"Jersey Shore" Season 2 is about to take off -- we're told MTV has instructed their cast of meatheads and divas to pack their stuff and get ready to destroy the innocence of another city.
Sources say MTV camera crews will start paying visits to the homes of Snooki, The Situation, DJ Pauly D, Ronnie, Vinny, Jwoww, and Sammie this coming weekend to tape them as they attempt to cram their giant egos into carry-on luggage.
We're told the cast is supposed to fly out to Season 2's mystery location some time next week.
No word yet on whether Angelina made the cut ... if anyone actually cares.
Devon Gummersall is probably best known for playing Claire Danes' geeky friend Brian Krakow on the 1994 series "My So-Called Life." Guess what he looks like now!
Foxexecshave been in touch with several affiliates, "applying pressure" to put Conan O'Brien on the air between 11 and midnight ... sources tell TMZ.
It's the clearest sign so far that Conan is going to Fox.
Our sources say Fox execs and Conan's reps have been "seriously talking," though no deal has been made.
Some of the Fox affiliates have been resistant to running a Conan show, because they'd make more money with the current schedule of sitcom reruns such as "The Office."
Several execs at the affiliate stations are saying they have felt the pressure from Fox honchos to take O'Brien's show.
And we've learned execs at several major Fox affiliates are saying a deal is "imminent."
"South Park" set its sights on Tiger Woods last night.
The episode about sex addiction -- which featured supported roles by David Letterman, Bill Clinton, Ben Roethlisberger and Charlie Sheen -- had the boys try their hand at a video fight game pitting Woods against wife Elin Nordegren.
The Rottweiler responsible for the deadly mauling of "Ax Men" star Jesse Browning's 4-year-old daughter is no longer among the living.
We've learned the dog -- which attacked Ashlynn Browning at the family's Oregon home on February 28 -- was put down last week after the family signed off.
The Rottweiler had been quarantined at Clatsop County Animal Shelter in Oregon since the attack.
Charlie Sheen had a "normal" day on the set of "Two and a Half Men" Tuesday, according to someone who was there ... but if anyone finds out who leaked the info to TMZ, they'll be fired!
We've learned people on the set got a memo saying they cannot convey any information about what happened on the set or in the production offices ... and if they do they will be terminated.
All in all, we're told, it was "a good day."
Charlie's sober coach was on hand. Sober coaches, however, can only do so much. We've learned Brooke Mueller and Charlie each had sober coaches at the Aspen house on Christmas Day when Brooke blew a .13 and Charlie blew a .04.
Nonetheless, we're told Sheen is doing well, taking rehab seriously, and went back to the facility after work.
Paula Abdul is supposedly thisclose to signing on for a revamped "Star Search" on ABC -- but if her reaction last night is honest, it ain't exactly a done deal for the ex-"American Idol" judge.
"Curb Your Enthusiasm" star Jeff Garlin says he wouldn't be caught dead on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" ... because he says Conan's nemesis "has no character."
During an interview with Jimmy Baron from 92.9 Dave-FM Atlanta this weekend, Garlin -- a long time friend and former roommate of Conan O'Brien -- claims NBC was "stupid" to replace Leno with Conan in the first place ... but says Leno derailed Conan's chances for success by doing the 10 o'clock show.
Garlin goes on to rip Leno by saying he has "no character" -- and says he won't be caught dead on "The Tonight Show" now that Jay is hosting it again.
The "Apprentice" reject who was busted for DUI after being clocked going 35 MPH on a California Freeway has just been charged with two counts of misdemeanor DUI.
Heidi Androl -- who Donald Trump booted from the board room in season 6 -- was arrested back in December after we're told she performed "poorly" on several field sobriety tests.
Androl -- who's due back in court on March 29 -- faces up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine.
You need to be in tip-top shape to put on excess amounts of hair gel and fist pump the night away -- so that's why the cast of "Jersey Shore" is going to get their physicals.
Sources tell TMZ that Snooki, Pauly D, The Situation and company will be submitting to full medical check-ups beginning Monday morning -- including breathing tests and a work-up of their family history.
And get this: We're told Angelina knew nothing about any of this. So either MTV doesn't care if she kicks the bucket this season ... or they have no interest in bringing her back.
