Graham Shear, the attorney for actor Jude Law, has released the following statement on behalf of Law concerning the alleged attack on a photographer on Tuesday.
“I can confirm that Jude Law voluntarily attended Marylebone Police Station yesterday following an alleged incident outside his house earlier in the day. Mr. Law provided the police with a statement regarding his denials of allegations by a ‘paparazzi’ photographer against him and made his own allegations concerning the photographer. Jude has the utmost respect for the police and whilst this is an ongoing matter no further comment will be made.”

Police arrested Jude Law today for the alleged attack of a photographer that was outside his London home. According to news reports, the actor attempted to grab a photographer’s camera during an incident on Tuesday. While Law was released on bail he will have to return to the London police station in October.
Reps for Law are not talking at this point and police are staying tight lipped, as well. However, police did admit that a 34 year old man in the same neighborhood as Law was arrested on alleged bodily harm charges. The man, who was not named, was said to have voluntarily complied with the police and went to the police station for questioning. Continue reading →

First it’s the “cripples” (as he called them), then the women who are “producing machines who bring babies into the world”, and now it’s the F…homosexuals. Regardless of the repeated slips of the tongue, Jerry wants you to know he’s sorry. Again. No really. He’s seriously sorry this time.
“I obviously made a bad choice of words. Everyone who knows me understands that I hold no prejudices in this regard,” Lewis said in a statement. “The success of the (telethon) and all the good that will come from it shouldn’t be lost because of one unfortunate word. I accept responsibility for what I said. There are no excuses. I am sorry.”

When Michael Vick stood up on August 28 to give a press conference it was expected that he would say he was wrong and he was sorry. After all, the day before he pleaded guilty to dog fighting charges and he wanted to seem sincere. Now it’s likely that he’s learned one thing from this event. The lesson is that when you leave a podium you should take your cheat sheet with you.
Vick had six options according to his cheat sheet including.
1. Apologize for what I’ve done
2. Apologize to coach and team
3. Tell young kids that “I acted immature”
4. Ask for forgiveness and understanding
5. Take full responsibility for actions
6. Remind others that we all make mistakes

Amy Winehouse and her husband are no longer in St. Lucia at the Jade Mountain Resort, but when they were, their hotel room was searched on a daily basis. The staff made sure that the couple was not using drugs in the hotel room of the exclusive resort.
A Sun Magazine source said that security began doing spot searches after guests reported “strange smells” coming from the room of the couple. The source also said, “They would have been kicked out if there was evidence of drug use.”
While they may not have found anything, you would think that the bloody vomit session was enough to question what the rocker was doing. I figure either she ate some bad seafood or she had her drugs hidden somewhere the hotel wasn’t looking. Where that spot is, I’m not even willing to speculate.

On Friday, Edward Graziano was arrested for violating a domestic violence injunction. Graziano is the father of John Graziano, the young man who was a passenger in Nick Hogan’s car when he struck a tree during an alleged street race. Edward Graziano reportedly became violent with family members on Thursday at the Bayfront Medical Center, in the ICU ward.
The police were called to the hospital that afternoon after Graziano’s wife admitted that her husband became physical during an argument with family members. Once the matter was taken care of and Graziano left, his wife renewed a previous domestic violence injunction that she had against her husband. The injunction dealt with a June 21 arrest for domestic battery, battery on a law enforcement officer, and witness tampering.

In the 18th hour of the Jerry Lewis Labor Day Telethon, the not so stable Jerry Lewis made a major on air faux pas. While discussing the family of his cameraman Bart, he made the mistake of either calling the cameraman’s one son an illiterate fag or an illiterate fatty. It’s hard to hear which one he says. Either way, it was in very poor taste.
I made the call to get rid of Jerry last year. He has long referred to former “Jerry’s Kids” who oppose his methods for raising cash, as the “cripples”. He’s also said they are worth nothing and have pathetic excuses for lives. This type of verbal diarrhea is unacceptable by someone who is supposed to be helping a cause, not hurting it. He just keeps making the MDA look bad in the long run.

Last week Lil Kim got caught doing some driving without a license in a car with no plates. Should you find yourself in this situation, she has some advice that may help you get off. First of all, never stick to one story. Be brave and change things up at will! Also, never be afraid to make things up that could not possibly be true!
For example, tell police that your plate-free car was delivered from California as a gift from your boyfriend. If the cops seem disinterested, up the anti and tell them that cars in California do not require license plates so it’s natural that yours doesn’t have one. See? Problem solved.
If the police question you on your lack of license, just tell them that you have a license that is valid in another state, but you just forgot to bring it for your drive. Lil Kim said her license was from New Jersey. She doesn’t actually have one, but the lie got her released, so it’s all good.

Just yesterday I was reporting that Amy Winehouse was ready to give up her days in rehab and her night’s of partying with horses for a new life with a baby. Today, The Mirror is reporting about a disgusting mess that Winehouse created in her Caribbean hotel room this week.
The Mirror reports that there was blood and vomit all over the bathroom of Winehouse’s room at the Jade Mountain Resort in St. Lucia, where the couple has been staying for over a week. A staff member is quoted as saying, “There was blood and vomit all over the bathroom. It was just terrible. It looked like she’d been sick many times. There was blood mixed up in the vomit. It was sickening. They were horrified by the state of the room which looked like a bomb had hit it.”
The hotel management attempted to be as diplomatic as possible by offering to send out for a doctor, but Winehouse declined saying she would be fine. Meanwhile, Winehouse and her inability to hold her drugs and alcohol caused part of the hotel to shut down for a brief while when she vomited on a sofa in the resort’s restaurant.

When I was a little girl, my momma told me that you needed a license to drive a car. Plates wouldn’t hurt either. Apparently, no one passed these messages on to rapper Lil Kim (Kim Jones). She was pulled over last night in Manhattan when she decided to take her Lamborghini for a drive without plates or a license.
The police noticed the ex-con at a filling station getting some gas. First they noticed that the car had no tags. Next thing you know, they are discovering she is without a license. Never fear though, she was not detained or anything serious. Lil Kim’s lawyer swept in to pick her up and drive her sports car into the sunset.
While police will confirm that she was stopped, mums the word on whether she received any form of punishment (tickets) for driving without a license.

During the DMX raid investigators found a chunky substance in the bedroom of the rappers home that was not a narcotic. Unfortunately, they currently don’t know what it was. Sheriff Joe Arpaio says they are investigating to find out what type of powder that it is. He does go on to say, “We did seize a useable quantity of marijuana. He does have a drug situation there.”
All in all, investigators have found 12 malnourished dogs, guns, ammo, drug paraphernalia, and three dead dogs during the raid on DMX’s Cave Creek residence. Police are investigating to find out whether the rapper was legally allowed to have the guns. Currently no charges have been made.

Foxy and Riker’s just don’t mix
Despite efforts of the three month pregnant, Foxy Brown to get out of Riker’s Island on an early release, the judges on the case aren’t about to budge. Brown’s lawyers claimed that the decision that was made by the judge to put her in jail last week was unlawful. Unfortunately, that didn’t work and she remains in prison, where they are saying she is, “suffering greatly.” She will remain in, at least, until her probation hearing on September 7.
Moynahan not Brady
The Moynahan/Brady baby has been named and he does not have his baby daddy last name. The child’s name is John Edward Thomas Moynahan. Thomas and Edward are Tom Brady’s first and middle name, so he is in there somewhere, just not where it counts completely. The child is the first for both for the now defunct couple. The two broke up while Moynahan was pregnant.

These days, Michael Vick has become a household name. Whether you like football or the Atlanta Falcons everyone knows who this former player is and it has nothing to do with his game. Last week, Vick admitted to his part in a violent dog fighting ring after his father and others sold him out. Since then the NFL has suspended him indefinitely and have called his actions, “cruel and reprehensible.” He also stands to lose millions of dollars worth of endorsements, such as Nike, which has already cancelled the need for Vick’s services. However, Vick still has one fan in this crazy world. He has his momma, Brenda Vick.
Like a true mother (of someone like Lindsay Lohan), Vick sobbed while being interviewed by the New York Post. A man who is being convicted of dog fighting and owning things like rape stands (used for exactly what you think) for dogs and breaksticks (used to pry apart animals jaws) still has his momma on his side.
“They are trying to put my baby in jail, and for what? Everybody makes mistakes,” she said as she was interviewed from her mansion in Virginia. Better yet, that’s the mansion that her son bought her. “He is not a criminal . . . He’s a good person. He has a big heart, and it just hurts.” Someone needs to tell momma that good people don’t own anything called….rape sticks.

Darren Hayes was known for being the front runner (at one point) for the now defunct band, Savage Garden, before going out on his own. He was arrested last week on the charge of racism. He reportedly was racially abusive to a waiter in a Thai restaurant. There is more to the story, but I just have to say, if you’re racist why go into a Thai restaurant or any kind of ethnic place? I think I am missing something here.
Hayes was taken in by Westminster police for racially abusing the staff of Busaba Eathai on July 22. A spokesman for the Scotland Yard confirmed that a 35 year old man was arrested for the aforementioned crime. antiMusic is reporting that Hayes voluntarily turned himself in and is out on bail at this time. However, it is being said elsewhere that he is denying the claims of making racist comments.
