Audrina Patridge Moving Out

The Hills is about to be one girl down, with regular Audrina Patridge preparing to move out of Lauren Conrad’s guesthouse.

Sources say that boxes were dropped off at Conrad’s pad on Thursday, and moving vans were seen outside the L.A. home earlier today, prompting speculation that Patridge is leaving the nest.

Her decision to leave comes as no surprise, however, with tension between Patridge and Conrad coming to a head in recent weeks.

The pair have been at logger-heads for some time, and Audrina has almost moved out once before, going as far as to look for apartments with partner Justin Bobby at the end of the Hills’ last season.

Former ‘Destiny’s Child’ Member to Perform on ‘Australian Idol’

Australian Idol has possibly snagged its biggest ever guest star!

According to The Sydney Morning Herald, two former Destiny’s Child performers have “been approached” to appear on this year’s Australian Idol finale show, set to air on November 23.

However, a source told the newspaper that a cameo appearance from the biggest name of all - Beyonce Knowles - isn’t looking too likely at this stage, with Beyonce’s peeps not “overly enthused” about the idea of the Grammy-award-winner appearing on a reality singing show.

“It’s not looking promising with Beyonce but we may end up with someone like [fellow Destiny’s Child singer] Kelly Rowland appearing at the Opera House,” the soure said.

In its sixth season locally, Australian Idol is looking to revamp its aging format, and producers hope an appearance by a former Destiny’s Child bandmate will bring the massive audiences from previous series’ back to the Network Ten show.

Australian Idol, Season 6, will premiere on August 24.

Former ‘Big Brother’ Winner Going Blind

Regina “Reggie” Sorenson, the 2003 winner of Australian Big Brother, has a degenerative eye disease and is going blind.

The former chip shop owner found out about the delibitating disease - known as retinitis pigmentosa - just three weeks ago, and has been rapidly losing her eyesight since the diagnosis was made.

“I will go blind. I was devastated and so upset. I knew it was there, but now that it has gotten really bad… it has just really hit me,” Reggie told Woman’s Day magazine.

The 34-year-old added that she was now declared “legally blind,” and that her greatest fear was not being able to watch her daughter, 16-month-old Mia, grow up.

However, there may be hope for the one-time reality television star. Scientists in the U.K. are trailling an experimental gene therapy to combat the disease, and Reggie and her family are considering relocating to the United Kingdom so she can be included in the trials.

Tara Reid on ‘Dancing With The Stars’

International celebrity Tara Reid has agreed to a stint on the Australian version of Dancing With The Stars.

The American Pie star reportedly turned down an appearance on Network Ten’s Big Brother (who then paid Pamela Anderson over half a million dollars for a few hours in the house) to join the latest line-up on the dancing reality show.

So far, Ms. Reid is the only celebrity to sign up for the latest season of the Channel 7 show. It is set to air shortly after the network’s coverage of the 2008 Beijing Olympics has ended.

At the end of the last series, co-host Daryl Somers was sacked, leaving Strictly Ballroom actress Sonia Kruger on her own in the hosting duties.

Big Brother Australia Cancelled

Big Brother in Australia is no more.

The once popular reality television series has been canned after a disappointing eighth season, which saw the nightly number of viewers slip by 1.8 million.

The decision to cancel the show was made by Ten programmers last last week, something that was heartily backed by the network’s board of directors. Endemol Southern Star, the producers behind Big Brother, were informed shortly after the decision was made official, but opted to keep the axing secret over the weekend while former Baywatch star Anderson - who was reportedly paid over half a million dollars for her few hours of footage - was injected into the mix.

Ten’s chief programmer David Mott said in a statement last night: “This decision has been going back and forth for sometime and we have been having a very close look at it.

“But it has still been a tough call, and while the numbers are still working it is now time for us to move forward.”

Rove McManus first announced the axing on his Network Ten variety show Rove, commenting that “not even Pamela Anderson” could “resuscitate” the floundering reality series.

“Eric Threatened Me With Sex Tape,” Says BB’s Brigitte

Since her snap eviction from the Australian Big Brother house on Wednesday night, there’s been a surge of Brigitte-related news on the web, not all of it pleasant.

Throughout her time in the house, blonde bombshell Brigitte spoke of an “Eric,” someone who everyone on the outside - and inside, for a time - thought was her boyfriend. In short, she was terrified of interacting with any of the males on the show, for fear her “beau” would take it the wrong way and think she was flirting or trying to start a new relationship.

Apparently, this wasn’t far from the truth. Brigitte was literally terrified of even talking to any of the boys in the Big Brother compound, but not for the reasons given on the 7 p.m. Daily Shows.

In an interview with YourTV.com.au, 21-year-old Brigitte revealed that just prior to entering the Big Brother house, “Eric” had threatened her with the existence of a sex tape involving her, and told her that if she acted up with any of the boys, he’d release it to the worldwide web.

Needless to say, Brigitte was distraught, and cites this as the only reason behind her two months of tantrums and cries to go home.

However, the day after her mid-week eviction, Eric made an announcement on a Big Brother forum, telling fans across the country that Brigitte was nothing but a crazed “stalker” who “threatened to kill herself” on a regular basis and “bashed” up any girl who came near him.

As always, there are two sides to every story. To get Brigitte’s side of the story, follow the jump.

Evicted ‘Big Brother’ Housemate Brigitte a Stalker?

Brigitte, the 21-year-old buxom blonde who became the latest evictee of this year’s season of Big Brother when she was booted from the house in a snap eviction last night, is allegedly a stalker.

According to her friend, the infamous “Eric,” Brigitte has taken her obsession with him to the extreme, doing drive bys of his house, bashing up his girlfriends, and even threatening to harm herself if he continued to refuse to be with her.

Throughout her stay in the house, Brigitte told her fellow housemates that Eric was her boyfriend - something which Eric insists is not, and never has been, true - and also hinted that he was a controlling partner, and would not look kindly on her for any of her interactions with males in the house. The young girl even went so far as to blame her relationship with Eric for barely speaking to the male members of the house for the first few weeks of her stay.

Since Brigitte’s accusations first appeared on the show, Eric has been inundated with abuse, both in real life and on the various Big Brother web forums, over his mistreatment of the blonde beauty. In order to clear his name, Eric made an appearance on last night’s eviction show, which, ironically enough, saw Brigitte evicted from the house.

During his short appearance, Eric explained that he’s never been Brigitte’s boyfriend, and that the two were simply “friends.” When co-host Kyle Sandilands pressed him about his claims that Brigitte was a stalker, he refused to comment further.

However, Eric has now decided to speak out truthfully about his relationship with the young Big Brother evictee, revealing “his” side of the story on the ‘Behind Big Brother’ forums.

Eric’s story is kind of lengthy, so follow the jump to continue reading.

Heidi And The Complete Pratt - The Wedding Show

Spencer (The Complete) Pratt and Heidi Montag are pushing MTV to get their own spin off show based around their upcoming wedding.

Complete Pratt, Montag’s “manager” and fiancé, was overheard at the Kobe Club on Tuesday night pitching a Newlyweds style show to MTV programming honcho Tony DiSanto.

Complete Pratt doesn’t want Lauren Conrad or anyone else to feature in the show to steal their spotlight. A deal is reportedly in the works, so get ready for more inane television.

The couple have been whoring themselves all over the place, promoting Heidiwood, Montag’s new clothing line, and being photographed with MTV execs. The happy couple have also been calling paparazzi on themselves everywhere they go to get as much exposure as possible.

The show I want to see it Hiedi and The Complete Pratt - The Divorce.
