Kristin Cavallari gives "Dancing With The Stars" partner Mark Ballas a peck on the cheek after practice.

After "Dancing With The Stars" standout Mark Ballas split with girlfriend Pia Toscano last week, the rumors that he and partner Kristin Cavallari were dating circulated about as quickly as the couple's feet during their impressive first routine on last week's episode. For K-Cav, though, the gossip wildfires are business as usual.

"I kind of expect [the dating rumors], to be honest," she told People. "But that's what happens when you put two people together."

It probably doesn't help that those two people gave the paps a clear shot of a lips-to-cheek farewell. Think there's any merit to the idea that she and he are them? Hard to say, but make sure to keep your eye on their body language during next week's episode, as we hear the quickstep is a total tell of a pair's chemistry. That and, you know, if they kiss in the parking lot again.

Glad we can put this one to rest! After successfully rekindling the friendship flame between Tamara and Jenna, Ming faced the unfortunate task of trying to explain what a "sex touch" was, a term she had used to lure J and T to the same place under false pretenses on "Awkward." Thankfully, Jessica Lu, who plays the perpetually ski-capped Ming, broke it down for us and now we...think...we know?

JWOWW also took to Twitter to clear the air about her bleeding feet--which are healed, thankfully, after they and she chased Jionni through the streets of Florence on "Jersey Shore." The "Hills" were alive with the sound of social media, as well, as Whitney Port alerted followers to how she fared during a trip to London, Kristin Cavallari explained the science behind her "Dancing With The Stars" glow and Spencer Pratt, a new USC student, revealed that he--for what we imagine is the first time ever--was the first student to class.

He was only in Italy for six hours before he decided to ditch his girlfriend during Episode 8 of "Jersey Shore," but that was apparently time enough for the great Jionni to take Twitter by storm, on which he, himself, was a trending topic until early Friday morning. Maybe he should consider throwing his jacket Snooki's way and storming out of clubs while still jet-lagged more often!

If Snionni's phone calls are considered, we can't say it's a huge surprise that Jionni made a splash when he finally touched down in Italy. And things looked like they were going well while he and Snooks caught up, hugged and kissed (and smushed). But when Snooki's dress went up, and Jionni's temper spiked, so did his popularity in the social media universe. Good or bad, here is what you had to say about the guy Snooks said she wanted to marry:

"Jionni had every right to walk out! Snooki gone get enough of acting like she run the world! #jerseyshore #jerzday" -- @QueenSharion

Every Friday we thumb through your comments from the most-talked-about post of the week and highlight each side of the argument. Check out the latest That's What You Said below and make sure to share your own opinion!

Farrah once carried unbreakable conviction that she and her daughter would never be separated. So, understandably, viewers were a little shocked when the teen mom decided to move to Florida without little Sophia on this week's finale. Further, Remote Control readers weren't sure exactly how to feel, and a recent poll asking if Farrah's choice was warranted or selfish was almost split down the middle. When therapy, a rocky family dynamic and school are involved, things aren't so black and white.

Because a simple "she should've" or "she shouldn't have" hardly does such a complicated topic justice, here's a glimpse into your take on whether Farrah should have left Sophia behind:

Remote Control:
"I think Farrah should stay in Iowa and get her degree elsewhere. Sophia is what matters now and not Farrah's own personal wants and desires. Sophia needs to be in a stable environment and not state-hopping." -- Missy

Ronnie and Sammi got a rude awakening during tonight's episode of "Jersey Shore" when they had the displeasure of witnessing another couple's PDAHI (Public Display of Hatred and Intoxication), and thus, experiencing its soul-sucking effects on all those in range. Boy did they feel shmucky. In fact, when Kenny Santucci asked the infamous Bedroom Destroyer in our latest "Jersey Shore Hook-up" how it felt to be on the other side of the relationship drama (direct quote: "Now do you really feel like an ass, like you should?"), all Ron could muster was a robotic nod and long-drawn-out expletive.

So now that we've all seen the kind of damage that SamRon and Snionni (Snooki+Jionni=Snionni) are capable of wreaking, we want to hear how you think the two couples' psycho-fighting stack up. Take the poll and then watch this clip from the "Hook-up," where Vinny offers up his own comparison, commenting that while Snionni's showdown was a onetime thing, easily avoidable by stepping out of the house for a gelato nightcap, "Ronnie and Sammi's s*** was always in your face...It always found it's way into your life somehow." A valid point, yet it's highly likely the customers in the gelato place could hear the high-pitched sobbing that Snooks unleashed--without pause--well into the morning.

It can be tough to gauge which of Snooki's inappropriate (yet wildly entertaining) antics will set off Jionni--he went unbothered by her Meatball Mashup in Riccione, yet prior to that snapped at her for belching over the phone. On tonight's episode of "Jersey Shore," however, there was no question about how he'd respond to seeing his girlfriend flash her koo-kah to the beat of a club remix. It was obvious he'd go postal, and indeed, he did so with great gumption.

After dodging Friar Ron's attempt at imparting wisdom (Lord knows the guy's got some experience with this sort of relationship drama) and taking a self-guided tour throughout the streets of Florence, Jionni returned to the cast palace, where he exacted his revenge using the sword of silence and abandonment--the words "I'm done, Sam Nicole!" were never actually uttered (or were they? you couldn't hear much over Snooki's wailing) as he recklessly packed his Affliction tees and fled the scene--though we imagine next week's episode will conjure many an ultimatum from his pouty gorilla lips.

Unfortunately, panic is bound to set in for Snooks once the morning light, not to mention the stink of Parliament Lights and regret, hit her Soco-soaked brains, and we're not sure she'll be capable of having a rational conversation with him.

It wasn't just the viewers that noticed Jionni had all the beef of a veggie burger with "The Situation" on tonight's "Jersey Shore." The experts (half of Mike's housemates) have weighed in, and it seems a case of complete paranoia was to blame for Sitch's sureness that Snooki's boyfriend was out to get him.

Mike's odd behavior commenced the moment Jionni arrived in Florence, Vinny says in the below clip from our latest "Jersey Shore Hook-up." After practicing a high kick or two, he repeatedly misinterpreted Jionni's friendly behavior as passive-aggressive mind games. You know, like when Mike convinced himself it was implicit warfare because Jionni kindly offered to share his food. Ronnie says Mike's "Sensei Situation" alter ego had been popping up since the kind-of-but-not-really fight between the two, and unfortunately, Jionni was forced bear the brunt of it.

Check out the video, in which Ron, Vinny Deena and JWOWW give some insider info on Mike's one-sided tension with Jionni, right after Jenni describes her devastation over Roger's canceled vacation and Vin admits his indifference toward the whole Snionni debacle.

The gorilla behind the disapproving long-distance phone calls finally showed his face on tonight's episode, but before Jionni touched down in Florence, Snooki and her "Jersey Shore" cohorts accomplished a lot! Not only did Team Meatball avoid getting deported after colliding with a police car, the girls were also successful at helping Jenni drown her sorrows over Roger's unbudging work schedule with a vineyard's worth of Chianti.

Snooks was understandably anxious as the seconds until her boyfriend came to town quickly ticked away (so much so that she was unable to lay down a habitual No. 2, she confessed to Deena). As Pauly pointed out, there was a whole lot the couple had to discuss. The last time Snooki brought up Mike's claim that she and "The Situation" had hooked up, Jionni didn't take it too well; plus, he'd only heard the bare-bones version of the Meatball Mashup. When the doorbell finally rang, though, and Nicole managed to put down her glass of nerve-calming wine, she and her juicehead celebrated the heartwarming moment with a hug, a tear or two and an immediate trip to the Smush Room.

Mike "The Miz" shoots daggers at the "Be A Star" SummerSlam kickoff in August.

Earlier this year, Mike "The Miz" Mizanin sat comfortably at No. 1 on Pro Wrestling Illustrated's 2011 ranking of all professional wrestlers. Now, he'll have to watch from the bleachers as Nos. 2 through 500 compete without him. The former "Challenge" extraordinaire has been FIRED from the WWE! Let's be honest, this arc might feature a vengeful clawing back into the league as early as next week (it is the WWE, after all), but still!

Mizanin was dramatically let go by WWE COO Triple H earlier this week after some pretty insolent behavior in the ring (see: roughing up a referee and beating up the boss man himself). While Triple H originally had an apologetic Miz convinced he was forgiven for his transgressions, he later released Mike in true humiliating fashion: in his Ohio hometown, and in front of his most tried-and-true fans. Not cool, guy. Not cool.

Check out The Miz's lowest low since getting voted off of "Battle of the Sexes 2." Think it's for real? Either way, it's kinda nice nice to see the ponytailed head honcho get a retaliatory roughing up.

Earlier in the week we introduced you to the female cast of "Real World: San Diego," and we can't imagine the lineup disappointed. Today we're bringing you the details on the other half of the house--the fellas--and counting on y'all to share your uncensored (well, to a certain degree) opinions. Have a go at it:

Frank: It's often the ones that are listed as being attracted to both "chicks and dudes" that have the best time in the "Real World" house, and that's what we're expecting from this New York native. Raised upstate and educated at Middlebury College, the superstar athlete is overflowing with raw emotion, which means--let's all say it together--DRAMA! If you're still not convinced he's going to bring some action to the table, just read this quote from his MTV.com bio: "Frank believes that a night without blacking out is not enough fun."

Nate
Don't let the baby blue eyes fool you...cuz Nate's already wooed 50-plus women (and counting!) to his bed. Well, according to him. This former frat boy may have moved off campus, but he has yet to say goodbye to his college ways--he still parties like it's his job. Still, Nate's not a one-dimensional dude; he's very focused. Not only did he receive a degree in nuclear engineering, but he's also involved in suicide prevention campaigns. So which side of Nate will we meet first? The "womanizer" or the brainy do-gooder? Our money's on the former.
