Pop Culture Round Up – January 31, 2011

We have almost made it through the first month of the year and so how much has happened. Charlie Sheen is in rehab, but David Arquette just came out, of rehab that is. And Lindsay Lohan – where is she? As it stands right now, Lindsay is both out of rehab and jail for right now. However, she has another court hearing on February 25th, so anything can happen. But, you may be glad to know that TMZ is reporting that Lindsay is glad Charlie has gone to rehab because she is worried about him. Worried about him? Wow, what … Continue reading

Sean Penn and Robin Wright Back Together Again… and Again

Here they go again. Forget about “Milk,” Sean Penn would have been a huge hit in “Groundhog Day.” Judging by his recent behavior, the leading role wouldn’t have been a stretch (by any means) for the character actor. Just ask his wife Robin Wright Penn, who must be suffering from major whiplash at this point. According to reports, last week Penn pulled a Penn and filed a request to dismiss his legal separation case-—again. This is the second time in less than two years that the actor has rescinded divorce papers. The 48-year-old actor served his 43-year-old wife with walking … Continue reading

Bad Dads? You Decide

I know a dad who pays more money for airlines tickets to see his girlfriend than he does in child support. He also willingly shells out more cash to wine and dine said girlfriend in the course of three days than he does to feed his own child in an entire month. That’s on top of repeatedly placing the child in dangerous situations and consistently ignoring the child. So, does this make the guy a bad dad? He certainly doesn’t think so, and I would venture to guess that fellow fathers Jon Gosselin and Mel Gibson would agree. The aforementioned … Continue reading

Oops, he did it again! Two times may be the charm for Sean Penn, who seems intent on getting rid of his wife Robin Wright Penn.

Hollywood Couples News—Shocking and Not So Shocking

SHOCKING Not only shocking for a Hollywood couple, but for warring couples in general. Sean Penn and Robin Wright Penn have apparently decided to bury the hatchet and actually work on their marriage instead of throwing it away. Court documents show that the superstar pair just put the brakes on their divorce proceedings. According to TV’s “Extra,” a court clerk dismissed the couple’s divorce petition at their request earlier this week. Madonna’s ex-husband initially filed for divorce from Wright Penn on December 7, 2007 after 11 years of marriage but his petition was later dismissed. Then, three days later, Wright … Continue reading

Pink and Carey Separate and Idol News

How many times have Michele and I started a blog with “Well, they said it wouldn’t last…and it didn’t!” This time, I am talking about motocross racer Carey Hart and his soon to be ex-wife Pink. The couple has decided to end their union after a mere two years. The singer and the racer met at the 2001 X Games in Las Vegas. She proposed to him four years later while the couple was at a race in Mammoth Lakes, California. A January 7, 2006 wedding followed in Costa Rica. But, now the good times are over. Today, Pink’s rep … Continue reading

Ringing in the New Year at a Hotel

Where do you typically celebrate New Year’s Eve? On your couch? A friend’s house? Or, in the middle of Times Square? A new study shows that more and more Americans are trading in their fuzzy slippers and hot chocolate for a New Year’s Eve night out… at a hotel. And the city where the most New Year’s revelers hit hotels is none other than Las Vegas. This year Sin City is hosting a slew of celebrity studded parties where common folks can bid farewell to 2007. If you plan to make the trip you might want to leave now because … Continue reading

Another DUI Arrest and Another Celebrity Divorce

Having learned nothing from Kiefer Sutherland, Lindsay Lohan, Rebecca De Mornay, or Mickey Rourke, actress Mischa Barton was arrested this weekend on DUI charges. After straddling two lanes and failing to signal when turning, the 21 year old was pulled over by sheriff’s deputies on La Cienega Boulevard at 2:45 a.m. The deputies found Mischa had been drinking and was in possession of marijuana. Oh yeah, and just like Britney, Mischa was driving without a driver’s license too, according to a statement released by Sgt. John Hocking of the sheriff’s department. Mischa, perhaps best known for appearing on the teen … Continue reading
