Jordin Sparks Is ‘Blessed’ With Her ‘Great Guy’ Sage The Gemini – The “Double Tap” singer has been igniting dating rumors as of late, posting adorable pics of herself alongside rapper Sage The Gemini [real name: Dominic Wynn Woods]. “It’s going great,” Jordin said. “He’s a great guy, he’s a very, very great guy, and I’m very blessed to know him.” In fact, Sage even has Jordin a little tongue-tied, because when I commented about just how cute he is, she couldn’t help but blush. “He’s so cute, I can’t talk about it,” she said while laughing. “Guys, I’m sweating…”

Survivor host Jeff Probst weighs in on all the ugliness from men toward women this season – JEFF PROBST: One of the key elements in the premise of Survivor is that the game is to be played with people from various walks of life. In a perfect world, it’s a tapestry of people from different parts of the country, raised with different religious and political beliefs, with a range of IQ’s and physical abilities.

Shirin from Survivor reacts to ‘misguided, cruel, pathetic’ personal attacks – To say Shirin Oskooi had a rough go of it on Survivor: Worlds Apart would be an understatement.

No wonder she now says she’s “actually thrilled to be away from such horrible people.” – Read more at Entertainment Weekly
