Rosie Enters New Feud, This Time with Bill O'Reilly



Rosie O’Donnell has found herself in an all-new war, this time with Bill O’Reilly.

“The View’s” loudest voice got the FOX News fireball fired up Thursday night over her comments about the president, September 11th and Iran.

“You want to know why we got into Iran? For the money,” Rosie insisted.

On her website, O’Donnell accused the British of getting their own sailors kidnapped to instigate war. She also blogged, “We will be in Iran before summer as planned.”


How Jenny McCarthy Lost 60 Pounds



She's been a playboy playmate, a sitcom TV star, and she’s dating one of Hollywood’s hottest stars, Jim Carrey. But now Jenny McCarthy has a new title: America’s New Diet Queen.

“Extra” hit the field with Jenny in New York, where she shared her story of ballooning up to 211 pounds and revealed that she lost 60 pounds with Weight Watchers.

“After I delivered my baby, I was very heavy,” she said. “I did six months in the program, and I got to my goal weight.”

Jenny is marking her successful fight with fat by becoming the face for Weight Watchers Online for Men, and she’s taking baseball great Ron Darling up to bat, coaching the all-star pitcher on what the diet can do for him.


Britney Spears, Kevin Federline Divorce Settlement Final



Britney and Kevin have officially reached an agreement in their highly publicized split.

“Extra” got the first shots of Brit out at a club just after a heated 5-hour negotiation with lawyers.

K-Fed will get $1 million in the divorce settlement, which is not bad for two years of marriage. Brit’s iron-clad pre-nup prevented him from getting more.

Today, Federline’s attorney told “Extra,” “At one point Kevin went down for a smoke, and Britney followed him outside. They had a 15-minute conversation.”

Britney and Kevin agreed to share custody of their two young sons, 50-50.

TomKat Targeted by Alleged Star Stalker


A woman outside Tom and Katie’s Beverly Hills mansion was taken into police custody Thursday.

“Extra” has uncovered that this is not Tom and Katie’s first brush with this woman. In August 2005, Cruise got a restraining order against her.
