Providing fuel for the celebrity fodder-mill is Bristol Palin who takes a stab at ex Levi Johnston by changing their son's name, Jon Gosselin who has a real job and likes it, and finally, Bachelor Brad Womack who has a criminal past (gasp!)

First regarding Bristol Palin who gives her Mom Sarah plenty of competition when it comes to making the news, has decided to change her son Tripp's last name by dropping the Johnston and replacing that with Palin. The former DWTS contestant took to her Facebook page and wrote the following:

"Tripp Easton Mitchell Palin...PALIN!!!" RadarOnline obtained a screen grab from Palin's Facebook page in which she shares the exciting news about her son's name change and you can view it here.

And now onto Jon Gosselin, another 'celebrity' who makes the headlines on a regular basis but this time, there's good news to report.

According to a report by Life & Style, Jon Gosselin has a real job working in sales marketing for a company called Global Green Property Services which is located in Pennsylvania.

Gosselin is actually conducting cold calls to companies in an attempt to get them to utilize the services of Global Green and it's reportedly a very modest job.

A source spoke with Life & Style and said that "Jon doesn't long for fame at all. He's much more content blending in and being able to live his life without the world watching."

While one can congratulate Jon Gosselin, there are several Bachelor women who may just want to add another reason to be leery of retread Bachelor Brad Womack who has a criminal past.

RadarOnline.com is reporting that the handsome Bachelor was arrested in 1993 for carrying a forged driver's license in Texas (Brad's home state), as well as passing a bad check and finally, for public intoxication.

While these charges are not truly gasp-worthy, they definitely send a red flag that perhaps the Bachelor who's declared he will find true love 'this time around' might have a little bit more baggage than once suspected.
