Kanye West is "Keeping up with the Kardashians." a spokesperson for E! confirms the performer will appear in a few episodes of the upcoming season of the Kardashians' reality series.

He and Kim are reportedly an item, though since her short-lived, and highly-publicized marriage to Kris Humphries, Kim tells E! she's a bit weary of sharing as much as she once did. The new season premieres Sunday.

Jennifer Lopez apparently has the most star power in Tinsel Town. She was named number one in Forbes' annual list of the 100 most powerful celebrities.

The publication says her career has seen a stunning reincarnation. She earned $52 million in the last year, from endorsement deals, her clothing line and her lucrative judging gig on "American Idol."

Last year's top celeb, Lady Gaga, dropped to number five. Oprah came in second, and Justin Bieber rounded out the top three.

The man who penned "The Social Network" will take a crack at telling Steve Jobs' life story.

Aaron Sorkin has been tapped to write and direct a film based on the best-selling biography of the Apple-founder. A spokeswoman for Sony Pictures says there's no writer in Hollywood more capable of capturing jobs' life than sorkin.

His other work includes "Moneyball" and "The West Wing." this will his first shot at directing a film.
