Last night Jeezy got arrested in Atlanta. He was pulled over around 2:30 a.m. and charged with pretty much everything shitty. His charges include a DUI, speeding, no tags, reckless driving, no proof of insurance and driving with an open container.
Jeezy, aka Jay Jenkins, was released this morning on bail. After recent allegations that Jeezy was involved in a cocaine trafficking ring his reputation is dwindling. He claims his plates fell off in the car wash. Damn Lambourgines. Stay up Jeezy!

Former Oakland Raiders great and current Alabama Crimson Tide broadcaster Kenny “The Snake” Stabler went down for his third DUI charge early Sunday morning. The ex-quarterback was picked up on Alabama 59, and now has bail set at $1,000. So haggard…

I never was really into Bon Jovi. I mean, I’ll get drunk and slur the words to ‘Livin On A Prayer’ like the rest of us, but thats about it. At least they have Richie Sambora, who could lay down some some badass talkbox parts.
Oh, speaking of Sambora, it appears that his two former stints in rehab didn’t work so well. On Tuesday, he was arrested on a DUI charge in Laguna, CA. In addition to himself, his girlfriend, daughter and daughter’s friend were in his Hummer with him. Because of the two minors in the car, he also faces possible child endangerment charges. Poilice said that he was very cooperative.
In the last year, Sambora had entered rehab, finalized a divorce with Heather Locklear, broke up with Denise Richards and his father died of lung cancer. Damn. With all that on his back, I understand a lil boozing, but certainly not while driving. Sambora goes to court May 7th .

St. Louis Cardinal Scott Spiezio — a former member of the Anaheim Angels and best best remembered for his 2002 game six home-run off San Francisco’s Felix Rodriguez — has once again found himself in trouble. Spezio apparently sped off in his BMW last December after a bout of vodka swilling at a Newport Beach bar. After cutting across traffic and crashing into a fence, Spiezio fled the scene on foot, eventually arriving at a friends apartment. Once there, Spiezio proceeded to vomit and attack his friend, leading to charges of aggravated assault. Today, upon hearing news of a warrant out for Spiezio’s arrest, the Cardinals promptly cut him. After missing considerable time due to substance abuse last season the decision was made with little outward remorse.
I for one say good riddance. Spiezio has always been a tool anyway. From his lame ass “metal” band Sand Frog, to his high-school looking dyed red flavor savor, I for one would not miss his presence at the big league level. I even met Spiezio once when I was a kid attending a spring training BBQ in 1997. Like a bunch of 12 year olds, we lined up for his autograph, being that he was one of a handful of ball players to attend the gathering. We didn’t even care that he stunk. When it was my turn for a signature, he looked at my basketball jersey and baggy shorts, and in a snide voice told me, “Pull your pants up.” Like I said, he’s a really cool guy.

If you caught any of the I Trust You To Kill me documentary where Kiefer Sutherland acted as Rocco Deluca’s tour manager and showed off his liver fortitude and mobile phone misplacement skills, it should come as little surprise that he failed a field sobriety test and was arrested this morning in LA for driving under the influence, further proving that Kiefer in real life is the bizarro Jack Bauer.
from the AP:
LOS ANGELES – Kiefer Sutherland was arrested early Tuesday for investigation of misdemeanor drunken driving after he was stopped for making an illegal U-turn and failed a field sobriety test, authorities said. The actor was pulled over about 1:10 a.m. in West Los Angeles, said Officer Kevin Maiberger.
Sutherland, 40, tested over the state’s legal blood alcohol limit of .08 percent, said Officer Karen Smith. Police declined to say what his blood-alcohol level was. Sutherland spokeswoman Annett Wolf declined to comment.The actor was released around 4 a.m. after posting $25,000 bail, according to Sheriff’s Department records. Maiberger said Sutherland was scheduled to appear in court Oct. 16.
I guess that interview we were scheduling is gonna get pushed back a bit…

So Mel Gibson was arrested in Malibu on Friday on DUI charges. Yes, Mel Gibson, the Christian Superhero. An insider web-blog, TMZ.com, is alleging a cover up by Malibu police:
As the two stood next to the hood of the patrol car, the deputy asked Gibson to get inside. Deputy Mee then walked over to the passenger door and opened it. The report says Gibson then said, “I’m not going to get in your car,” and bolted to his car. The deputy quickly subdued Gibson, cuffed him and put him inside the patrol car…. Once inside the car, a source directly connected with the case says Gibson began banging himself against the seat. The report says Gibson told the deputy, “You mother f****r. I’m going to f*** you.” The report also says “Gibson almost continually [sic] threatened me saying he ‘owns Malibu’ and will spend all of his money to ‘get even’ with me.”… The report says Gibson then launched into a barrage of anti-Semitic statements: “F*****g Jews… The Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world.” Gibson then asked the deputy, “Are you a Jew?“… The deputy became alarmed as Gibson’s tirade escalated, and called ahead for a sergeant to meet them when they arrived at the station. When they arrived, a sergeant began videotaping Gibson, who noticed the camera and then said, “What the f*** do you think you’re doing?“… A law enforcement source says Gibson then noticed another female sergeant and yelled, “What do you think you’re looking at, sugar tits?“… After leaving the bathroom, Gibson then demanded to make a phone call. He was taken to a pay phone and, when he didn’t get a dial tone, we’re told Gibson threw the receiver against the phone. Deputy Mee then warned Gibson that if he damaged the phone he could be charged with felony vandalism. We’re told Gibson was then asked, and refused, to sign the necessary paperwork and was thrown in a detox cell.
Since the reports have surfaced, Ari Emanuel (who greatly influences the Entourage character, Ari Gold) has put out a statement to call for Hollywood to blacklist Gibson:
At a time of escalating tensions in the world, the entertainment industry cannot idly stand by and allow Mel Gibson to get away with such tragically inflammatory statements. When The Passion of the Christ came out, Gibson was quoted as categorically denying any anti-Semitism attributed to him: “For me, it goes against the tenets of my faith, to be racist in any form. To be anti-Semitic is a sin. It’s been condemned by one Papal Council after another. There’s encyclicals on it, which is, you know — to be anti-Semitic is to be unchristian, and I’m not.”
Now we know the truth. And no amount of publicist-approved contrition can paper it over. People in the entertainment community, whether Jew or gentile, need to demonstrate that they understand how much is at stake in this by professionally shunning Mel Gibson and refusing to work with him, even if it means a sacrifice to their bottom line.
There are times in history when standing up against bigotry and racism is more important than money.
Let the drama begin…
