Here's the Scoop...

Okay, who else is finding their days all mixed up this week? I sure do love an extra day off, but it just means that I'm fitting a day's worth of work into 4... so it makes for longer days.

I'm not sure if it really qualifies as time off :)

Let's get to the nooz...

Be Well,

Archie Panjabi Addresses Final Scene With Julianna Marguiles...
Archie Panjabi broke her silence on her final The Good Wife scene with Julianna Marguiles in an interview Tuesday.

The 42-year-old British actress was speaking to Us Weekly when the magazine asked if she and her 48-year-old co-star filmed the season six finale together or separately, as rumored.

"You know, I can't answer that," Panjabi responded. "It's not fair for me to answer those decisions. As much as I want to. But those decisions are made by the producers. I'm not privy to those decisions."

Panjabi and Marguiles portrayed Kalinda Sharma and Alicia Florrick on the CBS series for six seasons, but haven't shared scenes since season three. TVLine reported their final "encounter" was actually achieved by splicing together two scenes the actresses filmed separately.

Speculation about the finale comes amid lingering rumors of a feud between Panjabi and Marguiles. The former will not return for season seven, and admitted she felt "guilty" about disappointing Kalinda fans to People magazine.

"It was such an easy decision for me [to depart] because I had made up my mind, but when I actually left, and I listened to the reaction of the fans, I felt like I betrayed them," she related. "Just seeing the reacting was a little bit of a surprise."

Panjabi is also known for playing Jane Lesser on BBC Three comedy Personal Affairs and Reed Smith on BBC Two drama The Fall. The actress will next appear with Dwayne Johnson in disaster film San Andreas, which opens in theaters Friday.


Chris Brown, Nia Guzman Battle Over Child Support...
Reports say that once Nia Guzman -- mother to her and Chris Brown's daughter, Royalty -- demanded $15,000 a month in child support from her famous ex after he cut her off completely.

After the demands were made in March, TMZ reports that Guzman's lawyer, Carl Moore, is set on filing legal documents demanding back child support and an increase.

Brown paid $2,500 a month to Royalty's mom before he received, what he reportedly called, the "ridiculous" request. Guzman, however, says the singer is being "stingy" and their daughter is "suffering" as a result.

Although facing legal issues, Brown and little Royalty have still been seen together spending quality time. BET reports of many photos and videos posted by the star of special bonding moments between the two.

Taylor Swift Reveals Hardest Part Of Going On Tour Is Leaving Her Cats Behind...
While visiting the BBC Radio 1 studios over the weekend, Taylor Swift admitted that tour life is a lot easier than pop-stars make it out to be.

The "Bad Blood" singer started her 1989 World Tour on May 5 in Tokyo.

When she spoke to radio-show host Nick Grimshaw, she said: "Sometimes I really don't think it's that hard at all. When I was starting out I'd go on tour for three months and I was gone for three months. Now almost 10 years in, thank God we get to play bigger shows so I don't have to play as many."

Two or three stadium shows a week are no problem for the 25-year-old singer, it's leaving behind a couple of her furry friends that she struggles with. "I do have to leave the cats behind when I leave the country, which is the hardest part," she said.

While Olivia Benson and Meredith Grey's mom is globetrotting around the world, she says, "That's the best part of this [touring], when you walk off stage and you're drenched in sweat and you're tired and your legs hurt. It feels like you're really working for the job."


Charlie Sheen's Meltdown Made Dad Martin Sheen Feel 'powerless'...
Charlie Sheen's meltdown in 2011 made dad Martin Sheen feel powerless.

The elder actor, 74, admitted as much in an interview with Radio Times published Monday. Charlie Sheen was addicted to drugs and alcohol when his dismissal from CBS series Two and a Half Men sparked a series of public rants and erratic episodes.

"What he was going through at that time, we were powerless to do much," Martin Sheen recalled. "You try to be present as possible. But you have to be aware of the circumstances. You have to be aware of many things that the public is not aware of."

"Only those of us that knew him understood what was going on," he shared. "I'm talking about steroids, at that time. He was in a very desperate situation. And he was doing what he felt would get him out of it -- going public. And it was very painful. No less painful for him."

Charlie Sheen made headlines at the time for declaring himself a "warlock" with "tiger blood" and railing against Two and a Half Men creator Chuck Lorre and CBS. He also embarked on disastrous one-man show My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat Is Not an Option.

Martin Sheen himself struggled with addiction, and has been sober now for nearly 30 years. The actor currently stars on Netflix series Grace and Frankie with Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin and Sam Waterston, while Charlie Sheen last appeared on ABC sitcom The Goldbergs.


??? Guess Who ???
The actor who lost 40 pounds: and says, 'I did it in the most unhealthy way I could'?

It's Jeffrey Dean Morgan... He took drastic measures to lose 40 pounds for his role in Texas Rising, a History Channel original miniseries.

The Grey's Anatomy star, 49, chose not to eat anything but a can of tuna a day, telling Today Show hosts Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb last week that his character, Deaf Smith, suffered from consumption -- another word for tuberculosis.

"I got there and I was probably about 175, I left I was about 135," he said. "I ate a can of tuna fish a day. I did it in the most unhealthy way I could. I didn't consult with a doctor or anything. We had said maybe we should lose, like, 10 pounds and then I just kept going and going. And by the end of the movie I just looked like hell."

"I don't ever want to see tuna again," he said with a laugh.
