Chris Brown - Daddy to Be or Jailbird

trix — Sat, 07 Mar 2009 00:07:00 GMT

Chris Brown did a little tap-dancing in court and his proceedings have been postponed until April 6.

It seems we may get a little time to figure out if Rhianna really was pregnant or if it was just a sensationalized headline.

Chris does have a "Level 1" protective order laid against him. He is, " Not to annoy, harass, molest, or use any form of violence against anyone."

Um, isn't that how we are all supposed to act, all of the time.

If Chris Brown is charged as guilty, he may end up in jail for 4 years 8 months in jail.

I guess it pays to do unto others as you would have done to you.

Shauna Sand's Husband is Freaking Nuts, Allegedly

Whit Honea — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 21:04:00 GMT

Shauna Sand has a temporary restraining order against her husband Romain Chavent, claiming that he beat her- in front of her daughters no less.

Sand says that Chavent hit her in her stomach, threw her against a wall and punched her in her newly reconstructed breasts.

All of this is awful, obviously, but there's more. Sand also claims that Chavent "threatened to sell nude photos of my children that he took of them when he was babysitting."

WTF? Why the hell is the restraining order temporary?

James Bond Actor Punched His Pregnant Wife?

Sassy Smith — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 12:41:00 GMT

James Bond actor punched his pregnant wife? Wow - that's a pretty serious allegation.

James Bond actor George Lazenby, 68, is in the middle of a nasty divorce battle - he and his current wife, tennis champ Pam Shriver are fighting for custody of their three young kids. Now in the midst of his current mess, Lazenby's ex-wife Christina Master has filed papers, claiming that when she and Lazenby were married, he was a drunk and that he physically abused her (and their daughter Melanie), and even hit her while she was pregnant.

Master alleges that the former 007 star punched her in the face when she was five months pregnant and broke her nose and this was also when their son, Zack, was dying of cancer.

She finally left Lazenby in 1994 and would have done so sooner but she claims he threatened to kill her when she asked for a divorce, so she stayed out of fear for her life and that of her children.

Their grown daughter, Melanie, 34, claims that her dad, "tormented me, humilated me, hurt me physcially, scarred me emotionally." She says that one time her father shoved her head in a toilet and pointed a gun at her after she missed coming home on time.

Lazenby has denied all allegations, saying that they are "contrived, unfounded and without merit."

He added through his rep, "I wish Christina would show me a medical report, x-ray and pictures that show I broke her nose. I never punched her in my life."

He denies the claims made by his daughter as well, saying he was sorry, "that he ignored Melanie from the time she was 12 years old" while he cared for his dying son, and says that he "did not have one drink" while he looked after Zack.

Lazenby's son with his ex-wife, was sick with cancer at 11-years-old and passed away at age 19 in 1994.

He adds, "Melanie is always seeking revenge for that mistake. I never thought a family member would kick me when I was down.

George's wife Pam Shriver has filed court papers claiming that he is an abusive drunk who at times, tried to give their young children alcohol and that he threatened to kill her.

Lazenby says that his wife was hooked on prescription painkillers, sleeping pills and booze and often drove their children while in a "stupor." Shriver has of course denied the allegations. George claims that his current wife purposely contacted his ex-wife and daughter during this year's French Open as she "was preparing secretly for a divorce."

Lazenby said that his wife is using his family against him "but it is not working." He also wondered if his daughter was "on her medication for her bipolar disorder when she met with Pam."

Good Lord - quite a case of she said, he said, and she said. I feel sorry for George and Pam's kids - George Jr, 4, and twins, Kaitlin and Samuel, 3. They're the real victims here.

George Lazenby, played Bond in the movie On Her Majesty's Secret Service, in 1969.

Color me disappointed. These two guys should have been BFF's forever.

Alcohol often causes problems with friends and family. Corey Haim and Corey Feldman have long feuded because of this very problem: on the Haim side, anyway.

Since filming 'The Two Coreys' six months ago, Haim and Feldman have not spoken to each other. During the show, Feldman, Todd Bridges and Pauly Shore confronted Haim about his alcohol abuse. The video is here. Feldman said of Haim, "I don’t feel that he's a safe person to have around my wife and child at the moment, for a multitude of reasons."

Haim, who claims he is 100% clean and sober these days, responded, "I will always love Corey Feldman, but I lost 105 percent respect for him and his wife."

How very sad.

Tim McGraw and the Wife Beaters

Whit Honea — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 20:02:00 GMT

Dear Josh Homme, this is how you kick someone out of a concert.

Tim McGraw was performing on stage last night when he noticed some big, probably drunk, cowboy harassing a lady in the audience and had him pulled onstage before being kicked out. Actually, McGraw pulled him on stage and came pretty close to punching the idiot before returning to the microphone and going on with business as usual. That's professional, Holmes, er, Homme.

Just goes to show you that Tim McGraw is a classy guy, and while he won't stand still for a wife beater, he sure can wear the hell out of one.

Jamie-Lynn In Labor?

Karen — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 13:02:00 GMT

The Mississippi sun is unforgiving to everyone, and Jamie-Lynn Spears is feeling the discomforts of the heat, along with cramping over the last two days. She's surrounded by support though.

"Britney apparently called her recently and ordered her to stay inside, under the air conditioning, as much as possible," the source says. "It was really cute."

The baby is due to arrive at the end of June, unless of course, like a lot of first babies, he or she decides to show up late.

"Jamie Lynn knows first babies have a habit of being late," says the pal. "And she isn't too happy about it. I think she's ready for all this pregnancy stuff to be over and the mommy stuff to start."

I remember full well how uncomfortable the last month was with both my kids. And it sounds as though Braxton-Hicks are kicking in for Jamie-Lynn, not labor just yet.

"She's feeling so large and just feeling all the discomfort that comes with it," reveals a source.

The pregnant teen has also been hit with some mild cramps for the past two days, our insider says. Dad-to-be Casey has been rubbing her back for her when this happens. Doesn't sound as though they are fighting as we previously reported.

"Sounds like some false labor pains," says the friend. "But nothing serious enough to go to the hospital over. They called her doctor, but everything's fine."

Bill Murray Battles Booze Hound Wife

trix — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 20:58:00 GMT

Don't they look happy?

The happy couple, Bill Murray and Jennifer Butler-Murray are still filing for divorce. This is just an update.

It's turning into a he said/she said battle after accusations were hurled from Jennifer's side of the court accusing Bill of abusive behavior, drug and alcohol addiction, and frequent abandonment. Hi pot, this is kettle...

Apparently there was an incident on March 17th and a police report had to be filed after the police were called to investigate reports that she was shouting very loudly at one of her children. The report from the officer states, "I spoke with [Jennifer] and advised her of the complaint. The w/f [white female] seemed to be very impaired and didn't want me on her property anymore, she slammed the door and I left the residence." The report continues, "I then had the complainant meet me at the police station to talk with the juveniles. They informed me that their mother had been drinking heavily and had [become] physical with them."

Is she crazy, doesn't she know violence will never win out? Isn't she devestated that her kids, ages 6-15, didn't trust her not to hurt them and they had to go to the neighbors for protection? Thank goodness for nosy neighbors!

Get some help, lady!

Michael Madsen Goes Berserk in London Hotel with Wife, Daughter

Karen — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 20:35:00 GMT

Reservoir Dogs star Michael Madsen checked into the Dorchester, a London hotel, with his wife and 5 year old daughter. Soon after, police were called to the posh hotel after reports of screaming were made by other hotel guests.

The Sun reports:

“He was apparently totally out of it when he turned up. Then on Sunday afternoon there was a massive disturbance in his room.

“A guest complained that all hell was breaking lose. There was a lot of screaming and shouting and staff called the police. He had a furious row with his woman companion and it was feared they might hurt each other. An ambulance was called because of concerns for his mental health.

“Madsen looked wild-eyed and had lost the plot. He was not violent, but there were serious concerns about his behaviour.”

A Met Police spokesman said no arrests were made and no further action would be taken.

Three-times wed Madsen has five sons and has been married to Deanna Morgan since 1996.

His major movies include Thelma and Louise, Free Willy, and Die Another Day.

He was in London making The Big I Am – filming for which ended on Saturday.

A spokeswoman for Madsen said: “We are aware there was an incident in London, but we have no comment to make.”

How weird. No mention of what happened with the little girl, who was my first concern.

Jamie-Lynn & Casey: Fighting "Like Cats & Dogs"

Karen — Sat, 31 May 2008 20:10:00 GMT

Whether it's where to eat for dinner or what to name the baby, the couple can't seem to agree on anything and they are fighting like crazy, says The National Enquirer.

Jamie wants to name the baby baby girl “Cailynn” (pronounced Kay-Lynn) and Casey wants “Cassie,” a derivative of his name, according to an insider.

“Jamie Lynn is living in a state of fear over not knowing what to expect after she becomes a mother, but luckily she has her mom to lean on for support,” continued the insider. “Still, when Casey doesn’t give Jamie Lynn her way for even simple things like where to eat out, she starts crying and shouting at him, and it almost always turns into a war of words. Their ongoing battles have taken their toll on Jamie Lynn and have pushed her to a near-breaking point.”

Jamie Lynn’s most recent wave of fighting with Casey, 19, comes just after the two sealed the deal on a country home they’ll share with their new arrival. But right now, they can’t even agree on a wedding date.

“Casey wants to marry Jamie Lynn before the baby is born so he can have some control over the rights to the baby’s first photos that will be sold. He wants to be in on any money deals that are made by Jamie Lynn and her mom,” said the source.

Casey Aldridge and Jamie-Lynn Spears are Shackin' Up Y'all!

Casey Aldridge and mom-to-be, 17 year old, Jamie-Lynn Spears, have purchased a home together in the middle of nowhere. Surrounded by woods and accompanied by a quaint red barn, the cookie cutter house is actually located in Kentwood, Louisiana, not nowhere.

Would you let your 17 year old move in with her baby daddy? Seems pretty quick to me - especially since the kids are apparently fighting like cats and dogs.

Rob Lowe's Credibility Questioned in Media

Karen — Wed, 28 May 2008 19:51:00 GMT

Rob Lowe recently dropped the lawsuit he had against former chef Peter Clements, after Clements provided the Lowes with "accurate information."

"Once Peter Clements provided Rob and Sheryl Lowe with accurate information, the Lowes willingly dismissed their claims against him without cost to either side," the papers say.

The "papers" did not disclose what the "accurate information" is. Now I'm just "using" quotes wherever I "want," since this story is "obviously" missing certain elements that are "vital" to what the truth may or "may not" be.

Sources say the "chef" was originally sued because he allegedly backed up the nannies stories, but that turns out to be "false."

Gloria Allred, attorney to the nannies, says Lowe's dismissal of the lawsuit will "blow up in his face."

"Whatever Mr. Lowe has attempted to cook up smells bad and will leave a lasting bad taste in his attempts to go after two innocent nannies who loved and cared for his children," she says.

"It was a big mistake," says a "source" close to the "case."

Shanna Moakler Supports Ex-Nanny In Charges Against Rob Lowe

HerBadMother — Mon, 05 May 2008 14:53:00 GMT

So, that nanny who has charged Rob Lowe and his wife with being big ol' perverts? No, not the first one. The second one. Yeah, that one. Well, she used to nanny for Shanna Moakler and Travis Barker, and Shanna Moakler, for one, is standing right by her.

From People.com:

"I've been friends with Laura for the past ten years – before she was my nanny – and I completely stand by her," Moakler told PEOPLE exclusively.

A source added that Boyce appeared in at least one episode of Meet the Barkers, the MTV show about the unconventional family life of Moakler, a former Playboy centerfold, and her now ex-husband Travis Barker.

Which, you know - it's tempting to disregard the character reference of a former-Playboy-model-turned-reality-TV-star, but why should it? I mean, is Moakler's word any less trustworthy than Rob 'Oh Hai I Videotaped Young Girls Having Sex With Me 4 Fun' Lowe? Really?

Rob Lowe's Wife Facing Sexual Harassment Accusations

HerBadMother — Thu, 01 May 2008 16:08:00 GMT

First Rob Lowe was accused of being a perv - now his wife is, too. And the accusation isn't even coming from that first disgruntled nanny the Lowes accused of extortion - this is another nanny coming forward.

This doesn't look good.

People reports that:

A second former nanny of Rob Lowe filed a countersuit Wednesday in a Los Angeles court, accusing the actor's wife of sexual harassment, according to documents obtained by PEOPLE.

Laura Boyce, who worked for the couple for seven months in 2007, claims Sheryl Lowe created an "extremely sexually offensive and hostile work environment ... behaving in a ... perverted, disgusting and crude manner."

Boyce also alleges that Sheryl used the "n" word in reference to Boyce's boyfriend, who was an NBA player.

Sheryl also allegedly "walked around naked, completely exposing herself" to Boyce, asked about her boyfriend's private parts and talked about Sheryl's sex life with Rob.

This isn't going to help the Lowes in their efforts to paint the first nanny's accusations - which charged both Rob and his wife with perversion - as sour grapes.

Rob Lowe: Pee-Pee Exposer or Exploited Employer?

HerBadMother — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 16:43:00 GMT

Aaaaand it just gets dirtier and dirtier. Jessica Gibson, former nanny to Rob Lowe's kids, filed her suit against the Lowes yesterday, and WOW. Either that household was a total cesspool of grotty, grotty depravity, or Gibson is an evil exploitative bizatch. And/or totally insane. Or both.

TMZ got a hold of the suit, and reported on its contents, and can I say again? WOW:

In her suit, Gibson claims Lowe not only groped her, he repeatedly exposed his "flaccid penis" and his "erect penis" to her, repeatedly asked her "to touch his penis," repeatedly masturbated in front of her, showed her pornographic images on his computer, asked her to give him a massage and tell him dirty stories ... and that's just Rob!

She then says Rob's wife Sheryl walked around naked --"completely exposing herself" -- made "numerous sexually vulgar comments about male genitalia," "would talk about her sex life" with Rob and said that "she would never have a boyfriend because only a married man would want to f*** her."

Gibson says the Lowes paid her $18.00 an hour for her services. She's suing them for sexual assault and battery, sexual harassment, retaliation, unpaid off-the-clock work, overtime wages and unpaid meal periods. She's asking for damages in excess of $50,000. She also said on this morning's "Today" show that she never tried to extort money from the Lowes, as Rob has alleged.

Lowe's lawyer says Gibson's allegations are "simply untrue."

What is one supposed to say about that? Wow, whoa, holy hell and grrroooosssss.

So who's telling the truth? I mean, the nanny stayed there SEVEN YEARS. Why would you stay somewhere seven years if there were penises and boobies being flapped at you all the time? On the other hand, this is Rob Lowe - he of the under-age girls in sex-tape fame - we're talking about. So what's one supposed to believe?

Nanny: Rob Lowe Was A Perv

HerBadMother — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 20:45:00 GMT

I feel badly for Rob Lowe's family that they're facing such an ugly controversy, but you know? I'm maybe feeling a little sorry for the nanny, too. I mean, as Karen reported here earlier today, she's not only saying that she didn't blackmail the Lowe family, she's alleging sexual harassment. And given Rob Lowe's history (that whole dirty video with underage girls thing? anyone, anyone?) I don't know that I'm prepared to discount her claims just 'cause Rob says that I should.

According to the Associated Press, Jessica Gibson stated in legal papers filed Monday in Santa Barbara, California, that Lowe touched her inappropriately several times between September 2005 and January 2008. Which, again - this is a guy who's gotten into trouble in the past for, um, interfering with young women. Sometimes very young women.

So I dunno. On the one hand, celebrities are easy targets for opportunists. On the other, this young woman worked for the Lowes for seven years and was reportedly excellent with their children, which suggests against a set-up. And, as I've already said: ROB LOWE. My husband refers to him as Raw Blow for a reason. He's not exactly Mr. Clean Hands.

We'll have to wait and see as the he-said/she-said plays out, but it seems clear that no matter what the truth? It's all ugly.

Rob Lowe's Former Nanny Speaks Out

Karen — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 14:05:00 GMT

Yesterday on the Today Show, Jessica Gibson, former nanny to Rob Lowe, spoke about her time with the Lowe family and the pending lawsuit against her, another nanny and a chef. She spoke about the alleged sexual battery and abuse she suffered at the hands of Rob himself.

TMZ reported:

Gibson did say that she never blackmailed Rob to the tune of $1.5 mil, and claimed that she didn't call the cops despite the alleged sexual battery during her seven-year stint with the Lowes because she "loved the children, and I needed the job." She wouldn't go into what Lowe supposedly did to her.

Gibson admitted writing the emails to the Lowe family but said they were meant to "appease" the Lowes.

Rob Lowe Sues Two Nannies and A Chef

Karen — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 18:33:00 GMT

Sounds like a movie title, doesn't it? Well it's Rob Lowe's reality right now. The actor is suing two former nannies and a chef for trying to extort money out of him and his wife.

The Huffington Post recently published Lowe's story regarding the matter, in which he described one nanny of trying to "attempt to damage and humiliate" his family. From the story:

A former employee is demanding my wife Sheryl and I pay her $1.5 million by the end of the week or she will accuse us both of a vicious laundry list of false terribles. It is an attempt to damage and humiliate not only my wife and me, but our two young sons as well. My family is devastated at this betrayal; this woman worked in our home and traveled with us off and on for seven years, without complaint. In fact, she left other jobs to return to work for us three different times. Several weeks ago she quit abruptly, leaving us without a replacement.

Lowe goes on to share text messages from the nanny, and it's clear that she is a few towels short of a linen closet now that she is suddenly crying abuse. Lowe is clearly concerned for his wife and especially, his two young children.

It is indeed a pretty sad state of affairs when someone decides to sue merely for financial gain. We live in such a litigous society and the true victims are getting the raw end of the deal.

Fans Trying To Save Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch

Karen — Wed, 12 Mar 2008 16:01:00 GMT

Recently we learned that Michael Jackson might lose Neverland Ranch if he doesn't come up with the $25 million necessary to keep it.

Crazed Jacko fans Liam Collins, 29, and David Bone, 26, placed a bid on the Neverland Ranch in an effort to save the property. Their plan is to rent it back to Jackson and his family once it's saved.

Not to be mean or anything, but Liam and David are nuts if they think he'll pay their rent either. Seeing as they have more money than brains, I really think they ought to give me their money and I'll decide where to put Jackson. Then I'll pocket the other $24,999,900 dollars.

Michael Jackson to Perform at Grammy Awards?

Karen — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 22:04:00 GMT

Fox News is reporting the posibility, but despite sources insisting the pop star has been rehearsing, even this reporter is unsure:

"A lot could change between now and Sunday night, but the scenario that’s been described for me goes something like this: Justin Timberlake starts the show singing along with a tape of Frank Sinatra. The next act up is Jackson, performing one of his hits from "Thriller," possibly even re-creating the dance number for "Billie Jean" he made famous at the Motown 25th anniversary show in 1983.

Will it happen? Who knows. Jackson, my sources insist, has been rehearsing at a Burbank studio and keeping away from the Staples Center, where the Grammy show takes place."

While Mom Lynne Spears is dealing with her oldest, (I'm personally still on a Britney strike until she gets better), younger daughter Jamie Lynn decided to have a Superbowl party.

Jamie Lynn invited several friends over, including boyfriend Casey Aldridge.

Star magazine reports: Shortly after 2:00 p.m. on Feb. 3, a Jeep SUV with Ole Miss University and Delta Delta Delta sorority decals on the back window pulled up to Serenity's gates and five college age women got out.

“They were all laughing. They looked really happy and excited to be at the house, like they hadn't seen Jamie Lynn in a while,” says a witness.

Hey, maybe she was allowed to have a few friends over. I mean, it's not like she can get pregnant again. Sounds to me like it was a small get-together with some friends. Big deal.

Michael Jackson's Debt To Wyclef Jean

Karen — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 17:03:00 GMT

Michael Jackson's debt is no secret. He owes in excess of $300 million dollars.

Wyclef Jean says Michael owes him thousands of dollars from production work they did in 1997. "Michael Jackson owes me money," he said. "Mike, holla at me. You know what it is."

"We did a couple of sessions," Wyclef explained. "It was a long time ago now, but I still haven't been paid. Mike knows the money he owes me. I just wish he'd get in touch."

Well Wyclef, don't count on it. Jackson is too busy acting like a complete lunatic and CPS never does anything about it. One day those kids will grow up and write autobiographies that will say what really goes on in their "family."

Is this man untouchable?

50 Cent thinks so. He says the rumors about the two working together on MJ's "comeback" are false: "It's not true. Anyway, what can you possible teach Michael Jackson about music? Nothing."
