Off of gossip rocks:

Kate Hudson has been barred from getting in touch with ex-boyfriend Owen Wilson as he recovers from his recent suicide attempt. The New York Daily News says the actress's attempts to get in touch with the troubled star have been rebuffed by Wilson's entourage on the grounds that they "don't think Kate is good for him"

"Kate has been trying to get in touch with Owen and is distraught that the family doesn't want her anywhere near him," the Daily News sites a source as saying. "She is very frustrated."

Hudson and Wilson began a romance after shooting the hit comedy You, Me and Dupree but the relationship failed despite their best efforts, including a visit by Wilson to Australia while Hudson shot Fool's Gold in Australia last year. Wilson was hospitalised in Los Angeles last week after a suicide attempt that was incorrectly attributed to a drug overdose.

Samuel L. Jackson gave paparazzi hanging around Wilson's hospital a verbal lashing while visiting the recovering Wedding Crashers star. "I came here to visit Owen Wilson, get the **** away from me, alright," he said to waiting celebrity photograhers. When one paparazzo apparently apologised, Jackson fired up again. "Yeah, everybody's sorry, why the **** are you guys here?" he said. When the cameramen said they were "there for the story", Jackson sarcastically asked "what story is that?"

Maybe we were a little quick to accuse Jennifer Aniston of crashing Courteney Cox's Hawaiian family vacation. To hear Star magazine tell it, she bought their love fair and square, just like Richard Gere bought Julia Roberts. "Jennifer pays for everything all the time," a source tells Star. "If she plans a vacation, you know she's footing the bill for her entire entourage."

The list of perks when you join Explore With Aniston™ includes booze, air, a car service, accommodations, food, booze, activities, spa treatments, booze and pretty outfits. "She's like the sugar daddy everyone wishes they had, except she's a woman!" a very excited source says.

"You could call her sugar mama!" Well, maybe you could if she had babies. This is around the spot where this story started to sound like Friends fan-fiction, but there are actually real women who've taken these outrageously decadent J-cations. The guest list includes actress Andrea Bendwald (Madison's mom, Stick It), producer Kristin Hahn (The Departed and... that's pretty much it) and her yoga instructor.

But it's exactly this suddenly humming social life that keeps Jen from finding a replacement Prince Charming. "Her friends really enjoy themselves, but I bet they're afraid that she'll find a serious boyfriend," the insider speculates, alleging they sabatoge her dates. If that's true, then they must have been shaking in their Louboutins during Jen's dinner with Bradley Cooper. But the all-expenses-paid pack had nothing to fear from Brad 2, her co-star in the upcoming He's Just Not That Into You movie. While the two had dinner at her L.A. home, her rep said it was certainly not a party for two. "It was not a romantic dinner and they were not alone," her rep said. After Bradley reads about Jen's incentive package, he might want to reevaluate that.

Britney Spears has hit back at actress Keira Knightley for slamming her infamous flashing underwear incident.

The Pirates of the Caribbean star branded Spears a "slut" after she was photographed flashing her underwear earlier this year (07).

But the singer laughed off the comments, adding, "Who's Keira Knightley? I guess she must need the publicity".

Hmmmm!

Brad: Kids are the most fun I've had

Hollywood hunk Brad Pitt has described his role as a father as the 'most fun I've ever had'.The Troy star had his first child with lover Angelina Jolie last year, although the 43-year-old actor has also become a father to three adopted children with Angelina. 'It's the most fun I've ever had and also the biggest pain in the ass I've ever experienced,' he said. 'It makes me much more efficient because when I work I really have to focus, I know I've less time to get things done. Actually I'm quite pleased by it,' he added. The couple arrived in Italy last week for the Venice Film Festival, where Brad is promoting his latest film 'The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford', which follows the last 12 months of the infamous outlaw. And Brad has admitted he is rather proud of his latest movie. He described it as a 'delicious' film. 'It sits and breathes like good wine, and it's ultimately my favourite kind of film-making,' he added.

'Wilson discharged from hospital'

Hollywood actor Owen Wilson has been discharged from hospital a week after an apparent suicide attempt at his home in Los Angeles, according to reports. People magazine reports that the actor is now at home and is being supervised around the clock. A source close to the Starsky and Hutch star told the magazine: "Owen is in bad mental shape but said he is thankful to be alive."He knows he came close to ending his life, and he is happy that he was saved from himself. He is basically at home with people watching him 24/7," the source added. The star, who has asked for time to "heal in private", has pulled out of comedy movie Tropic Thunder as he seeks to recover from his problems. Preparations for the film, directed by friend Ben Stiller, were underway.

TomKat 'extortion' man to plead guilty

A man charged with attempting to extort over $1 million (£0.5 million) from Hollywood couple Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes is expected to plead guilty later today. David Hans Schmidt, 47, could face up to two years in federal prison and a $250,000 (£124,000) fine after he agreed the single-count guilty plea, the Associated Press news agency reports. He is expected to plead guilty to sending communications for purposes of extortion. Mr Schmidt allegedly demanded money from the A-list pair in return for illegally obtaining thousands of images of their wedding in collaboration with 33-year-old data recovery expert Marc Lewis Gittleman. The criminal complaint claimed the latter stole the images from the damaged hard drive of the wedding's official photographer, before assisting the services of Mr Schmidt to help him gain money for them. The press have dubbed Mr Schmidt the 'Sultan of Sleaze' for his previous attempts at procuring money from celebrities.

A source said, "The relationship had been rocky recently. They tried very hard to make it work but finally decided to separate. They just grew apart. ... They have a beautiful daughter and they are both committed to being great parents."Previously, Ledger had been linked to Aussie hottie (and much older woman) Naomi Watts.

off of TMZ:

A new tell-all about Anna Nicole Smith from former MSNBC journalist Rita Cosby about alleges that Howard K. Stern and Larry Birkhead were secret gay lovers.

The book, "Blonde Ambition: The Untold Story Behind Anna Nicole Smith's Death" describes an alleged brief tryst between Stern and Birkhead, reports the Daily News. Jackie Hatten, described as a friend of Anna Nicole's, claims she found Stern and Birkhead witht heir shirts off and pants around their ankles, engaged in oral sex.

The book also accuses the feuding baby daddies of cutting a secret deal between them in which Birkhead would get custody of Dannielynn in return for Stern being named executor of Anna Nicoles estate.

Both Birkhead and Stern deny all of Cosby's accusations. Birkhead said that he was disgusted by Cosby's claims that he and Stern were gay lovers. "If she printed that then she is really getting sued," he said.

Stern's lawyer Lin Wood called the book "false and defamatory."

Courtney Love has to have her fingers in everything, doesn't she? Attention whore.

off of ONTD:

Courtney Love said that Amy Wino is the biggest cokehead she's ever seen in her entire crackhead life.

Court said, “Amy does more drugs than anyone I’ve known. I’ve been with lots of people when they’ve taken coke, including stars like LINDSAY LOHAN and KATE MOSS. But I’ve never seen anyone take as much coke as Amy. Even I wasn’t that bad.”

"But I’ve never seen anyone take as much coke as Amy. Even I wasn’t that bad.”

Court also claims Wino speedballs with heroin and cocaine.

Wino and her deadbeat husband are due back in London this week after relaxing and getting sorted out in St. Lucia.

Court is like the Rosie O'Donnell of crackheads. First she gave her opinion on the Owen Wilson thing and now Wino. It's pretty scary if Courtney looks at you while you're snorting your 100th line and tells you to "slow down."

On a lighter note

I can't take much more of the sadness goin on with my man Owen.....so here's some Beastie Boys to make it all better with Sure Shot! Enjoy!!!

Owen, Owen, Owen....

You crazy, silly fool...why couldn't you realize that you were the rebound guy and not the for real guy? I still love you tho....

off of crazy days & nights:

Last night I had a discussion with a woman who spoke to Owen several times over the past few weeks, was at his home this past week and has been in touch with Owen's brother Andrew over the past few days. This is what she had to say, almost word for word. Some of it is in the tabloids, but much of it isn't. This is a woman who has worked on several Wilson brother films and is very close to all three of them.

Owen did indeed try to commit suicide over Kate, but its not totally her fault. They WERE in love. Because of Kate's divorce, she was the one insisting that everything stay very down-low and approached the situation like "will my big strong boyfriend protect me from the gossips?", which is why he went way overboard and threatened to sue anyone that talked about their relationship breaking up her marriage to Chris Robinson. Owen was pestering Kate to marry him.

She was VERY committed to Owen and their relationship, but had no intention of agreeing to marriage seeing as how she married so young and wasn't even divorced yet . This made Owen very frustrated and he acted out by leaving her every so often and messing with other girls. She eventually got tired of the yo-yoing and broke up with him for real.

Like most volatile type relationships, they were still messing around even though they never really got back together. One of those "they love each other so much they can't stay away, but neither is willing to do what it takes to make the relationship really work" type of things. So this was going on until Kate went crazy for Dax Shepard. Its killing Owen because Kate is obviously head over heels for Dax. She is even putting Dax ahead of her own son, which she wouldn't do for Owen (remember she insisted the relationship be kept quiet for her son's sake). She's even whispering to friends that Dax is "the one" and she might marry him f he asked and it got back to Owen. She stopped taking Owen's calls and no more booty calls, so Owen went into a pretty bad depression.

Contrary to popular opinion, Owen is as moody and dark as his brother Luke, he's just not dramatic with it. He just gets very quiet and withdrawn when he's low and is not an asshole about it. Also contrary to opinion, Owen is not a doper. He'll take a toke or snort a line to be sociable, but he's not a regular user and he does not offer it in his home when he has parties and stuff. So the whole drug thing isn't really true. He did take some pills and mix it with alcohol (maybe more stuff, not sure) to try to "go to sleep", which is what he told his brother Andrew. My contact says as far as she knows it was just pills, but its possible that he may have slit his wrists as well, but she doesn't believe he did.

She's going to try and find out today and let me know tonight. Owen has been drunk and hiding in his house for a week or more and his brother was there just to kinda keep an eye on him. She also said that Andrew had called several friends including her to come by to try to cheer him up or talk sense into him, which is how she knows this has been going on for at least a week, but Owen refused to see anyone, and just stayed locked up in his room.

So in summary of what I've been told, Owen went into a depression over losing Kate for real, even though its his fault as well. His suicide attempt was more of an immature "you won't come back to me so I'm going to kill myself" thing. Not that attempted suicide for that reason is not serious, but the loss of the relationship is more than half his fault and Kate probably shouldn't be totally blamed for it.

Oh yeah, as an addition. Luke really did have a thing for Kate as well, though nothing happened between him and Kate. Just some sibling rivalry BS really.

Not my Butterscotch Stallion!!!

according to the Arrow, 93.7, here in Houston, Owen Wilson was found unconcious by his brother, having tried to kill himself. There were slits on his wrist and an empty bottle of pills nearby. More as this develops....

Britney fleeing with her kids?

off of ONTD:

The 'Toxic' singer - who is currently battling ex-husband Kevin Federline to be the primary carer of 23-month-old Sean Preston and Jayden James, 11 months - wants to move to London and begin a new life with the boys.

However, Britney knows she won't be able to take them out of the country without Kevin's permission so she is planning a dramatic TV disappearing act. The troubled star wants to vanish in a spectacular stunt at the end of her performance at the MTV Video Music Awards in Las Vegas and re-appear in London.

She hopes the Houdini-style act will confuse everyone, including Kevin, and give her the time she needs to fly to the UK.

The trick, which is due to happen next month, has been arranged by Britney's reported new love interest, magician Criss Angel, and the pair spent two nights last week perfecting the move.A source told America's OK! magazine, "She thinks her only hope is to move to London and start afresh. She wants those boys more than anything in the world and it's heart-breaking."

Despite her attempts to keep Sean and Jayden, Kevin will still be able to claim the children from the UK due to the Hague Convention, which allows parents to seek the return of, or access to, their child.

US divorce lawyer Raoul Felder said, "You can run, but you can't hide. If you go to most foreign countries you come under the Hague Convention."There would be a hearing in London and he would award the father the children."

Britney and Kevin's divorce was finalized last month and they were awarded joint custody of the boys.However, Kevin is now seeking full custody saying Britney - who recently spent time in rehab for alcoholism and alleged post-natal depression - is unfit to care for the children.

ok, there are better places and ways to vanish with the kids but she'd have to stay vahished. But it does make sense about her talking to Criss Angel (douchebag)...but what wuold he know? My suggestion is for her to go to Dubai, ain't nobody gonna mess with here there, she could be happy and could'nt be touched....or hit that large ship ResidenSea, where ppl live in mulitmillion dollar splendor on a ship that cruises around the world going from port to port. Totally private!

One more question....what about the two kids FederSlime had with Char? Why isn't he pursuing total custody of them or were they just practice kids? Douchebag wants $$$.

Did you hear that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes sleep in separate bedrooms? Well, it's true, at least according to Star Magazine. I know that probably doesn't come as too big of a shock if you really stop and think about it. What comes as a shock to me though is that Katie decorated her room in pastels with lots of stuffed animals and a miniature horse carousel which she rides when she's sad. I wonder how many engines have been burned out on that thing.

off of foxnews:

There is a "strong possibility" the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office will not file felony charges against Lindsay Lohan in connection with her two DUI arrests, law enforcement sources told TMZ.com.

Charges may be filed Wednesday, and the D.A. is leaning toward rejecting three possible felonies, TMZ reported. The D.A. almost certainly will not file cocaine charges in connection with Lohan's DUI bust Memorial Day weekend in Beverly Hills, the site said.

As for her July 24 arrest in Santa Monica, the D.A. could charge Lohan with felony cocaine possession, and bringing cocaine into a correctional facility — also a felony. But the D.A. is inclined not to file those felony charges either, sources told TMZ.

Lohan, 21, was arrested for investigation of misdemeanor driving under the influence and with a suspended license and felony cocaine possession after last month's pre-dawn chase that ended in Santa Monica.

The starlet is currently a patient at the posh Cirque Lodge drug and alcohol rehab center in Sundance, Utah.

Lohan was also arrested May 26 on suspicion of driving under the influence after crashing her car into a curb on Sunset Boulevard.

Her arraignment is set for Friday.

off of handbag gossip:

Hollywood wild child Lindsay Lohan is rumoured to be pregnant rather than in rehab.

An unnamed friend of the actress suggested reports the Mean Girls star has entered rehab was a front to conceal a pregnancy.

The source told the US edition of OK! Magazine: 'It wouldn't be the first time she's had a pregnancy scare.'

According to the Metro, there have been no sightings of Lindsay at the Cirque Lodge rehab centre in Utah where she is supposed to be receiving treatment to overcome her heavy drinking and partying.

And attempts by the newspaper to get her spokesman to confirm her location were refused.

But Lindsay will have to emerge from hiding soon to attend court on August 24th to answer charges of driving under the influence of drugs relating to a crash in July.

The 21-year-old's former bodyguard, Tony Almeida, has placed the blame for Lindsay's wild behaviour on her publicity-hungry parents.

Both Dina and Michael Lohan have regularly appeared on US television during their daughter's fall from grace and Mr Almeida says they pushed her to keep working to fund their lifestyles.

He told In Touch magazine: 'From a young age, [Lindsay] dealt with her father's physical, emotional and drug abuses as well as her mother's drinking.

'Lindsay was the family cash cow - and she [Dina] resented it. They counted on her to pay their bills...I saw Lindsay exhausted, begging her mother for some time off.'

I know who killed my career....

I "borrowed" this from four four cuz it's funny as hell.....drink every time Blohan says 'fuck'! Srsly, where was she acting? I think they just followed her with a camera.

Johnny Depp to be in the movie version of Dark Shadows? I'm about to drown in my own juices!!! off of celebitchy:

When Johnny Depp revealed in past interviews time after time that has a young boy he longed to play the character of Barnabas Collins from the vampiric soap opera, “Dark Shadows,” I wonder if he ever thought that one day he’d actually get his wish?

Sources close to Variety have reported that Depp and Graham King’s GK Films have finally closed a deal to develop a feature based on the cult series.

A rights deal just closed with the estate of Dan Curtis, the producer/director who created the soap that aired weekdays on ABC, from 1966 to 1971. Depp and King will produce with David Kennedy, who ran Dan Curtis Prods. until Curtis died last year of a brain tumor. Infinitum-Nihil’s Christi Dembrowski served as the point person on the deal.

Variety

Yup. I’d say that about seals the deal.

“Dark Shadows” was a campy soap that featured all things Halloween - monsters, a few witches here and there, zombies, a pack of werewolves and yes - vampires, and even though it hasn’t seen the light of TV by anything worthy in years (although the Sci-Fi Channel did run the original series back in the late 1990’s), it continues to have - what else? - a cult following, including a Dark Shadows Festival (held annually since 1983), which is a two day event scheduled to take place this year at the Westchester Marriott in Tarrytown, New York on August 17 and 18.

The news that Depp has signed on to create a new - and much more current - “Dark Shadows” is probably welcome news to some, but there are those who will always prefer the original. No news yet on when we can expect to see the development come full term, but Depp fans can look forward to seeing him in “Sweeney Todd” next year.

Usher married after all!

Usher and fiancee get married after all

August 4, 2007
BY STELLA FOSTER Sun-Times columnist
Despite canceling their nuptials scheduled to occur earlier this week, the on-again, off-again wedding of Usher and his pregnant fiancee was finally on -- and held quietly Friday, sources told Stella's Column late Friday night.
The multiplatinum singer married his longtime girlfriend, Tameka Foster, who is several years older than he, during a private ceremony in his lawyer's office in Atlanta on Friday, sources said.

Among those present was Usher's mother, Jonetta Patton, who, it has been widely reported, staunchly disapproved of the marriage. Foster was reportedly largely responsible for Usher firing his mom as his manager last May.

The pair, who are expecting their first child together this fall, had been scheduled to marry last weekend before Usher publicist Patti Webster announced the wedding was called off.

The couple reportedly disagreed over an elaborate prenuptial agreement supported by Usher's mother.

Lovestoned...

I admit it, I'm a bit of JT junkie these days, can't quite explain it....but the boy has moves. I don't like his early boy band crap, don't like his early stuff but his current album is really good. Me like. Enjoy!

DNA Testing works!

James Brown has more sperm spread around:

off of yahoo

2 more James Brown children identified

08/03/2007 10:59 PM, AP
The Associated Press

DNA testing on about a dozen people who claim James Brown was their father has found that at least two of them are telling the truth, a longtime adviser to the late soul singer said Friday.

Several tests have come back negative, while others are pending, said Buddy Dallas, who did not have exact numbers Friday night.

Dallas refused to identify the two people whose DNA showed they were Brown's children, but The Augusta Chronicle reported that LaRhonda Petitt, a 45-year-old retired flight attendant and teacher in Houston, showed the newspaper a report that says there is a 99.99 percent probability she is Brown's daughter.

She would be the oldest of Brown's children.

Brown picked out Petitt's mother from the crowd at a show in Los Angeles in the early 1960s, and she became the singer's girlfriend, sometimes ironing his shirts before his shows, Petitt said.

But when her mother became pregnant, she split with Brown and moved back to Houston. She would point to the television when Brown was performing and tell her daughter the singer was her father, Petitt told the newspaper.

Petitt said that she met Brown at concerts and spoke to him over the phone, but that he never acknowledged being her father.

"I was angry that he was out there making all this money, and he wasn't doing anything for my mother and me," Petitt told the newspaper. "I could have had a better life."

Brown died Dec. 25 of heart failure at age 73. His body was entombed in a crypt at the home of one of his daughters in March.

Brown's will, which is being disputed in court, names six children.

One possible child of Brown's who hasn't undergone a DNA test is 6-year-old James Brown II, the son of Tomi Rae Hynie. Hynie was one of Brown's backup singers and said she is the singer's fourth wife. But Brown's attorneys continue to dispute that claim, and the boy and his mother are not in the singer's will.

In court papers filed in recent weeks, Dallas said Brown told him that James II was not his child and that instead of calling him "son," he referred to him as "little man."

Whether Petitt makes a claim to Brown's estate depends on whether the will holds up, said her lawyer, Jim Griffin. He would at least like Petitt's two daughters to be eligible for a trust the signer set up to pay for his grandchildren's education, he said.

Petitt said she has grown less bitter about Brown as the years have passed.

I love my daddy," she told the Chronicle. "When I hear my daddy's music, it just freezes me."

On Friday, July 27, Nicole Richie pleaded guilty to driving under the influence of drugs and was sentenced to four days in jail and given three years' probation. Richie — who arrived at the Glendale, California courthouse with beau Joel Madden wearing a short black dress and dark sunglasses early Friday morning — was also fined $2,048 and was ordered to take an alcohol education course. Los Angeles County Commissioner Steven Lubell sentenced Richie to 96 hours in jail (with six hours credited from her arrest date) and gave her the option of serving her time in a paid city jail, instead of county jail. Richie must complete her jail time before Sept. 28. In regard to Richie's reported pregnancy, Prosecutor Carolina Lugo said it had nothing to do with the plea deal.

NEW YORK - The wedding between Usher and his pregnant fiance has been canceled, his publicist told The Associated Press on Saturday.

The wedding between the multiplatinum singer and his longtime girlfriend, Tameka Foster, was scheduled for Saturday. The pair are expecting their first child together sometime this fall.

However, a statement released by publicist Patti Webster exclusively to the AP read: "It was announced today that the wedding ceremony for Usher Raymond, IV and Tameka Foster was canceled. No additional information will be given regarding the circumstances of the cancellation, but we hope the privacy of this matter will be respected."

Foster and Usher announced their engagement earlier this year, and later, that she was expecting his first child. She has three other children from a previous marriage.

Webster would not comment on whether the two were still engaged or even a couple

Is it true that her wild past finally caught up with her and her dumped her?

Also off of Crazy Days & Nights

and of course, the Blohan analysis: ("anal"....tee hee!)

So MSNBC is yammering on about experts who said Lindsay could spend six months in jail. Of course, they don't name the experts. I think it's 50/50 if Lindsay spends any time in jail. I know, I know she got busted for the same thing as Paris who spent time in jail and Lindsay has some extra charges that have been thrown her way also, BUT in case you didn't notice the whole Paris going to jail for driving on a suspended license was just not consistent with the way things are normally done and the blowback was pretty impressive. Because there are some felony charges here, this thing isn't going to trial for a very long time. So, if Lindsay can clean up her act and not get into ANY trouble between now and the trial in the somewhat distant future then I'm thinking a suspended sentence with probation and community service.

The tough part of this is not really the cocaine charges, but rather the first DUI charge. If she's convicted of that, then there is less leeway for the judge in the 2nd case should Lindsay be convicted there of the same offense. Then she would be probably looking at some jail time, but NOT six months. The whole bringing drugs into the jail is a messed up charge because she didn't try and give it to anyone and the cops should have found it. She can always say she thought the cops had already taken it from her. So, that is the biggest felony charge gone in an instant.
The cocaine from the first DUI was not actually found on Lindsay but rather in the car from which she had already fled. Although she's still culpable, that will probably be dropped as well.

First arrest that leaves DUI and hit and run.

Second arrest that leaves DUI and cocaine possession.

The hit and run will probably be dropped because it was a one vehicle accident and the only person "injured" was Lindsay. So, now we are down to just DUI on the first arrest. If you want to get all crazy you can say that Lindsay could have had drinks before she got tested by the cops because she was so nervous. She could claim she wasn't drinking at the time she was driving but had them in between the accident and when her blood was drawn. Of course it would be a crap argument but she could still hint at it.

So if we have a conviction on the first DUI and a conviction on both of the remaining charges from the second DUI, but with Lindsay being the most perfect princess in the interim, then I think she will get at most a 30 day sentence. If the sentence is longer, then it will most likely be suspended with multiple years of probation and a many hours of community service. During that time period she must also be the perfect princess and not get into any trouble.

This is going to be a very long year for Lindsay and if she doesn't get clean, a very long several years from which her career may not recover.

After they slaved for you and your petty demands for TWO hours and had to look into the vacant eyes of Katie Holmes for the same period of time as she mumbled "Tom is good. Tom is good," the least you could do is tip 15%. With the $25M a year your husband makes and the $20M you are getting for the Spice Girls reunion, you should be leaving bunches more than 15%.

Then, to make matters worse, the waitress who was rightfully pissed went after you to call you the worthless cheap bitch you deserved and was manhandled by your security staff.
You have pissed off not only the staff at Asia de Cuba but, the entire serving community here in LA and you may want to investigate thoroughly every morsel on your plate before eating. I also encourage you to tip in advance and to go back to the nice waitress you stiffed and give her $1000 or so and naked photos of your husband.

This is just gross.....

Cisco and Pari$ together greasin it up.....

off of US Weekly:

It looks like Paris Hilton's post-prison "new leaf" is one you can smoke. Out at Guy's nightclub in West Hollywood on July 24, Hilton and Mischa Barton's ex Cisco Adler sang karaoke, made out and got high.

The pair arrived at nearly 1 a.m. with two other girls. In skinny jeans, a black tank and a sequined top, Hilton didn't get her own cocktail, but she stole sips from Adler's vodka tonics throughout the night. Later, the burgeoning popstar sang "Bette Davis Eyes" in honor of a friend's birthday, and stayed onstage for an unexpected encore when the DJ started playing her single, "The Stars are Blind." Musician Adler performed "Brown Eyed Girl," and then left the stage for Hilton's side.

The duo, who Usmagazine.com sources witnessed making out more than once, were perhaps feeling loose and lovey due to the marijuana they were openly smoking at the club. As the 4 Non Blondes song "What's Up" played in the background, Hilton sang along, replacing the chorus' "what's going on" lyric with "let's smoke a bowl!"

Though they were cuddly inside, Hilton and Adler left at 2:30 a.m. in different cars.
The night of debauchery comes just a month after Hilton brazenly told Larry King that she's never done drugs.

Hilton's rep Michael Sitrick tells Usmagazine.com, "Paris absolutely did not smoke pot Tuesday night or Wednesday morning, as I understand was reported. That report is false."

The rep doesn't, however, deny her, uh, lip-locking with Cisco Adler. "She was with Cisco Tuesday night/Wednesday morning," he says.

Britney's OK! interview a disaster!

off of TMZ:

TMZ has learned that Britney's self-arranged photo shoot and interview with OK! Magazine was a complete disaster. We're told that the photos are so bad, execs at the magazine are, at this moment, trying to decide whether to report what actually happened -- or sanitize the truth to protect the pop trainwreck.

According to multiple sources, Britney's behavior during the interview was "nothing less than a meltdown." She was, according to our sources, "completely out of it" during the shoot. The photos are "so bad" we've learned, that to publish them could "kill her career." Apparently, Brit Brit's eyes rolled back in her head at one point, causing her to look half dead. Her mood, we're told, was extremely erratic. She took frequent bathroom breaks our source says, and each time she returned her mood would change. She was also completely paranoid during the entire interview, fearing at one point the ceiling was about to cave in on her. Out of control y'all!

We've also learned that Brit had some issues with hygiene on the set as well. At one point, Britney ordered up some fried chicken to munch on. We're told after she chowed down, she wiped her hands on a several thousand dollar Gucci dress that she was wearing for the shoot, staining it with grease. Yuck! One of her dogs also needed some assistance in the housebreaking department. Our on-set spy says that the dog pooped all over the floor, and Brit used (what else?) -- a Chanel dress to clean it up! How trashtastic! As for how Brit looked for the photos, another nightmare. We've learned that OK! hired two of the best hair and makeup artists in L.A. to transform the once-bald beauty into something more presentable, but she wasn't havin' none of that. She refused to let the hired help touch her, opting instead for her "skanky friends" to do her hair and makeup.

No wonder she always looks so fantastic!And if you're wondering where her mom/publicist/lawyer/friend/ANYONE was to help her out, we're told that even her cousin Alli (who until recently was working as her personal assistant) couldn't deal, and is "done" with Miss Spears.

We'll see when OK! hits the stands this week -- if they actually have the balls to print the truth about what happened. We're guessing they don't!A call to Brit's rep was not immediately returned.

A rep for OK! would not discuss the upcoming issue.

WOW.

Kim K. really does deserve to hang out with the likes of Pari$ite!

off of what would tyler durden do?

Kim Kardashian and her diseased womb walked the red carpet Saturday night at a benefit for the Nicole Brown Foundation, and I'll trust you to use your own creative profanity here, but if it doesn't sound like "selfish" and "attention" and "whore", you should probably start over. Lets do some quick math:

Kim Kardashian is the daughter of Robert Kardashian. Robert Kardashain was the attorney for OJ Simpson, who helped Simpson get away with murder after he came within an inch of chopping off Nicole Browns head.

This is maybe the most selfish thing I've ever seen. The only way it could be any more despicable is if she got Chris Benoit to baby-sit while she went out or she came dressed as a ghost.

At last!

Sooo happy....will be sooo happy when she gets tossed into jail....Blohan turned herself in! Already working the angle of tryin to be responsible and all that crap already!

That is all.

I LOVE JON LOVITZ!!!!

ANDY DICK GOT HIS ASS BEAT BY THE LYING CRITIC!!!! (You remember the Critic and the Liar off of SNL, don't you?)

***

July 17, 2007 -- IT was fight night at an L.A. comedy club last week when Jon Lovitz roughed up Andy Dick over the murder of their "Saturday Night Live" colleague, Phil Hartman.

Laugh Factory owner Jamie Masada, who witnessed the assault, said, "Jon picked Andy up by the head and smashed him into the bar four or five times, and blood started pouring out of his nose." Lovitz told Page Six, "All the comedians are glad I did it because this guy is a [bleep]hole."

Lovitz and Dick have been at loggerheads since a 1997 Christmas party at Hartman's house, five months before his troubled wife Brynn flipped out, fatally shooting Hartman, then killing herself. "Andy was doing cocaine, and he gave Brynn some after she had been sober for 10 years. Phil was furious about it - and then five months later he's dead," said Lovitz, adding that when he filled in on Hartman's "Newsradio" sitcom, "I told Andy, 'I wouldn't be here now if you hadn't given Brynn that cocaine.' "

Last year, Lovitz related, a drunken Dick strolled up to his table at Ago in West Hollywood, rudely downed his guests' peach liqueur drinks, and "looked at me and said, 'I put the "Phil Hartman hex" on you - you're the next one to die.' I said, 'What did you say?' and he repeated it. I wanted to punch his face in, but I don't hit women."

When the two ran into each other at the Laugh Factory last Wednesday, "I wanted him to say he was sorry for the 'Phil Hartman hex,' " Lovitz told us. "First he says, 'I don't remember saying that.' Then he leans in and says, 'You know why I said it? Because you said I killed Phil Hartman.' Which I never said. Then he asked me to be in his new movie.

"I grabbed him by the shirt and leaned him over and said, 'I don't want to be in your movie! I don't want to be in your life!' I pushed him against the rail. Then I pushed him again really hard. A security guard broke it up. I'm not proud of it . . . but he's a disgusting human being." Dick's rep said he had no comment.

And off the Good Ol' NY Post...

July 18, 2007 -- WHICH hard-partying starlet has figured out a way to get high while wearing an alcohol-monitoring anklet? She was asking where she could score some Ecstasy at a Vegas club the other night . . . *C'mon, you can guess it!!!*

WHICH too-good-to-be-real Hollywood leading man and his hard-bodied wife deserve Oscars for their portrayal of a perfect marriage? They both have secret lives with members of the same sex. *harder, but what do you think?*

This is so disgusting....

off of Splash news. Srsly, I want to throw up each time I hear about it:

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick aka “Ron Mexico” has been indicted on charges he sponsored a dog fighting ring on the property of a home he owns in Virginia.

The charges allege that the operation called “Bad Newz Kennels” was so gruesome that losing dogs either died in the pit or sometimes were electrocuted, drowned, hanged or shot. Vick is slated to appear in court on July 26th and if convicted could face up to six years in prison, $350,000 in fines and restitution

As it should be dogfighting is illegal in all 50 states in America. I can’t even begin to describe how disgusting this story is - Vick if proven guilty should not only be given the maximum possible sentence for this heinous crime that but he should never be allowed to play football again.

People who fight dogs are on the same level with kid touchers as far as I am concerned.

When Lesbians Attack!!!

off of TMZ:

Lindsay Lohan gal pal Samantha Ronson is suing Perez Hilton and Sunset Photo and News Agency for libel -- to the tune of $20 million!

According to the Daily News, the Sapphic celebrity DJ is miffed that both sites claimed she was making money by tipping off paparazzi on special friend Lohan. She's also taking issue with both sites' reports that Ronson was responsible for the cocaine found in LiLo's car the night of her most recent crash.

Neither Perez nor Sunset have publicly responded to the claims.

and this from Out Zone:

A former bodyguard of star-crossed starlet Lindsay Lohan has spoken out about her post-party lesbian trysts. According to Lee Weaver, a former protector of the troubled redhead who quit when her wild ways became too much for him to bear, Lindsay had a real penchant for girls over the last two years.

“She used boys for drugs and girls for thrills. I lost count of the women she took back to her hotel room from clubs.”

*so that's a former bodyguard selling her out but how did this get leaked?*

PR-Inside.com caught wind of the story that the MySpace page for fully rehabbed Lindsay was hacked into, revealing a lesbian love message.

Lohan was said to be using the popular site to keep in touch with friends during her stint at the Promises rehab centre in Malibu. Allegedly, she also used the page to declare her love for her long though romantic interest DJ Samantha Ronson.

“Babe, if I don’t have you in my life then I should just go die. I want to marry you and have children with you.” To which Ronson is purported to have replied, “Go to bed babe. I love you Lindsay Ronson.”

I'm takin bets!!!!

How long before greasy bear shows up dead for not paying back a debt??

off of the NY Post:

July 14, 2007 -- BRANDON "Greasy Bear" Davis, grandson to oil billionaire Marvin Davis, is broke.

Several sources said Davis - who once hounded Lindsay Lohan for not having money and called her a "firecrotch" - has been financially cut off by his wealthy family for not being able to get his act together, and pals like Paris Hilton and Stavros Niarchos aren't taking his calls.

"His family cut him off for using and abusing," our in-the-know spy said. "He had promised to get his act together, but obviously never did."

After Davis was caught railing against Lohan on camera last year, his family sent him to rehab, where he was treated for drugs and booze dependency. But a week after he left the clinic, the oleaginous heir was back out on Los Angeles streets partying, and he hasn't stopped since.

After being cut off by his family last week, Davis flew to Miami to take refuge with puerile music producer Scott Storch.

"He's been staying at Scott's, but shows up every day at Mokai and the Shore Club," snitched our source. Davis went out one night with Caroline Vreeland, but was soon dumped by the leggy blonde.

Another spy said Davis has been calling friends asking them to loan him $2,000 at a time. So far, he's had no takers and is living on credit. His friends remember how he bounced a $10,000 check on "Girls Gone Wild" gazillionaire Joe Francis, and owes some other "friends" for gambling debts.

Last week, to shore up his spirits, Davis showed up at the Raleigh Hotel in South Beach, where he called the bar in advance to order six lemon drop shots, six mojitos and six Peronis so they'd be waiting when he arrived. He soon appeared with a blonde and a brunette, and went to work on the drinks.

But things may be looking up. An Australian model, Cheyenne Tozzi, seems to have taken pity on Davis and is his new "girlfriend." The two showed up to Opium to hang out with Kim Kardashian,

where they drank for free all night.

Nicky hates Pari$

and I love it!

But I don't wanna be Forty!!!! *cries*

I never ever thought I would turn 40. Never. When I was 12 years old, 20 years old, it was forever away. Now here is 40 staring me in the face and I can't avoid it. That's what sucks. You can't escape except by death. I never wanted to be 40!!! Look how fast those first years went, how fast are the next 40?

Here's to my life, the trials, the happiness, the sadness....I still miss my sweetheart, my black kitty Gimlet. Here's to my new job, my new life...my old friends, my online friends, my new friends....Here's to Sunny (wherever you are, shine on you crazy diamond), to my twin long ago at the computer store....

Here's to the end of my thirties, the beginning of a new decade that I really don't want. Here's to it all because I can't avoid it, I can't make it go away and I can't turn back the clock. To all the regrets and chances that I took...to the strangeness and the zen I've tried to find in every moment.

Fuck it all, here's to forty....a little smarter, a little more wear from the world, a little chance again to get it right and be happy. Here's to you, here's to me....maybe one day we'll all get it right!


Incidentally, here is the face of 49....I sooo want to look this good!

Catwoman is still hawt!

Nicole Richie really pregs?

where? Is this to avoid jail? This according to In Touch:

She's been avoiding questions and rumors for weeks, but recently Nicole Richie started to confess to friends that she really is pregnant. "Nicole didn't want to tell anyone until she was past three months," a pal explains. "She really kept the news from everyone."

And a baby isn't the only happy news. Nicole, 25, "is getting married this summer" to her boyfriend, Joel Madden, says an insider.

Joel, 28, who fronts the band Good Charlotte, seems excited about starting a new life with Nicole, too. "He kept talking about his fiancée," Guttermouth guitarist Donald Horne, whose band played with Joel's in Quebec on June 29, tells In Touch. Joel also spoke about leaving LA, adds Donald. "He was talking about looking to settle down someplace nice and start a family," he says.

Britney drama with her mama

Oh, that crazy Britney! where will it all end up?

off of OK! magazine:

Only minutes ago, Britney Spears got caught up in a reported argument with her mother Lynne. The face-off occurred on the set of Zoey 101, which stars Brit's little sister Jamie Lynne.

According to X17.com, the argument began after Britney handed her mother some papers, believed to be legal documents. It has been rumored in recent days that Brit was seeking a restraining order against her mother to keep Lynne away from her grandsons, Sean Preston, 2, and one-year-old Jayden James.

Britney, with her infant sons in tow, appeared on the Valencia, Calif., set of Zoey 101 earlier this afternoon, wearing a pair of skimpy jean shorts. After the row with her mom, the pop star appeared to be smiling and in a good mood, though she reportedly dumped various bits of old sandwiches and food wrappers out her car window on the 40-mile drive back to her home.

As reported in the current issue of OK!, one source of the mother-daughter tension was Lynne's planned appearance on daytime talk show The View, an appearance that was subsequently scrapped.

Oh yeah, Blohan turned 21....

Blah blah blah....cokewhore...blah blah....goin to jail soon....

off of US weekly:

Lindsay Lohan had more to celebrate on July 2 than turning 21 – she is also more than 30 days sober!

But the actress decided to ring in the milestone birthday with a low-key party instead of the big Las Vegas blowout that was originally planned.

Lohan asked for a Carvel ice cream cake for her party on Monday at a private beach house in Malibu, California. “It’s her favorite because it reminds her of when she was little,” says her rep.

As for washing it down, the beverages were strictly non-alcoholic with guests (including pal Samantha Ronson who DJ’d the event, and Lohan’s sobriety coach) drinking Pepsi, SoBe and vitamin drinks.

“I can’t believe she’s 21,” mom Dina tells Us of her oldest child. “We’re all so proud of how hard she’s been working to get better.”

Lohan passed the day playing beach tennis with her family, including her three siblings Ali, 13, Dakota, 11, and Michael, 19.

On top of the iPhone she got before her birthday, Lohan received Cartier jewelry, blue Louis Vuitton shoes, a skull necklace and a beach cruiser bike with a bell and basket from her assistant, Jenni.

For party favors, each guest received a visor with the actress’ initials.

The I Know Who Killed Me star apologized to neighbors Courteney Cox and David Arquette for the paparazzi chaos, but they said it was no sweat – and even wished her a happy birthday!

Line up, Ladies!

Johnny Knoxville's officially a free man! If I remember right, wasn't this a shotgun wedding?

off of TMZ:

TMZ has obtained documents, filed today in Los Angeles County Superior Court, in which Knoxville (real name P.J. Clapp) cited "irreconcilable differences" in his nearly twelve-year marriage to wife Melanie.

We're told there is no prenup and Knoxville will pay spousal support. He's asking for joint custody of the couple's only child, 11-year-old daughter Madison.

Interestingly, Knoxville's lawyer, disso-queen Laura Wasser, signed the divorce petition last January but it wasn't filed until today.

The Foo Commands it!!!

To celebrate my years on this planet this year, I'd like to share it with others who share the same day!!! So if you or someone you know shares July 12th, please send the name and picture here and I shall post them so we can all share together!!

I once ran into a guy, about 14 years ago, who shared the same date and year as me. I knew this because I was working as a cashier at the time and he was paying by check. I was looking at his driver's license to write down info, as is required and I happend to glance at his birthdate and saw it was the same as mine! "You can't have that birthday, that's my birthday!" I exclaimed and at first he was taken back, then he laughed. He thought it was pretty cool too and commented how we must be astral twins or something. We figured out that I was six hours older, then we stared at each other for a moment and smiled. "Well, if I don't see you again, have a happy birthday!" he said as he left. I told him happy birthday too.

It was a cool, fuzzy, happy moment.

Enrique is a sorry dumbass

Off of Hollywood Rag. You just have to read this to appreciate it!

***

Enrique Iglesias would love to be gay so he could have an open relationship.

The ‘Hero’ singer is jealous of his homosexual friends who, despite being in long-term relationships, still have liaisons with other people.

Enrique - who is romancing Anna Kournikova - told Genre magazine: My stylist is gay and lives in Los Angeles and when he came to Miami, he went out.

“And I asked, ‘Your boyfriend doesn’t care?’ And he said, ‘We have an understanding if I’m out of the city.’

“When I saw George Michael, he said the same thing. I’m going to have to have a talk with my girl!”

The 32-year-old Spanish-born singer is rumored to have tied the knot with his tennis-playing Russian girlfriend, but both refuse to confirm or deny their marriage.

SOOO Funny!

And shows how everyone knows how full of shit Pari$ is....for instance, this off of celebslam, pointing out how she lies, even to Larry King:

Larry King: Have you ever been addicted to drugs?

Paris Hilton: No

Larry: Taken drugs?

Paris: No

Larry: Never taken drugs?

Paris: Uh-Uh

I guess when you lie all the time, it just seems natural after a while....or it's just too hard to keep track of it all

and this, apparently filmed in a coffeehouse in the Netherlands...

Britney's Blather

off of TMZ:

Britney Spears feels totally betrayed by her mom, her soon-to-be ex husband, her former manager and Promises, the rehab facility she called home for nearly a month. In short, she claims she never had a drug or alcohol problem but was railroaded into rehab.

Sources tell TMZ that Lynne Spears, Kevin Federline and then-manager Larry Rudolph all pressured Britney to check herself in. We're told Spears acknowledged having emotional problems after her second child was born, but strongly maintained she did not have a drug or alcohol problem.

Nonetheless, multiple sources say Federline threatened to go public by going to court to wrestle custody from her if she didn't go to rehab. Sources say Spears could not withstand the pressure from her mom, Federline and Ruldolph, and checked into Promises last February 20.We're told eventually the professionals believed Spears suffered from post-partum depression, made worse because she stopped taking Prozac. She was also emotionally crumbling because of a messy divorce and intense media scrutiny.

After leaving Promises, as paparazzi waited for the golden shot of Britney drinking again, she began getting angry that she was at a rehab facility in the first place. Britney and her assistant, Allie Sims, called Promises multiple times, asking for a copy of the report showing that she tested dirty for drugs and/or alcohol when she checked in. We're told it took several days to get an answer. Only two reports were sent to Britney's rep, both showing no drug or alcohol use whatsoever.

Most shocking, the first report was dated March 7, 15 days after Britney checked in.

and then there is this, off of celebrity rumors:

Kevin Federline doesn’t want to sign the divorce papers. And it’s not because he wants his wacked out Britney Spears back, he wants to have it in writing that he can keep Britney from seeing their kids if she goes all loco again.

From People:

“Britney’s attorneys are anxious to see Kevin sign off on a divorce. But Kevin and his lawyer Mark Vincent Kaplan are dragging their heels out of concern over reports of Britney’s post-rehab partying. [Federline] wants to make sure that the divorce document makes it simple enough for Kevin to downsize Britney’s access to her kids the next time her behavior troubles him.”

Happyness....

Maybe you saw the movie, maybe not.....but today, I finally got my job offer, for a real, permanent job.....and I am so happy.....it's not unlike Will Smith's character finally winning the internship in "Pursuit of Happyness"

But I wanted to cry and throw up and I hurt all over.....

It's still not real....I've kicked around for a few years as a temp....finally I got a break

yeah.

By DAVID K. LI and SELIM ALGAR

June 29, 2007 -- "Mean Girl" Lindsay Lohan was fully loaded on more than just booze when she went on a Memorial Day weekend-long bender - she also had cocaine in her system, according to reports.

Cops said they found traces of blow in Lohan's blood on May 26, the day she crashed her luxury ride in Beverly Hills. Previously, they said they found a personal-use amount of the drug in her car.

Lohan, who turns 21 on Monday, checked herself into rehab several days after she slammed her 2005 Mercedes SL-65 into a Sunset Boulevard curb.

The troubled actress hit rock bottom 48 hours later when she capped off her wild Memorial Day holiday by passing out in a car outside Hollywood's famed Roosevelt Hotel.

Snapshots of the unconscious red-haired temptress made front-page news around the world, and she checked into Promises drug and alcohol rehabilitation center in Malibu a day later.

Officers found cocaine in Lohan's smashed-up car, and a news report yesterday revealed that the actress had traces of cocaine in her system.

A Beverly Hills police spokesman declined to confirm or deny the bombshell revelation.
Reports also said Lohan was twice over the blood-alcohol limit for drunken driving. Detectives are about to turn over their findings to the Los Angeles DA.

"I'm not going to tell you one thing or another. We're basically in the home stretch of the investigation and it'll be completed very soon," said Lt. Mitch McCann.

McCann said she was charged with driving under the influence, and "we recovered some cocaine from the car and booked that into evidence, but she was not charged" yet with cocaine possession.

Lohan's spokeswoman and mother could not be reached for comment.

Weirdness...

This story really creeps me out and it just keeps getting creepier and more macabre.

off of CNN.com:

ATLANTA, Georgia (AP) -- Investigators are looking into who altered pro wrestler Chris Benoit's Wikipedia entry to mention his wife's death hours before authorities discovered the bodies of the couple and their 7-year-old son.

Benoit's Wikipedia entry was altered early Monday to say that the wrestler had missed a match two days earlier because of his wife's death.

A Wikipedia official, Cary Bass, said Thursday that the entry was made by someone using an Internet protocol address registered in Stamford, Connecticut, where World Wrestling Entertainment is based.

An IP address, a unique series of numbers carried by every machine connected to the Internet, does not necessarily have to be broadcast from where it is registered. The bodies were found in Benoit's home in suburban Atlanta, Georgia, and it's not known where the posting was sent from, Bass said.

Benoit strangled his wife and son during the weekend, placing Bibles next to their bodies, before hanging himself on the cable of a weight-machine in his home, authorities said. No motive was offered for the killings, which were discovered Monday.

Officials raid office of Benoit's doctor

Also Thursday, federal drug agents said they had raided the west Georgia office of a doctor who prescribed testosterone to Benoit.

The raid at Dr. Phil Astin's office in Carrollton began Wednesday night and concluded early Thursday, said agent Chuvalo Truesdell, a spokesman for the Drug Enforcement Administration. No arrests were made.

Hours before the raid, Astin told The Associated Press he had treated Benoit for low testosterone levels, which he said likely originated from previous steroid use.

Among other things, investigators were looking for Benoit's medical records to see whether he had been prescribed steroids and, if so, whether that prescription was appropriate, according to a law enforcement official speaking on condition of anonymity because records in the case remain sealed.

Astin prescribed testosterone for Benoit, a longtime friend, in the past but would not say what, if any, medications he prescribed when Benoit visited his office Friday.

State medical records show that Astin's privileges were suspended for three months in 2001 at a Georgia hospital for "reasons related to competence or character."

Astin did not return calls to his cell phone from the AP on Thursday.

Anabolic steroids were found in Benoit's home, leading officials to wonder whether the drugs played a role in the killings. Some experts believe steroids cause paranoia, depression and violent outbursts known as "roid rage."

Fayette County District Attorney Scott Ballard said in a statement Thursday that he could not immediately comment on the raid.

Benoit's page on Wikipedia, a reference site that allows users to add and edit information, was updated at 12:01 a.m. Monday, about 14 hours before authorities say the bodies were found.

The reason he missed a match Saturday night was "stemming from the death of his wife Nancy," it said.

Reporters informed the Fayette County district attorney's office of the posting Thursday, and the agency forwarded the information to sheriff's investigators, who are looking into it, a legal assistant said in an e-mail to the AP.

WWE attorney Jerry McDevitt said that to his knowledge, no one at the WWE knew Nancy Benoit was dead before her body was found Monday afternoon. Text messages released by officials show that messages from Chris Benoit's cell phone were being sent to co-workers a few hours after the Wikipedia posting.

WWE employees are given WWE e-mail addresses, McDevitt said, though he did not know whether Chris Benoit had one.

"I have no idea who posted this," McDevitt said. "It's at least possible Chris may have sent some other text message to someone that we're unaware of. We don't know if he did. The phone is in the possession of authorities."

On Thursday afternoon, the Wikipedia page about Benoit carried a note stating that editing by unregistered or newly registered users was disabled until July 8 because of vandalism.

In other developments Thursday, Ballard told the AP that 10 empty beer cans were found in a trash can in the Benoit home. An empty wine bottle was found a few feet from where Benoit hanged himself, Ballard said.

It could take several weeks for toxicology tests to be completed on Benoit to see what substances, if any, were in his system.

Benoit took four months off from work in 2006 for undisclosed personal reasons, McDevitt said.
"He was feeling depressed, that kind of thing," McDevitt said.

In the days before the killings, Benoit and his wife argued over whether he should stay home more to take care of their mentally retarded 7-year-old son, according to an attorney for the WWE wrestling league.

The child had a rare medical condition called Fragile X Syndrome, an inherited form of mental retardation often accompanied by autism.

Chris Benoit's father, Michael Benoit, declined to comment on the slayings when reached Thursday by telephone in Alberta, Canada. Funeral arrangements were incomplete.

Paris$ite released

off of omg!:

LYNWOOD, Calif. -

A smiling Paris Hilton walked out of a Los Angeles County jail early Tuesday, officially ending a bizarre, three-week stay that ignited furious debate over celebrity treatment in the jail system.

The 26-year-old celebutante was greeted by an enormous gathering of cameras and reporters upon leaving the all-women's facility in Lynwood about 15 minutes past midnight. She had checked into the Century Regional Detention Facility late June 3, largely avoiding the spotlight, after a surprise appearance at the MTV Movie Awards.

Hilton smiled and waved as she filed past deputies and the media, her blonde hair pulled back in a braided ponytail. Her parents, Kathy and Rick, waited in a black SUV. Hilton hurried to the vehicle, where she hugged her mom through the window.

Hilton, who was wearing a sage jacket with white trim over a white shirt and skinny jeans, did not respond to reporters' questions.

"She fulfilled her debt. She was obviously in good spirits. She thanked people as she left," said sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore.

Photographers sprinted after Hilton's vehicle as she left. When the SUV hit a red light during the ride, photographers jumped out of their cars and swarmed it.

Hilton appeared to have gone to a family home in a ritzy Los Angeles canyon north of Sunset Blvd.

The hotel heiress will complete her probation in March 2009 as long as she keeps her driver's license current and doesn't break any laws. She can reduce that time by 12 months if she does community service that could include a public-service announcement, the city attorney's office has said.

During her stay at the Lynwood facility, Hilton was mostly confined to a solitary cell in the special needs unit away from the other 2,200 inmates.

After spending only three days there, she was released to home confinement by Sheriff Lee Baca for an unspecified medical condition that he later said was psychological.

The following day, Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer, who sentenced the hotel heiress, called her back into court and ordered her returned to jail, saying he had not condoned her release.

Hilton's stay there cost taxpayers $1,109.78 a day, more than 10 times the cost of housing inmates in the general population.

The move by Baca caused a firestorm of criticism over whether the celebrity was getting special treatment. The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has launched an investigation into whether the multimillionaire received special treatment because of her wealth and fame.

At least one person has filed a claim against the county alleging she "had serious medical issues" but was not treated as well as Hilton.

A few days into her stint at the Twin Towers medical ward, the heiress said in a phone call to Barbara Walters that she had a new outlook.

"I used to act dumb. It was an act. I am 26 years old, and that act is no longer cute," Hilton said during the call, according to an account posted June 11 by Walters on ABC's Web site.
"It is not who I am, nor do I want to be that person for the young girls who looked up to me," Hilton was quoted as saying.

Hilton's path to jail began Sept. 7, when she failed a sobriety test after police saw her weaving down a street in her car on what she said was a late-night run to a hamburger stand.

She pleaded no contest to reckless driving and was sentenced to 36 months' probation, alcohol education and $1,500 in fines.

In the months that followed, she was stopped twice by officers who discovered her driving with a suspended license. The second stop landed her in Sauer's courtroom, where he sentenced her to 45-days in jail. She was released after three weeks for reasons including good behavior.
