Clifford Harris, aka TI, has been sentenced to one year in prison stemming from 2007 weapons charges. Clifford tried to purchase unlicensed automatic machine guns and silencers hours after he headlined for BET’s hip-hop awards. Harris has already served over 1,000 community service hours teaching young kids about the effects of guns, drugs, and violence. He has 30-60 days to report to prison and still has about 500 hours of community service left. We love TI and wish him the best and predict that he will have a successful comeback.
A Cape Cod police officer has been discharged following a recent incident at a Metallica show in Boston. The Brewster officer, Joseph Houston, was allegedly kicked out of the show for being drunk and disorderly. After his removal, the cop allegedly flashed his badge to regain entrance. After his return, the cop proceeded to drain his main vein on a young Connecticut couple. These are the idiots that get the job and have no respect for the position. Cops get bad names because of fools like this.
Jenny McCarthy has been “Singled out” by her ex-husband/actor/director John Ashford. The couple was married from 1999-2005 before they split due to their child’s battle with autism. Her ex recently stated that he misses the former Playmate of the Year most in the sack. Apparently, he claims that she always spiced things up with threesomes and more. He also stated that her new fling, Jim Carrey, must be having the time of his life. It’s nice to see that a father would rat out his wife like this for some publicity.
Lebron James seems to have a pretty good sense of humor when it comes to the fame and glory he has amassed. That showed the other night as in the pre-game ceremony he turned the tape and became the paparazzi. Posing as a photographer, Lebron shot images of his teammates as they posed. It wouldn’t be a story if it ended there. In a following game, Shaq tried to one up the “King” by bowling down his teammates in the pre-game ceremony. Big Daddy concluded with the comment “Take That Lebron.” More like take that bowling to the lanes in June when I am in the NBA Eastern Eonference finals. That’s right, I brought it. Celtics vs. Cavs.
Professional wrestler Kurt Angler had a very interesting interview on the Howard Stern show. The wrestler manhandled several different controversial topics. First of all, there was the topic of how Kurt battled pain killer addictions about 5 years ago where he would pop about 65 perks a day. Can somebody say liver. I have taken a few before and felt pretty nice, but that is insane. Kurt also touched on the issue that he tried to go to rehab to take care of the problem but Vince McMahon insisted that he rectify the issue by himself. The interview then turned to his recent divorce (2 Months) from his ex Karen. He stated multiple times that he had made her a millionaire and that he was positive that she was screwing around with someone in the pro wrestling circuit. The final comments of the show turned to Kurt reading Robin a poem and trying to court the Stern co host. Of course, there was a lot of banter, especially after Angler proclaimed that he wasn’t hung that well. Kurt Angle will be facing Hiroshi Tanahashi for the IWGP Heavyweight Title at the New Japan Pro Wrestling ‘Resolution 2009’ PPV on April 5.
Mr. Letterman lived up to the name of the show that made him famous in real life. His girlfriend, Regina Lasko, must view the recent occurrence as a little too late of show. After two decades of dating and producing a son, David and Regina have been married. David revealed the facts last night on his show. He made several jokes about being a desperado to other men who envied his determination to wait. However, try to tell your girlfriend that it will be about two decades before you consider getting married and I am sure that you will be on the couch. I know I would. Sorry Harrison, 7 1/2 years was a decent story until Dave out bid you.
Harrison Ford proposed to Calista Flockhart on Valentines day this year making this his 3rd marriage crusade. Indiana Jones and Ally McBeal have been dating for 7 1/2 years and have an adopted son Liam. I know that Han Solo is quite the action figure, but Ally is only 44 while he is pushing into his late 60’s. Makes me wonder if her lawyer experience has deterred a prenuptial agreement? I do like the both of them and wish them well as they have obviously proved to be a decent pair. Good for you Harrison.
Lance Armstrong broke his right collar bone in Spain on a leg of a race that I cannot pronounce so I won”t even try to spell. The larger story here is the surgery he will be required to have in the coming week and his recovery time associated. Lance retired after winning seven straight titles and recently returned in hopes of getting his eight triumphant ride through Paris in July. Only the lucky few who have let their drunk friends punch them in the clavical know how much it lingers. Then again, if there is anything farther from a brawling drunk than Mr. Armstrong, I quit. My sentiments are simply that I wish him the best as if I believe anyone can do it, he can. Live Strong!
Damon Dash once had an empire worth $50 million dollars before selling his stake of Rocawear in 2005 to Jay-Z for $20 million. Now, the hip-hop executive owes about $2 million in state taxes and is in the process of having his house foreclosed. Multiple lawsuits and bad business deals have plagued him in recent years. To throw fuel on his fire, his wife of 4 years, Rachel Roy, has filed for divorce. Does the wife get half of his debt? I doubt it. From appearances in Jay-Z’s “Big Pimpin” video to appearances big wimping.
I have always been an avid basketball fan as well as a caring citizen. So, when I heard and saw Dwayne Wade outdo himself one again the other night, I almost lost it. Check this. Michael Stolzenberg is an 8-year-old boy from Florida that had a near death run-in due to a bacterial infection from a bug bite. The situation was so serious that his 7-month hospital stay took both hands and feet. Pretty rough for a avid football, lacrosse, and video game player. Wade has made countless contributions to the youth in Florida is his years and developed a special relationship with Michael that culminated in a recent trip to Stolzenberg’s bedroom full of Miami Heat memorabilia. Wade noticed that a jersey was missing and shed his at a recent game to add to Michael’s collection. I believe that NBA players that give back to their communities like Wade are a special bunch and often get overshadowed by the few ignorant ones. Even if Wade doesn’t become the MVP of the league (Tough Competition,) he is the most valuable asset of the league.
