      *Nick Cannon's ex-fiancé Selita Ebanks rang in the New Year by smooching on 6-foot-3 New York Giants defensive end Osi Umenyiora, reports the New York Daily News.

       *Lest anyone believe that Flavor Flav is really looking for a girlfriend on his various seasons of VH1's "Flavor of Love," we give you Deelishis. The winner of season three told King magazine that he never called her once the show ended, and the entire experience was more about self-promotion for the rapper, not finding a meaningful relationship. Flav is currently shooting a third season of "Flavor of Love," but the New York Post is quoting a source who claims: "This is the last show, period. This is it for him."       

       *"Survivor" favorites James Clement and Cirie Fields return to the CBS reality show in its new 16th incarnation "Survivor: Micronesia – Fans vs. Favorites," premiering Feb. 7. “None of us felt like a full-on All-Stars was the right choice, because we did it once and since then so many other shows have done it,” host Jeff Probst tells Entertainment Weekly. “It felt like we needed a twist.” Clement, a 30-year-old ditch digger from Louisiana, was the tenth person eliminated during last season's "Survivor: China." Fields, 37 from Walterboro, SC, came in fourth during "Survivor: Panama - Exile Island" in 2006.       

       *World Entertainment News Network has apologized to film star Will Smith for misrepresenting his quotes about Adolf Hitler in a Scottish newspaper.

WENN says it takes "full responsibility for the dissemination" of the story and offers Will "a sincere apology" and deeply regrets "the personal stress" caused, reports TMZ.com.
