ABC/ADAM TAYLOR(LOS ANGELES) -- This week, one lucky celebrity will be awarded the Dancing with the Stars Mirror Ball trophy.
Only three pairs remain: Katherine Jenkins and her partner Mark Ballas, telenovela actor William Levy and his partner Cheryl Burke, and NFL star Donald Driver and his partner, Peta Murgatroyd. Each couple will perform twice Monday night, and then a third time on Tuesday's finale.
Driver is considered the favorite on some betting websites, and he's comfortable in that position. He says, "I think we’ve done everything on this show that we possibly could do week in and week out. And, it’s going to get to that point again it’s going to come up to one last dance, and we know that we’re ready to do it."
Levy is just going with the flow entering Monday's performance show. He says, "I don’t want to beat people, man. That’s not that way I am. Go out there and have fun and enjoy myself, man."
Jenkins has a similar attitude -- she says she's not interested in psyching out her opponents.
The Dancing with the Stars performance show airs at 8 p.m. Eastern time on ABC.
LOIC VENANCE/AFP/GettyImages(LONDON) -- Is one of the world's most popular action stars calling it quits? The answer is absolutely not.
Jackie Chan created some confusion when he told reporters at a Cannes press conference Friday that he's giving up action films for good, reports UsMagazine.com. Chan was talking to reporters while promoting his latest movie, Chinese Zodiac.
The 58-year-old actor, who is famous for performing his own stunts, said, "This will be my last action movie. I will ask my body how long I can go… I tell you, I am not young anymore." He added, "I am really, really tired." Chan explained, "The world is too violent now. It's a dilemma because I like action, but I don't like the violence."
However, Chan now says he misspoke. He cleared things up with a message on his official website JackieChan.com on Sunday.
Jackie wrote, "I just want to let everyone know that I am not retiring from doing action movies. What I meant to say is that I need to do less of the life-risking stunts on my movies. After all these years of doing so many stunts and breaking so many bones, I need to take better care of my body so I can keep working. I will continue to do international action movies." He added, "And I will keep improving my English."

Frederick M. Brown/Getty Images(NEW YORK) -- The Hugh Laurie drama House will end its eight-season run on Fox Monday night.
In the finale, airing at 9:00 p.m. Eastern time, Laurie's titular doctor takes stock of his life while treating a drug-addicted patient. The episode will be preceded by a one-hour retrospective.
Laurie warns fans not to expect any big twists in the finale.
He says, "It’s not going to be that sort of an ending when people go, oh my God, it just sort of flips and it was all a dream or the whole thing’s flipped upside down... I think it’s a very elegant and satisfying ending."
Since its premiere in 2004, House's cast has included, at one point or another, Lisa Edelstein, Olivia Wilde, Robert Sean Leonard, Jesse Spencer, Omar Epps, Jennifer Morrison, Kal Penn and Amber Tamblyn.

ABC/Rick Rowell(NEW YORK) -- There were plenty of laughs, a few tears and a whole lot of dancing as Kristen Wiig was given a Saturday Night Live sendoff to remember.
In the final sketch of the night, host Mick Jagger, who played a high school principal, called Wiig, who was in a cap and gown, up to the stage.
“Many of you are moving onto college, but I’d like to take a moment to say goodbye to one particular student who is leaving this summer to become a nun,” Jagger said.
Wiig then shed her cap and gown and danced with Jagger, each cast member and executive producer Lorne Michaels to the Rolling Stones song “She’s A Rainbow,” followed by the band’s hit “Goodbye Ruby Tuesday.”
The popular cast member, who appeared on the show for seven seasons, wiped away tears as she danced and hugged cast members all the way through the closing credits.
Wiig, who played everyone from Nancy Pelosi to the obnoxious Aunt Linda and the overly excitable Target lady on the show, was nominated for an Academy Award earlier this year for writing Bridesmaids. Wiig also starred in the film.
“It will be a huge blow to the show,” a source told Us Weekly. “Kristen was talking about leaving a while ago. With her movie success, it’s no surprise.”
Alberto E. Rodriguez/Getty Images(NEW YORK) -- Nick Stahl, the Terminator 3 actor who was reported missing by his estranged wife nearly a week ago, sent an email to friends on Friday indicating that he would enter a 30-day rehab program, his wife reportedly said.
"I'm relieved," Stahl's wife, Roseann Murphy Stahl, told People magazine, but she added that she was "also skeptical that he was really in rehab."
She said he sent friends an "unemotional and unapologetic" email about 10 p.m. Friday, telling them that "he's OK," that he'd be entering a month-long stay at a rehabilitation program and that he planned to make arrangements to pick up some of his clothes, according to People.
Early Saturday, Roseann Stahl tweeted, "I cannot thank you all enough for the love and support. So i will share that There is a new solid lead that nick is possibly ok.."
She was not among the recipients of her husband's email, but was able to access his email account because she knows the login and password, People said. The email did not indicate whether Stahl was using drugs on Skid Row, as his wife had suspected, or why he had disappeared on May 9, according to the magazine.
Attempts to reach Roseann Stahl via Facebook and Twitter were not immediately successful.
A spokesman from the Los Angeles Police Department said that it had not received any updates from its Missing Persons Unit implying that it would be closing its case for Nick Stahl. The LAPD's Missing Persons Unit did not immediately return a call for comment from ABC News.
TMZ.com reported that a source from the unit said Stahl's file would remain open for now because an email didn't constitute sufficient evidence to close it.
Stahl's wife notified the LAPD when she hadn't heard from him since May 9, and said he had been spending time in Los Angeles' Skid Row area.
The Carnivale actor, 32, was rumored to be dabbling in drugs, according to custody paperwork his wife filed in February, TMZ.com reported. The couple have one child together.
Stahl took over the John Connor role from Edward Furlong, whose own career was sidetracked by drug addiction after 1991's Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
ABC News(NEW YORK) -- A Ukrainian reporter who tried to kiss Will Smith on the mouth was instead met with a backhanded slap to the face.
Russia’s Life TV caught overly affectionate reporter Vitalii Sediuk and the actor on camera at the Moscow premiere of Smith’s new film, “Men In Black 3.”
After a hug and a pat on the back, Sediuk leaned in toward Smith’s face and started going for kisses, prompting the star to push him away.
“He tried to kiss me on my mouth,” Smith said on camera seconds after the incident. “This joker, he’s lucky I didn’t sucker punch him.”
It turns out kissing interview subjects is part of Sediuk’s schtick and he is known as quite the prankster, TMZ reported.
Before the kiss seen around the world, the reporter, who posed as a fan, was known for presenting Madonna with a bouquet of hydrangeas. She graciously accepted the flowers despite the fact she had said in previous interviews she did not like them.
Moments later, the singer was caught on an open microphone at a press conference telling the person next to her she “absolutely loathes hydrangeas.” The video went viral and garnered millions of views.
