The
drama between Lauren and Audrina over Justin Bobby continued last night on
The Hills. Even though Audrina finally came to the realization that the rumor about her best friend and boyfriend was just that, she was still pretty apprehensive about apologizing to Lauren. Admitting your wrongdoings can be a daunting task, but tell me, have you ever been afraid or nervous to apologize when you were in the wrong like Audrina was last night?

Last night's episode of
The Hills was one of the most dramatic yet. We saw
Lauren and Audrina's spat over Justin Bobby unfold before the show aired, but watching how it really went down made me realize just how ridiculous Audrina's accusations were. While I understand her reasons behind confronting both Justin and Lauren, their first denial should have been good enough for Audrina to simply drop the issue.

Yesterday the Internet was
abuzz with rumors about the
Food Network's new competitive eating show.
However, I spoke with a source at the network today, and she informed me that, contrary to gossip, the Food Network is not filming a competitive eating series. According to PR manager Lisa Krueger, the show is more like a culinary version of
The Amazing Race.

Although it would be nice to think that the
world of rumors and talking behind someone’s back is left in the halls of our high schools, I think we all know that’s just not the case. In fact, most workplaces are rife with gossip as are many circles of friends. That said, not all gossip is bad; some rumors are simply a matter of misinformation.

OK, I'm sure you've heard. John Edwards may or may not have a mistress and a love child. I've had my fingers crammed in my ears, doing the la-la-la-can't-hear-you song, all week.

I'm close with my team at work; we often meet for happy hours and even get together on the weekends. About a year ago we hired a new girl who became fast friends with the whole group, including me. But a few months ago something in her changed.

You and your new guy agreed that you would wait a while to have sex for the first time, but your relationship continues to get stronger and stronger. Just when you think you guys are finally getting to the exclusive couple level, he starts acting strange; it seems like he's slightly less affectionate towards you. You try not to worry about it, but when a friend approaches you about something they
heard through the grapevine, the pieces start to fall into place.

Hollywood is baby crazy and it leaves people wanting more. Before expectant moms are ready to announce their pregnancies, rumors fly about suspicious wardrobes and potential baby bumps.
Avril Lavigne and hubby Deryck Whibley were recently spotted at Kitson Kids buying up a load of tot goodies.

It has been rumored for years now that Tom Cruise was shopping for a wife, so to speak, before he nabbed Katie, and
according to Andrew Morton, the author of Tom's unauthorized biography, Jennifer Garner was one of his top choices. Of course this can't make Katie feel very good, but the concept is pretty wild if you think about it. Even though we all must decide who to marry, it's easier for someone as famous as Tom Cruise to have his pick of the litter.
