...riveting scene near the end of the movie - with Mary, Precious and a social worker played by a makeup-free Mariah Carey (who should work for Daniels every chance she gets) - is as powerful as anything on film this year. (Look for other stealth casting, including Lenny Kravitz and Sherri Shepherd.) Because Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry are executive producers, you might expect the sort of classic inspirational arc they both favor. But Winfrey and Perry aren't the creative forces behind the movie. They're just getting the word out, and Precious is not so much...
...first week as co-host of the ABC talk show The View, Sherri Shepherd declared that she didn't believe in evolution. When co-host Whoopi Goldberg pressed her to say whether she thought the world was flat, Shepherd responded, "I don't know ... I've never thought about it."

It's not like you're out there clubbing and getting with all kinds of men to have a good time. You're working...
...that you're promoting your book, working on The View and working on your Lifetime sitcom Sherri, how do you manage? Elisabeth Hasselbeck said, "Sherri, you're going to have a lot of spinning plates. Just make sure your child is not one of them." My first assignment on this earth is being a mother, so if anything conflicts with that or takes away from it, I say no, which is why I'm not on Dancing with the Stars learning the quickstep...
