Anchorman Matt Lauer and his wife Annette are splitting up, according to various online reports.

Lauer, 52, has been anchoring The Today Show since 1997. Sources close to the show say that he and his wife have been "living apart for two months."

Annette, who has been married to the newsman for 12 years, has accused Matt of being unfaithful during The Today Show's coverage of the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, according to the Enquirer.

Reports also claim that Annette was made aware of her husband's cheating through Today Show staffers who allegedly witnessed Lauer "getting especially cozy" with two female broadcasters.

The couple have three children together. Back in 2006, while Annette was pregnant with their third child, she filed for divorce. However, one month later, she withdrew the petition.

A source tells the mag, "Matt is trying to keep this [split] on the down low. Lauer's NBC bosses are pressuring the presenter to maintain his image as a solid family man to appeal to his largely female audience."

Calls to Lauer's rep have not been returned.

Newsweek Article About Gay Actors Playing Straight Draws Conflicting Comments From Hollywood

Posted on Thu May 13th, 2010 10:50am PDT       By X17 Staff

Ramin Setoodeh's Newsweek article "Straight Jacket" is causing a lot of fury!

Setoodeh asks a reasonable question: "Heterosexual actors play gay all the time. Why doesn't it ever work in reverse?" But in a confusing turn, criticizes the very actors paving the way for others. "The [Broadway] revival of Promises, Promises hands the lead over to Sean Hayes, best known as the queeny Jack on Will & Grace," writes Setoodeh.

And what about Jonathan Groff on Glee, Cheyenne Jackson on 30 Rock and Wanda Sykes on Old Christine?

Well, Hollywood is pissed! Jarret Barrios - prez of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation - and Oscar-winning writer Dustin Lance Black wrote a scathing response in The Hollywood Reporter. Hayes' co-star in Promises, Promises Kristin Chenoweth posted an angry letter about the article, including the following snippet:

    "This article offends me because I am a human being, a woman and a Christian. For example, there was a time when Jewish actors had to change their names because anti-Semites thought no Jew could convincingly play Gentile."


Finally, Aaron Sorkin wrote an article for The Huffington Post, arguing that he doesn't believe "Setoodeh was being homophobic, just wrong." In fact, Sorkin doesn't hate on the critic as much as everyone else - he even calls him one of "the good guys."

Wow, so much backlash! Will Hayes himself comment, and does he even need to?

Christina Aguilera is the World Food Programme’s newest Ambassador Against Hunger, and the pop diva visited two schools in earthquake-stricken Haiti earlier this week to meet the children receiving food aid through WFP school meal programs.

Christina sang “Happy Birthday” to the children to highlight how reconstruction efforts in the country "are giving this long-suffering nation the chance of a new start," according to the WFP website, and she also met with WFP Executive Director Josette Sheeran.

Xtina announced her involvement with the organization on Oprah last week, telling the talk show host, “A child dies every six seconds of hunger which is a huge statistic for me. After having my own child I just had to be a part of it and do something about it and help change that situation.”

Good to see her letting her hair down and getting involved with a charity rather than barking at people for coughing during interviews!

David Boreanaz's Texts With Rachel Uchitel Hit The Web

Posted on Thu May 13th, 2010 9:51am PDT       By X17 Staff

Despite stating, "David Boreanaz is not part of my life, nor will he be" last week, some incriminating text messages between Rachel Uchitel and the married star have mysteriously hit the web, and Rachel has released a statement on the matter.

After Uchitel contacted the actor asking to see him, he responded, "This is not a good time." Uchitel (who has also been linked to Tiger Woods, Ryan Seacrest, Stephen Dorff, among others) then wrote, "Just f*cking go and be with her," and when Boreanaz said, "Why do u act like such a f*cking child!!! She is my wife," Rachel exploded and said, "Oh, please!! ... You're such a liar. You're never leaving. You've wasted my time and I'm once again alone." She added, "I can't f*cking be alone anymore. I've been alone my entire life." Woah really? We thought she had Tiger and a slew of other men to keep her busy?

Gloria Allred claims Rachel "understood that [Boreanaz] was unhappy in his marriage and had been for some time and she had reason to believe that he intended to separate from his wife," and that she was the one who dumped him! Allred also revealed that there is a video of David telling Rachel "how much he loved her, that he loved her then and that he would love her forever. She has kept the video."

Rachel released the following statement:

    "I did not intend to make any statements about David Boreanaz and our relationship. However, given the fact that texts were published this morning over my objection that were not authentic, taken completely out of context or incomplete, I feel compelled to address the false picture that has been portrayed. For reasons unknown to me I believe that someone is deliberately trying to portray me in a false light. These texts should not have been published. I am in possession of many authentic text messages between David and myself which portray a completely different picture than the one based upon the texts that have been published today.

    First of all I want to make it clear that he pursued me. Second, the authentic texts which I have reveal that David Boreanaz repeatedly expressed his deep love and affection towards me. Third, I broke off the relationship because I no longer respected or trusted him. Finally, I am deeply hurt and offended that anyone would think that I wanted to break up his family. Nothing could be further from the truth."

Say it ain't so!

Matthew Morrison, who stars as the motivational teacher on Glee, is wrapped up in a possible cheating scandal, according to Star Magazine.

The actor's former fiancee Chrishell Stause tells the mag why she decided to break off their engagement: "Because I believed he was seeing other people and just wasn't ready to fully commit."

And it seems Morrison's wandering eye allegedly landed on co-star Lea Michele. Apparently, a rumor linking him and Michele is the reason Stause called off their wedding.

Damn! Think there's any truth to this? I can totally picture Lea's diva behavior having something to do with this...

But who wants to cook when you look this good in a cocktail dress?

Last night we caught Kim Kardashian leaving Katsuya in Hollywood, and the reality TV hottie was looking dynamite in this clingy grey number. And who knew Kim was such a sushi fan? This is the second time we've caught her dining at the restaurant this week, so she must be as addicted to their spicy tuna on crispy rice as we are!
