Daryl Hannah Arrested

The 48-year-old actress was taking part in a protest against mountaintop
coal mining – which sees the tops of mountains blown away to help miners get
at deposits inside – during which a West Virginia road was blocked yesterday.

Daryl – who is a long-term environmental activist – and 30 other people
blocked traffic by sitting on a stretch of road outside a Massey Energy
Company plant, prompting police to intervene.

State Police Sergeant Michael Baylous said: “Tensions were pretty high. But
nobody got hurt and we're pleased with that
.”



The protesters were cited for impeding traffic and obstructing an officer
and released.

Speaking about the mining practice before she was arrested, Daryl said:

It's not necessary. If you do it wisely, there are ways to use renewables.
It's realistic for everybody
.”

The group had originally planned to stage a protest inside the plant, but
miners stopped them from gaining access to the site.

This is not the first time Daryl’s beliefs have got her in trouble with the
law.

In 2006, she was arrested after climbing into a walnut tree in an effort to
stop an urban garden being destroyed to make way for a warehouse.

Speaking from the tree, Daryl said: “I’m very confident this is the morally
right thing to do, to take a principled stand in solidarity with the
farmers
.”

Jessica Biel Can Watch Survelliance Video To See If Timberlake Cheated

A nightclub owner has spoken out to defend Justin Timberlake - blasting reports the pop star cheated on girlfriend Jessica Biel at the New York venue.

Lindsay Lohan sparked rumours the singer was unfaithful while partying at celebrity hot spot Avenue when she wrote a message on her Twitter.com blog last week, "where's jb cheater", adding the next day, "Why do people cheat?"

The Mean Girls actress has since insisted she did not write the comments and claimed they were the results of a hacker.

But witnesses at the club suggest Timberlake was seen drunkenly talking to a mystery woman, according to the New York Post.

Now Avenue owner Noah Tepperberg has spoken out to defend Timberlake, insisting video cameras at the nightspot prove the singer behaved himself.

Tepperberg tells New York Post gossip column PageSix, "My partner, Danny A, was with Justin and a few of his guy friends the entire night, and I was within 15 feet of him the whole time he was there, and we know for sure he was not doing anything with other girls.

"He was having a good time with the guys, and came and left with them. I have surveillance cameras that show this to be the case and anything you are hearing is simply not true.”

A representative for Timberlake said, “I have no comment on my client’s personal life.” (KD/WNWCPS/ZN)

Lindsay Lohan’s Mom Assulted And Held Hostage By Housekeeping

Lindsay Lohan's mother Dina has taken to the Internet in a bizarre rant against staff at a hotel - accusing a housekeeper of assaulting her with a towel.

The reality TV matriarch began a series of strange postings on her Twitter.com blog in the early hours of Wednesday morning (24Jun09), complaining after the venue she was staying in only provided her with two towels.

Lohan went on to urge her Twitter followers to call the hotel's housekeeping staff and demand more towels be delivered to her room.

She writes, "I NEED this situation rectified immediately. Will someone that can get in contact with housekeeping tell them.

"This is not appropriate I need assistance IMMEDIATELY. Someone please get a hold of housekeeping for me. I am being ignored and discriminated (against) once again! Someone please help."

Her next posting reveals the housekeeper delivered the towels to her room as requested, but alleges the woman swore and threw the items at her.

She writes, "I was just assaulted by housekeeping staff, she swore back at me and threw the towels at me. I am in shock I think the towels left a mark on me. I need a camera IMMEDIATELY to document my injuries from this reckless woman. How dare she! I am shaking. Will someone provide me with a camera?"

Lohan continues, "Being held HOSTAGE in my room, I fear the woman who assaulted me and swore back at me is in the hallway screaming in a strange language. HELP. I am SHAKING I need to document all of this for security I immediately require a languist (sic) to help tell me the strange language she is shouting.

"I don't condone violence but she swore back at me and ASSAULTED (me) with the towels am I to defend??? I would like to see you all get towels thrown VIOLENTLY at you and see how much it assaults you." (LR/WNTWT/KD)

Paris Hilton On Those Ronaldo Rumors

Paris Hilton has lashed out at the media for a string of stories linking her to soccer star Cristiana Ronaldo - insisting she wants the romance rumors to end once and for all.

The hotel heiress ended her six-month romance with baseball player Doug Reinhardt earlier this month (Jun09) and shortly after news of the split broke, she was photographed getting close to Ronaldo in a Los Angeles nightclub.

The socialite has been dogged by rumors of a romance with the sportsman ever since, despite the star's insistence the pair is "just friends."

And now Hilton has taken aim at the press - accusing reporters of making up "vicious stories" about her love life.

She rants on Twitter.com, "I'm really sick of reporters not only making up stories, but also inventing their own quotes that I never even said. It's ridiculous! They have no credibility. They make up vicious stories, and even though they are so far from the truth, it's still hurtful.

"They even invent relationships, if I even talk to a guy as a friend, they blow it so out of proportion and act like we are dating. So lame.

"Sorry for the venting, I'm just sick of all these stupid rumors. I'm trying to focus on my life and work and don't need the extra stress.

"Plus, I want you all to know the truth. Don't believe what you read, about 90 percent of it is pure fiction." (WENN/LR/WNTWT/KD)
