Popular "Good Morning America" anchor Robin Roberts still remains on medical leave in order to continue treatment for MDS, a rare blood and bone marrow disorder. The 52-year-old broadcaster received a bone marrow transplant back in September and has since responded positively to treatment, but remains in recovery at her NYC apartment. Fellow "GMA" co-hosts recently paid a visit to the happy and healthy-looking Roberts in order to kick-off holiday celebrations - decorating her home and exchanging X-mas gifts. Given the extensive media coverage of Roberts' illness and recovery, many people are beginning to wonder about the television personality's love life, and why no romantic partner has been spotted by her side during such an emotional and difficult time. Reports have it that Roberts is a lesbian, which is why she has continued to keep her dating life on the down low. But no matter what her sexual orientation, Roberts is a strong and motivational woman who has an extensive and loyal system of family, friends, and fans that will always be there for support.

"50 Shades of Grey" enthusiasts are still eagerly awaiting news of the official casting for the highly-anticipated film adaptation of E.L. James' erotica novel. There is still no sign that such decisions will be made anytime soon, but fans can now most likely cross Channing Tatum off the list as a Christian Grey contender. According to reports, Tatum plans on putting his acting career on hold in 2013 in order to focus on directing and producing - so unless he decides to work on "Fifty Shades of Grey" behind-the-scenes, there's probably little chance that the "Sexiest Man Alive" will be involved in the film. In other Christian Grey-related news, author E.L. James recently admitted that she isn't just paying attention to great looks when casting the part (although that is a main factor). The lucky guy who takes on the steamy role must also have emotional intelligence and a relatable sense of humor. Which male actor do Mstarz fans think best fits that description? Read More »
Popular comedian Katt Williams has had a rather interesting past few weeks. It all started when fans sued him over a 'non-performance' in Oakland earlier this November, and ended with a violent bar brawl over the weekend that resulted in the 39-year-old being arrested and charged with assault. Williams was scheduled to attend an arraignment at a Seattle, WA municipal court on Thursday morning (Dec. 6), but the "Friday After Next" star was a no-show. According to Williams' attorney Thomas McAllister, the stand-up comedian apparently believed he wasn't expected to show up in court if he had a legal representative there to speak for him. Williams has already returned to California... the judge bought his story this time around, and rescheduled the hearing for next week. Read More »
