Yesterday we found out that Nadya Suleman, the Whittier mother who gave birth to octuplets last week, hired a public relations firm to deal with all the national media attention the family has been getting. And it didn't take long for Joanne Killeen, who only met Suleman on Friday, to appear on Larry King. Here's the most interesting part of the interview (full transcript is below the jump):

Tonight at 6pm, Adam McKay will talk to Larry King about the new Funny or Die video featuring Paris Hilton. In the 24 hours since the Paris for President video premiered, it has been viewed more than 4 million times. Tonight on Larry King Live we can find out how it all went down. You can see it for yourself right here.

            

The corner of Sunset and Cahuenga in Hollywood was officially renamed Larry King Square by the City of Los Angeles yesterday. City Council President Eric Garcetti introduced the 74 year old broadcast journalist and talk show host after honoring him with accolades of his accomplishments in his field. This year marks the 50th anniversary of his professional journalism career.

You've seen them around the city, right? Those light beige signs designating an area as a historical square. There's Amelia Earhart Square in the NoHo Arts District and the "I Love Lucy Square" near Paramount Studios. Now, after being approved last year, Larry King is getting his officially designated this Thursday at the intersection of Sunset and Cahuenga boulevards where the CNN building is located.

Now that the writers' strike is over and it's full-steam ahead with the Oscars, you can bet that just about every TV channel is going to dogpile on the gala event. Yeah, the Grammys went ahead without interference but the Grammys are nothing compared to the Oscars. E! and CNN already have several shows lined up (look for Oscar host, Jon Stewart, on Larry King this Wednesday night) ready to tackle the exciting topics of: what will be in the gift bags? Who is Prince going to have perform at his Oscar bash? Where do the stars detox before and after the Oscars? etc.

No deal in the writer's strike before Xmas folks, so we might just have to entertain ourselves. Monday's looking sparse - oh wait, was I supposed to highlight dreck like K-Ville, Samantha Who?, and Deal or No Deal? No thanks. 6:00pm Larry King Live CNN - Relatively new Los Angelino Victoria "Posh Spice" Beckham is the interviewee today. Will there be more talk about her hubbie's giant schlong? Or about how she sleeps naked with...

Say what you will about Larry King (he's old, he gets married too much, he's not flashy, he's not hip) but the old fart sure has kept himself in the news lately. Last week, if you recall, he "ambushed" Marie Osmond by revealing to his tv audience that her son was in rehab (which led to much drama and Osmond-family-signs-of-support), and yesterday Larry had the infamous plastic surgeon Dr. Jan Adams walk off his...

This may be the first time anyone has ever heard me say this, but last night the Dodgers lost and I still feel like a winner. My sheer joy was a gift from a generous benefactor who will be referred to as JC, not only because those are his initials but also because he is now holier than Christ himself. JC hooked us up with seats in the Dugout Club, which is where I...

Paris Hilton went on Larry King last night. It was her first tee vee interview after spending twentysomething days in the slammer. Before the interview Paris said that jail had changed her for the better. During the interview she told Larry that she had never done drugs. King: "Ever taken drugs?" Hilton: "No." Unfortunately Paris must had forgotten about all of those videos that came out last year on the ParisExposed.com website that showed...

A Word or 46: Boy what a hubbub over this American Idol dreck - didn't the show producers see what a joke Howard Stern made of People magazine's "Most Beautiful People" contest back in '98?

A Word or 52: Some people hated last week's "useless" Lost because it didn't further the storyline but I thought it was a humorously macabre and welcome break that reminded me of some of the better tangential X-Files episodes from 10+ years ago.

A Word or 73: Was sad to learn of the death of Larry "Bud" Melman aka Calvert DeForest who spent over 20 years as a regular on David Letterman's shows - always able to suffer indignities and deal with situations that exceeded Punk'd and Jackass in terms of humor and sophistication by decades.
