A new Harvard study reveals that posting on Facebook brings some people the same joy as having sex. Researchers Diana Tamir and Jason Mitchell say, “Humans so willingly self-disclose because doing so represents an event with intrinsic value, in the same way as with primary rewards such as food and sex. Just as monkeys are willing to forgo juicy rewards to view dominant groupmates and college students are willing to give up money to view attractive members of the opposite sex, our participants were willing to forgo money to think and talk about themselves.

 

Cute As A Button: Hannah Matthews has a phobia of buttons and can only wear clothing with zippers. The 21 year-old Londoner says, “I know it’s irrational and I obviously know a button can’t hurt me but there’s just something about the shape and the texture that freaks me out. It used to affect my chances in job interviews but now, if someone is wearing buttons, I try to control my reaction.” Apple boss Steve Jobs had the same phobia and wore button-free sweaters.

 

If Hoda Kotb replaces Ann Curry then Regis Philbin may join Kathie Lee for the fourth hour of The Today Show. A source tells Perez Hilton, "Executives at NBC absolutely love Regis, and want to formally sign him to become a special contributor to Today and work with the network on entertainment specials. If Hoda is chosen to become Matt Lauer's co-anchor, Regis would be the natural choice to replace her. Kathie Lee and Regis have a long history together from their days of working together on their own show, Live! With Regis and Kathie Lee. The two have remained very good friends in the years since both left the show."

 

Kristen Stewart was once teased for having hairy legs. She tells Vanity Fair, "I hated school so much. Look at a picture of me before I was 15. I am a boy. I wore my brother's clothes, dude! Not like I cared that much, but I remember being made fun of, because I wasn't wearing (designer) Juicy (Couture) jeans. I didn't even think about it. I wore my gym clothes. But it's not like I didn't care that they made fun of me. It really bothered me. I remember this girl in sixth grade looked at me in gym and was like, 'Oh my god! That's disgusting - you don't shave your legs."

He was totally focused and kind of fussed over her. You could tell he really likes her. It was cute. She was all dolled up. It's very obvious that they're dating and are really into each other. Friends don't have Saturday-night dinner dates at L.A.'s Giorgio Baldi!"

 

Katy Perry is planning to take a break. She says, ''It's going to be alright for people not to see me for a minute.
