Despite initial reservations, Heidi Klum and Taylor Williamson appear, according to this video for the latest season of America’s Got Talent, to be going out exclusively, sort of.
Hopefully, they can be America’s next power couple since Mariah and Nick broke up.
2) Congrats to Melissa Villasenor on moving onto the semifinals of America’s Got Talent and actually proving the show’s title right.
3) The Ploplist interviews successful (and paid) podcast producer Katie Levine.
4) Of course you want to see Las Vegas’ #1 Weather Dame, Becky Lake… (Also, Erin Gibson is damn funny)
5) Rob Delaney beats out Daniel Tosh and Conan O’Brien on Twitter.
6) While it’s enticing to hear that there is going to be a series, Laughing Stock, where Steve Carell interviews comedians, please read Steve Heisler’s post about what makes a ‘definitive’ interview with comedians. [via CleftClips]
