Couple Admits to Offering Drugs to Amy Winehouse


Amy Winehouse has a one of a kind voice. Her voice is very urban soulful and unique. Most definitely no one could ever copy her songs or make a cover. Will drugs really effect her career? If you really think about it, drugs could mess up a normal persons life..imagine a music star? Even her own father wonders if drugs will kill her. I found this article on a british couple that apparently sold drugs to her. They didn't charge Winehouse but the police did charge the couple for selling the drugs.
A British couple who sold video footage of singer Amy Winehouse apparently smoking crack to a newspaper have pleaded guilty to drug charges. Johnny Blagrove and Cara Burton admitted in court Friday they offered to supply drugs, including cocaine and ecstasy, to Winehouse. Prosecutors say the pair covertly filmed Winehouse and sold the footage to The Sun newspaper. In January the paper published the images, which appeared to show the singer smoking crack cocaine.Detectives decided there was not enough evidence to charge Winehouse but they charged the couple. Prosecutor Sean Larkin says police who raided the couple’s home found a list of celebrities they supplied with drugs, including Winehouse.

A judge ordered the couple to return Nov. 28 for sentencing.

Hudson suspect had June drug arrest


The convicted felon suspected in the Chicago slayings of Oscar-winner Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother and nephew was arrested on a drug charge in June, but authorities declined to return him to prison on a parole violation, internal parole records show.

Corrections Department spokesman Derek Schnapp said officials who reviewed the cocaine-possession case against William Balfour determined "the evidence that was presented during that time wouldn't have necessarily warranted a violation."

A judge dismissed the charge for lack of probable cause in July, but under the strict rules of the state's parole program, Balfour could have gone back to prison just for the arrest.

No one has been charged in the shooting deaths of Hudson's mother, 57-year-old Darnell Donerson, her brother, 29-year-old Jason Hudson, and 7-year-old nephew Julian King.
The older victims were found in the family's home Friday afternoon. Julian's body was found in the back of an SUV on Chicago's West Side on Monday; authorities declared his death a homicide Tuesday.

Around the time the first bodies were found, Balfour's parole agent had reached him by phone after Balfour missed a meeting with him that day. Balfour told the agent he was "baby-sitting on the West Side of Chicago," according to the documents, obtained by The Associated Press.

The agent said he thought he heard a child in the background during the call. Balfour was taken into custody later Friday.

Balfour, Julian's stepfather and the estranged husband of Hudson's sister, served seven years for attempted murder and vehicular hijacking.

The Illinois Department of Corrections issued a warrant for Balfour on Saturday for violating terms of his parole by possessing a weapon and failing to attend anger management counseling and a substance abuse program, according to his parole history report.

The records indicate a parole supervisor declined to issue a warrant to revoke Balfour's parole after Chicago police arrested him June 19 for possession of cocaine.

Jumped the Shark


It happens to the best of television shows. After a few strong seasons, a series takes a wrong turn that fans find unforgivable. This is known as the moment the show "jumped the shark." Sometimes it's just one goofy episode, like on "Happy Days" when Fonzie competed in a water skiing competition during which he had to pull off the ridiculous stunt of jumping over a shark (hence the phrase). Other times, it can be an entire plot shift that completely ruins the show. Remember when the working-class Conner family won the lottery and "Roseanne" became unwatchable?

Well this Fall many new shows started and there are a couple that were just plain disappointing.

1. "America's Next Top Model" is the show that it might have been done with a while ago. Its the same thing even season. The only thing that is keeping this show alive is the crazy stunts that Tiara does. But this season it may just be over done.

2. Nobody knows better than “Project Runway” that one day you’re in and the next day you’re out. Honestly, there aren't many shows that we've loved more; with its casts of outrageously talented designers tasked to create runway-worthy masterpieces, we’ve been diehard fans season after season. But when they kicked off Season 5 with a repeat challenge from Season 1, the lack of creativity was immediately apparent (in both the contestants as well as the show’s producers). And once the show rolled out the Saturn cars (a sponsor of the show) and asked the contestants to design something using car parts, the shark was officially jumped.

3. "Prison Break" has been the all time favorite for many but at the end of Season 2 they jumped the shark. Somehow Michael ended up in prison in Panama, Lincoln was the one on the outside, and this time Michael had to be broken out. Enough already! We’ve endured way too much; from the “deceased” Sara coming back to life to T-Bags ridiculous situations, this show needs to be locked up and the key thrown away.

Brenda Song: Miley Cyrus is a Good Diva.

As much as I love Brenda Song, I really despise Miley Cyrus. I think she's too much and I've seen her live on t.v. with the MTV music awards. She really wanted to win the new artist award and she made sure that Katy Perry and Taylor Swift knew of that. I'm glad she didn't win for it, because her head would have gotten bigger than it already is. Even with her many bad rumors about her myspace pictures, isn't that enough for everyone to know she is a bad role model? I know Brenda Song is just saying that, she's the one with the real heart od gold!

The recent series of possibly racy Miley Cyrus photos has led to a stern defense of the Hannah Montana actress by Joe Jonas, a tongue lashing by Bill O'Reilly and a spirited debate among readers of The Hollywood Gossip.

Chime in with your opinion on Cyrus and these pics NOW.

That's what Brenda Song, star of the Disney Channel's The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, has done. She had the following to say about this breaking scandal:

"Miley is probably the most charismatic and strong 15-year-old I know. She brushes everything off with a smile. She is truly a diva รข€" in a very good way!

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Heading to the Altar?





After the huge drama about the break up with Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston the drama as pretty much faded. Brad moved on to the beautiful Angelina Jolie and connected as one in moments. Now as parents to Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 2 and 3-month-old twins, Knox and Vivienne, the media have been waiting on a marriage.

"When we first met I already had a child," Jolie tells the new issue of Italian Vanity Fair. "We didn't live together and we adopted Zahara. Usually people fall in love and and everything revolves around people getting married. Children are an afterthought."

"We've done everything the wrong way around, but sooner or later the children will ask, you know, they watch films and ask questions," Jolie, 33, said. "They want to know why Shrek and Fiona got married and we haven't."

Pitt has said he won't marry Jolie until gay marriage is made legal. Personally, this is quite odd. Are they just together because they are tired of the couple and marriage thing or because they truly love each other? Well Angelina and Brad are now hitting that they might be heading to the altar. But do you think they will just do it for they children? Or is it because they truly want to get married?

Michael Jackson Steps Out for Skin Care


The King of Pop has finally stepped out of the cave! I don't think that anyone has seen him in awhile but here he is! The kind of disease he has is Vitiligo. Throughout the end of the 1980s, Michael Jackson's skin grew paler. I remember my brother telling me that the reason why he was white is because he has always wanted to be white. Now I know that it isn't true! haha I think it's a sad thing what Jackson has to go through. But that didn't stop Jackson from being the King of Pop. But I felt like that he grew kind of insane after that with the whole Home Alone kid and the baby over the balcony ordeal.
Jackson's skin was a medium-brown color for the entire duration of his youth, but starting in the early 1980s, his skin gradually grew paler. This change gained widespread media coverage, including rumors that Jackson was bleaching his skin.[4] In the mid-1980s, Jackson was diagnosed with vitiligo and lupus; the latter is in remission in Jackson's case, both illnesses make him sensitive to sunlight. The treatments he uses for his condition further lighten his skin tone, and, with the application of pancake makeup to even out blotches, he can appear very pale.[47] The structure of his face has changed as well; several surgeons have speculated that Jackson had undergone multiple nasal surgeries, a forehead lift, thinned lips and a cheekbone surgery.[48] Changes to his face were, in part, due to periods of significant weight loss.[13] Jackson became slimmer in the early 1980s because of a change in diet and a desire for "a dancer's body".[49] Witnesses reported that Jackson was often dizzy and speculated that he was suffering from anorexia nervosa; periods of weight loss would became a recurring problem for the singer later in life.[50] Some medical professionals have publicly stated their belief that the singer has body dysmorphic disorder, a psychological condition whereby the sufferer has no concept of how they are perceived by others.[51]

My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way’s "Umbrella Academy" Film


With news of My Chemical Romance frontman Gerard Way’s “Umbrella Academy” headed for development over at Universal, Splash Page looked back to a recent interview we did with the fanboy-turned-rock star-turned-comic writer on what he hopes happens with a potential “Umbrella Academy” film. The question that comes to mind, Way ready?

“It’s a pretty recent development,” explained Way from an interview from the floor of this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. “Mike Richardson, who runs Dark Horse and owns it, just signed a three picture deal with Universal because he has a great relationship with them from ‘Hellboy,’ and the first film that he wanted to get made – that they wanted to option – was ‘Umbrella Academy.’”

For those of you in need of a refresher course, Way describes “Umbrella Academy” as, “A post-modern superhero story – not a ’superhero comic.’ It’s the story of seven extraordinary individuals adopted and raised by a closet space alien [named Sir Reginald Hargreeves] – poorly – to save the world from nobody knows what.”

Yet as excited as Way is for an “Umbrella Academy” film, the unabashed comic geek who was once an intern at DC Comics and graduated from New York’s School of Visual Arts with a degree in cartooning, is quick to say that he hopes that a few more volumes of “Umbrella Academy” can hit shelves before a film hits theaters.

“You know how it goes, you wanna see it happen so you get really excited, but you gotta kinda be patient,” said Way. “By the time the film comes out, I think we’ll be on series four [of 'Umbrella Academy'] which I think is important. I think if a movie came out right now, we only have one series under our belt, and it’s not enough mythology out there.”

As far as the aforementioned “mythology” Way mentions, it could mean scenes that he wanted to work into “Umbrella Academy” stories but couldn’t due to the limited amount of space on a monthly comic.
