There had been questions about whether Cyrus would return to the series that made her a global star, with the teen actress-singer declaring her intention to continue her small-screen duties as Miley Stewart/Hannah Montana.

As part of the deal, Cyrus will get a long hiatus with production on the fourth season of “Hannah Montana” slated to begin next year. (Filming on the show’s third season wraps this week.)

The series will change settings next season, during which the Stewarts will grapple with saying goodbye to their beachfront Malibu home.

Tonight’s episode of the hit ABC Family series GREEK sees the return of  ALAN RUCK (FERRIS BULLER, SPIN CITY) as the obnoxious Dean Bowman. GREEK has proven to be a pretty solid performer for the network and when we spoke with star SPENCER GRAMMER over the week-end she gave us her thoughts on the popularity of the show. Listen in below:

Johnny Depp knows a little bit about living life under the media’s glare. So when he wants to get away, the star and his family head to Little Hall’s Bond Cay, Depp’s private, 45-acre island in the Bahamas.

“(The island) is my decompression,” Depp told the July issue of Vanity Fair magazine. “It’s my way of trying to return to normalcy … Escapism is survival to me.”

The beaches on Little Hall’s Bond Cay are named after Depp’s partner, Vanessa Paradis; their children, Lily and Jack; actor Marlon Brando; and gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson. But he also named one “Heath’s Place” after the late Australian actor Heath Ledger.

Before Steve Martin ever made a movie, he was an enormously successful stand-up comedian, who sold out amphitheaters and won Grammy Awards for two of his comedy albums.  We caught up with Martin (whose latest project is a bluegrass album, “The Crow - New Songs For The Five-String Banjo”) and asked him about those stand-up days, including whether he felt like he was breaking new ground with his late-’70s material.

Rumors of a Kim Kardashian-Reggie Bush engagement have been swirling for months now. So are the two love birds finally tying the knot? Read more and see photos and video here.

Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian is one smart woman. She knows that one day her boyfriend Reggie Bush WILL pop the question. So like any other intelligent woman, Kim is saving herself the headache and stress by picking out her own ring. And so, she’s ready to show her man the ring she wants.

Kardashian tells E! Online, “It’s just easier. Isn’t it easy if someone’s like, ‘This is exactly what I want.’ It’ll make your life so easy.”

Kim’s sisters Kourtney and Khloe are aware of the ring situation, just in case Bush asks them for advice on the ring selection. Let’s just hope Reggie has the funds. Kourtney tells E!, “She found one the other day and she was like, ‘It’s only $20 million.’ ”

Tonight sees the season premier of the NBC reality show, I’M A CELEBRITY…GET ME OUT OF HERE. STEPHEN BALDWIN, SANJAYA MALAKAR, JANICE DICKINSON and a handful of other ‘celebs’ find themselves stranded in a Costa Rican jungle and have to survive various (usually pretty gross) tasks. Born again Christian BALDWIN tells us that, while he doesn’t plan to convert the tribe, his ministry skills could come in handy. Listen in below:

We spoke with WILMER VALDERRAMA (THAT 70’s SHOW, HANDY MANNY) a couple of days ago and he talked a bit about the long-in-the-works plan for him to step into ERIC ESTRADA’S boots in a big screen remake of the popular 70’s TV show, CHiPS. Listen in below:

It’s been a little over three months since CONAN O’BRIEN left his post on LATE NIGHT and tonight marks his much anticipated transition to hosting THE TONIGHT SHOW. We spoke on the phone with O’BRIEN about the time leading up to the move and he wanted to make it clear that the last few months have been no vacation. (Click on the media bar below):

We spoke over the week-end with the stars of the upcoming ABC Family series 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU. It’s the adaptation of the 1999 film that starred the late HEATH LEDGER and introduces audiences to ETHAN PECK (grandson of the legendary GREGORY PECK). We asked PECK if he considered stepping into the role that made LEDGER famous was at all daunting. Listen in below:

Ten years after originating the role of Dr, Walter Stratford in the hit comedy, 10 THINGS I HATE ABOUT YOU, actor LARRY MILLER is returning to the role in the upcoming ABC Family series of the same name. Since the film is known primarily for introducing American audiences to HEATH LEDGER, we asked MILLER over the week-end if that might be a little too much baggage for a TV comedy to bear.
