I’m so happy Jane is returning to The Today Show.  She is beautiful, intelligent and someone I would love to talk with over a cup of coffee!

Jane Pauley is to start contributing a monthly segment she’ll produce with AARP for NBC’s “Today” show.

Called “Your Life Calling with Jane Pauley,” the monthly report will highlight people age 50 and up from across the United States who have reinvented the way they work and/or live to pursue their life’s calling, AARP said in a release.

Pauley, 59, served as co-host of “Today” from 1976 to 1989. She is scheduled to start appearing again on the morning chat show Tuesday.

“I’ve been thinking and talking about ‘reinvention’ for more than 20 years,” Pauley said in a statement. “‘Your Life Calling’ will feature people who’ve interpreted reinvention in a wide variety of ways. I hope our stories will inspire everyone to move toward the future with a positive new spirit, focus and energy — with a little help from a powerful team; my new partners AARP and my old friends on the ‘Today’ show on NBC.”

“This new series that AARP is doing with the ‘Today’ show is truly the product of Jane’s fascination and commitment to the topic of personal reinvention,” Kevin Donnellan — AARP’s executive vice president and chief communications officer — said in a statement. “I couldn’t think of a better person than Jane to take the lead on a series profiling inspirational people who have decided that now is the time to pursue their goals and passions.”

Jennifer Aniston is reportedly the latest celebrity to launch a signature fragrance. WWD.com reports that Aniston is expected to reveal a partnership with Falic Group, who is producing Eva Longoria Parker’s soon-to-debut signature scent.

Famous women with signature scents include Britney Spears,  Sarah Jessica Parker and Reese Witherspoon.

Hmm, do I really want a scent that will attract guys that are gonna do me wrong??  Thanks  Jen, but I can do THAT all by myself ! 

Mariah and Nick looked fantastic at Sunday’s Oscar Ceremony!  But, Mariah did a lil mumbling…could it be??

Mariah Carey hinted that “something special [is] on the way,” driving the tabs to surmise that she’s got a mini-Mimi in the oven. But her rep denies it.

 She must have been talking about the Champagne she’d just ordered Nick to bring her. 

Oh, wait..It’s Belvedere ‘VODKA’!   Here’s how the so-called story goes:

Madonna’s rep has blasted a report claiming the singer got into a bit of a tizzy while at Elton John’s pre-Oscars party at Soho House In L.A. An insider told the U.K.’s Mirror that Madge flipped out after realizing that the Grey Goose-sponsored party didn’t serve her favorite Vodka choice, Belvedere. But Madonna’s rep told GossipCop.com, “The entire thing is a lie from beginning to end.” The site also couldn’t get anyone from the Soho House to confirm the story.

Well, Yeah…I’m guessing because the staff would like to keep their jobs!  Ya think?

In the story that made the rounds on Monday (March 8th), a source had reportedly told the Sun, “It was left to one rather nervous waiter to tell her only Grey Goose was available and when he did all hell broke loose. Madonna was dropping F-bombs like they were going out of fashion.” Her manager, Guy Oseary, was able to calm her down, but Madge reportedly “sulked about the vodka and ordered a non-alcoholic virgin mojito instead. She was clearly up for a drink, but wasn’t prepared to compromise on her vodka choice.”

Oh, No she di’int!!

HungUpBoyToy wrote on PerezHilton.com, “She’s called the Queen for a reason. Madonna can do whatever she wants, she’s earned that. She’s at the very top of Hollywood Royalty. Long live the Queen!!! I love you Madonna!”

The official Madonna iPhone app is now in the App Store, and it’s free! Fans can browse pictures and read the latest news on the Queen of Pop, all while listening to snippets of her songs that are playing in the background. A fan “wall” for user comments currently has people hailing the app as “amazing” and “awesome,” with many fans adding that “it’s about time” she got an app of her own.

‘It’s about time’…Really?  Did I miss some sort of  Madonna shortage/drought that was going on?? 

Okay!! I’m happy she got  her appy!!;)

Taylor Swift has posted a behind-the-scenes tour photo blog on her MySpace page, featuring comments about her recent stops in Australia and Japan.

I’m sure K. West thinks Beyonce’s photo blog is soooo much bedda!! 

Ninety-six percent of females enjoy it when their partner kisses their neck. William Cane, author of the book “The Art of Kissing,” surveyed over 100,000 people throughout the world about various kissing techniques and preferences. The high percentage of females who want their partner to focus on their neck during a make-out session is especially surprising because only 10 percent of guys cite the neck as an area that needs lip attention.  Asylum.com)

Hmm, could this  be a part of the whole “Vampire” thing going on? Personally, I think you reach a certain point in  life when,- anywhere will do!
