Overnight Briefing & General Reality Check - Jun 21, 2011

Trash talk and satellite dish:

HOLLY MADISON ain't happy with CRYSTAL HARRIS. Hef's former girlfriend lashed out on Twitter.com against the runaway bride and said doing a public appearance at a Las Vegas pool on your never-wedding day was "a new low," "disgusting" and "tacky." Crystal sassed back that "hard times show your real friends" and Holly jumped right back in the mix saying they "show HEF's real friends." Bowl of milk, ladies?
So who was it that broke up the Big Bunny and Crystal? Life & Style magazine reports that it was Crystal's songwriting partner, JORDAN McGRAW, who is Dr. PHIL's son. A snitch for the mag first spotted them getting cozy at the Chateau Marmont back in March.
But ask Crystal herself and she says she dumped Hef because of the strict rules and curfews he enforces at the Playboy Mansion, like a 9 pm curfew. (Lee)
Quotable: "To be fair, for Hef, that's three hours past bedtime." (Stevens & Grdnic’s "Daily Comedy Exclusive")

Meanwhile, E! Online reports Hef has already moved on to a new girlfriend, and has listed Crystal's best friend, ANNA SOPHIA BERGLUND, as his new number-one go-to girl. The 25-year-old is Playboy's Miss January of 2011, and insiders at the Playboy mansion claim that she's moved into Hef's room at the mansion.

The Reel Deal:

No SHATNER in "Star Trek" sequel: CinemaBlend.com was at the Calgary Comic Expo when WILLIAM SHATNER appeared on a panel and announced "I have become an acquaintance of J.J. [ABRAMS, the director] as of late but I'm afraid no... I will not be in Star Trek 2."
Shatner was also not in the first film, a reboot of the franchise which starred all younger actors, but which also featured LEONARD NIMOY. Nimoy, however, says he will also not be returning for the next film, having said last year that he was ready to retire from acting and that his cameo on the show 'Fringe' would be his final role.
Who is in the film? ZACH QUINTO will be back as the younger Spock and CHRIS PINE will return to play Captain Kirk. JOHN CHO (as Sulu), SIMON PEGG (as Scotty) and ZOE SALDANA (as Uhura) have all been re-signed as well.

Because he's a diabetic, Leslie was rushed to the emegency room. Doctors told him they had to take the leg to save his life. Leslie is expected to recover and will need to undergo lots of physical rehab. (Marino)
