The Los Angeles County coroner has ruled the death of actor, Jeff Conaway, was
accidental. The former "Grease" and "Taxi" star died May 27th at age 60. An
autopsy report on Conaway determined the cause of death was a major internal
infection for which he had been hospitalized for two weeks. The coroner did note
that Conaway had drugs in his system when he entered the hospital on May 10th.
The actor was on "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew" in 2008. He had been
struggling with an addiction that came out of a back injury when he was working
on the movie, "Grease".
Poison singer and reality-show star, Brett Michaels has teamed up with PetSmart
to design a line of pet products. Michaels calls the deal "a natural
partnership. "I know my own pets rock, and I wanted to design a line of pet
products every bit as fun and cool as they are," he says. PetSmart says it
became interested in working with Michaels after seeing him on "The Celebrity
Apprentice" in 2010 and his partnership with the American Diabetes Association.
The Bret Michaels Pets Rock collection will be available next summer.
After two kids and 28 years together Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed tied the
knot on Saturday. The nuptials were filmed to be aired on the 7th season of
"Gene Simmons Family Jewels" on October 18th. Simmons, of KISS, hadn't
completely let go of his rock-star lifestyle until not too long ago, and even in
a clip he only promises to "do my best" to stay faithful. Among the nearly 400
guests were Hugh Hefner, Bill Maher and the members of KISS ... including Paul
Stanley, who was in the wedding party. The couple's two kids -- Nick, 22, and
Sophie, 19 -- were also there, with Sophie serving as maid of honor.
Elizabeth Hurley is getting married again. Shane Warne, a former Australian
cricket star who has been dating Hurley for the past 10 months, proposed to

for both.
It appears that there's a romance brewing between "Dancing With The Stars" pro,
Derek Hough and "Laguna Beachs'" Lauren Conrad. "They've been on a few dates
together," a source says and they were very cozy. Conrad most recently ended a
long relationship with actor Kyle Howard in June, while Hough was linked to
former X Factor judge Cheryl Cole.
"Saturday Night Live" star, Keenan Thompson, 33, has become engaged to his
girlfriend, model, Christina Evangeline. The two are planning a wedding on
November 11th. Before Thompson joined the cast of Saturday Night Live in 2003,
he was everyone's favorite on Nickelodeon's comedy "All That" from 1994-1999.
Actress and comedianne, Nicole Sullivan has signed on for a possible recurring
role on "Cougar Town" as a couples therapist for Jules and Grayson. It will
come out in the next season that Grayson has a child.
Actress, Melissa McCarthy, from "Bridesmaids" and "Mike and Molly" has decided
to create a line of clothing for women who have similar body types as hers. She
was struck trying to find a dress to wear to the Emmys and resorted to designing
and creating her own dress. "Trying to find stuff that's still fashion-forward
in my size is damn near impossible," she tells The Hollywood Reporter. "It's
either for like a 98-year-old woman or a 14-year-old hooker, and there is
nothing in the middle." In addition to delving into the world of fashion,
McCarthy and her husband, actor Ben Falcone, are also starting their own
production company.
Crystal Harris, the Playboy model who left Hugh Hefner standing at the altar in
June, is selling the engagement ring given her by the Playboy founder. The

Christie's in New York City later this month where it is expected to bring
between $20-30,000.
"Arrested Development" is coming back to television five years after it was
cancelled. Creator, Mitch Hurwitz said the show will do a "limited" season which

The mini-season will then lead into the "Arrested Development" movie. No word
yet where or when the program will air.
Michaele Salahi celebrated her 46th birthday at a Journey concert Saturday
