Anna Nicole was over-medicated
A prosecution expert at the trial of Anna Nicole Smith's former partner has testified that Smith should have been weaned off prescription drugs.
As Howard K. Stern's drug conspiracy trial continued on Monday, prosecution witness Dr James Gagne stated that the amount of opiates and sedatives that the model was taking prior to her death left her behaving like "a space cadet".
Two of Smith's physicians, Khristine Eroshevich and Sandeep Kapoor, are also facing charges in the case and were criticised by the addiction specialist.
The AP reports that Gagne asserted that Smith's own history with drugs should have tipped off Stern and the star's doctors that she could not handle such heavy medication.
"Three sedatives were prescribed at the same time, and one would expect she would abuse them based on her medical history," he explained.
Gagne added that a person taking such a heavy dose of prescription medicine would feel "out of it. Emotionally, they're up and down, not functioning cognitively."
Monday's expert testimony marked the end of the second month of proceedings against Eroshevich, Kapoor and Stern.

Rachel Uchitel In A Bikini
For those who have been living in a cave the last six months, Rachel Uchitel is one of Tiger Woods’ mistresses. She might have been the first girl he hooked up with, or maybe he was just one of his main bitches. Supposedly she got a pretty healthy payout to keep her mouth shut.
Here she is hanging out at the pool in a bikini and looking hot. I can see why Tiger wanted to tap that. She has a nice body and I get the feeling this babe is one of those girls that will do anything you want if you ask in the right tone of voice.

The Iranian newspaper dubbed Carla Bruni prostitute
The Iranian daily Kayhan called the first lady of France "prostitute." Edition afford such insolence, so that brighter disagree with the position of Carla Bruni, which actively protects Sakine Mohammadi Ashtiany - Iranian woman sentenced to death for treason and involvement in her husband's death. But the matter is not in the death penalty, but in its execution. By Iranian law for such a crime a woman publicly stoned to death. In general, it is barbarism, and this fact could not leave indifferent wife of French president. Armed with the support of international human rights organizations and the actress Isabelle Adjani, Charles signed the petition, which calls for an end to such cruelty.
In order to demonstrate the cruelty of this type of penalty, in Paris, made a real theatrical staging of this horrendous action.
Naturally, the Iranian government did not like the criticism of the First Lady, and in response to her in a local newspaper published an article by a very shocking headline "The French prostitutes joined the protest of human rights defenders" (appeal also applies to the Isabella Adjani). The publication in very rough form described model Carla Bruni past, her relationship with men and others, in the opinion of the editorial board, immoral aspects of her life.
Nicolas Sarkozy and Carla Bruni, had no immediate comment on the attacks by the Iranian media, but, I think, will soon be some sort of official response to this shocking articles.

Indian film stars take salary cuts
The earnings of some of Bollywood's biggest stars are reported to have been hit by the recession.
According to The Hindu, many of the film industry's highest paid actors have been forced to take a salary cut in their recent projects.
Mr Jehil Thakkar, executive director of KPMG revealed: "During boom time, most of the studios paid stars astronomical amounts. In the past 12-18 months, the elevated prices of the stars have been rationalised due to the film industry's tightening budgets."
Inflated salaries were apparently seen as out of line with the true market value of many performers.
"Actors who just entered the industry had unrealistic pay packets," said an industry insider.
Leading figures Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan are confirmed to have paid less tax in the last financial year. Aamir Khan is reported to be the only actor to remain unaffected by the cuts, after a series of commercially successful global releases.

Paris Hilton 'thought cocaine was gum'
Paris Hilton has told police that she believed a vial of cocaine found in her purse was chewing gum.
The socialite was arrested in Las Vegas last weekend after her vehicle was stopped and she now faces felony drug possession charges.
According to documents obtained by US Weekly, the officer who stopped Hilton could smell "the strong odour of marijuana coming from the vehicle" and later allowed the 29-year-old to use the bathroom at a nearby hotel after she became "extremely embarrassed" by crowds gathering at the scene.
The policeman said that he discovered the cocaine - along with marijuana rolling papers and a broken tablet of Albuterol - when Hilton opened her purse to search for her chapstick.
"I saw a small bindle of what I believed to be cocaine in a clear baggie begin to fall from the purse and into my hand," he wrote.
Hilton is said to have admitted that the Albuterol and large amount of cash in the bag belonged to her but denied knowing about the origin of the cocaine.

Taylor Lautner Lawsuit Leads To Push-Up Challenge
Getting quite the strange counteroffer while trying to settle a trailer lawsuit out of court, Taylor Lautner has been issued a push-up challenge by the defendant.
The muscle-dependent proposition stems from the "Twilight" hunk's recent court filings alleging that Brent McMahon, who owns McMahon's RV in Irvine, California, failed to complete a $300,000 custom trailer in time for him to use on the set of his movie.
According to NY Daily News, McMahon wants to face-off against Lautner in a push-up contest rather than pay the actor the $40,000 in which he's seeking.
Denying any wrongdoing and expressing plans to go to court if Taylor doesn't accept the push-up plan, McMahon, 47, has even said that he'll donate the $40,000 in question to Children's Hospital of Orange County if her ends up beating his younger counterpart.
Meanwhile, Lautner's attorney, Robert Barta, was unwilling to comment - seemingly not taking to kindly to the unusual offer.

Antardwand
Set in rural Bihar where nothing works except the law of the lawless, "Antardwand" takes the firm and gripping route to expose a hinterland-headline - the kidnapping of marriageable boys by desperate fathers of wannabe brides.
This was a prevalent malpractice in Bihar until some years ago. Not so much any more.
Debutant director Sushil Rajpal's film works more for its deeper resonances than just the surface sincerity. It is not so much the sensational value of the theme ('dulha uth gaya') that makes "Antardwand" watchable as the treatment of the layers of socio-political irregularities and caste aberrations that generate a society of anarchy where kidnapping an aspiring groom is serious business.
The narrative is punctuated with bouts of savage humour. When the Delhi University civil service candidate Raghuveer (Raj Singh Choudhary) with a pregnant girlfriend (Himanshi), is kidnapped just yards away from his parents' home in rural Bihar, his confoundedness, and rage at the bizarre confinement is expressed in bouts and spasms of indignance.
The director knows the milieu well. He doesn't waste time exploring rural Bihar just because he has chosen to film his story on location.
The narrative never loses its momentum. Rather than opt for a dry docu-drama tone, director Sushil Rajpal has chosen to format the film as a thriller. The pace from the moment of Raghuveer's kidnapping to his escape is largely relentless.
The second-half of the plot gets more introspective as it becomes the story of the humiliated bride (newcomer Swati Sen, well cast) who finds herself with a man who has been forced to marry her. The rage of confinement and the anguish of rejection ooze out of the tense frames.
Sequences in the couple's bedroom with a gigantic tell-tale double-bed at its centre, capture the ironical nullity of a marriage based on bullying tactics. There is an element of naïve desperation in the couple's shared space.
The writing is hard-hitting but relentless, supple and slender. There is ample room for innuendoes in the dialogues and situations.
"Antardwand" avoids the easy road to realism. The ambience does not depend on how the actors pitch the accent in the spoken word or their body language. Though these are authentic, it's the deeper malaise of a society buried neck-deep in prejudices and superstition that the director focuses on.
The camera work by Malay Ray is exploratory but non-judgemental. Scenes of characters moving in and out of dark old-fashioned interiors are shot without wallowing in symbolism.
The performances are thoughtful. Akhilendra Mishra and Vinay Pathak pitch into the ambience of rousing realism as the father of the bride and the kidnapped groom, respectively. Raj Singh as the precious groom last seen in Anurag Kashyap's "Gulaal" again reveals an admirable ability to blend into the bleeding fabric of mofussil mayhem.
The film is suffused with sincerely sketched characters. Jaya Bhattacharya as the bride's far-from-persecuted bhabhi (sister-in-law) and for that matter the unknown actor Dadhi Raj Paney who plays Akhilendra Mishra's faithful servant, bring a kind of fringe fertility into the storytelling.
The finale is self indulgent in its idealism. A society so breached by gender and caste biases cannot be lit up by a sudden beam of optimistic light.
But no harm in trying.
Antardwand is a commendable attempt to examine the underbelly of rural Bihar. It doesn't purport to shake up the status quo. The film only wants to remind us that we need to heal our collective social conscience before curing the discrepancies that feed into our dream of emerging from the darkness into the light.

Madonna 'refuses Mercy's father access'
Madonna has refused to allow a man said to be the father of her adopted daughter to visit the 4-year-old, after questioning the legitimacy of his claims.
The 52-year-old singer adopted daughter Mercy from a Malawi orphanage last year. James Kambewa has since come forward and requested a meeting with the child, saying that he is her biological father.
However, Madonna's spokeswoman Barbara Charone told the South African Sunday Times: "The extended family members had no knowledge of a father. The village leadership had no knowledge of a father... the mother was raped and left."
Kambewa, a 26-year-old waiter from Durban, initially opposed the adoption, but has since told newspapers that he is happy that Mercy is living with the star.
Mercy is the second child Madonna has adopted from the African country, after adopting son David in 2006 with ex-husband Guy Ritchie.

I have compassion for Lohan
Jamie Lee Curtis has revealed that she feels compassion for her former Freaky Friday co-star Lindsay Lohan.
Speaking to OK, Curtis noted that she did not know the facts of the case that recently saw Lohan serve a jail sentence, but she offered her best wishes.
"I just have compassion. I don't know anything about the facts of any of the cases," she said.
The actress added that living one's life in the spotlight from such an early age could be the root of Lohan's problems.
"What I have is compassion that a young child is thrown into the public eye and then has the media onslaught attached to it. Now, she's made choices, I've made choices. We all have to live with our choices. But I feel empathy," she said.
Curtis stated that she believed the "media circus" is to blame for much of the drastic behaviour that celebrities sometimes exhibit.
"These young people are thrust into a 24-7 camera and the thing that makes the press is the most exaggerated behaviours," she explained.
"So then they're thrown out there in this media circus - and I can never judge one of them because I don't know them, but I feel tremendous empathy for this overwhelming set of circumstances. I couldn't handle having a camera on me 24 hours a day."

"What I have is compassion that a young child is thrown into the public eye and then has the media onslaught attached to it. Now, she's made choices, I've made choices. We all have to live with our choices. But I feel empathy," she said.
Curtis stated that she believed the "media circus" is to blame for much of the drastic behaviour that celebrities sometimes exhibit.
"These young people are thrust into a 24-7 camera and the thing that makes the press is the most exaggerated behaviours," she explained.
"So then they're thrown out there in this media circus - and I can never judge one of them because I don't know them, but I feel tremendous empathy for this overwhelming set of circumstances. I couldn't handle having a camera on me 24 hours a day."

Nicole Richie vets dad Lionel's partners
Lionel Richie has revealed that his daughter Nicole has made him promise not to date younger women, and insists on 'vetting' his prospective partners.
The 61-year-old singer told The Sun that he struggles to recognise women's ages. As a result, he relies on his children to help him decide whether his new girlfriends are suitable.
He said: "I find it so hard to distinguish women's ages now. You see a girl walking down the street and Nicole will say, 'Dad! That girl's 18 years old!' and I think, 'No way.'
"My children have to vet (my girlfriends) now. Nicole said to me a long while ago, 'Dad I won't date anyone your age if you don't date anyone my age. Deal?'"

Lady GaGa 'terrified of mobile phones'
Lady GaGa is reportedly scared of using mobile phones because she is worried about getting a brain tumour.
According to Bang Showbiz, the singer insists that a member of her entourage holds the phone away from her head during conversations.
A source said: "There have been various reports suggesting mobile phone use can increase your risk of developing cancer and brain tumours and even though there's no firm evidence, it really freaked her out.
"She's now insisting that whenever she makes a call, one of her team keys the numbers into her phone, then holds it up to her face so when she speaks it isn't too close to her head.
"She then listens to her calls on the speakerphone."
It is claimed that the 'Telephone' star has a series of bizarre requests, such as asking her security team to carry her to various locations because she only designates a certain amount of time each day for walking.
The source added: "Everyone around GaGa tries to tolerate her annoying and weird behaviour because they know it's likely to be just another phase."
