Kiefer Sutherland Is at It Again

Kiefer Sutherland has apparently learned nothing. He was involved Tuesday morning in a dispute on 99 Prince Street in downtown Manhattan. The New York Daily News is reporting that Sutherland was talking to Brooke Shields outside the Soho club SubMercer. The two were there for a party after the Met’s Costume Institute Gala. Funny, Sutherland doesn’t strike me as the Gala kind of guy. Anyhow, Shields’ friend Jack McCollough, a Proenza Schouler designer, apparently interrupted the conversation and Sutherland did what any normal person would do – he headbutted him. Okay, I said that tongue in cheek. Before the headbutt, … Continue reading

Another DUI Arrest and Another Celebrity Divorce

Having learned nothing from Kiefer Sutherland, Lindsay Lohan, Rebecca De Mornay, or Mickey Rourke, actress Mischa Barton was arrested this weekend on DUI charges. After straddling two lanes and failing to signal when turning, the 21 year old was pulled over by sheriff’s deputies on La Cienega Boulevard at 2:45 a.m. The deputies found Mischa had been drinking and was in possession of marijuana. Oh yeah, and just like Britney, Mischa was driving without a driver’s license too, according to a statement released by Sgt. John Hocking of the sheriff’s department. Mischa, perhaps best known for appearing on the teen … Continue reading

Catching Up With Kiefer and Lindsay

I blogged not too long ago about “24” star Kiefer Sutherland and his most recently DUI. I had to preface that with “most recent” because he has had quite a few. Live and learn Kieifer, live and learn! Anyhow, today he was sentenced to 48 days in the Glendale jail after pleading no contest to drunk driving on September 25. His blood alcohol level was above the .08 legal limit allowed in California. Kiefer must begin serving his time before March 30, 2008. Part of the reason he got jail time was that he was still on probation for a … Continue reading

The Internet site recently gave users the opportunity to choose their dream Thanksgiving guest. Thousands replied and the winner is… Jennifer Aniston. How did that happen? According to AOL, more than 26 percent of responders chose the former “Friend” as the person they would most enjoy sitting next to at the Thanksgiving dinner table. Other Hollywood stars voters wanted to share a turkey leg with include actress … Continue reading

She pleaded no contest and she was sentenced to three years probation. The Superior Court judge also ordered her to enter an alcohol education program that will last for 90 days.
