It didnt work. Now, for may 11th, 2017, this is entertainment tonight. Steve harvey lays down the law in a blistering memo thats just been leaked, telling his staff at times not to approach him or even speak to him. The memo lit up social media and a lot of people jumped to the conclusion that steve was on some kind of power trip. So, what was really going through his mind . I found out when i talked to steve exclusively by phone today. So, steve, what happened with the memo . I wrote it because i was trying to find out ways that i could just get more me time, time for me. Im a 60yearold man and i could not find a way to walk from the stage to my dressing room to sit in my makeup chair, to walk to my dressing room to the stage or to just sit and have lunch without somebody walking in. Steve harvey spoke to us exclusively this morning from chicago, where his talk show is wrapping up its last day of production before its move to l. A. In a startling memo to staffers that just leaked, harvey wrote, quote, there will be no meetings in my dressing room, no stopping by or popping in, no one. Do not come to my dressing room unless invited. Do not open my dressing room door. It goes on. If you open my door, expect to be removed. My Security Team will stop everyone from standing at my door who have the intent to see or speak to me. Steve told me he sent the memo because some staffers were taking advantage of his open door policy. Im in the hallway, im getting ambushed by people. With friends that come to the show and having me sign this and do this. I just said, wait a minute. So, who leaked the memo . Well, steve has some suspicions. You know, its the end of the season, Everybody Knows the show is moving to los angeles. A couple of people are not happy with that, theyre disgruntled, so, why would you wait until the end of the season to report something that i gave you back in august . And it was just simply asking everybody to honor and respect that. Look, man. Anybody if you come out your house, you dont want nobody on your porch waiting on you. You walk to your car, you dont want people bothering you on the way to your car. Everybody wants the freedom to be able to move around. I just didnt want to be in this prison anymore why i had to say in this one little room, scared to go out and take a breath of fresh air without somebody approaching me. So, i wrote the letter, man, i dont apologize about the letter, but kind of crazy what people who took this thing and ran with it, but i appreciate you asking me. Listen, bottom line, the memo and the way it was worded was a bad idea. But that doesnt make steve a bad person. He is a good guy. All right, lets go from a busy fella to a very busy lady. Somebody going back to work, Janet Jackson on tour. In fact, she just gave birth to a baby a little more than four months ago. You Better Believe miss jackson will be ready when its time to hit the stage. We have new exclusive details on now janet is getting her body back. This is a story about control. My control.

Well, you double down on the dads, adding mel gibson and john lithgow. I made the trek to the set in boston to see how all the dads are getting along. What is it like working with mel . Tell him, tell him. Youve been astounded. Difficult getting him to play my dad, because hes actually two years younger than me. Hes kidding. Marks 45, mels 61, and in real life, gibson is father to nine kids, including a newborn. How is that . It is always such a joy, the little ones, you know . Its like being young again yourself.

He has no sense of humor. You know, they talk about detd pan comedians, hes like a dead comedian. Will ferrell brought big laughs to the first film. In the sequel, john lithgow plays his dad.

All right, enough daddy talk. Mothers day is just three days away. For sharon stone, every mothers day is extra special, because of the struggles she faced to finally have kids of her own. I adopted my kids when i started at about 41. I have three little kids. 59yearold star says motherhood is her greatest joy in life. The mom to three boys had infertility issues when she was younger and turned to adoption to fulfill her dream of having a family. I think my struggle to become a mother was something i didnt talk about until recently. But i think that people understand the struggle that ive had being an adoptive mother. I think it was so public and weird and i think its just so exciting for everyone to get to see my boys having such a good time. Shes been raising her kids as a single mom, and has not really been looking for love. Theres not a lot of men that think, gee, id like to date her and be the baby daddy of three little kids. So, i kind of took me out of the dating sphere. Im okay with that, but its much more interesting to me to have a real and true love with my friends and family than a pretend relationship with a man that doesnt have what it takes to step up. Sharon was honored as mother of the year at the associate for breast and Prostate Cancer studies mothers day luncheon. She says despite living in hollywood, her family of four is actually quite normal.
