Can having sex at the office get you fired? The rules of risky business.
In honor of National Boss day (October 16) and recent work romance shenanigans, we wanted to explore what's legal, taboo and inadvisable in terms of sex, love and the office.
Between Oprah's flight crew debaucle and David Letterman's at-work affairs, looks like Hollywood could use some tips on dating in the workplace, too. While Oprah really had nothing to do with the alleged activities, the flight attendant who was fired for the misconduct is now suing Harpo, Oprah's production company, for $75,000.
According to the Chicago Tribune, flight attendant Corrine Gehris says that a fellow flight attendant and a guest on … Read More
True or untrue, Dr. Phil has a history of inappropriate behavior. Then again, so does the accuser.
Dr. "to hell with your feelings" Phil has been known for his quirky therapy techniques, but who would have thought that it would extend to left-breast groping?
But that's not all. According to People Magazine:
A woman has filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court against Dr. Phil McGraw, two producers and another doctor in what she alleges is a case of false imprisonment, practicing without a license, indecent exposure, battery, fraud and more.
Shirley Rae Dieu, 56, of Irvine, Calif., claims she was seeking therapy from Dr. Phil in his Hollywood office in 2007 when she allegedly was held … Read More
Singer and hubby have picked names, working on a baby.
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have made no secret of their intentions to start a family since marrying last year, and now, a source tells Bossip, they're hoping to announce a pregnancy any day. "Mariah is well aware of her figure and at the present time, can't do anything about it," the catty source says, which we suppose is code for "She must be pregnant! She's vaguely three-dimensional!"
Mariah and Nick have already picked out names for their work in progress; yesterday she told Sirius Satellite Radio's Morning Mash Up, "We have to keep the name … Read More
Daughter of Mamas & Papas singer details incest, drug addiction in new book.
Actress Mackenzie Phillips told Oprah today that her father, John Phillips, a member of the '60s folk group The Mamas and the Papas, raped her when she was a teenager. Mackenzie says the abuse continued for 10 years, and that she began to believe that their sexual relationship was consensual, even when she, a heroin and cocaine addict for years, went to rehab with her father.
"I boxed it away," Mackenzie said. "I started very early on in my life compartmentalizing, boxing away difficult memories, difficult experiences." She says she was 17 or 18 when her father first sexually … Read More

Even music royalty have to make cuts on the wedding invites.
You know that saying, "Stars are just like us"? Well, it's mostly true, except everything they do is awesome and we sometimes have to do pretty lame stuff. Well, when Jay-Z and Beyonce were narrowing down their wedding invite list, things got pretty mundane but at the same time awesome.
According to Yahoo! OMG (from an interview in O! The Oprah Magazine), Beyonce and Jay-Z were pretty concerned with keeping their whole wedding on the D-low and had to make some sacrifices when it came to the guest list. Loose lips sink ships and whatnot. Jay-Z (born Shawn … Read More
Whitney Houston's troubled love life apparent on new CD "I Look to You." Plus, Bobby Brown scoop.
Whitney Houston's sixth studio album I Look to You is on sale today, released to a mix of reviews calling it everything from disappointing to Barry Manilow's comment that it's the "biggest hit she's had."
No matter what the creative result, the album demonstrates that Whit is finally coping positively with her troubled romantic past. Her marriage to Bobby Brown in 1992 staged her tragic flaw, fetching her to the depths of drug abuse and a long-time fall off the fame radar altogether. In their 2005 reality show Being Bobby Brown (which MSNBC called "disgusting"), they … Read More
Rumor has it that Oprah Winfrey and Stedman Graham have split. Gayle King's cool, though.
According to the World Weird Webs (really The National Enquirer via TheFrisky), Oprah Winfrey and long-long-long term stud Stedman Graham have split. Rumor The Enquirer has it that the media mogul was on vacation with her bestie, Gayle King, when Stedman moved his belongings out of their home. It's hard to trust The National Enquirer with all the smack they've been talking about the bat boy these last few decades but they did nail that John Edwards story, so we'll sally forth into this territory lightly.
As you may very well recall, many people have been … Read More
Trump International Hotel & Tower won't comment on pair skirting a court order to stay separate.
A week before Chris Brown is scheduled to be sentenced for beating Rihanna last February, there's evidence that the two are unwisely disobeying court orders to stay separate from each other...in fact, they spent this weekend in shockingly close proximity.
Despite a judge's orders for Chris to stay 50 yards away from Rihanna (10 yards at music industry events where other people are present), he was spotted Friday night checking into the Trump International Hotel & Tower on New York's Central Park West—the same hotel where Rihanna reportedly already was staying. Limelife claims … Read More
Maureen McCormick decries Eve Plumb's distancing of herself. Fears it's over joke.
