Here's the Scoop....
Whitney Houston is in talks to make her big screen comeback in a reboot of 1976 musical movie "Sparkle."
The "I Will Always Love You" hitmaker has not starred in a film since her 1996 hit "The Preacher's Wife" alongside Denzel Washington, but now she's in negotiations to return to acting after 15 years.
"Sparkle" focuses on three Harlem-based sisters who form a musical group in the 1960s and Jordin Sparks is already on board to make her film debut.
Despite the success of her first big screen outing, "The Bodyguard" in 1993, whitney only made three movies before her personal problems and addictions hampered both her screen and singing careers.
Now, let's get to the rest of the nooz...

Fan hid in Pamela Anderson's home for days...
Pamela Anderson was forced to call cops when a crazed fan broke into her house and hid in a guest room for days.
The "Baywatch" beauty became convinced she was going insane when she noticed bread missing from her kitchen and items of clothing vanished from her closet.
But after several days she discovered a female intruder hiding in her home, and the woman shocked the actress by slashing her wrists when police arrived to arrest her.
Pam says, "One (fan) snuck into my house, sliced their wrists and... ate all my bread. It's terrible but I'm serious! When the police took her, she was even wearing one of my 'Baywatch' bathing suits. It was very scary, actually.
"I was in my house with my children, alone, and this woman had gotten in and was there for a few days!... I kept noticing my bread going missing and that my jean jacket disappeared. But I was like: 'I'm going crazy because I have two babies, I'm forgetting everything.'
"But this woman had been staying in the guest room for days. When the police came, she slit her wrists!... She didn't die. She just got deported."
Bam Margera detained by cops after street brawl...
"Jackass" star Bam Margera was detained by police in New York on Sunday after a fight with a taxi driver.
Cops tracked the stuntman down as he walked away from the altercation after the driver flagged down a passing patrol car.
But Bam insisted the cabbie started the fight by calling a female companion a "slut" and then grabbed her hair after she spat at him outside biker bar the Hogs & Heifers Saloon.
The TV and film star then reportedly reached into the cab through a window and started attacking the driver.
The "Jackass" star reveals that the cops "couldn't figure out who to arrest," so both parties were allowed to walk away.
