Stars Come Out For American Idol Finale: Antonio Sabato Jr and daughter Mina

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 21 May 2009 22:05:00 GMT

Antonio Sabato Jr. gave daughter Mina a lift on the red carpet at the American Idol finale last night. I hate to say this about a dad hanging out with his little girl, but Antonio is looking pretty hot. No wonder, since he got his start as a Calvin Klein underwear model. (Thank you, Wikipedia.)

It looks like it may have been a Melrose Place reunion there at the show, as Antonio appeared opposite Heather Locklear on the show back in the '90's. (Thank you, IMDB.) I wonder if he can convince Heather to reprise her role on MP. Then, she can convince Antonio to make an appearance in his Calvins. It would be a win-win situation.

Stars Come Out For American Idol Finale: Heather Locklear and Daughter Ava

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 21 May 2009 21:35:00 GMT

Heather Locklear and daughter Ava, 11, hit the red carpet of the American Idol finale last night. Ava is looking just like her mom these days. I wonder if they were rooting for Kris or Adam?

I'm a little ticked with Heather for turning down the role in the revamped Melrose Place that's coming to the CW in the fall. Sure Laura Leighton (Sydney) and Thomas Calabro (Dr. Michael Mancini) will be returning, but MP without Amanda Woodward? That would be like American Idol without Simon.

Ashlee Simpson - Bronx Comes First

trix — Wed, 11 Mar 2009 19:03:00 GMT

Ashlee Simpson's new gig in Melrose Place is good for her, for a couple of reasons, they are good reasons too.

She took the job so she can be close to her baby boy. She wants something stable and close to home so she won't have to travel away from home.

A source told people magazine, "She was specifically looking for something in television as her next step, that filmed in Los Angeles, so she wouldn't have to be away from Bronx. Music is still a passion but [Ashlee] felt this was the best thing for her and her family at this point in her life. She's really excited about Melrose Place."

Look at that, another young mom stepping up and being responsible, that's what we like to see.

Jail Time For Heather Locklear?

Sassy Smith — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 13:08:00 GMT

Actress Heather Locklear was arrested on September 27 for suspicion of driving under the influence in Montecito. A photog called 911 saying that Locklear was "driving erratically." She's now been formally charged by the Santa Barbara Police Department for driving under the influence of drugs. The drugs were prescription meds.

The incident occurred two months after the 47-year-old completed four weeks of treatment for anxiety and depression. She could, if convicted, face up to six months in jail.

Senior Deputy District Attorney Lee Carter said, "Lab tests showed she had no alcohol in her system and no illegal narcotics of any kind." No word on what specific medications were taken or what amounts.

Carter added, "We believe that the prescriptions she was taking could have impaired her ability to drive a motor vehicle safely."

Heather's arraignment is slated for January 26 in Santa Barbara Superior Court.

I like her - she's one of the few celebrities that has stayed under the radar without much incident. I hope her daughter Ava is okay through all of this!

Heather Locklear Was Arrested

Heather Locklear DUI: Cop Takes Pics With Personal Cell Phone

Sassy Smith — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 11:09:00 GMT

Heather Locklear was pulled over last weekend for suspicion of DUI - it's since been determined that she was not drinking but seemed "disoriented" and believed to be under the influence of some sort of controlled substance. And while it's probably procedure in some cases for officers to have video and/or photos of arrests (with a dash-cam for instance), it's probably not legit for one of the arresting officers to be taking photos with a personal cell phone. Something smells bad....

According to TMZ (and the photo clearly shows), the CHP officer is snapping pics of Locklear with a cell phone before she gets handcuffed. And it could be legit had it been a department issued phone but it's not - it's the personal cell phone of the police officer.

Santa Barbara officials claim that the officer was taking photos to document the scene - for evidence purposes and also to protect the officers in the event that Locklear claims inpropriety.

Officials say that the video and photos will be turned over to the D.A's office as evidence and nothing improper was done. However, TMZ spoke with several CHP officers who say that cops should not be using their personal cell phones to snap pics especially when a celebrity is involved.

Seems fishy to me - sure, if it was a CHP issued camera, then that would be one thing, but photos taken with an officer's personal phone - not buying that it's a legit procedure!

Courtney Thorne-Smith-Have Bags, Will Travel

Courtney Thorne-Smith is shopping again. She got out of the house with her 7 month old Jake and a friend.

How long do you think it took her to get out the door? I have two boys and it takes a varied amount of time to get them to listen and out the door. If I get them dressed it's 15 min.. If they get themselves dressed it can take an hour.

He's a cutie and is pretty darn alert, he's probably looking at something bright and shiny, like his reflection in the glass windows. He's probably thinking, hey look at that cu-ti-pie over there, oh wait I thinks that's me.

He looks like he's a handful. I know my boys are, but they are so fun.

Do you think they went to Melrose too?

Heather Locklear - Tired, Pale & Skinny

Sassy Smith — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 15:09:00 GMT

Heather Locklear recently requested an in-depth evaluation of her meds and she voluntarily checked herself into a treatment facility for anxiety and depression. An onlooker who saw the celebrity mom, said that Locklear was dressed casually in sweats and a tee and although, "even with no makeup she was beautiful," they noted she looked "tired, pale and very skinny." However, the 46-year-old actress had her spirits lifted - she was paid a visit from a very sexy man....

....actor, Jack Wagner, 48, stopped by the Arizona facility, to see his lady love. The couple hadn't seen each other since June 19, and they spent a few hours together on Sunday, having lunch and chatting.

A source said, "He looked like he was taking care of her. It was very sweet. He made her laugh."

Besides boyfriend Jack, Heather's ex-husband, Richie Sambora has said he will stand by the mom of his daughter, Ava.

A friend said, "Heather has a few really close, trustworthy friends who are very protective and are pulling for her. What she's doing is so brave. Are some days tougher than others? Yes. But it will all be worth it when she's back to being able to really feel the joy in every day."

When will Heather be released? "Once she's feeling better," says the friend, "She'll come home."

I'm rooting for Heather - and no wonder the poor woman is anxious and depressed - when your good friend (and husband at the time) get a little too close for comfort, well, that's enough to make anyone sad! Hopefully Richie redeems himself by supporting her.

Heather Locklear's Shrink Called 911

TMZ is reporting that Heather Locklear's psychiatrist is the one who called 911 on Saturday night, prompting a visit to her home by police and emergency crews.

The shrink reportedly spoke with Locklear on Saturday night and became alarmed because she was "upset" and feared she may OD on her depression medication. A call was made and dispatch noted it as a "suicide attempt" but emergency personnel who arrived at Locklear's Thousand Oaks home found her to be fine.

In other words, everybody keep moving - there's nothing to see here.

In the mini baby boom in Hollywood earlier this month, Courtney Thorne-Smith and husband Roger Fishman had a baby boy, and boy oh boy they are in love with him.

So Christina Didn't Pop Yet, So What? Nicole Sure Did!

Nicole Richie and her new baby - already named! - are doing great, says new dad Joel Madden.

From People.com:

"We are very blessed she's healthy and beautiful and so good already," Madden told PEOPLE on Saturday. "We are very happy."

Richie, 26, and Madden, 28, welcomed 6-lb., 7-oz Harlow Winter Kate Madden on Friday, the couple's rep at Handprint Entertainment says, and the Hollywood congratulations started flowing.

"It's just amazing. I'm so excited," Richie's friend, The Hills star Lauren Conrad, told PEOPLE while at the grand opening for Jimmy Choo's Flagship store in Beverly Hills. "I want to see the baby! I bet it's beautiful."

So what if Xtina's brith announcement turned out to be false? This one is pretty good on its own.

Housework is Hazardous: Brad Pitt

Did I mention we were one of the FIRST blogs to have the scoop on these births? No? WELL WE WERE.

Oh and Brad Pitt's home state of Missouri loves their man. So much so, his home town is hoping to build a museum in his honour. His pals Don Cheadle and mouthy George Clooney had laughs about the news:

Don: “I would run tours. I would allow myself to be ensconced in wax. I would do whatever it takes to see that the Brad Pitt museum is a 100% success!”

George: “I’d pay a good $4.50 to go to that museum!”

Did EVERY Celebrity Give Birth This Week? Add This One To The List...

HerBadMother — Sat, 12 Jan 2008 02:01:00 GMT

So, the week is barely up, and we're already at bonanza capacity with celebrity births. Christina! Nicole! And - in case you don't follow the D-list - David Alan Grier and his wife had a baby, too, and so did Courtney Thorne Smith. And - note that we very nearly missed this one, what with all the excitement of Christina! Nicole! David Alan Grier! - Toni Collette.

Toni gave birth to daughter Sage Florence on Wednesday in her hometown of Sydney, Australia. This is the first child for Collette, 35, and her husband of four years, musician Dave Galafassi.

Congrats, Toni and Dave. Don't be too offended that nobody paid any attention.

Courtney Thorne Smith Gives Birth!

Sassy Smith — Fri, 11 Jan 2008 23:42:00 GMT

Holy celebrity baby boom Batman! Actress and According To Jim star Courtney Thorne Smith welcomed a 6 lb. 13.oz son in L.A. today. She named him Jacob 'Jake' Emerson Fishman. He is the first child for Courtney and her hubby, Roger Fishman. The couple married January 1, 2007.

An insider said:

“They were surprised and of course delighted when Jake arrived," the source says. "She had selected the name Maya in the event she was greeted by a girl baby instead of a boy. Courtney’s son’s middle name Emerson is also her father’s name.

“She is happily breastfeeding at the moment and bounced back so fast from her delivery ordeal that she has been given the ‘all clear’ to leave the hospital tonight if she wants.

“Everything happened so quickly that Courtney’s mom – who had flown in for the birth weeks ago – had already flown back home and wasn’t able to arrive in time.”

Congrats to the happy parents!

Marcia Cross Shares Naked Joy

Whit Honea — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 20:35:00 GMT

Desperate Housewife Marcia Cross shares naked, as in open, stark and unmistakable, joy. I looked in a thesaurus. The NUDITY stuff is here. The joy is in this post.

Isn't that sweet?

These are the words of Marcia Cross, "I'm deliriously happy! It's scary to be this happy. Oh my god, I mean life is precarious, so I just value every day and every gift."

She was talking about her twin daughters Eden and Savannah, and to a lesser extent her husband Tom Mahoney.

The family is getting ready to celebrate their first Christmas together and they are really looking forward to it. When asked about their plans Marcia responded, "We just don't know yet. It's all new. It's our first Christmas together as a family, and it's probably going to be sort of quiet. I want to go out and take a hike in the woods and have kind of an outdoorsy day. Just all kids, all day. It's just fun."

Felicity Huffman Wants a Few "Desperate" Kids to Die

Karen — Mon, 17 Dec 2007 15:04:00 GMT

When we last left Wisteria Lane, a cyclone had ripped through the tiny street and Lynette Scavo was huddled in a tub with neighbour Karen McCluskey after chasing a stupid cat. It was true Desperate Housewives ridiculousness, and fans of the show are waiting patiently while the next epidsode isn't set to air until after Christmas.

When Lynette emerged from the wreckage, the home that housed her husband and kids had fallen and she has no idea if her family is alive.

Actress Felicity Huffman, who plays Lynnette, hopes not, as she told USA Today that she would like "some of Lynette's kids to die."

"There's such anticipation that all of Lynette's family won't make it back." But "they're all lovely little actors."

Whit called it first: these Desperate Housewives need to get back to work and stop acting crazy!

What's up with the cast of Desperate Housewives? They get a couple of weeks off thanks to the writer's strike and they just go crazy. Maybe they really are desperate.

A naked Marcia Cross in all of her untrimmed glory was spread all over the internet.

Tony Parker cheated on Eva Longoria. Then he didn't. We're thinking he did.

Teri Hatcher got sued. Then she turned about 7 years younger than she looks.

David Hans Schmidt, Man Who Found Marcia Cross Naked Photos, Is Dead

sweatpantsmom — Sat, 15 Dec 2007 20:35:00 GMT

Here's an interesting addendum to the Marcia Cross naked pictures scandal that's on fire right now: David Hans Schmidt, the man who originally tried to sell the photos, committed suicide in September. Also known as 'The Sultan of Sleaze,' Schmidt was found dead in his Arizona home while under house arrest in the extortion scandal involving Tom Cruise. In that case Schmidt was found guilty of attempting to extort $1 million from Cruise for photos that were stolen from the actor's lavish Italian wedding to Katie Holmes.

Schmidt made a living scouring celebrity refuse bins for incriminating celebrity castoffs. In addition to the Cross photos, some of his other 'finds' included explicit photographs he claimed to have found in Jamie Foxx' garbage and the discovery of Paris Hilton's sex diaries in an abandoned storage locker.

Desperate and Exposed: Marcia Cross Naked Photos Surface

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 14 Dec 2007 23:15:00 GMT

**UPDATE: David Hans Schmidt, the man who found and tried to sell the photos, committed suicide. Read about this bizarre twist to the story.

It's been an exciting week for a couple of the housewives on Wisteria Lane, and I'm not talking about on the set. First it's revealed that Eva Longoria's husband Tony Parker cheated with a French model, and now nude pictures of fellow Desperate Housewives star Marcia Cross have surfaced on the internet.

The pictures were taken by Cross' husband Tom Mahoney in an outdoor shower over a year ago and were apparently discovered in their trash after they had hired a firm to take it away. That firm, who is now being represented by Phoenix-based agent David Hans Schmidt, discovered over 200 personal photos when they arrived at the local dump and are now trying to sell them to the highest bidder. Schmidt told the New York Daily News newspaper: "There are some pictures of her showering outside. She looks absolutely gorgeous. And yes, the carpet does match the curtains."

Schmidt attempted to defend his and his client's sleazy actions by adding, "The pictures were not stolen. When you throw something away, you forfeit that property. We recognize the copyright issue, but US copyright law stops at the border. I’m not looking to mortify Ms. Cross, I just want the most money for my client."

Of course, I can't post them here because this is a family website (don't laugh) but they can be easily found by a Google search or a visit to Schmidt's snake hole.

Heather Locklear and Ava Hit the Beach

Heather Locklear spent some time with her daughter, Ava, and that guy from Melrose, Jack Wagner, at the beach. No, Wagner is not in the picture, but he was there.

I really want to make a Melrose Place joke, but alas, I never watched it. Pretend I said something funny, like you do with all the other posts.
