Today’s top entertainment & celebrity stories:

• Linsday Lohan hospitalized – Lohan is having her appendix removed apparently… too bad she’s not going to rehab again
• Busta Rhymes arrested – The eccentric rapper was arrested for misdemeanor assault for allegedly beating some dude over a money dispute. Seriously, the guy looks like a brick house – you think all those steriods make you calm & passive – come on…
• OJ Simpson’s book money frozen – A federal judge has frozen the funds that OJ received from his book deal “If I did it”. The judge seems to be siding with Ron Goldman, as far as OJ trying to fraudulently hide the proceeds from the deal in a dummy corporation. Goldman is seeking some of the reported $1.1 million that OJ was given for the book deal, which was never released. This is a step in the right direction, considering Simpson has yet to pay off much (if any) of the $33 million civil judgement against him.
• Paris Hilton dropped – The owner of “Club Paris” has dropped Hilton as the spokesperson for the club after her failure to show up for promotional appearances & such. Wow, isn’t the name on the club enough?
