Less than a month after he was assured he would return, Brian Billick has been fired as Ravens head coach, a team source said today.
Billick was informed of owner Steve Bisciotti's decision a day after the Ravens wrapped a dismal 5-11 season. The Ravens held their team meeting at 1:30 p.m. today and Billick was not at team headquarters.
See "In Pieces": Telling me to go, but hands beg me to stay. Your lips say that you love. Your eyes say that you hate. There's truth in your lies, doubt in your faith. What you build you lay to waste.... All I've got's what you didn't take.
Diddy’s twins D’Lila Star Combs and Jessie James Combs turned 1-year-old last week.
Sean Penn and wife Robin Wright Penn are divorcing, their rep, Mara Buxbaum, confirms to PEOPLE exclusively. The couple, who've been married 11 years, have two children together, Hopper Jack, 14, and Dylan Frances, 16.
The New England Patriots' shot at history Saturday night will be available for every household in the country with a television after months of wrangling.
The game against the New York Giants, in which the Patriots could become the first NFL team to go 16-0 in the regular season, was originally scheduled to be shown only on the NFL Network, which is available in fewer than 40 percent of the nation's homes with TVs.
But the league announced Wednesday that the NFL Network feed will be simulcast on NBC and CBS. It's a major concession by league officials, who repeatedly said they would not show the game anywhere but the NFL Network. The NFL had faced mounting pressure from politicians in recent weeks to make the game available to more viewers.
This will be the first three-network simulcast in NFL history and the first simulcast of any kind of an NFL game since the first Super Bowl in 1967, when CBS and NBC both televised the first meeting of the champions of the newly merged National Football League and American Football League.
First up, National Treasure 2. I'm a big fan of the first movie. It's a guilty pleasure, a poor man's DaVinci Code. The sequel was not as good as the first (of course), but it was still an enjoyable, pop-corny movie. I think I just invented a term. A blend of popcorn and corny. I'm freaking brilliant. Moving on.
Next, Juno, which is one of the best movies of the year. It's the Jamie Lynn Spears story, but funny. And less white trash. Ellen Page, who plays Juno, is really good. Juno's such a funny kid and the other characters are well written too. It's sweetly funny, with some LOL moments.
Finally, Sweeney Todd. Another really good movie, but so different from the others - a dark musical. I'm going to go out on a limb here and boldly proclaim that Johnny Depp is a really good actor. The movie is a pretty typical Tim Burton movie, which is a good thing. As with most musicals, it takes a while to get into the fact that they're singing, but it's such a demented, fun movie.
They were both awesome. In the evening we saw the Harlem Gospel Choir perform Christmas songs, which was the best way to get in the Christmas spirit in spite of the 80-degree weather, and also a new laser/fountain/live action spectacle known as Fantasmic! ("!" included in the name). It was cool - there's a reason 10,000 fill the amphitheater 30 minutes before show time. 
Someone's been trolling the interwebs for videos.
I bring you yet another crappy pirated video. This time of a preview of Heroes: Volume 3 that was shown in L.A. this past weekend. They apparently have the equivalent of 2 episodes ready to go, but of course the writers' strike has halted production.
GIVE THE WRITERS WHAT THEY WANT! I can't take it anymore. I'm jonesing for a Heroes fix, but then seeing this is just making me flat-out angry. If you watch it you'll know what I mean - the part where you can hear the audience gasp. Dagger!
This is a pretty brilliant mash-up of The Dark Knight audio and The Office video. I loves it!
"It was a shock for both of us, so unexpected," Jamie Lynn Spears exclusively tells the new issue of OK! Magazine about her surprise pregnancy. "I was in complete and total shock and so was he."
Jamie Lynn told her mother Lynne just before Thanksgiving, the magazine reports. "She was very upset because it wasn't what she expected at all," Spears says. "A week after, she had time to cope with it and became very supportive."
Lynne Spears tells OK!: "I didn't believe it because Jamie Lynn's always been so conscientious. She's never late for her curfew. I was in shock. I mean, this is my 16-year-old baby."
What message does the sixteen year old Spears want to send to other teens about premarital sex? "I definitely don't think it's something you should do; it's better to wait," she says. "But I can't be judgmental because it's a position I put myself in."
Unlike Britney, Jamie Lynn says she plans to raise the baby in her home state of Louisiana — "so it can have a normal family life."
Kevin McKidd's time travels appear to be over. NBC had until Tuesday to award a full-season pickup to Journeyman but... didn't, says the Hollywood Reporter, and thus has essentially dismissed the drama.
Small consolation to Journeyman fans: The show was able to complete its original 13-episode order before the WGA struck, and the remaining two will air as scheduled, an NBCer assures the trade.
Jessica Alba is pregnant with boyfriend Cash Warren's child, her rep tells PEOPLE exclusively. "I can confirm that Jessica and Cash are expecting a baby in late spring, early summer," says rep Brad Cafarelli. Alba, 26, has dated Warren, 28, since the fall of 2004 after they met on the set of The Fantastic Four, on which Warren was a director's assistant.
Not many kids have a foundation launched in their honor before they're born. But that will be one of the many privileges bestowed upon Nicole Richie and Joel Madden's baby, due in January.
The couple hosted a surprise baby shower Monday for 100 expectant and new moms at the Los Angeles Free Clinic in Hollywood, where they handed out more than $200,000 worth of gifts. "The looks on their faces were priceless," Richie told reporters after the shower. "Some of them didn't even believe us [when they saw the gifts]. They thought we were joking."
The Richie Madden Children's Foundation (at richiemaddenfoundation.com), Madden said, was an idea the couple had when they found out they were expecting. "We grew up in Los Angeles," he said, "and we want our child to be a part of the community, and to know that there's a responsibility to help the community."
The rumors have raged for the past few weeks but Entertainment Weekly can now confirm that Christian Bale is set to star in the Terminator reboot...Terminator Salvation: The Future Begins. No official word yet on what role Bale will play in the film, which McG is directing and Halcyon is producing for Warner Bros. One source tells us that the story line is a big departure from the originals starring Arnold Schwarzenegger. Details are being kept so close to the vest that only a very few people have read the last ten pages of the script. All we know is that Bale is one valuable commodity to those folks at Warners.
