TVGuide caught up with Rachel to talk about her recent stint on The Bold and the Beautiful, what her and Brendon are being for Halloween… and why they didn’t get married “that weekend.”

TV Guide Magazine: What’s with all the B&B love? This is your 10^th appearance!
Reilly: I know! Isn’t it crazy? [Laughs] And this time I’m a bride! Brendon and I are part of the Halloween shows so they put us in wedding outfits, which of course I loved! We’re getting Bikini Beach ready for a party. Amber [Adrienne Frantz] is there flirting with Thorne [Winsor Harmon]. The costumes and makeup are so fantastic you’re going to be shocked! We have swamp creatures, pirates, gypsies, mermaids, fairies, geishas. I was a cocktail waitress in Vegas for years and this trumps any Halloween party I ever worked there. It really inspired me for real life.

TV Guide Magazine: So spill it. How are you and Brendon dressing for Halloween?
Reilly: We’re going as Jessica and Roger Rabbit!

TV Guide Magazine: Well, you’ve already got the hair and the bod!
Reilly: [Laughs] Exactly! I’m almost there!

TV Guide Magazine: Just after you won the half mill you told a TMZ crew you were eloping in Vegas that coming weekend. It never happened. How come?
Reilly: That was horrible and I blame it totally on me! It was the night of the Big Brother after party and Brendon and I had a few drinks and it seemed like a good idea at the time. Of course, my mom saw it. She called up and said, “You are not getting married this weekend, young lady!”

TV Guide Magazine: Then what are your “I do” plans?
Reilly: We’re looking at venues for December or January and I think I’ve found the dress. Now that I have this extra money I can buy the dream wedding I’ve always wanted! [Laughs] With lots of sequins!

TV Guide Magazine: Any truth to reports you’re shopping a reality show about the big day?
Reilly: It’s just a rumor. [Laughs] And I didn’t start that one! No, I’m not shopping a show but if it were to happen it’d be awesome. I don’t know if Brendon could handle it but I won’t lie. I would never turn it down.

After months of “scandal” Big Brother 12′s Rachel Reilly and Brendon Villegas announced that they were engaged yesterday (yes to each other). Today, after getting her nails done, Rachel tweeted the much anticipated engagement ring!

Today Julie and the ladies of The Talk recieved some good news – they’re renewed for a second season!!

We love this show so much. Julie is so amazingly flawless and kicks major ass – if you haven’t watched, you MUST!

Love Auntie Julie. LOVE. The Hollywood Reporter has the details…

CBS has renewed the daytime chat-fest The Talk for another season.

The network announced the pickup Wednesday after several strong week’s of ratings. The morning talker is averaging 2.2 million viewers since it premiered last fall.

The show — an answer to ABC’s long-running The View — is hosted by CBS News’ Julie Chen, Sara Gilbert, Sharon Osbourne, Holly Robinson Peete and Leah Remini. Marissa Jaret Winokur left the show after only a few months.

“After only a few months on the air, The Talk has delivered creative and ratings growth and established a strong profile in daytime,” Nina Tassler, President, CBS Entertainment, said in a statement. “The co-hosts have clicked together, the topics have connected with the audience and the show has added a new dimension to our top-rated daytime line-up.  We’re excited about its current success and the potential to grow and evolve ‘The Talk’ even further.”

Added David Stapf, President of CBS Television Studios: “We’re proud that The Talk has emerged as a unique player in the daytime arena. The goal was always to create a show that offered different perspectives to issues facing families.  The show’s success is largely due to our hosts’ chemistry and we’re thrilled that the topics we are addressing are resonating with audiences.”

Oh gosh, y’all! It’s been such a long time since I’ve been here but life is just to busy for me – AND – I do all of this by myself. (Anyone interested in helping, give me a shout!) I do have a few cool things planned to tide us over until BB13 but those will come in the new year. Onto the post…

Sorry I never posted about the whole scandal but Brendon is trying to make up with Rachel by buying her a freakin star. TMZ has all the details…

Nothing says “I’m sorry” like naming a celestial object after the girl you cyber-cheated on — which is why bawl-my-eyes-out Brendon from “Big Brother” just threw down $109 to christen the star, “Rachel Reilly.”

According to the International Star Registry, Brendon got the appropriate paperwork in order this week — certifying the star’s new name — and even purchased a $70 bracelet with the star’s coordinates to sweeten the deal.

It’s not his first attempt at an apology  — as we previously reported, Brendon posted an “I’m sorry” video online recently … after his ex-GF and “Big Bro” co-star Rachel allegedly found out he sent pics of his schlong to a girl he met online.

No worries though — if the video didn’t cut it, a paper star certificate and bracelet definitely will do the trick.  Right?

Since Rachel was so quick to allegedly get back with Brendon, many BB fans have speculated that this was all to generate publicity for a BB13: All-Stars campaign. Thoughts?
