It looks like some things may never change for the hotel heiress, Paris Hilton. Late Friday night, Hilton was arrested in Las Vegas for the possession of a controlled substance, after police discovered cocaine in her purse.
The 29-year-old was in a vehicle pulled over on Las Vegas Boulevard for a routine traffic stop. It was reported the officers at the scene suspected marijuana smoke to be coming from the vehicle. The Hollywood socialite was not driving the vehicle. The stop took place outside the Wynn Hotel where Hilton’s flavor of the month, Cy Waits, manages a nightclub.
After the discovery of the cocaine in Paris’s purse, she was detained in the Clark County Detention Center early Saturday, and was later released. The male driver of the vehicle was arrested on DUI drug charges. It certainly has been an eventful summer for Hilton, as Friday’s arrest was the third drug-related incident she has been involved in throughout the course of the summer, including her travels in Europe.
For now, Paris is playing the “it wasn’t my cocaine” card, and for all of her “supporters” she tweeted, “I’m so thankful to all my fans for all the love and support you are giving me. Thank you all. Love you so much. Love Paris xoxo.” And who could imagine the parents, Rick and Kathy Hilton, being upset over this? Apparently, after all the drama, Paris’s parents are “flipping out” and have expressed their dislike for her new man. Good luck with this one Paris, but in raw form it’s just a pattern.
The ultimate infidelity scandal has reached the inevitable. Tiger Woods and his supermodel wife, Elin Nordegren, finalized their divorce on Monday, according to a joint statement from the ex-couple’s attorneys.
It was last Thanksgiving when the allegations of Wood’s serial infidelities surfaced. The statement said, “We are sad that our marriage is over and we wish each other the very best for the future,” and continued, “While we are no longer married, we are the parents of two wonderful children and their happiness has been, and will always be, of paramount importance to both of us.”
The judgment of the Woods divorce, was issued in Bay County, Florida has offered “shared parenting of their two children,” according to the attorneys. During this transition into Splitsville, the former pair ask for privacy while adjusting “to a new family situation.”
On Monday, Nordegren cited their marriage as “irretrivably broken” as the reason for divorce in the dissolution of marriage petition. Sounds about right. On July 3, a settlement was agreed upon including the shared parenting responsibilities. Florida offers a 20-day delay period before a final judgment, which the couple chose to waive. Additionally, Elin has submitted the request to have her name restored to Elin Maria Pernilla Nordegren.
Attorneys for Tiger and Elin have refused to further comment on anything other than what the joint statement says. When asked about a prenuptial agreement or the settled agreement, Woods’ agent, Mark Steinberg also declined to comment, “We’re not commenting beyond what was in the release.”
The passing of Martin Short’s wife, Nancy Dolman, was relatively soon as she was just 58-years-old. However, her death was from natural causes, confirmed by the chief coroner.
Los Angeles County Coroner Chief, Craig Harvey, explained, “Nancy Doman was under the care of a private physician for a natural disease,” telling PEOPLE, “There will be no coroner involvement.” Back in 2007, it was reported Dolman had been battling cancer, but a publicist for Short would not comment on her cause of death.
A 911 call was made from Martin Short’s home on Saturday, and his wife had passed away. The couple were married for 30 years and have three children together, Katherine, 26; Oliver, 24; and Henry, 21.
Just two weeks after the American Idol winner, Fantasia Barrino, was hospitalized for an overdose of aspirin and sleep aid, the singer explains it wasn’t an accident. She wanted it to be over.
Barrino told VH1 in a new Behind the Music interview, “I didn’t have any fight in me. I didn’t care about anything. I just wanted out.” The interview will air Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the same day as the release of her latest album Back to Me. Fantasia explains, “At that moment, I wanted out. I wanted it to be over with — all of it, all of that ****.”
The troubled mom admitted, “I just sat in the closet and looked at the mirror and took all the pills in the bottle. I wanted to go to sleep and just be at peace. I knew exactly what I was doing. You can’t accidentally take a whole bottle of pills.”
Fantasia was found lying on the floor in her room by her manager, Brian Dickens. Upon his arrival, Dickens says, “Her emotions were extremely low. She’d been crying all day. Fantasia was just numb,” adding, “Fantasia texted me, saying ‘I love you.’ I wrote back, ‘I love you more.’ Then it hit me.”
Dickens replied to Barrino, “I wrote, ‘You better not do anything or think about doing anything stupid.’ And I left it at that. About ten minutes later, Fantasia texted me back, and she said, ‘Already did.’ I went to Fantasia’s room and saw her on the floor, and my heart just dropped.”
What could have possibly made this singing talent want to end her life? “I was tired of people doing me wrong, constantly, over and over again, dealing with my family — my father, dealing with men and their **** … I was tired,” Barrino says. “My head was hurting me. I was over it.”
According to recent reports, Oscar-winning actress Sandra Bullock has been granted a permanent three-year restraining order against a 41-year old man who has a history of stalking her. How can a ‘permanent restraining order’ be good for only three-years? Hmm…Thomas James Weldon has been ordered to stay away from Bullock as well as her son Louis and Jesse James’ three children, Chandler, Sunny, and Jesse Jr., and refrain from full contact for the next three years.
The obsessed fan was initially banned back in 2003 after complaints about a harassment were made. Unfortunately the restraining order that was issued expired last year…prompting Bullock to issue another keep-away. Weldon has been stalking The Blind Side star for the past seven years, and has been labeled as schizophrenic by Bullock’s attorney. “It’s obvious that this fixation on her has not changed despite seven years in the hospital in Tennessee,” Bullock’s attorney, Ed McPherson, said.
