Tinsley's Faux Reality; The Divine Ms. Madonna
• Producers of Tinsley Mortimer's upcoming reality show have been looking to add more drama by staging catfights between her friends and sister and having her chase men who are really just actors. At least the producers have solved their other problem and found a few "friends" willing to appear on camera. Regulars will include Hannah Bronfman (the party-loving daughter of Edgar Jr.) and Paul Johnson-Calderon (the guy who was caught stealing purses last spring). Interesting. [P6]
• Anderson Cooper has been vacationing in India with man-friend Benjamin Maisani. And it sounds like they're having quite the time: "Cooper's $3,200-a-night room features a four-poster mahogany bed and views of the gardens of the former Maharaja palace." Oh, and this: "Anderson's room has a large round bathtub. On the first night it was filled with bubbles and sprinkled with red rose petals." How romantic. [P6]
• Madonna visited the Malawi orphanage where she adopted her son David and one of the orphans approached her and told her, "You are our god." Not surprisingly, Madonna "seemed cool with it." [Us]
• Members of the "Burglar Bunch"—the teen posse responsible for allegedly robbing Lindsay Lohan, Orlando Bloom, Paris Hilton, and many other A, B, and C-list celebrities—have been charged by the L.A. County DA with felony burglary. Expect the movie/TV deals to follow shortly. [TMZ, Us]
• Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner held a post-wedding reception at the Kushner owned Puck Building last night. The bride wore a lovely champagne-colored dress; there was tons of food; Jewish folk music was played; and there wasn't a single "marketing flyer" to be found. [People]
• Ed Norton will run this Sunday's NYC marathon alongside three Masai warriors. It's not as random as it sounds: He's raising funds for the Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust. Ok, well, it's still kind of random. [NYDN]
• Remember when Charlize Theron offered to make out with the highest bidder at a charity auction the other day? Well, she was apparently also offering up a meeting with Nelson Mandela as part of the package, but he was never even consulted. [Daily Mail, P6]
• Did Josh Duhamel cheat on Fergie? That's what the National Enquirer is reporting, alleging Duhamel got down with a blonde stripper after meeting the woman at an all-nude club in Atlanta. Duhamel is denying it but the Enquirer says the stripper passed a "rigorous polygraph." So either he's lying and will soon be busted, the woman is a total sociopath, or the Enquirer's polygraph machine is on the fritz. [Radar, E!]
• Larry David has Catholic groups up in arms after his most recent episode combined a painting of Jesus with a splash of Larry's urine. [E!]
• Caution, TMI ahead: Kate Hudson and Alex Rodriguez apparently "love sex" and "they talk about it all day." [Us]
• Chris Brown has reportedly been hanging out with a new girl named Natalie Nunn. Naturally, she's appearing on the next season of the reality show The Bad Girls Club. Watch your back there, Natalie. [TMZ]
• Michael Lohan's latest claim? That Lindsay's mom, Dina, knows all about her daughter's addictions and he has voicemails to prove it, which he'll kindly share with Entertainment Tonight next week. [NYDN]
• Levi Johnston will officially go full-frontal in his Playgirl shoot, in case you were wondering. And Sarah Palin fired back at Johnston yesterday for saying that she referred to her son Trig as "retarded." She said Johnston has a "desperate need for attention." He ain't the only one, sister. [TMZ, Us]
• One of the doctors involved in the Anna Nicole Smith investigation wrote in his diary that he was taking drugs and he made out with Anna Nicole. Disturbing? Yes. But equally shocking? The fact that a grown man and doctor writes in a diary. [TMZ]
• Kate Gosselin told Ellen DeGeneres that she's "not thinking about [dating]," even though she's no longer wearing her wedding ring. Sorry, guys. [NYDN]
• Meanwhile, a TV producer is working on a show called Jon - Kate = Jon + Octomom, which would have Jon Gosselin and Nadya Suleman dating and taking care of their collective 22 kids. Great idea, folks. [MSNBC]
