Denise Richards dished about the paparazzi, motherhood and being an active animal lover to our Brooke Anderson over this Mother's Day weekend. We caught up with the former Mrs. Sheen as she was hosting the Nintendogs and Cats Event in Beverly Hills.
Opening up about protecting her daughters Sam and Lola Rose, Denise told us, "You know sometimes the paparazzi get difficult but they are also very respectful if I ask them certain things not to ask. The hard thing is they would try to ask questions about their dad in front of them...(my kids) are in an age where they can hear things. So that part is hard." She continues, "a lot of people say they don't look happy in paparazzi pictures, which they don't, but they don't like getting their picture taken!"
How does Denise handle the challenge of balancing a career and being a single mother in Hollywood? "You just do. I don't think of anything as really balanced. I kind of think of it as organized chaos. It's keeping a very harmonious home in the midst of all the chaos is all I hope for, but it's basically just prioritizing."
Denise is also releasing a book this summer titled, "The Real Girl Next Door," and you may be surprised to find out that it's, "not a solicitous tell-all," but more inspirational. She continues, "I went through so much in a real short period of time and I was at my rock bottom and want to give anyone that is in the situation I was in, or something similar, hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel." Denise got hit with a trifecta of problems, "a lot of people relate to divorce and death and career, losing your job. I had all three happen at once. It was really hard, but I got through it and it definitely made me stronger."
The weekend event was far from somber though. Denise was so, "flattered and honored that they asked me to host. A lot of people know that I am a huge animal lover and do a lot of rescue work so I was glad they reached out." Just don't ask her how many dogs she is currently caring for. " I am renting a home while I remodel and I don't think my landlord knows how many I have so I don't really want to put that out there."
It's down to the final five couples on "Dancing with the Stars", and The Insider's Brooke Anderson was behind the scenes with the youngest pair of the season, Romeo and Chelsie Hightower, as they put in some rehearsal time for tonight's show.
Despite a grueling 45 hour a week rehearsal schedule, the two were in good spirits, Romeo especially grateful for making it to the top five of the show's 12th season.
"I'm just grateful to still be here. I never thought I would've been here eight weeks," Romeo says. "It definitely shows that anything is possible with hard work, and I have a great teacher."
Speaking of Chelsie, Romeo adds, "I'm not complaining [about the hours of dance practice], you know, I want to win this thing for her. I think she deserves that trophy."
In addition to competing on this season's "Dancing with the Stars," Romeo is also promoting his film 'Jumping the Broom', out now.
"Just don't sleep," Romeo laughs, when asked about how he juggles his time. "My favorite quote now is 'sleep when you're dead,'" he jokes.
And although he shares that eliminating a dancing duo every week is like "losing a family member", it doesn't stop him from showing our cameras his competitive edge.
"I love you Kirstie [Alley], but I'm coming for you," Romeo smiles.
Check out our backstage footage of "Team RomeTower" rehearsing for tonight's "Dancing with the Stars".
The stars made themselves known over the weekend and we have all the fun footage in this Paparazzi Roundup.

It seems there's no love lost between Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul.
Just moments after it was confirmed that Paula will in fact be a judge on "The X Factor" alongside Simon, "L.A." Reid and Cheryl Cole, the two were seen hugging and kissing as they both arrived at The X Factor Premiere in Los Angeles. An affectionate Paula even wrapped a leg around Simon, as she held his face with both hands.
But their love-hate relationship quickly went back into its old routine, as Simon couldn't resist teasing Paula by calling her name like a dog.
Check out their sweet reunion caught on camera.
The Insider.com takes you behind the scenes for Nicole Scherzinger and rapper 50 Cent's new music video for Nicole's single "Right There."
The single is to be released in the U.S. this summer off Nicole's newest album, Killer Love. The hip-shaking video features a scantily clad Nicole dancing in a variety of locations from clubs to an empty aqueduct from with a bevy of gorgeous gals and 50 Cent.
The Pussycat Doll and "Dancing with the Stars" champion said collaborating with 50 Cent made all the difference on this project. "Man, when I heard 50 on it, it just sounded like a classic record to me and I was like 'This is beautiful. This is something special and the song is, the song feels really good."
Nicole, who was named over the weekend as a host of Simon Cowell's upcoming competition show "The X Factor," is pleased with the new record. "This is the perfect first single for me because it's not trying too hard, it feels really good, the song. I love the tempo, I love the feel, the vibe, and it's got this really great island rhythm to it," says the singer, whose roots stem from Hawaii, Ukraine and the Philippines.
Watch the video to get a glimpse of Nicole's kick-ass dance moves and to see what tricks were used during the filming.
When it was announced that Tina Fey would be hosting "SNL," many were wondering "will she or won't she" step back into the Palin power suit. This weekend, she answered those questions with a resounding "yes" in a hilarious reprisal of her infamous parody of the former vice-presidential candidate.
The sketch depicts Sarah Palin in an undeclared Republican candidate debate for the 2012 presidential election which has her head to head with Donald Trump, played by "SNL" alum Darrell Hammond.
Fey, as Palin, pokes fun at Sarah's feud with Katie Couric, as well as the surprising announcement that she has a cameo in 'The Hangover 3.'
Watch the video to catch Tina Fey bring on the laughs, and don't miss an all-new "Saturday Night Live," next Saturday on NBC.
Back on May 9th, 2001, Destiny's Child was filming the video for their hit song "Bootylicious."
The girls teamed up with Stevie Nicks, of Fleetwood Mac fame, for the video. A sample of Nicks' song "Edge of Seventeen" served as the beat for "Bootylicious," and Nicks appeared in the video playing guitar to the sampled music.
Talking about asking Nicks to be a part of their video, the singers thought it wouldn't be possible originally. "We were a little scared. Before we met her, we were scared, but when she walked in she was so warm it was like, you've got to do our video," singer Beyonce Knowles said.
Check out the video for an interview with Destiny's Child and behind-the-scenes footage from this classic music video.

"The Insider"'s Christina McLarty got in the middle of all the madness at the Disneyland premiere of 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides' where Johnny Depp was hauled away from our red carpet interview.
Johnny tried his best to answer Christina's questions, but was dragged away by associates on both sides.
The Golden Globe winner dons his red bandanna and eye shadow for the fourth time, playing Captain Jack Sparrow in 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.' But this time Jack is after a bigger prize than the heart of Davy Jones or a chest of gold coins. Now Jack has set his sights on the Fountain of Youth.
Penelope Cruz joined Johnny on this newest installment of the 'Pirates' franchise and gave hints toward another addition to the sequel.
"I will go to the end of the world with Rob [Marshall] and Johnny," Penelope said after admitting that she doesn't "know anything about the fifth." "I hope I can work with them many more times."
Tony Dovolani appeared at the premiere professing his love of the 'Pirates' movies but soon transitioned to the current developments surrounding "Dancing with the Stars."
Last week, "Dancing" contestant Hines Ward had a run-in with the law after a mix up concerning a car that was reported stolen.
"It was interesting because of course I can't wait to razz him about it," said Toni. "He should dance to 'Bad Boys' in the finale."

Brooke Anderson recently joined "The Insider" family as co-host and her first assignment was covering one of the most highly anticipated movies of the year - 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.'
Johnny Depp dons his red bandanna and eye shadow for the fourth time, playing Captain Jack Sparrow in 'Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides.' But this time Jack is after a bigger prize than the heart of Davy Jones or a chest of gold coins. Now Jack has set his sights on the Fountain of Youth.
Depp admitted that he ultimately does "the work" for his kids and Brooke wondered how long he might play the role of Captain Jack.
"I would do it for as long as the stories and the scripts and the filmmakers can shape it into something very fun, fresh, different, new each time out of the gate," Depp said.
Penelope Cruz joins Depp in this latest installation of the franchise as a seductive woman from Jack's past, and she dished that the shooting locations was what she enjoyed the most about making the film.
"In Hawaii we spent three months," said Cruz. "Then we came to L.A. and they built one beach in L.A. at Universal studios. When they told me I thought it was my English, that I didn't understand what they said, then I went there and I saw a beach inside the studio."

German beauty Diane Kruger is a relative newcomer to Hollywood, but you'd never guess it by the way she continues to dominate the fashion scene with her classic, elegant and daring style.
Let's rewind the clock on Diane, and check out a few of her best and worst red carpet moments!
Charlie Sheen made a appearance last night with girlfriend Natalie Kenly at the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation Gala in Los Angeles, and in speaking with The Insider, he admits he would like to set a few things straight regarding his much-talked-about "Violent Torpedo of Truth Tour" as well as his very public family troubles of late.
Charlie conceded to mistakes in the marketing, believing that if he had "let people know ahead of time what the show is," the fans wouldn't have created an inflated idea "that [he] was going to come out there and explode in a fireball of cash and hot women." He is certain that a major component of the tour's overwhelmingly poor feedback had everything to do with a misunderstanding of the show coming into it.
Friend and former New York Mets player, Todd Zeile says he invited Sheen to the event because "a lot of people don't realize the kind of generosity he has," and that Charlie's charity often goes unnoticed.
As for his charity work with Sean Penn, Charlie says they "talked about that before [he] went on tour," and their work to help the less fortunate will resume as "soon as [he] can get back in touch with Sean."
Despite appearances of a rocky public relationship with father Martin, Charlie insists that he is "doing great" and that he and his father have "been speaking quite a bit lately." He also adds that both he and girlfriend Natalie have frequent contact with twin sons Bob and Max and will, in fact, be seeing them tomorrow.
May 6, 1996 was another milestone night in the epic career of Clint Eastwood as the actor/director was honored by the Lincoln Center for his contributions to the film industry.
On the red carpet, Eastwood talked about his upcoming projects: 'Absolute Power' with Gene Hackman in which Eastwood acted and directed the film, and 'Midnight In The Garden of Good and Evil' which Eastwood only served as director.
Eastwood was joined at the event by Liam Neeson, who co-starred with Eastwood in 'The Dead Pool,' and Donald Sutherland who co-starred with Eastwood in the World War II comedy 'Kelly’s Heroes.'
Check out the video to see this special night in Eastwood's career.

On Thursday's "American Idol," Jennifer Lopez cranked the energy level up for her glass-shattering performance of "On the Floor." She stepped out from behind the judging panel's desk to take the stage.
Watch her high-impact dance routine with special guest vocals by Pitbull. Fellow judge Steven Tyler told Billboard earlier this week that he'll also take his turn in the "Idol" spotlight when band Aerosmith rocks out on the season finale.
Jacob Lusk's lucky streak has ended. Being in the bottom group on the "American Idol" results show was familiar territory for the high-pitched singer.
With tears rolling down her cheeks, a fearful Lauren Alaina stood next to a more complacent Jacob when the verdict was announced. After 60 million votes were cast, Jacob was eliminated, leaving a solid quartet to outsing one another for the "American Idol" title.
Watch the video for his final solo performance on the "Idol" stage and tune in to Fox next Wednesday to hear the remaining contestants sing to impress.

Khloe Kardashian and her husband Lamar Odom launched their unisex fragrance in February, naming it Unbreakable, but we have clips of their broken lines of communication while choosing the new scent.
Khloe's frustration with Lamar became apparent when the Los Angeles Laker seemed to dismiss every aroma without a reasonable explanation.
"Use your words," said Khloe. "You just have to be a little more articulate or something."
"I'm almost offended that you said articulate," Lamar shot back.
Later, Khloe's best friend Malika Haqq and her boyfriend, Chicago Bull Rasual Butler, have their relationship issues rise to the surface when Rasual suspects that Malika's history with Rob Kardashian may have been more than platonic.
"Have you ever dealt with each other?" Rasual asked Malika.
"No, he's my baby but it's not like that," Malika assured.
Watch how the drama unfolds on "Khloe & Lamar" Sunday at 10 p.m./9c on E!

Only a few more days until Junior prom hits McKinley high on 'Glee,' and lucky us! -- we caught up with some of the cast as they dished a spoiler or two about the episode everyone's been waiting for.
Although Jane Lynch remained infuriatingly tight-lipped about the specifics, she promises "there will be a great shocker who wins" the prom king and queen titles. What she can tell is that "everyone" performs a number, including Blaine (Darren Criss), featuring "amazing" numbers by New Directions.
Undoubtedly, one of the most anticipated of events is an intense scene in the upcoming episode's teaser, which features an angry Quinn (Dianna Agron) slapping Rachel (Lea Michele) at some point on Prom Night. When asked about the confrontation, Lea Michele said the slap was inevitable between the characters, but the upside of it is "pretending to be slapped is hilarious."
Darren Criss admits he didn't attend his senior prom because he was grounded, but was able to tag along at a friend's. He says, "if anything [the fake prom] was a little more fun" because I was making a living out of it as opposed to stressing out about it."
Don't miss 'Glee,' Tuesday nights on FOX.
On May 5, 2004 the cast of "Frasier" gathered together again to celebrate the end of their iconic sitcom at the cast and crew wrap party.
Stars Kelsey Grammer, David Hyde Pierce, Peri Gilpin, and Jane Leeves walked the red carpet to talk about their show coming to a close. When they entered the party venue, they were greeted by a wall full of episode scripts, a shelf full of Emmys won by the show, and screens playing classic clips from the sitcom's eleven season run.
The show began as a spin-off of "Cheers" with Grammer's character Dr. Frasier Crane moving from Boston to Seattle where he hosted a psychology themed talk radio show.
Check out the video to see the cast assemble to remember their hit TV show.

Jodie Foster spoke out in support of Mel Gibson Wednesday night at a screening of their new film, 'The Beaver.'
On the same day that Gibson's ex and the mother of his baby dropped a domestic violence claim against the actor related to their custody battle, Foster said that working with Mel was "amazing."
She asserted, "I think it's no secret that he's really one of the most loved people in the business, professionally."
"He has seen the film, he loves the movie," Foster said, adding, "He's doing well, you know, he's at an interesting moment in his life and he's really being as supportive as he can and, you know, clapping from the sidelines."
Foster directed Gibson in "The Beaver" and disclosed that after 45 years of acting, audiences should expect to find her behind the camera more and more in the coming years.
The film, which is due in theaters Friday, finds Mel playing a formerly successful toy exec and family man who falls into a depressed slump and can't get his life back on track… until, that is, he dons a beaver hand puppet.
For her first of two songs on Wednesday's "American Idol," Haley Reinhart gave fans a special first listen to an unreleased Lady Gaga song. Did the judges find it gagalicious or did it just make them gag?
With Lady Gaga's blessing, Haley sang "You and I." The reviews of her performance were less than favorable from Jennifer Lopez and Randy Jackson. Mentor Jimmy Iovine suggested she take a stab at the brand-new song, but JLo said, "I'm just not sure that was the best advice." Randy reviewed, "I'm not so sure it's that great of a song… It's so risky to come out and do something no one's familiar with."
But, Haley had Steven Tyler in her corner. "When someone can take a song they don't know and make it work, that's a beautiful thing," he said. "I think you're just one perfect song away from being American Idol." Watch the video to draw your own conclusion of Haley's voice.
Earlier this week, Lady Gaga revealed the track listing of "Born this Way." The upcoming album, which releases on May 23, does feature "You and I."
Will Haley get the chance to redeem herself in the eyes of JLo and Randy next week? Find out on the "American Idol" results show, Thursday on Fox.
MTV's docu-series "Teen Mom" doesn't return with new episodes until July 5, but you can see the cast before then in a new campaign meant to prevent teen pregnancy.
In observance of National Day to Prevent Teen Pregnancy, Amber Portwood, 20, Farrah Abraham, 19, Catelynn Lowell, 19, and Maci Bookout, 19, gave testimonials about how their children were conceived.
"The night that I got pregnant I wish that me and my boyfriend were cuddling and watching a movie," Catelynn admitted.
"Just cuddling is better than going all the way," Farrah agreed.
The upcoming third season of "Teen Mom" will continue to give viewers a candid glance into the life of teenage parents as the girls attempt to further their education while providing for their children.
"I wish I would have known how to get birth control," said Maci Bookout. "And now I do and there are tons of programs and places you can go to get birth control and to protect yourself."
