Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher’s divorce is front and center on the December 5, 2011 issue of People magazine. On Thursday, Demi announced that she was ending her marriage of six years to Ashton “with great sadness and a heavy heart”.

So what went wrong? Was he a notorious cheater? As it turns out, there was some skepticism about their relationship, along with their age difference, his “wandering eye” and her insecurities.

A pal of Ashton’s said that the marriage “had been deteriorating for a long time. Ashton was ready to end it, but he wanted to wait for Demi to actually do it. He loved her but couldn’t live with her.”

The pal revealed that Demi “really wanted to save the marriage but couldn’t deal with the pain of his cheating.” Another source said, “They were fed up with each other.”

Ashton’s friend added, “If anyone was uncomfortable with the age difference, it was Demi, not Ashton. She drove him crazy after a while with questions and doubts.”

Oh well, it’s over now and they can both move on in happier relationships with people who care about them. Did you think it would last as long as it did?

UPDATE: We’re covering the grand finale — find out who won the Mirror Ball Trophy!

Yesterday, Earsucker.com told you exclusively, that teen singer Justin Bieber underwent a DNA test to establish that he didn’t father 20-year-old Mariah Yeater’s four-month-old son, Tristyn.

We’ve learned more details on the DNA test! Apparently, the test was done on Friday night, as we’ve reported, in New Jersey. According to gossip website TMZ, the test was done in a lab under “very controlled circumstances.”

TMZ reports:

We’re told there is a solid chain of custody, so it’s going to be hard for Mariah Yeater or her lawyer to challenge it.

As we first reported, Justin’s team will NOT settle or even discuss settlement with Yeater or her lawyer. It’s now up to her to provide DNA results from Mariah’s baby.

So, the ball is in Mariah’s court, at this point. But he has already made it clear that he’s going to sue her for her false claims when the paternity has or has not been established in the case.

We’re still of the mind that she is a fraud and was only out for fame. Instead, she’s going to get a huge lawsuit hurled in her direction. Hope it was worth it.

Tonight is an all new episode of Castle, titled Kill Shot. This is going to prove to be an excellent episode, as we’ve heard rumors that it will pull Rick and Kate closer together! I can’t wait!

In case you’ve missed the episode from two weeks ago, titled Heartbreak Hotel, click here for our recap. Until the show airs, check out this handy sneak preview of tonight’s episode!

From the official synopsis:

A sniper on a killing spree is terrorizing New York City. With the clock ticking down to the next murder and nothing to go on except a killer with no apparent motive but to instill terror, this could prove the team’s toughest case yet. The hunt is made even more complicated when Beckett begins to experience increasingly strong moments of PTSD – moments she tries hard to hide from Castle and the detectives.

Stana Katic, who plays Kate Beckett sounded off on tonight’s episode, saying, “We see a a different Beckett. We see somebody who’s not as in control as she has been in previous episodes. She’s dealing with something huge, something that a lot of people out there deal with — post-traumatic stress.”

She went on to reveal, “And from what I’ve read and discussed with people, that is something that is a problem but is not necessarily talked about and not necessarily admitted to, because the people that get it are often people in authority who have to keep the ball rolling. There’s no time to be off your game.”

Watch the sneak peek:

Are you excited for tonight’s episode? I can’t wait. I sincerely hope that the writers make Rick and Kate a couple before the end of the season…don’t you?

Tonight is the Finals on Dancing With The Stars — and it has all come down to three top contenders for the prize of the coveted Mirror Ball trophy. So who is going to walk away a winner on tomorrow night’s season finale?

It’s down to Ricki Lake, Rob Kardashian and J.R. Martinez — three fine dancers. According to DWTS cast-off Maksim Chmerkovskiy, he thinks that J.R. will take the top spot on the dancing competition.

When asked about who should win, he said, “Everyone deserves it.”

But afterward, he offered a more detailed explanation. He said, “I think J.R. deserves it. It is his right to walk into Dancing With The Stars and walk away with the trophy. But on top of all of that, he is a great dancer. If he doesn’t win there is something fundamentally wrong with America.”

And there you have it! Do you agree with Maks’ opinion on the winner? Sound off in the comments and let us know your thoughts! If J.R. doesn’t deserve it, then who do you think does? Let us know!

Astro acted like a total brat on last week’s elimination episode of The X Factor USA. So much, in fact, that Simon Cowell almost changed his mind and booted him from the show.

When it came down to the final showdown between himself and Stacy Francis, Astro almost refused to perform — prompting all of us here to wonder why this spoiled brat should be in the competition in the first place.

Now, he is apologizing for his actions on his official Facebook page, telling fans that he is sorry for saying that he didn’t want to perform on the show.

He said, “I seriously apologize to my fans, what I said and my emotions weren’t directed toward you. I’m 15 and I think I know everything, but the truth is, I don’t, and I handled the situation wrong! Win or lose next week, I will make you all proud!”

He went on to say, “I believed I was being mistreated, and in the moment I thought about Ali’s moment. I want to be the new ambassador for Hip-Hop and a leader of a new young movement of positive kids, but to be that I must have integrity and honor first!”

He added, “People are saying I’m cocky and arrogant, well maybe I have watched too many Mohammad Ali films or maybe I grew up with having to fight my way home everyday or battle on street corners of Brooklyn for respect. My guards are always up, and maybe I took the situation too heavy.”

He better watch his attitude then, because we’ve got a double elimination coming up on this week’s show!

Ashton Kutcher tried to save his marriage with Demi Moore by buying her a car!

We’ve learned that less than two weeks before Demi announced that she was divorcing Ashton, he spent over $100,000 on a 2012 Lexus LS 600h for her. TMZ reports:

Our sources say Ashton wanted a quick deal — bagging the luxury hybrid on November 9, just two days before Demi’s birthday.

If it was meant to win back Demi … clearly it didn’t work. We don’t know if Demi accepted the vehicle or if Ashton was able to give it back to the car company.

We think she should totally keep the ride — it was a gift, right? Still, after all of his cheating, it’s her divorce gift from that cheater.

What do you think?

As if she knew the name of the game in keeping her name in the headlines, Michael Lohan’s former girlfriend, Kate Major, has checked herself into rehab. We’re still of the mind that it’s unfortunate that we know who she is at all.

Kate has voluntarily checked herself into a rehab facility, in order to battle her demons with alcohol. TMZ has more:

We’re told Kate will get treatment for alcohol abuse. Sources close to Kate tell us … she checked into a treatment center in Boca Raton, FL and will stay there for 90 days.

According to our sources, Major made the decision after her alleged drunken plane fight a few weeks back.

We’re told Kate feels drinking changes her into somebody she isn’t … which probably explains how she started dating Michael Lohan in the first place.

At this point, we think her entire existence is a publicity stunt…don’t you? She probably called TMZ to inform them that she’s checking into rehab — if they’ll post the story. Ha.

Above is a photo of Christina Aguilera posing backstage at the 2011 American Music Awards, which were held at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles tonight. During the show, she performed Moves Like Jagger with Maroon 5′s singer Adam Levine.

The question left on our minds when we saw her performance were three-fold. Firstly, how on Earth did she squeeze herself into that tight, tight dress? Secondly, we were wondering if she was going to suffer a wardrobe malfunction during her performance. Thirdly, is Christina Aguilera pregnant again?

Watch the video:

She does look like she’s packing an extra pound or two in the mid-section, doesn’t it? What do you think? Are we seeing something that’s not there? Sound off in the comments with your thoughts!

Update: This isn’t the first time the pregnancy rumors popped up, either.
