"Grey’s Anatomy" has never been a predictable show, and that’s one of the many reasons we love it. But if we’re being completely honest here, most of the surprises have made us cry, not smile (or become so overly giddy that we nearly die of joy).

30 Stars Who Are Celebrating Their First Mother's Day
Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there!
In honor of this very special occasion, we wanted to celebrate all the new moms in Hollywood who had their first babies this year. From Sienna Miller, who welcomed daughter Marlowe with fiance Tom Sturridge in July, to Malin Akerman, who just gave birth to son Sebastian on April 16, many stars will have an extra-sweet Mother's Day in 2013.
Take Giuliana Rancic, for instance -- the E! star, who welcomed her son Duke via surrogate in August, is planning on enjoying every minute of her memorable day.
“Bill [her husband] and I are having our moms come to LA for Mother’s Day –- to make it special for all of us,” Rancic told Celebrity Baby Scoop. “We’re planning a fancy brunch with the whole family at a nice hotel in Newport Coast and then a walk on the beach. Really, I just want to relax and enjoy the day together as a whole family.”
"This Mother’s Day is especially meaningful because it’s my first time to celebrate as a mother, of course," she added. "After struggling for years to have a baby, it’s a real gift to be able to spend the special day with Bill, Duke and our family.”
Check out all the new celebrity moms who'll be celebrating this year:

Check Out Kanye In 'Anchorman 2'
Here's confirmation about an urgent and horrifying news story: Kanye West appears in "Anchorman 2." Set photos of West filming a scene in "Anchorman: The Legend Continues" arrived online on Friday.
West's role in the film, which was spoiled earlier this week, is of the cameo variety. The rap superstar appears during a brawl among rival news teams -- a scene that, in description, sounds similar to the news brawl in the first "Anchorman" film.
West, wearing a wig that looks leftover from Robert Downey Jr.'s "Tropic Thunder" dressing room, is shown brandishing a hockey stick as a weapon.
"Anchorman: The Legend Continues" is out in theaters on Dec. 20, meaning director Adam McKay and his production team have just about seven months to get the film finished and released. Other major stars with cameos in "Anchorman 2" include Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Sacha Baron Cohen and Nicole Kidman. McKay has downplayed the star power of "Anchorman 2," however, joking to TheWrap that Leonardo DiCaprio and deceased actor Cesar Romero would also appear in the film. Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Steve Carell, Christina Applegate and Kristen Wiig all star in "Anchorman: The Legend Continues."
Newcomer Lands Massive Lead Role
Ansel Elgort is about to blow up. According to Entertainment Weekly writer Sara Vilkomerson, Elgort has been offered the male lead in "The Fault In Our Stars" opposite previously cast Shailene Woodley. If hired, Elgort will play Gus in the adaptation of John Green's best-selling young adult drama. Josh Boone (the upcoming film "Stuck in Love") is set to direct.
Elgort has yet to make his feature film debut, but he's already landed some high profile parts. He's a co-star in the upcoming remake of "Carrie" and also stars alongside Woodley in the adaptation of YA sensation "Divergent." (In a somewhat icky twist, Elgort plays Woodley's brother in "Divergent"; their relationship in "The Fault In Our Stars" is of the romantic variety.)
Released in January of 2012, "The Fault In Our Stars" focuses on Hazel (Woodley), a 16-year-old suffering from cancer who forms a relationship with Augustus (Elgort), a fellow cancer survivor. Just last week, Variety reported that Elgort was on a short list of young actors testing for the role with Woodley. According to the trade, Brenton Thwaites, Nat Wolff, Nick Robinson and Noah Silver were also vying for "The Fault In Our Stars."

'Young And Restless' Plans Jeanne Cooper Tribute
NEW YORK — CBS says "The Young and the Restless" will broadcast a tribute to Jeanne Cooper, the veteran star of the daytime drama who died earlier this week. It is scheduled to air May 28.
The network says cast members, friends and family of the actress will gather next week to tape a celebration of her life. Interviews with Cooper from the show's recent 40th anniversary and clips of her years on the show will also be included.
Cooper, who died Wednesday at 84, played grande dame Katherine Chancellor. She joined the soap six months after its March 1973 debut, staking claim to the title of its longest-tenured cast member.
The role earned her 11 Daytime Emmy nominations and a trophy for best actress in a drama series in 2008.
CBS Picks Up Six Shows For Next Season
CBS has picked up Chuck Lorre's new comedy "Mom" for a full season, the network announced today.
Deadline first reported the news that CBS would order the multicamera sitcom to series ahead of the network's upfronts presentation to advertisers on May 15.
CBS's "Mom," starring Anna Faris as a newly sober single mom who blames her problems on her own mother (Allison Janney), has maintained its buzz throughout the pilot season race, and was considered by many to be an early lock for a pickup thanks to the caliber of Lorre and its cast.
"Mom" is reportedly being considered for the 8:30 p.m. Monday slot with "How I Met Your Mother" as a lead-in, but this likely won't be confirmed until CBS unveils the rest of its lineup next week.
CBS has also picked up two dramas -- "Lost" alum Josh Holloway's "Intelligence" and Jerry Bruckheimer's "Hostages," starring Toni Collette -- and three more comedies -- the Robin Williams and Sarah Michelle Gellar vehicle "Crazy Ones"; the Will Arnett-fronted comedy "The Millers"; and "We Are Men," starring Kal Penn, Jerry O'Connell and Tony Shalhoub.

PHOTO: Miranda Kerr Flashes Skin In Strange Body Stocking
As a former Victoria's Secret Angel, Miranda Kerr certainly isn't shy about putting on some racy garments, but we're still a little confused by the latest outfit she's modeling: a sheer body stocking.
For Marie Claire Australia's June issue, the supermodel graces the cover in a long-sleeve one-piece thing (hey, it could very well be a tight dress) that just looks like a wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen. We can't imagine she moved much during the shoot.
"When you shoot a cover it’s more about engaging with the audience," she said the last time she landed a Marie Claire Australia cover story. "You need to be a little bit more friendly and approachable. It depends on what you’re wearing, as well, and the feeling that you want to portray and what the editor wants."
Any guess as to which emotions Miranda was hoping to evoke with this shot? We assume reactions will only be positive: The Aussie is beloved in her country's fashion scene, posing for Vogue Australia, serving as "fashion ambassador" of David Jones (until last month, that is) and even launching flight attendant uniforms for Qantas.
So did Marie Claire do right by Miranda when they put her in this sheer, risqué look? Check out the cover below and tell us what you think!

Attacked Onstage: Gropings, Bird Droppings And Worse
Live shows are the prime opportunity for fans to get some facetime with their favorite musicians -- but some inevitably get a little too close. The phenomenon happens all too often: an overzealous concertgoer rushes the stage or hurls something at the performer, sparking upheaval among the crowd and endless replays around the web.
The most recent example came May 6 when a Justin Bieber fan rushed the stage in what was later said to be an attempt to hug the 19-year-old singer.
It wasn't the first time a fan majorly overstepped concert decorum. Here's a look at 10 anxious fans who found it impossible to keep their love contained.
Say Goodbye To 'CSI: NY'
The New York City-set show from the "CSI" franchise will not be renewed for a Season 10, CBS has announced. Now, the original "CSI" is the only show still standing and it will return for a fourteenth season.
The network's decision to cancel "CSI: NY" doesn't come as a surprise.
The long-running Friday night procedural saw ratings drop over the course of its last few seasons. In its seventh season, "CSI: NY" averaged a 1.8 ratings in the key 18-49 demographic with 10.03 million total viewers; Season 8 saw an average rating of a 1.6 in the key demographic and 9.94 million total viewers; and its most recent ninth season, which wrapped in February, averaged a 1.4 rating and 9.68 million total viewers.
“It was a 50-50 toss-up. We have a good solid show, but I know from a business perspective what they’re thinking about," "CSI: NY" star Gary Sinise recently told Larry King of the "CSI: NY" Season 9 renewal. "Has our show run its course? Can they find a new show that’s cheaper to make than ours that can do as well? They have to take a lot into account, but we’re a solid show and when they picked us up, I was happy about it.”
CBS gave particularly early renewals to "Big Bang Theory," "How I Met Your Mother," "NCIS" and "CSI" and at the end of March, the network handed out a heap of additional renewals to "The Good Wife," "The Mentalist," "Hawaii Five-0," " CIS: Los Angeles," "Blue Bloods," "Elementary," "Person of Interest," "2 Broke Girls," "Mike & Molly," "The Amazing Race," "Survivor" and "Undercover Boss."
CBS had previously canceled "Made In Jersey" and "Partners."

'Breaking Bad's' Most Famous Words Get Auto-Tuned
Two words are uttered more than any other words on "Breaking Bad." Not Walt, meth, Skyler, drugs, Jesse or cook. We're talking about Jesse Pinkman's always-eloquent "yo" and "b****."
The Internet is not naïve to this fact -- there have been plenty of "yo" mash-ups and "b****" mash-ups made by fans. What there hasn't been? A "Yo B****" combo mash-up, auto-tuned rap music video style. Until now.
Watch our (understandably NSFW) mash-up, above, "yo b***"-along with it and then watch again. Because yo, we've got three more months until the final episodes premiere (Sun., Aug. 11 at 9 p.m. EST on AMC). B****.

Celebrity Week In Review: Stars At The Met Ball & More
Some of the world's biggest celebrities stepped out in New York City on Monday night for the annual Met Ball, which was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and celebrated the exhibit "Punk: Chaos to Couture."
Jennifer Lawrence, Sarah Jessica Parker, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kristen Stewart, Anne Hathaway, Miley Cyrus and more walked the red carpet in their best "punk" ensembles, wowing in studded minis, see-through gowns and patterned frocks. Pregnant Kim Kardashian attended the event for the first time, sporting a custom-made Givenchy gown as she was escorted by beau Kanye West.
Speaking of Kim, the mommy-to-be bared her blossoming belly in a bikini on the cover of Us Weekly's latest issue. The 32-year-old flaunted it all in a tiny two-piece while soaking up the sun in Mykonos, Greece, with her family.
Also this week, new allegations were filed against Michael Jackson, who is being posthumously accused of childhood sexual abuse by choreographer Wade Robson. Court documents claim that the late singer molested him as a child. Robson's lawyers are asking a judge in the Michael Jackson Estate case to allow him to file a late creditor's claim against the estate.
Other trending news stories: Christina Aguilera's weight loss, Chris Brown and Rihanna's breakup and Amanda Bynes' nose job.

Cate Blanchett Looks Flawless
Cate Blanchett poses for a photograph during the launch of Suncorp Twenties held at the Sydney Theatre Company on Friday (May 10) in Sydney, Australia.
The 43-year-old actress was joined by her hubby Andrew Upton and Geoff Summerhayes, CEO of Suncorp Life, as they announced the new theatre ticketing initiative.
Rihanna Is Back At It
Good news, Rihanna fans -- the singer is back in the studio.
The 25-year-old artist took to her Instagram on Friday to post a picture of herself in a recording studio with rapper Wale. "Work hard play hard!" Rihanna wrote. "[Wale] and I cooking up a lil treat!!! #studiolife."
The newly-single singer took advantage of a two-week break in the middle of her Diamonds World Tour to clock some recording time. Washington, D.C.-raised rapper Wale has worked with Rih's music before, sampling her song, "Question Existing," off of the "Good Girl Gone Bad" album for his 2009 track, "Contemplate."
There is no word yet as to whether the duo's recent collaboration will be included on an upcoming album from Rihanna or as part of "The Gifted," Wale's third studio album, hitting stores on June 25.
The ever-busy Rihanna had been rumored to be taking a break after the wrap of her Diamonds World Tour.
"She's been in this go mode for a while. Seven hit records in seven years," Ryan Seacrest said on his radio show. "Sold-out tours, but sources say after this tour wraps, she plans to take up to a year off to unwind."
RiRi has yet to comment on plans for her next album.
Omnia Saed: Why Beyoncé Is A Role Model
For my next article, I wanted to write about something as far away from pop culture as possible, in part because I didn't want to be labeled as that teenager. The teenager obsessed with stars and becoming one, with no moral findings to her role models, but glitz and glamour; the naive teenager that falls for the fame, money, and lavish lifestyles.
After all, by writing about culture I fit the idiosyncrasy that fits all teenagers -- the label put on my generation, the clueless ones who don't know just yet what they're doing and foolishly fall for the celebrities who seem to have it all.
But what I've realized the more I've grown older, is that at times, that ignorance and that naivety so accustomed to me and those my age, comes from the very people who label us.
I know who to look up too, what defines a role model. Just as I become aware of who I am, I become aware of whom my role models are, whether they may be politicians, teachers, family members or, dare I say it, celebrities.
And as I read the Rakhi Kumar's "Open Letter to Michelle Obama," I couldn't help but squirm. There it goes again: I'm being labeled to fit this mold of pitiless idolization, and in this case, Ms. Kumar, I think you're the one to reconsider your mindset.
I am part of the Beyoncé generation. Since the Destiny's Child circa, I've grown up with her, own all of her albums, and have watched all of her world tour documentaries. And just as prominently, I'm part of the newly galvanized Michelle Obama fan base, having gotten the opportunity to meet her personally, watch her speeches and read her books.
Two women, completely different from one another in every aspect and way, and yet, I look up to them.
Michelle Obama, because she is the epitome of educational success, elegance, intelligence and can command a room to inspire.
Beyoncé? Because I have watched all of her interviews. Because I, on my own, found qualities that made her a pinnacle for my admiration. Because I know the difference between an entertainer and a person. Because she sings songs and talks of female empowerment -- empowerment that radiates as she walks down a stage and leads her all-female band. Because I know that being risqué, and showing some skin, does not constitute what someone's character is compromised of or banish her from being someone to look up to. Because the way
Beyoncé performs does not equate to girls going into prostitution, as their stories are an amalgam of experiences we cannot equate or place a source to, when we ourselves have never felt it. Because we live in a society where we're telling girls to adhere to certain restrictions, before teaching young men that there are seals of honor they should never break. Because I know that the same people telling me to be proud of my body and the skin I'm in, tell me to cover it away because the way I appear somehow also constitutes who I am.
Trite classifications are outdated. Being "sexy," being confident, being risky is synonymously considered a threat to character, and I know that more than anyone. Being a Muslim-American my religion gets the same classifications -- a woman wearing a niqab, hijab, and long sleeves is labeled off. To me, these women showcase their modesty -- modesty that I respect and admire wholeheartedly, and on the other side of the spectrum, understand just as equally. So, do not tell me that covering up, or showing too much skin dictates the character I posses.
As a woman who has solidified herself in her industry, Beyoncé is the female artist with most Grammy awards won in a single night -- six. She is tied with Dolly Parton for holding the most Grammy nominations for a female artist (45) and is one of the most successful female artists in music.
Beyoncé has become synonymous to power, command and dominance, all at the age of 30.
So yes, I'll fit that premeditated notion you've made of me, and defend Beyoncé. But I want you know exactly why.
A role model comes in a variety of looks, careers and attributes.
You're right Mrs. Obama, Beyoncé is a role model. Both of you are, and that's something I've come to find on my own. And it might change as I grow older, or become even more firmly affirmed.
You're right -- all that's gold doesn't glitter, but it's our job to find exactly what does.
Or take it from Beyoncé herself who said in an interview with Vogue, "I guess I am a modern-day feminist. I do believe in equality. Why do you have to choose what type of woman you are? Why do you have to label yourself anything? I'm just a woman and I love being a woman..."
O.J. Simpson Returns To Court To Fight For His Freedom
LAS VEGAS — Like a recurring nightmare, the return of O.J. Simpson to a Las Vegas courtroom come Monday will remind Americans of a tragedy that became a national obsession and in the process changed the country's attitude toward the justice system, the media and celebrity.
His 1995 trial is the stuff of legends, the precipitous fall of a Hall of Fame football player from the pinnacle of adoration to a murder defendant who, although acquitted of killing his ex-wife and her friend, was never absolved in the public mind.
He is arguably the most famous American ever charged with murder, and his "trial of the century" cast him in the role of the accused – no longer the superhero-turned-movie actor held up to young people as an example of achievement.
But less is remembered about the 2008 Las Vegas trial that sent Simpson to prison for a bizarre hotel room robbery in which the celebrity defendant said he just wanted to take back personal memorabilia that he claimed was stolen from him.
When he comes to court Monday, it is that conviction for armed robbery and kidnapping that will be before a Nevada judge. Simpson is seeking freedom in what lawyers often call a "Hail Mary motion," a writ of habeas corpus. It claims he had such bad representation that his conviction should be reversed and a new trial ordered. Most defendants lose these motions, but in this case nobody is taking bets on the outcome.
"Nothing is the same when O.J. is involved," said Loyola Law School professor Laurie Levenson, who observed Simpson's Los Angeles trial. "An O.J. case is never like any other case."
With Simpson, the past is always a prologue – and so memories of his murder trial are certain to serve as a backdrop throughout the Las Vegas hearing. This case, while less dramatic in nature, carries with it far more devastating consequences.
Now 65 years old, Simpson has already spent the last four years in prison and must serve at least nine years of his maximum 33-year sentence before he is even eligible for parole. He would be 70 by then. If Simpson doesn't win a new trial, he could conceivably spend the rest of his life locked up.
"I try to explain to people how somebody could come from nothing to live the American dream and then lose it all," said Simpson's former manager and agent, Mike Gilbert, who is expected to testify at the hearing. "I have a hard time with it."
Close friend Jim Barnett describes Simpson as grayer, paunchier and limping a little more these days from old knee injuries. The Silicon Valley venture capitalist has visited Simpson several times at the medium-security Lovelock Correctional Center, an hour northeast of Reno.
Simpson, Barnett said, is a favorite among inmates. He has served as prison gym steward and coached a champion prison baseball team. "He gets along with everyone there," he said. "But he's slow. Last time I saw him, he had gotten quite heavy."
Before the "trial of the century," there were few televised court cases, no celebrity justice shows and a minimum of talking heads holding forth on TV about the prospects of famous defendants in court. Simpson's murder trial, televised from gavel to gavel, brought the legal arena into living rooms and turned lawyers into stars.
And Simpson, the quintessential American sports hero, was brought down by a trial that could not vindicate him even with a "not guilty" verdict. Too many people wanted him to pay for the deaths of his beautiful ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ronald Goldman, found stabbed in front of her Los Angeles condominium.
Too many people believed Simpson had gotten away with murder.
The man who had won the Heisman Trophy and was known for his phenomenal running on a football field – and in commercials for Hertz cars – ran again when he was named as a suspect in the June 1994 killings. The spectacle of police chasing after one of America's most famous men across Los Angeles freeways was an image for history books. The slow-speed white Ford Bronco pursuit became part of the legend.
It took a year for his trial to unfold. There were issues of racism, domestic violence, mishandled evidence – and the many memorable moments, and lines, that quickly became part of the pop culture lexicon: Simpson struggling to squeeze on a bloody black glove and his lawyer, Johnnie Cochran, admonishing the jury: "If it doesn't fit, you must acquit."
The case so captivated America that on the day of the verdict, even then-President Bill Clinton watched it on TV.
Simpson walked out a free man. But he would be a pariah forever after.
As shocking as Simpson's fall from grace is his involvement in the hotel room heist that landed him in prison.
Those who try to explain it come back to one word – hubris, the literary allusion to excessive self-confidence, pride and arrogance. Simpson refused to accept that people didn't idolize him anymore. He boasted about his continuing celebrity status. He was delighted that people still wanted his autograph and wanted to hang out with him at the pool of The Palms hotel in Las Vegas. And that was where the disastrous plan was born.
He had come to Las Vegas that September of 2007 for a happy event. His old friend, Tom Scotto, was getting married and invited Simpson to be his best man. Scotto still sounds anguished when he recalls the weekend.
"If it wasn't for me," Scotto said in an interview, "he wouldn't have been there."
Simpson, trial testimony would show, organized a posse of five friends and acquaintances to accompany him to a hotel where he was told some men were trying to sell his mementos, including family pictures. It was to be a sting of sorts, in which the memorabilia dealers would think an anonymous buyer was coming.
When Simpson walked into the hotel room, he realized he knew the sellers from previous dealings and he accused them of stealing from him. He shouted that no one was to leave the room – an action that would be judged to fit the legal definition of kidnapping. As Simpson's guys began bagging up the memorabilia, one of them pulled a gun, according to trial testimony.
No one was injured, but the sellers called the police – and another Simpson case for another century was launched.
It turned out that Tom Riccio, another memorabilia dealer who played middleman between Simpson and the sellers, had planted a tape recorder in the hotel room and the tape, played for jurors, was powerful evidence.
Simpson's cohorts testified against him, including the man who said he brought a gun. They were an odd assortment of down-on-their luck Vegas characters who received plea deals and were set free on probation.
Simpson's co-defendant at his trial, Clarence "C.J." Stewart, served more than two years in prison before the Nevada Supreme Court overturned his conviction. The justices ruled Simpson's fame tainted the proceedings and that Stewart should have been tried separately. Stewart took a plea deal to avoid a retrial and was released.
Simpson, meantime, was sentenced by Clark County District Court Judge Jackie Glass to nine to 33 years in prison. Referencing the earlier murder trial, the judge said that her penalty was not intended as "retribution or any payback for anything else." She made no mention of the two Las Vegas police detectives overheard in a taped conversation saying that if California authorities couldn't "get" Simpson, those in Nevada would. The tape was played at the trial.
On Monday, Simpson will be back before a different judge who agreed to hear evidence on 19 claims of ineffective counsel and attorney conflict of interest. Simpson contends his trial attorney never told him about a plea bargain that had been offered by prosecutors. He also said in a sworn statement that the same attorney knew about the memorabilia sting before it happened, and "he advised me that I was within my legal rights."
Simpson is expected to testify sometime during the weeklong hearing. Instead of wearing an expensive suit and tie, the man known to Nevada authorities as inmate No. 1027820 will be dressed in plain blue prison garb.

"I feel fantastic," she added. "This has been the biggest surprise of my life to tell you the truth. I thought I was kind of past the point where this could be a reality for me. So it's been a big surprise and the most wonderful."

'Great Gatsby' Film Inspires Visits To Odd Fitzgerald Landmark
WASHINGTON -- "The Great Gatsby" movie may not be getting terrific reviews, but it has sparked big interest in F. Scott Fitzgerald -- including the writer's final resting spot.
Spoiler alert: the grave is inscribed with the book's last lines:
The Washington Post reports that since the film's opening sent "Gatsby" up Amazon's bestsellers list, it's also led to a surge in visitors coming by F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald's graves, in suburban Maryland.
“We usually see a handful of people visiting the cemetery in a given week,” Rev. Monsignor Robert Amey of St. Mary’s Catholic Church, where the couple is buried, told the Post. “That number has tripled in the last week.”
The Post -- which details Fitzgerald's familial connections with Maryland -- notes that many visitors leave graveside offerings, including "flowers, spare change and liquor. Aspiring authors leave pens, and admirers occasionally write handwritten notes. A top hat, adorned with a martini glass ribbon, is the most recent addition."
The Baltimore house where Fitzgerald lived and wrote -- though it's not where "The Great Gatsby" was produced -- went on the market earlier this year for $450,000. Be (modestly) bullish on Fitzgerald: The house sold after about two months for $464,000.
Want to visit F. Scott's and Zelda's graves for yourself? They're in Rockville, Md., at St. Mary’s Catholic Church (520 Veirs Mill Rd., Rockville, Md.).
While in Rockville, you can also visit the Rockville Union Cemetery, the cemetery where the Fitzgeralds were first buried.
Here's Patch's description of why the couple wasn't in St. Mary's to begin with:
Montgomery County Historical Society archives state that Fitzgerald died in 1940 in Hollywood, Calif. in his lover’s apartment, a woman named Sheilah Graham. Because of his adulterous relationship and party lifestyle, the Catholic Church denied F. Scott the rite to be buried on consecrated ground in the family plot at Saint Mary’s. F. Scott had wanted to be buried with his parents, but instead he was buried in a small Protestant cemetery called Rockville Union Cemetery, located about two miles from Saint Mary’s.
