Mischa Barton was photographed breaking down in her car after she injured her wrist by shutting it in a car door a short while ago. Her publicist said she had “re-injured” it, but the bandage was on her other wrist a few weeks ago, so that’s a bogus excuse. Janet Charlton reports that she’s so distraught over her lackluster career and bad relationship with Cisco Adler that she’s threatened to kill herself - and her dog too!

“Mischa is miserable since she left the O.C. She feels like her life is over and everything is going downhill.” revealed an insider. “She feels lost since she left the show and started pestering her boyfriend Cisco Adler for a commitment. She threatened to leave if he didn’t give her a ring. He wasn’t ready to get engaged so he stalled by buying her a “promise” ring. That satisfied her for a few weeks, but she started acting crazy and hyper-emotional. “She acts like she has nothing to live for.” Cisco couldn’t take the drama and told her “We’re better off apart.” He told friends “She’s too crazy for me.” That really set her off - she threatened to commit suicide and even threatened to kill their dog! She was seen sobbing in her car with wrist bandages. Whether she actually cut herself isn’t known. “Cisco feels bad so he’s pretending to work things out with her so he can let her down easy. He’s hoping she’ll come to her senses and won’t do anything violent or vindictive. But he wants out.

When a gossip source quotes an insider I always suspect that they’re making shit up, so I don’t know if I believe this. Cisco did give Misca a promise ring, so Charlton is working with that news and may or may not have a source for this information. It sounds way too dramatic for Mischa, who always came off as thoughtful and smart to me in interviews, albeit a bit flighty.

Paris Hilton is the new poster girl against drunk driving. Stop laughing, I’m not kidding!
She has a full page P.S.A. in Seventeen magazine.

Good job Paris! While this is a good cause, I wonder how seriously the message will be taken by teens. Paris doesn’t have the best track record when it comes to alcohol related incidents.

Lindsay Lohan, the intended host of the World Music Awards, was met with boos whenever she went on stage last night. She was so upset that she tripped and fell down some stairs backstage. She stopped hosting about half way through after her accident, but that didn’t stop her from partying it up afterwards:

It was the night from hell for Lindsay Lohan at the World Music Awards.

She was visibly upset when the audience booed her every time she took to the stage, she fell down the stairs and was forced to abandon her role as main host of the ceremony.

The 20-year-old actress pulled out halfway through after tumbling down a flight of stairs backstage.

An onlooker at the awards in Earls Court revealed: “Lindsay was devastated, she came off stage and fell, and so she had to give up. It looked incredibly painful.”

Her role was from then on taken up by the individual awards presenters. Luckily, she was not seriously hurt - she was well enough to go partying afterwards, the only sign of injury a blue sticking plaster on a finger.

It seems like the Brits are fond of booing and that it’s more common there, judging from what I’ve seen of their sessions of Parliament, but I would like to see footage of Lohan getting booed. Did anyone see the Awards and can they verify the booing? The highlight video that was posted on The Daily Mail website did not include clips of Lindsay hosting, and nothing has hit YouTube yet.

Of course she went out partying afterwards. That always seems to take priority over her work obligations, no matter how obscenely paid she is.

Almost two months ago BBC car show Top Gear presenter Richard Hammond suffered a serious injury in a risky car stunt gone wrong. Hammond was airlifted to hospital after a high speed crash in a souped up jet car. Critics claimed that Hammond was not properly trained to drive the car, which was going 288 mph when it crashed, and that only a jet pilot with split second reflexes should have been behind the wheel.

The beloved presenter has fully recovered from what was initially thought to be permanent brain injury, and has even passed extensive testing required to drive again!

ECSTATIC Richard Hammond got back behind the wheel of a car yesterday for the first time since his horror crash and said: “I will remember this day for the rest of my life”.

He took his wife Mindy for a spin in his Morgan sports car after being given the go-ahead by doctors to drive again.

It was less than two months since the Mirror columnist and Top Gear presenter suffered a serious brain injury in the 288mph jet car smash as he filmed a stunt for the show.

After yesterday’s drive Richard said: “Now I feel more like me.

“As I got into the driving seat it felt like I was back where I belonged.

“It was wonderful to be away from everything, being able to tootle around the lanes in the foothills of the Malverns in Gloucestershire on a sunny Sunday afternoon.”

Richard, 36, nicknamed the Hamster by Top Gear sidekicks Jeremy Clarkson and James May, added: “During the last two months there have a number of moments I will never forget and this is one of them.

“I have really missed driving and the freedom that comes with it. I didn’t realise how much until today. Mindy was a bit damp-eyed. She has been my driver for the last few weeks and I have been dependent on her. Now I’m looking forward to taking her out for a drive and a nice lunch this week.”

Richard had to pass two hours of complicated mental reasoning, memory and problem-solving tests before he won back his driving licence.

He said: “It felt like passing my test again. Mindy was delighted.

“Of course, it means I can get back to work but it means so much personally as well.”

Top Gear will start shooting for a delayed new season in January, and it is thought that they will tone down their thrill-seeking antics.

Here’s a news segment about Richard’s crash. The title suggest that the crash is included, but it’s not:

I don’t know if this ruins the movie for me or not, but I was really looking forward to catching even a silght glimpse of Daniel Craig’s goods. Judi Dench says he has a monster c0ck, and that’s a good enough recommendation for the film for me.

Now the news is that Craig’s big member won’t be making an appearance in the film at all, and that he used a pen1s double. What a shame.

JAMES Bond star Daniel Craig was so nervous over his sexy bedroom scenes in new movie Casino Royale that he used STAND-INS.

Daniel, 38, admitted: “I had stunt men all the way.

“Stunt p***s? I’ve got four or five.”

But the blond 007 was determined to do his own stunts outside the bedroom.

He revealed: “I got hurt every day.

“All the stunt guys are as hard as teak — I can’t show any pain in front of them.” The movie premieres next week in London.

Craig suffered several mishaps on set: a prickly heat rash, knocked out teeth, and most recently damage to his nether regions. It’s so big that Craig couldn’t get out of the way in time durnig a whipping scene and took one right to the ‘nads:

In the scene, Bond is stripped and tied to chair before being whipped by baddie Le Chiffre, played by Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen.

However a blunder in the measurements of the whip and chair that Craig sat on, meant the end of the whip made contact with his privates when it should have only hit the chair.

He said: “I just jumped like eight feet in the air shouting ‘Stop!’ and left the room rather hastily.”

However, Craig knew that playing Bond would be no picnic physically so after a dose of painkillers he carried on filming.

He joked: “If you don’t get bruised playing Bond you’re not doing it properly.”

Casino Royale opens in the states on November 17th.

Denise Richards got in a heated argument with a photographer at a hotel near where she is shooting her new movie, “Blonde and Blonder,” with Pamela Anderson in Vancouver, British Columbia. She stormed up to his hotel room and ended up having a hissy fit and throwing his laptop off the balcony. People reports that an 80 year-old woman in a wheelchair was passing by on the ground floor at the time and got hit in the arm with the falling computer. She is said to have suffered only minor injuries and to have been treated at the scene.

Lainey’s gossip reports that she spoke to the photographer and that two women were injured, including a 91 year-old, but People says that it was just the one:

The River Rock Casino where Denise and Pam are shooting Blonde and Blonder – huge drama, a small village of witnesses, police are on site RIGHT NOW (6:30pm PST)!!!

A couple of photographers are taking photos from a balcony overlooking the concourse where Denise was getting ready for her scene. She sees them, she storms up the stairs, a heated exchange ensues, she’s overheard cussing at them, an eye and ear witness tells me he heard the word “cocksucker”, they’re cussing back at her… and then!

And then!

She grabs one of their laptops and THROWS IT OVER THE BALCONY!!!

The laptop goes flying and it HITS AN OLDER LADY IN THE ARM!!!

This was observed by everyone on the set not to mention many, many casino patrons…

I was the only one to speak to the photographer involved in the incident tonight. Rik Fedyck is a freelance photographer in Vancouver.

He confirmed to me and to CTV news exclusively that Denise Richards stormed up the stairs at the River Rock Casino and Resort on Wednesday late afternoon and after a heated exchange, grabbed his laptop and threw it off the balcony.

He also told me that two elderly women were struck. According to Rik, one of the women was 91 years old.

Yep. I can see getting annoyed at some photographers, but throwing a laptop off a balcony? That just goes to show what kind of temper she has.

Richie Sambora has recently said that he wants to start a family with Denise Richards and that he wants more children. The two neighbors started a rebound relationship after breaking up with their respective partners this spring. I wonder if this latest incident will make him rethink his plans?

Look at how nasty Denise looks in these candids taken on set on 11/4. You could see how she would go off like that.

Update Photos removed at request of photographer, who may have had his laptop destroyed for these pictures, but that’s speculation on my part.

A paparazzo hit Lohan’s vehicle from behind after a high-speed chase yesterday. This is the third car accident for Lindsay involving photographers. She was broadsided by a photographer’s minivan a year and a half ago, and she hit another car while trying to outrun photographers a year ago. Neither incident seems to have been Lohan’s fault.

Sources tell us a photographer chasing the 20-year-old actress rear-ended her black Mercedes near the corner of Olympic and La Cienega in L.A. around 2 a.m. yesterday.

“She was apparently able to drive a short distance from the crash,” says a source. “But she later pulled over and called a friend to pick her up.”

Lohan’s rep, Leslie Sloane Zelnik, confirmed the accident, but had no information on the “Bobby” star’s condition or whether she had filed a police report.

Earlier in the evening, Lohan was videotaped outside the hot spot Hyde, sitting in her car while talking to a “mystery man,” according to TMZ.com. “La Lohan appeared a little upset and teary-eyed under a hooded shirt” before “speeding off, alone,” the gossip site said.

People fear that Lohan is going to end up like Princess Diana, but there’s little chance of that since Diana was so beloved.

Lohan told Oprah yesterday that she hates her party girl image, and that she doesn’t think it’s a crime to go dancing with her friends. She was also defended by “Bobbie” director Emilio Estevez, who praised her professionalism on set, and said that she’ll never come close to partying as much as his brother.

Is Steve Irwin fair dinkum game now that he’s been dead over a month? Controversial liberal talkshow host Bill Maher and the creators of South Park think so. Maher donned a tasteless Halloween costume featuring a red wig and sleevless khaki shirt with a stingray’s tail sticking out of his chest complete with fake blood. It’s a clever idea for a costume but it seems like a cruel stunt for a famous person to pull so soon after Irwin’s death.

Meanwhile South Park has parodied Irwin’s accidental death by showing the daredevil crocodile hunter as a Halloween party guest with a stingray’s barb sticking out of his chest. Irwin’s widow Terri is said to be devastated by the episode and hopes her young children never see it:

Terri, 42, is said to be worried that Irwin’s children BINDI, eight, and BOB, two, will see the show, which portrays the late star with a stingray sticking out of his chest less than two months after he died. Last night (27OCT06), Australian TV channel SBS said it is planning to air the episode in Australia next year (07) or in 2008. It has already been shown in the US. A friend of Irwin’s widow says, “Terri is devastated Steve is being mocked in such a cruel way. Her worry is that Bindi and Bob will see it and break down. “Steve had as big a sense of humour as anyone, but this goes too far too soon.” British TV naturalist MARK AMEY, 44, who worked alongside Irwin, backed the sentiments, saying, “My message to people is don’t watch the show. It’s distasteful s**t. Let’s hope none of Steve’s fans who keep poisonous animals happen to find the addresses of those behind the show and leave them a nice surprise.”

Irwin is shown in South Park as a guy at Satan’s Halloween party who is mistaken for someone wearing a costume. In this clip, which I’m pretty sure is the one that’s referred to in the story, Irwin is chastized by Satan for daring to mock the accident so soon after it happened. He then says he’s the real Steve Irwin and Satan kicks him out for not having a costume. That’s obnoxious, but that’s how South Park is and they’re basically admitting that it’s tasteless.

Irwin was parodied in South Park while he was alive (link leads to video on YouTube) in an episode that aired in the second season.

Sheryl Crow needs to do us all a favor and tell us the name of the tanning salon that did this to her. It looks like they forced her to wear a baseball cap during the tanning session, and sprayed her with four “4″s in a row. Then they bra-jacked her. What a shame. Please Sheryl, get the word out and tell us the name of this salon. We don’t want this bad tan job to happen to anyone else.

There is still some confusion over who hit whom in the car-motobike crash involving Angelina’s convoy and whether there were one or two motorcyclists involved. Some reports say it was a couple hit by the paparrazi, others say it was just one 19 year-old guy hit by Angelina’s driver. Both claim that no one was seriously hurt.

It is even being called a hit and run because Jolie’s car, which by most reports was the one which ran a red light and caused the crash, supposedly drove off immediately afterwards. If this is true Angelina’s driver could be charged with a crime under Indian law.

There’s even a story that Angelina’s driver was in a second collision with a motorcycle, but this story seems to be based on confusion over the conflicting reports of the single incident.

Indian police have increased security for Jolie as a result of all the craziness surrounding the actress. Let’s hope their guys are kinder and gentler than the mofo she has running her security force now, although basically anyone would be nicer than that guy.

Here are more pictures of Angelina reading “Crimes of War” calmly in the back of her speeding vehicle. Commentor Marines all the Way, who is an actual Marine serving in Iraq, says that the book sucks and does not portray war accurately in his experience. Pictures [via]
