Dennis Rodman Enters Rehab for Alcohol Abuse

Dennis Rodman has checked into rehab. The former NBA All-Star, who totally lost his $hit during an interview with CNN this month in concert with his trip to North Korea , has admitted he has a drinking problem. The five-time NBA champion has come under heavy scrutiny for celebrating the 31st birthday of dictator Kim Jong-un by playing in an exhibition basketball game in North Korea along with a number of ex-professional ballers. Rodman was asked by Chris Cuomo about the adventure a few weeks ago, flipped out over questions regarding that nation’s human rights violations and later apologized , saying he was wasted at the time. “What was potentially a historic and monumental event turned into a nightmare for everyone concerned,” Rodman’s agent Darren Prince told USA Today in a statement, adding: “Dennis Rodman came back from North Korea in pretty rough shape emotionally. The pressure that was put on him to be a combination ‘super human’ political figure and ‘fixer’ got the better of him. He is embarrassed, saddened and remorseful for the anger and hurt his words have caused.” Rodman appeared on Season 3 of Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew, but – shockingly – that rehab visit didn’t change his behavior. Let’s hope he takes his latest one a bit more seriously.

Alyssa Campanella Because She Is Damn Fine!

Here’s former Miss USA and Miss Nevada Alyssa Campanella at the Finals Pageant to crown the new Miss Nevada USA and Miss Nevada Teen USA for 2014. I’m not sure who won, because as a blogger, my reporter skills are pretty much limited to three minutes of Google searching before I get bored, but whoever it was, I bet they aren’t nearly as hot Alyssa here. I know there are probably rules against repeats, but I think it’s worth making an exception this time. » view all 13 photos Photos: Fameflynet , WENN.com

Rob Kardashian: Does He Have a Secret Son?

With Kim Kardashian garnering all the parental family headlines this year, a new report suggests that this reality star may have something in common with her brother. Yes, readers, Rob Kardashian could be a father! During a recent gathering, Star Magazine sources say Rob told friends that a teddy bear sitting on his best was “for his son.” And this isn’t the first time Rob has made such a reference. In May, he deleted the following message on Instagram, but not before it got burned in to the Internet forever: “Shout to to God … Shout out Mom, shout out to my son’s mom cuz she been holding me down since high school n shout out to my son Robert the Third. lol” The tabloid says “no one” in the family will discuss the possibility that Rob may have a child, but that these rumors have been around for awhile. The son would be the result of a fling with a woman in Miami four years ago and, if he exists, would make Rob the THIRD Kardashian member to have a kid out of wedlock (joining Kim and Kourtney Kardashian ). Kris Jenner, meanwhile, has supposedly tried to keep the chatter at bay. “Any time it’s even mentioned, Kris changes the subject,” alleges a family insider. “For whatever reason, Kris is fearful that Rob being a father could hurt the [Kardashian] brand.”

Knockout Game Player Charged With Hate Crime, Sparks Racial Debate

Conrad Barrett was arrested Thursday and charged under federal hate crimes law, which defines a hate crime as “motivated by enmity or animus against a protected class.” The FBI also lists anti-white crimes as hate crimes, but the fact that he was charged for playing the “knockout game” and assaulting a black man has sparked controversy. Conrad Alvin Barrett Arrested For Knockout Game The knockout game , in which an assailant tries to knock out a random bystander with a single punch, has garnered national attention in recent months. It is unclear whether the “game” has become more popular or whether the Internet has simply allowed for isolated incidents to be broadcast more widely. The majority of the reported knockout game incidents, however, have involved black men targeting white victims and none triggered federal involvement. The fact that the Justice Department elected to step in now, when a black man was the victim, has critics saying the government is using the hate-crime statute unevenly. Donald Green, a political scientist at Columbia University in New York, says: “The reason why you have black perpetrators and white victims being prosecuted asymmetrically hinges on what evidence there is about why they’re doing what they’re doing.” “If suspects call the victim racial names, and one of the other witnesses testifies to that effect, it would be prosecutable as a hate crime.” That last part could be the key here. According to the federal affidavit, the government appears to be preparing a case along those lines in Texas. Federal prosecutors say Barrett planned the November 24 attack, which he filmed with his cellphone. He approached “G.C.”, an elderly black man. “How’s it going, man?” Barrett said, then punched the stunned victim so brutally hard that G.C.’s jaw was broken in two places and he lost three teeth. Barrett then allegedly cried “knockout!” and ran. He was caught after he told the tale at a bar, where an off-duty cop was present. Federal prosecutors argue that the attack was motivated by racial animus. Police found videos in which Barrett allegedly used racial epithets and at one point said that black people “haven’t fully experienced the blessing of evolution.” In another video from the day of the assault uncovered in the investigation, Barrett says, “If I were to hit a black person, would this be nationally televised?” A single hate crime charge carries a maximum of 10 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine. Still, some conservative bloggers see racial hypocrisy at work. “This case shows how warped law enforcement has gotten as a result of hate crime legislation,” writes Rick Moran on the American Thinker blog. “No matter who is in charge, the law will always be selectively enforced. It makes a mockery of the notion of equal justice under the law.” Hate crime charges have been brought by New York State this year against one black suspect accused of playing the knockout game (a Jewish man was hurt). For his part, Jack Levin, a criminologist at Northeastern University in Boston, is not convinced that knockout game attacks are growing. Or that it’s even a game. He argues in an upcoming journal article that racially fueled knockout attacks are in the news is because they’ve actually become rarer than in the past. Knockout Game Video Knockout Game Therefore, they’re more notable than in the 1990s, when far more reports of so-called “ thrill hate crimes ” – think white teenagers beating up homeless men – were reported. “These knockout attacks are usually interracial, but not every interracial crime is a hate crime,” Levin says, drawing what he feels is an important distinction. “This is a thrill hate crime because typically young people who go out looking for someone to bash or assault, the act doesn’t necessarily require some triggering episode in wider society.” According to FBI hate crime statistics, 22 percent of the 3,297 reported racially motivated hate crimes in 2012 were anti-white, while 66 percent were anti-black. The Justice Department insisted on Thursday in response to the controversy that it does not discriminate in how it makes decisions on hate crime charges.

Alexis Rupp Is A Hottie To Keep An Eye On

She may not have won Miss Teen USA this year, but I’m still predicting big things for Miss South Dakota Alexis Rupp here. Because not only does she happen to have a killer bikini body, she’s also clearly mastered one of the keys to becoming a regular fixture on this site as a no-name hottie: the ability to do beach “photoshoots” in full view of the paparazzi. Like I said, this girl’s a pro. It takes most hot nobodies years to perfect this trick. » view all 11 photos Photos: Fameflynet

Jason Kidd Fined $50K For Spilling Drink On Court

Jason Kidd’s off-the-court antics have once again taken a chunk out of his salary. The Brooklyn Nets coach suspiciously spilled his drink at the tail end of November 27′s loss against the Los Angeles Lakers to delay the game , and it seems like the NBA isn’t buying his claims of innocence. They actually sent him a bill for $50,000 instead. Reports USA Today: The league said the fine was “for intentionally spilling a drink on the floor to delay the game.
