Filed under: Rob Kardashian , Cheryl Burke , Dancing with the Stars , The Kardashians , Kim Kardashian , Exclusive Rob Kardashian is like one of Pavlov's dogs ... a little praise from " Dancing with the Stars " judge Carrie Ann Inaba has him thinking he's got a shot to win the whole competition. After Rob danced the jive on Monday ... Carrie Ann said, "It's official. Rob Kardashian is a better dancer than Kim Kardashian!" Now sources close to the show tell us Rob is hitting the gym daily, practicing harder than ever -- and sucking up to his partner/teacher Cheryl Burke by bringing her lunch each day. Rob's new attitude is a 180 from a few weeks ago -- when he was a total slacker . What a difference a jive makes. Permalink

Filed under: Camille Grammer , Kelsey Grammer , Celebrity Divorce , Kayte Walsh Kelsey Grammer 's wife, Kayte Grammer , has come out swinging at Camille Grammer , for opening her big mouth and claiming Kelsey has a small penis . Kayte tells TMZ, " Perhaps the fault lies not so much with the member in question but rather with the inspiration at hand ."

Kayte is responding to Camille's comment, "Big hands, big feet, big disappointment." Permalink

Filed under: Chris Brown , Celebrity Justice Chris Brown just caught the second biggest break of his life ... 95 out of the 117 parking tickets he accrued recently have been dismissed. Chris' lawyer Mark Geragos said it last month after the singer's progress hearing -- CB had racked up about $15,000 in parking citations for taking up what appeared to be handicapped spaces in the lot at his L.A. condo. But now, Chris only faces a fraction of that bill -- because sources at the City of West Hollywood tell TMZ, the parking spaces in question were assigned to Chris' apartment from the beginning ... and Chris wasn't doing anything wrong by parking there. The singer's not entirely in the clear though -- according to city sources, "22 citations remain open” for other parking offenses. Still, not a bad shake. Permalink

But Angle's lawyer tells TMZ ... his client passed a breathalyzer test.  The lawyer tells us, "We understand Kurt will be entering a plea of not guilty in response to any infractions and/or offenses." Sources connected with Kurt tell TMZ ... cops are just trying to make an example of him. The cops are mum, saying the case will be tried in court.  FYI ... someone who is not legally drunk (i.e., someone who passes a breathalyzer test) can still be arrested for driving under the influence if drugs or alcohol -- even minimal amounts -- impair the driver's ability to navigate the road.
