OK, I don’t know who dreamed this up, but Gene Simmons will be guest starring in an upcoming episode of… Ugly Betty? Trust me, I can think of about a dozen other television shows that would be more appropriate for Gene Simmons before I’d cast him on Ugly Betty!

According to Gene:

On Monday, December 3rd, I’m shooting ‘Ugly Betty’ — not her…the show. Can’t tell you just yet who I’m playing or what it’s about. But it might give you a chuckle.

As most of you probably remember, he is star of Gene Simmon’s Family Jewels, as well as being the frontman for KISS.

I can’t wait to hear more about this character that will give us a chuckle, we will keep you posted!

I so love CSI Miami… but why do they cast such unbelievable actresses as Horatio’s hookups? I can sort see him with his ex-sister-in-law, but please, first it was Delko’s hottie sister, and now it is Showgirls actress Elizabeth Berkley. She is playing Julia Winston, Horatio’s ex (some say ex, some say ex-wife) the mother of his recently discovered son. She is going to get wrapped up in a murder investigation when her husband is murdered.

Elizabeth also appeared in a CSI: Crime Scene Investigation episode “Lady Heather’s Box”, albiet a bit part… let’s just say it inadvertantly involved her stiletto in a poor guy’s neck at a party.

You have to love Young and the Restless stars when they branch out beyond the soap opera, especially when it is the actor who plays patriarch John Abbott. Jerry Douglas is guest starring on the December 9th episode of Cold Case. He plays Eugene Robertson AKA Skip, in 2007. Sean Davis portrays the same character in scenes taking place between 1942 and 1945. Confused yet? Here is the description for the episode titled “Family 8108″.

The team re-investigates the 1945 murder of a Japanese-American family man who was persecuted in his neighborhood following the Pearl Harbor attack. Meanwhile, Lt. Stillman has decided to retire from the force.

This will be a don’t-miss episode for all Y&R fans!

Everyone loves to see their favorite love-to-hate celebrities as they go through rehab stints to cure their partying ways. Well, VH1 is bringing the show to an eight episode reality television series with B-list celebrities as they go through rehab on Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew. So which B-listers will be appearing on the show? We have most of the cast list!

Jessica Sierra (American Idol), who has just been arrested with cocaine possession, so it obviously didn’t work out so hot for her!

Lady wrestler Chyna

Brigitte Nielsen

Daniel Baldwin (the unsuccessful one of the Baldwin Brothers)

Porn star Mary Carey

Jeff Conaway (of Grease fame)

Seth Brooks Binzer - AKA Shifty Shellshock of Crazy Town

There will be a total of nine cast members, so we will keep you posted as to who is among the remaining two “contestants”.

It will be hitting VH1 in January 10th.

And here is a sneak peak with some scenes from the show!

Guess Jessica Sierra hasn’t learned her lesson from the last time she was arrested, because she was arrested again in the wee hours of the morning and charged with disorderly intoxication and obstructing or opposing an officer. And to top it off, she was also charged with two felonies - possession of cocaine and felony battery. Sierra, who made the American Idol top ten back in 2005 was on probation after assaulting someone by throwing a glass at their head.

Ironically enough, Sierra is also in the Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, a new VH1 show… we’re guessing she didn’t do so well!
