Why did Heidi Montag and Spencer Bratt quit NBC reality show I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here? I'd like to think it was guilt. Like they realized that they're on the Z-list and are unworthy of being in Sanjaya Malakar's presence, but I digress.

Speidi quit the show last night, walking off the set after the live portion of last night's show. It remains unclear WTF NBC will do about their departure. Time for Daddy Dude!

Once the newlyweds came back to the campsite, an enraged Spencer smacked a water bottle from the hands of Frances Gallier, one half of the Vh1 comedy duo Frangela.

Pratt also hid wrestler Torrie Wilson's bag away from the campsite in retaliation.

Well I guess those are all the updates for now. Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt haven't posted updates on their Twitter since May 29th! Apparently Heidi did Tweet after they left the show, but she's deleted them ever since.

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt thought that their newest reality stint, NBC's I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, show would be similar to that of The Hills: fakery! However, they soon found out that they weren't so lucky.

The show is filmed in Costa Rica in, like, the wilderness or some shiz. Spencer Bratt and Heidi knew that, but they thought that they would be sleeping in the Four Seasons hotel. Ha!

The duo tried to quit NBC’s I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! the very first day they arrived in Costa Rica to shoot the “C-listers in distress” reality show.

“They wanted to be treated like stars,” a high-level source on the series tells E! News’ Ryan Seacrest. “[Spencer] literally thought he and Heidi were staying in a Four Seasons, working out and getting a tan.”

The two refused to eat the same food as the rest of the cast, and complained about being teamed with low-wattage stars, among them former model/reality-show queen Janice Dickinson, actors Stephen Baldwin and Lou Diamond Phillips, former NBA star John Salley and American Idol castoff Sanjaya Malakar. An NBC exec had to coax the newlyweds to remain on board.

“I wish they got some real celebrities like K-Fed,” groused Montag, per the network insider.

You know I agree with my fave whorse, Heidi. Daddy Dude should have been cast on the show! These two are so ridic. Janice Dickinson is an iconic trainwreck and Stephen Baldwin was around before Speidi and will be after Speidi, but Daddy Dude? He is more on their 15 minutes of fame level and should have totally been a part of the cast.

I take it back. Susan Boyle should have lost Britain's Got Talent based upon her singing "I Dreamed a Dream" alone. During a finale is the most important time to be original. A dance group named Diversity won the title.

She also should have lost Britain's Got Talent cause she couldn't handle fame and was screaming at folk, went into hiding, and losing her shiz during the weeks that the competition was taking place. Honey ain't no Brit Brit. This woman couldn't handle a publicity tour of any kind. She was not made for fame.

Anyway, Susan lost and I'm happy about that but not so happy about Susan having to be sent to the loony bin cause she can't handle fame AND she can't handle losing.

Hope she gets better soon.

Jon Gosselin and Kate Gosselin are being investigated by the Pennsylvania labor department.

The department wants to determine if the TLC hit show Jon and Kate Plus 8 is complying with the state's child labor laws.

Someone filed a complaint, but the allegations are being kept private and the snitch's name won't be released during the ongoing investigation. You know it was totally Jon's ho Deanna Hummel or Kate's piece Steve Nelid's wifey!!

TLC issued the following response,

"TLC fully complies with all applicable laws and regulations.  Jon and Kate + 8 is no exception.  For an extended period of time, we have been engaged in cooperative discussions and supplied all requested information to the Pennsylvania Department of Labor.  We will continue to engage the appropriate officials and meet any standards or regulations that are applicable to TLC productions."

Kate Gosselin's relatives go on TV and talk sh*t about her and everyone except for TLC and her kids hate her ass. I doubt Kate will make the connection, though. You know she's blaming this all on Jon. Keep those cameras rolling, TLC.

You know I love me some Jessica Simpson, but I can't co-sign on this mess.

Jessica Simpson is working on a new reality show that will get canceled by mid-season.

The former pop singer and current girlfriend of Tony Romo has been pitching a reality show to the networks that sounds like something only senior citizens in nursing homes would watch, cause they don't have the strength to get up and turn the channel.

The premise of the program, titled The Price of Beauty: "She and a friend set off on a road trip around the world in search of what people find beautiful and why," says a source.

The onetime Newlyweds star, 28, will be hands-on with the show -- and will even try some of the "shocking things that women do to make themselves beautiful. Picture Fear Factor."

Actually, this show sounds like a Tyra Banks production. They should team up together and work it out. Papa Joe better work overtime on this one to make it good, and Tony Romo better cameo up in this shiz cause it sounds tragic.

Well ain't this some sh*t! The New York Times has uncovered some truf, yo, dude, dawg! This is hawt, yo! According to the Times, AT&T, American Idol's biggest corporate sponsor, helped Kris Allen to rob the title from Adam Lambert.

AT&t gave phones for free text-messaging services to TWO Kris Allen parties in Arkansas on the night of the finals! The AT&T reps also showed party-goers how to "power text" -- cast 10 votes at the touch of a button - which violates show rules!!!

Power texts, according to the Times, "have an exponentially greater effect on voting than do single text messages or calls to the shows toll-free phone lines."

No similar efforts appear to have been made to provide free texting services to Adam Lambert fans. Angry Lambert supporters are now claiming in online chat boards that the competition's voting was rigged.

While Fox has yet to comment,

AT&T issued the following statement: "In Arkansas, we were invited to attend the local watch parties organized by the community. A few local employees brought a small number of demo phones with them and provided texting tutorials to those who were interested."

I guess AT&T reps are a bunch of homophobic dickheads. F*ck this shit! Now you can't tell me Adam Lambert's sexuality had nothing to do with Kris Allen fans getting these special power text phones while Adam's fans received none!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I demand a re-vote and Idol needs to do something about voting for next year cause fans of the show will not tolerate this bullshit. At least I won't. This just proves that Adam will outsell Kris Allen by the hundreds of thousands, if not millions!

Kate Gosselin is the reason why some men are afraid of marriage. She's kind of a terrorist. Her haircut already screams "DYKE!" but the lezzies have better taste than men do and wouldn't touch her with a 20-foot pole. On that note, I would probably totally go gay now if I were Jon.

It's frightening how unlikable Kate is. She enjoys belittling Jon and she's actually pretty good at it. Is that her only talent? I caught the Jon & Kate episode where Kate was freaking out cause Jon bought some stuff without using a coupon. This story has to be true.

UsWeekly claims that Kate has Jon Gosselin on such a tight leash that she would give Jon only $5 to spend per day and if he needed more money "she would give him hell." I bet she would.

Rothermel, who fired Jon for misusing company resources, also recalls a very-pregnant-with-sextuplets Kate storming into the office one day. "She came in raising hell because Jon's father was supposed to bring her lunch and he was late. She got up out of bed rest to come in and yell at anyone who would listen!"

During Monday's season premiere, a beaten-down Jon revealed his lack of self-esteem. "I can't write. Some people say I can't talk or breathe right, either." (Kate famously told him once to "stop breathing so loud.") Also on the episode Kate admitted she's "been hard" on Jon during the 10 years of their marriage.

I feel sorry for Jon AND Kate. She's not in love. A woman who's in love doesn't treat her hubby like manure. The official divorce announcement is  coming in 3, 2,...

Jon & Kate's marriage is disintegrating, luckily for TLC that means big numbers.

The Jon & Kate Plus 8 season 5 Memorial Day premiere was watched by a record 9.8 million viewers! For cable standards, that is HUGE. To compare, the season finale of Lost attracted 9.2 million. And the season 4 premiere of Jon & Kate captured 4.6 million.

Kate Gosselin and Jon Gosselin are headed for divorce. It's only a matter of time. I think they'll both be much happier, but I feel so bad for the kids. Kate keeps on hinting at a pending split.

Her alleged bodyguard boyfriend Steve Nelid is already hitched. So is anyone gonna wanna settle down with crazy Katie and her crew of 8?! Regardless, TLC cameras will be there to capture it all. Famewhore Kate will make sure of it.

Lily Allen is doing what she does best, talking trash. Lily's new target is pot-bellied 48 year-old Scottish singing sensation, Susan Boyle. Lily said,

"I thought her timing was off on Britain’s Got Talent on Sunday - no control, and I don't think she has an amazing voice. She can sing, but it's not about talent with her, is it?"

Boyle "seems like a lovely lady but, if the show is about talent, then that Shaheen [Jafargholi] kid should win."

Why can't Lily allow Susan to have her moment?! I personally don't give a qweef who wins a show that I don't even watch, but it's time for our priorities to shift and for us to begin looking inward instead of outward. Susan Boyle represents that, and for that reason alone (and her talent), she should be crowned the winner.

Season 5 of Jon & Kate Plus 8 premiered on TLC last night and the only reason why many people tuned in was to watch the destruction of Jon Gosselin and Kate Gosselin's marriage. Critics really despise Kate and she just doesn't get it. She keeps playing the victim and it's not working. Her fifteen minutes are quickly ticking away.

Baltimore Sun's David Zurwik. "Tell that to a family in which the breadwinner has just lost her or his job, you silly, self-absorbed fool."

Ken Tucker of Entertainment Weekly notes that Kate made it a point to say she was "alone" about six times on Monday's premiere. (At one point on the show, she complained that "Jon decided he needed a weekend off," so she had to organize the 5-year-old sextuplets' birthday party by herself.)

Says EW: "You just wanted to say, 'We get it! You feel you're the Wronged Woman! Aren't you savvy enough by now to know you're not winning us over?' This was especially true when she noted that 'all of a sudden, your kids are calling you your babysitter's name.' I could almost hear millions of viewers shouting, 'So stay home!'"

 he Philadelphia Enquirer. even goes as far as to declare that the show is "adding up to disaster."

Zurwik of The Sun echoes that sentiment.

"For all the nasty and stupid reality shows I have seen over the years, I have to say this one did leave me feeling like I was looking in on something that I shouldn't be watching," he writes.

"What I saw was two people in over their heads, with one of them trying in her incredible arrogance to act like she knew what she was doing -- and an off-camera voice playing the melodrama of these lives for all it was worth," says Zurwik.
