Andy Dick arrested for sexually assaulting a minor

Andy Dick has finally grabbed the wrong pair of breasts. His drunken asshole antics got him arrested today after Andy walked out of a bar and pulled down a 17-year-old girl’s top and bra, according to the AP:

Police were called to the Buffalo Wild Wings in Murrieta at about 1:13 a.m. to investigate a report of “an intoxicated male″ urinating outside the bar and causing a disturbance, according to a police statement.
When they arrived, a 17-year-old girl told police that she was outside when Dick left the bar, walked up, “grabbed her tank top and bra and pulled them down and exposed her breasts,” the statement said.
Dick was identified by the teenager and a witness, police said. Marijuana and the drug Xanax were found his pants pockets during a search and he appeared “extremely intoxicated,” police said.

I’d say “extremely intoxicated” is an understatement. Judging by the mug shot above, Andy Dick probably thinks he’s on the planet sanctuary moon of Endor. Now where’s that Ewok he tried to fondle? And what is this strange tree he’s inside of with this bald, tattooed gentleman who wants to snuggle?*

*Please, join me in prayer that this man is the “shiv you in the abdomen” type. Amen.

Reggie Bush wants Kim Kardashian to lose weight

Thursday, July 17th, 2008

Kim Kardashian’s mom has been pushing for Kim to lose weight, and now so is her boyfriend Reggie Bush of the New Orleans Saints. Nothing like getting it from all sides. (Pun intended.) Page Six reports:

“He’s been pushing her to work out hard,” said our source. Sunday, Kardashian was overheard telling a friend at the opening of FUSE nightclub in Nashville that Bush made her run the dunes at Manhattan Beach in California.

“Run the dunes.” Amazing. I’m looking forward pics of Kim doing laps in her heels every time they go out to eat.

REGGIE: What’d you order, baby?
KIM: Seafood alfredo - and a whole cheesecake.
REGGIE: Day-amn! You’re running behind the car tonight.
KIM: But don′t you love my trunk? All this junk inside my trunk?
REGGIE: Woman, what I’d tell you ’bout that stereotypical bullshit? Reggie Bush is trying to save your life!

Britney Spears is in the studio, mostly playing with buttons

Britney Spears is in the studio working on her new album “with a team of top-notch producers and songwriters,” according to her manager Larry Rudolph. He also shared the following insights on Britney’s creative process with People:

“She’s like, ‘I want to go to the studio because I want to have some fun′ and that’s what it’s all about. There’s no schedule, there’s no agenda, there’s no anything. She is just enjoying herself.”
In the studio, “She’s giggly,” he added. “Some days she’ll go in and get nothing done. Some times she’ll just play around a little bit.”

In other words, Britney Spears plays with LEGOs on the couch while an entire team of professionals tries to make it look she can sing. Why do they even invite her to the studio? I′d just call her up one morning and say, “Hey, look, you’ve got an album coming out.” To which she′ll reply: “I love brownies!” And then we′ll watch it climb the charts. The End.
