Former American Idol contestant Jessica Sierra can’t get a break. After being arrested on charges of battery and cocaine possession, Sierra may face more than 11 years in prison. The judge who oversaw the arraignment hearing for Sierra wasn’t very forgiving to the Idol, who was denied bail. This all comes after Sierra was put on probation not two weeks ago.

As if her failed Idol attempt wasn’t embarrassing enough the judge decided to add insult to injury. TMZ is reporting that the judge in the latest case told Sierra, “Obviously the bar scene isn’t working out so well for you.”

Sierra not only faces the two felonies she’s also been charged with two misdemeanors, one for disorderly intoxication and one for obstructing justice in relation to a police officer. Right now, Sierra needs to focus on staying out of trouble and not on her budding (in her imagination) vocal career.

Who the hell is the judge in the Lo Ho DUI case? Furthermore, why can’t we get Kiefer Sutherland’s judge for her instead? A month or two in jail would do the junkie actress some good.

Lo Ho was ordered 4 days in jail and 10 days of community service. Allegedly, her debt has been paid as she served one day (supposedly) previously and got time counted for two of the days. As of Gossip Giants’ last Lo Ho story, she had one day left and more community service, but as of today, Lo Ho is claiming she has completed all her time served.

Her “last” day of jail time served lasted just 84 minutes. That gave her just enough time to give the sheriff a BJ and get all her fingerprinting and stuff done, too. No, we’re kidding about the BJ part (we don’t have proof of that one, but wouldn’t put it past Lindsay), but not the ‘brief’ time she spent in jail. Also, it is said she finished her 10 days of community service, but did anyone see Lindsay do more than the one day she spent working at the Red Cross?

The jailbird, Lo Ho turned herself in at the Lynwood Jail at 10:30 AM and was released by 11:54 AM. It was, after all, overcrowded, which is why she got away with serving just 84 minutes of her one day sentence. I’m sure she really learned her lesson. After being fingerprinted, having her mug shot taken, and all that other “official” jail stuff she spent a minimal amount of time in a holding cell before the sheriff at the jail let her go.

With so much Britney news to report each and every day I just didn’t have time to give an update on the Nick Hogan situation. The reality star of his father’s show, Hogan Knows Best, was finally arrested in relation to the August crash that sent his best friend, John, to the hospital, where he still remains in critical condition. All I have to say is, it’s about damn time!

E! News reported on November 7, 2007 that Nick Bollea (Hogan) has been arrested and charged on multiple counts including, ‘third-degree felony reckless driving involving serious bodily injury’, ‘illegal window tint’, ‘using a motor vehicle in commission of a felony’, and ‘being under the age of 21 and operating a vehicle with a breath-alcohol level of 0.02 percent or higher’. Yes, folks, it’s true. Nick was intoxicated when the crash happened. That puts a whole new spin on the case now doesn’t it?

A warranted was issued after what police are saying was an “extensive” investigation (you think?!) into the crash and Bollea turned himself in at 9:48 a.m. on Wednesday, November 7. After being booked at the Pinellas County Jail, he made his $10,000 bail and was released. It has also been concluded that Nick was racing 22 year old Daniel Jacobs. Jacobs must also appear in court to face his own reckless driving charge.

While Kiefer Sutherland will be spending more than a few days in the slammer for his DUI conviction, pop princess Lo Ho is completing her “plea deal” community service. I’d much rather have Kiefer out helping people then Lo Ho, but the judge in her case must have felt sorry for her since she’s been in and out of rehab more times then I can count. For someone so young, Lo Ho has really put Drew Barrymore and other former child star, drug addicts to shame. I mean, most of them got clean after one rehab stint. Lo Ho is in and out so much she should just move into a facility for good and call it a day.

Of course, Lindsay’s former junkie boyfriend, Riley Giles, who she stole from Bree Tierney (who claims the two were engaged before Lo Ho came along) has been helping her through all the cravings. They go clubbing to forget about the drugs and partying. Sounds like the perfect solution to me. It just means the two are on a one way trip back to rehab. Still, with Giles as Lo Ho’s current flavor of the month, we’ll see how long he lasts. You never know. Junkies like to flock together, so this pairing couldn’t be more perfect.

Nevertheless, Lindsay has started her community service. She’s worked at the LA Red Cross as a volunteer. I don’t know if this was the 1st or 10th day of community service for Lo Ho. So, if you were planning to give blood, I’d be careful if you live in LA. I am not sure what they are having her do, but I can’t see anyone giving a junkie a needle. Sure, they know how to use them, but taking blood and putting something in the vein isn’t really the same thing. At least not in my book.

Andrew Morton has written books about both Monica Lewinsky and Princess Diana, but this time he may be going too far. Morton has a biography coming out about Scientolofreak Tom Cruise and the Scientologists are fightin’ mad!

According to the Sunday Express and In Touch Magazine, Tom is furious, Katie is petrified, and the Scientologists are crazy enough to try and do anything to stop this book from happening next year as planned. The book, which looks to be an interesting read whether you like Cruise or not, is said to explore Tom and Katie’s relationship (or lack thereof), his sexuality, and his odd and controversial religious beliefs.

Rule number one: If you get in trouble for having a bad temper and some anger management problems then when you go to prison you should pretend like these problems don’t exist. This is especially true if you want to get out for good behavior.

However, no one sent Riker’s inmate, Foxy Brown this memo. Apparently Foxy has had to be moved from general population and into her own, segregated cell due to a few problems that she has had while in lockup.

She was tossed into isolation on October 16 and will be there for at least 76 days. Apparently the thing that caused Foxy’s trip to the private cell was a shoving match with an inmate. After that Foxy became verbally abusive to one of the officers and she has refused to take any drug tests.

While I normally write multiple stories, I’m suffering from a severe pulled muscle in my shoulder, making it near impossible to type for long periods of time. Not wanting to disappoint Gossip Giant fans, I’ve compiled a list of some of the best gossip on the web, so you won’t have withdraws during my (hopefully) speedy recovery.

No, it’s not Vanessa this time, but Disney has more trouble brewing for their “wholesome” image. One of the voices of their hit show, Kim Possible, was busted this weekend for driving under the influence. I guess it just goes to show, the young blondes of Hollywood don’t seem to be learning a thing from Paris and Lindsay, except how to get caught that is.

The offender this time is 23 year old Kirsten Storms. Kirsten is best known by soap fans as “Belle Black” on Days of Our Lives. She also played Maxie Jones on General Hospital. Storms was pulled over on the Los Angeles Freeway by a CHP officer. Initially, she was pulled over, not due to swerving or weaving. Instead, it was because she threw a lit cigarette out the window of her blue Mercedes.

Foxy Brown had her sentencing hearing today and it did not go as well for her as she would have hoped. In fact, she will be spending a year in the slammer. The Judge, Melissa Jackson sentenced Brown because she felt that the rapper did not take her probation seriously and she wanted to treat her like she would any other defendant, celebrity or not.

Brown attempted to ask for another chance saying, “Being in jail humbled me in a way I never imagined. I realize that is not where I want to be.” The judge wasn’t hearing any of that though and sent her to jail, informing her that she had given her a chance previously and that chance had been squandered away.

The mother of John Graziano is speaking out now about the car crash that her son was in with reality television star, Nick Bollea, son of Hulk Hogan. Graziano’s mother has confirmed that there was a silver Viper that Hogan was racing. The driver of the Viper has been identified as Danny Jacobs.

Debbie Granziano sent an exclusive email to Bay News 9 in Florida to release the following information. “His best friend Danny, the driver in the other car, is devastated.”

In the email, Graziano also made sure that she squashed the idea that the Hogan’s would monetarily suffer for what has happened to her son.

Graziano says, “Two families are devastated. Two mothers are comforting each other and caring for each other’s children according to their needs, and will continue to do so until, as Terry said, we walk John out of here … Terry and Linda love my son and saw him as a good role model to Nick. … Since day one of this nightmare they have been with us physically, emotionally, mentally and financially.”
