BROUGHT TO YOU BY ONE HOUR HEATING & A/C!

JULIE CHEN TO STAY ON AS HOST OF BIG BROTHER: Despite stepping down as host of The Talk, Julie Chen is determined to remain on board at CBS’ Big Brother, TMZ reports. Chen relinquished her post at The Talk on Tuesday following her husband Les Moonves ouster from the network over sexual misconduct allegations. Insiders tell TMZ that CBS didn’t put any pressure on her to leave, but that she may have decided to because of the topicality of the show and the fact that her own story would likely be part of the content.

GLENN WEISS’ DAUGHTERS BLINDSIDED BY PROPOSAL: Director Glenn Weiss became the toast of the Emmys on Monday after he proposed to girlfriend Jan Svendsen during his acceptance speech. While several stars in attendance were visibly overjoyed (Jimmy Kimmel, Leslie Jones, Benedict Cumberbatch and Claire Foy), his daughters were blindsided by the shocker and as a result, less than delighted, Page Six reports. An insider tells Page Six, “He’s coming across as this great romantic hero, but it was pretty thoughtless.”

The 70th Primetime Emmy Awards were the “least-watched edition of the annual ceremony in modern history,” according to EW. Only 10.2 million viewers watched the ceremony Monday night.

Eddie Murphy has landed a role in an upcoming comedy inspired by Grumpy Old Men, the 1993 movie that starred Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau.

Screen icon Burt Reynolds left his son Quinton out of his will, but still made sure he’d get support. The will, obtained by TMZ, states: “I intentionally omit him from this, my Last Will and Testament, as I have provided for him during my lifetime in my Declaration of Trust.” Reynolds signed the will in 2011. He appointed his niece Nancy Lee Brown Hess as his personal representative for his estate, and then appointed his great nephew Brian Ritchey Brown and then his great niece Tracy Erin Rogers as next in line after Hess. Reynolds may have created the trust to avoid estate taxes. He died earlier this month at 82. Quinton was born in 1988 and is the adopted son of Reynolds and his ex-wife Loni Anderson.

AND FINALLY, TODAY’S CELEBRITY TWEET OF THE DAY. IT’S HARD NOT TO NOTICE THE SIMILARITY, ISN’T IT???
