The third season of Real Housewives of Atlanta is sure to be more dramatic than ever–first with the news of Kim’s newest love interest, and now NeNe’s son! Bryson Bryant, the eldest son of NeNe Leakes was arrested March 7 on a marijuana possession charge, and placed in an Atlanta area jail. Bryant appeared in the first season of the hit Bravo show, and was seen looking at colleges with NeNe. The eccentric housewife released a statement about her son’s arrest, and called the situation a “family issue.” “Like any parent, I am disappointed with the actions and arrest of my son, Bryson. Certainly, my husband and I will deal with this family issue in a private manner.” “My son is not the first young adult to experiment with marijuana, and he certainly won’t be the last. Still, as parents, this is a chance for us to have an open dialogue with him about the dangers of any substance abuse,” Leakes continued. “I realize as a parent that my job is never done. And as I’ve tweeted, tough love was in order. Still, I ask that you respect our privacy during this trying time.” NeNe also took to her Twitter page to speak out about the incident: “Morning! I know my parenting job is NEVER DONE but TOUGH LOVE is ordered by the JUDGE! The judge [in] this case is ME. My head is up & held high this morning because I KNOW the parent that i’am! U hate 4 yo kids 2 make mistakes! TOUGH LOVE this morning.” Leakes is expected to appear on Bravo’s Watch What Happens live on Thursday night–we expect she’ll have speak her mind there too!

  The always outspoken Roseanne took to her blog to express her feelings about the tragic suicide of Marie Osmond’s son, Michael Bryan. Here’s what she had to say: “marie osmonds poor gay son killed himself because he had been told how wrong and how sick he was every day of his life by his church and the people in it. Calling that “depression” is a lie! Yet the Osmonds still talk lovingly about their church, saying nothing about its extremely anti-gay Crusade. Marie also has a gay daughter! Hey, I want her and all the gay kids in the world to know that they are just fine being gay and that they deserve love and respect instead of insults and rebuke! I have gay people in my family and my circle of friends and I am kicking bigot ass and taking names! That is how its done in my religion—(I have my own religion that I made up for myself and it is a great religion that actually works and respects facts and not fantasy!) Gerald Lund one of the ex church apostles has three gay kids himself. Yet, even though the people they say they love the most in all of their public displays and speeches (THEIR KIDS AND FAMILY!!) are gay,– their own children,for crying out loud- these people cannot find the christian decency and compassion within themselves to stop their hypocritical gay bashing!! How sickening. I know so many mormon kids who were gay and committed suicide, and I just cannot and will not stay quiet in order to not offend bigots anymore. It is all so terribly depressing. Marie please don’t talk about how your faith in your church has helped you get through this one! Please get some integrity and tell that church of yours that you will leave it and stop giving it ten percent of your money if they don’t stop trying to destroy your kids’ and all gay people’s civil rights and dreams and hopes!! G-d is trying to use you for something good and this is your opportunity! Your church is wrong and on the wrong wrong wrong side of things! Get as vocal about that as you are about your diet. G-d bless you too, Marie. Take a hard look at the facts now as you use this very sad time for introspection, healing growth and prayer, and become a strong symbol for loving mothers who make no apologies for hatred against their own kids!” yes i know that people get mad at me for the things i say here that they think are insensitive and unkind. I say what I think needs to be said, though, and I always will, even if nobody listens. I really could care less. My opinion is my own and is well thought out. I decided a long time ago that I would not cower and stay silent when I feel things are wrong, whether it wins me fans money or praise or the opposite of those things. I am not a wimp, I am no democrat!” I’m speechless!

  A man named Dannez Hunter is suing Quentin Tarantino for allegedly stealing his idea for Kill Bill. Hannez claims that back in 1999 he submitted a treatment to Miramax about a character named Ren who witnesses her mother’s murder, specifically the knife through her abdomen, etc. He also claims that he applied for a job at Miramax but “was never given a return phone call, as numerous similar situated less qualified Jewish and White people were bestowed job after job after job.” He wants over a million dollars, saying he was denied royalties in the Kill Bill series. Wasn’t Kill Bill based on ideas from a Japanese film? Good luck with this lawsuit, pal!

  Tom Hanks is one of few actors to receive the honor of getting a Time Magazine cover this week. In his interview, he talks about his upcoming projects, including the HBO World War II miniseries, The Pacific and a TV project about the JFK Assassination, which he claims is one of “the most controversial things that has ever been on TV.” Wow!! We are definitely intrigued. Here are some highlights from the interview: On growing up around the military: “Growing up I always knew Dad was in the Pacific somewhere fixing things. He had nothing nice to say about the Navy. He hated the Navy. He hated everybody in the Navy. He had no glory stories about it. My idea of history was just a course you had to take. Strange to think I’ve become the World War II guy. We all lived in naval housing and everybody who was like a primary care giver to me talked about The War. But when it came to understanding the history, I nodded off.” On the correlations between WWII and today: “From the outset we wanted to make people wonder how our troops can reenter society in the first place. How could they just pick up their lives and get on with the rest of us. Back in World War II we viewed the Japanese as ‘yellow slant-eyed dogs’ that believed in different Gods. They were out to kill us because our way of living was different. Does that soud familiar by any chance to what’s going on today? At least the Pacific War Soldiers coming back form WWII decompressed on ships for weeks. And then once the troops arrived portside it was often a long train ride home to Peoria. Today these guys in Afghanistan fight in bloody hell and then are flown back in 18 hours. How can they cope with that? How can they suddenly go from Tora Bora to Peyton Place?” On his JFK Assassination Project: “We’re going to do the American public a service. A lot of conspiracy types are going to be upset. If we do it right it’ll perhaps be one of the most controversial things that has ever been on TV.”

If you can’t laugh at yourself, nobody can…right? In this new Funny or Die video, reality star Heidi Montag spoofs her recent plastic surgery jobs (all ten of them!) and gets a little help from Oscar-winning director, Ron Howard. The video, set up like an infomercial, urges Congress to enact financial reform–and pokes fun at celebs who may not be able to afford their own nip/tuck action. Of course even Heidi’s fame-lovin’ hubby Spencer Pratt makes a cameo for the vid. Watch Heidi’s plea here:
