		<description><![CDATA[Kind of like a Harry Potter book, right? Michael Lohan&#8217;s now Jon Gosselin&#8217;s contracts expert. Nothing but squares at the Daily News. Robert Pattinson hates his life. Carrie Prejean: monumentally stupider than previously imagined. Here&#8217;s your Saturday Gossip Roundup:

So, wait, when did Michael Lohan become a contracts expert? Oh, that&#8217;s right: when he started representing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[That NBC chair Ben Silverman is flying/being pushed out of the peacock coop isn&#8217;t really all that surprising. He&#8217;s always been kind of a disaster. A blowhard (in more ways than one) party boy with streaks of ego and irresponsibility.
Other than his professional failures&#8212;taking big, sloppy risks and never learning from his mistakes&#8212;there were myriad [...]]]></description>

Mostly it&#8217;s bad, embarrassing news for Silverman, who was heralded back in 2007 as the coming of [...]]]></description>

As the story goes: Heidi and Spencer got down there, and hated it, and quit the show. Twice.

Jay Leno&#8217;s rep says it looks like dehydration sent the Tonight Show host to the hospital last week. But Leno prefers to process his trauma by mocking Conan O&#8217;Brien and Ben Silverman.
Fine by us! And we&#8217;re sure future Tonight Show successor O&#8217;Brien and the NBC Entertainment co-chairman Silverman are both relieved [...]]]></description>

US network NBC has shockingly ruined the integrity of its dramatic show Chuck by allowing Subway what is perhaps the most blatant (and therefore laughable!) product placement in network TV history. Mmm, smell that chicken teriyaki.
If Chuck had better writers they may have been able to craft this one into something [...]]]></description>

After paying off NBC to take his Project Runway to Lifetime, the mogul had &#8220;personally&#8221; congratulated the network. Now, he&#8217;s calling NBC chairman Ben Silverman a big naked-arm-wrestling homo.
Or at least that&#8217;s the joke he made! The entertainment mogul was on Ryan Seacrest&#8217;s radio show yesterday and yukked that [...]]]></description>
