Mary Weiland – "I reject the stigma that the words 'mental illness' carry and I'd love to be a part of the movement to eliminate it," Scott Weiland's ex-wife writes in her new memoir 'Fall To Pieces.' Within the book's pages the former model recounts how she and her rock god husband wore long sleeves at Leonardo DiCaprio's parties to hide their heroin track marks. She remembers building a bonfire of her husband's couture rock outfits in their driveway. And she remembers being dragged off to a mental hospital where she was diagnosed with bi-polar disorder. Sounds like a fun book.

Now the debate is shifting from the realms of blame and awe, and towards whether or not Oprah exploited the disfigured woman for ratings.

Larry King Carrie Prejean –Things got testy on 'Larry King Live' last night. Embattled beauty queen Carrie Prejean appeared in support of her new book 'Still Standing,' but threatened to leave when King asked her why she dropped her libel suit against K2 Productions. "Why settle since you had a fight to carry on?" King asked. Prejean refused to speak of the sex tape allegedly at the core of the settlement. "Larry, it's completely confidential and you're being inappropriate." But Larry pressed on, and Prejean continued to rebuke him until she finally pulled her mic off and the show cut to commercial.

Reebok EasyTone Shoes – You either want to see what all the fuss is about or you believe the hype. Reebok's new EasyTone sneakers promise to firm your butt and make your legs look sexy. But at the moment the ad is getting more attention than the product. If sex doesn't sell, it at least gets you to press play.

Lou Dobbs Resignation – Lou Dobbs had been with CNN since the cable news network's inception in 1980. Now he's on to bigger and better things. The venerable populist made the surprise announcement on his show yesterday, saying, "some leaders in media, politics and business have been urging me to go beyond my role here at CNN and to engage iin constructive problem-solving, as well as to contribute positively to a better understanding of the great issues of our day.
