  Kelsey Grammer mulls a GOP political career as he stars in Broadway show

  FOX 411 | Editor

  

  Kelsey Grammer is back on Broadway in “La Cage Aux Folles” playing a gay cabaret owner. Interestingly, the openly Republican Hollywood star (a rarity) told the entertainment website PopEater.com he was pro gay marriage.

  “I don’t have an issue about it,” he explained.

  Popeater.com asked him how hard it was being a Palin fan in a big Obama town.

  You’re a Republican. What’s easier in Hollywood — being a Republican or a cocaine addict?

  Yes, I am a Republican. And gosh, I don’t think you can lose your job because you’re addicted to cocaine.

  Can you lose your job because you’re a Republican?

  I think you can. It can affect your livelihood. Drug use in Hollywood does not affect your livelihood. I clearly am in the minority, as a Republican. It’s fine. There are some principles and issues for me that are worth claiming rather than pretending I’m something that I’m not.

  Do you, Chuck Norris and Arnold Schwarzenegger get together and commiserate?

  [Laughs] No! It’s not really like that. I have a lovely life. I have certain political views about small government and that’s where I live. At the heart of my beliefs about being a Republican is the idea that the individual is America’s greatest national treasure.

  Sounds like a stump speech to me. Could we see Senator Grammer?

  It’s been in the back of my mind for some time to possibly volunteer my services to the country at some point. We’ll see… there are a lot of things to consider.

  'Real Housewife' Teresa Giudice says she is done having babies

  FOX 411 | Editor

  

  “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice gave birth to her fourth daughter seven months ago, and she says little Adriana – who joins Gia, 9, Gabriella, 5, and Milania, 4 – is her last baby.

  “I’m done,” Teresa, 37, told Fox411 when asked if she’d like to try for a boy. “Would my husband want to have another child? Yes! He keeps saying let’s have another one. We make such beautiful babies we should go for another one. I’m like, ‘Are you crazy?’”

  Paulina Porizkova rips Kate Hudson and Heidi Montag for their store-bought chests

  FOX 411 | Editor

  1980s supermodel Paulina Porizkova doesn’t like what she’s seeing.

  And what she’s seeing is breast implants.

  Everywhere.

  “Kate Hudson has gotten implants,” she wrote in a blog post for the modeling site Modelinia.com. “My coffee was getting cold while I, heartbroken, sadly gazed at the before and after pictures of Kate Hudson on the screen. The before: an amazingly fit, gorgeous, and yes, small-breasted young woman in a to-die-for red bikini; in the other, a blond starlet sipping a latte. The cup size was undeniably different.”

  SLIDESHOW: Celebrities Better Before or After Implants?

  Porizkova said Kate’s alleged bump-up “feels personal.” Keep Reading…

  IDOL 411: ‘American Idol’ gives back by taking ‘Teflon’ Tim Urban away

  IDOL 411 | 

  

  “American Idol” gave back on Wednesday night by taking Tim Urban away.

  Oddly enough, “Better Days” was not one of Tim’s worst performances — it would have made more sense for him to have gone home after his reggae version of the Rolling Stones, or when he botched One Republic’s “Apologize.” But if you line up Crystal, Lee, Casey, Siobhan, Mike, Aaron and Tim, he’s certainly the weakest of the seven. The only miracle is that he made it this far!

  SLIDESHOW: See this season’s best — and worst — contestants.

  If we were Tim Urban, we’d be feeling pretty good right now. Tim wasn’t even supposed to be in the top 24, let alone the top 7. And speaking of inspirational week, Tim’s ability to smile through what was at times very harsh criticism and come back fighting the next week really did inspire us. Keep Reading…

  Scott Baio and his wife in another Twitter tussle...

  Karen Berg | 

  

  Some people like to duke it out mano a mano. The Scott Baio family prefers Tweet to Tweet.

  It all started last week when the website Jezebel.com posted the “Happy Days” star’s tweet:

  “Taxes are DONE…That should feed, house & provide medical for a few lazy non working people at my expense. Have a great Monday!”

  SLIDESHOW: Catch Up With the ‘Happy Days’ Cast.

  The star’s wife didn’t like that the site didn’t pose any editorial comments and just let readers leave angry posts.

  Renee Baio took to her Facebook page to vent: “F**k you, Jezebel.com web rag!!!” she posted. “You bunch of FAR LEFT lesbian s******s!!!!!! No wonder you’re all lesbos because what man in his right mind could put up with all your c***ness? Scott Baio has more class in his p**s than in all of you all!!!”

  EXCLUSIVE: Kate Gosselin sad her run on 'DWTS' is over, but her partner isn't!

  FOX 411 | Editor

  

  Kate Gosselin’s “Dancing with the Stars” days are done. The mom of eight was mercifully voted off the show Tuesday night after her miserable foxtrot on Monday landed her the show’s lowest score.

  Our “DWTS” insider told us that behind the scenes afterwards, Kate said some emotional goodbyes and talked about looking forward to her return to full-time motherhood.

  “Kate cried backstage, she was extremely emotional about ‘DWTS’ ending, even though she did expect it,” said our source.

  Co-host Brooke Burke and Pamela Anderson were apparently Kate’s biggest supporters at the end.

  “Brooke loved Kate and really understood her situation. She spent some time comforting her at the end. Pamela Anderson gave her a hug and was very sweet to Kate,” said the insider.

  Her partner Tony Dovolani? Not so much.

  EXCLUSIVE: Sandra Bullock has 'master plan' to divorce Jesse James, source says

  FOX 411 | Editor

  

  Sandra Bullock was photographed hiking this week in Northern California with her dog, and without her wedding ring.

  Now, a friend of Sandra and her cheating husband Jesse James tells Fox 411.com that the Oscar-winning actress has a “master plan” to end their six-year marriage.

  “[The infidelity scandal has] broken her heart, and they will divorce,” the source told Fox411.com. “She is trying to pick her way through the mess and all the stress of knowing his three children will be hurt no matter what happens. The kids are what is holding her back from filing for the divorce immediately. It’s been tough and she wants to find a balance for them – they deserve some stability, even through the divorce.”

  SLIDESHOW: Jesse’s Girls.

  “With Jesse in rehab, she is trying to tread lightly.  Sandra is doing this on her own timeline and refuses to budge or give in to people who say she should divorce him immediately,” the source explained. “Jesse and his children are her family and in some ways always will be. She is not ready to scrap it all as fast as possible. She’s taken some time off and plans to stay out of the spotlight. Sandra and Jesse will talk again, but divorce will happen. She has a master plan.”

  IDOL 411: Singing well is the best revenge for Crystal Bowersox on 'American Idol'

  IDOL 411 | 

  

  Crystal Bowersox recovered Tuesday night from rumors that she wanted to quit “American Idol” by making her competitors wish she had.

  When we first heard the story that Ryan Seacrest talked Crystal out of leaving the show — which she sort of half confirmed, half denied — we thought to ourselves: “Oh no. This is going to make Crystal seem even more entitled than she already does.”

  But instead of appearing entitled on Tuesday night, she seemed noticeably humbled — and her song choice of “People Get Ready,” with its repeated lyric “Thank the Lord,” was almost too perfect on the heels of the “scandal.” Ditto for her emotional breakdown into tears at the end of the song.

  Was it grade-A acting, or just a sincere expression of gratitude partially inspired by having her dad in the audience?

  Nadya 'Octomom' Suleman takes swipe at reality TV moms on 'Oprah'

  FOX 411 | Editor

  

  Nadya Suleman, the mother of octuplets leaves her mother's home Friday Feb. 27, 2009 in Whittier, Calif.

  Nadya Suleman, mother of 14, has at least one thing she won’t do.

  She’ll never do a reality show.

  Appearing on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” Tuesday, Suleman took a veiled swiped at Kate and Jon Gosselin and other parents who use their multiple-based TV shows to support their families, saying “a parent must provide for their kids, not the other way around.”

  SLIDESHOW: Octomom Shows off Bikini Body.

  However, last June, Suleman’s lawyer said she had signed a deal to star in a reality TV series to be filmed by a Netherlands-based production company.

  Hmm. Guess that one didn’t work out.

  Suleman also said her “Octomom” moniker (she gave birth to octuplets) made her feel like a “carnival attraction.”

  In addition to the six boys and two girls she gave birth to in January 2009, she has six other children up to age eight. Suleman told Oprah she feels a “tremendous amount of guilt” when she holds one or two of her children and can’t be there for the others.

  Which means she must be guilty just about all of the time.

  Kate Gosselin gives worst performance of show, plays 'kids card' to garner sympathy...

  FOX 411 | Editor

  That … was ugly.

  Kate Gosselin gave perhaps her worst dancing performance yet on “Dancing With the Stars” Monday night (which is saying a lot), garnering an anemic 15 out of 30 possible points from the show’s three judges.

  It was the lowest score of the night by far.

  Gosselin looked like she could barely keep her eyes open as she just kind of walked around the stage in the arms of her partner Tony Davolani during their faux foxtrot to the “Breakfast Club” theme song “Don’t You Forget About Me.”

  During rehearsal flashbacks prior to her performance, she looked like she could barely keep it together at all, even having a hard time remembering her right from her left.

  “Kate has no motivation, and I have to push her every week,” Dovolani said.

  Davolani was obviously exasperated during rehearsals, and while he did everything he could to perk her up for the actual performance, he could not dance for both of them.

  “When I watch you dance, it’s kind of like the Charlie Brown teacher. It never becomes a formed sentence or a formed move” judge Carrie Ann Inaba said. Len Goodman agreed, saying, “It wasn’t really a dance, it was a stroll.”

  But Bruno Tonioli saved the worst for last.

  “What you need is a postmortem, not a critique,” he said.

  To add insult to awful dancing, when asked why she had taken such a dramatic step back, Gosselin mumbled about having her eight kids with her and devoting her time to them and not to her rehearsals. She then begged the viewers to take her kids into consideration when deciding who to vote off, as she said her performances on ‘DWTS’ were the highlights of her kids’ week.

  Really? Highlights? Yikes.
