And yes, there's more pageantry in store for you tonight when mighty Joel McHale brings his weekly load of Soup your way at 10 p.m. ET/PT.

And to hold you over 'til then, check out this little gem from Oprah...

Paris Hilton turned 30 this week! What could be more exciting than that? We know, reading something on your computer. So open the gift that keeps on giving (if by keeps on you mean for like five minutes) and enjoy the best of your week in Soup!

1. The Oprah Winfrey Show: Iyanla Vanzant was once the go-to expert in matters of the heart on Oprah's show in the '90s. Then the pair had a mysterious falling out. Was it over money? Ego?
