Lindsay Lohan Home Confinement Details
by Roberta Ferguson on May.31, 2011, under articles

Now that Lindsay Lohan has been confined to her home for 35 days for her jewelry theft conviction. Yet we still keep seeing her pop up in endorsement deals and photo opps. Why, you might wonder?
Lindsay is basically a prisoner in her own home in Venice, California. She’s wearing an ankle monitoring device, but that doesn’t mean she’s not allowed to have people come over. Even if that means it’s the paparazzi!
There are rules, however. She isn’t allowed to leave, unless her outing is pre-approved. Below, we have a list of what she’s allowed and not allowed to do.
She is allowed:
Lindsay can leave her townhouse for medical appointments or go to the probation department, as long as she gives advance notice.
She can have visitors without any type of restrictions.
She is allowed to use the telephone and internet. (Twitter!)
She isn’t allowed:
She cannot leave the premises of her home without getting prior consent, otherwise her ankle bracelet will inform authorities.
She cannot perform her community service during this 35 day span or attend any work-related events.
She is not allowed to tamper with her ankle monitoring device, as it would sound off an alarm to those monitoring her activities.
Do you think the punishment fits the crime? Let us know in the comments!

by Jed Eckert on Mar.01, 2011, under articles

Christina Aguilera and her boyfriend Matthew Rutler were arrested earlier this morning in West Hollywood!
They busted Christina for public intoxication and Matthew was arrested for driving under the influence.
A source said that Christina appeared to be “extremely intoxicated” and was “unable to take care of herself.” The snitch added, “If the driver her NOT been arrested for DUI, she would have never been in trouble.”
His bail was set at $30,000 for the misdemeanor offense. Maybe Christina will check into rehab has her friends have suggested?
And where’s the mug shot photo????

by Roberta Ferguson on Sep.30, 2010, under articles

Teen Mom star Amber Portwood has been investigated for assault on her ex-fiance, Gary Shirley, after she allegedly beat the crap out of him in the pre-taped episode.
Lt. Paul Boulware of the Anderson Police Department said the department wasn’t aware of the fight until Wednesday, when the department’s victim’s advocate received two anonymous e-mails urging police to look into the incident.
“We assigned an officer to it this afternoon,” Boulware said.
The episode, which was pre-taped, features a fight between Portwood and Shirley that begins when Shirley questions Portwood about crib sheets on their daughter’s bed.
Wow, she clearly has problems!

by Roberta Ferguson on Sep.08, 2010, under articles

Snooki appeared in court today over her annoying drunken charge. The judge said that she seemed like a Lindsay Lohan wannabe and sentenced her to the following:
$500 in fines
$33 in court costs
2 days of community service
He said that all of the other charges have been dropped. Do you think that’s fair? She did apologize to the Seaside Heights cops.
What do you think? Justice? Or celebrity justice???
Paris Hilton released from jail quick; got preferential treatment
by Jed Eckert on Sep.07, 2010, under articles

When Paris Hilton was released from that Las Vegas jail for cocaine possession, she got sprung much quicker than your average Joe – in about half the time, no less.
Why? Because Paris is special? Well, not so much. Apparently, the authorities were so worried about the ruckus caused by her presence that they released her much quicker than those with much lesser offenses.
The Las Vegas Review Journal reports:
“Yeah, she was treated differently so I don’t have a disruption of my process here at the county jail,” said Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Deputy Chief Jim Dixon, who runs the detention center. “When you bring somebody in like that, everybody comes over and tries to look at them. I’d have officers attempting to keep inmates away from her. I’d have disruptions.”
So just because they wanted her out early, she was released in less time than those who have committed lesser offenses. She was sprung from jail in three hours. I’m not buying it. Are you?

It’s not fair!
According to TMZ, Warrant singer Jani Lane just pleaded no contest to his DUI arrest from May. He has been sentenced to complete 120 days in jail.
Besides the jail time — Lane will lose his license for three years and will have to complete a 30-month alcohol education program.
We’re told Jani is scheduled to surrender on July 27.
That sucks, but as you’ll find with cases like these…if you do the crime, you have to do the time!

Lindsay Lohan could face a second charge?
by Jeffrey Noble on Jul.08, 2010, under articles

Lindsay Lohan could face a charge of contempt of court, after quietly dropping a tidy little “FU” to the court.
The actress had her nails done, but seemingly wrote on her middle finger a tiny little message that could land her in more hot water. If the judge thinks she was directing it toward the court she could face a contempt of court charge.
Her Twitter claims “didn’t we do our nails as a joke with our friend dc? it had nothing to do w/court.. it’s an airbrush design from a stencil xx”.
She better be careful the next time she goes to court. The extra sentence will be added on to her 90 day sentence if the judge determines that she’s in contempt. This judge already laid the smack down, so why would she wanna push it?
SUCKS to be her but she kinda did ask for it when she waltzed into court with the F-BOMB written on her nail.
Lindsay Lohan’s big ‘FU’ to the courts & media
by Lydia Harris on Jul.07, 2010, under articles

In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past 24 hours, actress Lindsay Lohan was sentenced to complete a term of ninety days in jail.
She was sentenced earlier today for violating the terms of her probation in her 2007 DUI case. She wailed and cried as she pleaded with the judge that she was in compliance and blamed her non-compliance on the Right On program, but Judge Marsha Revel was having none of it. She sentenced Lindsay to jail, in-patient rehab and probation. She is due to surrender to the police on July 20th at 8:30 a.m.
All the while during her court hearing, Lindsay was fidgety and nervous. But that might be because she had a little bit of a secret. On her pastel manicured fingernails, she had a message for the court/media/her detractors.
Well said, Lindsay. But we think that the courts are obviously going to have the last laugh here.
Amy Winehouse to face assault charges?
by Roberta Ferguson on Dec.21, 2009, under articles
I guess this wouldn’t be the first time Amy Winehouse has lashed out at someone.
Amy was in attendance at a local theater, watching a Cinderella play when she started spouting off obscenities during the show. Parents complained about her shouting and swearing and she was asked to move to a private box.
She allegedly attacked the theater manager, Richard Pound, kicking him in the groin and pulling his hair. There has been no complaint filed as of yet, but the incident is under investigation.

Leona Lewis gets slapped at book signing
by Roberta Ferguson on Oct.14, 2009, under articles
Leona Lewis was at Waterstones book store in London earlier today, signing copies of her autobiography, “Dreams”, when she was assaulted by a man.
The man allegedly slapped the singer, and was subsequently arrested.
A Scotland Yard spokesman said, “The female did not require hospital treatment – we are at the scene.”
That’s just awful, I hope she gets some better security for any future outings. Shame on that guy for hitting a lady.
