She may claim to be humiliated by the ordeal, but Kendra Wilkinson is a sex-tape superstar — her XXX debut, Kendra Exposed, is selling like hotcakes! “It surpassed our expectations. It’s our best-selling tape so far this year and could be one of our biggest-selling celebrity sex tapes of all time,” Steven Hirsch, founder/co-chairman of the company that released Kendra’s video, Vivid Entertainment, tells In Touch. So what’s the secret to Kendra’s success? “Kendra has millions of fans that love her. There's no question that the real popularity of a star helps to sell a movie and, of course, it helps that she's only 24 years old and beautiful," Steven adds. While the bodacious blonde has become an adult film favorite, another reality TV star, The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Danielle Staub, has not quite achieved the same level of fame in the industry. "Kendra's sex tape has easily sold four times that of Danielle's sex tape. It performed poorly, mostly due to the fact that she is not very likable," an insider tells In Touch. Though she took legal action to stop its release, Kendra’s tape hit the web in May, while Danielle’s video was released in June through Hustler Inc.

More than two months after her bitter split from fiancé Jake Pavelka, Vienna Girardi is having trouble reentering the singles scene. The blond reality starlet, who fell into an ill-fated love affair on the last season of The Bachelor, has found that her new fame is interfering with her dating game. “It's intimidating for me; I'm really scared, to be honest. I just want to go on a normal date,” she lamented to In Touch at the Reality Cares pre-Emmy party in LA. Since her June breakup from Jake, Vienna has been linked to Greek actor Gregory Michael and college student John Sala.

She may have conquered her lifelong weight battle, but Sara Rue isn’t so fearless in all aspects of her life. The actress, who lost 50 pounds in less than a year with Jenny Craig, is terrified of planning her wedding to fiancé Kevin Price. “It’s not going so well, to be perfectly honest with you. It is a lot of work, and I’m scared!” the svelte star said at the Entertainment Tonight Emmy party in LA. Though Sara, who became engaged to her teacher beau last summer, has only recently started seeing a wedding planner, she has a few fun ideas for the post-nuptial bash. “I know that there will be beer pong at the after-party!” she laughed.

You may not recognize Shayne Lamas these days. Best known for winning Season 12 of The Bachelor, Shayne, 24, looks fitter and sexier than ever, and says she’s happy she chose not to go down the same surgical path as fellow blond bombshell Heidi Montag. “Dr. Ryan was a family friend of ours,” Shayne tells In Touch of the late Dr. Frank Ryan, the Beverly Hills plastic surgeon who famously performed 10 surgeries on Heidi in one day. “I went to see him because I wanted a boob job, but he ended up telling me that I needed about $70,000 worth of work — thigh lipo, a butt lift, basically a whole body makeover — to turn me into the perfect Barbie doll. But I didn’t want to be a Barbie doll.”

About a week before Shayne was scheduled to get her breast augmentation with Dr. Ryan, she read about Heidi’s multiple surgeries and had second thoughts about going through with her own procedure. “It was absurd and I felt sick,” Shayne says. “She’s my age, and it was the same breakdown of what he wanted me to do. I was disturbed by it.” She adds she’s relieved she didn’t go to the extremes that Heidi did. “She probably wanted more and more, and it was publicity for both her and him,” she says of Dr. Ryan, who died in a car accident in Malibu on August 16. “But I think it was very irresponsible of him to do that. I’m reluctant to say that now that he’s resting in peace, but that’s how I feel.”

Tongues were wagging when Sean Penn and Charlize Theron walked into Via Veneto for dinner in Santa Monica on August 5. According to a pal, the pair have been friends for years, and Sean, 50, has been there for Charlize, 35, lending her a shoulder to cry on. “He helped her through her split with Stuart [Townsend],” says the pal. Although an insider says the two are not dating, Charlize and Sean were being cute and flirty throughout the meal. And Sean “thinks she’s beautiful, and she thinks he’s brilliant.”

For Teresa Giudice, it was like living a nightmare. After ten years as the big-spending wife of a successful real estate developer, the Real Housewives of New Jersey star was being told by a lawyer that she and her husband, Joe, were $11 million in debt — and needed to file for bankruptcy as soon as possible. “I was humiliated,” she tells In Touch in an exclusive interview.

Not to mention shocked. Kept out of the loop regarding Joe’s business dealings, Teresa, 37, had no idea they were in so much financial trouble until that fateful day in the lawyer’s office. “Joe thought things were going to get better,” she explains. But they got worse and worse in more ways than one. After that initial shock, Teresa saw her lavish tastes scrutinized and mocked. And her alleged $60,000 spending spree on home furnishings — which reportedly took place right after she and Joe declared bankruptcy — didn’t win her many supporters. When Teresa stated her case on The View, insisting that she’s now living within her means, Joy Behar replied, “How can you live within your means if you’re now $11 million in bankruptcy?”

These days, though, Joe has taken control of the finances, doing all the grocery shopping and imposing a limit on Teresa’s credit cards. And he doesn’t mind: “I want to save more.” While the girls used to always have brand new clothes, they now wear each other’s hand-me-downs — easy, since they’re all growing so fast. “Me and my husband have learned a lot from our mistakes,” Teresa shares, adding that, as heartbreaking as it is, bankruptcy does have a silver lining. “It’s brought us closer together.”

How does True Blood star Joe Manganiello's girlfriend of one year deal with his sexy shirtless scenes and fans lusting after her man? Retail therapy helps! "She handles it amazingly well," Joe told In Touch at HBO's Emmy Awards after-party at The Pacific Design Center in Los Angeles. "And, of course, I throw in the occasional pair of shoes to make things go down a little easier. I had to learn who Christian Louboutin was - and now I regret that I know!"

Proud mom Sandra Bullock is beaming about her recently finalized adoption of her infant son, Louis. "Everything works out the way the universe wants it to work out, " she tells Today's Matt Lauer in an interview set to air on NBC on Tuesday. The Oscar-winning actress opened up about the adoption process during the interview, which was conducted at the Warren Easton Charter High School in New Orleans, where the Oscar-winning actress recently helped fund a health clinic. "It was a long, long process, but it's that way for a very important reason; I did not circumvent," she says. "I wanted to do everything exactly the same way everyone else did. He was always mine, you know. It wasn't like I felt like someone was going to take him away. But it was nice to have someone say, 'I think you're a fit parent.'"

Describing her New Orleans-born son as a "little Cajun cookie," Sandra says she had no preference as to what race or sex the baby was. "We had always said that it didn't matter where the child came from. If they had issues that were medical issues, we didn't care. It's like the child that needed us in the home is the child that's going to be placed," Sandra explains. "And I didn't think it would be a boy. We don't have any boys in our family. Boy, is everyone really happy about that. So, he's like the crown prince. You know, it's nothing but girls in our family. I mean, my cousin in Germany has one son — [otherwise,] no boys. Can you imagine how miserable our father is? I mean, every pet was female. But it was just the hierarchy that needed to be broken."

Though Mad Men continued its reign as best drama, two new comedies left their mark on the 62nd Primetime Emmy Awards on August 29. Critically acclaimed ABC show Modern Family won best comedy series, while its star Eric Stonestreet took home the best supporting actor golden statuette. “We want to make people laugh, that's our first goal. [We want] people to realize in their hearts that people are more similar than they are different, and we feel honored to do that,” Eric said at the Los Angeles ceremony about his character, new dad Cameron, and the rest of the ensemble cast. FOX’s new musical comedy Glee was also recognized, with Jane Lynch winning best supporting actress. “It means a lot. Just a year ago, I was watching the Emmys, and now I’m here! That’s amazing,” co-star Amber Riley said on the red carpet of her show’s success, which also included castmate Lea Michele’s nomination for best actress, and Neil Patrick Harris winning best guest actor in a comedy series. Other big comedy wins included Nurse Jackie’s Edie Falco for best actress, and The Big Bang Theory’s Jim Parsons for best actor. “This feels absolutely dream-like,” Jim said backstage after his acceptance speech.
