Perez Hilton

Might as well.

Shepard Smith, one of the original anchors of the Fox News Channel, as just signed a new multi-year deal that will keep him with the network a bit longer.

His new deal locks him in as the channel's lead news anchor as well as an anchor for FOX Report and Studio B. To give you an idea of how lucrative a deal this is, 3 years ago when he signed a contract, he got $7 million-8 million a year. Obviously, that figure is bound to go up!

Not too shabby for a day's work!

Time for some girl chat! Jennifer Love Hewitt's going to tell us all about her new boyfriend! Woooo!

Recently, J Love has been seen spending a lot of time with Alex Beh, an indie film actor. She admitted to sources that the met at a "dinner party" through mutual friends. Since then, they've learned to really like each other. Jennifer calls Alex "hilarious" and loves to laugh with him.

On the other end, Alex is very happy to have found a companion in J Love and he knows exactly how he is going to treat her. How? Oh, he just read a little book on the topic called The Day I Shot Cupid: Hello, My Name Is Jennifer Love Hewitt and I'm a Love-aholic.

Boy came into this prepared! He told sources about the book, saying:

"It's very informative. I learned all I needed to know. When I first met her, I really was able to just map out all the things to do and not to do."

Ah! Adorable and smart. Now, if anything goes wrong between them, he can just blame the book! Ha!

Nah, they actually look cute together. Let's hop this sticks for her.

And it's keeping the tourists away!

The holiday season is vastly approaching and that's a big time of year for Manhattan. People come from around the world to see the tree at Rockefeller Center and skate in Central Park.

However, this year might not bring so many happy travelers as the threat of bed bugs has caused many to reconsider their plans. Many folks are afraid of the widespread epidemic throughout the city and have canceled hotel reservations and concert tickets just to avoid being bitten.

Sources have confirmed that the city's tourism agency, NYC & Company, has only had "nominal" cancellations thus far, but the agency is still taking the situation "very seriously."

Mayor Bloomberg added: "Hopefully, these things come and go, and this will go quickly."

You better hope so!

When Matt Damon discovered that studio execs had announced the continuation of The Bourne Legacy without him, it came as a complete surprise.

He had to hear about it on the web like everyone else!

Damon said:

"I found out they're making another when somebody saw it on the internet. Nobody bothered to call me. I'm not in it, but even so, they'll work Bourne into the title, I guess. Universal just wants to call everything the Bourne something. So I guess they are trying to make another franchise and as they say, 'It isn't over until it's over'."

Lame. Would U want to see Bourne anything without Mr Damon?!

Words like "WOW" don't even properly describe how shocking this is!

In Beijing, a 10 year old boy fell 20 stories from an apartment window, landed on a parked car…and SURVIVED!

A doctor at the People's Hospital of Guizhou in southern China has said that the boy suffered skull fractures, as well as bleeding on the brain.

The boy is currently under close observation.

Amazing that he survived!

Our thoughts are with the boy and his family.

We'll be crossing our fingers and all other crossable body parts that he is able to make a recovery!
