Michael Lohan & NeNe Leakes War Of Words

October 23, 2009 By Holly Stafford Leave a Comment

Another war of words erupted on “The Insider” last night, this time between attention seeker Michael Lohan and “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star NeNe Leakes.

Lohan has been speaking out to the media alot lately, saying that he wants to petition for his daughter’s Lindsay Lohans‘ conservatorship because he believes she is addicted to prescription drugs. Lohan appeared via satellite on the show, and Leakes barely let Lohan have a chance to defend himself for his public actions, though that still didn’t stop him from lashing back at her. She accused him of being a sell-out parent who is trying to make money on his daughter, calling him things like a “toxic parrot” and “manipulator,” but he denied the claims.

Per NY Daily News:

“I believe you’re just trying to make money off of Lindsay,” Leakes said. “You’re always in the press.”

Lohan responded, saying he hasn’t made any money off of his daughter and that he’s the only one trying to help her.

“I’m not going see my daughter die!” he said. “You have Michael Jackson, you had Heath Ledger, Adam Goldstein. You can go back to John Belushi, Anna Nicole Smith, and even Elvis Presley. It was prescription drugs that killed these people. I’m not going watch my daughter die.”

Undeterred, Leakes continued, threatening him physically. “Do not make me come after you,” she warned. “I will eat you alive.”

“Do something worthwhile and promote Nutri-System,” says Lohan. “Give your chair a break and move your fat a** outta there!”

Guess we know now where Lindsay gets her “Oh, well she’s fat” comebacks from. Leakes then takes it another step farther, telling Lohan to ‘go hang out with Jon Gosselin.’ Bah-Zing! Their war of the words ended with Lohan taking off his mic and leaving his chair, abruptly ending the interview. Come on now… we’re all adults here, aren’t we?

It’s been a rough couple of weeks for Daddy Lohan, who is reportedly about to get served with a restraining order by Lindsay. This comes after he made it public knowledge that he hoped stage an intervention for her whose alarming appearance and erratic behavior has left him sure she’s been popping pills and drinking in excess. Lindsay didn’t appreciate her father’s heart-to-heart with the tabloids and obviously Leakes didn’t either! But in the end, its Papa Lohan who looks like the bigger man, as he’s issued an apology to Ms. Leakes.

Per The Insider:

“I apologize to the producers of ["The Insider"], the viewers and even Miss Leakes for coming back at her, for her attack on me, in the inappropriate manner I did. I do however wish I had known she was on the panel because then I would have known what I was in for and I would have handled things differently. To begin with, she may have children, but none in a crisis situation. Second, for her to call me a broke a** when I am not, but she had a house in foreclosure and 2 cars repoed [sic], I would have addressed that as well. This show was about helping my daughter and owning up to my part of her life and why I have taken these measures. Not a personal attack on Lindsay or me. I am sorry for my conduct and I hope Ms. Leakes is for hers.”

Take this with a grain of salt – Knowing him, its just another way to keep his name floating about. Pick up on the cheap shots in his so-called apology? Check out the video above for your LOL’s of the day!

Kelly Rutherford Granted Restraining Order Against Estranged Husband

September 25, 2009 By Holly Stafford 1 Comment

“Gossip Girl” star Kelly Rutherford’s relationship with her estranged husband has just gotten that much uglier! Rutherford has been granted a temporary restraining order against her husband the father of her two kids, Daniel Giersch, after claiming he has been threatening and following her, among other things. The childrens nanny, Michaela Kothanova, claims she wound up quitting because she was so unnerved by Giersch’s attitude during custody exchanges and she was even threatened with legal action when she refused to answer his questions about Rutherford. Ann Edwards, Rutherford’s mom, alleges Giersch followed her and his son, 2-year-old Hermes, to restaurants and to a store without prior agreement. The declaration filed Thursday also accuses Giersch of being inflexible with his scheduled custody visits and stressing her out so much she’s having a hard time breastfeeding their 3 month old daughter Helena.

Per Zap2it:

“I am not producing enough breast milk to store up quantities that can be given to Daniel for feeding Helena,” she claims in the document. “I believe that the stress Daniel has created for me is also negatively impacting my ability to produce milk.”

Giersch said in his own court filing Thursday that Rutherford is the one who’s switching up the visits on him and he has concerns that Kelly, her caretakers, and Kelly’s mother are causing immediate harm to their children. His lawyer says that Rutherford’s claims are nothing but ‘fabricated accusations.’

Per PopEater:

“Daniel will remain focused on co-parenting both of their children and not make any personal comments in order to continue to protect the children’s need for privacy and well being,” says his lawyer, Fahi Takesh Hallin.

A judge has ordered Giersch to stay at least 100 yards away from Rutherford, Helena and their son Hermes “except for brief and peaceful contact as required.” The restraining order is in effect for 21 days pending a court date on October 15th to hear more evidence. The once happy couple have been in and out of court for months now, hiring PIs and haggling over minor things such as the kids’ potty-training, pool fences, residency, school, travel, and more. Giersch also claims that he found out online when she had their baby. Now that cold Kelly. Since when is a simple phone call asking too much?

‘Harry Potter’ Actor’s Killer Found Guilty

March 4, 2009 By Holly Stafford 2 Comments

A London jury has convicted Karl Bishop of killing teenage “Harry Potter” actor Rob Knox, who played Marcus Belby in the popular franchise movies. Prosecutors say Bishop killed Rob outside a bar in east London in May. Knox was stabbed five times, once fatally in a main artery, and died in the hospital later that night. All this could have been avoided and Bishop could have been arrested two months before in two missed chances by police. Armed with two kitchen knives and his face ‘screwed up with rage’, he stabbed Rob five times after Knox stepped in to protect his brother, who had been threatened by Bishop. Rob’s parents sobbed and were comforted by friends as the verdicts were delivered.

Per Telegraph:

“As a mother and parent I can never forgive the person responsible for taking my son Robert’s life, or the devastation that has been caused by these actions. You can never comprehend the loss or hurt caused by the death of a child, a child, which was wanted, carried for nine months and encouraged and supported through childhood to a young man. ” said Sally Knox, Robs mother.

“On May 24 2008 the lives of many people changed beyond belief. It was on that day my son, Robert Knox, was taken from this earth. His life was stolen, taken without permission. He was taken in the most cruel way possible.” said Collin Knox, Robs father.”

Bishop had reportedly sought the confrontation because he was furious that the actor had stood up to him a week earlier when he went to the bar aggressively demanding to know who had taken his phone and spoiling for a fight. Before leaving that night, he made a chilling prediction: ‘I’m going to come back next week and someone’s going to die.’ He did return as promised that night, but was denied entry and instead drunkenly harassed a teenage girl outside, trying to drag her off before ending up in the deadly confrontation with Rob and his friends.

Bishop was reported to police for an attempted knifepoint robbery two months earlier but detectives failed to arrest him. Two weeks later, the mother of the robbery victim also reported a burglary and named Bishop as the suspect, repeating the accusation that her son had been threatened with a knife. Scotland Yard admitted that it had been wrong in not arresting Bishop. The Met revealed that it had taken the issue so seriously that it had called in the Independent Police Complaints Commission to investigate. As a result, two police officers, a constable and a sergeant have all been given written warnings.

Five of their friends were also stabbed in the frightening ordeal, stabbing his victims at least ten times in less than two minutes. Bishop was also found guilty of wounding Rob’s friend Dean Saunders, 23. He was found not guilty of wounding another friend Tom Hopkins, 19.

So he’s found not guilty for his attack on one of his friends, and those officers who screwed up get nothing more than a written warning??? My prayers and condolences goes out to the entire Knox family. Thankfully, justice has been served.
