Levi Johnston Looking for Fame in GQby Elizabeth Fairview | July 13th, 2009 Levi Johnston is still trying to cash in on those 15 minutes. (GQ Images) With the shocking news that Sarah Palin is throwing in the Governor towel, the father of her new grandson, Levi Johnston is again crawling from the woodwork. In all his monotone glory, a bland Johnston appeared on the Today Show this morning to let everyone know that he thinks Palin quit so that she could take advantage of the book deals and rea
Laila Ali is the most refined and most non-criminal name on this list, but that doesn’t make her any less dangerous. Considered by many to be the greatest female boxer to ever enter the ring, Ali boasts a flawless 24-0 record with 21 wins coming by way of knock out.
Known for her disciplined and dogged style, Ali is devastating in the ring, with a talent for brutal combinations. She began her career in 1999 with a first-round knock out and ticked off another 8 wins leading up to a high-profile bout between her and Jackie Frazier, daughter of famous Muhammed Ali rival Joe Frazier. It was a tough bout, but Ali cemented her reputation in a win by decision after 8 rounds.
In the course of her career, Ali has earned a permanent scar from a brawl with Valerie Mahfood. She also participated in what is often considered the most violent women’s boxing match ever when she defeated Erin Toughill in a fist-pounding 2005 grudge match.
Lately, Ali has taken a break from the ring as she appeared on Dancing With the Stars in 2007 (placing 3rd) and gave birth to a son in August, 2008. But if she wants to retain her reputation as the toughest woman on Earth, at some point she’ll have to fight Ann Wolfe. Wolfe, who is possibly the hardest hitter in women’s boxing, has accused Ali of making excuses to avoid fighting her.
But until she’s defeated, Ali is still one dangerous knock out.

Mischa Barton was hospitalized on a 5150 on Wednesday and she is being kept beyond the 72 hour hold to ensure her safety. Mischa is still considered at risk of hurting herself. For the last few months there have been various reports of Mischa engaging in extreme partying and other at risk behavior. It was reported that Mischa was placed on the hold after she went on a coke binge for 3 days and then alarmed friends who believed that she was suicidal. There are several rumors that Mischa is having financial difficulties and is trying to party hard to forget her problems. I could see this being true, because everything seems to have went bad since she left the (check coming in everyweek sitcom) ’The OC’. Sure, its cancelled now, but her leaving the show pretty much led to that, right? I hope that she is going to be okay and that she gets the help that she needs so that she doesn”t continue down that destructive road Hasbeen TVLand
