Is The Bachelor's Rozlyn Papa a bad mom?

He says. She says. The age-old debate played out on the small screen last night. Talk about great TV.

On ABC's The Bachelor: The Women Tell All special, lovable host Chris Harrison, put sexy Rozlyn Papa in the hotseat.

Rozlyn, who was one of 25 women competing for the heart of charming pilot Jake Pavelka, was kicked off The Bachelor after some behind-the-scenes drama was discovered. According to Chris, Rozlyn had "an inappropriate relationship" with Ryan Callahan, one of the show's producers and a married man. Both Rozlyn and the producer were sent home.

See a happier reality-show outcome

After the scandal aired on ABC, the gloves were off. Rozlyn claimed she did not cross the boundaries and attacked both Chris and the TV show for "fabricating" the story. Chris used The Women Tell All show to set the matter straight once and for all. Chris simply asked the other show contestants if they saw anything happen between Rozlyn and Callahan. Cutie-pie Jessie swore "on her dog's life" that she saw Rozlyn kissing Callahan.

In her rebuttal and continued denial of the claims, Rozlyn swore "on her child's life" that she did no such thing. The shock and dismay of the live audience was audible. With all the evidence stacked against her -- eye witnesses, recent visits by Callahan to Rozlyn's hometown, Chris Harrison's defense of the show -- how could Rozlyn put such bad karma out there? What kind of mother swears on her child's life to save her own skin?

Who's telling the truth? Chris or Rozlyn? I'm picking Chris, hands down.

For his female-to-male transformation, Beatie had his breasts surgically removed and took regular doses of testosterone. Before his transition, Beatie was Tracy Lagondino, a Girl Scout and Miss Hawaii Teen USA finalist. In his 20s, Beatie began living as a man and changed his gender on his driver's license and passport.

Take a look at these beautiful Hawaiian baby names. 

In 2003, Beatie legally wed Nancy, a divorced mother of two. Because Nancy was infertile (she had a hysterectomy as a result of endometriosis), Beatie became pregnant with donor sperm.

In an interview with Barbara Walters on The View, the couple said they used a standard turkey baster at home to impregnate Beatie.

If Beatie is legally a man but has all of his female reproductive organs, then is Nancy straight or gay?

Rumor has it that Courteney Cox and David Arquette may adopt a baby.

On a recent appearance on The Bonnie Hunt Show, Arquette told the host that he and Cox are considering adding to the family.

"I don't know. I mean, it takes a lot for us to do it, so maybe adoption," Arquette said.

Arquette was likely referring to the in-vitro fertilization procedures Cox underwent to have daughter Coco at the age of 39.

Cox, starring in the hit show Cougar Town, is now 45. Arquette, 38, assures fans the fact that he and his wife have not yet conceived a second child is not for lack of effort.

"Listen, I like practicing as much as possible," admits Arquette, "but it's hard... I'm exhausted!"

Check out Uma Thurman in the hilarious comedy, Motherhood.

Motherhood premiered last year at the Sundance Film Festival and is now available on DVD and Blu-Ray.

Thurman plays Eliza Welch, an urban, stay-at-home mom with two kids and an absent-minded hubby played by Anthony Edwards. Motherhood is one day in the life of Welch as she struggles through the grind and finds herself.

Eliza wakes up on this fateful day to get ready for her daughter's 6th birthday party, deal with her busy toddler son, battle for parking spaces, confront overbearing playground moms, and fix things with her best friend Sheila (played by Minnie Driver).

Amidst it all, Eliza is trying to complete a 500-word contest essay answering the simple question, "What Does Motherhood Mean to Me?" Through this process, Eliza rinds herself and discovers what it is about her life that is truly valuable.

In real life, Thurman has two kids with ex-husband, Ethan Hawke: daughter Maya Ray Thurman-Hawke, 11, and son Levon Roan Thurman-Hawke, 8. Like Eliza, Thurman lives in New York's Greenwich Village.
