Shannon Elizabeth is harboring a killer! Well, not exactly. But her dog did kill a poor defenseless puppy.
Try to follow this one. Derek Hough's mom blogged that one of Shannon's four dogs killed her daughter Katherine's maltese teacup puppy. Shannon tried to make amends by giving Derek's sis a rescue "replacement" pup.
Turns out this is a big no-no in the animal activist world -- which Shannon should know, since she founded her own dog rescue org.
Now here's the kicker. Katherine Hough has 86'd the pup and given it to her "DWTS" sis Julianne. But Julianne can't keep the dog so she's looking for a new home on her own blog.
As they say ... screw the pooch.

"The Nature Boy" Ric Flair was so pissed off in L.A. last night -- that he whipped out his guns, verbally bashed a celebrity and most shockingly -- busted out an impromptu song and dance?!

The guy who recently got a black eye from his daughter and her BF -- he says everything is great now -- is furious that he got dissed by "Dancing with the Stars," and now he's taking out his anger on some poor Sapp ... named Warren.

She turned 41 last night, but Toni Braxton cracked "parts of her turned 21."

Good joke, wonder where she heard that one.

Apparently an orange jumpsuit and sequins just don't match. Helio Castroneves latest indictment may cause him to lose his chance to dance.
TMZ sources close to "Dancing with the Stars" have told us that Helio was tapped for a visit to the "DWTS" ballroom to perform later in the season, but with his latest legal struggles that's probably not going to happen.
Many crew members were shocked with the latest accusations and have attempted to contact Helio to give their support.
As for the performance -- its still tentatively scheduled, but the show may want to get John O'Hurley on speed dial just in case.

He was trying to give his stepdaughter a compliment, but all Bruce Jenner did was confirm everyone's assumption that Kim Kardashian is a spoiled rich girl who "never competed for anything in her life."

Adding that his BFF was the casting director for "DWTS" didn't help her out much either.

She's got the perfect stripper name, but Karina Smirnoff is no exotic dancer.

Mario Lopez's ex got our photog all worked up when she got out of her car in front of the Body Shop strip club -- but she wasn't there for the g-strings.

Being eliminated before an 82-year-old hip-shaking (and breaking) dinosaur is embarrassing -- so no wonder Jeff Ross is already playing dumb about ever appearing on "Dancing with the Stars" in the first place.

Our photog was brave enough to ask the ginormous Warren Sapp about being the hissy fit throwing diva on the "Dancing with the Stars" set -- his reaction was priceless.

When we're wrong, we admit it -- but the stupid questions we threw at John O'Hurley in front of the Ivy yesterday were downright disastrous and he really let us know it.
