Britney Spears—2008 Starts Off Less Than Great

So much for a new year, a clean slate, and a fresh start… Popwreck Britney Spears entered 2008 as pathetically as she exited 2007… and things don’t look as if they will be improving any time soon. For starters, yesterday Ms. Meltdown’s latest lawyer, Sorrell Trope, filed a court document asking a judge to remove him from Spears’ ongoing custody case with ex-husband Kevin Federline. “There has been a breakdown in communications between (Spears) and Trope & Trope (law firm) making further representation of her interests impossible,” says the document. Basically, Trope quit. Though an attorney cannot simply withdraw from … Continue reading →

Another DUI Arrest and Another Celebrity Divorce

Having learned nothing from Kiefer Sutherland, Lindsay Lohan, Rebecca De Mornay, or Mickey Rourke, actress Mischa Barton was arrested this weekend on DUI charges. After straddling two lanes and failing to signal when turning, the 21 year old was pulled over by sheriff’s deputies on La Cienega Boulevard at 2:45 a.m. The deputies found Mischa had been drinking and was in possession of marijuana. Oh yeah, and just like Britney, Mischa was driving without a driver’s license too, according to a statement released by Sgt. John Hocking of the sheriff’s department. Mischa, perhaps best known for appearing on the teen … Continue reading →

Things seem to be going from bad to worse for pro wrestler Hulk Hogan. The former WWE champ turned reality TV star is back in the headlines again. Hogan whose real name is Terry Bollea found out yesterday that his wife of 24 years filed for divorce.

How Close Is Britney To Losing Her Kids? —The Answer

The world can now stop speculating as to whether Britney Spears’ erratic behavior will cost her time with her children. A judge has spoken and the answer is… NO—at least not for now. This afternoon a L.A. Court Commissioner issued a ruling in the custody fight between Spears and her former husband Kevin Federline.

How Close Is Britney To Losing Her Kids?

Note to Britney Spears: If you haven’t already noticed, things are not looking good for you. Yesterday was a bad day for the former Mousekeeter and today doesn’t look any better. If you missed the crawls at the bottom of every news channel on TV, Brit-Brit’s manager and attorney dumped her less than 24 hours ago. A double dumping—-less than four hours apart from each other–that may be a new record. According to the singer’s now former manager (she’s bled through at least three since her infamous meltdowns), he was “saddened” (yeah, right) to confirm that he and Brit parted … Continue reading →

Divorce—-Hollywood Style

Well, here we go again… more divorcing couples in Tinseltown. This time it’s Christina Applegate’s split from husband, actor Johnathon Schaech that’s making headlines. Though, I’m not exactly sure why. Applegate’s credits include “Married With Children” and “Anchorman.” Oh, and she is returning to the small screen in “Samantha Who?” on ABC this fall. As for Schaech, other than a bit part in “How To Make An American Quilt” I’m not sure where he fits into the Hollywood mix. The pair was married for four years and they no children… so why is their split making the news? Perhaps it … Continue reading →

It’s WAR!

I didn’t buy it for a second. There is no way I was going to believe that Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen had buried the hatchet “for the good of the children.” Puh-leeze. The guy was being accused of abusing drugs and “losing control of his emotions,” among other despicable and vulgar deeds. Do you really think that a few months would erase all that? Yeah right! Get ready for round two in the ongoing divorce battle between the Hollywood heavyweights. During the past couple of days, the actor has been appearing on various entertainment news shows making the jaw-dropping … Continue reading →
