Confirmed: Bruno's Assault On Eminem Was Staged!

Josh loposer — Tue, 02 Jun 2009 19:35:00 GMT

In case you hadn't figured it out by now, Sacha Cohen will not be charged with aggravated assault for his "accidental" teabagging of Eminem at Sunday's MTV Movie Awards - it was all staged and rehearsed.

Comedy writer Scott Auckerman of Mr. Show with Bob and David fame has come clean so that the rest of humanity can now go about the rest of their lives. From his blog:

"Yes, the Bruno/Eminem incident was staged. That’s all anyone wants to talk about, so let’s get it out of the way. They rehearsed it at dress and yes, it went as far as it did on the live show then. Okay, you can stop reading this blog now!"

Keep in mind, those last words were his, not mine.

So, to answer the question, what did Cohen's daughter Olive think about all this, I have to wonder. Is it better to explain to your 20 month-old daughter: daddy accidentally teabagged Mr. Eminem, OR daddy stuck his butt in that man's face on purpose because it's funny?

Dennis Quaid and Family Leaving Hollywood

Karen — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 19:04:00 GMT

No he is not retiring, but the actor says it's a "no-brainer" to join family in Houston Texas.

"We have a lot of family there and we have a really nice plot of land," he says. "We have 30 or 40 friends and family members within two miles of us. Its kind of a no-brainer."

It was apparent when his twins were in medical crisis with a heparin overdose, that the couple are very private.

"They went through a medical catastrophe. Thank God it had a happy ending," Dennis says.

Quaid and his wife have developed a foundation to help prevent such medical errors and was recently in Washington to speak to Congress about it: "We would like to start by bar coding," he says. "With a bar code, [a nurse] can scan the medicine and scan the bracelet of the patient. Scan her own tag and if theres a mistake, it will come up."

Smart. I hope it catches on and works. We at Famecrawler wish the the very best with their upcoming move.

The actor sees the release of three films this year: "The Express," "Smart People" and "The Vantage." Quaid recently received the Galaxy Award.

Mr. Quaid Goes to Washington

Actor Dennis Quaid testified in front of congress this week following the accidental overdose of blood thinners administered to his newborn twins in November by the staff at Los Angeles' Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. He urged Congress to take a stronger federal role in dealing with pharmaceutical companies- something that the FDA has argued against.

Quaid argued that not doing so would turn the public into "uninformed and uncompensated lab rats.

"Like many Americans, I believed that a big problem in our country was frivolous lawsuits," he added. "But now I know that the courts are often the only path to justice."

Good luck, Dennis.

Michelle & Matilda Driven From Their NY Home?

Sassy Smith — Thu, 01 May 2008 11:03:00 GMT

Michelle Williams and Matilda Rose have reportedly been hounded so much by the paparazzi, that the mother and daughter are being driven from their home in Brooklyn, NY.

Fox News is claiming that the former fiance of the late Heath Ledger is constantly bombarded by the paparazzi and has not been able to live her life in peace with daughter Matilda, 2 1/2. The actress is considering leaving her NY neighborhood.

When Williams and Ledger were together, they were known as "pillars" of their Brooklyn community. Ledger eventually moved out and returned to Manhattan. He passed away in January of this year.

Hopefully, if Brooklyn is where Michelle's heart is, and where she wants to continue to raise Matilda, the paps will back off and let them peacefully exist and live a "normal" life.

Mary-Kate Olsen Getting Death Threats From Heath Fans

HerBadMother — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 12:42:00 GMT

Mary Kate Olsen has reportedly beefed up her security detail after receiving bags of hate mail and death-threat phone calls from fans of Heath Ledger who blame Olsen for his death. Ledger, who was separated from the Michelle Williams, mother of his daughter Matilda, at the time, died of a prescription drug overdose in January.

PopCrunch.com writes that a tabloid report will soon outline the details of the relationship between Mary Kate and Ledger, and the disturbing response from fans:

“A lot of people who knew Heath and Mary-Kate in his last months know that they were partying together constantly, it wasn’t hard to connect the dots and run a line between Heath hooking up with Mary-Kate and his sad decline,” a celebrity mole reveals in a new tabloid report.

“One crazed fan sent her threatening letters. Another made menacing phone calls,” according to a friend of the actress. “Mary-Kate’s gotten more reclusive, paranoid and afraid to walk the streets than ever.”

Creepy. Just, creepy. On all counts.

Heath Ledger's Most Prized Possession, STOLEN

HerBadMother — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 21:22:00 GMT

Wow. It just doesn't get much more banally evil than stealing from the dead.

Apparently, Heath Ledger's well-loved 1975 green Komi van was stolen around the time of the actor's death, and although Heath's dad has made a public plea for its return, it's still missing.

The vintage van is apparently worth upwards of $70,000, in part due to the celebrity connection. Although I imagine that it's gonna be hard to dump, now that the world knows that some scumbag stole it and refused to return it to Heath's grieving family.

Feds Investigating Heath's Doctors

HerBadMother — Thu, 28 Feb 2008 15:29:00 GMT

Federal authorities are investigatign the doctors who prescribed drugs to Heath Ledger. Ledger - who left behind a two-year old daughter, Matilda - died earlier this year as the result of a toxic combination of prescription narcotics.

According to People.com:

Doctors in California and Texas are under investigation by federal drug authorities in the matter of Heath Ledger's death...

“We are investigating doctors in Los Angeles and Texas with regard to Ledger’s prescriptions,” a source tells PEOPLE.

However, the source did not say whether any wrongdoing is involved, saying, “We don’t know yet. The agents were there this week, and we are waiting to hear from them.”

It's about time. I mean, it seems likely that somebody screwed up somewhere if Heath was taking toxic combinations of prescription drugs. And that's a screw-up that nobody wants to see repeated.

Michelle Williams: The Future is Uncertain

Karen — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 16:33:00 GMT

Yesterday Sassy wrote about Michelle Williams interview in Wonderland Magazine, an interview that was done BEFORE Heath Ledger's death in January. Today I bring you a few more quotes from the same interview, where Michelle talks about her future.

"Obviously so much has changed for me in the last few months that I don't really have an idea of what my life is going to be," Williams told the magazine.

"I thought I knew certain things and it turned out that I didn't, so I don't really try and anticipate so much anymore.

"I'm not making any bets on the future."Williams talked about how she has had to adjust since her breakup with Heath Ledger:

"There's been a lot going on in my personal life and part of me is ... I don't know. I shouldn't talk about it but it's like I'm re-emerging back into the world or something," she said.

One good thing that came from the breakup was the fact that she has been getting less attention from the paparazzi (until Heath's death).

"I have to say it's suddenly got a lot easier, like, in the last couple of months," she said.

"When you're in a relationship with somebody who is also a public personality then it doubles the attention from the media.

"When you minus that equation it's just less enticing. That's been a real bonus. It's the plus side of the break-up for me."

As for raising daughter Matilda on her own, "It's not easy," she said.

Williams said while working six days a week last year filming Incendiary with Ewan McGregor in London she made a special effort to ensure she and Matilda spent quality time together.

"My only days off were Sundays and as much as I'd want to pass out, I'd try to take her out somewhere fun so she didn't associate me with boredom," Williams said.

After an emotional and touching memorial to Heath Ledger at his favorite beach in Australia, his ex fiance and daughter make their way back home.

Michelle Williams and little girl Matilda, are back in the U.S. to begin their lives without Heath. Williams tells Matilda that "Daddy went away" in an effort to explain why the 2-year-old cannot see her daddy. Until she's older, she won't grasp the situation. Michelle will have to keep Heath's memory alive for her child and hopefully Matilda will realize how much she was loved by her father.

Brad Renfro - Accidental Heroin Overdose

Sassy Smith — Sat, 09 Feb 2008 21:34:00 GMT

Brad Renfro was found dead in his apartment on January 15, after reportedly being out with friends drinking the night before. The coroner has ruled that his cause of death is the result of an accidental heroin/morphine overdose. The drugs were apparently injected. There had been speculation that Renfro had committed suicide - days before his death he had gotten a large tattoo across his back that read "F*ck y'all," however that has been ruled out.

Brad's funeral and burial were held in East Tennessee, where he grew up.

The 25-year-old actor left behind a four-year-old son, Yamato, who resides with his mom in Japan. Brad made his last movie, "The Informers" this past year and it's scheduled for release on October 30th.

Heath's Death Accidental: But Who's Responsible For The Accident?

HerBadMother — Thu, 07 Feb 2008 00:07:00 GMT

Only hours after the results of Heath Ledger's autopsy showed his death to be accidental due to a toxic combination of prescription drugs, the Drug Enforcement Agency has gotten involved and will be investigating Ledger's death.

A statement issued this morning by the Office of the New York City Medical Examiner declared Ledger's death "the result of acute intoxication by the combined effects of oxycodone, hydrocodone, diazepam, temazepam, alprazolam and doxylamine," and concluded the manner of death an "accident resulting from the abuse of prescription medications." The 'abuse' was reported to have taken the form of a toxic combination of the drugs, rather than an overdose, and the DEA wants to know who prescribed those drugs, and how Heath ended up with such a toxic combination. Did the prescriptions come from one doctor, or multiple doctors? TMZ reported that it spoke to three clinical psychiatrists, all of whom said it would be "highly unusual" and "reckless" for one physician to prescribe this combination of meds, and suggested that more than one doctor would have to have been involved.

According to officials, the DEA has requested copies of Ledger's autopsy as well as the original police report from the crime scene.

Heath's Family Releases A Statment To His Official Cause of Death

Sassy Smith — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 16:13:00 GMT

Heath's dad Kim, released a statement on behalf of the Ledger family concerning his official cause of death. It reads:

We remain humble as parents and a family, among millions of people worldwide who may have suffered the tragic loss of a child. Few can understand the hollow, wrenching, and enduring agony parents silently suffer when a child predeceases them. Today's results put an end to speculation, but our son's beautiful spirit and enduring memory will forever remain in our hearts.

While no medications were taken in excess, we learned today the combination of doctor-prescribed drugs proved lethal for our boy. Heath's accidental death serves as a caution to the hidden dangers of combining prescription medication, even at low dosage.

Our family enjoyed an extremely happy two week visit with Heath just prior to the New Year. Those recent precious days will stay with us forever. We as a family feel privileged to have some of his amazing magic moments captured in film. To most of the world Heath was an actor of immeasurable talent and promise. To those who knew him personally, Heath was a consummate artist whose passions also included photography, music, chess and directing. We knew Heath as a loving father, as our devoted son, and as a loyal and generous brother and friend.

We treasure our beautiful granddaughter Matilda (to our dear Michelle) as well as an unbelievably wonderful network of close friends, forever, around the world. Families rarely experience the uplifting, warm and massive outpouring of grief and support as have we, from every corner of the planet. This has deeply and profoundly touched our hearts and lives. We are eternally grateful.

At this moment we respectfully request the worldwide media allow us time to grieve privately, without the intrusions associated with press and photography.
