Schwarzenegger 'No Time' For Paris

California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has refused to be drawn into Paris Hilton's jail appeal, insisting he has more pressing matters to deal with.

The desperate socialite, who was sentenced to serve 45 days in jail earlier this month after violating terms of her 2006 drink-driving arrest, has teamed up with a pal to pioneer an online petition begging the politician for a pardon.

The appeal, which is addressed to Schwarzenegger, claims "the American public who support Paris are shocked, dismayed and appalled by how Paris has been the person to be used as an example that drunk driving is wrong."

Earlier this week, Schwarzenegger's press secretary insisted it was premature to comment on the case, but on Friday his boss hinted that Hilton's campaign was likely to end in disappointment.

Schwarzenegger said, "I've never got any request. But I have many more important things to think about." (source: sfgate.com)

Ex-BiG Brother Galilea surprises

The mexican super star Galilea Montijo is part of the everyday news in Latin America. This is because the huge mistake about a s*x tape taken to the porn actress Monique Fuentes, who is very similar to Galilea. Up to now, Galilea is hosting a TV show called "La hora de la papa" ("The hour of the meal"). There`s still a humor that she is the one! Do you think she is the one ?

Paris Hilton might not Spend more than 3 Weeks In Jail

Despite the socialite being told she would have to serve the full term handed to her last week, now officials have admitted she's likely to get out early.

The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department say state law means her sentence could be halved with good behaviour, and “chronic overcrowding” will also shave time off.

Meanwhile Paris still isn’t taking any chances, and is learning karate with a personal trainer so she can protect herself in the women’s only Century Regional Detention Facility in California.

A source tells The Sun, “She’s so scared about going to jail and will do everything she can to protect herself.

“Paris has been really shaken by the threats. People are saying there’s some tough girls inside who will target her.”(source: entertainmentwise.com/)

Michelle Wie Might Still Play Against man!

Last week instructor David Leadbetter pronounced that Michelle Wie was through - at least for the time being - playing in men's tournaments. But Golf World is reporting that Leadbetter may be wrong about that.

Golf World editor Ron Sirak reports that a Wie family spokesperson says no decisions have been made. And Sirak quotes a couple sources suggesting that Wie will at least be playing in the PGA Tour John Deer Classic, with an announcement expected within the next couple weeks. See the article for details.(Read More)

Paris Hilton asking Arnold Schwarzenegger for help

Helpless Paris Hilton is turning to California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger for help.

Hilton backers are circulating a petition on the Internet urging Schwarzenegger to pardon her. The petition notes that other celebrities have had much worse driving mishaps and avoided jail time.

“Paris Hilton did not hurt, injure or kill anyone or anything, and yet she must do jail time,” the petition reads.

The petition also praises the governor: “Let me first begin by saying that I grew up as a child enjoying all of your wonderful films. You really are the truly great action hero for our time. You are doing a great job in the great state of California.”

The governor’s office said it would consider the request but suggested that Hilton should not count on a last-minute reprieve.

“Typically, he only acts in very extraordinary circumstances,” spokesman Aaron McLear said, adding that pardons are usually considered only when a defendant has exhausted all other legal remedies. “Should we receive such a request, we will treat it no differently than any other of this nature.”(source : anythinghollywood.com)

"Jail Break"? Paris Hilton had a hard time in Jail!

Paris Hilton is so pampered she doesn't read her mail.

"I have people who do that for me," she told a judge.

Legal documents and traffic citations elude her.

"I just sign what people tell me to sign," she testified.

And based on statements from Hilton and publicist Elliot Mintz — who announced Sunday that he will no longer be working for her — she apparently took legal advice from Mintz but not her lawyers.

Facing a 45-day jail sentence — and perhaps her first brush with accountability — could be a reality check for Hilton. But regardless of how she handles it, it may make her more popular than ever.

"It will actually increase her star appeal in a very sick and demented way," said longtime publicist Michael Levine. "There's a segment of our society that's somehow engaged in the soap opera that is Paris Hilton, and this a very compelling plot line in the soap opera."

A judge ordered the socialite to report to a county jail in suburban L.A. by June 5 to serve 45 days for violating the terms of her probation in an alcohol-related reckless driving case. Her attorney has said he will appeal.

Mintz said in a statement Sunday that he and Hilton had parted ways over an apparent "misunderstanding she received from me regarding the terms of her probation."

He said Hilton was being truthful when she told a judge she believed — incorrectly, it turned out — that "it was O.K. for her to drive under certain circumstances" under the terms.(Yahoo News)

Justin's In With Britney & Madonna; Fergie Feeds Alanis; DMX Is A Wanted Man

Check out this brief rundown to bring you up to speed this morning — a quick heads up from your friends at MTV News.

Usher is hard at work on his new LP with producer Jermaine Dupri, and JD said the singer's new fiancee, Tameka Foster, has inspired at least one new song, "The Realest." "Most of the time with Usher it's about the magic," JD said. "For the first month or so of us being in the studio, it's all mostly conversation to drive me to that point where I go into the room and hear something that clicks. He was like, 'I got the realest woman in the world.' And within the hour, I heard what we should be saying in the hook, and he was like, 'Yeah, let's go.' " ...

T.I.'s next album is a battle between his two personas, but the grittier T.I.P. wins out when it comes to the first single. "Big Things Poppin' ", his collaboration with Mannie Fresh, hits radio next week. T.I. told us that the song "is really just me talking to these people who say things and can't back it up." ...

Pearl Jam
, Modest Mouse, the Roots, Snow Patrol, Amy Winehouse, Kings of Leon and Muse lead the lineup for Lollapalooza, set to hit Chicago's Grant Park August 3-5. ...

And a teary Haley Scarnato waved goodbye to "American Idol" last night — after 45 minutes of non-elimination action led by Jennifer Lopez, Akon, even Tony Bennett.

Quote of the Day: "I think every man wants to have that partner in life he can share the hottest moments with." — Usher


Here's what everyone else is talking about:

Justin Timberlake
has lined up a couple of big pop allies. People reports that he's keeping in touch with Britney, and told reporters he's rooting for his ex, even calling her a "great woman." Meanwhile, CBS News' Showbuzz reports that Madonna's rep has confirmed that she is working with JT — and Timbaland, of course — on her next album. ...

OK, Fergie's a good sport, we get it. A week after TMZ.com reported that she sent flowers to Alanis after seeing her "My Humps" parody, People says Ferg didn't do that at all. Instead, she sent Alanis a butt cake — no, not a bundt cake — with "Alanis, You're a genius. Love, Fergie" written in icing.

DMX was a no-show for court on Tuesday, and went on to miss his "be there or you're in trouble, mister" appearance on Wednesday. Now there are two warrants out for his arrest, White Plains' Journal News reports. X, who was scheduled to appear in court on a misdemeanor driving count, is now a wanted man in White Plains, New York, and neighboring Yonkers. A lawyer for the rapper said he's out of state, but making efforts to return.

Marc Anthony is another musician with legal trouble — and serves as a cautionary tale as tax day nears. The singer will pay $2.5 million in taxes and penalties for neglecting to file for five years, The Associated Press reports. J. Lo apparently handles her own business — and files her own taxes — so she not involved in the investigation.

Have no fear, TMZ is on the sex-tape beat, reporting that a video featuring "American Idol" semifinalist Olivia Mojica (who?) from season two's top 24 will be out soon. And rumors of an explicit video featuring "The Hills" star Lauren Conrad are not true, she insists, with "sources close to" LC claiming co-star Heidi Montag may have started the talk. What a pal.

And novelist Kurt Vonnegut, the American literary icon responsible for 20th century classics including "Slaughterhouse-Five" and "Cat's Cradle," died Tuesday night in New York, The New York Times reports. He was 84.
