Sure, Mya and Dmitry Chaplin grabbed a perfect 30 with their '70s-themed samba on last night's Dancing With the Stars, but the singer says Donny Osmond was the real star of the night.

"Donny and Kym Johnson rocked the house," Mya told me earlier this morning. "It was hilarious with Donny and his Jheri curl. He was like Michael Jackson, George Michael, Prince and Boy George all wrapped up in one."

But Chaplin's mustache also made quite the impression. Read on for more of this week's installment of my exclusive morning-after chats with Ms. Mya…

Mya and Dmitry Chaplin knew going into last night's Dancing With the Stars that they probably wouldn't be getting a perfect 30 for their jitterbug.

They correctly predicted that judge Len Goodman would have a problem with Mya's feather-dusting and Dmitry's sweeping at the start of their performance.

"We were like, 'Oh, well!' " Mya told me this morning during our weekly exclusive morning-after chat. "Last week they said we lacked character, so this week we gave them characters. It was, Let's do a little bit of acting for the audience and people at home."

That's not all I have for you from Ms. Mya. Read on to find out why Dmitry is in pain, what's it like meeting Michael Jackson's mother and why the group dance-off at the end of the show almost left Mya hurlin' her cookies.

Sheryl Crow has no plans to go under the knife.

"When you shoot your face with Botox and stuff, you rob yourself of your ability to have youthful expressions, and that's why sometimes people look a lot older," Crow tells Health magazine.

Despite some toughs time in recent years (in 2006, Crow split from her fiancé Lance Armstrong and then successfully battled breast cancer), the rock star says she feels better than ever ...

Allen remembered spending time at the legendary estate with her kids...

Another day, another breakup rumor for Janet Jackson and Jermaine Dupri.

US Weekly reported this morning that the couple has split after almost seven years together because they are "polar opposites [who] were never too compatible." Jackson is shy and private, while Dupri is a gregarious charmer who loves to be out and about.

Buzz that the relationship had taken a recent dive began circulating after Dupri was a no-show at Michael Jackson's memorial service...

No doubt there's going to be a big blowout tribute to Michael Jackson at the MTV Video Music Awards in September.

No details have been solidified just yet, but I'm sure Madonna is at the top of the producers' wish list to take part.

Should Neverland be turned into Michael Jackson's Graceland? Should the King of Pop be buried at his former estate?

I don't think so. Find out why by clicking my videoblog above.

Yes, Paris Jackson loves her dad. Yes, she misses him.

When I posted yesterday about Jackson family members insisting the young 11-year-old talk on stage at her father's Staples Center memorial service, I never doubted what she said was real and coming from the heart.

All I reported was that there are questions about whether Paris wanted to be so public about how she felt. Many readers trashed me for "attacking" Paris. I don't think I did.

No doubt Paris Jackson loves and misses her King of Pop papa, but did she really want to tell the world how she felt at Tuesday's memorial service?

A source tells me that the 11-year-old Paris was seen—and heard—backstage at the Staples Center telling family members that she did not want to make such a public statement.

I awoke at 4:30 a.m. today. I had to get Downtown to the Staples Center for the Michael Jackson Memorial Service. Despite continuous warnings that the area would be a madhouse, it wasn't. Everything was calm when I arrived at about 6 and continued that way through the service.

My most memorable moment? Yes, Paris' emotional tribute to her Daddy. But I must give a shoutout to Brooke Shields. She did a beautiful job making everyone realize that Michael was a friend who loved to laugh. Who doesn't have a friend like that?

I, of course, was tweeting to give folks up-to-the-second details of what was going down. Read on for some of the highlights…
