- SNL may do a Whitney Houston skit on this weekend's show with Maya Rudolph playing Whitney.

-Whitney Houston's family is upset with Clive Davis for holding his pre-Grammy party after she died. A source tells RADAR Online, "Even IF Whitney had given her blessing for the party to continue, even that doesn't make it ok. Her body was lying in a room upstairs, dead, for heaven's sake. It was simply in bad taste, period. The family just feels like it was very insensitive for the party to continue. Yes, guests were on the way to the hotel at the time when they learned the news, but they could have had a prayer in the ballroom, and then Clive could have, and should have, sent everyone home. The food could have been donated to a local homeless shelter.”

Kidney Shaped Valentine: Terry Lee gave his girlfriend, Trisha Beckwith, a new kidney for Valentine's Day. She was diagnosed with Lupus after they had been dating for four months and soon discovered her kidneys were not functioning. Terry and Trisha traveled from Chicago to Nashville for the Valentine's Day surgery. He says, "I care about her, love her, and want her to live a normal life. The way I measure love is this: If you take the person out of the equation, and don't like the way your life looks without them, you are probably in love."

 

Tim Tebow says he cried after seeing a sneak preview of the new Navy Seals movie, Act of Valor. "To see what that man did for our country. That was something not talked about or celebrated. I definitely do appreciate what they do for us. It's a very inspiring movie." A group of Seals parachuted onto the red carpet.

 

Jessica Biel may be pregnant. Perez Hilton says Justin Timberlake accompanied her to the UCLA Medical Center earlier last week and was spotted looking at a mysterious piece of paper following their appointment. Neither party is commenting.

 

Adele is taking some time off. She says, “I am off for four or five years. If I am constantly working, my relationships fail. So at least now I can have enough time to write a happy record. And be in love and be happy. And then I don’t know what I’ll do. Get married. Have some kids. Plant a nice vegetable patch.”

 

Justin Bieber recently flew 6 year-old Avalanna Routh and her family to New York for a date. She is his biggest fan and suffers from a rare and aggressive form of cancer called ATRT. Justin met Avalanna after her friends and family launched an online campaign. During their date they played board games, ate cupcakes and signed autographs for one another.

 

Ryan Seacrest was recently doing a radio interview with Jennifer Aniston when Steven Tyler called in and sang Happy Birthday to her. Jen is a huge Aerosmith fan and squealed, "This is not happening... This is so great. Oh my God, I'm so happy you're on Idol. I'm obsessed. That will be my memory forever... That was a good one, you guys." Tyler celebrated Valentine's Day by stuffing as many roses as he could into his car and delivering them to his fiance.
