The Rundown: Week of Jan. 7

Justin Bieber will host “Saturday Night Live” Feb. 9, according to NBC. The pop sensation needs to recreate his image after being photographed allegedly smoking marijuana. Now the only stories focusing on him will be about his lack of acting skills.

Reality TV star Bethenny Frankel officially filed for divorce from husband of almost three years, Jason Hoppy. Viewers watched Frankel and Hoppy fall in love and argue a lot on “The Real Housewives of New York City,” “Bethenny Getting Married?” and “Bethenny Ever After.” Another reality TV pairing learned the tough lesson that just because you document your entire marriage doesn’t mean you’ll be together forever.

Rumor has it Taylor Swift and Harry Styles have officially broken up. The couple’s whirlwind romance took them across the globe, from New York City to London. Their travels, however, did not end well. The couple fought while in the British Virgin Islands, and Swift went home early. Dating 18-year-olds is just not working out. The fling with the One Direction star happened quickly after Swift, 23, and Conor Kennedy, 18, ended their relationship. Keep going, Taylor: The more heartbreak, the more hit singles.

“Here Comes Honey Boo Boo: A Very Boo Halloween,” a special installment of the reality series, attracted 3.1 million viewers. The Halloween special marked the largest audience yet for the strangely addictive series. It looks like Honey Boo Boo’s 15 minutes aren’t over yet. Perhaps viewers tuned in to find out why a Halloween special is airing in early January?

It’s time for more Robin Sparkles! Alan Thicke, James Van Der Beek, Jason Priestley, Alex Trebek and more plan to guest star on an upcoming episode of “How I Met Your Mother,” CBS announced. The stars will be part of a flashback about everyone’s favorite pretend Canadian pop star. Here’s an idea: Instead of casting these guest stars, let’s cast the mother before Ted’s children drop dead of boredom.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West will attempt to raise a normal, grounded and humble child in their new $11 million mansion, located in California. Those who are unsure if the unlikely pair will last should listen to mother-of-the-year Snooki. She described the couple as “a perfect match” and said she thinks they will be “great parents.” The only person who secretly hates the baby news? Khloe Kardashian. She’s been trying to have a baby of her own for years.
