Well, I say, it is one very busy week in the American Court houses. While flicking through a number of websites looking for some daily dish, I came across 7, yes SEVEN *holds up 7 fingers in shock*, stories relating to stars who are either up in court, have been getting into trouble with the law or having restraining orders written up. Now to get through all of them may take a while, so here are the biggest ones.
So the first up it's fo' shizzle my nizzle, it's the Snoop dizzle Dogg. Cordozar Calvin Broadus Jr (that is actually his real name, ha!) is being sued by a man called Richard Munroe claiming that the rapper hit him with a brass microphone while on stage at one of his concerts. Mr. Munroe mounted the stage during the gig (not a clever idea) and so a fight ensued with a number of security personal, clearly doing their job and protecting the rapper. In his evidence the fan claims that he was hit several times and suffered a number of injuries. When video footage was shown to the court it turned out it was The Game (who were supporting Snoop) who were in the middle of the tussle. Snoop rightly said “The best way for the injuries not to have occurred (was) for him to stay in his seat and enjoy the show like the rest of the fans.” Daaammm straight.
Next to take the hot seat is Richard Fliehr, the son of WWE legend Ric Flair. According to TMZ, the 21 year old was arrested for having narcotics in his car (heroin) and also driving while impaired. Jayson Williams, a former NBA star is in hospital after being arrested, and possibly tasered by cops, according to TMZ. A call was made by a woman, reporting that Williams was disturbing the peace and that alcohol and drugs were involved. It turns out that when the po po arrived there were empty bottles of prescription drugs in the room. Of course his lawyer said that his client was not suicidal. So he just took a whole bottle for the craic then, yeah? Another NBA star Derek Fisher issued a restraining order against some weirdo claiming that the two are married and have kids together. What's even more strange is that the lady, named Symone, has changed her second name to Fisher and also arrived up to his family home, frightening his real wife and kids. She's got issues.
