Just Like Kicking Lionel Richie In The Balls...

from the ...But More Painful dept.

Like a kernel of truth in a vast sea of unfunny, Jay Leno let slip last night that there are more than careless whispers that American Idol goof Justin Guarini and Simple Life and faux rehab goof Nicole Richie are soon to marry. Betcha Kevin Eubanks laughed and fiddled with his guitar.

Tommy Lee Attacks The Internet (Dude)!

from the Ink 19 Next! Ink 19 Next! dept.

Righteous rocker Tommy Lee recently attacked the feisty posters at metal news haven Blabbermouth.net for having the temerity to criticize his planned foray into electronic music djing (chuckle). Obviously the Blabbermouth faithful smelled a trend-jumping rat and called him on it, at which point a surely sober Lee fired back with an explective-strewn and badly-spelled defense. Among the highlights: "By all these great user names I can tell your a bunch of old 80's stuck in a time warp, jealous, pathetic, losers, wishin I was someone, punk ass, hide behind my laptop, droolin like a pedofile at the nearest school waiting for the bell to ring." And it looks as though Lars Ulrich jumped in on the fun under a very shoddily-constructed pseudonym as well...

Vince Neil: Lord Of The Pimp Slap

from the Girls, Girls, Girls... Take Cover dept.

Reality tv star Vince Neil pleaded no contest to assaulting prostitute (get ready) TrixXxie Blue at the Moonlite Bunny Runch brothel in Nevada. Bunny Ranch owner Dennis Hof, clearly terrified he's not going to get his promised signed drumsticks, jumped to Neil's defense: "It's sad to see Vince [enter a plea] because in my mind this girl's an opportunist and I know that Vince did nothing wrong . . . I assume he did this to avoid having a lengthy trial. I will support him to the end." Dennis Hof, truly you are the real Dr. Feelgood.

Love In Diamond Dermabrasion Courtroom Drama

from the Derm-And-Dash Is The New Punk Rock dept.

Courtney Love, "no stranger to plastic surgery," or as we like to say, "the Phyllis Diller of alternative rock," is at the center of yet another weirdo conflict. This time a beauty therapist took Love to court (and won) over Love's refusal to pay for cosmetic services rendered. The services rendered in this case were tiny diamonds scrubbing the skin on her face. All well and good, but did this beauty therapist keep mum about Courtney's hideously enlarged waxed lips during their sessions?

The couple, married for 54 years, were the parents of Alfred Matthew Yankovic, their only child.

The Orange County Sheriff's Office said Thursday that it has received 24 complaints similar to Rivera's since the April 2 arrest of Michael C. Chartrand on charges that he molested a mother and daughter while he was in costume as the friendly tiger character from the Winnie the Pooh stories.
