Russell Brand Arrested at LAX
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Legal Issues, Rumors,
It hasn’t been a good week for the paparazzi.
On Thursday, Adam Lambert allegedly assaulted a photographer while in Miami Beach.
A day later, Russell Brand was involved in his own scuffle – this one at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). After getting physical with several photographers, he was placed under citizen’s arrest by one of the cameramen. The actor/comedian was officially detained later by police.
Brand’s trip to the police station was brief. After being booked on suspicion of battery, he posted $20,000 bail and was released on his own recognizance.
Fiancee Katy Perry, who was with Brand at the time, later tweeted about the incident. “If you cross the line & try an put a lens up my dress, my fiancé will do his job & protect me. #standbyyourman #don’tf**kwiththeBrands,” she wrote.

Adam Lambert Accused of Assaulting Photographer
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Music, Television, Legal Issues,
American Idol 9 runner up Adam Lambert is facing battery charges following an altercation with a photographer in Miami Beach on Thursday.
Photog Victor Eras says Glambert charged toward him and attacked him. Although the 38-year-old did file a report, police say Eras did not sustain any injuries. It’s not known what, if anything, precipitated the scuffle.
According to the Associated Press, the state attorney’s office will decide if any charges should be filed against the singer.
Adam addressed the story via Twitter: “Battery? Nope. I attempted to grab a camera, no punches were thrown and no one was on the ground…. It was literally harmless. If embarrassment is a crime- thats all I’m guilty of.”
It’s actually one of the most lucid Twitter posts we’ve read all week.

Lindsay Lohan Dating Female Photographer
While she may be having legal woes, she’ll at least have a shoulder to cry on: Lindsay Lohan has a new girlfriend!
The 23-year-old actress - who previously dated DJ Samantha Ronson - has grown close to photographer 36-year-old Indrani since they met on a photo shoot last autumn.
Indrani - also known as Julia I. Pal-Chaudhuri - told the New York Post, “We have been spending a lot of time together. I have never had a relationship with a woman before, but Lindsay is just somebody who I find fascinating, gorgeous and extremely smart, as well as super-hot. Lindsay gets a lot of bad press, but she’s a really strong, creative woman and is trying really hard to get her life in a good, positive place.”
The couple have been on a series of dates in Los Angeles and recently spent the night together at the actress’ hotel. Indrani’s photography partner, Markus Klinko, thinks the pair are good for each other:
“Lindsay and Indrani have been seeing each other since we shot her last fall. I’ve seen them on dates, I have seen them making out. Indrani is a good influence on Lindsay. She is the opposite of a party girl - a Princeton graduate, she’s into art and is a philanthropist - not what you’d expect the typical girl for Lindsay to go out with. When they are together, they talk about art and the deeper meaning in life.”
Hayden Panettiere Shows Off Sex Appeal
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Television, Style, Photos,
Photographer Tyler Shields recently shot Heroes actress Hayden Panettiere in a sexed-up photo shoot containing machine guns and champagne (is she old enough for that yet?).
Okay, we really get it, Hayden—you’re hot! Do we really need the exhibitionist outfits and topless photos? I promise you that we realize you’re no longer that cute girl from Remember the Titans or Neutrogena commercials.
If you, however, are one of those drooling over the picture above, check out more pictures and a video (this is where the champagne comes in) after the jump!

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, Kanye West 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 Kanye West 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.

Mayer Talks About Aniston Split
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Music, Television, Break-ups,
Although he could have purposely left things vague, John Mayer made an unexpected move this weekend: He spoke to the media about Jennifer Aniston.
Up until recently, Mayer and his ex had decided to let their pictures do all of the talking. But the hounding photographers and the rumors of infidelity eventually forced the 30-year-old to crack.
And while I’m sure Jennifer wouldn’t have chosen to speak to a random paparazzo, she should be happy to know that the exasperated singer was frank, yet still kind.

Brangelina Shoos Johnny Depp Out of France
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Celebrity Babies, Pregnancies, Photos, Paparazzi Photos, Rumors,
When Johnny Depp ran to France to escape the paparazzi, I’m sure he never would have imagined having to leave his tranquil paradise. Unfortunately, the very private Pirates of the Caribbean star has come to face this nightmare upon Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s recent move to the beautiful country, which forced many of their die-hard paparazzo to follow suit.
Judging by recent pictures taken of the former heartthrob, I would say that it’s safe to say that he is upset at the large influx of cameras around southern France.
His solution? Pack up and move to England!

Angelina Jolie’s Belly Photos Were Fakes
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Pregnancies,
If you’re having a hard time distinguishing Angelina Jolie‘s face in this photo, there’s a reason: She isn’t there. Last week, pictures of the supposedly pregnant actress in her hospital room made their way across the internet. Unfortunately, the exposed belly shots were as misleading as Entertainment Tonight‘s delivery report.
Outlets wanting to believe that Angelina would make such an open gesture - after all this time - imagined seeing Brad Pitt and the Wanted star through that window. Unfortunately, it was another pregnant woman simply messing with their heads.
