Here are today’s top entertainment headlines:

• The recently crowned Miss Universe, Riyo Mori, has auditioned for a role on the hit TV show Heroes. It is not known exactly what part Mori would be playing, but series creator Tim Kring did mention that “she will be the love interest for one of the existing characters on the show.” Kring continued by saying “if (Mori) gets the part, her super power will be the ability to suck a golf ball through a 30 foot hose.”

• The band Cat Power has won this year’s Shortlist Music Prize. Cat Power’s album, The Greatest, was chosen as this year’s winner by other musicians including Sufjan Stevens, Wayne Coyne, KT Tunstall and some dude from Panic! At the Disco. Cat Power won despite a strong entry from Kevin Federline.

• And finally, in sad news, Don Herbert, better known as TV’s original Mr. Wizard, has died at the age of 89.  From 1951 – 1964 Herbert taught kids all over the country simple science experiments that they could do in their own homes. Herbert died on Tuesday doing what he loved to do… using science while banging hookers.
