Tyra Banks: Engaged to John Utendahl?

Tyra Banks' longtime boyfriend, businessman John Utendahl, reportedly exists, and reportedly is very rich. Neither of which are all that shocking, really.

But when they went out to lunch on Saturday at the Little Next Door in Los Angeles, Banks was supposedly seen sporting a rock on her left ring finger!

Of course, Britney Spears wears engagement rings for fun without actually being engaged to Jason Trawick, so there's no telling what celebrities will do.

Still, is Tyra Banks engaged to John Utendahl? We can only hope for the future Gossip Girl guest star's sake that he's nicer to her than Brady Green.



This is Tyra Banks' boyfriend, John Utendahl. Tyra Banks is kind of annoying, so we have no idea how he does such a good job tolerating her on a regular basis.

Jenna Bush Joins the Today Show

NBC's Today show has hired Jenna Bush Hager as a new correspondent.


The 27-year-old teacher and daughter of George W. Bush will contribute once a month with stories on issues like education to TV top-rated morning news show.

Jenna Bush said she has always wanted to be a teacher and a writer, and has already authored two books. But she was intrigued by the idea of getting into TV.

"It wasn't something I'd always dreamed to do," she said. "But one of the most important things in life is to be open-minded and to be open-minded for change."

Jenna will essentially work two part-time jobs as a correspondent for Today and in her school, where she will be a reading coordinator this year. 

She was on the morning news program two years ago to promote her book about an HIV-infected single mother, Ana's Story: A Journey of Hope, and it went so well that Hager's short interview was stretched to nearly a half hour.

She and her mother, Laura Bush, also co-hosted an hour of Today about the time their picture book came out. She "just sort of popped to us as a natural presence, comfortable" on the air, said executive producer Jim Bell.

"I think she can handle it," he said. "I think she knows something about pressure and being under scrutiny. When she came here, she knocked it out of the park."

Jenna, who married Henry Hager last year, will work out of NBC's Washington bureau.

"I hope to focus on what I'm passionate about because I think I'd do them best job on them urban education, women and children's issues and literacy," she said.

While not as exciting as Melissa Rycroft joining the staff of Good Morning America, we're happy for Jenna and her newest career endeavor.

Adam Lambert: Hard at Work on "Eclectic" Album

Just hours after Kris Allen revealed the release date for his debut album, the man he defeated on American Idol is speaking out about his upcoming CD.

Adam Lambert told People that it's been challenging to put songs together this summer, as he's toured the country for weeks with fellow finalists.

"We’re still gathering material and we’re scheduling more recording sessions for when [the tour is] over, so we’re about halfway done," the talented singer said


Unsurprising to anyone that watched him dominate Idol, Lambert says the album will be “quite eclectic.”

“There are songs on there that are anthems; there are song that make you want to dance; there are songs that make you feel sexy; there are songs that touch you, hopefully, with more emotional, insightful, deeper lyrics. There are songs that are more in the line with a rock sound. There are some that are really pop-oriented... It's just going to be fun."

Megan Fox: Girl-on-Girl Action is Awesome!

The Los Angeles County Coroner has just ruled the manner of Michael Jackson's death homicide, and the official cause of death "Acute Propofol intoxication."

Reports surfaced last week that the signer's death would be ruled a homicide, which constitutes a death at the hand of another person, but does not necessarily result in criminal charges. In this case, however, odds are that it will.

Sources familiar with the case say prosecution is not inevitable, given Jackson’s long history of drug use, health problems and other challenges in the case.

However, in court papers, the LAPD has identified Dr. Conrad Murray, Jackson's doctor at the time of his death, as the target of a manslaughter investigation.

The Coroner did not disclose the full autopsy - just a press release summarizing it. But when the manner of death is ruled "homicide," you get the idea.


Michael Jackson Autopsy Report: Homicide.

The Los Angeles County Coroner has just ruled the manner of Michael Jackson's death homicide, and the official cause of death "Acute Propofol intoxication."

Reports surfaced last week that the signer's death would be ruled a homicide, which constitutes a death at the hand of another person, but does not necessarily result in criminal charges. In this case, however, odds are that it will.

Sources familiar with the case say prosecution is not inevitable, given Jackson’s long history of drug use, health problems and other challenges in the case.

However, in court papers, the LAPD has identified Dr. Conrad Murray, Jackson's doctor at the time of his death, as the target of a manslaughter investigation.

The Coroner did not disclose the full autopsy - just a press release summarizing it. But when the manner of death is ruled "homicide," you get the idea.

The report says "other conditions contributing to death: Benzodiazepine effect." Benzodiazepines are a group of drugs used to treat anxiety and insomnia.

According to the medical examiners' findings, Propofol and Lorazepam (Ativan) were found to be the primary drugs responsible for Michael Jackson's death.

Other drugs detected in Michael Jackson's system: 
. Midazolam (Versed)
. Diazepam (Valium)
. Lidocaine (a topical anesthetic)
. Ephedrine (for hypotension associated with anesthesia)

The final and complete report, including the toxicology report, will remain on security hold, per the LAPD, which is still investigating the star's demise.

No charges have been filed against anyone ... yet.

Dr. Conrad Murray, Jackson's personal physician, has admitted giving him what was the fatal dose of Propofol. However, the timeline in which that took place, as well as the various other inconsistencies, have police digging deeper.

He may well face a manslaughter charge when all is said and done.
