Some new information has gotten out regarding the supposed beat down by Chris Brown’s bodyguard on a Florida photographer. A source who was at Chris’s birthday party says that the security who allegedly pummeled the pap did so because the photographer opened the door to the SUV just as Rihanna and Chris had gotten into the car which startled everyone. Security thought that the accuser Luis Santana, the cameraman, was attempting to enter the car and went into action.

For his part, Santana said that a window was down and he took the picture through it. Chris’s camp says that it was security at the venue that chased Santana down and not his personal security.

What type of house would you live in or build if you were a celebrity? Would you build a home that depicts your hobbies, or would you build a place that is so “you” or so overpriced that you couldn’t sell it no matter how hot the market? With those questions in mind, we sought the ten top most ridiculous, obnoxious, and just plain ugly celebrity pads around. Of course, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so what we think is tacky might seem gorgeous and practical to another beholder…The list below is in no particular order. While the sites are numbered, the numbering does not indicate that we favor one site over another or that they are listed in order of value.

1. Britney Spears: According to public records, Spears purchased the Malibu, California house through her Love Shack Trust in October 2004 for $6,300,000. The 7,400 square foot home boasts a pool, a spa, tennis court and gym, a maid’s quarters, seven bedrooms and six and a half bathrooms. Spears put the home on the market in January 2007 for $13.5 million, but the price dropped in March to $11.8 million. The house, which is located in the exclusive gated Serra Retreat area where such stars as Mel Gibson live, may have priced itself out of the market for the moment. Additionally, rumor has it that the gated estate was too overly-customized to Mr. and Mrs. Spears’ tastes. According to the linked source, “A bar in every room was too over-the-top for the average potential buyer in that price range - not to mention the lavish poolside bar built over which once was the tennis court.” This past March, papers were served to Britney and she was almost evicted because she hadn’t paid the rent. It appears that Britney’s financial team screwed up, but that all payments now are current.
2. John Travolta: No, this isn’t an airline terminal. It’s the home of John Travolta and family, built specifically to house his Gulfstream and Boeing 707B. The home is located immediately off a main airstrip in Ocala, Florida, and it’s designed so his jets can taxi right up to two outbuildings connected to the main structure that’s shaped like a truncated air-control tower. Although the property came equipped with a 7,500-foot runway, Travolta extended the taxiway to reach the house. Actress Kelly Preston, Travolta’s wife, can tell when John’s home, as the planes are visible from the living area inside the home. If that’s not enough airline for you, wait until you see the mural in the dining area that was culled from a 1937 Fortune magazine ad. Diners can pretend they’re eating in the lobby of a 1930s Paris airport.
3. Michael Jackson: Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch served as the pop singer’s private amusement park and home when the facility opened in 1988, but it’s no longer in operation. This ridiculous property, which lies over 2,800 acres, contains a zoo, a theme park with Ferris wheel, merr-go-round, zipper, spider, sea dragon, wave swinger, super slide, dragon wagon kiddie roller coaster, and bumper cars. Named for Neverland, the fantastical island in the story of Peter Pan where children never grow up, the ranch is located near Los Olivos, California. As of March, 2008, the property remains in foreclosure proceedings, with a possible auction slated unless Jackson clears his debt. The auction may be forestalled by a loan extension offered by his loan holder Fortress Investments, according to Fox News.
4. Ira Rennert: Rennert, a publicity-shy billionaire founder of the Renco Group, is known more for his obnoxious New York Hamptons home than he is for anything else. This mansion is considered one of the largest occupied residential compounds in America, and - if put on the market - may be the valued as the most expensive home on earth. The home sits on 63 acres, and the buildings cover over 110,000 square feet including the 66,000 square foot main house. The main building contains a 91-foot long dining room, 29 bedrooms and 39 bathrooms. Fair Field, named after the adjoining Fairfield Pond, also contains a bowling alley, tennis and squash courts, and a $150,000 hot tub.
5. Candy Spelling: Producer Aaron Spelling tore down Bing Crosby’s old home to build this ridiculous 56,000-square-foot, 123-room Los Angeles, California estate. Unarguably the largest estate in California, this hotel-sized mansion sports a bowling alley and a single room devoted entirely to gift wrapping. While rumors ran rampant that Aaron’s widow, Candy, would sell the home in 2006 following Aaron’s death, Candy dispelled the rumors and continues to reside alone in the mansion. Candy Spelling is the mother of Tori and Randy Spelling, both actors. Candy and Tori have remained hot in celebrity mags, thanks to their feuds over Aaron’s inheritance, Tori’s portrayal of her mother in a VH1 sitcom, and other family feudal issues.
6. Will Smith: This is Will and Jada Smith’s ridiculously obnoxious mansion, located in California. Their estate is described as a Calabasas castle, as it has its own lake, basketball court, tennis court and a pair of private par threes in the backyard. The estate took over seven years to build at $20 million. Smith stated, “The problem is that you build your dream home, but then you’re seven years older so it’s the house you used to want real bad!” By 2004, when they had seven months until they could move in, Smith added, “We’ve got about seven more months (before we move in). Everybody is excited because we went (to the house) and we let the kids come in and they picked out their rooms. Some of them are not gonna live there because they’re gonna have their own home by the time we actually move in!” The Smith family was forced to leave this home in 2005 when a bush fire threatened to destroy it and several other houses in the same area.
7. Donald Trump: Donald Trump’s Palm Beach, Florida mansion was primed for the real estate market in 2006, and this 80,000-square-foot estate was priced at $125 million well before the housing meltdown. This obnoxious mansion, which resembles a civic center, totals 62,000 square feet, with nine bedrooms, a ballroom, media room, art gallery, beauty salon, and a 4,100-square-foot conservatory. Additionally, the 6.5-acre property with 475 feet of ocean frontage includes two guest houses, a pool, and parking for 40 cars. Trump purchased the estate for $41.35 million in a 2004 Florida bankruptcy-court auction. Trump renovated Maison de l’Amitié during his tenure, and during the sale it was listed as the most expensive home on the market anywhere in the U.S.
8. Saudi Prince Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdul Aziz: Shortly after His Royal Highness Prince Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz was appointed Secretary-General of the National Security Council by the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Abdullah on October 16, 2005, he put his house in Aspen, Colorado up for sale. His reason for purchasing this home, which sits on 95 acres, includes his position as Ambassador of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the United States of America from October 24, 1983 to September 8, 2005. However, it appears that His Highness rarely stayed at this U.S. palace. The main portion of the house, which is larger than the White House, includes 16 bathrooms, 15 bedrooms, stables, a tennis court, an indoor swimming pool, outdoor water features and a snowmelt driveway. The price? At the time, the asking price was $135 million, ten million more than what Trump asked for his Palm Beach estate. The Prince took the house off the market in November 2007 after a lack of offers.
9. Michael Vick: The former quarterback for the Atlanta Falcons is languishing in jail and no longer lives in this somewhat tacky Surrey County, Virginia home since he was convicted for dog fighting. The house includes 5 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, a white brick exterior, hardwood floors, and a full basketball court in the backyard. Although the Surry County, Virginia Commissioner of the Revenue stated the dwelling itself is valued at $647,000, and the 15 acres of land upon which the home sits was valued at $100,000, it would be very spooky to live in a home where this celebrity buried dog carcasses. The home sits across the street from a Baptist Church and is surrounded by a large, white fence and was sold at auction in November 2007.
10. Martha Stewart: Would you pay $8.9 million for this house? That’s what Martha Stewart wants for her Westport, Connecticut home called “Turkey Hill.” The Georgian style house sports nine bedrooms, three baths, several outbuildings and “the nicest garden in town.” However, we feel that - given Martha’s gift for creativity - this house really is a turkey. At least it has plenty of room to roam on 4.03 acres. But, that wallpaper effect on the stairwell needs to go

The UCLA psych hospital where Britney Spears spent 2 5150 stints earlier this year has implemented new precautions to prevent any leaks of information. The hospital is now officially a cell phone and laptop free zone after patient photos showed up on the net. The LA Times reports that none of the shots featured Britney but the hospital is still concerned for the patients. Patients will still have access to landlines but no more of the electronic stuff that could get them into trouble. The ban actually went into effect on March 3 after UCLA fired at least 13 workers and suspended 6 more for snooping in Brit’s medical records.

Ok, before you freak out and start calling Children’s Services, nothing is confirmed. But check out this pic and decide for youself.

Personally, I don’t know. It looks a lot like a possible baby bump, and remember, she was seen out shopping for a pregnancy test a couple of months ago. Plus, doctors did show up at her house for a little visit on Saturday.

But then again, it could just be the effects of too much fast food and Starbucks. Good as it is, that stuff can put the weight on you if you aren’t careful.

Lindsay Lohan has turned her back on some of her friends in a bid to stay sober. The ‘Mean Girls’ actress, who left Utah’s Cirque Lodge rehab clinic six months ago, has had to turn her back on all aspects of her partying lifestyle, including some of her former pals.

She said: “There are friends that have been hard to hang out with because they’ve gone down a different path. But it’s really hard because I’m the kind of person who wants to trust everyone.”

Lindsay also spoke about other troubled stars including Amy Winehouse and Britney Spears who have also experienced problems with drugs or alcohol.

She said, “I think lots of people go through dark times, but it’s even harder with everyone watching. It’s a lot of pressure and I really feel for them, but I can’t compare myself to them. Everyone is their own person and they will overcome it in their own ways.”

Michael Jackson has always made a big thing of keeping the identities of his children hidden from the media, usually covering them with face obscuring masks in a bid to ‘protect’ them whenever they were out in public.

However the troubled king of pop appears to have released his grip on Prince Michael, ten, and nine-year old Paris. The happy looking pair were allowed to stroll through the Luxor Casino in Vegas with their smiling faces uncovered.

The youngsters were the product of the singer’s brief marriage to his dermatologist’s wife Debbie Rowe. They wed in 1996, divorcing three years later.

Rowe has since said that she wanted Michael to have the children as a “gift”.

Hmm I’m not sure about the whole children as a gift idea, but its nice to finally see the kids’ faces. Very normal looking.

Whatever is in the stars for David Beckham this year I haven’t a clue. But the sexy footballer has new ink work on his forearm featuring a string of them.

After opening his third football academy, the LA Galaxy midfielder showed the tatt off during a kick about in Brazil. And don’t get me wrong, he looked good doing it. Becks is a cool guy and in great shape but I have to say I think he’s overdoing it on the inking front.

The new work has been done since his charity trip to Sierra Leone ten days ago. But there’s still room on his upper arm for a “Beckham 100” logo if he gets his 100th England cap next week.

Well that’s ok then.

In the meantime, Posh better watch out as I’m not the only one admiring Beck’s bod. Paris Hilton thinks he is the only man on earth who should don tiny swim shorts. She said, “Unless you’re David Beckham, do not wear Speedos.”

Advice many many blokes really ought to heed. Please.

Singer Sheryl Crow has slammed the media for prying into one of the most devastating periods of her life, and the people who bought the tabloid reports for entertainment.

The 45-year-old was diagnosed with breast cancer in February 2006 just days after ending her three-year relationship with fellow cancer sufferer and cyclist Lance Armstrong.

And the star believes the events sparked an ever-present paparazzi frenzy that put a strain on her recovery.

She says, “Having 100 paparazzi outside my gate at all times because of the terrible things that were happening, it really spoke to me about who we are. If this is what makes people want to buy magazines - someone at their absolute lowest - that is a very sad message. I found the whole experience was very difficult. I went from being linked with one of the most famous cancer survivors to then begin diagnosed with cancer.”

The woman has a point…

There’s nothing sweeter than welcoming your son home from jail. That’s exactly what Donald Sutherland did Thursday night in Santa Monica. He and son Keifer enjoyed dinner at the Brass Cup.

Keifer served 48 days in jail for a DUI conviction and probation violation. He had to stay in over Christmas and his birthday. This was the first time the two had seen each other since that sentence started in December.

Despite rumors of Tony having an affair, the couple is putting on a united front.Last week, French model Alexandra Paressant announced that she had an affair with Tony Parker, husband of Eva Longoria. The couple has jointly denied those rumors of infidelity.

Tony says, “I love my wife. She’s the best thing in my life, and I have never been happier.”

They continued to appear in public together, attending a Lakers/Spurs game in L.A. on Thursday. They exited a plane in Texas last Friday night, holding hands and kissing. Sources say they continue to be playful and affectionate with each other.

A faithful celebrity husband? Whoda thunkit?

Late Monday night, a dazed and confused Britney Spears moaned to the paparazzi that she was scared ash she drove around in circles in LA. I guess she was scared of being deposed because she didn’t even show for it.

Sources are saying that KFed’s lawyer, Mark Vincent Kaplan, is “going to seek court sanction against Miss Spears”. What does that mean for Brit? It means that if she misses her deposition whenever it’s rescheduled, she could be held in contempt of court and arrested. It’s obvious she has no respect for the law, why don’t you just arrest her now?! And to think that it was a court-ordered deposition too.

Or so it seems…..

Maybe the pretty princess really DOES care about people besides herself. At least she seemed to be doing just that during a freak accident at a Miami nightclub.

Here’s the scoop - Paris Hilton was partying at Cameo in Miami. A crowd rushed the stage suddenly, trampling and injuring a nightclub entertainer who was dressed as one of the Oompa-Loomps characters from the “Willie Wonka” movies. The performer, Robin Sherwood, ended up with a very bad cut to the leg.

Paris actually knew him - she had worked with him in the past and had actually tried to help him fight to receive a needed kidney transplant. When she realized he was hurt, the heiress hurried to Sherwood’s side and stayed there until emergency personnel arrived to care for him.

One source says, “Paris was great. She was there until he was turned over to the medical technicians.”

Wow - I, for one, am stunned. Next thing we know, she’ll be battling Brangelina for “Humanitarian of the Year”.

Well it may have been his first knockout but Ricky Hatton really was seeing stars after his defeat against Floyd Mayweather this weekend. Hollywood superstar Angelina Jolie went back to the dressing room after the fight to make sure that Ricky suffered no lasting damage.

Well I know it was a career breaking moment, but I bet Ricky was dead chuffed. Especially being as Angelina was accompanied by Brad Pitt.

The couple sat less than 20ft away from the spot where brave Brit Ricky was knocked out in the tenth round. It was the first boxing match Angelina had seen up close and she visibly grimaced when he went down.

Ricky vows he will return; saying, “Mayweather was better than I thought. Sorry, everybody, it wasn’t my night, but I will be back.”

Suri Cruise is such a little princess. And she’s also inherited her parents’ fondness for jet-setting. The Cruise family has been all over the world in the past week, making stops in Italy, London and Los Angeles.

The first thing that they did when they got home was prove how much Suri loves the Spice Girls. The Cruise clan sat with David Beckham and his sons at the Spice Girls concert in LA on Wednesday. It seems like they had a great time there.

I’m wondering about something though. When did Suri stop looking like an alien and start looking cute?

Is there no end to the saga that began when photos of Jennifer Love Hewitt’s flabby backside surfaced on the internet? She issued her rebuttal to the unkind remarks by writing in her blog on her website. I thought that would be the end of it, but no…now other celebs are coming out of the woodwork in her defense.

People magazine features a story in their Friday issue that talks about the issues behind the whole fiasco. In this story, they share comments from several female celebrities.

Model Petra Nemcova says, “There are different angles that everybody, even if you’re in great shae, can look bad in a photograph. And printing these images is definitely influencing people’s minds - the stars themselves, but also the people who are reading and looking at the images, the teenagers. It’s definitely good that she spoke out.”

Rosario Dawson commented, “We’re not really in the Twiggy era anymore. It makes me really nervous, because I don’t know how in the world we’re supposed to be that thin unless we’re totally starving or drugging up.”

Hewitt is trying to simply get on with her life. she went on a trip to Disneyland this week with her fiance Ross McCall and some friends.

A former bodyguard for Lindsay Lohan is suing American Media, the parent company of Star Magazine, for mistakenly publishing his photo in an article in which a Lohan bodyguard blabs about her crazy moments.

An article was published in June and says, “The drugs, the guns, the wild sex, and the cutting - the man who witnessed it all reveals Lindsay Lohan’s darkest moments.” It lists the beans-spiller as a man named Lee Weaver.

The name is right - it was the photo that was wrong. Instead of printing a pic of Weaver, they printed one of former bodyguard Andrae Renard. Renard is now suing them, saying they damaged his career as a bodyguard due to their “libelous use of his photograph”. He also says he’s been “banned from entering certain elite Hollywood nightclubs”.

Star says they printed a retraction and removed the article from their website as soon as they learned of the mistake. Renard still asked for a reported million dollars because of the mistake.

Hmm, he can’t get into a night club? Well, heck yeah, he deserves the money. Heaven forbid they cost him his fun!

If you’re ever in Leipers Fork, Tennessee, keep your eyes peeled for some A-list celebrities. Urban and Kidman say their home there, just outside of Nashville, is a special place.

The two 40 year olds purchased a farm there this summer and have spent the last few months working on it. There they can find a little time away from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood and enjoy some much needed time alone.

Urban says, “There’s a pace and a way of living that is much more spiritually satisfying to me than a lot of other places.”

Aww, isn’t he just the cutest? Kudos to Keith and Nicole for being such an attractive, seemingly down to earth Hollywood couple.

Maybe my tears over Tom and Nicole were unfounded after all because both seem to have moved on and done quite well for themselves.

Don’t panic, football fans, I don’t mean on the pitch. No, Victoria Beckham has told hubby that he is banned from attending the first gig of the Spice Girls’ reunion gig because she is too nervous.

Awe. Poor David. And I bet he just couldn’t wait to be the ever supportive husband and watch the five girls in Vancouver, Canada as they kick off their hugely anticipated world tour.

Most husbands like to be supportive but David claims his wife is constantly changing her mind. “One minute Victoria is saying she wants me there and then it’s, ‘No, don’t come to the first show, as we’ll all be too nervous.’ But I think I’ll be at the show a couple of days later in San Jose and have the boys with me. And I know Victoria will ring me as soon as the first show ends. She says the rehearsals have gone amazingly well.”

Ah well, stay home and watch the footy eh David?

Looks like she’s gonna need some cheese to go with that. Unfortunately, though, it appears she’ll be eating it alone.

Amy’s husband Blake Fielder-Civil was denied bond Friday. He is charged with assault and tampering with witnesses in connection with that charge. He’ll be spending Christmas and New Years alone in jail as he awaits his January 18 hearing. The judge has stated a probable early June date if it goes to trial.

Amy arrived at the courthouse around 10:40 a.m. and waiting in the courtroom for her husband to arrive. When he came in at 11 a.m., he smiled and winked at his wife, mouthing, “I love you.” She sat with his younger brother, his mother, and a “family friend”.

The judge agreed to hear arguments in his chambers after complaints of the “intense scrutiny from the press”. The proceedings lasted about an hour and a half. When they returned to the courtroom for the decision around 12:30, the judge announced that the request for bail was denied.

Fielder-Civil held his hand up to his ear like a phone and mouthed to Amy, “I’ll call you.” She responded by waving and blowing kisses.

She quickly left the courthouse and refused to comment to any members of the press.
Her husband as for bail, but the judge said, “No, no, no!”

The pop wreck that is known as Britney Spears was seen at Petco over the weekend. Seeing as her Thanksgiving plans are still unknown, a reporter took the liberty to ask her if she was going to take up Miley and Billy Ray Cyrus’ offer to join them on Turkey day.

Earlier this past week, In Touch reported that Billy Ray invited Britney to dinner with his family because his family cares and that Miley, who happens to be a big fan, wants to reach out to Brit.

As for her answer, Britney said yes. Can you just imagine the conversation at the table? But even though she confirmed attending, do consider her track record. Miley might as well start passing the yams already.

Being a mother myself I know all to well how forgetful you can get during pregnancy. Seriously, you are lucky if you remember your own name most days and if you find the car keys in the freezer and the butter in the oven you are having a good day.

But surely forgetting your underwear is a little on the extreme side? Especially for celebrities like Christina Aguilera, who must have an entourage of people around her to remind her of such necessities? But no, obviously knickers must be a rare commodity in Hollywood as she joins the growing list of stars leaving their underwear at home whilst out on the town.

Our pregnant star once slammed Britney Spears, Lindsey Lohan and Paris Hilton for such behaviour, but we have pictures to prove she is now a full fledged member of the panty-less crew. Whether she will remember it or not I am sure someone will be happy to remind her…

There is to be a 4th instalment in the Final Destination series. Director David R Ellis, who directed Final Destination 2, has been signed up to direct the 4th movie; which they plan to film in 3D. The popular horror series works on the premise that even if you cheat death once, the force that is death itself will stalk you until it has finished what it has started, usually as gruesome and gory as possible.

Apparently this isn’t true for sequels. You can kill a good idea. I think that the movie bosses made so much money (double their budget) on the 1st, 2nd, and even 3rd instalment they are willing to push their luck.

Do you ever get the feeling of de ja vu? There are only so many new ways you can kill a bunch of teenagers off before it gets yawnsome. However I could be totally wrong and we could have another hit movie on our hands. But ask yourself…who actually watched all of the Scream movies and can you remember what the last one was about?

That would be the sound of champagne corks popping over at Court TV. A Las Vegas judge ruled Wednesday that prosecutors have enough evidence to take O.J. Simpson and two alleged accomplices to trial on charges of robbing two sports memorabilia collectors at gunpoint in a Las Vegas hotel room. I hope they finally fry his ***! I also would like to know how that jury sleeps at night. Their excuses for acquitting him was inexcusable, and for those of you who say he was found not guilty, let me say, you are incorrect. Being acquitted is not being found not guilty. I would like to know if Simpson is following through with his promise to find the real killers??? Oh, yes, he did, he admitted to killing them in his book. No one would write such a book when they have children by the woman who was murdered, just more proof he killed the mother of his children.

Brad Pitt came to his girlfriend Angelina Jolie’s rescue at the European premiere of her new film Beowulf on Sunday, by helping her cover-up when her leather pants split at the back. Pitt and Jolie were on the red carpet in London’s Leicester Square when the actress’ skin-tight black leather trousers started to unstitch around her bottom. I think that it was really an embarrassing thing for her. I can imagine how I would feel if I were d 1.but nice thinking brad. Way 2 go! I just can’t help with d thinking dat this whole thing was planned. Anyway what has happened has happened so I’ll advice Angelina 2 try and 4get it and face d future. At least she still has her whole life ahead of her. Sorry any way. Oh Yeah though I haven’t seen the pics of the pant split up till now, I am sure those pictures would be surfacing up soon very soon as the paparazzi would been on their toes for pics like these, she won’t be able to hide her butt like this, haha.

Who knew that the courts in London are actually open on weekends? But Amy Winehouse showed us just that. And if that’s the only way she can actually look all cleaned up, then I’ll take it.

The ‘Rehab’ singer left her signature dilapidated ballet slippers and short shorts at home and showed up at Thames Magistrates court looking her best as a ‘respectable housewife’ on Saturday. She was there to see her hubby, Blake Fielder-Civil who was charged for allegedly trying to fix a trial. Blake was arrested on Thursday, mere days before he went to trial for assault after he beat up a bartender. He will be held in jail until November 26

Do you remember the time when Michael Jackson’s Neverland Ranch was filled with laughter, rolling greens and just looked like the ultimate home? Yeah, it’s gone. The King of Pop’s 2,800 acres worth of bumper cars, carousels and Ferris wheels now looks like a ghost town and Jacko has less than 3 months to make good on a $23 million loan.Neverland Ranch once gave jobs to dozens of servants and groundskeepers but now seems like a barren land while the supposed near-bankrupt singer rents an expensive home in Washington, D.C. A formal Notice of Default and Election to Sell was filed in Santa Barbara County recently, otherwise, Jacko can say goodbye to Neverland.

Paris Hilton skipped out on the Los Angeles Halloween festivities last night to hit up Las Vegas hot spot LAX. Paris hosted the party and was even the judge for the $20,000 costume contest. I thought that she was suppose to be Alice from Alice in Wonderland with the trip out contacts, and what the fuck is with her new obsession with those contacts. While she gets drunk and high at a party, the military are putting their lives on the line for us. That fucking outfit mocks them. There’s not one thought in her empty head about our troops. She needs her mouth slapped, THEN her lips will be swollen. Well she may have looked every bit the Halloween she really is in real life but wearing a military outfit that too at a Halloween party shows that even if some think she has a sense of humor I’d think she and all of Hollywood that is appreciating her outfit are actually a bunch of jerks who think that many fun of the soldiers is really cool. Sad thinking on their part.

24 star Kiefer Sutherland blames fans for his jail sentence for driving under the influence, and is refusing to sign anymore autographs. The actor will spend Christmas behind bars after being sentenced to 48 days behind bars, following his arrest in September. It could be possible that he is reacting to bad news and said something out of character. In a case like this, where you will be spending some time in jail, probably detoxing in the process, anybody would be likely to lash out and blame others, it is a normal human behavior and most celebrities are not celebrated for their common sense, grace under pressure, or normal view on life. Besides it could have been taken out of context or never said. Comment not to demish his personal responsibility, you drink and drive as much as he probably has, you accept the risks, you had one free one, now it is jail time, which he of course deserves, as any one of use would get some time in the stripped home for our second DUI.

Pregnant Halle Berry is winning her battle with diabetes, thanks to a healthy diet and good living. The actress was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes after she passed out while shooting a show called Living Dolls when she first arrived in Hollywood. As a Mother of a Type 1 diabetic child I have not liked what has been said about diabetic people in general. I don’t care if Halle has T1 or T2, both are serious chronic illnesses that require care and attention. However, in T1 diabetes, without insulin people die, this is fact. And, you cannot, by diet and exercise, hope, or prayer change that to Type 2, and you cannot stop insulin - ever. Perhaps before implying to the world, which includes a group of young impressionable kids, that they can “ween” themselves off of a medicine that keeps them alive, she should check to make sure that is accurate and that comment isn’t going to cause one of those impressionable kids to harm themselves. I can tell you, she has caused a lot of waves in the diabetes communities today with this one incredibly ill advised comment.

Former James Bond actor Pierce Brosnan is being investigated on possible assault charges against a photographer, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s department said on Tuesday. Brosnan got into a scuffle when the photographer started to compliment the actor on his James Bond films. Brosnan reacted by cursing Rosen and hitting him in the ribs while the photographer kicked the actor. Well I can’t understand that why the hell do these photogs need to go out and irritate the actors, Pierce was at a mall and just moving here and there enjoying himself, but these paps needs to spoil the day by going and talking to them and telling hey just one click please and one more click please, won’t that irritate him or anyone for that matter (if you are a celebrity that is). He must have assaulted Brosnan and Brosnan must and returned the favor without losing time. I love Pierce Brosnan and he was out of the world with his performances in the Bond movies and just for his acting and stunts I give him the benefit of doubt.
