Jim Bellino and Elizabeth Vargas caused a stir over the weekend after a photo showed them on a date together, but chances are there won’t be a second one.
According to claims, the Real Housewives of Orange County alum contacted Alexis Bellino’s ex-husband via Dm and asked him out on a date.
The Og of the Oc, Vicki Gunvalson, recently discussed that on the latest episode of her podcast and noted that it was a mixup to begin with.
Reportedly, Jim did not know of Elizabeth’s short-live solo season on the franchise.
When the name popped up, he assumed he was talking to another Elizabeth Vargas — the television news journalist.
Upon arrival, he promptly discovered that he was not meeting the brunette beauty, but her namesake with an Rhoc connection.

Busted have announced a greatest hits reunion tour to celebrate their 20th anniversary.
On Thursday (23 March), the band posted a video on Instagram informing fans that they are back for a special anniversary tour.
“Busted is back,” they wrote in the caption for the video, before informing fans that tickets will go on sale from Friday 31 March.
The British boy band were hugely famous in the noughties for pop-punk hits such as “Year 3000”, “What I Go To School For” and “Crashed The Wedding”.
The group, consisting of Charlie Simpson, Matt Willis and James Bourne, were teens in Busted’s early days, and are now in their late 30s.
Although they may not have been together as Busted for a while, the group members have been very busy for the last 20 years.
So what exactly have Busted been up to for the last two decades?

Gareth Gates will star in a new run of the musical Loserville from tomorrow. The play is written by ex-Busted member James Bourne and theatre composer Elliot Davis. It is based on a number of songs by Bourne's second band Son of Dork. "To my ears, the songs were like compact, three-minute dramas," Davis told The Guardian. "I heard all these characters and narratives and said, 'Have you ever considered turning this into a musical?'" Bourne explained: "It was never really in my sights. But I was at a crossroads with my career. My band had split up, we'd been dropped by the label. And I just wasn't ready for that at all. I still felt hungry. "One thing I knew for certain was that it wouldn't be a thrown-together, jukebox musical. If a song on the album didn't fit the storyline, we ditched (more)...

Charlie Simpson has admitted that he has no plans to reunite with his old band Busted. Reports surfaced last year of a possible reunion after promoters offered the band £1 million to reform. However, Simpson's reluctance was said to be holding back the plans for fellow members Matt Willis and James Bourne. Speaking to the The Mail on Sunday, Simpson said: "I read that I was going to be part of a Busted reunion, but that won't happen in a million years. The other two might do something, but I'm not involved. The strange thing was that I was a member of Busted in the first place. "That was something I fell into.

Following his fall last weekend while performing an “energetic” Ghostbusters dance routine, Edward – one half of twin brother act Jedward – reassured fans on Friday that was “Ok.”
After wincing in pain, Edward apparently told fans at the Big Friday Concert in Ipswich that he didn’t want to “disappoint” them.
He hobbled on stage using crutches and told the concert goers, “I am Ok. It’s no big deal…
“I am getting surgery next week. I didn’t want to disappoint you.”
At one point, Edward clambered onto brother John’s back for a “piggy back”, much to the delight of fans.

Boyband Busted are reportedly set to search for a new frontman via a reality TV show.
Matt Willis and James Bourne had hoped to reunite the old band but Charlie Simpson is said to prefer his new group ‘Fightstar.’
A source told The Sun: “Matt and James are determined to get the band back together but have realised there is no way to change Charlie’s mind.
“So instead they are planning a reality TV show. It will be a documentary following them up and down the UK in their search for a third man.
“The series will then climax with a live arena event, which fans will be able to buy tickets for. If the show sparks enough interest they’ll take themselves out on a wider UK tour.”
Busted, whose hits included Year 3000 an That’s What I Go To School For, split in 2005 after Charlie left.

Former X Factor contestants John and Edward Grimes are reported to be the second highest paid acts from this year’s ITV series.
The News of The World reports that Jedward are commanding £40,000 per gig, a figure only beaten by X Factor winner Joe McElderry who is worth £50,000 per show. Runners up Olly Murs and Stacey Solomon receive £7,500 and £5,000 respectively.
A source told the newspaper: “These figures prove this year’s real sensations are Jedward. They’ll end up making a truckload more than those others.”
“The X Factor was all about Jedward this year. The winner is always looked after financially but there are no guarantees for second, third and fourth place.
“Jedward are in a plum position because they’re being looked after by judge Louis Walsh who wants to make them a lot of money – and make sure they’re in a position to keep making money in the future.

X Factor twins John & Edward Grimes have reportedly landed their own ITV2 reality show.
The show will run for three months and follow the boys as they move on from the X Factor and pursue a career in music.
A source told the newspaper: “The boys have been swamped with offers. It has been a case of turning most things down, including I’m A Celebrity….
“The show will be the same glossy format as Jordan and Peter’s, following their crazy antics day-to-day.”
The deal will reportedly mean that the boys are forced to turn down an offer to appear in Celebrity Big Brother, because of a clash of filming schedules.

X Factor twins John & Edward Grimes have admitted that they hope to release an original song as their debut single.
The boys are predicted to sign a record deal with Sony early in 2010 and say that they want to release a ‘proper song’ that’s ‘different to everything else.’
“I would like to release a song that’s not kind of this fad song that everyone’s gonna say, ‘Oh it’s John & Edward, they’re coming out with a song because there’s all this hype about The X Factor’,” John told the Daily Star.
“We need to do a proper song and it’s about having a song that’s different to everything else in the rest of the world.
“Everyone is writing about the same thing, like girls and love. We want something that is completely outside of the box, that no-one else is thinking of, because...

John and Edward Grimes have reportedly been offered €300,000 to appear on next year’s series of Celebrity Big Brother. The twins caused controversy on this year’s X Factor, mostly because they can’t actually sing and it is supposed to be a singing competition!
An insider told the Irish Herald newspaper: “The first TV deal that they take is really crucial as it will literally make or break them in terms of their career so they have to be cautious about what they agree to do.
“Some of the things they’ve been offered would turn them into total laughing stocks, but Celebrity Big Brother is definitely a possibility.
“They’re both so energetic and have such big personalities, they would be a great addition to a celebrity line-up.”
Celebrity Big Brother returns January 3rd.

Former Busted singer James Bourne has admitted that he wants to write some songs for John & Edward Grimes, when they leave X Factor.
“I wanna write a smash for Jedward,” he wrote on Twitter. “Jedward if you read this come write with me!

From the twisted mind and sexy ass of famous horror author Joe Knetter comes another twisted tale of love, loss, and gore-soaked grue. Think you have the stomach for it?
It didn’t take long for the pills to kick in. Danny passed out first. One minute he was going on about the bitches shaking their ass on TV. The next minute his head was hanging over the back of the couch, his mouth wide open, drool leaking to the floor. Eddie was going to be different. Based on his size I had tripled the dose.
“Hey Fucker. Wake up.” Eddie yelled throwing his empty can of beer at his friend.
“Jesus Christ what a pussy”, Eddie said sighing before he turned to me. “Hey Larra, why don’t you go get me another fucking beer ... and while your up make me a fucking sandwich. And not peanut butter. A...
