Anya Kop, America's Next Top Model
Cynical as I am about America's Next Top Model, I have to admit that after speaking with this cycle's runner-up, Anya Kop, I think the show deserves props for casting her as the sweetheart. As far as I can tell, she's the real deal. She may be well-coached on what to say and what not to, but underneath her practiced replies, there seems to be a nice girl — dizzy, endearing and oddly huggable. But as always, you don't have to take my word for it. Below, you can judge for yourself as TVGuide.com grills her on everything from getting naked for "noted fashion photographer" Nigel Barker to losing the title to her bosom buddy.
TVGuide.com: I know you and Whitney were very close, but do you really think she deserved to win over you?
Anya Kop: Definitely. I think she's an amazing person, and if I was going to see someone other than myself win, it would be Whitney. She's a beautiful model, and sh

Kristi Yamaguchi, Dancing with the Stars
Kristi Yamaguchi goes up against the boys this week on Dancing with the Stars' sixth season finale as she faces off against NFL star Jason Taylor and Latino actor Cristián de la Fuente. In what promises to be a fantastic night of cha cha chas and freestyle dances, Kristi and her partner Mark Ballas could be the ones to end the mens' streak — there hasn't been a female winner since Season 1's Kelly Monaco. But this Olympic gold medalist says she's too busy having fun to think about that.
TV Guide.com: You've been a favorite from the start, and it's been a while since a woman has won Dancing with the Stars. Are you feeling any extra pressure?
Kristi Yamaguchi: No, I'm not looking at it as extra pressure. I think there's been pressure throughout the competition. I'm really proud and thankful for the

And getting top billing this morning:WKRP in Cincinnati's Loni Anderson, 62, on Saturday married Bob Flick, a founding member of the 1960s folk group The Brothers Four.Per the AP, Anderson first met Flick in the early 1960s, at a movie premiere in Minneapolis a few years after his group's "Greenfields" hit No. 2 on the charts. A snapshot from that encounter served as the couple's wedding poster. Among those on hand for the exchange of vows was Anderson's son (via ex-husband Burt Reynolds), Quinton, who walked his mom down the aisle. Oh, and turkeys hit the pavement like sacks of wet cement. — MWM

Those who glimpse my Facebook updates know how much it pains me to have to bother to type this. But for the record, here goes.Ashlee Simpson and Fall Out Boy's Pete Wentz married Saturday night at her parents' Los Angeles-area home in an "Alice in Wonderland"-themed ceremony.Simpson wore an ivory Monique Lhuillier gown, papa Joe performed the non-denominational ceremony in front of 150 guests, and sister Jessica served as maid of honor.

Miley Cyrus has been accused of being a lot of things in recent weeks, but the latest stab is for alleged plagiarism. The rock band Lustra — we haven't heard of them either — is accusing Cyrus of ripping off their song "Scotty Doesn't Know," as her own in "Rockstar."This all may be over, however, before it really starts. Cyrus' rep asserts that the superstar doesn't write her own songs. The allegation has been passed on to Disney, says PageSix. It seems that Miley's success is making her a bigger target every week. Is she the victim of a fame-hungry music act, or could her songwriters have let their love of Eurotrip — the launchpad for Lustra's song in question — take them too far away from originality? — Anna DimondRelated• Use our Online Video Guide to watch clips of Miley Cyrus• Heff Wants Cyrus for Playboy• The Show Goes on for "Embarrassed" Miley

Shayne and Matt Grant by Adam Larkey/ABC
If the romantic (and sometimes totally over-the-top-embarrassing) journey that this season's Bachelor just took is still wrenching your heart, you can watch the love unfold all over again, on VH-1.Yes, the 'net that brought us "celebreality" as one word now is simply bringing on "reality," with its purchase of 130 hours of The Bachelor's ups, downs and steamy moments — and then some — which originally went down on ABC. A VH-1 exec told Variety, "People will watch it again for the intrigue, romance and backstabbing." Not surprisingly, the exec did not include "painful bachelorette serenades" in that list — clearly a savvy marketing mind at work there.The network will fill much of the first week in June with the reruns, keeping it on hand for as-needed slots in the future. Will you tune in to relive the love? Or were you over it at first sight? — Anna DimondFeel more love for Bachelor Matt Grant with our Online Video Guide.
