Denis Leary to Jenny McCarthy: Bring It

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 20:05:00 GMT

Looks like the feud between Denis Leary and Jenny McCarthy isn't quite over yet. As you may remember, McCarthy called Leary "obviously stupid" for making jokes about autism in his book Why We Suck: A Feel-Good Guide to Staying Fat, Loud, Lazy and Stupid. Well it appears Leary may have feelings after all, and is swinging his little arms back at McCarthy.

"I can guarantee you that Jenny McCarthy did not read the book and at this point I refuse to continue to be the punching bag for autism because I’m not even going to stand here on my own defense. I don’t think it’s number four on the New York best sellers because people want to laugh at somebody who is making fun of autistic kids."

"My motivation, which I’ve said a million times, for writing the chapter was because I have friends who have autistic children and I think it’s ridiculous that there’s people out there who are bad parents and are trying to solve the bad behavior of their spoiled brat children by getting a low-level diagnosis. It’s true, if people don’t want to believe it that’s fine, but that’s what I was writing about."

Leary's book was quoted as saying people diagnosed with autism are “stupid. Or lazy. Or both.” McCarthy, who has said that her six-year-old son Evan was recently cured of autism, shot back, "First of all, let me tell you, the autism community has received probably 10,000 emails [saying] ‘Go kill him!’ ‘Go yell at him. [But] it’s so hard to even get up enough juice in me or energy in me to even try to fight someone that is obviously stupid.”

Leary may learn the hard way that hell hath no fury like an ex-Playmate mom protecting her child against the barbs of a B-list actor. Time to get up your juice and take out that can of whoop-ass, Jenny.

Rescue Me: Tatum O'Neal Arrested For Crack

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 02 Jun 2008 15:15:00 GMT

Academy Award winning actress Tatum O'Neal was arrested Sunday evening for buying crack cocaine near her home in Manhattan.

O'Neal, who is currently starring in the FX drama Rescue Me, was busted after she was seen handing money to a street dealer. When police searched her they found two bags of drugs - one with crack, one with regular cocaine - and an unused crack pipe.

The Daily News quotes a source as saying the actress initially told police that she "was doing research for a part," but changed her story after the drugs were found. "I've been clean for a long time," she reportedly pleaded as she asked cops to give her a break, the source said. "Today was the first time I was relapsing, but you guys saved me! Can you let me go?"

O'Neal's arrest comes after a public warning she issued to Britney Spears last year, in which she urged the singer to get help and to keep her children out of the media spotlight. O'Neal's previous drug use led to her losing custody of her three children to ex-husband John McEnroe back in 1995.

"I did everything that she doesn't want to do," O'Neal said in her statement regarding Spears. "I did the drug testing ... It was very humbling, but I wanted those kids back."

"Not being able to see my kids is like part of me is missing," she continued. "Part of my soul is missing."
