Robin from Yucaipa sent an email to Ryan at Ryan@KIISFM.com asking whether she should continue dating a guy with the messiest room ever! You would think the guy would at least try to stuff his clothes in his closet or under the sheets, but apparently not! In this picture, you can’t even see the ground! At this rate, he should probably apply to be on the next season of ‘Hoarders: Buried Alive!’

After months of speculation we found out that Ashton Kutcher would be replacing Charlie Sheen on the new season of “Two and a Half Men”, but now we have some breaking news on some women who will also be joining the cast.

Ashton Kutcher’s ‘Two and a Half Men’ Character Revealed As….

It looks like Ashton’s character will have an ex-wife on the show. The characters former flame will be played by Judy Greer, best known for “Arrested Development,” “Mad Love,” “Californication,” and the cult classic “Jawbreaker.” Courtney Thorne-Smith, who played an internet love interest to Jon Cryer last year, will return to the show this season.

New Season of ‘Two And A Half Men’ Will Be ‘Smart, Irreverent, and Risque’ [AUDIO]

Their relationship fell apart after he suspected she was dating Charlie Sheen’s character, but I don’t think that will be a concern of his anymore. The season premiere of “Two and a Half Men” airs Monday September 19th at 9/8c on CBS.

It was announced earlier this week that Chaz Bono, the transgender son of Sonny and Cher would be joining the new cast of “Dancing With The Stars”.

So, we had the opportunity to ask him the question that everyone wants to know, ‘Will he be dancing to any of Cher’s hits on the show?’ Don’t hold your breath. When he answered the question he made it pretty short and very clear that he wasn’t interested.

I have to admit, I am a little disappointed…a Paso Doble to “Believe” would have been stellar. However, we will have to wait until the new season starts on September 19th to see what songs Chaz will be dancing to and maybe as an added bonus this season we will get a glimpse of Cher cheering him on from the front row!

A beautiful aerial rendition of what the finished 9/11 Memorial and Museum, and new World Trade Center will look like has been released. When completed,the newly constructed World Trade Center will be the tallest building in the U.S. Five skyscrapers will surround the memorial and two reflecting pools will located where the Twin Towers once stood. The whole site will be surrounded by a sustainable forest of trees grown within a 500-mile radius. The names of people killed in the attacks in 2001 and 1993 will be stencil-cut into the bronze walls surrounding the pools, so that light will shine through at night.

Singer Kelly Clarkson calls into “On Air With Ryan Seacrest” this morning to discuss her excitement for her new single “Mr. Know It All” and what her fifth studio album will entail.

“It feels pretty fricken awesome,” says the Season 1 “American Idol” winner when asked what it feels like to hear her single being played on the radio. She tells Ryan that “It feels like it’s the first time [she's ever] done it [music].”

“Mr. Know It All” is different from any of her other singles because the message is not just about relationships. Even though Clarkson admits she has a list of people that have brought her down, she states that the song is also about ignorant people who think they know everything about someone.

When asked about her fifth studio album, coming out October 25th, she compares her new album to today’s new trend of music: “It’s a really nice old pop before they had that stuff to make you sound like a robot.”

The album’s overall theme is of empowerment and strength with a record full of anthems that will make us want to stomp our foot on the ground when belting out the lyrics!

Kelly Clarkson’s “Already Gone”

Kelly will be performing at the iHeartRadio Music Festival. We can’t wait to hear what other chart-topping hits she’ll be coming out with!

What do you think of her new single? Let us know in the comments!

Chaz Bono, son of Sonny & Cher, called into “On Air With Ryan Seacrest” on Wednesday to talk about the big reveal of him being a part of the new cast of ABC’sDancing With The Stars.”

Chaz didn’t even tell his mom Cher until right before ABC’s big reveal last Sunday during the Bachelor Pad! Mom definitely approves, saying that she thought it was great and is excited for him.

The 3 time Emmy-nominated transgendered advocate tells us why he wanted to be involved in the dancing show: “It gave me an opportunity to really physically challenge myself. For so many years, I was uncomfortable with my body. And now finally being comfortable in it for the first time, doing something like this was really appealing to me.”
