Sean Bean

Sean Bean walked into a bar and calmly ordered a drink over the weekend – minutes after being stabbed in the arm during an altercation over a topless model.
The 52-year old actor was involved in an ugly brawl outside The Hill Bar and Brasserie in North West London on Sunday when a passer-by made disparaging comments about his female companion – 22-year old Italian Playboy model April Summers.
Despite being left with bruises to his face and nasty slash wound on his arm, the ‘Sharpe’ star refused to seek medical attention, opting instead to re-enter the bar and continue his evening with April, whose real name is Nadia Foster.

“Sean is a regular here and we’ve never had any problems before,” a staff member at the bar later told British paper the Daily Mail. “He was with a very attractive woman and an incident occurred outside the bar.
“He came in with a cut arm and a bruise on his eyebrow. We saw to his injuries with a first aid kit. He seemed OK and wanted to have another drink.”
According to witnesses, Bean – who has been married four times – was stabbed with a broken glass after stepping outside with Summers for a cigarette.
The model – who lives close to the bar – has since described the unsavoury incident as ‘a private matter.’
Bean’s most recent marriage to Georgina Sutcliffe came to an acrimonious end in 2010, two-years after they exchanged vows at Marylebone Registry Office in London.

Elizabeth Hurley

Elizabeth Hurley, the British actress who turned 46 on Friday (10th June 2011), has been granted adivorce from husband Arun Nayar, reports E! Online. Hurley was granted a decree by a London court today, effectively ending the couple's four year marriage.

The actress split from the Indian textile magnate last December, shortly after speculation arose that she was having an affair with Australian cricket player Shane Warne. At the time, the actress tweeted, "Not a great day. For the record, my husband Arun & I separated a few months ago. Ourclose family & friends were aware of this", before adding, "'Painful, sad days. Arun and I separated for private reasons but Ftr he has been a great father to our son Damian and will always be in his life". The couple first began dating back in 2003 and tied the knot in March 2007 during two lavish ceremonies. They first married in Sudely Castle near Winchcombe and then at a palace in Jodhpur, India. Neither individual was present for today's court hearing, where Judge Penny Cushing noted that the marriage had "broken down irretrievably" and would be dissolved within six weeks.
Elizabeth Hurley is set to begin shooting the action-horror movie 'High Midnight' about a sheriff who is forced to team-up with an obsessed Victorian vampire hunter. The film also features Vincent D'Onofrio and RACHAEL LEIGH COOK.

Benjamin Millepied

For Natalie Portman, the baby is pretty much the icing on the cake.
On Tuesday, the 30-year-old actress welcomed her first child, according to People magazine. She had the baby boy (name yet to be revealed) with her fiance, dancer and choreographer Benjamin Millepied.
It's been quite a year for Portman. Her critically acclaimed turn as a talented but deeply damaged ballerina in "Black Swan" led her to win her first Oscar -- for best actress -- in February. "Black Swan" is also where she met Millepied, a 34-year-old French principal dancer for the New York City Ballet.
She gave Millepied a special mention when she accepted her Oscar, gesturing to her belly as she said he's "now given me my most important role of my life."

Portman's Hollywood roles still persist. She starred in the comedies "No Strings Attached" and "Your Highness," the comic book flick "Thor" and the drama "The Other Woman," all of which came out after "Black Swan."
Often tight-lipped about her personal life, Portman hasn't shared when -- or if -- she and Millepied plan to exchange vows. In December, after announcing her pregnancy and engagement, she told Entertainment Weekly, "I am indescribably happy and feel very grateful to have this experience."
What's next for Portman? The short answer: It's anyone's guess. Backstage at the Oscars, ABC News asked her how motherhood might change her career.
"I really can't say what's going to happen," she said. "I have no idea what to expect. It's just accepting that I have no idea."

Joss Stone

It's been a dangerous week for singer Joss Stone and "Game of Thrones" star Sean Bean. Stone was the target of an alleged murder conspiracy, while Bean reportedly survived a street attack in London. Brian Lynch and Phil Noto commented on these topics, while Dan Slott reflected on seeing Spider-Man and Bill Clinton in the same room.
Check out how that felt, along with which creator thinks he should have been invited to a "Green Lantern" screening and why Brian Michael Bendis doesn't hate DC comics after the jump.

Tori Spelling

Tori Spelling’s mom Candyis set to sell her famous Los Angeles mansion, considered the most expensive home in America, to British heiress Petra Ecclestone.
Built by her late husband Aaron Spelling, the legendary TV producer, Candy’s 57,000-square foot Holmby Hills sprawl, known as “The Manor,” has been listed at $150 million. Its sale price was not disclosed.

Ecclestone, who will marry entrepreneur James Stunt later this summer, plans to split her time between London (where she owns a $90 million six-story house) and Los Angeles. She is the daughter of Formula One racing billionaire Bernie Ecclestone.
“The Manor” was completed in 1991. The French chateau-style residence contains a bowling alley, china room, flower-cutting room, beauty salon, and several gift-wrapping rooms.
There’s also a library of Aaron Spelling’s bound scripts for his shows, ranging from “Charlie’s Angels” and “Dynasty” to “Beverly Hills, 90210″ and “Melrose Place.”

Betty White

At the age of 89, Betty White remains as spry and wickedly funny as ever, so who better to give advice on longevity? On Monday, the "Hot in Cleveland" star and talk-show favorite stopped by "The Late Show" to deliver the top-10 list: "Betty White Tips for Living a Long and Happy Life."
For the most part, the list played into White's image as a slightly batty but ribald older lady (No 5: Schedule a nightly appointment with Dr. Johnnie Walker. No. 4: Take some wheatgrass, soy paste and carob. Toss in the garbage and cook yourself a big-ass piece of pork.)

This being late-night television, there were also some more topical jabs, such as No. 6: Avoid tweeting photos of your private parts -- aimed at Rep. Anthony Weiner but certainly a good rule of thumb for the rest of us.
But the biggest laughs of the night came at the expense of Miami Heat star LeBron James, whose once-vaunted image has taken a serious beating of late. "Never dwell on past mistakes. Especially you, LeBron," White declared, a dig at the forward's lackluster performance in the NBA Finals.
Losing to the Mavericks is one thing, but getting trash-talked by one of the "Golden Girls" -- all in the same week?
James better start the damage control.

Fran Drescher

"This show is more grounded in a real place," says Fran Drescher when comparing her newest TV series, Happily Divorced— debuting Wednesday at 10:30 p.m. ET on TV Land— with her long-running '90s hit The Nanny, which was "like a Cinderella story."
That "real place" Drescher talks about is similar to her own post-divorce relationship with ex-husband (and the show's co-executive producer) Peter Jacobson. Of course, says Drescher, some liberties are taken in the show for "more conflict and comedy."
The biggest difference is that in the series, Drescher's husband, played by John Michael Higgins, wakes up in the middle of the night with an anxiety attack and tells her that he's gay. In real life, it was Drescher who left her husband, spurred on by what she calls "a garden-variety midlife crisis." It wasn't until after their divorce that Jacobson told her he was living as a gay man (she already knew he was bisexual, she says) in New York.
By then, Drescher had already dealt with her "midlife crisis" and battled cancer. "I needed to get out of the marriage to find myself," she says. "It's been a very worthwhile journey, quite frankly for him, as well."
Drescher's post-cancer journey included many "silver linings," she says. "You climb out of the depths of despair, and I'm the type of person that needs to have control over something and turning pain into purpose and lemon into lemonades has been very healing. It's given me a depth and a meaning and a resonance to my life that I otherwise didn't have."
That included writing the best-selling book Cancer Schmancer; starting the Cancer Schmancer Movement; being instrumental in getting the Gynecologic Cancer Education and Awareness Act passed in Washington; getting appointed a public policy envoy for women's health issues by the U.S. State Department and continuing to "fight the good fight on behalf of improving greater health."

It's clear that when the Queens native, whose big break came in a part in the 1977 hitSaturday Night Fever, puts her mind to something, she makes it happen.
Take her next project, a children's book, Being Wendy, due out in November. She wrote the book after realizing she should "leverage" her new fan base of children who have discovered her by watching The Nanny reruns on TV Land and Nick at Nite. Another book is already in the works.
"I always had the big picture in my head," says Drescher. "My mom said to me — I think it was in junior high — 'You don't need to take typing; you're going to have a secretary.' That's the kind of support that made a big difference to me. I never wanted to disappoint them."
Even her B-plan, hairdressing, was ambitious. "I'd dropped out of college because I started getting work as an actress, it was splitting my attention," says Drescher. "I went in the evening to beauty school to become a hairdresser if acting didn't work out and that was the backup plan. Even when I went to hairdressing school, I wasn't thinking of working in some little shop somewhere, I imagined I would eventually become like Vidal Sassoon."
But even with her success, Drescher still has a long to-do list.
"In my life, not only my career. I'd love to live in Europe for a year and become fluent in a foreign language. I'd love to run for an elected office in politics at some point. I have another book in my head; these last 10 years need to be put into a book. … I think about adopting a child. … I can afford the help."
Sounds like The Nanny might soon need a nanny.

Conan O Brien

Conan O'Brien's graduation speech Saturday at Dartmouth College arrived too late to be considered in The Atlantic Wire's 2011 Commencie award voting, but had it been eligible, there's little doubt that O'Brien's speech, would have been recognized as this year's most sobering depiction of the real world. A look back at two other O'Brien commencement speeches--one delivered at New York City's Stuyvesant High School and the other at Harvard--show that while O'Brien the talk show may have called on viewers to reject cynicism when he left NBC, Conan the commencement speaker has a more jaundiced world view.

• "My first job as your commencement speaker is to illustrate that life is not fair. For example, you have worked tirelessly for four years to earn the diploma you’ll be receiving this weekend, and Dartmouth is giving me the same degree for interviewing the fourth lead in Twilight.  Deal with it."
• "Another example that life is not fair: if it does rain, the powerful rich people on stage get the tent. Deal with it."
• "You parents must be patient because it is indeed a grim job market out there. And one of the reasons that it’s so tough finding work is that aging baby boomers refuse to leave their jobs...Trust me on this."
• "I’m here to tell you that, though you should not fear failure, you should do your very best to avoid it."
• "Nietzsche famously said 'Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.”' But what he failed to stress is that it almost kills you. Disappointment stings and, for driven, successful people like yourselves it is disorienting."
• "What Nietzsche should have said is  'Whatever doesn’t kill you, makes you watch a lot of Cartoon Network and drink mid-price Chardonnay at 11 in the morning. '"

• "It’s a proven fact that as you get older, your brain shrinks and you get dumber. This is why you have to explain to your parents how a TiVo works and they have to explain to your grandparents how a cat works. Even I’ve gotten a lot dumber. I graduated from Harvard 20 years ago, and I am currently reading at the 6th grade level. If anyone here spoils the ending of Charlotte’s Web, I am so going to freak."
• "Believe it or not, I actually do have some real advice for you. I don’t want to freak you guys out, but twenty five years ago, I could have been any one of you. I went to a public high school, and I was a bright, ambitious, hard working kid who wanted more than anything to go to a good college. The only problem is, I was much more interested in succeeding than in really learning."
• "[L]ife and the choices I made have changed me in a thousand ways. None of it would have happened if I had rigidly kept my eyes on the prize and decided with great determination to follow my dream, because I didn’t have the slightest idea what my dream was when I was 18. It had to find me."
• "What I’m asking you to consider is that the next four years don’t have to be just a stepping stone. You are very bright, impressive young people..[A]ll I’m asking you to do in college is to take a moment every now and then, breathe, look around you. If something intrigues you, take a small chance....It could be bio-physics, it could be medicine, could be puppetry, could be ultimate fighting, beekeeping, government, or whatever the hell it is Ryan Seacrest does."

• "As you leave these gates and reenter society, one thing is certain: everyone out there is going to hate you."
• "I took a lot of criticism [when Late Night debuted in 1993] some of it deserved, some of it excessive. And it hurt like you wouldn't believe. But I'm telling you all this for a reason. I've had a lot of success and I've had a lot of failure. I've looked good and I've looked bad. I've been praised and I've been criticized. But my mistakes have been necessary. Except for Wilson's House of Suede and Leather. That was just stupid."
• "I've dwelled on my failures today because, as graduates of Harvard, your biggest liability is your need to succeed."
• "[S]uccess is a lot like a bright, white tuxedo. You feel terrific when you get it, but then you're desperately afraid of getting it dirty, of spoiling it in any way. I left the cocoon of Harvard, I left the cocoon of Saturday Night Live, I left the cocoon of The Simpsons. And each time it was bruising and tumultuous. And yet, every failure was freeing, and today I'm as nostalgic for the bad as I am for the good."
• "Let me leave you with one last thought: If you can laugh at yourself loud and hard every time you fall, people will think you're drunk."

Jennifer Love Hewitt

Despite the rampant Internet rumors that Jennifer Love Hewitt was a strong contender to assume the role ofSVU's new female lead for the 13th season, Deadline.comreports Hewitt is no longer in contention for the part.
Hewitt, 32, was said to have been strongly considered to appear as a semi-replacement for Mariska Hargitay, 47, when she scales back her role on the series in the back half of season 13.

While Hewitt may not be top of mind, Deadline reportsSVU producers are actively searching for an actor to fillChristopher Meloni's shoes, and are considering adding a second female detective to team up with Hargitay's Det. Olivia Benson.
Despite the recent casting shakeups, there is one SVU star anxious to get back to work when the series resumes production in July.
"I've just locked in my new SVU deal," Ice-T, who appears as Det. Fin Tutuola, tweeted Friday. "So I'll officially be back for the next 2 years at least. DONE."

Darren Criss

Darren Criss was pulled off stage by a fan during a recent performance, illustrating that while "Glee" costar Dianna Agronmight like girls, at least one girl likes this boy just a little too much.
Criss, on tour with "Glee Live! In Concert," fell into the crowd Thursday night in Washington, D.C., after kneeling down to shake hands with a front-row fan during the curtain call after "Somebody to Love." He quickly jumped back on stage.
"To the lady who pulled me off the stage and into the pit tonight: if I ever see you on a stage... keep your wits about ya. Love, Darren :) !," the actor said on Twitter, adding, "btw I'm lucky I didn't hit my head on the gate in front of this lady. Seriously close call tonight... Like, please don't kill me. I'm nice."

On "Glee," Criss plays Blaine Anderson, a member of competing show choir the Warblers and onscreen boyfriend to Chris Colfer's Kurt Hummel.
Agron raised eyebrows over the weekend when she donned a "Likes Girls" T-shirt during Saturday's show in Toronto. The actress explained later on her blog that she was showing support for the girls and women in her life, and also for the LGBT community.

San Antonio

There’s nothing better than a beauty queen fight to start our work week. This one went all the way to aCourt judgment in favor of Miss (sic) San Antonio who claimed she’d been unfarily stripped of her title because of her weight and her public appearances schedule.
So much for all those beauty pageant assurances that these contests are based more on leadership, poise, and accomplishment than they are on traditional western notions of beauty.
Weight indeed.
Do you see anything in Miss (sic) San Antonio’s photo that leads you to believe she should be rushed over to a Jenny Craig or Weight WatchersEmergency Ward or triaged for Lap-Band Surgery?

But I digress.
After Miss (sic) San Antonio’s crown was restored to her by court fiat, the Miss (sic) Texas Pageant negotiated a resolution that could have saved everyone the time, money, and anguish associated with court proceedings. The San Antonio franchise  restored the crown to Ramirez and assigned another title to the runner-up who was installed in her place during court proceedings.
That runner-up has now been de-crowned as Miss (sic) San Antonio andre-crowned Miss (sic) Bexar County.
Aren’t you glad that’s all been cleared up? You can carry on with your day now.

QVC

Known for selling her sweaters and jeans with plenty of bling, sparkle and shine, QVC’s Jeanne Bice passed away on Friday at the age of 71.

The passing of a woman known for her bubbly personality and colorful clothing was a surprise to many at QVC. Former QVC host Patti Reilly, who often hosted with Bice on-air and remained great friends off-air, went to her Facebook page and remarked, “I love and adore you Jeanne. You have been a blessing in my life. I hope they have rhinestones in Heaven. Sparkle away, my beautiful friend!”
In addition, current host Jacque Gonzalez went to Facebook describing her difficulty when first hearing the news. “I wasn't sure if I was going to go on air after hearing about Jeanne Bice's passing - but our crew helped hold me together - Thank you. I kept thinking of Jeanne - who would have told me to go out and do my job with a smile. Thanks Jeanne - for always believing in me.”
On the Quacker Factor website, a moving note is displayed describing Bice’s beliefs that resonated with so many shoppers or Quackers. It reads, “Jeanne chose to love.  She loved what she did-creating Quacker Factory clothes, with 'sparkle and shine'.  Clothes that made people Happy.”

It goes on to say, “But most of all-above everything else-Jeanne loved the Quackers.  'They come as customers, they stay as friends,'  she said over and over.”
Every show was unique with Bice and her QVC host. Proudly wearing her signature headband, Bice would interact with viewers with a Quack Quack instead of hello. Her conversations were intimate, unique and genuine. Even if viewers didn’t like her clothes, they enjoyed her company.
On her site, fans are reminded that the, “most important lesson was that Jeanne Bice taught the world how to laugh and smile.  She taught us how to look at the good side of things.  She taught us to Dream.  She taught us to Believe.   She taught us to love ourselves; who we are, just as we are.”

Jessica Simpson

Papa Joe, the father of Jessica Simpson is said to be upset with her fiance Eric Johnson over his employment status. An earlier item from Jessica Warren reveals Joe is unhappy that Eric is unemployed.

Dad is worried the husband might use his daughter, according to the item from celebrity weekly magazine In Touch.

Earlier this month it was revealed that Jessica is looking forward to the wedding and has been practicing her parenting skills on fiancé Eric Johnson's pet pooch.

The 30-year-old singer, whose own dog Maltipoo died in 2009 after being snatched by a coyote, said that it is like having a new dog all over again.

"His name's Bentley, he's an Airedale terrier [and] he's adorable," she told People magazine. "He's the best dog. I love him to death. "At first he would growl at me, and now he comes and snuggles up to me," she said. "It's like I have a brand new dog."

And she added that they will be looking to extend their doggy family even more. "Eventually, I think we want to get something," she said. "Whoever Bentley will get along with."

Dianna Agron

you guys, is Dianna Agron gay?! She's on Glee, you know, so there's that. But the really big clue came last night on tour in Toronto, when the 25 year old who plays a high-school cheerleader on TV was wearing a T-shirt that said ... LIKES GIRLS.
Well, there you go. So now rumors are swirling that Kurt and Santana aren't the only gay kids in the Glee Club. (Is that on the show or in real life? I always get confused ...)
Anyway, Agron was quick to hop on her blog, Dianna Agron, but you can call me Charlie, today with what I found to be an incredibly shocking revelation that I don't think most people would have ever imagined possible, and I'm still sitting here trying to comprehend it all ...
... and that is that Agron writes some really really really long blog posts.

Seriously, she's even wordier than I am. There, I said it. It's out in the open now. I tried reading all the way through and stopped at the line about how the excitement the Glee cast absorbs from all their fans' balls something about adrenaline reaching all-time levels something something. If this acting thing does not work out for her she could easily become a lawyer or one of those people who write the contraindications on prescription drug packages.
She said a LOT of things in her blog post, I'm almost positive of it, I'm just not smart or attentive enough to figure out what it was ... and plus all I really wanted to find out was if she's gay.
So, dusting off some of my former Cliff Notes skills, I scanned Agron's treatise for some key words to uncover the meaning behind the T-shirt and Agron's sexuality. And this is what I found:
Yesterday, during our second show, Instead of wearing my usual shirt during “Born This Way” I decided to wear one that said “Likes Girls.”
No, I am not a lesbian, yet if I were, I hope that the people in my life could embrace it whole-heartedly.
Last night, I wanted to do something  to show my respect and love for the GLBT community. Support that people could actually see.
And that is the end of that.

Colin Farrell

Jessica Biel

Insiders have revealed that Justin Timberlake's ex-girlfriend Jessica Biel and her 'Total Recall' co-star, and Irish bad boy Colin Farrell, may be more than just friends.

The couple reportedly got close to each other during the filming of the remake of the action flick in Toronto.

"She's completely over Justin, she's having fun being single and thinks Colin is a blast. They've been hanging out between takes and Colin's suggested they go out after work," the Daily Mail quoted a source as saying.

"Jessica loves Colin's accent and personality," the source added.

Biel, 29, had split from Timberlake in March, following which she struck up a friendship with actorGerard Butler during the filming of 'Playing The Field'.

Monica Bellucci

Monica and Vincent married in 1999. The Italian actress insists their marriage is as strong as ever, explaining she and Vincent are as in love as they’ve ever been.
“I ask myself everyday, 'How long will it be as magic ?'”, she told French magazine L'Express Styles. “I don't think that you can figure out what the rules are which make a relationship lasting. It's a kind of accident, a conjunction of several causalities which meet and repeat. Or not."

The Black Swan actor has spoken about his jealous nature, and once revealed that he could become dangerous if saw a guy hanging around his wife. However, Monica insists Vincent is fine with her filming steamy scenes with her co-stars.
“But we know the rules of the acting game: if you had to banish the alchemy which happens between two actors, it would be fair to say that it's better to change your job,” she added. “While shooting with [Robert] De Niro [on film The Ages of Love] the only jealousy Vincent could have felt was to not have worked alongside De Niro himself!”
The 46-year-old actress gave birth to the couple’s second child last year.

Meera Chopra

Priyanka’s cousin Meera is recently facing lot of problems as she is receiving lewd mails from unknown email-ids.  Though Meera knows the person but can’t divulge the details due to confidentiality.
Reportedly she tells they are from abroad and she really wants to expose them to the media. Her engagement was almost on the verge of breaking due to such lewd mails.

The police have however managed to track the ip addresses from where the lewd mails were sent. Priyanka’s cousin is currently planning to leave for Mumbai.

Adriana Lima

Guaranteed to make you feel bad about yourself, a Victoria Secrets Angel wearing the same dress as you!
Stunning Brazilian model Adriana Lima wore this floral and leopard print dress by Dolce & Gabbana last week. She teamed it with killer peep toe black heels and simple gold jewellery. The body con dress shows off her amazing figure and the leopard prints tones complement her olive skin tone, well jeal!

American Actress, Amber Heard was also snapped wearing the same dress back in January at the Pre-Golden Globes New York Times Style Magazine dinner in LA. The film star kept in simple with black court shoes and a small black clutch. Not sure whether her pasty legs are doing justice to this uber sexy dress D&G dress though?

Tracy Morgan

Tracy Morgan apologized Friday morning for a homophobic rant he launched into during a June 3 show at Nashville's Ryman Auditorium.
"I want to apologize to my fans and the gay & lesbian community for my choice of words at my recent stand-up act in Nashville. I’m not a hateful person and don’t condone any kind of violence against others," Morgan said in a statement. "While I am an equal opportunity jokester, and my friends know what is in my heart, even in a comedy club this clearly went too far and was not funny in any context."
Morgan spoke out after organizations including GLAAD and the Human Rights Commission called for an apology or explanation.
During his June 3 show, the "30 Rock" and former "Saturday Night Live" actor had launched into a bit in which he called homosexuality a choice, said gays needed to stop complaining about bullying and promised that if his son were gay he'd better come home and talk like a man, or Dad would stab him to death.
That according to fan Kevin Rogers, who was at the Nashville show with his partner and a friend and had shared the comments -- much more raw than our version -- in a profanity-riddled Facebookpost recounting details of Morgan's raunchy rant.
"I figured at some point the gay jokes would fly and I'm well prepared for a good ribbing of straight gay humor," wrote Rogers, who said he found most of the show hilarious, until Morgan went off -- in detail -- on why homosexuality was "crazy" and how President Obama should "man up" and stop speaking out on behalf of lesbian gay bisexual and transgender kids.
Rogers' observations got more notice when Truth Wins Out, an organization that fights anti-gay extremism, issued a release Wednesday calling for a response from Morgan.
The Ryman Auditorium told the Hollywood Reporter that it "regrets that people were offended by the show," and does not control or endorse statements made by performers on its stage.

LGBT civil-rights organization HRC issued a follow-up statement Friday praising Morgan for apologizing, but saying that those words weren't enough.
"He's a role model and Morgan now has a responsibility to make amends for his horribly hurtful and dangerous 'comedy' routine. He also needs to go further than his apology and correct the record: no one should feel ashamed because they are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender and they should definitely not become a victim of violence," said Fred Sainz, HRC vice president for communications. "Words have consequences and Morgan should be held to a higher standard. Until he does something meaningful, his brand will remain tarnished."
So, should the audience have expected Morgan's rant? Perhaps the comic thought so.
"I think Nashville is hip, that's why I like playing it," he told the Tennessean newspaper in a June 2 article subtitled "What will Tracy Morgan say next?
"People get what I'm saying. They understand the words that are coming out of my mouth."

Flo Rida

Flo-Rida has been arrested for driving under the influence (DUI).

The 'Low' rapper was pulled over by officers in Miami Beach, Florida in a red and black Bugatti car – worth an estimated $1.7 million – after he swerved in the lane he was driving at around 3.30am on Thursday morning (09.06.11).

Officers said he failed a field sobriety test after they smelled alcohol on his breath, and he was transported to a nearby station and reportedly booked for DUI and driving with a suspended license.

A source told gossip website TMZ the star had a blood alcohol level which was more than double the legal limit.

Reacting to the news on twitter, user Anderson Cruz wrote: “Flo-Rida got caught for DUI last night, he was driving his Bugatti, I didnt even know he had Bugatti money! (sic)”

Another user, Mike Levine, tweeted: “Flo-Rida arrested for DUI. how many subpar songs do u hafta get rich off of before u just pay for a cab/driver? (sic)”

'Club Can't Handle Me' hitmaker Flo - real name Tramar Dillard – hails from the state's Carol City and rose to fame with his brand of rap/pop crossover tracks, such as his 2008 breakthrough 'Low' which was a US number one single for 10 weeks.
