 GUESSING GAME photo | Jessica Simpson New photos of Jessica Simpson won't do much to quell speculation that she is pregnant. Arriving at JFK from LAX Monday, Simpson was seen with what appears to be a more pronounced belly. It's the latest in a series of photos that have stirred up rumors that the singer, actress and fashion mogul, 31, and fiancé Eric Johnson are expecting.



Matt Barnes and Gloria Govan Split
Los Angeles Lakers player Matt Barnes ... who just announced that he's officially broken up with his "Basketball Wives" baby mama Gloria Govan. Barnes -- who has 2 children with Govan -- just released a statement saying, "We have reached the difficult decision of ending our relationship and will be going our separate ways at this time." He adds, "We will work together to raise our sons and wish each other only the best." Barnes and Govan have had some issues in the past -- including the time Matt was arrested on suspicion of domestic violence back in 2010 ... but prosecutors didn't press charges due to a lack of evidence.



'Harry Potter' films disappearing from stores soon after Dec. 29!

Harry Potter said his last goodbye this summer, with the release of the franchise’s final chapter, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 2, and Warner Bros. seems determined to prove they really meant it. As of Dec. 29, no more Harry Potter theatrical film titles (including Harry Potter: The Complete 8-Film Collection) will be shipped to stores, initiating a profitable home entertainment model not unlike the one at Disney, which periodically re-releases its classics for home purchase. (Warner Bros.’ moratorium on Potter will not include digital — Electronic Sell-Through and VOD — or games). Since Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was released in 2001, the Harry Potter franchise has grossed more than $12.1 billion for Warner Bros. Entertainment — $5.1 billion of which came from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. It’s fair to say that figure will grow even larger this holiday season, as children and young adults who grew up with the books and movies feel the pressure to snap up the Complete 8-Film Collection — at around $60 — while they still can.




Thomas Ian Nicholas Welcomes Son Nolan River

There’s a new, sweet little slice of American Pie on the scene: Thomas Ian Nicholas is a dad. The actor’s wife Colette, 36, gave birth to their first child, Nolan River. Nolan weighed in at 7 lbs., 4 oz., is 20 inches long. Nolan’s birth is one of the many personal highlights for the gang — whose major players are all back together for the forthcoming American Reunion. In the last 12 years, Jason Biggs, Tara Reid, Mena Suvari and Alyson Hannigan have all married, and Hannigan welcomed daughter Satyana in 2009.



Robin Williams Remarries
The comic and Oscar-winning actor, 60, married graphic designer Susan Schneider at the luxurious Meadowood Resort in the Napa Valley town of St. Helena, Calif., on Sunday.

It's the third marriage for the "Good Morning Vietnam" star who finalized his divorce with second wife Marsha last year. He has three kids: son Zachary, 28, with first wife Valerie, and daughter Zelda, 22, and Cody, 19, with ex Marsha.

TV NEWS
The bubbly 37-year-old, who went public with her breast cancer diagnosis on Oct. 17, returned to E! News on Monday, just five days after she underwent a double lumpectomy. "I'm so thrilled to get back to work and return to my E! family today," Giuliana told E! News. "I still have a long road ahead, but thanks to everyone's overwhelming love, support and prayers, it will be an easier journey." The Fashion Police co-host is expecte to begin radiation treatments in a month.



Yes, he’s back: Chord Overstreet has inked a deal with Fox to return to Glee. The actor has signed up for a multi-episode/recurring arc on the show, and is back on the air sooner than you might think. Sam Evans is set to reunite with the glee club in December. The move might help boost the show’s ratings — Glee has seen its numbers slip since returning this fall.



FOX Television Stations and Debmar Mercury announced today the renewal of "The Wendy Williams Show" through 2014 on the FOX-owned stations. "The Wendy Williams Show" is a daily one-hour entertainment talk show which premiered in July 2009 and features mother, wife and best-selling author Wendy Williams.




It’s no secret that James Lafferty’s presence in the upcoming ninth and final season of The CW’s One Tree Hill (premiering at midseason) will be scaled back in a major way. But would the primetime sudser’s longtime star really miss out on its ultimate swan song? Thankfully, River Court fans, the answer is no. Nathan Scott will make it back to his old stomping grounds in time for the gang’s final hurrah.




Nick at Nite has given the green light to its first original scripted pilot: the multi-cam comedy, Daddy’s Home, starring Scott Baio (Charles In Charge).




Sitcom vet Jenna Elfman is taking a rare dramatic detour with a recurring role on the fifth and final season of Damages. The Dharma & Greg alum will play an investment bank employee troubled by her company’s conduct. When she approaches Channing McClaren (previously announced special guest star Ryan Phillippe), the iconoclastic founder of a WikiLeaks-type Website devoted to corporate and government transparency, it lays the foundation for the case that will pit Patty Hewes (Glenn Close) and Ellen Parsons (Rose Byrne) against each other.






A&E has announced that Stephen King’s much-anticipated miniseries, Bag of Bones, will premiere Sunday, Dec. 11. The four-hour saga stars erstwhile James Bond Pierce Brosnan, Melissa George (Alias), Jason Priestly (Beverly Hills, 90210), Annabeth Gish (Pretty Little Liars) and Anika Noni Rose (Dreamgirls).
