Josh Brent Arrested For DUI Manslaughter, Jerry Brown Killed in Car Crash

Posted on December 9, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Dallas Cowboys defensive lineman Josh Brent is facing a manslaughter charge after a one-vehicle accident that killed linebacker Jerry Brown, a member of the team’s practice squad. Irving, Tex., police spokesman John Argumaniz said the crash happened at 2:20 a.m. Saturday, just hours before Brent was to fly with the team to Cincinnati to face the Bengals. The 25-year-old Jerry Brown – a practice-squad linebacker who also was Brent’s teammate for three seasons at the University of Illinois – was pronounced dead at a hospital. “I am devastated and filled with grief,” Josh Brent said in a statement. “Filled with grief for the loss of my close friend and teammate, Jerry Brown. I am also grief-stricken for his family, friends and all who were blessed enough to have known him.” “I will live with this horrific and tragic loss every day for the rest of my life,” he added. “My prayers are with his family, our teammates and his friends at this time.” It marked the second tragedy in as many weekends for the NFL. Last Saturday, Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Jovan Belcher fatally shot his girlfriend before killing himself in front of his coach and general manager. “We are deeply saddened by the news of this accident and the passing of Jerry Brown,” Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said in a statement yesterday. “At this time, our hearts and prayers and deepest sympathies are with the members of Jerry’s family and all of those who knew him and loved him.”

In it, College Humor’s amazingly auto-tuned, Chad Kroeger-knockoff protagonist documents life through the filtered lens of a guy who simply can’t help himself. Instagram’s 100 million-plus users will no doubt appreciate this tribute to the near-infinite amounts of clouds, meals, pets and “selfies” posted around the clock.

LeAnn Rimes Slams Brandi Glanville, Denies Anorexia and Addiction to Laxatives

Posted on December 9, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

LeAnn Rimes is firing back at Brandi Glanville’s comments that she is addicted to laxatives and is calling The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star out for calling her out publicly. Last week, Eddie Cibrian’s ex-wife Glanville accused LeAnn, who Cibrian infamously left her for, of being a terrible stepmother to Brandi and Eddie’s two young sons. Specifically, Brandi claimed LeAnn carelessly let one of the boys eat one of her laxatives, making him sick, and that Rimes pops pills 24/7 due to a “serious eating disorder.” Cibrian stood up for his wife and called out Glanville in the aftermath of that outburst, saying she had every chance to discuss this privately but did not do so. Now LeAnn, who has battled anorexia rumors in the past and recently checked into rehab for stress and anxiety issues, is slamming Brandi’s “outlandish allegations.” Rimes says she has no diseases or addictions, and while she’s tried to remain silent in the past out of respect for their families, she’s reached her threshold of “harassment.” LeAnn tells TMZ : “It’s a shame to have one party constantly spreading lies. I know this drama is exactly what she wants to create. But Eddie and I hope for everyone’s sake, this changes.” The tension between the pair is not new. Their Twitter feuds have been going on as long as Rimes and Cibrian have been married, and have escalated lately. Brandi Glanville has yet to respond … give it a few minutes.

Brooke Mueller: I’m No Crackhead, Just an Exhausted, Jewelry-Making Fiend!

Posted on December 9, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Friday’s apparent Brooke Mueller overdose was nothing of the sort, Charlie Sheen’s ex-wife says … she was just exhausted from a jewelry-making bonanza. Seriously. Brooke was found unresponsive at 11 a.m. that day and her assistant called 911; Mueller was rushed to a nearby hospital and discharged a few hours later. The assistant mentioned Brooke Mueller’s history of drug abuse when she was talking to the 911 operator, but later said, “I made a mistake … I overreacted.” Did she? Understandably, friends and family members, including her mother, have been very worried about Brooke’s drug abuse for the past couple of weeks. One can understand why they’d be skeptical of her explanation – that she’d been making jewelry nonstop for the past several days and passed out due to exhaustion. The 35-year-old’s jewelry-making binge also explains the nasty, sketchy, charred-looking black marks all over her hands (above), according to Brooke. It’s just black spray paint, which she uses to make the pieces. Why she didn’t wash her hands before heading out in public looking spaced out (above), we can’t say, but Mueller says she’s been sober for months now. For some reason, few seem to fully take her word for that . You believe Brooke Mueller’s side of the story? Yes, cut her some slack! No, she’s totes on crack! View Poll »

Kate Middleton Nurse Suicide: Jacintha Saldanha Photo Released, Investigation Underway

Posted on December 9, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The first photo of Jacintha Saldanha, the nurse who committed suicide after falling for a prank call involving Kate Middleton, has been released by Scotland Yard. Saldanha passed away hours after being duped by the Kate Middleton prank call , in which two Australian DJ’s pretended to be Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Charles. Scotland Yard sent out the haunting snap-shot of Saldanha, the nurse on-call at King Edward VII Hospital in London, and whose demise is now under investigation. The 46-year-old’s death is currently listed as “unexplained.” An autopsy will be held next week, according to authorities. Saldanha’s family said in a statement: “We are deeply saddened by the loss of our beloved Jacintha. We would ask that the media respect out privacy at this difficult time.” The Australian radio station behind the call also issued a statement Saturday, stating it did nothing wrong and there was no way to have foreseen the tragic outcome. The two DJ’s have suspended themselves from the air. Police in London have contacted their Australian counterparts about speaking with the two radio personalities, Mel Greig and Michael Christian, about the case. While the station claims it did nothing wrong, Greig and Christian’s call, which helped reveal details about the Duchess of Cambridge’s health, was certainly marginal. Nick Kaldas, deputy commissioner for New South Wales Police said: “It hasn’t been indicated to us that an offense has occurred and they have not actually asked for anything yet. “They’ve simply touched base, let us know of their interest and they will get back to us if they actually want something done. Nothing has been requested of us yet.” Kate Middleton Prank Call “As our colleagues in London continue to examine events leading up to the death of Jacintha Saldanha, we will be providing them with whatever assistance is required.” For what it’s worth, the DJs have so far remained tight-lipped after the incident, but are receiving “intensive psychological counseling” to deal with the tragedy. A spokeswoman said that Australian the pair would be speaking with the media, but when would depend on their state of mind, which was described as “fragile.”
