NBC DECIDED NOT TO SHOW A FEW THINGS FROM THE OLYMPICS' OPENING CEREMONY

NBC had a lot of explaining to do after airing the opening ceremonies of the Olympics Friday night.  Part of the ceremony was a tribute to the victims of the terror attack that took place in London on July 7th, 2005 that killed 52 people.  But if you watched the show on Friday night, it never aired.  For that decision, NBC is getting a lot of heat.

Instead of showing the tribute, NBC cut away to an interview between Ryan Seacrest and Michael Phelps. 

In response to all the bad publicity they've gotten, NBC released this statement, "Out programming is tailored for the U.S. audience.   It's a tribute to (producer) Danny Boyle that it required so little editing."

If you want to see the tribute, and other things you missed because the show was, "tailored to the U.S. audience,"  CLICK HERE.

IT'S OVER!

This was the scene outside Robert Pattinson's home this weekend.  A lonely UHaul truck parked outside.

It appears as though Rob and Kristen are done, and that puts their appearance at the MTV Video Music Awards in jeopardy.  They're supposed to be co-presenters at the event in September, but something tells us it's not going to happen.

JACKSON MADNESS UPDATE

This situation couldn't get any more bizarre, but it is.  On Friday night, Michael Jackson's kids, Prince, Paris and Blanket, went to see the Jacksons concert with their grandmother Katherine.  REALLY!?!

The tour is made up of Marlon, Tito, Jackie and Jermaine.  Three out of those four are against all the nonsense that has gone on with Michael's will.  The crazy one....Jermaine (of course).

It's a little weird that they're all there, considering the mess that happened with Katherine's alleged kidnapping.
