Jennifer Lopez and Britney Spears may be seeing red over some comments by Pink, reports MSNBC.com. The outspoken rocker was asked by Advocate magazine for her thoughts on the controversy surrounding gay marriage. "If you wanna marry Joe Millionaire, go ahead. If you're a celebrity and you wanna marry your high school sweetheart for 55 hours, go right ahead. If you're J.Lo and you wanna marry 18 people, for six days each, hey! Go right on ahead! "But if you happen to be reasonably minded and have fallen in love and wanna marry your soul mate and make a life...

<p>Now for the good news: Monday's second-season debut of Fox's "Joe Millionaire" came in fifth in its time period - trailing even the WB's "Seventh Heaven."</p> <p>This is the meanest of "reality" shows, about a poor guy who's presented to a gang of gold-diggers as a multimillionaire looking for a wife. Since Fox thought it would be hard to find American women who didn't already know the lie, the network found 14 oblivious European gold-diggers.</p>

“Joe Millionaire” star Evan Marriott continues to talk trash about his TV-arranged romance. Marriott has been doing the talk-show circuit in Canada, where, according to one source, he suggested that the show’s producers urged him to pick “winner” Zora. “He said he wasn’t really attracted to any of the contestants,” according to the source. “He was hot for one of the production people. But the producers wanted Zora.” And in an interview, the former construction worker had some not entirely kind words for the woman he “chose.” “After the show, we spent two days together,” Marriott told Canada’s National Post....

Now, comes a new one. Technically, it does follow the themes of some other “reality” shows, but for all intents and purposes, it is original in most every way. It is being presented by the Bravo Network, which is owned by the NBC Television Network which in turn is owned by General Electric whose slogan, "We bring good things to life," was dropped by the company at the beginning of this year. Now, we know why. The new show will be entitled, “Boy Meets Boy.” While it is pretty much what it says it is, it also has a twist...

The first time Playboy magazine came calling, Sarah Kozer from "Joe Millionaire" said no. The second time, she said no again. But the third time — after receiving unanimous approval from her family and friends — she changed her mind. Now, the reality show runner-up is on the cover of the magazine's June issue. Kozer said she only agreed to pose for Playboy if the photos entailed no full-frontal nudity. "I was a women's studies major," she said Monday night at a party celebrating her appearance. This isn't the first time the 29-year-old has modeled; as the Fox romance series...

Don't blink. Fox is trying to pull a fast one on you. Or at least on 20 gullible suckers who might not have seen Joe Millionaire the first time around. Yes, the same people who claimed the faux Joe series was "a one-time-only thing" have a sequel in the works. You can hardly blame the network for trying to capitalize on Joe 's success after the series helped the net win the sweeps champ title among coveted 18-49 year-olds this month and came in third in overall viewers with 12.1 million behind CBS (13.8 million) and NBC (12.5 million). After...

So what happened? Any stunning secrets? Dissappointing, shocking, or good? Yeah, yeah, yeah, its stupid and meaningless, TV will destroy the Roman Empire, etc., save us the speeches. Yes TV has never been the same since Greg Kinnear left Talk Soup(though I thought Monkey Boy had his moments). I just wanna know what happened.

Maybe 'Joe Millioniare' Evan Mariott's fake fortune isn't the only thing about the show that is fake.Skeptics are increasingly wondering whether the entire show is a fraud.Several of the gold digging bachelorettes have been revealed to be actresses or models, points out one writer.And one Web site pointedly asks, 'So how much of this reality show is real and how much is purely scripted.'

I said I would never watch the show, but I got hooked. I thought Zora was a great choice. It was also funny on one of his "dates" where he was distracted by a construction site (his real job). However, I wonder what Zora will do when she finds out Joe is a pauper. Old Joe Millionaire - what a guy.

This week on "Joe Millionaire," EVAN MARRIOTT picked grapes and shoveled horse manure with his plucky dates -- who must certainly be getting wise to the fact by now that the lovable lummox isn't really the tycoon he claims to be. But does FOX's hunky construction worker have something else to hide? Rumors have been circulating on the Internet and in the tabloids concerning Evan's sexual preference. Tonight, ET's MARY HART asks Evan the tough questions on our set, starting with, "Are you gay?" And he sets the record straight! "No," he says matter-of-factly. "I was really in love with...

Before Fox Television turned him into "Joe Millionaire," the eligible bachelor supposedly worth $50 million, Evan Marriott earned spare change modeling skimpy briefs for a California firm specializing in revealing swimwear, thongs, and leatherette underwear. Marriott, whom Fox describes as a $19,000-a-year construction worker, posed in November 2001 for California Muscle, a Los Angeles-based firm that sells its racy garments via a bi-annual catalog and web site. Marriott, as shown below, was snapped wearing a $26 Posing Suit. He can also be seen in a very snug $36 Arabian Boxer that leaves little to the imagination (the young and impressionable...
