Welcome to THG's Week in Review! Below, our staff takes a look back at the stories, stars and scandals that made this week one of the year's most memorable.

Please follow THG on Twitter and Facebook! Now, for this week's rundown ...

• Billy Ray Cyrus believes Miley is under attack by Satan. He really said this.

• Lara Logan of CBS News was sexually assaulted on assignment in Egypt.
• Did Frankie Muniz put a gun to his head and then hit his girlfriend?

Camille Grammer will NOT attend the February 25 wedding between Kelsey Grammer and Kayte Walsh. But the reality star absolutely WILL talk at length about it. Truly shocking, we know.

"I don't want to be involved with the wedding, not at all," Camille tells People. "But I don't begrudge him his happiness."

Instead of attending her ex-husband's nuptials, Camille will sit in the first row for daughter Mason's talent show. In case you hadn't heard, her children are her number-one priority these days.

Well, number-two. The first remains dragging out her status on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

"I'm completely on the fence and I've spoken to producers and that's something that we need to decide together," she says of deciding to come back for season two or not. "There's a part of me that really wants to do it and there's another part that's nervous because of what I've experienced with it."

Having just recovered from the presence of Jersey Shore, the good folks of The Sunshine State must next deal with The Real Housewives of Miami. We're very sorry for them.

The first season of this new Bravo franchise kicks off on February 22 and the cast members spoke to The Miami New Times this week about what we can expect. Read on for excerpts from the interview...

Why did you sign on for this show?
Lea Black: At the time I wasn't sure. And now, I think its become a phenomenon. I think Bravo has created a pop culture phenomenon. At first, I had trepidations about it... It didn't start out as a Housewives show. It kind evolved into one. And I guess, just live life and see what happens. Take your chances and go for it.

What kind of drama can we expect?
Lea: It's going to be fun above the belt drama. I think that Bravo is a master at creating fabulous reality television. I think what they have done is take the best of everything, and make it fun, exciting, and upbeat. There is quite a bit of drama, but I wouldn't say it's hair pulling, table flipping drama. I would say it is a different type of drama. People will be fascinated by the characters.

Is Lindsay Lohan doubly screwed after being busted for grand theft?

That's a possibility, given that she was on probation anyway for her DUI, and that her probation standing was shaky even before her recent felony arrest.

Lohan may avoid jail, but it's far from a lock. Even if the grand theft charges were dropped completely, a judge could revoke Lindsay's DUI probation.

The judge in the probation case can hold a hearing, sans jury, and has the sole power to decide if Lindsay ran afoul of her probation and take it away.

In a criminal case, the D.A. must prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. In a probation violation case, the judge has all the power and more leeway.

Sources connected with the D.A.'s office say prosecutors could ask for a year in jail if the judge decides Lindsay violated the terms of her probation.

Chances are, there's a case to be made that she has done so.

Judge Elden Fox in Beverly Hills, who's lost patience with Lohan and revoked her probation before, would be the one making the call too. Not good.

Jon Gosselin is just your average, blue-collar Joe these days.

These amazing pictures obtained by TMZ show the former reality slob on the job - installing solar panels on the roof of a storage building - earlier this week.

Guy was such a waste of space, it's nice to see him make the planet a nicer one with Green Pointe Energy, a Pennsylvania renewable energy company.

Guess that sales and marketing gig didn't pan out ...

GO HARD (HAT) OR GO HOME: Hey, at least he's got a job in this economy and gave up on the whole reality star thing. Give Jon credit on both fronts.

Michael Jackson has been dead for a year and a half, but has been raking in the cash since. We're talking hundreds of millions of dollars since June 2009.

According to legal documents, MJ had over $400 million in various debts when he passed, but his executors have been working furiously to retire them.

The singer's estate has made $310 million in the last 18 months, $159 million of which has already been used to pay debts, taxes and other expenses.

Running the King of Pop's life, even in death, is a formidable task.

In addition to creditors, the estate provides "uninterrupted support for Mrs. [Katherine] Jackson and Michael Jackson's children as Michael intended."

In addition to $400 million in debt,MJ's estate had $40 million in liabilities to AEG stemming from the "This Is It" tour, which he was readying for.

Obviously, he never made it on tour after his scared, sedated final days.

Charlie Sheen is hilarious. The guy has absolutely no remorse over any actions, joking in interviews this week about how much we should all praise him for doing such a stellar job while hungover.

But then we're forced to remember: the guy does have two young children. What must they think of their dad?

Denise Richards addressed this question during an appearance on The View that will air today. She said of her ex-husband:

"There are times where his life is more colorful than others, more public than others, and as the kids get older it's a difficult thing... this was a subject I had hoped to talk with my children about as they got older. But it's hard."

Hey, that's what Kacey Jordan said!

But, seriously, how does Richards explain Sheen's problems to Sam, 6, and Lola, 5? She says she uses books.

"There are images and pictures that a child can understand. I don't know what they fully comprehend from these conversations. They don't know what some of these things are. So I do the best I can and it's not easy."

Darn you, Charlie Sheen! You've actually made us feel sorry for Denise Richards.

Maksim Chmerkovskiy turned down The Bachelor in the U.S., but has assumed the leading role in the version of the hit show in his native Ukraine.

The Dancing With the Stars hunk is the star of the inaugural edition of the romance reality series beginning March 17 on the Ukraine's STB network.

Why did he turn it down here - as did Chris Lambton, which ultimately gave us Brad Womack for a second time - but agree to it in Eastern Europe?

Maksim Chmerkovskiy: The Bachelor!

"There has never been a show such as this in Ukraine," he wrote on his blog. "That makes me think that a first season would be the most 'real.'"

"I thought about everything VERY long. I know it's hard to find somebody you can connect to on a TV project like this, but nothing is impossible."

"I can't reveal anything, but I am very pleasantly surprised so far."

Before American Idol picked up and took its show to Las Vegas - where contestants will be challenged by The Beatles next week - the show narrowed its numbers of contestants from 100 to 60.

Which hopefuls separated themselves from the pack, at least for one week?

Below, we've posted videos of such impressive talents as Lauren Alaina, Chris Medina, Thia Megia, Colton Dixon, Robbie Rosen and Brett Loewenstern. Sit back, give each one a listen and choose an early favorite...

Lauren Alaina - I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing

In the aftermath of Sammi's exit from Jersey Shore last week, Ronnie was down in the dumps. The rest of the gang seemed focused more on absurd pranks.

Despite the title, "The Great Depression" was lighter fare than more recent episodes, with fewer epic meltdowns and more bathroom humor - quite literally.

As always, THG has broken down some of the top Jersey Shore quotes and scenes from the episode in our trademark +/- recap below. Let's get to it:

THAT'S JUST WRONG: Pauly's discovery was dirty even by JS standards.

Right off the bat for using the show to pitch Britney Spears' new music video. Videos, on MTV? What a concept! Plus 5 in hopes that this pattern continues.

Despite being enraged every second she's around, Ronnie mopes now that Sammi's gone, whining non-stop in an all-out effort to grow a vagina. Minus 19.

Seriously, Jenni could take Ronnie. You can see the disgust on her face. Plus 4.

Sammi breaks down at home. Minus 10 for not making this a Sammi-free week, 'cause she'll be back wearing her one white skirt/black top outfit in no time.
