How about that Ed! Gone one week, back the next, and got himself a rose! And how about that Wes! Finessed (for now) Jake's girlfriend-charge and got himself a rose! It might take "kiptynite" (er, kryptonite) to get that slick country boy outta here. So the two of them, plus Reid and Kiptyn, are off to Spain for flamenco and, perhaps, fantasy-suite frolicking with Jillian. Will the long hinted-at bedroom problem happen tonight? We'll see. The three survivors join Jillian in Hawaii next week.

Sarah Palin

What's next for Sarah Palin following her unexpected resignation from Alaska's top job and serving as a favorite pop-culture target?

Even though the freshman governor gave no details on her future plans other than "looking forward to serving the public outside the governor's chair," she has given us plenty to talk about for the past year.

Just last month she publicly feuded with David Letterman, who ultimately apologized for poking fun at one of the governor's teenage daughters.

Water, water everywhere — that's where country fans can expect to hear "Water," the second single from Brad Paisley's new American Saturday Night CD, this summer. It shouldn't come as a surprise, seeing as how Paisley's coming off yet another No 1 hit with "Then" (his 10th No. 1 single in a row), not to mention two CMA awards last November and three CMT awards last month. And be very surprised if he doesn't play "Water" on this morning's GMA Central Park concert.
