Ann Curry Firing to Cost The Today Show Millions
If/when Ann Curry gets fired from Today, it will cost NBC a pretty penny.
Actually, many pretty pennies. More pretty pennies than a celebrity gossip website knows how to count.
Network insiders tell TMZ that Curry is definitely a goner next week, and that the ousting will cost NBC close to $30 million because the co-host signed a long-term contract in 2011 that guarantees her $10 million/year.
That number ought to soften the blow, huh?
Curry is also rumored to become a foreign correspondent for NBC News, a capacity that will involve… who cares?!? $30 million?!? YEESH!

Lowe just finished a two-day stint guest hosting with Kelly Ripa and an ABC source says the top network brass “loved the chemistry between them.”

More >Ryan Park: The Next Bachelor?
Ashley Hebert rejected Ryan Park not once, but twice this season. Still, she says The Bachelorette castoff is one of her top choices to be The Bachelor.
Would he consider a turn in the spotlight as the next Bachelor? “Maybe!” he said on a conference call with reporters, saying it would be an honor.
While he was clearly stoked about the idea – almost as much as he is about tankless water heaters – he did say it’s no easy task to be in command.
“Being the Bachelorette is hard!” Park said. “It’s unfortunate [Ashley] is being attacked for her insecurities, and how [Bentley Williams] preyed on

Will Blake Lively Really Sue Over Photo Scandal?
Two weeks ago, a Blake Lively nude photo scandal hit the web, as hackers released an array of nude shots allegedly of the Gossip Girl actress.
Lively’s rep, while denying the photos are of the star, threatened legal action against websites that published them. But can she even do that?

Whether she will is a different matter entirely.
Lively’s reps were quick to cry foul, claiming the pictures were not her, and publicly threatening legal action
