The grizzled remains of Rolling Stone Keith Richards are hard at work on a memoir, to be published by Little Brown and Co. in 2010. Doing the actual writing of the account of his wild-'n'-crazy life on the road is White Mischief author James Fox. In other music news, Marilyn Manson is being sued by his keyboard player Stephen "Pogo" Bier for nonpayment. Instead of taking care of business, the synth whiz alleges, the weirdo rocker spent his dough on "sick and disturbing... Nazi memorabilia and taxidermy [including the skeleton of a young Chinese girl]".

A rep for Evan Rachel Wood scoffs at talk that the 19-year-old's love scene with beau Marilyn Manson featured in the video for "Heart-shaped Glasses" was the, um, real deal, telling the New York Daily News, "It's called acting." Whew.... Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox will lend their likenesses and voices to Transformers: The Game, a next-gen title based on the upcoming film.... FX ponied up some $30 mil for rights to Ghost Rider, Premonition, Underworld: Evolution and The Grudge 2.... Night at the Museum last week topped the DVD rental chart for a third straight time, while Because I Said So was the No. 1 seller. Really? Because I Said So? Really? Oh, Mother's Day. Gotcha.

Talk shows have been around since the advent of television broadcasting, but there's never been one quite like The Henry Rollins Show. Provocative, confrontational and seemingly unable to pull his punches, Henry Rollins returns to the IFC this Friday, April 13 (at 11 pm/ET), to begin his second season, accompanied by guest Marilyn Manson. To mark the occasion, IFC is preceding the premiere at 9:30 with Henry Rollins: Uncut from Israel, a documentary chronicling the former rocker's trip to Tel Aviv for a spoken-word gig. Rollins recently gave TVGuide.com a piece of his mind.

David Blaine is a total hack, especially compared to Criss Angel. Although the three-time Magician of the Year winner has never romanced Fiona Apple, he's seduced celebrities such as Mandy Moore, Rob Zombie and Korn's Jonathan Davis — not to mention Goth-guy-loving gals — with his fantastical illusions, feats of endurance, adorable "Noo Yawk" accent and sexy Marilyn Manson-style wardrobe (thankfully accessorized by a much hotter face and body than the shock rocker). Last year marked the debut of his riveting A&E reality show

Say what you will about So You Think You Can Dance's unwieldy title. Fact is, the Fox reality competition was a ratings success during its premiere incarnation, and as such is back for an encore starting tonight at 8 pm/ET. (The contest then continues Wednesdays and Thursdays at 9.) What's new and exciting for Season 2? For one, the dance-off is now hosted by British TV personality Cat Deeley, whom TVGuide.com recently gave a ring.
TVGuide.com: Is it now an official requirement that every American reality program feature at least one British accent?
Cat Deeley: [Laughs] Somebody has to give it all a bit of authority, Matt! No, I don't think its absolutely required, bu
