Gomez sings 'Cry Me a River'
Singer-actress Selena Gomez, who broke up with pop star Justin Bieber this month, sang the song "Cry Me a River" at a weekend concert in New York. The couple called it quits after about two years of on-off dating. "I've been through a lot the past few months. It's been weird and sad and cool," UsMagazine.com reported Gomez, 20, said at a private benefit concert for UNICEF. "This song definitely speaks to me." "Cry Me a River" was a big hit for singer Justin Timberlake in 2002 after his split from longtime girlfriend Britney Spears. UsMagazine.com said Bieber has also sung the song at concerts.
Katie Couric to interview Manti Te'o
Katie Couric will interview Manti Te'o and his parents about what they've called an elaborate fake-girlfriend hoax, producers of the U.S. show "Katie" said. Couric will sit down with the Notre Dame star and Brian and Ottilia Te'o, who are speaking out for the first time about the prank. Their conversation will be broadcast on Couric's syndicated daytime program Thursday. The football player said he was the victim of a hoax after it was revealed his girlfriend never existed and her death was faked. "The story has raised a cloud of questions about who was involved, why the hoax was perpetrated and whether Te'o, runner-up for the Heisman Trophy this season, himself made up the story," "Katie" producers said in a news release Sunday. Te'o recently admitted to ESPN's Jeremy Schaap he made a few mistakes regarding the incident, including telling his father he met Lennay Kekua in Hawaii, even though his attempt to meet her actually failed. "Later retellings of that tale led to inconsistencies in media reports, Te'o said, adding that he never actually met Kekua in person," "Katie" producers noted in the release. "Te'o added that he feared people would think it was crazy for him to be involved with someone that he never met, so, 'I kind of tailored my stories to have people think that, yeah, he met her before she passed away.' Te'o told ESPN's Schaap that he only learned for sure this week that he had been duped. Now he and his parents will give Couric the full story."

Ashley Judd still eyeing Senate campaign
Actress Ashley Judd said she was still considering running for the U.S. Senate against powerful Republican Minority Leader Mitch McConnell. The political novice told The (Louisville) Courier-Journal and Politico she was "taking a close look" at challenging McConnell for one of Kentucky's Senate seats next year. The Courier-Journal said Judd made her comments while attending the Bluegrass Ball, a high-end party in the heart of the Beltway sponsored by Kentucky Society of Washington. Judd had not made any statements on her political aspirations in person before Saturday's soiree, the newspaper said, but was sounding much like a candidate. "The people of Kentucky need a fighter," Judd said. "And certainly going back 10 generations, I've got some fighters from those hills in my family." McConnell, who has been in the Senate since 1985, did not attend the Bluegrass Ball and could not be reached for comment.
