Courtney Love has Lost Custody of Frances Bean


 Hole singer Courtney Love has lost custody of her daughter with her late husband Kurt Cobain.  On December 11, 2009 custody of Frances Bean Cobain, 17, was given to Wendy O'Connor and Kimberly Dawn Cobain, Kurt's mother and sister, respectively.  Love's lawyer has indicated that Frances chose to live with her grandmother, rather than being taken from her mother.  O'Connor also had custody of Frances in 2003 and 2004.  The custody issue will be revisited in February.  Frances will be 18 in August.  The court ruling does not give Frances' grandmother and aunt control over her trust fund.

Tiger Woods Drama Continues


UPDATE: The woman who was taken to the hospital by ambulance has been identified as Barbro Holmberg, 57, of Sweden.  She is Elin Nordegren's mother and Tiger Woods' mother-in-law.  Contrary to earlier reports, she has not been released from the hospital, she remains hospitalized in stable condition with security posted at the door of her private hospital room.  She was reportedly taken to the hospital due to abdominal pains.

A woman described as a middle-aged blonde was rushed from the home of Tiger Woods by ambulance at 2:36 this morning.  A black Escalade driven by a woman who appeared to be Elin Nordegren arrived at the hospital quickly afterwords.  Elin's mother and twin sister are rumored to be staying with her.  Many news outlets have reported that the woman was on advanced life support, however, Fox News is reporting that she has already been released.

More information has come forward regarding the night of the accident.  According to the subpoena request obtained by TMZ Elin Woods claimed that Tiger was drinking the day of the accident and had prescriptions for vicodin and ambien.  When officers arrived Tiger was lying in the street snoring after Elin removed him from the vehicle.  He has described by officers as being incoherent and drifting in and out of consciousness at the scene.  Tiger refused to give a blood sample to police and their request for a subpoena was unsuccessful.  TMZ is claiming that Tiger was admitted to the hospital following the accident as an OD.  The police only fined Tiger $164 for careless driving and gave him four points against his license after the single car accident in which he hit a fire hydrant and a tree while attempting to leave his property.

The day before the accident the National Enquirer broke a story claiming that Tiger was having an affair.  This was believed to be the cause of the alleged argument that caused Tiger to flee in the middle of the night without so much as putting on his shoes.  A widely publicized voice mail has been released where Tiger asks his alleged mistress to remove her name from her voicemail because his wife has looked through his phone and may be calling seems to confirm this tension between the couple.  Tiger has denied any argument.  Since the accident there have been no fewer than 10 women claiming to also have had affairs with Tiger Woods.

Polanski Can't Attempt to Flee Until Friday


We had previously reported that Roman Polanski, 76, is out of a Swiss jail on 4.5 million bail.  That is not yet true.  His bail has been approved at 4.5 million.  He has not yet been released because he has not yet posted the bail.  

He is expected to post the money by Friday.  He will then be under house arrest in his mansion in the Swiss Alps.  He was convicted in 1977 of having sex with a 13 year old girl in the United States.  He fled before sentencing and has been living a lavish life in France, who refused to extradite him.  Apparently France likes pedophiles.

Polanski was arrested on a 31 year-old international arrest warrant in Switzerland.  The United States requested extradition on October 23, 2009.  Polanski is likely to forfeit the 4.5 million bail and attempt to flee again, based on his past history.  Most of Hollywood refused to hold him accountable for his past acts.

Those Poor Hasselhoff Girls - Mom Busted for DUI Again while Dad in the Hospital



David Hasselhoff's daughter Hayley, 17, has had to call 911 for her father at least twice this year.  The most recent call came November 27, 2009 after David Hasselhoff was found unconscious in his home after suffering a seizure.  That incident was allegedly caused by a drinking binge. 

On November 28, 2009, while David was still in the hospital, reportedly on a 5150 hold, Hayley's mother, and David's ex-wife was arrested for DUI.  She was also arrested for felony DUI in March.  The couple, who divorced three years ago, also has another daughter, Taylor, 19.

Pamela has been released from jail and David has been released from the hospital.  Hopefully they are spending time with their daughters, not with a bottle.

TMZ Reporting that Tiger's Wife Caused His Injuries - Not the Car Accident


TMZ is now reporting that Tiger's wife Elin Nordegren scratched the golfer's face up after confronting him about reports that he was having an affair with Rachel Uchitel.  Tiger Woods then tried to escape his angry wife who allegedly chased after him with a golf club, beating on his car and breaking his window.  At this point a distracted Tiger hit the fire hydrant and then the tree. Rachel Uchitel denies the affair.

Tiger Woods may have been taking prescription painkillers at the time of the crash.  The couple have two small children together.  Elin apparently pulled her husband out of the vehicle and placed him in the road where she was standing over him when police arrived.  He was reportedly unconscious for up to six minutes.  Radar Online has photos of the accident scene with the vehicle wrapped around the tree.

David Hasselhoff Found Unconscious in his Residence - Rushed to Hospital



David Hasselhoff, 57, was taken to the hospital after he was found unconscious and his daughter, Haley, called 911.  He was apparantly drooling with his eyes rolled back in his head when found.  He was transported to the hospital just prior to noon on Friday.  

Haley last called 911 for her father in September when he was hospitalized for drinking.  David Hasselhoff reportedly takes anti-seizure medication and it is possible that he suffered a seizure in this incidence.  It is also possible that the hospitalization is alcohol related, as he has been hospitalized for alcohol poisoning several times in the past and has reportedly been involved in additional alcohol related incidents in both October and November of this year.

Polanski Out on Bail in Switzerland


Roman Polanski has gotten out on bail.  He has put up $4.5 million to get on house arrest in Switzerland.   This is a man with unlimited resources who has a history of flight risk.  Good job, Switzerland.  Polanski has been negotiating with Switzerland ever since he was arrested, apparently he doesn't like jail.  Little girls don't like being raped, either.  I'm convinced he will never see justice.

Adam Lambert Humps Someone's Face, Kisses a Man on TV: People Get Upset



Adam Lambert gave a performance at the American Movie Awards that was extremely reminiscent of David Bowie's over-the-top performances.   He was pretending to hump a male dancers face one minute, then moving on to lead leather clad men around on leashes with a whip.  Near the end of the song he grabbed his male keyboardist and kissed him fully on the mouth.  He also flipped off the audience.

People are upset, ABC has reportedly logged about 1,500 complaints.  However, he was the last act of the night, airing around 11 pm in most places.  The FCC general rules cover only between 6am and 10pm but leave open the possibility of fines after this time period for obscene material.  ABC has said that the offending material was not included in Lambert's rehearsals. 

Some people, including Adam Lambert, are saying that the uproar is a double standard because women have done the kiss before, at award shows.  There may be a double standard but I would also like to point out a distinction.  The other award show with the Madonna/Britney Spears kiss was the MTV Video Music Awards, MTV is a cable channel, ABC is a broadcast channel and as such, is generally held to higher standards by the FCC.

Brandi Ganville Wants $40,000 a Month from Eddie Cibrian, Wants LeAnn Rimes to Stay Away from Their Kids


Brandi Glanville and Eddie Cibrian are divorcing.  They are both hot.  LeAnn Rimes is decidedly not, but Eddie left Brandi and their two sons, ages 6 and 2, for her.  Brandi has been a stay at home mom for years, allegedly at Eddie's request.  Now she needs money  to maintain the lifestyle they had together. 

Interesting points in her Friday court filing include that Eddie makes at least $60,000 a week (gross) on his new show, CSI: Miami.  Apparently the mortgage alone is $11,942.  She spends $3,000 a month on clothing, $4,000 on entertainment, $4,000 on eating out, and an anticipated $2000 car payment.  Brandi also states in the filing that the children have been with her 90% of the time since the separation and that she doesn't want Eddie to come to her house unless he is invited.  She also says that Eddie Cibrian will not tell her his exact address.  In addition she wants $50,000 in attorney fees.

Brandi told E! Entertainment last week that she doesn't want LeAnn Rimes to meet her kids.  She feels it's way too soon and that the children are already confused.

 The Sacramento Kings were playing the San Antonio Spurs when suddenly a bat appeared on the scene.  It was flying around the court when the game went into a "bat delay."  On this Halloween night the players and fans were all swatting at the bat whenever it got close to them.  After a few minutes Manu Genobili had enough and when the bat flew by again he reached up and swatted the bat to the ground, where it laid, apparently dead.  Genobili then picked up the bat and walked it over to an usher, who took it off his hands.  After a squirt of hand sanitizer the game was back on.  PETA is going to be all over this one.

Michael Lohan has been on a one man media blitz lately, telling everyone who will listen that his daughter, Lindsay, is addicted to prescription drugs, even claiming that he will kidnap her to make sure she gets help.  Michael has been on Access Hollywood, The Insider, and The Maury Povich Show in an attempt to get help for Lindsay.  She has been looking pretty haggard lately. 

While Michael Lohan has been telling anyone and everyone about Lindsay's alleged addiction, Lindsay's mom, Dina, has been publicly saying Lindsay is fine.  Lindsay herself says she's scared of her father and getting a restraining order.  To prove a difference in Dina's statements regarding Lindsay in public and in private, Michael is going on Entertainment Tonight and playing Dina's voicemails, which reportedly contain recordings where Dina calls Michael frantically, claiming that Lindsay is going to die and she doesn't have much time left.
