Tuesday Tales

Singer Kelly Rowland will not be returning to the UK version of "The X Factor" siting the demands of the show, while those close to the show claim she wanted to triple her pay. It's also rumored that Simon Cowell wants to replace the singer with an ex-girlfriend, although that has not been confirmed. No replacement has been named yet. The man claiming to be the biological father of Michael Jackson's youngest son Blanket now claims that he and singer Whitney Houston had a fling sometime back. Houston was once linked to the singer's older brother Jermaine years ago. Former First Lady of G-Unit Olivia has reportedly signed a new recording deal after a hiatus from recording. No word on when an album is due. It looks like singer Rihanna has real acting chops after all. She's reportedly landed a role in next Fast & The Furious film. No word on when shooting begins. Fans of the reality show "Khole & Lamar" will be sad to know that the show has been cancelled. Rumor has it, however, that the network is considering a show with Khole without Lamar. No word on when the show will air. The cast of the groundbreaking comedy series "In Living Color" recently reunited. Just about everyone showed for the event, except Jennifer Lopez, Jamie Fox and Damon Wayans. Fox is currently working on a film, no doubt Lopez' "American Idol" commitment kept her away, and there's no word on why Damon Wayans was a no show. Rapper Lil Wayne has settled a suit with the producer of "Lolli Pop" and other hits by the Young Money CEO out of court. Fans will recall the beat maker hit the MC with the suit claiming he wasn't paid for his services. There's no word on the terms of the agreement between the two. Singer Mary J. Blige is set to star in a new reality talent show for E!. The show will feature contestants trying out for an opportunity to open for several well known and established artists.  Nicki Minaj is reportedly one of the many artists who will appear on the show. No word on when it airs. It was Classic Night on ABC's "Dancing With The Stars", and only time will tell who will walk away with the grand prize. Be sure to tune in to the results show tonight. On DVD: "Haywire", "New Years Eve", "Joyful Noise" and "W E". On the tube: "Glee" on Fox, "NCIS" on CBS, "Last Man Standing" on ABC and "The Biggest Loser" on NBC. Happy Tuesday!
