Steven Slater (JetBlue Dude) Sentenced to Mental Health Program

Steven Slater, you remember him as the flight attendant who freaked out on the job and dispatched the inflatable slide, right?
He supposedly was fed up with a rude passenger and bailed the plane via its inflatable slide, even though there were reports that came out later which refuted his claims. Well, anyhoo, he was in trouble and charges filed against him.
Slater faced the possibility of going to jail for seven years. Things worked out much better than that, well I guess, this depends on the person. Instead of 7 years in jail, he was sentenced to one year in a mental health program and ordered to pay $10,000 in fines.
He doesn’t have to pay these monies until after he finishes the program. Slater’s charges? Two counts of criminal mischief.

Teresa Giudice Might Not Return To RHONJ

It looks like Teresa Giudice might not return to ‘The Real Housewives of New Jersey.’ The reason? Teresa supposedly wants more money and Bravo doesn’t want to give it to her.

Her desires are slowing up the contract negotiations and it appears that Bravo is getting tired of it. As evidence of their displeasure, the television station is looking for replacement candidates.

Reportedly, Teresa’s gripe is that she is not getting paid as much as her co-stars. She wants her salary doubled. If she is getting paid less then her RHONJ counterparts, she has a legitimate gripe. Her antics are as entertaining if not more so then her co-stars, minus Danielle of course. The problem with Danielle is that she took it too far. She could have gotten someone killed.

I really hope that Teresa returns. She’s hilarious! However, I hope she gets her life in order first. It looks like things are pretty tough right now. Well, on second thought, if she doesn’t come back, she wan’t be able to hoc her second installment of Skinny Italian on the show and the more publicity she can get, the better. She could use the money she made to help her family overcome their financial troubles. Oh well, it looks like a bit of a catch-22. Either way, I’m Team Teresa!

Tyson Sued with $25 Million Lawsuit by Paparazzo

A paparazzo photographer filed a lawsuit worth $25 million against Mike Tayson for a ruckus that happened at LAX airport a year ago on November 11, 2009. Antonia Echevarria has formally submitted the lawsuit at the Los Angeles Superior Court saying that he has suffered from a couple of injuries inflicted by the boxer.
According to him, Tyson also threatened him by saying that he will kill him. The paparazzi photographer stated that the boxer went after him at the airport, giving him injuries on the spine, neck, face, and a brain concussion.
During that time Tyson was on a trip to Las Vegas and was with his wife, assistant, mother-in-law, and 10-month-old daughter. After the fight between the two, both Echeverria and Tyson have filed for a citizen’s arrest on each other in account of misdemeanor battery.
The story, however, was different according to Tyson’s side. Shawn Chapman Holley, Tyson’s ex-attorney said that Echeverria was the one who provoked Tyson by aggressively following him and his family. The airport personnel tried to stop the paparazzo but Echeverria refused to follow the directives and even hit the baby’s stroller at one point.
As for Tyson, the boxer was pretty confident that the case will be properly handled given the number of witnesses they have.

Is Beyonce Pregnant?

Rumor has it that a certain R&B star and her famous rapper beau (and husband) are with child. The “Bootylicious” singer, Beyonce is supposedly pregnant with her husband’s child. She is reportedly three months along.
Well, the only thing that I have to say is that I’m surprised. I know getting pregnant is what is supposed to happen after a couple spends years together and is married but Beyonce always seemed to want to put the entire affair on hold. First, she wouldn’t admit that she was married and then seemed unwilling to have a baby for so long.
Now, there has been no direct confirmation of this news. Right now, it is just hearsay. Perhaps we will hear something soon but who knows with Beyonce we may not hear anything until after she gives birth!

Lohan’s Dad Promises A Vow of Silence

Finally! This just might be good news. Michael Lohan, Lindsay Lohan’s dad, is promising that he will stop talking to the media. He even went on to apologize for any hurt that his rants and speaking to the media has caused.
The patriarch of the family even claims that he will take the high road. He has stated that ven if people talk badly about him, he will not respond. Well, let’s see how long this will last. I’m thinking, not too long.
Michael seems to find it really difficult to keep his mouth shut. He likes to talk and it seems like he enjoys the media and all the attention that it affords.
Hopefully, though he promises to stop going public with his rants, he will still fight on Lindsay’s behalf to keep her sober. Dina seems a bit too lax. Well, best wishes for the entire family!
