Sure famous people are used to having their pictures taken. But outside of red carpet moments, TMZ and rehab exits they tend to let their guard down. They should know that there will always be a schmo with a digital camera, cell phone or amazing watercolor skills there to capture all the fun stuff they might forget. Take Hugh Grant for example. The man was simply hanging out with a gaggle of St Andrews University freshman girls. Eating some pizza, drinkin’ a little Boone’s Farm or whatever freshman in Scotland drink, getting some underage lap dances, etc. But lo and behold, there’s an American in the mix who just happens to be on facebook and who also happens to like to post pictures on facebook. Opps. (more…)
In a Shameless ploy to keep up with the Joneses, the Joneses being the FOX network, ABC is sending former Lost star Michelle Rodriguez to jail. Not to be outdone by FOX’s 24 star Kiefer Sutherland’s spankin’ new jail time, Rodriguez has selflessly agreed to do time for the cause. The “straight” actress was sentenced Wednesday to at least 120 days in jail for violating probation in a DUI case.
“(She) admitted violating her probation by failing to provide proof of completion of her community service and for consuming alcohol three times while wearing an alcohol-monitoring device,” said the L.A. City Attorney’s office in a statement.
But we know the Girl Fight star was just taking one for the team to get on the good graces of ABC execs. She’s doing this knowing that this time won’t be a slap on the wrist neither. Superior Court Judge Daviann L. Mitchell ruled that the actress is not to be granted an early release, despite L.A.’s jail overcrowding. She was also ordered to complete 30 days of road clean-up duty.
If you recall, in May 2006, she served only four hours and 20 minutes of a two-month sentence at the Lynwood, Calif., jail for violating probation, stemming from a DUI arrest in Hawaii in December 2005.
The City Attorney’s office had alleged that Rodriguez turned in a false document showing that she completed one day of service on Sept. 25, court filings show. The actress later stated that she was in New York on that date. C’mon homes, she was acting like she was there, isn’t that good enough?
Rodriguez, must report to L.A. County jail by December 24, 2007. Merry F’in Xmas ABC!
It’s a lot more than 24 hours for Kiefer Sutherland — 48 days (or 1,152 hours in Jack Bauer time) is the recommended sentence he might serve for his latest drunk driving charge.
LOS ANGELES (AFP) — “24″ television series star Kiefer Sutherland pleaded guilty to drunk driving Tuesday in a Los Angeles court where prosecutors asked that he be jailed for 48 days.
Sutherland, 40, was arrested September 25 west of Los Angeles for driving with an alcohol-level three times above the legal limit, court documents show.
The actor was on probation for another drunk driving violation in 2004, for which Los Angeles prosecutor Rocky Delgadillo asked the court he be sentenced to 18 days in jail, in addition to 30 days for the current charge.
If the judge adheres to Delgadillo’s recommendations, Sutherland would have to serve the first 18-day sentence on December 21, and the other 30-day sentence on July 1, 2008.
Sutherland’s presence was not required at Tuesday’s hearing. His lawyer entered the guilty plea.
The son of Fellini’s “Casanova” star Donald Sutherland, Kiefer Sutherland just finished shooting the sixth season of “24,” whose role as US secret agent Jack Bauer earned him a Golden Globe award in 2002 and an Emmy Award in 2006.
Drunk driving is not only stupid, it’s just so freakin’ typical! What happened to the Kiefer Sutherland who got drunk and attacked a hotel Christmas tree, Jack Bauer style:
Now THAT is what I call celebrity drunken behavior. The celebrity looks like a moron, no one gets hurt, no one goes to jail, and hopefully, some hotel worker got a big tip for cleaning up Sutherland’s mess. (Because even if he claims that he and his drinking buddies put the tree back, you know they didn’t clean up all the mess.) Either that or the hotel keeps it as a stop on some cheesy 24 bus tour.
Still, Sutherland is a giant douche for getting in his car and driving home drunk like an asshole. And if Lindsay Lohan can clean up her act, surely Sutherland can too.
A video of Prince Harry has surfaced that was probably never meant to see the light of day. Taken on a recent trip to Namibia with his girlfriend Chelsy Davy and some friends, Harry is seen snorting vodka and cavorting drunkenly. One lucky friend even appears to be on the receiving end of a princely nipple lick. Sweet!
We haven’t been able to locate the clip online but according to News of the World in the video, pals cheer loudly as Harry slugs a bottle cap of vodka, swills it around his mouth, spits it back into the cap and then snorts it up his nose.
Seconds later, Harry—a 2nd Lieutenant in the Blue and Royals (British Army) —closes his eyes and shakes his head as the alcohol, shooting straight into his bloodstream, takes effect.
Apparently experts are concerned because vodka snorting is not the safest of past times: “Professor Ian Gilmore, president of the Royal College of Physicians, said: ‘There are all sorts of additives that could cause an allergic reaction which could damage the lungs, mucus membranes of the nose and trachea. It could kill.’ David Nott, who runs the Manor Clinic rehab centre and is a member of the Federation of Drug and Alcohol Professionals, said: ‘Anybody acting in this manner continually will do severe damage, which could be deadly.’ Frank Soodeen from Alcohol Concern added: ‘By by-passing the liver, you run the risk of inflaming the brain and possibly causing long-term damage. It’s a practice to be avoided at all costs. It’s very irresponsible.’”
So yeah, I can see how it’s bad that this kind of behavior by a public figure gets out and how kids who never thought to snort vodka might give it a go (shit, even in my self-destructive late teens I never thought of that), but we’re more concerned about something else. We’re worried about that level of straight-up douchey gay for play behavior. I mean come on if you’re going to put wine glasses on your man-tits and lick your friend’s nipples, at least set your Myspace page to private or don’t take pictures at all. At the very least, don’t trust a friend who was encouraging you to snort booze to not sell the pics to the press. Still, we’re happy we saw these pics because it totally takes some of the mystique of being a Brit-Royal away. We wonder what Helen F’in Mirren would say about this?
I think sometimes I miss out on a lot not living in New York or LA. For instance I’m not near an ocean so not so great seafood. We don’t get first run theatre out here, nor are there drunken celebrities who could show up at a bar and be obnoxious in person. Situation in point, Vince Vaughn and his optical epidermal fun bags treated an LA Bar Crowd to an impromptu Elvis impersonation at The Bordello Club recently.
An eyewitness said: “After the rockabilly band finished a song, Vince must have decided that everyone was dying to hear him sing! He suddenly climbed on stage and talked to a band member off to the side, then grabbed the microphone and announced, ‘I’m gonna do an Elvis song!’ Everyone was excited at first since Vince is a celebrity.
“He started singing ‘Little Sister’, but he was off key and seemed to stumble through the lyrics. The regular crowd was not impressed at all. They actually started booing halfway through the song, and when he was through, one guy yelled out, ‘Hey Vince - don’t quit your day job!’ “
Sweet. I want to be able to heckle drunk stars when they decide to treat me to their musical stylings. The closest I get is when I put a tiny fez on my pug and get her to perform the best of Engelbert Humperdinck…although that only seems to happen after I’m drunk so yeah, I really have no comparison.
Since we’re still in a bit of a post-Emmys hangover, check out this footage of Missy “Misdemeanor” Elliott beyond tipsy on the set of Lil’ Kim’s new video No Matter What They Say.
No, it wasn’t the Belvedere playing tricks on her but her own personal palette of champagne. We’re not sure if Missy is wasted from chugging the bubbly or she has vertigo from watching this footage. But it is nice to see a celebrity being a fun mess vs. the sad, sad messes we’ve bared witness to so recently.
Unable to handle the shame from lending his voice to not one but two equally horrible Garfield movies, Bill Murray drunkenly took it out on the streets of Stockholm. After a few brilliant turns in Rushmore, Lost in Translation and Broken Flowers, Murray took a big artistic step backwards by voicing the CGI version of the lasagna-loving fat cat. But he did manage to redeem himself on Sunday, not by being pulled over in Los Angeles in a BMW but instead in Sweden in a golf cart.
Swedish cops say they stopped the 56-year-old Murray in the slow-moving vehicle and noticed the smell of alcohol on his breath. “He refused to blow in the (breath test) instrument, citing American legislation,” the police told the AP. “So we applied the old method — a blood test. It will take 14 days before the results are in.” In the meantime, enjoy the lutefisk!
Murray, who had been at a golf tournament in Sweden, signed a document admitting that he was driving under the influence, and agreed to let a police officer plead guilty for him if the case goes to court.
But this isn’t the first time Murray has pulled an esoteric stunt after staring in a piece of shit. Apparently 1993’s stinker Mad Dog and Glory caused him to eat 17 boxes of Frankenberry atop a ski lift in Vail. And after Ghostbusters 2 a binge of Push-pops and Wild Turkey in Dubuque. But perhaps the worst case was 1984’s Nothing Lasts Forever, which Murray made up for by making The Razor’s Edge (shudder).
Ashley Tisdale, star of High School Musical, celebrated her 22nd b-day by being dry with some of her best girlfriends. The Disney-riffic blonde had a beach bash full with mani/pedis, kayak rides and a coffee bar. Tisdale and her 20-something friends partied at The Beachbody House which I’m sure smells like Strawberry Shortcake dolls and puffy unicorn stickers.
Not that I advocate being a drunken mess but c’mon dude. You’re hot, blonde and living in LA, on my 22nd birthday I was stocky, facially pierced and living in Towson, MD but I was a lot more interesting. When you party without alcohol no one projectile vomits Zima onto your neighbor’s balcony, no one runs around the parking lot wearing only a fanny pack and you don’t awkwardly make out with a bottle of Frangelico. All you do is be hot and blonde on the beach with perfectly manicured nails. Now where’s the fun in that?
The National Enquirer is reporting the Dave Chappelle was in the hospital for a few hours last Saturday, recovering from a hangoverexhaustion. Huh, exhaustion. The Enquirer goes on to say that this exhaustion is due to traveling. Maybe it is different with celebrities, but was a hospital necessary? I was traveling this past week, during the last few days of my trip, I was up and in airports and various time zones, for about 36 hours straight. In coach class, I might add. What did I do when I got home? I had a snack, and I went to sleep. Good as new.
I wonder what is REALLY going on with Mr. Chappelle that requires the presence of doctors, nurses, and an IV drip? Perhaps hitting the bottle a little hard? But still, a hospital? What do I do when I have had too much to drink? I go home, have a snack, and go to sleep. Good as new.
Not much to say on this one. The amazonian ex-wife of Sly Stallone has checked into rehab for treatment of an undisclosed condition, her manager confirmed Thursday. We never would have guessed she had a drug/alcohol/substance abuse problem since the last time we saw Nielsen she was making out with Flava Flav on VH-1. Looks like rehab isn’t just for twenty-somethings - suck it Lohan!
“Wahoo! The Spice Girls are reuniting!” Cried 1996 after going on a decade-long bender with Dolly the cloned sheep. “Did you hear it Dolly, is it true?” stammered 1996, “Melanie “Sporty Spice” Chisholm, Emma “Baby Spice” Bunton, Melanie “Scary Spice” Brown, Geri “Ginger Spice” Halliwell, and even Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham are to reunite for 11 concerts around the world in December and January?”
“Yes it’s true,” we replied. And from the looks of things they’ll now be known as the Spice Women, spreading their message of disjointed wardrobe choices and uncomfortable shoes throughout the world.”
“Baaaaaah(2)” agreed Dolly waking up the Macarena who was mumbling into a peach daiquiri a few seats down. “Eh, esi, quit your bleating and get me some nachos,” said the Macarena. “And tell me when Boys II Men gets here, they owe me 20 bucks.”
Us folks at Trashy Celebs, well me had a clashing of lives on Saturday as Jordan Knight of New Kids on the Block fame headlined St. Louis Gay Pride. The 14 year-old Amy remembers screaming through a packed arena of hormones as NKOTB pelvic thrusted their way through a back-up track-laced set. However, that was 1988. In 2007, Jordan Knight looks good for his age but was still doing New Kids Songs and performing the same pelvic thrusts with the same amount of fervor.
As I flashed back to the ear-piercing screams of pre-adolescence, I realized I was experiencing the ear-piercing screams of a nearby drag queen. I then wondered why in the world Jordan Knight was in front of me singing Please Don’t Girl at a gay pride event in a mid-sized mid-west town. But then my friend produced another beer for me and I let it go along with my 14 year-old hopes that I would be Mrs. Jordan Knight.
TMZ is reporting that (and it pains me to type this, it really does, but I will work through the pain, proving once again that we read the trash so you don’t have to) a few years ago (and TMZ swears this is from an “extremely well-placed source”) Scott Baio apparently knocked boots with Liza Minnelli.
Of course, maybe this is all just a publicity stunt related to his new show on VH-1, Scott Baio is 45 … and Single. According to the show’s synopsis, Baio is in the midst of a midlife crisis and with “nowhere else to turn,” is seeking help from a life-coach. And of course, VH-1 is there to record it all. Set your TiVos, folks. Maybe David Gest will show up as a guest star! (Gest-star? Ha? Nevermind.)
Kanye West, musician, composer and film critic felt MTV was wrong in snubbing Mel Gibson’s violent Mayan drama Apocalypto at Sunday’s Movie Awards. The MTV Movie Awards, known for their cerebral wit, and subtle social commentary do beat closer to the pulse of the nation than a spectacle such as the Oscars.
“My favorite movie this year was ‘Apocalypto,’ and I love Mel Gibson,” said West. “Sometimes I feel a little like Mel Gibson.”
West went on to say that he does enjoy the occasional drunken, misogynistic, religious tyrants, but no more than the average guy.
Winners of the MTV Movie Awards included Best Movie - Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, Best Kiss - Will Ferrell & Sacha Baron Cohen, “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby” and a shout out to Ms. Cleo with the new category Best Summer Movie You Haven’t Seen Yet, which the Michael Bay directed Transformers won.
Having been around MTV for a few years, West should have known a two and a half hour blood fest without a word of English had no chance up against Pirate sequels and Borat. Get with the program Kanye.
All of celebrity town is fed up with rotating door rehab queen Lindsay Lohan. After crashing her car, getting a DUI, possessing cocaine and going out and getting trashed the next night, Lohan has been daily front-page news. With Lindsay giving rehab another shot on Monday, other kinda famous people are trying their darndest to make some waves as well.
I’ll tumble for ya

Said Ms. Gravity, ” I couldn’t let The United States take the shinning moment once again on the world stage. Plus I had a ten spot on Miss Japan to take it to the house.”
Ellen Barkin predicts future Fuggliness for Sco-Jo
Ellen Barkin told Entertainment Weekly that she fears for the future of Scarlett Johansson’s looks because she doesn’t think the actress will age well.
Barkin tells Entertainment Weekly magazine, “I look at that gorgeous little Scarlett Johansson and I think, ‘Oh, my God, what is that girl going to look like when she’s a woman?” When told of Barkin’s comment, Johansson replied “who?”
