Prince Harry Naked Photos Emerge After He Parties in Las Vegas  Prince Harry completely naked while partying in Las Vegas this past weekend. In the shocking nude pics, the 27-year-old prince stands covering his private parts with his hand. A woman, who also appears to be nude, is hiding behind him. A second image shows Harry wrapping his arms around a naked woman, revealing his bare royal behind.  Prince William's younger brother invited girls up to his VIP suite in Sin City Friday night after meeting them in a hotel bar. The group decided to play strip pool and fellow partygoers captured the wild night on camera. "We have no comment to make on the photos at this time," a rep for the royal family said.


Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes Divorce Is Finalized

The five-year marriage of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes is officially over. A New York judge signed off on the final judgment on Monday, a source close to the couple confirms. This marks an unusually speedy end to one of Hollywood's most celebrated unions – Holmes only filed for divorce in June. Cruise, 50, and Holmes, 33, are said to remain on amicable terms, continuing to communicate for the sake of daughter Suri, 6, who lives with mom in New York and gets liberal visitation – and travel – with dad.
 Avril Lavigne and Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger's relationship has been so quiet that few even knew they were dating. Now, after a six-month courtship, the Canadian rockers are engaged to be married, Lavigne's rep says. Lavigne, 27, and Kroeger, 37, first got together in February to co-write a song for Lavigne's upcoming fifth studio album. "A romantic relationship blossomed as they spent time writing together," a Lavigne pal said. On Aug. 8, Kroeger popped the question, presenting Lavigne with a 14-carat diamond sparkler. It will be Kroeger's first trip down the aisle, and the second marriage for Lavigne, who split from Sum 41 frontman Deryck Whibley in 2009. She had also dated Brody Jenner.

'The Office' will end next season

NBC is closing The Office. The veteran comedy — and NBC’s highest-rated scripted series (gulp!) — will conclude after the upcoming ninth season. Despite its status as the network’s top entertainment program, the show fell to an all-time ratings low last season following the exit of Steve Carell and general sense among fans that the comedy’s best days were behind it. Now original showrunner (seasons 1-5) Greg Daniels is retaking the creative reins for one last season. “This year feels like the last chance to really go out together and make an artistic ending for the show that pays off a lot of the stuff that matters most to fans,” Daniels announced to reporters Tuesday. “This will be the last season of The Office. And we’re planning a very big exciting last season. We’re going to have a lot of faces coming back … There are a lot of things that I’ve personally been wanting to do since season two … All questions will be answered this year. We’re going to see who’s behind the documentary … Now that we know we have an end date we can blow things up and take some chances and it will be very freeing, creatively.” The decision was partly driven by the sense that many of the actors would likely not be around for a tenth season (either due to commitments on other projects, like Mindy Kaling and Rainn Wilson, or due to the rising cost of the show’s key players, like John Krasinski and Jenna Fischer). “You have a choice — only tell the beginning of story and the middle, or allow a story to end,” Daniels said. “If we didn’t let it end this year, I don’t think we would have been able to tell the ending stories of so many characters… we couldn’t count on getting everybody back for season 10.”
MICHAEL-STRAHAN.jpg Former NFL player Michael Strahan will be Kelly Ripa’s new co-host on Live! with Kelly, sources confirmed. His hiring comes after a several months-long search for a new co-host to replace Regis Philbin, who left the show in November. ABC had no comment. Back in July, it was rumored that the field was down to three hosts — Strahan, SNL‘s Seth Meyers, and singer Josh Groban. In an EW poll, almost 50 percent of readers said Meyers was their top pick. Strahan came in second with 31 percent of the votes. Yesterday, the show announced its new season would start Sept. 3 and feature Ripa hosting the show solo for the very first time. Her debut with a new co-host is set for Sept. 4, with guests Claire Danes and American Idol winner Phillip Phillips.


Kevin Costner as Jack Ryan
Kevin Costner has accepted the role of the mentor to Jack Ryan, played by Chris Pine, in the upcoming prequel and reboot of the CIA analyst franchise (previous films include The Hunt for Red October, Patriot Games), reports Deadline.com. Kenneth Branagh is directing, and also stars as the film’s main bad guy in a script co-written by author Tom Clancy. A deal in the works also brings Costner in on the Jack Ryan spinoff Without Remorse.


'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' moves to earlier timeslot

Soon, Jimmy Kimmel fans won’t have to stay up quite as late to see the comedian. ABC announced today that Jimmy Kimmel Live! is moving to 11:35 p.m., putting it head-to-head with The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Late Show with David Letterman. Nightline will move to 12:35 a.m. The switch will take place January 8. “Given the passionate fan base Jimmy Kimmel Live! has built over the past decade and the show’s ratings and creative momentum this season, the time is right to make this move,” Anne Sweeney, co-chair, Disney Media Networks and president of Disney/ABC Television Group, said in a press release. “There is the potential for far greater upside over the long-term with this shift, given increased advertiser demand for competitive entertainment programming in the time slot.”
