Pete Doherty warrant issued

A warrant has been issued for Pete Doherty’s arrest. The Babyshambles rocker is in trouble with police again after he failed to appear in court on Thursday.

Pete was due to enter a plea against allegations he pulled a camera from a female photographer’s neck, causing $400 of damage. This is the second time Pete has failed to appear at the magistrate’s court in Yeovil, South West England. He missed a scheduled court date last month on the same charges.

Pete, 28, is alleged to have chased press photographer Cath Mead, 22, into a shop in the town of Crewkerne and yanked the camera from her neck, damaging its lens.

Pete gave chase after Mead took a photograph of him and his then-girlfriend Irina Lazareanu.

At the time of the alleged incident, Pete was already on bail for drugs and driving offences.

He is now expected to appear before magistrates next week. Pete was jailed for 14 weeks this April for breaching his probation order. He was released in May after serving 29 days of his sentence.

Details on Eminem Lawsuit

I wrote before that Eminem was in a scuffle at a strip joint. I can now provide you with details as a lawsuit has been filed. Miad Jarbou claims that he was minding his own business at a Michigan strip club. He went to the bathroom when moments later, Eminem showed up and parked at the neighboring urinal. The rapper’s guard was present when one of Jarbou’s friends walked in, recognized Slim and allegedly said “Hey Eminem, what’s up man?” According to the suit, the guard dog responded “Shut the f**k up man! Don’t say another word.” When Jarbou responded with “Hey man, my friend ain’t starting trouble, it’s just cool to see Eminem.” And that’s when Eminem punched Jarbou in the face. Uh, ok.

Britney Rolls Out

Britney Spears was a no show to her deposition on Wednesday and said she was too sick to actually go. But she looked just fine when paparazzi caught her driving around until 2 in the morning on Thursday.

Cameras caught the pop wreck and an unidentified assistant leaving the Four Seasons and heading to a gas station. When she was asked why she missed her very important deposition on Wednesday morning, she didn’t answer. When asked how she was doing, she said “Just fine.” So why the no show? After filling up her tank with $50 worth of gas at the 76, she went to another gas station on Sunset. Why would you go to 2 gas stations the same night?

Britney Spears Skips Out

Well, she’s done it again. Britney was a no-show in court Wednesday morning.

K-Fed’s lawyer announced to media that Britney Spears couldn’t attend her deposition because she was ill. Mark Vincent Kaplan announced, “I was told of a general condition, and she felt she couldn’t attend.”

Her friend Sam Lufti says, “She’s sick, both physical and high anxiety. Millions of press outside. It’s too much.”

A new date was assigned but it has not yet been announced. K-Fed’s attorney has already filed a complaint that Britney has skipped out on her deposition four times in one year. Depositions have been completed for many associates of Brit’s and hers was only expected to last for about a day.

Maybe if she’s give up smoking, she would be so sick…

High School Musical Star Headed to Court

A lawsuit filed against High School Musical star Vanessa Hudgens will go forward, according to a Superior Court Judge Tricia Ann Bigelow. She believes a jury should hear the case of the lawsuit brought by Hudgens’ former attorney Brian Schall.He is suing Vanessa for over $150,000 in owed legal fees. He filed a breach-of-contract suitin September. Allegedly, she agreed in October 2005 to give him 5% of her earnings as payment for his legal work. He says, because of him, she earned over $5 million.

Vanessa nullified the agreement on October 9th. California law says that a contract with a minor can be voided before they are 18 or “within a reasonable time afterward.” She turns 19 on December 14, so it will be up to a jury to decide if she acted within that reasonable time.

She returns to court on January 15.

Boy George Hearing

The drag singer of the Culture Club Boy George was seen hastily exiting the Thames Magistrates Court in London on Friday. The former singer turned DJ appeared in court on a charge of false imprisonment on a 28-year old male escort by chaining him to a wall.

George, whose real name is George O’Dowd was ordered to stand trial for the incident which was said to have taken place in his flat on April 28. He allegedly handcuffed the escort to a bed and threatened him with sex toys.

The hearing only lasted enough time for George to confirm his name and date of birth and exited too fast for paps to get anything answered.

Bad News for Wino

Bad news came for Amy Winehouse and her husband Blake Fielder Civil on Friday. Blake’s request for bail was denied.The troubled singer’s equally troubled husband has been in jail for the most of November already and he will now be in the slammer until January 18th at the very least. That’s the schedule of the next hearing in his witness tampering case.

That sucks for him and Amy. Can they not get better lawyers? Even Paris Hilton’s lawyer would do. But then again, interfering with justice isn’t really looked at as a good thing. Blake may just as well make himself comfortable.

Boy George Naughty Boy

The stars are forever in trouble. Drugs, traffic issues, paparazzi; there’s always some celebrity being slapped on the wrist for something these days. But today’s celeb isn’t in trouble for a simple traffic violation. Oh, no. Singer and star Boy George appeared in court this Thursday; wait for it; being charge with false imprisonment of a male escort.

Cue to snigger behind your hand. I shouldn’t really make a joke out of it but seriously. Sounds like a weird sex game to me, not a crime. What the man does behind closed doors is his own business. I can’t imagine the guy was exactly forced into the chains can you? But hey, what do we know.

The former Culture Club singer allegedly chained the man to the wall in his bedroom in East London on the 28th of April this year. He did not enter a plea and has been released on conditional bail until his next hearing in February next year. A wise word to the policemen – don’t give the man handcuffs he might think you want to play…
