Chris Brown to stay in jail, Kanye West gets away with just probation...
In the news on this Monday, Chris Brown got shut-down in court, as he tried to avoid being forced to remain in the gray bar hotel until April 23rd. The judge will hold a probation violation hearing on that date. He might get out a few days early to travel to Washington, D. C. to stand trial for criminal assault. If he's convicted in D. C., the Los Angeles based judge could send him to prison for four years. That would be for violating his probation in the case where Brown beat his ex-girlfriend, Rihanna.
Kanye West pled out in the case where he was accused of giving a photographer at LAX a beatdown. He gets two years probation, 24 sessions of anger management and 250 hours of community service. Oh, and he's on the hook for the paparazzi's medical bills and cost of equipment replacement.
Mr. T. is going to be this year's inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame, the day before WrestleMania XXX. He was part of the main event at the initial WrestleMania, teaming up with Hulk Hogan to face Paul Orndorff and "Rowdy" Roddy Piper.
Some members of the news media need to be more judicious in their use of the term "viral". Reports from a CBS affiliate claim a note from a waitress to a patron, saluting the patron's generosity had reached 1,500 likes on Facebook. That's hardly viral.
Seeing a news item about Laura Prepon reminded me of how badly the movie "Lay the Favorite" performed. With a budget of $20 million, it couldn't hit $2 million in box office. That's with Catherine Zeta-Jones and Bruce Willis in it.
The characters on the TV show "Lost" weren't dead and weren't in purgatory. Glad the producers finally cleared that up.
Clothing retailers are having major problems with the appearance of their models, as Hollister just pulled a photo from their FB page because she was supposedly "too thin." Reporter's note: Delete Photoshop from the computers of your marketing departments and you'll do fine.
Mason Endres is one of the victims of the tragic car accident at SXSW. She is going to be alright, but she has a broken neck, fractured leg and other injuries. She didn't get to watch her favorite band, Jared & the Mill, so they went to her hospital room and played for her right there.
A car dealership in Wichita being picketed by a union has turned the protest into a marketing opportunity.
Lindsay Lohan has finally been paid by the producers of her new reality TV show. Apparently she's not used to the concept of being paid after the work is done.
Amanda Seyfried says she won't pretend that filming sex scenes is not fun.
The University of Indiana says that its men's basketball team "...doesn't play in the CBI." Too bad, they could have used the practice for next season.
Looking at one writer's list of the top ten video games of the 1980s, my favorite was not their #1 selection, Super Mario Brothers. It was their #7 pick, Karate Champ, with #2 Tetris and #3 Pacman close behind.
