Tattle: Ben & Jerry's to create ice cream flavor for '30 Rock'

FOLLOWING in the creamy tradition of the "SNL" "Schweddy Balls," Stephen Colbert's "AmeriCone Dream" and Jimmy Fallon's "Late Night Snack," Ben & Jerry's will commemorate the end of "30 Rock" with a new ice-cream flavor, rumored to be tied to Tina Fey's character, Liz Lemon.

FOLLOWING in the creamy tradition of the "SNL" "Schweddy Balls," Stephen Colbert's "AmeriCone Dream" and Jimmy Fallon's "Late Night Snack," Ben & Jerry's will commemorate the end of "30 Rock" with a new ice-cream flavor, rumored to be tied to Tina Fey's character, Liz Lemon.

Maybe "Liz Lemon Meringue"?

Or might they go in another direction with:

"Kenneth's Possum Crunch"?

"Tracy Leches"?

"Jack and the Vanilla Bean Stalk"?

"Chocolate-Peanut Butter Toofer"?

The flavor will be in Ben & Jerry's ice-cream shops next month and available in still-16-ounce pints soon thereafter.

Royal pains

King Albert of Belgium

has told 600 dignitaries that recent scandals involving his family have given him "a lesson in humility."

During a royal reception Tuesday in Brussels for political, economic and cultural leaders, Albert acknowledged that the Belgian monarchy had not kept to the standards he expected.

"As the chief of my royal family," he said, "I will not hide from you that recent family events have hurt me and given me a lesson in humility."

Last week, Queen Fabiola, Albert's sister-in-law, was forced to scrap an inheritance foundation that was widely criticized as a tax dodge. And the king's son Prince Laurent again came under scrutiny for perceived diplomatic contacts that he should stay away from.

But the biggest blow may be the new reality show "The Real Housewives of the Belgian Monarchy."

* According to

In Touch Weekly

,

Alec Baldwin, 54, and his yoga-

instructing child bride, Hilaria Thomas, 28, are expecting.

Both are very excited.

* Tattle acknowledges a lack of understanding when it comes to this whole Kardashian phenomenon, so we have no interest that matriarch Kris Jenner is launching her own talk show this summer.

The Los Angeles Times reported that the news release about the show said that "Kris" will offer "a daily jolt of celebrity guests, fashion & beauty trends; plus a mix of lifestyle topics - all through the distinctive and unpredictable perspective of Kris Jenner."

Can someone please explain when this family's 15 minutes will end?

* Famed tightrope walker Nik

Wallenda stepped through 30- mph hour winds 200 feet over U.S. 41 in Sarasota, Fla., without a safety harness.

He did not become roadkill.

Liberty Ross, the wife of director Rupert Sanders, who had a brief affair with Kristen Stewart during the filming of "Snow White and the Huntsman," has filed for divorce.

The couple had been married nine years.

Liberty's filing cites irreconcilable differences for the couple's breakup.

She's seeking joint custody of their two children and spousal support from her estranged husband.

* Showtime is renewing its

Sunday-night comedies "Shameless," "House of Lies" and "Californication."

Given that during the new season of "Californication," Hank Moody (David Duchovny) has already drunk his own urine, we can't wait to see how next season raises the bar.

* Los Angeles police say that actor Taye Diggs chased down and captured a burglary suspect he found rummaging through items in his garage.

Twenty-year-old Hassan Juma was arrested and remains jailed Monday on $50,000 bail.

Kid Rock says that Harley-

Davidson's sponsorship of his upcoming "Rebel Soul" tour is a dream deal and that, as the owner of multiple Harley bikes, he didn't believe he was compromising his integrity or risking a backlash from fans.

The tour begins Friday in

Kansas City, Mo., and will end Aug. 31 at Harley's 110th anniversary celebration, in Milwaukee.

Drew may also be joining the faith.

"It's so family-oriented," she said. "The stories are so beautiful and it's incredibly enlightening. I'm really happy."

Amy Poehler has an agree-

ment with It Books for an "illustrated, nonlinear diary." The book is currently untitled and scheduled for 2014.
