spent 1 Night in Paris) on the beach in
Hawaii this week during a romantic
getaway. Sources tell us Pam and Rick

2008 -- have been spending a lot of

inseparable. We're told they're both
"very into health and fitness" -- and as

'Real World' Star Sean Sasser Dies -- Pedro Zamora's Boyfriend Dead at 44

Sean Sasser -- who famously dated
"Real World" star and AIDS activist
Pedro Zamora back in the '90s -- has
died after batting a rare form of lung
cancer. Sasser frequently appeared
on MTV's "The Real World: San
Francisco" ... and participated in a
commitment ceremony with Pedro,
before Zamora passed away from an
AIDS-related illness in 1994. Sasser
was HIV positive. Judd Winick -- who
also appeared on the show with Sean
and Pedro -- broke the news of Sean's
passing on his Twitter page Tuesday
night ... saying: "Our friend Sean
Sasser has died. Our love goes out to
his family & husband Michael. We will
miss u so much."Sasser was 44.

Tiger Woods I Got A Hole in ONE ... DINING ROOM!

You'd think when you spend $60
million to build a massive Florida
house it would stay above sea level ...
but not so with Tiger Woods, who has
a GIGANTIC hole in his dining room!
Sources connected with the repair of
the Jupiter Island mansion tell TMZ,
the hole is "massive" and the
underlying problem is serious.  Tiger
apparently noticed sagging in the
dining room. Contractors have now
opened up the floor, creating a big fat
hole, trying to determine what's
causing the problem.  They think the
pilings may have been improperly
set. They also fear some may be
missing.So far the problem seems
limited to the dining room, but they
don't know for sure. Tiger's had
more than his share of ups and
downs with holes over the last few
years ... for sure.

Oprah on Paula Deen N-Word Scandal: For Me, It's Just Sad

Oprah Winfrey befriended Paula
Deen in early 2012 and even
spent a night at Deen's Georgia
home, where she conducted a
wide-ranging interview.
Over a year later, in a deposition
for a lawsuit, Deen admitted
using racial slurs in the past, a
revelation that rankled many,
including her friend.
Until now, Winfrey had remained
silent on her friend's
controversy, but addressed it
this week during a sit-down of
her own for her new film The
Butler.
"In the very first days I tried to
reach her and then I decided to
stay out of it as I saw it blowing
up," Winfrey told ET this week.
"In time she will be fine."
"For me, it all just felt kind of
sad."
Oprah's feelings on the n-word
are very clear, but she believes
people need to let the "dust
settle" before they can have a
"real conversation" about race.
She says she is well aware of
racism today, even if she's
reached the point where at
times it's less overt than for
other women who are
minorities.
"You know, you see those fools
on Twitter sometime say
ridiculous things," Winfrey says.
"Nobody in their right mind is
going to call me the N-word."
"But nobody in their right mind
is going to do that to my face,
because true racism is being
able to have power over
somebody else," Winfrey
explains.
"So that doesn't happen to me
that way."
"It shows up for me if I'm in a
boardroom or situations where
I'm the only woman or I'm the
only African American person
within a hundred mile radius."
"I can see in the energy of the
people, they don't sense that I
should be holding one of those
seats. I can sense that. But I can
never tell, 'Is it racism? Is it
sexism?'"
When asked to comment about
Deen during another interview
with Extra , the 59-year-old
laughed and struck a lighter tone
than she did with ET.
"Oh my god! I don't have
anything to do with Paula Deen ,"
she insisted.
"She is not the first white lady to
use the N-word! Good lord!"

Usher's Ex-Wife Our Kids Are In Danger I Want Custody

Usher's ex-wife has just filed legal
docs asking for an emergency hearing
later this week ... to wrestle child
custody away from him, on grounds he's creating a dangerous environment ... TMZ has learned.Tameka Raymond filed the docs in Fulton County, Georgia, claiming Usher is abdicating his parental responsibilities by letting other people care for their 2 kids -- people who she claims are not on the ball.We know Tameka has specific beef with the Usher's aunt -- who was watching 5-year-old Usher Raymond V when his arm got stuck in the pool
drain on Monday.  Tameka has
complained about the aunt in the
past -- alleging she once let a stalker in the house where Usher and the kids were staying.  Tameka also says the aunt is too physical in disciplining
the kids.Currently Usher has primary custody of both kids and Tameka has limited custodial rights.  She now seeks to reverse that.

Marilyn Monroe Death: 51 Years Later, the Legend Grows

Marilyn Monroe died 51 years
ago Monday.
The Los Angeles Times' front
page the following day - August
6, 1962 (51 years ago today)
shows the impact of the icon's
loss at the age of 36:
The star died of a drug overdose
under circumstances that are still
debated to this day. What is not
debated is that her legend has
only grown since.
Marilyn . Her name alone says it
all.
A woman blessed with beauty,
shrouded in mystery, befallen by
tragedy and passing away at far
too young an age, Monroe was
ahead of her time.
Astonishingly, Marilyn was
considered talented, versatile,
vivacious, troubled and
profoundly sexual during her
prime. That image still applies
today.
The blond, curvy, breathy star
and her life fascinate and inspire
countless celebrities and regular fans alike.
Enigmatic and vulnerable innocent yet sexually iconic, and
never far from a tinge of scandal,
Marilyn was a walking embodiment of American culture.
In death, she also became a
sympathetic figure, a victim of
her own fame. She lost control
of her own greatness and was
often taken advantage of.
We project hopes, dreams,
memories, indelible images and
cautionary tales to her all the
time. Some reasonable and
some appropriate, others less
so.
One thing you can never take
away or overstate when it comes
to Marilyn Monroe, however, is
this simple truth: There will
never be another like her.
