A.J. HAMMER, HLN CO-HOST, "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT": We`ve got big news breaking today on "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT." The Hoff in crisis? Shocking news today, David Hasselhoff`s new show cancelled after just two episodes.

DAVID HASSELHOFF, ACTOR: It`s a tough, tough, tough business.

The Hoff kicked off "Dancing with the Stars" the first week. The "Showbiz Flashpoint" today, is the Hoff`s career in crisis?

BROOKE ANDERSON, HLN CO-HOST, "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT": "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" names the most provocative celebrity of the week. Will it be Sarah Palin for her reality TV hunting trip controversy, Kathy Griffin for calling Bristol Palin fat, or Helen Mirren bashing Hollywood?

HAMMER: TV`s most provocative entertainment news show --

ANDERSON: Starts right now.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

HAMMER: Hello, I`m A.J. Hammer.

ANDERSON: And I`m Brooke Anderson. We`re coming to you from New York City with big news breaking today. The Hoff in crisis? Today David Hasselhoff is out of another big time TV gig. His brand new A&E reality was show suddenly pulled off the air after just two episodes.

The shocking decision comes after a pretty public professional setback for the Hoff. He got voted off this past season of the hit show "Dancing with the Stars" after just one round, and he lost his high profile job as a judge on "America`s Got Talent."

The Hoff has said he was hoping the newly cancelled reality show would help him make back the money he`s lost in a bitter divorce and through other personal problems, but now we`ve got to wonder, is the Hoff in big trouble? Has he gone from "Baywatch" bonanza to a complete bust?

HAMMER: With us in New York is Ereka Vetrini, a senior editor with "In Touch Weekly" and Ben Widdecombe, who is a celebrity journalist.

I don`t know about you guys, but I was shocked when I found out David Hasselhoff`s new show was already yanked off the air. It just aired two times. Usually in cable you great little more time. Is the Hoff`s career in crisis in your mind?

BEN WIDDECOMBE, CELEBRITY JOURNALIST: I think he`s done incredibly well. We loved "Baywatch" and "Knight Rider." Those were both a long time ago. I think he`s more like a novelty star now. So it renews my faith in human nature that there are some stars we don`t want to so on reality TV.

EREKA VETRINI, SENIOR EDITOR, "IN TOUCH" WEEKLY: That`s why it didn`t do well. We didn`t see him in the raw. We wanted to see all the issues he had to overcome. We were getting this polished dad who was trying to promote his two daughter`s careers.

ANDERSON: It hasn`t been always so polished.

VETRINI: I think that would have made it more intriguing and more attractive.

WIDDECOMBE: Eating a cheeseburger off the floor.

HAMMER: I think the Hoff it s trying to find work where he can get it. His spokesperson told us the Hoff is in the U.K. because he`s starring as Captain Hook in "Peter Pan." He`s playing Captain Hook until January 16th and then there`s the Hoff confession, it was on his short-lived reality show talking about his money problems. Let`s look at that.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

HASSELHOFF: I`m starting over at 57 and I`m working my butt off. All the money that I made, most of it is gone because of personal things. And it`s just tough -- it`s a tough, tough, tough business. You got to have something to fall back on. Luckily I`ve got, you know, "the Hoff."

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: But he`s got the Hoff, which is something that is really only a value to a certain generation, and it`s not the young generation. The younger generation guys really know the Hoff from his public trouble, from the cheeseburger incidents, not so much from "Knight Rider" and "Baywatch." Do you think that`s had has a lot to do with why he`s having a career crisis?

WIDDECOMBE: I think so. They think he`s a joke, they see him as a cheesy star from the 90s. I don`t think we have to cry for him just yet.

HAMMER: The one thing that we`ve seen, we saw this when he was roasted on Comedy Central and he`s willing to talk about public troubles like the great cheeseburger incident of a couple years ago. And because of that I think that shows a good side of him. I`m actually thinking he should capitalize on that, Ereka and maybe have a line of cheeseburgers or something like that.

(LAUGHTER)

VETRINI: I see what you`re saying and I think that could help. But talk about jokes, even amongst jokes, he didn`t even outlast the situation on "Dancing with the Stars." "The Situation" is beating him and has a bigger fan base these days. So I don`t know where he`s going to go from there.

ANDERSON: You talk about him being a joke. He`s not a joke to the Germans, A.J. There`s always Germany, right?

HAMMER: That`s why I don`t understand where his money went.

ANDERSON: If anybody can pull himself up by his boot straps, it could be David Hasselhoff.

I do have to move now to the results of our exclusive "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" poll, and it`s about Jessica Simpson. She really has transformed her career from music pop star to fashion mogul, and she`s done it extremely successfully.

Here`s what we asked, Jessica Simpson`s reported $750 million fashion empire, so should she give up music? Take a look at these absolutely stunning results we -- 73 percent say, yes, she`s making money elsewhere. Only 27 percent say no way. Ben, do you agree with the poll that she should abandon the music career? I was.

WIDDECOMBE: I was fascinated to read these figures that she`s worth so much. I think it because she has this image as a pop star. People buying her jeans and cosmetics products want to see Jessica in the spotlight. If she is just sitting at home counting her fashion money, I`m not sure people want to aspire to be her. She has to keep singing to keep that image in front of the public.

ANDERSON: Ereka, do you agree?

VETRINI: I do think that`s somewhat the case. It`s still $20 million plus she`s making in music. That`s a lot of money. Her husband is not making any money. Why not keep the extra cash coming in?

ANDERSON: $20 million, that ain`t chump change. And her voice is really fantastic. Ben is shaking her head. I think she`s talented.

HAMMER: I almost think she doesn`t really care. A dozen years ago when her pop career is first taking off, I thought that`s all she wanted was to be, pop princess. I think she`d like to see it succeed but if she doesn`t --

VETRINI: I agree. She`s a mogul.

ANDERSON: I want to more to another big story breaking today. Who will "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" name the most provocative celebrity of the week? A.J., I want to hear about the nominees.

HAMMER: What competition. We have Sarah Palin right off the top for her reality TV hunting trip controversy. She caused such a furry that even Hollywood producer Aaron Sorkin called Sarah "deranged" and compared her to Michael Vick.

Or it could be Helen Mirren for bashing Hollywood. Perhaps we`ll name, however, Kathy Griffin for calling Bristol Palin fat.

So we asked to you text your vote to let us know your pick on the "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" Facebook wall. And I got to tell you, people couldn`t wait to weight in. Let`s put the results of the text vote -- 63 percent of our text voters chose Kathy Griffin. On our "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" Facebook wall was flooded with comments about Kathy Griffin. Here`s one, "Kathy, sorry we can`t all have plastic surgery to stay thin like you."

Everybody wants to know, the tension is palpable. Ereka, who do you think deserves the honor or dishonor of most provocative celebrity of the week?

VETRINI: for me it`s a no-brainer. Former beauty queen gone vice presidential nominee and can dissect a caribou? That`s provocative. Come on!

HAMMER: No argument here. Ben, who would your pick be among those three?

WIDDECOMBE: For me it was between Sarah Palin and Helen Mirren because animal cruelty and sexism are both real issues unlike Kathy Griffin`s mere insult. So I`m going to go with Helen Mirren. I think it`s important she tells the truth about those issues. It`s time for someone as respectable as her to put it on the table.

HAMMER: And what it`s time for on "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" is for us to name "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT`s" most provocative celebrity of the week. May have I a drum roll, please? It is in fact Sarah Palin.

Brooke, I didn`t see this going any other way. This particular week she pushes button as always. I respect the fact that, yes, there a lot of people out there, hunting is a big part of their life. But I thought she didn`t need to on her TLC show, show what they showed. I was put off by it.

ANDERSON: You were pretty horrified by it. But she was doing it for the cameras and it is depicting a big part of life for a lot of people in this country. Ereka, do you think we got it right this week?

VETRINI: I definitely think you got it right. I`m not so opposed what she`s doing on television. It`s part of Alaska and part of her life. And she`s playing to her base.

ANDERSON: She`s not apologizing for her life, not trying to be somebody else.

(CROSSTALK)

HAMMER: All right. We`re going to leave it there. Thank, guys. Ereka, Ben, we thank you both.

We must move on right now because we`re getting set to get up close and personal with Madonna. Wait until you hear her unbelievable confessions about being bullied as a kid. It`s hard to believe somebody bullied Madonna.

ANDERSON: And super aggressive paparazzi chasing down stars. That`s a form of bullying, right? You got to hear the amazing story "Entourage" star Adrian Grenier tells me. He was hounded by a teen-age paparazzo but then he became friends with the kid.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

ANDREA MINEO, HLN PRODUCER: It`s a beautiful foot.

DANNY DEVITO, ACTOR: Who said it was beautiful?

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: And we`re getting up close and personal with Danny DeVito`s troll foot. Nothing`s off limits here.

Now it`s time for the "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" news ticker, more stories from "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" making news today.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

ANDERSON: We welcome you back to this special edition of "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, Stars up close and personal." I`m Brooke Anderson with A.J. Hammer in New York. Now up close with Madonna, her shocking bullying confession.

HAMMER: Brooke, this is truly an incredible story. Madonna of course one of the strongest, most powerful women in the world, but as a kid, well, she was actually an outsider and she was bullied. Listen to what she tells Ellen DeGeneres.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

MADONNA, SINGER/SONGWRITER: I can totally relate to the idea of feeling isolated and alienated. I was incredibly lonely as a child, as a teen-ager. And have I to say I never felt like I fit in at school. I wasn`t a jock, I wasn`t an intellectual. There was no group I felt a part of. I just felt like a weirdo.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Well that, weirdo became one of the biggest stars of all time.

ANDERSON: She certainly did.

Right now I get up close and personal with "Entourage" star Adrian Grenier in a limo. Adrian took me along for an exclusive ride hours before the premiere of his first documentary about paparazzi. What I learned along the way was eye opening. Adrian spilled his secrets about the paparazzi, what he`s most passionate about and what he won`t hit the red carpet without.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

ANDERSON: Ready?

ADRIAN GRENIER, ACTOR: I`m ready. I got all my tools for a premiere.

ANDERSON: Banana?

GRENIER: A little nourishment, some water. Talking a lot. This is for the after party.

ANDERSON (voice-over): Dressed to impress. In a new suit to premiere his new movie, Adrian Grenier was ready to roll but realized he forgot one small detail, removing the tag.

GRENIER: Wait, am I supposed to take that off?

ANDERSON (on camera): Is it your suit?

GRENIER: This is a suit loaned to me by boss on a permanent basis.

ANDERSON: Hugo boss doesn`t do anything halfway.

GRENIER: Perfection.

ANDERSON (voice-over): Now that Adrian was red carpet ready, I was ready for our "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" exclusive during our revealing 45-minute limo ride to the premiere of "Teenage Paparazzo."

ANDERSON (on camera): Tonight is the night for the big event.

GRENIER: I got my ban and my shoes. What else do I need?

ANDERSON: All set.

GRENIER: Want a bite?

Red carpet walks can be brutal. I mean, an hour of just talking about yourself.

ANDERSON (voice-over): In his documentary, "Teenage Paparazzo," Adrian goes inside the mysterious world of the paparazzi, picking up the camera himself and staking out stars.

ANDERSON (on camera): You wanted to see what it was like behind the paparazzi`s cameras.

GRENIER: The most important thing for me was to get to know them as human beings, to discover the humanity behind these lurking, faceless monsters that were always hiding in the Bushes and looking to capture, steal a piece of my soul. And I knew that that couldn`t be true.

ANDERSON: A lot of people see you as a film star, a TV star from "Entourage," but is this where your passion lies?

GRENIER: I try to bring passion into everything I do. I`m a communicator. To me it`s just different ways to tell stories and communicate ideas, whether it be producing or directing or acting.

ANDERSON (voice-over): In HBO`s "Entourage ", Adrian`s character Vinnie Chase is now struggling with drugs. He spirals out of control and he could potentially head to jail. Sound familiar Lindsay, Paris?

ANDERSON (on camera): This season seems like it was ripped from the headlines.

GRENIER: Actually it`s surprising how accurate the show is. A lot of things that happen in real life we can`t put in the show because it just wouldn`t be believable.

ANDERSON: Is the next season really the last season?

GRENIER: The word on the street is that season eight will be the last, I`ve heard. However, the word on the street is also that there`s going to be a movie.

ANDERSON: How do you keep yourself out of the negative headline?

GRENIER: I was lucky to have come into this experience later in life and I had already done my rebellion.

ANDERSON (voice-over): As I rode with Adrian in this "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" exclusive, I had to wonder how he dealt with answering all those questions he`s gets from reporters on the red carpet.

GRENIER: There becomes like this psychic split at some point somewhere in the middle after you`ve already answered the same questions about 14 times where suddenly you leave your body, you depart earth, and suddenly you`re looking at yourself talking. Who -- who do you think you are and why does anybody care about you? What? It`s weird.

ANDERSON: Weird, maybe. But as Adrian knows it`s all part of the job of being a star and facing the paparazzi.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

HAMMER: Moving on now to Kelly Osbourne`s cancer fear. Kelly totally broke down on live TV after revealing her emotional fears about getting cancer. Kelly`s mom Sharon was diagnosed with cancer in 2002. Sharon is cancer free now, but Kelly bravely admits she gave up her career for a while to take care of her mom.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

KELLY OSBOURNE, DAUGHTER OF OZZY OSBOURNE: I got a phone call in New York, when I was about to start write my first album. They said you`ve got to come home, Sharon has terminal cancer. She saved my dad`s life and she almost died, and my mom`s a hero.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: Since Sharon`s cancer diagnosis, Kelly says she struggles with anxiety over getting the disease. She says she`s absolutely convinced she`s going to get cancer, and she goes to the doctor every week to get vitamins.

ANDERSON: More up close and personal confessions coming your way, like Eminem. I had the very rare opportunity to chat one-on-one with Eminem, and he really opened up to me about his addictions and his dramatic brush with death.

HAMMER: Also Portia`s pain over anorexia. Portia De Rossi`s emotional weight confessions to her wife Ellen DeGeneres right on Ellen`s show.

ANDERSON: You think everyone has a price for their secrets? Not Vanessa Williams. We are going to reveal what she says she will never reveal, not even for half a million dollars.

HAMMER: Right now star TMI -- Cynthia Nixon loves her girlfriend because she`s like a short man with boobs. Those are her words, not mine. The "Sex in the City" star says this about her partner Christine in "The Advocate" magazine, "A lot of what I love about her is her butchness. My daughter said one time that if you really had to break this down, it looks like she would be butch and I would be fem, but really once you get to know us, it`s really the opposite."

You`re watching a special edition of "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, Up close and personal" on HLN.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HAMMER: Eminem`s shocking brush with death. That`s Eminem`s hit single "Not Afraid." He reveals his dramatic near death experience and his long and painful road to recovery.

Welcome back to the special edition of "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, Up close and personal." I`m A.J. Hammer in New York with Brooke Anderson. And now Eminem`s shocking brush with death.

ANDERSON: You know, A.J., Eminem doesn`t do a whole lot of interviews. But I got the chance to go one-on-one with him and he opened up about past struggles, including the time he overdosed and drugs and almost died. Watch.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

ANDERSON: You`ve been through a very dark time in your life. You took a five-year hiatus. How did you pull yourself out of that dark time?

EMINEM, RAPPER: Well, it was definitely -- it was a process. It took me a while to actually admit, you know, that I had a problem. I mean, you know, in the hip hop world that I live in, I think that it can be mistaken for weakness. The last thing you want to do in hip hop is admit that you were weak. But if I didn`t admit I was weak with this certain thing, I was going to die.

ANDERSON: How close did you come?

EMINEM: I certainly probably a couple hours away from death. Not to make this too tense of a moment but, yes, I overdosed and almost died.

ANDERSON: How did you mentally turn it around? Because, like you said, you are a strong, tough, macho guy. How did you do it?

EMINEM: Well, I had to admit that I had a problem. I had to -- I think I had to be ready for myself. Like I had to be ready -- I don`t want to make it cliche but you have to do it for yourself.

I went through a really rough problem after I came home from rehab. And I lost my best friend and kind of it was kind of just like screw it, this is like, you know, and from there I really went downhill. And that`s when I overdosed, got out of the hospital, relapsed a short time after that, basically scared the (bleep) out of myself and went to some people and was like, yo, I got a problem, I can`t beat this on my own. The whole time I was thinking I could, but I couldn`t.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

HAMMER: Here`s what`s coming up at the bottom of the hour on "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT." Up close and personal star plastic surgery confessions. Bye-bye, Botox. Are stars saying no to the knife for good? Jessica Simpson`s yuck mouth. It`s Jessica`s terrible habit.

Also this --

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

BARBARA WALTERS, CO-HOST, "THE VIEW": You had said cheating is when you lie and are deceitful. It`s not that you when you have sex outside of the marriage. Did you and Sid have sex outside of the marriage?

(END VIDEO CLIP)

HAMMER: It`s Monique`s open marriage shocker. This is a special edition of "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, Up close and Personal" and HLN, news and views.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

HAMMER: Welcome back to a special edition of "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, Up close and personal." It is 30 minutes past the hour. I`m A.J. Hammer

ANDERSON: And I`m Brooke Anderson. We`re coming to you from New York City with shocking star plastic surgery confessions.

HAMMER: There are a remarkable number of stars who are peeling back the layers and going back to the public to reveal that not only did they have work done, but that the work turned into a disaster. I`m talking from bad Botox to bad lips, stars are admitting that their attempt to reshape their faces turned into a fiasco.

"SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" reveals the plastic surgery secrets that have now gone oh so public.

(BEGIN VIDEOTAPE)

HAMMER: "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" is sad to report another Hollywood relationship may be about to go kaput, the long-time love affair between Hollywood and plastic surgery. "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" can tell you a shocking number of stars are going public with extremely personal tales of how plastic surgery has done them wrong, and now they are through with it forever.

And 47-year-old actress and reality show star Lisa Rinna, who is famous for her artificially inflated lips discussed the shocking revelation she just made on people.com. Lisa revealed that this summer she had her famously prominently puckers surgically we reduced.

RINNA: I had no idea could you reduce it, so I was like, yes, let`s do it!

HAMMER: "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" can tell you that for years Lisa`s lips have been a puckered up punch line on celebrity websites. Even this online cosmetic forum discusses how to avoid Lisa Rinna`s lips.

DAWN YANEK, EDITOR-AT-LARGE, "LIFE & STYLE WEEKLY": When you have a star like Lisa Rinna who is talented and beautiful and wonderful but who is known for one very big thing, which is of course, her lips, people are going to speculate about whether or not she had work done.

HAMMER: Lisa finally admitted last year she had a silicone injection back in 1986.

RINNA: For 24 years I`ve had this lip and I really didn`t pay attention. Everybody always agrees guessed it. I never said it was true. When I came out to say, it just opened the flood gates.

HAMMER: Now after years of getting slammed for not admitting her lip augmentation and months of getting slammed for admitting her lip augmentation, Rinna tells "Today" she decided this August to have her lips reduced and end the chatter once and for all.

RINNA: And I do it for me because I no longer wanted my lips to be what defines me.

HAMMER: Lisa Rinna is not the only celebrity down on plastic surgery. And 54 year old Dana Delaney reveals that a botched Botox procedure seven years ago permanently damaged her face. She now says she`s sworn off plastic surgery for good, saying, quote, "We are getting to the point that nobody says "That`s a beautiful woman." Instead they say "She`s had good work."

And you know the Hollywood-plastic surgery relationship is in trouble when even Heidi Montag can`t make it work. Late last year Montag had ten plastic surgery procedures in one day, including a massive breast augmentation that she documented for People.com.

MONTAG: Bigger is better.

HAMMER: Maybe not. Montag now says she regrets her breast augmentation, which is why "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" is asking today, has the long love affair Hollywood has had with plastic surgery gone the way of Heidi Montag`s original nose?

YANEK: I don`t think the plastic surgeons in Hollywood should be worried. The thing is when we have aging celebrities we are going to have plastic surgery.

HAMMER: So with stars like Lisa Rinna, Dana Delaney, and Heidi Montag now doing an about-face about work on their face and other body parts, we`ll see if this marks a new era in the long relationship between Hollywood and plastic surgery.

RINNA: I no longer wanted my lip to be what defines me.

HAMMER: Or if it`s all just lip service.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

ANDERSON: Lisa Rinna isn`t the only one to take a stand against plastic surgery. Angelina Jolie also reveals she hasn`t had any work done and doesn`t plan on ever doing it.

That brings us to our "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" flashpoint, is Hollywood`s love affair with plastic surgery ending? Right now in New York here with me is Dr. Sharon Giese. She`s a New York plastic surgeon. And in Hollywood is Ramani Durvasula who is a professor of psychology at Cal State L.A. and the psychologist on the Bravo series "Intervention."

OK, ladies, it seems to me there`s more and more backlash against plastic surgery in Hollywood. Heidi Montag who is famous for all the work that she got done in one day practically now says it was the biggest mistake of her life. Dr. Giese, is it possible Hollywood`s love affair with plastic surgery is ending?

DR. SHARON GIESE, NEW YORK PLASTIC SURGEON: I don`t think that we`re ready for a divorce in Hollywood yet, but I think things have started to change somewhat. People are deathly afraid of looking fake. They can see stars who are doing too much. It`s gotten a little too extreme. Once you`ve done too much --

ANDERSON: There`s no going back, right?

GIESE: Some things are reversible. Like Lisa Rinna`s lips, she can reverse that. It`s great.

ANDERSON: Some of it it`s once you go a certain extreme, it`s hard to turn back.

GIESE: In Hollywood unfortunately they could lose their career.

ANDERSON: It`s not just extreme cases that have caught big time attention. Angelina Jolie says she has never had plastic surgery and she doesn`t plan on it. She tells "The Daily Mail" this -- "If it makes somebody happy, then that`s up to them. I`m not in somebody else`s skin to know what makes them feel better about themselves. But I don`t plan to do it myself."

Ramani, is it possible Hollywood`s love affair with plastic surgery is ending?

RAMANI DURVASULA, PSYCHOLOGIST: Absolutely not. Plastic surgery becomes a central part of creating this illusion artificial beauty. I think that`s a love aware is well in place and it`s not going to end.

(CROSSTALK)

ANDERSON: Take somebody as beautiful as Angelina Jolie. You do believe her when. But Dr. Giese, do you think it`s possible 20, 30 years from now, she may change her mind?

GIESE: Some people choose to age gracefully. However, she may wake up and look in the mirror and say, hmm, I miss those big lips that I have 20 years ago. I mean, everybody`s lips get a little bit smaller, and --

ANDERSON: I`m hoping she makes wrings in vogue 20 or 30 years from now.

(LAUGHTER)

GIESE: I don`t know. Who knows?

ANDERSON: One person who has spoken out is Julia Roberts. She`s a stunning 42-year-ol. She has said no plastic surgery for her, she tells "Elle" magazine "I want my kid to know when I`m happy and when I`m confounded."

Ramani, it`s really starting to sound like there`s a revolution against plastic surgery. We haven`t heard a lot of this before now so do you believe them?

DURVASULA: I only believe them to a point. I think folks like Julia Roberts and Angelina Jolie who are so iconic are always going to work in this industry. But I think the modal person trying to get out there, it`s hard. They are supposed to look a certain way for the bulk of their careers.

And how re these woman going to feel when in 20 years they wake up and life is marching across their face. The procedures are getting better and better all the time, so I think there is a way to be more secretive about how you get your work done, and you can grow old gracefully and subtly as long as the procedures are silently happening.

GIESE: These are excellent points. And when you think about the 40- year-old women in Hollywood today, they`re fabulous. Not all of them say they haven`t had anything done.

(CROSSTALK)

ANDERSON: I understand a lot of times they say think don`t have any time. Thank you both, ladies.

HAMMER: There`s one thing the gorgeous Vanessa Williams won`t let anyone get up close and personal about, her love life. Vanessa says she will never expose about her past marriages. She told "Ebony" magazine because they wanted her to dirt on her ex-husband Rick Fox. Vanessa says she refuses to throw the father of her children under the bus.

ANDERSON: And Portia de Rossi tells Ellen DeGeneres rest about her pain right on her show.

HAMMER: Monique`s incredible revelation about what she do if her husband cheats on her.

ANDERSON: Danny DeVito has famous feet. And he loves to show them off.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

MINEO: I`m not going to take a picture and post it.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

ANDERSON: Did Danny put his troll foot on Anderson Cooper`s desk? You`ve got to see this.

And right now star TMI. Jessica Simpson`s growth habit -- Jess has revealed a very shocking secret. She doesn`t believe in brushing her teeth every day. She told Ellen DeGeneres she doesn`t like to brush because it makes her teeth too slippery. She says she`s gives her teeth a once over with a shirt to clean them. She says she does floss and use mouthwash every day.

You`re watching a special edition of "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" on HLN.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HAMMER: Welcome back to this special edition of "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT, Stars up close and personal." I`m A.J. Hammer in New York with Brooke Anderson. And right now we are going way up close and inside Oscar winner Monique`s bedroom.

(LAUGHTER)

ANDERSON: The actress and talk show host revealed surprising details about her open marriage. Yes. On the Barbara Walters Oscar special, Monique revealed she`s totally OK if her husband cheats.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

WALTERS: You have said cheating is when you lie and are deceitful, not when you have sex outside of the marriage.

MONIQUE, ACTRESS: Yes.

WALTERS: Do you and Sid have sex outside of the marriage?

MONIQUE: Do we have sex outside of the marriage? Let me say this. I have not had sex outside of my marriage with Sidney. Could I have sex outside of my marriage can with Sidney? Yes. Could Sid have sex outside of his marriage with me? Yes. That`s not a deal breaker. That`s not something we would say oh, my god, because you are attracted to another personal and because you happen to have sex, let`s end of marriage.

WALTERS: But what if it`s not once?

MONIQUE: What if it`s 20 times?

WALTERS: What if?

MONIQUE: So what?

WALTERS: You wouldn`t care?

MONIQUE: That`s not something that would make us say pack your things in the marriage because we`ve been best friends for -- is it over 25 years? And we truly know who we are.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

ANDERSON: Well, something must be working for Monique and her husband, Sidney, best friends for over 25 years, and they`ve been happily married for four.

HAMMER: Different strokes.

Moving now to Portia`s incredible personal pain. That is the only way to describe Portia de Rossi`s jaw dropping revelations to her wife on her wife`s TV show. Portia`s wife of course is Ellen DeGeneres. And wait until you hear Portia`s incredible revelations to Ellen where she`s telling all in such remarkable, emotional, and painful detail about her battles with eating disorders that had her down to 82 pounds.

Portia`s reveals this to Ellen with such raw and real emotion, it is something so very up close and personal, we won`t soon forget it.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

DE ROSSI: I don`t think anyone can really understand what it`s like to suffer from an eating disorder unless they`ve actually gone through it themselves.

HAMMER: Speaking out about her long battle with eating disorders, actress Portia de Rossi definitely chose friendly territory, namely her wife`s talk show.

ELLEN DEGENERES, DAYTIME TV TALK SHOW HOST: I have to say of course, you know, I`m biased because I love you and I think you`re brilliant and amazing.

HAMMER: Portia shares her shocking story with Ellen, who she`s been with for six years. Now the author of a new book "Unbearable Lightness," Portia explains why she`s now talking about a weight obsession that at one point whittled her down to almost 80 pounds.

DE ROSSI: I wanted to go back to that dark, horrible time and explain why I thought I was doing the right thing, why I thought I was doing the healthy thing and making good choices for my life.

HAMMER: She reveals how her relationship with Ellen helped to make her the healthy person she is today.

DE ROSSI: I don`t think that I`m perfect at all.

DEGENERES: I do.

DE ROSSI: Aw, come on.

(APPLAUSE)

DE ROSSI: The toothpaste I use is really strong.

HAMMER: Portia`s struggle intensified in 1998 when she was cast in her breakout roll on "Ally McBeal." This was years before she met Ellen DeGeneres and at the time no one knew she was gay.

SUZANNE ZUCKERMAN, "PEOPLE" MAGAZINE: She felt the need to transform herself into this image of a person she thought everyone wanted her to be, that included thin, straight, and sexy. She refers to swallowing up to 20 laxatives a day and goes into shocking specifics about binging and purging.

HAMMER: Portia writes the night after her first days on "Ally McBeal," she had a huge celebratory dinner. She writes "Of course I had to throw up after but that was OK. I department have to work for the next two days so hi too to get rid of the dots before my eyes that were caused by my blood vessels bursting."

ZUCKERMAN: At one point she lowered her calorie intake to 300 a day and it lowered her to 82 pounds.

DEGENERES: I was shocked and I had no idea how much she hated herself.

HAMMER: Portia explains at the time people close to her expressed concern but she didn`t listen.

DE ROSSI: You`re too thin to me was more of a compliment than just you`re thin. You`re too thin? Who can be too thin?

HAMMER: Pleas from her family finally led Portia to get help in 2001. By the time she got together in 2004, Portia was a much healthier 168 pounds. She tells Ellen that relationship has changed her life.

DE ROSSI: She`s taught me that who I am is perfectly good enough. And that I don`t have to pretend to be anything other than who I am.

ZUCKERMAN: Ellen recognized the person within and that really enabled Portia to further accept herself.

HAMMER: Halle has said motherhood comes naturally to her and has given her life a new perspective. So we just had to ask Halle her thoughts on being a mom again. And you have to hear her very candid and quite frankly very funny response.

HALLE BERRY, ACTRESS: Every mom in the world will tell you it`s life changing, it`s profound, it`s given me a greater purpose. I`m like every other mom in the world I think. She`s the love of my life.

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Could there be another within on the way? Would you like another one?

BERRY: If god says so. I think my eggs are on like walking sticks, so probably not.

(LAUGHTER)

HAMMER: Eggs on walking sticks? I don`t know about that.

ANDERSON: Nothing about her looks like it`s on walking sticks.

(COMMERCIAL BREAK)

HAMMER: Danny DeVito tweets about his feet. The star of "Taxi" and "It`s always Sunny in Philadelphia" loves for everyone to get up close and personal with his self-proclaimed "troll feet."

ANDERSON: This is something that Danny has been doing for a while. He takes picture of his feet in various places from the interesting to the downright gross and posts them on Twitter.

So when Danny walked into the "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" newsroom with our "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT" producer Andrea Mineo, we all wanted to see his famous feet.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

DEVITO: This is CNN.

MINEO: Come on, troll foot. Walk with me. When did you drop your dignity and reveal you`d be OK to show your troll foot?

DEVITO: It takes nine months to have a baby. That is not my baby! "It`s always Sunny in Philadelphia" goes on FX at like 10:00 on Thursday nights. We did a live show and took it on the road. We have a great fan base weeks love our fans, they love us.

I`m the troll guy. Who else would be the troll? I like that.

MINEO: Do you sing?

DEVITO: We sing.

MINEO: What do you sing?

DEVITO: Well, the idea is -- do you want to know what I sing?

MINEO: I do. Do you have a good voice?

DEVITO: I sing a song called "You got to pay the troll toll."

We raised in the neighborhood of $300,000.

MINEO: Are you a fan of Anderson Cooper?

DEVITO: I`m a big fan.

MINEO: Do you want to take a walk to the set?

DEVITO: This is Anderson Cooper`s office? I thought he`d have a bigger office.

MINEO: It`s a beautiful foot.

DEVITO: Who said it was beautiful? It`s a troll foot, for crying out loud. I`m the troll guy. What do you expect, it to be as pretty as your feet?

MINEO: Like CNN Money, it`s like a library.

COOPER: We plan to show your feet on TV. Do you have any problem with that?

Ladies and gentlemen, Danny DeVito.

DEVITO: Thank you so much. Thanks a lot. What show would that be? "It`s always Sunny in Philadelphia." Guess who in this room has never seen the show?

MINEO: He outed me in front of everyone.

DEVITO: If you can`t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.

You can touch it if you want. Clean as a whistle.

MINEO: Thanks for the offer but --

DEVITO: You could eat off that foot. I`m the troll guy.

(END VIDEOTAPE)

HAMMER: That is it for this special edition of "SHOWBIZ TONIGHT Stars up close and personal." I`m A.J. Hammer.
