In today's update, Dax talks about the NBC mixup with Conan O'Brien and Jay Leno. Conan O'Brien has refused to play along with NBC's plan to move "The Tonight Show" and return Jay Leno to late-night, abruptly derailing the network's effort to resolve its scheduling mess. Plus, Simon Cowell has announced that he'll leave "American Idol' at the end of this season to executive-produce and judge an American version of his hit English program "The X Factor" was designed to commence one of those extended, heartwarming farewells. What an instant ratings booster! Now, even viewers skeptical about the ascent of self-described fan's representative Ellen DeGeneres to the judges' table will have to tune in -- if only to savor the twilight of Simon's patented nastiness. And finally, now we know why Octomom Nadya Suleman works out in the middle of the night ... it's easier to get into the gym when you're persona non grata. We found out Octomom fell behind on her membership fees at least three times at 24 Hour Fitness. Looks like the gym has a 3 strikes rule, because our sources say Octomom's membership was yanked January 4. As for what led up to the termination ... Octo apparently used at least two credit or debit cards that were declined. Suggestion -- if Octo needs a workout, she can lift her 14 kids.  « Less
