Michael Jordan’s 19-year-old son Marcus apparently spent 50-grand gambling and clubbing in Vegas last Friday night. According to sources, he Tweeted, "Last night was stupid 35k at Haze. Totals 50k something the whole day . . . Damn!!" But the Tweet was removed almost as soon as it was posted. There's no word why he took it down other than the fact that he was admitting to underage gambling and clubbing, that is. A rep for MGM Resorts which owns the club where Marcus was allegedly partying refused to confirm or deny any of this. She said, "We do not comment on rumor or speculation about our guests." As you may know, Michael Jordan has struggled with gambling problems. In the '90s, he admitted to losing $57,000 in a game of golf and in 2005, he told "60 Minutes" that gambling made him make some, quote, "reckless decisions."
We've got more evidence today that Mariah Carey is pregnant. She issued the following statement yesterday quote, "I appreciate everyone's well wishes.

We heard a rumour earlier this week that John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston were secretly dating again. Then yesterday, a news website posted a story that made it seem even more likely. They said that during a show in Hollywood last Sunday, John told the audience, "I believe in second chances! You might have been a pain in the ass the last time around, but you can still start over again from home base. "Next time you get a text from the one you love just text back 'come over' no matter what happened in the past. If you really love someone, just tell them and be with them." Meanwhile, a so-called "witness" said that a woman who looked like Jennifer was standing just off-stage, and John kept, "looking, smiling, smirking and winking at her" especially during [the song] 'I Don't Trust Myself With Loving You'." But MTV says that during a gig on Tuesday night in Irvine, California, John told the crowd, "I'm completely single" and then went on to describe for them his daily single-guy ritual of watching naughty videos on the Internet. John also wrote a blog blasting the news website because they try to be a legit news website, so they should be above this sort of gossip-mongering. He said, "The reason I'm calling you out instead of all the other magazines that make stories up out of thin air is that those magazines aren't concurrently writing pieces about Pat Tillman or WikiLeaks."Those other rags know who they are, and even if they're obnoxious, I'd rather have to live with them because they (and the rest of the world) know where they stand, which doesn't make them one tenth as dangerous as you are. "You're a stripper wearing reading glasses. Or maybe you're an insolvent law student willing to dance for a few extra dollars. Either way, it's uncomfortable to watch you try to wrap yourself around a pole when you have that C-Span scar."

Sounds like there's some tension on the Glee set. Reports say that 23-year-old Naya Rivera keyed and egged her co-star Mark Salling's car after discovering he'd been out with other women. The two supposedly dated, but were never an exclusive couple. An insider told the magazine that Rivera "went crazy when she read about other girls. When Naya found out, she and some pals trashed his Lexus." Salling's friend, singer Samantha Marq defended 28-year-old Salling, saying, "He's on top of the world right now and living it up. Besides, it's hard to call it infidelity when they weren't officially together!"
Elin Nordegren was interviewed for the first time this week, and even though she states a lot of the obvious it’s still pretty awesome that she gave the interview at all. Here are some of the details of the interview starting with the most speculated rumour, Elin says she did not hit Tiger Woods the night he tried to peel out of their driveway, and ended up hitting a fire hydrant and a tree. She says, "There was never any violence inside or outside our home. The speculation that I would have used a golf club to hit him is just truly ridiculous." Elin also drops this pretty obvious statement saying "I've been through hell." She adds, "It's hard to think you have this life, and then all of a sudden was it a lie? "You're struggling because it wasn't real. But I survived. It was hard, but it didn't kill me." Elin admits she didn't know a damn thing about Tiger's "addiction". She says, "I'm so embarrassed that I never suspected not a one. "For the past three and a half years, when all this was going on, I was home a lot more with pregnancies, then the children and my school." She adds, "I felt stupid as more things were revealed how could I not have known anything? The word betrayal isn't strong enough. I felt like my whole world had fallen apart. "It seemed that my world as I thought it was had never existed. I felt embarrassed for having been so deceived. I felt betrayed by many people around me." One thing Elin is sure of now is that the marriage is OVER. And she assumes it'll be a while before she can start dating again. Elin will continue to live in Florida, and co-parent the kids with Tiger. She also plans to go back to college and get a degree in psychology. She may even be able to forgive Tiger someday. In the meantime, things are going pretty well. She says, "I feel stronger than I ever have. I have confidence in my beliefs, my decisions and myself."
Here's some material for Bill O'Reilly's next few shows, Kim Kardashian admits that she would date Justin Bieber if he were older. On last night's "Lopez Tonight", Kim said she'd be up for it if Justin were, quote, "of legal age." She added, quote, "He definitely has this swag to him." Kim also defended the photo shoot she did with Justin the one that upset O'Reilly so much in the first place. She said, quote, "I thought the shoot was all in fun, we had a good time. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion on it."
There are claims that Heidi Montag might be ready to jump on board the celebrity sex tape train. She's supposedly in negotiations now with Vivid Entertainment the porno company that Spencer Pratt is threatening to sell their sex tapes to.

Jennifer Aniston’s latest romantic comedy, "The Switch", earned $8.4 million in its opening weekend. In other words, it was another bomb. And it sounds like she's finally getting the hint and getting out of the romantic comedy racket. A so-called "source" says, quote, "Jen thinks she's outgrown these types of movies. They were cute and audiences loved them years ago, but that's not what they want to see or, at least, not with Jen. "She kind of knew this was coming, but she didn't expect 'The Switch' to do that badly at the box office." Jen has some stuff lined up that's a little bit off the beaten path for her. In the dark comedy "Horrible Bosses", she plays an oversexed dentist who sexually harasses an employee. She's also planning on starring in and directing "The Goree Girls" the true story of a female inmates in the 1940s who formed a country and western group. Then there's "Counter-Clockwise" a movie she plans to direct about a psychologist who "reverses" the aging process by making her patients believe they're younger.
