    Robert DeNiro

    Housekeeper charged with stealing from Hollywood stars A housekeeper whose client list included actor Robert De Niro and other A-list celebrities has been arrested and charged with stealing jewellery and designer clothes from her famous employers.Although the Manhattan District Attorney's office refused Wednesday to identify the victims, press reports said they included De Niro and actresses Isabella Rossellini and Candice Bergen.The housekeeper, Lucyna Turyk-Wawrynowicz, 35, was arraigned in criminal court on Tuesday on charges of grand larceny, possession of stolen property and 16 counts of forgery.According to the criminal complaint, Turyk-Wawrynowicz stole a pair of diamond earrings, valued at 95,000 dollars from the wife of one victim, identified in the press as De Niro.Turyk-Wawrynowicz reportedly began working for the actor's wife, Grace Hightower, back in May. Shortly afterwards, the couple noted items disappearing from their luxury home overlooking Central Park.Police arrested Turyk-Wawrynowicz on Monday, following a raid on her home in Queens where they recovered a host of stolen property.The forgery counts relate to the defendant's alleged use of another employer's credit card to charge 16 items purchased at the New York department store Barney's in 2001.A third celebrity victim accused Turyk-Wawrynowicz of stealing a suede jacket and other items from her home.When confronted, the housekeeper allegedly threatened blackmail."If you have me arrested, I will go to the press and tell them the reason I was fired and accused of these crimes is because your husband sexually harassed me and I refused his advances," the complaint quoted her as saying.Turyk-Wawrynowicz's next court appearance was scheduled for Friday.http://sg.news.yahoo.com/050622/1/3t3zr.html

    TLC

    TLC Chilli Regrets70'S ShowSeptember 25, 2005, 11:31:50 CHILLI REGRETS THAT '70S SHOW APPEARANCE TLC star ROZONDA 'CHILLI' THOMAS deeply regrets her guest appearance on the hit sitcom THAT '70S SHOW - because she resented having to dress up in a sexy nurse's outfit. The WATERFALLS singer, ex-girlfriend of USHER, appeared on the show in 2003, alongside series regular WILMER VALDERRAMA - who she insists resembles former CHiPS star ERIK ESTRADA. But what Thomas believed would have been an enjoyable experience turned into a nightmare when she arrived on the set. The sexy singer, who poses in a range of skimp bikinis in the October (05) issue of Maxim magazine, tells the publication, "I was on That '70s Show as the sexy nurse. I like that show, but I hated my character. I was like, 'I will never do anything like this again in my life. I feel crazy.' "I can't remember the guy's name on the show, the little guy who looks like the dude from CHiPS? He was dreaming in the hospital and I was the sexy nurse. I said yes before I saw the script. Then I was like, 'Oh, what do I have to wear?'

She says: "They're the people who wear home-made shirts that say 'Lick Me' on them. I like to call them 'Lick Lovers'. "I have seen them at loads of gigs we've been doing in Europe. They're as cute as can be and they give me presents. I've been given a rubber duck, a pair of boxer shorts, a painting and a bullet.

    Mindy McCready

    http://news.tbo.com/news/MGBLVYVALBE.html Country Singer Tries To Kill Self, Police Say By STEPHEN THOMPSON spthomp...@tampatrib.com Published: Jul 25, 2005 INDIAN ROCKS BEACH - Country Singer Mindy McCready was found unconscious Friday in the lobby of a hotel after apparently trying to kill herself, Pinellas sheriff's authorities said. McCready, 29, whose 1996 debut album included the hit ``Maybe He'll Notice Her Now,'' had taken large amounts of two substances and imbibed a large amount of alcohol, a sheriff's report states. The sheriff's office declined to identify the substances, saying that doing so would violate McCready's medical confidentiality rights. She was taken to an area hospital. Also in the lobby with McCready at the Holiday Inn Harborside was William McKnight, 39, a country singer from Brandon who described himself to authorities as McCready's fiance. McKnight was arrested in May in Nashville, Tenn., on charges he tried to kill McCready. McKnight reportedly told her she was not going to see other men before he punched her in the face, banged her head against a headboard and choked her until she began to lose consciousness, published reports state. McKnight posted $130,000 bail last month while charges of attempted criminal homicide and aggravated burglary wind through the Tennessee judicial system. Pinellas sheriff's Sgt. Jim Bordner said deputies asked the police department in Nashville whether a domestic violence injunction or any other type of restraining orderwas in effect, to prevent either McKnight or McCready from being near each other. None was, Bordner said. In the lobby, McKnight told deputies ``he had been having some relationship problems with McCready,'' and then handed them a four-page suicide note McCready had penned. ``McCready wrote about having problems with her relationship and wrote in the note saying goodbye to her family members and friends,'' the sheriff's report states. The note itself was not released. About the same time McCready tried to kill herself, reports surfaced that she faced five charges in Arizona stemming from her involvement with an alleged con artist. McCready is charged with two counts of unlawful use of transportation, and one count each of taking the identity of another, attempted fraudulent schemes and artifices, unlawful imprisonment and hindering prosecution, published reports state. An arraignment date of July 29 had been set. In May, McCready was arrested in Tennessee and charged with driving under the influence and driving on a suspended license. Last year, she pleaded guilty to fraudulently obtaining the painkiller OxyContin at a pharmacy and was fined $4,000, sentenced to three years of supervised probation and ordered to perform 200 hours of community service. She is the one that used to go out w/ Superman Dean Cain. She was kind of popular in the mid to late 90's.

    Phil Collins

    http://breakingnews.iol.ie/entertainment/s...413194&p=yx74... =107413693 Collins considers Genesis reunion 07/11/2005 - 08:10:19 Phil Collins is keen to reunite his former band Genesis and he wants to return to the original line-up - which would see singer Peter Gabriel fronting the group. The I Can't Dance hitmakers split in 1998, but original frontman Gabriel relinquished the lead position to Collins when he left to pursue a solo career in 1975. And now Collins confirms a revival could be on the cards. He says: "I'm open for it. I'm happy to sit behind the drums and let Peter (Gabriel) be the singer. If (a reunion) happens, I'll be there. If it doesn't happen it would just be because there are too many things in the way."

    Rocco's cute but he has been a living nightmare as far as chewing stuff up. I think he has finally almost gotten out of that stage but he is kenneled up all day while we are at work and my sons at school. Hopefully someday he can roam free during the day. Right now he cannot be trusted. So far he has chewed up about 20 hair clips. Dog toys dont work. He will demolish them in about an hour. About 15 of my bras which he digs out of the dirty laundry. I have gotten so many new bras this past year. My husbands 300 dollar cell phone which he had a week. Both my pairs of Rx eyeglasses. He chewed a big hole in my couch and loveseat in the middle of the night.........we thought he was through the chewing phase but obviously not......... He has chewed up various throw rugs in the house. He chewed up my 13 year olds cell phone twice. Luckily it was cheaper versions of cell phones. I got a shirt down out of a storage box in my closet. It is not easy to get that box down. Anyway...I get the shirt out...put this heavy box back. Turn around and my shirt is gone. Im thinking I left it in the box........I dont want to even get that heavy box down again so I said hell with it............next time I look in Rocco's kennel he has it in there and its no longer the nice white shirt I thought I had.........its filthy looking with a 100 chew holes in it. He has chewed the waistband off many pairs of my husbands boxer briefs. Anyhoo...........he is a good dog. Just went through a hell time with the chewing. He is funny...........he eats lightning bugs outside. My old German Shephard that died awhile back in April...........Rebel...........she loved going on car rides and would hop in and out of the car. Rocco wants to be chauffered. He will not hop in and out of the backseat or car. You have to open the doors for him like he is in a limo or something. Anyway....love him though.....

    Kate Moss

    Sexy Kate Moss pictures crash website 04.09.06 Lingerie designer Agent Provocateur has persuaded Kate Moss to make her movie debut - in a series of erotic short films. In the four four-minute movies, which will be released over a period of weeks on the firm's website, Miss Moss can be seen in various states of undress acting out a dream sequence. The film marks the first time Miss Moss has taken a speaking part on film - though she did recently speak on a television advert for Virgin mobile. In the accompanying voice-over for the first film Miss Moss's dulcet Croydon tones can be heard saying: "That was such a strange dream. I was in this big, empty house. I was lying on the floor and there was a chalk mark around my body - like in a crime scene. I got up, but it was like I floated up. My body was weightless. "I could hear the sound of the sea, big waves crashing, and I could also hear some music somewhere, like someone was having a party. "The music was coming from one of the rooms. One of the doors opened and a woman came out. 'You're Miss X, right?'" And so the monologue goes on. In the third movie, Miss Moss actually strips bare. The films, made over two nights in a mansion in London's Portland Place, are directed by movie veteran Mike Figgis, maker of Leaving Las Vegas. "She was insecure about her voice. But she’s got a nice voice," said Figgis. Miss Moss, 32, has never been shy about taking off her clothes, playing on her sexualised image throughout her career. So far, her most risque part has been a Sofia Coppola-directed video for the White Stripes, in which she was a lap dancer sliding provocatively - and convincingly - around a pole. The company's website crashed yesterday after thousands logged on to see the first of the four films.

    Star Jones

    Star Jones Reynolds sorry for wedding spectacleFriday June 30 9:51 PM ETNewly fired co-host of "The View," Star Jones Reynolds, apologized to fans on Friday for getting "caught in the euphoria" of marital bliss when she planned her lavish, freebie-filled wedding in 2004.Reynolds' mea culpa for behavior that earned her the label "Bridezilla" in tabloid headlines two years ago came during an appearance on NBC's "Today" show, one of several interviews she has given since her messy departure from "The View" this week.ABC and Barbara Walters, creator, executive producer and lead host of "The View," has said the negative publicity surrounding Reynolds' wedding extravaganza was a key factor in turning viewers against her, which ultimately cost Reynolds her job. The former prosecutor, then known as Star Jones, came under fire around the time of her November 2004 wedding to Al Reynolds when she accepted expensive wedding supplies and services for free, donated by corporate "sponsors" in return for publicity.On Friday, Reynolds, 44, acknowledged that she had gotten carried away with her nuptials."I don't think I took the viewers on the right journey with me, and I want to apologize for that," she said. "I was a 40-year-old who, according to urban legend, had a better chance of being kidnapped by a terrorist than getting married. And I was caught in the euphoria. And I think I used, and some would say abused, my celebrity in planning the wedding."If she had it to do over again, Reynolds added, "I would be more humble, and I would allow them to see the genuine character of who I am, which I hope they see right now."But Reynolds was less forthcoming about another issue that ABC and Walters said came up in network research last year showing that Reynolds was falling out of favor with viewers -- her abrupt and dramatic weight loss.While Reynolds is widely assumed to have shed more than 100 pounds with the help of gastric bypass surgery, she has never publicly acknowledged undergoing such an operation while promoting the benefits of a healthy lifestyle.Asked about the issue by Roker, who himself has undergone gastric bypass, Reynolds would only say that "a medical intervention, doctors, had to step in to save my life." And she said found it "disheartening" that ABC "would use something so private ... at this moment."Reynolds touched off a wave of public blood-letting when she caught Walters and ABC off guard by announcing on Tuesday's broadcast of "The View" that she would end her nine-year tenure on the show in July.That same day, People magazine published excerpts of an interview in which Reynolds complained she had been given notice days before learning that Rosie O'Donnell, one of her most vocal critics, would be joining the show in the fall.Walters, who had clasped hands with Reynolds, warmly wished her well and led the studio audience in a standing ovation on Tuesday, opened the next day's show with the frosty declaration that Reynolds was not welcome back.Walters later said that she felt betrayed that Reynolds refused to stick to an understanding she had reached with ABC to leave the show with "dignity" -- by inventing a reason for her exit that the network and "The View" would support.Reuters/VNU
