "totally amicable."

STFU: There's Going to be a Shirley MacLaine-Maggie Smith Showdown on Downton

In the mother of all mother-in-law battles, Carnival Films has announced that Shirley MacLaine is joining the cast of Downton Abbey for the show's upcoming third season. According to the Hollywood Reporter,
she will be playing Martha Levinson, the American mother of Lady
Grantham (played by American actress Elizabeth McGovern), and will join
the cast for shooting the new season next month. Though the third installment of the wildly popular period drama will air in the UK in September, the US will likely have to wait until January 2013 to view the inevitable war of one-liners coming our way. The only silver lining there is that we might be able to escape a "Shit Martha Levinson Says" redux.
