This week, Khloe and Kim Kardashian repeat a cover and weight loss interview almost verbatim for Life & Style magazine. Last month, Kourtney Kardashian did three weight loss-themed Life & Style bikini covers in a row. What gives?

The eight-guidos-in-a-house reality show is MTV's biggest hit in years, but this year Christmas and New Year's Eves land on the show's Thursday night slot. Should they air a show no one will watch or risk further cast overexposure?

That's the conclusion that Rob Shuter comes to in the Huffington Post when he says that the tabloid covers that carried his famous face didn't move at the newsstand. Well, let's see how Brittany Murphy fares this week.

In Touch Weekly's fifth anniversary party and obligatory afterparty went down last night at Tenjune in the Meatpacking. We hear a bunch of folks didn't even make it in the door. A publicist of our acquaintance says: "A bunch of us—from television, film, lifestyle brands, hotels, personal reps—were in line for 2+ hours and never let in while the bouncer 'Alex' at Tenjune let his friends (AKA emaciated underage girls) in. They turned away a reporter from The New York Times but let in Ben Widdicomb from the New York Daily News.... I mean, Tenjune is over, they are lucky the party was there and it looked like a hot spot for the night. And we all collectively agreed that we will not buy the magazine ever again or give our projects or celebs to them. We'd rather go to Life & Style! Seriously." Well, that'll be easy, since they have the same editor!

We're still not all sure what's going on at Bauer Publishing out in the wilds of New Jersey. But what has happened is that the editor of In Touch is now also the editor of Life & Style. Which is nutty? But what that means for the staff or the mag (if anything!) we don't yet know. [Mediaweek]

Now, we don't ever take Life & Style as gospel, but their just-posted story that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are splitting strikes us as a hell of a lot more likely than the usual celebrity weekly tripe. According to the latest issue, TomKat will keep up the charade through spring, living at Cruise's Beverly Hills compound until the baby is born, at which point they'll split. Cruise, always the gentleman, will buy Holmes a house nearby so that he can spend plenty of time with his little spawn and teach the baby all about Thetans and spaceshops. Or, of course, Katie could just have a miscarriage before the snow melts. That seems a bit more likely.
