Coordinated Look of the Day: Halle Berry and Family

Halle Berry, Gabriel Aubry and Nahla

Some families have the looks. Others have style. Then there are those who make us want to cry because they’re blessed with both.

Now, I don’t know about you—but I can’t recall the last time my husband and I looked runway ready, let alone color-coordinated, the last time we walked off an airplane. But , Gabriel Aubry and their daughter Nahla somehow managed to pull it off during their flight to LAX yesterday.

Is there something besides free alcohol that I’m missing up in first class?

Kanye West Not Ready to Apologize for Airport Fight

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Legal Issues, Videos,

Although it’s been almost a month since he was detained at LAX, does not appear he’s about to get past that incident anytime soon.

Back on September 11 (a horrible date for any airport arrest), the musician and his road manager were both arrested for damaging a photographer’s equipment. Although West has since been cleared of a felony charge (he only destroyed a relatively inexpensive lighting component), he could still be slapped with a misdemeanor. (It’s unclear what charges his partner-in-crime might still be dealing with.)

Needless to say, Kanye wasn’t entirely thrilled about being questioned recently by another paparazzo:

Video of Kanye West’s Airport Scuffle

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Legal Issues, Videos,

UPDATE: Kanye may now be charged with a misdemeanor instead of a felony.

I’ve always heard that knew how to put on a show, and now we have the video to prove it.

The musician and a road manager were arrested this morning after an incident earlier this morning at LAX. According to TMZ, West (in a grey hoodie) for some reason became angry when he saw a still photographer trying to do what he does. Instead of brushing him off, West reached the pap’s $10,000 camera and eventually smashed it into the ground.

When Kanye’s road manager (Don Crowley) realized that another photographer was rolling on the scuffle, he then grabbed that videographer’s camera and broke it too.

Hairspray and America’s Next Top Model Stars Arrested

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Legal Issues,

Zac Efron and Nikki BlonskyUPDATE: Nikki and Bianca will not face any charges stemming from the incident. Carl Blonsky could still face up to 5 years in jail.

What is up with the women in Zac Efron’s life? First, Vanessa Hudgens embarrasses herself with her nude photos. Now Zac’s on-screen lady, Nikki Blonsky, has just gotten herself in trouble with the law!

According to Us Weekly, the star was arrested after getting into a fight at an airport. Interestingly enough, the brawl also involved Blonsky’s father and Bianca Golden’s family. Who’s Bianca Golden? Why she’s the short-haired beauty who placed fourth on America’s Top Model 9.

Wednesday’s incident in Turks and Caicos supposedly started after Nikki tried saving seats for her family in the airport’s lounge. This somehow lead to the confrontation with the Golden family. When the fight ended, both women wound up being charged with assault. Blonsky’s father was also charged with “grievous bodily harm” for allegedly attacking Bianca’s mother.

Both Nikki (who was just seen sporting a neck brace) and Bianca are currently out on bail while Carl Blonsky currently remains behind bars for a few more days. All parties will eventually have to return to the area for a court appearance.

Spare Batteries Fly Under New Rules

Laptop w/BatteryThere are now different rules if you intend to fly this year with spare batteries. Here are the basics from the our ever-wary government and the FAA:   

  • Spare batteries are the batteries you carry separately from the devices they power. When batteries are installed in a device, they are not considered spare.
  • You may not pack a spare lithium battery in your checked baggage.
  • You may bring spare lithium batteries with you in carry on luggage - see our spare battery tips and how-to sections to find out how to pack spare batteries safely!
  • Even though we recommend you carrying your devices with you in carry on baggage as well, if you must bring in one in checked baggage, you may check it with the batteries installed.

While all this seems a bit too obvious to us, we figure that the elementary way of explaining the rules isn’t just for the casual business traveler. Check the site for more details.
