Fiona Apple Arrested in Texas for Possession
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Music, Drugs, Legal Issues, Mug Shots,
While Lady Gaga can publicly smoke marijuana on stage in the Netherlands, Fiona Apple gets thrown in the slammer for having hashish on her tour bus in Texas.
The 35 year-old singer's tour bus was halted at a border stop in Sierra Blanca, Texas, where authorities claim to have found hashish and marijuana in the vehicle. Apple - who is currently touring to promote her album The Idler Wheel... - was charged for possession and is currently being held at the Hudspeth County Jail.
Apple is scheduled to perform tonight in Austin, but there is no word yet as to whether or not she will have to cancel due to her legal issues.
Sierra Blanca hasn't been the most welcoming city of celebrity pot users, as Snoop Dogg, Willie Nelson, and Armie Hammer have all been previously arrested there for drug possession.

Lady Gaga praised marijuana as she lit up on stage in Amsterdam.
The 26-year-old singer told her fans she had cut down on drinking alcohol because she prefers smoking the drug and revealed it had been hugely beneficial to her music. According to The Sun newspaper, she said, "I want you to know it has totally changed my life and I've really cut down on drinking. It has been a totally spiritual experience for me with my music. It's like saying everybody needs to take a breath and it's going to be OK."
She also joked she was going to talk to President Barack Obama in a bid to make marijuana legal in America.
The eccentric singer recently had a tattoo inked into her newly-shaved head in front of a live audience as part of the launch for her new perfume Fame. Gaga had an image of a cherub wearing a crown etched into the back of her head at New York's Solomon R Guggenheim Museum and tattooist Mark Mahoney said the design is a nod to her Italian roots. The singer - whose real name is Stefani Germanotta - put on a number of live art installation features during the evening to launch the scent, which included the singer arriving at the venue inside a replica of her perfume bottle, inside which she was asleep on a bed.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Child Stars, Drugs, Photos, Oops Photos, Rumors,
Four pictures, which are supposed to be of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore's 18-year-old daughter show her topless and holding what appears to be a marijuana joint, reports website RadarOnline. The images are now being shopped around media outlets for purchase.
Last year, the teenager was cited for underage drinking in the Hollywood area. Tallulah's two sisters have also been involved in controversy. Her 20-year-old sister Scout was arrested last month in New York for underage drinking and using a fake ID card. In 1997, the oldest of the girls, Rumer was one of four people in a hotel room in Aberdeen, Maryland in the United States when police officers came in and arrested one of the group for marijuana possession. Rumer was questioned at the scene but was not arrested and was never charged in connection with the controversial incident.
Snoop Dogg Detained For Marijuana Possession
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Drugs, Legal Issues,
The "Drop it Like it's Hot" hitmaker reportedly arrived at Kjevic Airport in Kristiansand with the drugs, which were detected by a sniffer dog, and 224,500 kroner ($75,300) in cash, which is 196,000 kroner ($33,300) above the legal limit.
A customs official said the rapper was fined 52,000 kroner ($8,800) for the violations, and local laws state people carrying anything less than 15 grammes is merely punishable by a fine. Snoop - whose real name is Calvin Broadus - was in the country to perform at the Hove festival last night in the southern town of Kristiansand.
But it's not the first time this year that the 40-year-old rapper has been busted for drugs: he was arrested at Sierra Blanca, Texas in January at a border control checkpoint - the same one where country singer Willie Nelson was busted in 2010 - when a sniffer dog found marijuana on his tour bus.

The 29-year-old and and boyfriend Cy Waits were initially pulled over by Las Vegas police when suspected marijuana smoke was seen blowing out of their car.

Angelina Jolie may be known for his tattoos, love of daggers and vials of blood, but the actress isn’t the only one in her family with a rebellious past.

UPDATE: Michael has been suspended for 3 months by USA Swimming. He’s also lost his Kellogg sponsorship.
Although he was previously scheduled to celebrate with the Super Bowl attendees in Tampa, Michael Phelps spent this weekend addressing a celebration from last fall. (Note to future Olympic superstars: There’s no such thing as a “private” party with college students.)

More Tom Cruise Gossip
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Movies, Rumors,
Remember when Tom Cruise was a truly A-list star, Hollywood royalty, and possibly the hunkiest hunk around? Now, he’s a type of weed. And yes, I am talking about that kind of weed.
According to gossip, Cruise has a big chip on his shoulder because a medical marijuana facility is marketing a certain type of the drug as “Tom Cruise Purple,” even using his likeness to push the product. If the smoke gets people half as high as Cruise seemed when he jumped on Oprah’s couch, it’s sure to become a hit.
