<p>&#8220;Denise and her girls live a simple life,&#8221; an insider tells <a href="http://www.popeater.com/2011/03/29/denise-richards-security-charlie-sheen-threats/">PopEater</a>. &#8220;She wants Sam and Lola to have normal lives, but after the recent threats and verbal attacks, she has increased her security. When you are dealing with a mad man, it&#8217;s better to be safe than sorry.&#8221;</p>
<p>Although there has been problems with the couple for a while, the most recent incident took place when Charlie called Denise a <span>&#8220;traitor and loser whore&#8221; via Twitter over allegedly stealing his dogs.</span></p>
<p><span>&#8220;How Denise has managed to keep all this secret for so long is a miracle,&#8221; a friend of the former couple tells PopEater. &#8220;If Charlie is willing to put those evil tweets out in public, you can only imagine what he has called Denise in private.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>In recent months, Charlie certainly has been pretty funny but this is too much. Denise Richards put up with a lot of sh*t from Charlie. In this case you look like an idiot Charlie.</p>

<p>With the plea entered, Wilson now awaits sentencing at her hearing on November 22<sup>nd</sup>, where DiCaprio could see justice served.  The felony charge carries a punishment of up to four years in a state prison—but with time already served in jail that could be reduced.</p>
<p>Wilson slashed DiCaprio’s face at a party held by Rick Salomon—the guy in the Paris Hilton porn video—in the Hollywood Hills back in 2005.  The attack left Leo with a wound that required over 15 stitches to patch up.</p>
<p>Maybe DiCaprio should have gone into Wilson’s dreams and persuaded her to not do such a crazy thing.  Either way, at least she’s taking some kind of ownership for her actions and will have to pay the price for her crime.</p>

<p>The reality star claims that she was at a Hot Topic at the Staten Island Mall Friday when she was struck in the back of the head.  A source close to Angelina said that there was a “rowdy group” of people who approached Angelina and a friend.</p>
<p>As Angelina’s story goes, someone attacked her from behind, hitting her head and leaving a big welt.</p>
<p>In contrast to her strong allegations, mall security claims that a small group of people had been filming Angelina and her friend and someone ended up hitting her in the face by mistake.</p>
<p>Everything cooled down when security made the crowd disperse, but according to a source, Angelina is looking for help from the police to determine what to do next.</p>

<p>Michael claims that last night he was attacked outside his home by an old man in a black tracksuit, who also, as Michael says, used a sharp object against him.</p>
<p>Sources tell <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2010/10/21/lindsay-lohan-dad-father-michael-lohan-attacked-robbery-attempt-santa-monica-police/" target="_blank">TMZ</a> that Michael exited his Santa Monica home a little before 10:00 PM, on his way to get cigarettes, and was jumped by a man in his 50’s or 60’s, who put him in a choke hold and allegedly cut Michael’s neck twice with a sharp object.</p>
<p>The Santa Monica Police Department confirmed that they did receive a call at 9:56 PM and responded accordingly, but no suspect has been apprehended yet.</p>
<p>According to <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2010/10/22/michael-lohan-attacked-sliced-lindsay-lohan-santa-monica-knife-slasched-neck/" target="_blank">TMZ</a>, Michael let police know that before the attack, he had received a threatening phone call.  Also, Michael has reportedly been attributing the attack to someone’s disliking of his decision to go to Lindsay’s court hearing today.</p>

<p>In a police report obtained by <a href="http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2010/06/exclusive-teenager-claims-jodie-foster-attacked-him-see-police-report" target="_blank">RadarOnline</a>, a teenager claims that it all happened on May 29 at The Grove in Los Angeles.  The father of the teenager says that Foster “came after him [and] poked him in the chest&#8221; and &#8220;pushed and shoved him leaving scratches and bruises on his arm.”</p>
<p>Foster has a different story though.  A rep for the actress says, “this guy was most definitely a professional paparazzo.”</p>
<p>&#8220;He had a large camera bag and 1000mm telephoto lens. He tailed Jodie and followed her all the way from the movie theater to the valet,&#8221; adding &#8220;he crowded her and her two young children and took photos of them the whole time.”</p>
<p>&#8220;This guy&#8217;s behavior was completely inappropriate,&#8221; says the rep, &#8220;and the police report is a fabrication of the incident.&#8221;</p>

ABC News reports that the supermodel got physical with one of their cameramen. A reporter merely asked her about allegations that former Liberian President Taylor gave her a blood diamond in 1997, and she lashed out.</p>
<p>She managed to stay poised in front of the camera – she initially seems very calm in the video; telling the reporter, “ I didn’t receive a diamond and I’m not going to speak about that.”</p>
<p>Then things got nasty. The reporter continued to ask the 39-year-old British supermodel about her refusal to cooperate with Taylor’s international trial for crimes against humanity. Campbell then walked out of the interview, smashed the camera to the ground and allegedly threw a punch at the cameraman.</p>
<p>Campbell’s involvement with Taylor was first pointed out by actress Mia Farrow, who was present in 1997 when Taylor gave Campbell a gift; the huge, uncut diamond ring.</p>
<p><span id="more-29413"></span></p>
<p>Naomi Campbell came down [for breakfast], Farrow told ABC News. She said that during the night, men knocked on her door and she, half-asleep, opened the door to reps of President Charles Taylor. They then gave her a huge diamond ring. And we were like, &#8216;Oh, my gosh,&#8217;&#8221; Farrow said.</p>
<p>The Special Court of Sierra Leone alleges that the former president of Liberia killed thousands in Sierra Leone between 1997 and 2001, and he used the currency from blood diamonds to fund his war.</p>
<p>The outburst isn’t anything new for Campbell, she has had numerous lawsuits and arrests dating back to 2000. This incident comes right after her limo driver filed a report with the New York City Police Department last month that she slapped and punched him. She pleaded guilty to assaulting two police officers in London’s Heathrow airport in 2008 and is notorious for attacking people with her cell phone: throwing her phone at maids and assistants. It is no wonder the gorgeous supermodel is still single.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Posted on <a href="http://www.andpop.com">andPOP</a>:</p><p>Rihanna has finally made a statement to the public since her alleged altercation with boyfriend, Chris Brown, MTV news reports.</p>
<p>&#8220;At the request of the authorities, Rihanna is not commenting about the incident involving Chris Brown,&#8221; reads a statement from her representatives. &#8220;She wants to assure her fans that she remains strong, is doing well, and deeply appreciates the outpouring of support she has received during this difficult time.&#8221;</p>
<p>This statement was a response to the posted photo of Rihanna on TMZ.com. The timing of the photograph was unfortunate, as it was posted on Thursday, and Friday is Rihanna’s 21st birthday. The infamous photograph pictured the singer from Barbados crying, and apparently severely beaten up. The photo, evidently leaked by a source within the Los Angeles Police Department, prompted a international investigation by the LAPD.</p>
<p>According to mtvnews.com, Rihanna’s father spoke with media outlets as well. He referred to the photo leak on Friday as “sloppy work on [the LAPD’s] part.”</p>
<p>Another photograph published is of the singer in a car in Los Angeles on Thursday night, reportedly on her way to an airport. This picture was posted on People.com and OK! magazine’s Web site.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Posted on <a href="http://www.andpop.com">andPOP</a>:</p><p>No joke: Ryan Seacrest was attacked by a shark over the weekend.</p>
<p>Luckily for him, it was just a baby. As Seacrest explained on his radio show Monday that he was wading in the water at the beach when he felt something swim past him.</p>
<p>&#8220;I thought it was a stick,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I wasn&#8217;t sure what had happened. Then I saw it swim! He took a bite, and he left.&#8221;</p>
<p>He later found one of the shark&#8217;s teeth lodged in his foot.</p>
<p>Seacrest was incredulous about the incident. When asked if anyone else was hurt, he replied, &#8220;No, just me, of course! There were like 1,000 people in the ocean, and I get bit by the shark!&#8221;</p>
<p>He was still in minor pain at the time of his radio show.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Posted on <a href="http://www.andpop.com">andPOP</a>:</p><p>Kele Okereke, the singer for Bloc Party, was attacked Saturday by Sex Pistols singer John Lydon.</p>
<p>Okereke approached Lydon as a fan, asking about a possible reunion of his post-Sex Pistols band, Public Image Ltd.</p>
<p>Okereke told the Guardian UK that Lydon then became &#8220;intimidating and aggressive while his entourage responded with a racist tirade, including the statement, &#8216;your problem is your black attitude&#8217;.&#8221; Okereke is of Nigerian descent.</p>
<p>Okereke was left with &#8220;severe facial bruising and a split lip&#8221; following the assault, but that wasn&#8217;t the worst part for him. &#8220;It&#8217;s not an issue of the physical assault, even though it was an unprovoked attack,&#8221; Okereke commented. &#8220;It is the fact that race was brought into the matter so readily. Someone as respected and as intelligent as Lydon should know better than to bring race into the equation, or socialise with and encourage those who hold such narrow-minded attitudes.</p>
<p>&#8220;I am disappointed that someone I held with such high regard turns out to be such a bigot.&#8221;</p>
<p>Several other bands witness the attack and stepped in on Okereke&#8217;s behalf.</p>
