HAMMER: Big news breaking today on SHOWBIZ TONIGHT -- Jennifer Aniston just named the most eligible woman in the world. Will this finally help her find the right guy? Or does she even need a man at all? Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber -- their brand new history making smackdown explodes today. A Situation spin-off shocker today. Is the "Sitch" about to ditch "Jersey Shore" for his own show? SHOWBIZ TONIGHT asks, whose "Shore" spin- off would you rather watch? Snooki`s? Pauley D.`s? Or The Situation`s? Plus, breaking today from the "SHOWBIZ News Ticker" -- Harry Hamlin and Lisa Rinna get a live on-air scare. And a surprise TV show cancellation.</s>ANNOUNCER: TV`s most provocative entertainment news show continues right now.</s>HAMMER: Welcome back to SHOWBIZ TONIGHT. It is 30 minutes past the hour. I`m A.J. Hammer coming to you from New York City.</s>ANDERSON: I`m Brooke Anderson in Hollywood with big news breaking today - - Jennifer Aniston, the most eligible woman?</s>HAMMER: Yes, perhaps, Brooke. You heard right. A just revealed "60 Minutes" and "Vanity Fair" poll declares Jennifer Aniston is the most eligible single woman in the world. So the big question today is, did this poll get it right? With me in New York, Cooper Lawrence, who is a syndicated radio host and author of the book, "Cult of Celebrity." Right now, from Hollywood, Kristin Cruz, who is the morning radio co-host for "The Mark and Kristin Show" in Los Angeles. Jennifer Aniston, publicly dumped by Brad Pitt, in a string of relationships with the likes of Vince Vaughn and John Mayer. Now, she`s named the most eligible single woman in the world. Cooper Lawrence, did this poll get it right?</s>LAWRENCE: I mean, I think it did. But I don`t know that it`s a scientific poll necessarily, but it got it right, because, look, I mean, Jennifer`s hot. She`s an actress. People love her. People want to be like her for such a long time. She`s a good example of what single women are now. They`re in control of their lives, in control of their money, in control of who they date and they don`t date.</s>HAMMER: Yes.</s>LAWRENCE: So I think, you know, as a single icon, sure, why not?</s>HAMMER: No. I think she`s a great example because Jen says that she totally cool with totally being single. It`s where she needs to be. And I`m with her. You know, you don`t have to be in relationship to be OK. But Kristin, to you, do you think Jen is loving the new title or do you think she`s just hating it?</s>CRUZ: Yes. I think Jen is also the smartest woman in the world, because she`s been America`s sweetheart forever. And we talked about her being single nonstop. It`s kind of like when she did</s>HAMMER: Yes.</s>CRUZ: So if she gets a boyfriend, what are we going to talk about?</s>HAMMER: Yes, exactly. I would say there`s more speculation about her and her love life than any other person on the planet. And I`ve got to say it is nice to see a woman who is over 40 at the top of this list. And she`s not the only beautiful woman over 40 on this most eligible list. Aside from Jennifer Aniston, who of course tops the list, also gorgeous and over 40, the lovely Halle Berry, number two on the most eligible list. Tiger Woods` very wealthy ex, Elin Nordegren, third place on this list. And there she is, the venerable Betty White -- she scored well in this poll. She`s 88 and she is still hot. Cooper, right behind Betty White is Lady Gaga. So they`re saying that Betty White is more eligible than Lady Gaga. What do you think that is? Is it the fact that Lady Gaga -- I don`t know -- that she wore that raw meat dress? Or is it just Betty White`s raw sexuality?</s>LAWRENCE: Well, I don`t know about Betty White`s sexuality, but Betty White is iconic, whereas Gaga is kind of like goofy. I mean, if you`re looking from the perspective of a guy, who would you rather date? I mean, Betty White is just so much more fun. Gaga is insane. So it depends how crazy a guy you are. But I would go with Betty White. She`s an iconic. Who doesn`t want to be with an icon?</s>HAMMER: I think if Courtney Cox ever gives up "Cougar Town," Betty White needs to take over.</s>LAWRENCE: Right.</s>HAMMER: Well, Betty White, being on this most eligible list, is not the only Betty buzz today. Betty White opens up about her sex life as an octogenarian. Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber are locked in a big-time battle. And the Kardashians announce yet another show.</s>HAMMER: The Kardashians take Manhattan. Kourtney and Kim Kardashian just confirmed they`re serving up a fourth reality show from the Big Apple called "Kourtney and Kim Take New York." Kourtney just blogged about their new gig saying, quote, "So excited for some fall in the Big Apple. No place better. Are you ready, NYC?" The show debuts on E! in January. Betty White`s sex shocker. The 88-year-old star says she still wants to get her groove on saying sexual desire, like aging, is all in your head. In a brand-new interview with "AARP" magazine, She says, quote, "Does desire melt away with age? I`m waiting for that day to come." The octogenarian says she had quite a sex life with her late husband, Allen Ludden. And while she doesn`t have a fellow now, quote, "If Allen or Robert Redford were around, we`d have a very active sex life." The Justin Bieber-Lady Gaga smackdown. It`s a race between Gaga and the Bieb to see who will be the first to have one billion views on YouTube. That`s billion with a B. Gaga is ahead and expected the mark around October 20th with Justin getting there around 10 or 11 days later. But Bieber is catching up. His videos average 3.7 million views a day, almost twice as many as Lady Gaga.</s>ANDERSON: Gaga battles again. You know, she already beat out Britney Spears for the most Twitter followers. So Kristin, do you think she can beat out the Bieb for the most YouTube views?</s>CRUZ: I don`t think so. YouTube is a whole other thing. The Bieb`s got the Bieber fever. All the teenage girls are going crazy for him. But don`t forget, the moms think he`s kind of cute, too, so they might be watching this stuff as well.</s>ANDERSON: He crosses all sorts of generations, that Bieb.</s>CRUZ: That`s right.</s>ANDERSON: And you know, Cooper, during September, just last month, Bieber`s videos were viewed about 3.7 million times a day. So he`s almost going to reach 1 billion viewers come, what, November 1st, like A.J. said in the piece. That`s a lot of folks.</s>LAWRENCE: Yes, it sure is. But you know, remember, when a teenage girl has the hots for a guy, she wants to look at him as often as she possibly can. So I`m sure you get a lot of repeat offenders there, little girls who want to see him over and over. As opposed to Gaga, I`m sure her viewers love to look at her, but I don`t think they hit on the same things over and over and over the way his fans do.</s>ANDERSON: No. I think people can take their eyes off the raw meat dress.</s>LAWRENCE: Right.</s>ANDERSON: But you know, the "Baby" song? I just can`t get it out of my head. It`s really catchy. But hey, what about this big news, ladies, today that the Kardashians are getting another reality show? "Kim and Kourtney Take New York." Kristin, I`m seriously impressed that these girls continue to capitalize on fame, which they built from nothing. But does the world really need another Kardashians reality show? I can hardly keep up with the Kardashians?</s>CRUZ: That`s</s>ANDERSON: Put Snooki in a room with Kim Kardashian -- that would be a smackdown in a heartbeat, wouldn`t it?</s>CRUZ: There you go.</s>ANDERSON: Cooper, what do you think? Does the world need another Kardashian show? It certainly has been very lucrative for them, very lucrative for the "E!" network.</s>LAWRENCE: My listeners are really turned off by them, ever since they saw Kim shopping, you know, in Paris and spending $100,000 on handbags -- I mean, it really takes them out of the "I`m just like you" mode, not that we thought they were just like us. But it really puts them at a whole arrogant level that from what I`ve learned from my listeners on my radio show that they are so turned off by them and they`re done with them. So I`d love to see how the next show does.</s>ANDERSON: OK. A lot of people may be turned off. But Kristin, a lot -- they do have a lot of viewers, though, so is it the fantasy of that sort of lifestyle that people are gravitating towards?</s>CRUZ: Oh, if it`s a fantasy, I hope that`s the fantasy. Because I`ve got to say, my husband is a firefighter and all the guys at the station watch it. Yes, you, guys, know. You do.</s>ANDERSON: You called them out.</s>CRUZ: That`s right.</s>ANDERSON: All right. Cooper Lawrence, Kristin Cruz, we`ll just have to wait and see how the "Take in New York" goes. Thank you both.</s>HAMMER: All right. You know, The Situation has said in the past he is bigger than the Kardashians. Let me tell you, them is big time fighting words, right? Well, The Situation reveals to us today, "Is he getting his own spin- off from "Jersey Shore"? Could it be? Snooki and Pauley D. are reportedly getting their own shows as well. But we have got to ask, which one of these spin-offs would you watch? Well, you can`t much bigger than this -- Oprah, Martha, their huge face-off today. So did Martha just diss Oprah to her face? Could it be? And brand-new revelations today from the woman who some accuse of breaking up Bristol Palin and Levi Johnston for good? The woman, Brittani Senser, and Levi in her steamy music video.</s>HAMMER: Senser speaking out today. And she`s saying, hey, don`t blame me. This is SHOWBIZ TONIGHT on HLN news and views. And as you peer into SHOWBIZ TONIGHT`s master control, time for the "SHOWBIZ News Ticker" -- more stories from the SHOWBIZ TONIGHT newsroom making news today.</s>TEXT: "Deadliest Catch" renewed for seventh season with sons of late Capt.
