Spellcheck: Jostens, which makes high school rings and diplomas, recently misspelled the word 'education' on Horizon High School's diplomas. A student at the Thornton, Colorado school caught the error. His diploma read: eduation. Josten's made a similar error last year. New diplomas are being issued.
Bobbi Kristina has stopped abusing her body. Bobby Brown tells MTV, "Any parent that has a teenager in their life, they go through things. They go through phases that they might not be doing exactly what you want them to do in life, but they grow out of it, and my baby girl has grown out of it. I trust and believe that she's smart enough to not go down the same road that maybe I did in the past or her mother did in the past. She's extremely smart."

David Hasselhoff is glad Leonardo DiCaprio wasn't cast as his son on Baywatch. He says, ''I saw Leonardo and I said, 'You know what, that was the best thing that ever happened to you! You would have never gotten 'Titanic' and have been this big star. You'd be like Jeremy Jackson and David Hasselhoff, looking for work.' Ha!''
The paparazzo, who claims he was attacked by Justin Bieber, had no visible injuries when he was taken to the E.R..

We are tough. Lol. It's all good. Just gotta take it easy the rest of the night. Back at it again for u guys tomorrow." |

Bobby Brown thinks people should respect Chris Brown. He tells MTV, ''Chris Brown is incredible. He's an incredible dancer, incredible singer. I respect him a lot because he's held his head up throughout everything that he's been through. 'He's only been through a little bit, but the boy is talented and you can't take talent away. Talent is given from God, you can't learn what he does. He's a bona fide entertainer and he should be respected.' He's still young and he's got a long way to go. I'm 30 years deep into this entertainment thing and I could see him 30 years from now, still doing what he does -- flipping and singing and dancing. And now he's getting ready to do a movie, so he's covering the spectrum of entertainment.''
Katy Perry and Russell Brand may reconcile. Music producer Taylor Clyne tells Now magazine, "When it comes to dating new people, no one else measures up for Russell or Katy. They compare it all to what they had. They just need to put aside their pride and get back together."
