The crazy intern that stalked Steve Phillips, Brooke Hundley, tearfully defended her actions and showed an alarming level of denial in a Good Morning America interview.

Hundley denied stalking Phillips, a claim easily refuted by reading her scary letter to Marni Phillips or listening to the 911 call reporting her erratic visit wherein she crashed into a pole at the Phillips’ home. Saying she hoped Phillips would “grow up,” Hundley defends her actions, describing the relationship as abusive and her motives in terrorizing the Phillips family as rooted in a desire to save other women from similar upset and distress.

Despite being the driving force behind this story’s prominence in the media, Hundley feels she bears little responsibility in the drama that eventually cost herself and Phillips their jobs and provided endless gossip fodder for the media:

“I didn’t in any time working at ESPN follow anybody around, wanting any sort of relationship with anybody. I didn’t harass anyone. I didn’t want anything from anyone.”

Good Morning America reports that Jon and Kate Gosselin’s “controversy is likely to boost attention and ratings for the couple’s TLC show” with the season opener just days away on May 25.

According to Good Morning America on the Jon and Kate affair:

One thing is for sure: The controversy is likely to boost attention and ratings for the couple’s TLC show. When season five premieres May 25, viewers will tune in to see if the Gosselins, parents of 8-year-old twin girls and 5-year-old sextuplets, address their offscreen troubles on the show.

The show is obviously taking advantage of the current publicity around the show’s cast. On Tuesday, the Los Angeles Times said that the first episode of Jon and Kate plus 8 was not yet completed because producers were still trying to figure out how to incorporate the latest tabloid headlines and buzz into the show.

“We are in production for season five and moving forward as planned, while fully supporting the family and respecting their needs as they work through this challenging time,” a TLC spokeswoman, Laurie Goldberg, said in a statement to ABCNews.com. “This show has always been about a real family dealing with real-life situations, and that will continue to be the case for the new season.”

Jessica Simpson suffered a serious bout of music failure in a live performance on Good Morning America today.

In front of a paltry crowed reported to be only 50 people, Simpson stopped mid song, complaining that she couldn’t hear the band behind her. She did manage to get going again, but as you can hear in the video above, the universal panning the performance received is well and truly justified.

I guess the positive is that she wasn’t miming…well maybe not, miming would have sounded better.
