By now, you’ve probably heard at least something about the Tiger Woods incident that went down over the weekend. On Friday morning, just before 2:30am, Tiger pulled his Cadillac Escalade out of his driveway and ran into a fire hydrant, and then a tree. Now, initial reports claimed that Tiger’s wife, Elin Nordegren, heard the commotion, ran outside and saw the accident. She saw that Tiger was trapped in the vehicle, so she grabbed a golf club and smashed out one of the SUV’s back windows in order to free him. A neighbor called 911, and when police and EMTs responded, they found Tiger lying on the road, lapsing in and out of consciousness. He had some facial lacerations and blood in his mouth. It would appear, however, that Elin’s part in this drama wasn’t quite so innocent or heroic. Some sources say that Tiger was trying to peel out of his house because he was arguing with Elin over a “National Enquirer” story that claims he cheated on her. And it was Elin who scratched up his face. Then, when he got into the Escalade and tried to leave, she grabbed the golf club and started swinging at it, busting out at least one of the windows before he could get away. One source says Tiger told a friend on the phone Friday that his wife had scratched his face during an argument over the Enquirer story. According to that friend, Tiger said, “I have to run to Zales to get a ‘Kobe Special.’” The person on the other end of the phone asked Tiger what a “Kobe Special” was. The reply “A house on a finger.” During the conversation, Tiger said his wife had “gone ghetto” on him. If this story is not true, Tiger and Elin aren’t helping to clear things up. Police have been trying to interview Tiger since Friday, but he has refused to meet with them on three occasions. The speculation is that Tiger is dodging the police until his wounds heal because he doesn’t want them to find out it was actually Elin, and not the accident, that caused them. Because then, Elin could be charged with domestic abuse. Tiger did issue a statement. And that statement is very protective of his wife. He said, “This situation is my fault, and it’s obviously embarrassing to my family and me. I will certainly make sure this doesn’t happen again. This is a private matter and I want to keep it that way. The only person responsible for the accident is me. My wife, Elin, acted courageously when she saw I was hurt and in trouble. She was the first person to help me. Any other assertion is absolutely false. Now, the other woman is denying she ever had an affair with Tiger. That woman’s name is Rachel Uchitel. She works as an event planner/nightclub hostess in New York City. She says, “I don’t appreciate my name or what people think of me being dragged through the mud by people who don’t even bother to research what or who they’re talking about. I totally deny the ‘Enquirer’ story. They did contact me about it, but they didn’t use any of my quotes or any of the information I gave them.”

 

“People” magazine had been saying that Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal have broken up in the Big Fat Rumor of the Day. But they got their info from a, “source close to the actress.” Well, that “source” apparently wasn’t as close to Reese as “People” thought it was. Both of their reps say it’s not true, and Reese and Jake are still together.

 

David Hasselhoff was allegedly taken by ambulance from his home to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after suffering an alcohol-induced seizure. I say “allegedly”, because we don’t actually know if David was taken by ambulance from his home to Cedars-Sinai. All we do know is that somebody was taken from David’s home by ambulance to Cedars-Sinai. But nobody’s saying who the patient was. Some websites are claiming that David was on a several-day drinking binge, and he suffered a seizure just before noon on Friday. One of his teenage daughters called 911, and the paramedics came and took him away. Another source claims that both of David’s daughters and their mom, Pamela Bach, were at the hospital on Friday. But they claimed David wasn’t there. There’s no word what they were doing at the hospital, if not visiting David. David may be under one of those 5150 psychiatric holds where they can keep you for up to 72 hours if they think you’re a danger to yourself or others. But David’s lawyer says, “David’s at home. He’s fine. I’m not sure where that information is coming from.” And in ever more bad news for the Hoff clan,  Pamela Bach got a DUI Saturday night on the 101 Freeway in L.A. Police gave her two breathalyzer tests. She blew a .13 and a .14. That’s well over the legal limit of .08. Bach also got a DUI in March.

 

“20/20″ got Rihanna and now they have Chris Brown. He already sat down with Robin Roberts for an interview that will air on Friday, December 11th on ABC. In a complete coincidence, Chris’ new album, “Graffiti” hits stores on Tuesday, December 8th. I’m sure he’ll have all kinds of new things to say.

I have SO much to be thankful for this year! Starting with my job. I’m so blessed to HAVE a job…and one I love at that! I’m thankful for my husband that I’ve been married to for almost 8 months now…my step-daughter who lights up our life! My family…my friends that are like my family…a roof over my head, my mini Zoo (2 dogs and a cat!) I’m thankful for the ability to speak, hear, touch, see, smell, walk…we take advantage of the small things! In general…I am just extremely thankful. I hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends! Remember to reflect on things you are Thankful for as well.

 This month 2 years ago my husband proposed to me at the Grand Illuminations Parade in downtown Norfolk. Last weekend was the Parade and unfortunately we didn’t get the chance to go! I remember like it was yesterday…November 17th and both our families got to be a part of the BIG moment! A Z104 listener caught the moment on tape! I watched it again the other day & it brought tears to my eyes!

Lil Wayne’s ex-wife Antonia “Toya” Carter and T.I.’s fiancée Tameka “Tiny” Cottle have a BET reality show together and now their daughters are in a girl group together. Tiny was in the girl group Xscape in the ’90s. The group, The OMG Girlz, features four girls between the ages of 11 and 13 including Wayne’s 11-year-old daughter Reginae a.k.a.“Baby Carter” and Tameka’s 13-year-old daughter Zonnique a.k.a. “Star”.  By the way, T.I. isn’t her father, but check them out on their MySpace page.

 

What does Rihanna want for Christmas?

 

Mariah Carey’s diva demands have been well documented in the past, but this is pretty ridiculous. Kate Garraway, one of the hosts of the British morning show “GMTV” says she witnessed some pretty insane behavior from Mariah and her entourage when Mariah appeared on her show recently. She says, “I’ve heard a lot of rumors about her being a diva over the years and guess what? It’s all true! Mariah was very nice, but the amount of people she had in her entourage was hilarious. They outnumbered the entire ‘GMTV’ crew! She had two people to lower her on to the sofa in case her dress got crushed, one person to walk in front of her backwards at all times in case she fell over, and several people behind the camera making sure she was going to be filmed from the right angle!” But that isn’t all. Garraway adds, “She brought her own toilet paper as well.” Mariah’s rep calls these comments a, “clear, gross exaggeration.”

 

When Shauna Sand was married to Lorenzo Lamas, she allegedly had an affair with his 18-year-old son. Well, a few years later, Shauna allowed herself to get busy with another 18-year-old. The difference, though, is that unlike Lorenzo’s kid, this one ended up becoming famous. The young stud in question is Chace Crawford from “Gossip Girl”. He’s 24 now, so this would have been about six years ago. And that would have been four years before “Gossip Girl” and a year or two after Shauna and Lorenzo divorced. Shauna would have been around 32 at the time. She told the “Star” tabloid, “He was so incredibly beautiful. I immediately fell in love with him. And I even gave him a key to my apartment.” A source close to Chace adds, “Chace told me, ‘Shauna was the first girl I ever had sex with! She blew my mind, and I’ll never forget it.’”

 

Donny Osmond won “Dancing With the Stars” last night. Mya got robbed. She finished second, and Kelly Osbourne took third place. This was the first win for Donny’s partner Kym Johnson. Donny’s first instinct was to run into the crowd and grab his wife of 32 years to celebrate with him. Donny’s sister Marie, who finished third when she did the show, also joined them. If you’ve been watching the show, then you know that Kelly Osbourne was one of those contestants who really seized the opportunity to rehabilitate her image. She said, “It’s been the most beautiful, amazing experience.  Thank you, America, thank you so much for voting me in every single week. It’s because of you that I’ve grown so much, it’s because of you that I’ve had this opportunity. So thank you, really, from the bottom of my heart.” I’m still mad that Joanna Krupa and Derek Hough got voted off too soon. Ha!

You’re probably well aware that I am a sports fan. Sundays are great this time of year because it’s non stop games! My Eagles won yesterday FYI. ANYWAY…I’ve noticed that although every television network does indeed have female sportscasters unlike the dudes every single woman commentator is placed on the field. Now I’m not sayin they’re not happy down on the field, in the cold, reading questions they are clearly given to ask, but what gives? If I were them I’d wanna be kickin’ it in the heat with the drinks and grub with Mike and Al. Oh, and one more thing, why they gotta dress like the first lady of the United States? All buttoned up, collared shirt, peacoat, 1992 hair do’s?! Can a bit get a cute scarf or a warm North Face down jacket? That’s all.

Over the weekend, ABC confirmed that production on “Cougar Town” has been “temporarily shut down” to give Courteney Cox some time to deal with a quote, “private family matter” in the Big Fat Rumor of the Day. The network did not elaborate on what’s happening, and no one from Courteney’s camp has commented on it.

 

Justin Bieber had to bail on a CD signing at the mall on Friday because too many fans showed up. According to some reports, as many as 10,000 fans gathered in the mall. At one point, there was a stampede and one girl had to be hospitalized with minor injuries. She’ll be OK. At least some fans may have found out about Justin’s appearance on Twitter. Earlier that day, he wrote, “On my way to Roosevelt Field Mall in Long Island, NY to sign and meet fans!! I’m pumped. See u there.” Justin has around 534,000 fans “following” him on Twitter. If you want to get an idea what sheer chaos was going on, you can watch the fan video below. The part we’re not sure about is that 44-year-old James Roppo, the senior vice president of sales at Justin’s label, Def Jam Records, was arrested during the chaos. We haven’t heard why yet. As the police were trying desperately to get the girls out of the mall, Justin was trying to help by updating his Twitter to let his fans know he was not coming. His messages said, “They are not allowing me to come into the mall. If you don’t leave I and my fans will be arrested as the police just told us. The event at Roosevelt Mall is cancelled. Please go home. The police have already arrested one person from my camp. I don’t want anyone hurt. I’m sorry to everyone who was in Long Island at the Mall 2day. I was just trying to come meet fans and never meant to disappoint anyone.” He also said he’ll somehow make it up to the fans that were at the mall soon. Justin’s debut album, “My World”, came out last Tuesday.

 

Michael Jackson won four American Music Awards last night, but Taylor Swift dominated the evening with five, including the big one:  Artist of the Year. Michael’s four awards, which included Favorite Pop/Rock Artist, brought his career total to 25. We assume that’s where it’ll stay, but I guess you never know. There are lots of performances onthe ZMZ Blog including Lady Gaga and Rihanna, but Adam Lambert closed out the show with a pretty raunchy rendition of “For Your Entertainment” which included him getting a little too friendly with both girls and guys. It’s more or less a WTF moment:

50 Cent was going to participate in the safe sex campaign “Wrap It Up”, but it didn’t end up happening because 50 wanted to add chemicals to the condoms that would make the man last longer. He says, “You could just put it on and just go.” His idea, not surprisingly, was rejected. There aren’t any further details, but I’m going to assume that 50’s chemicals proposal was rejected because it could jeopardize the main safety function of the condoms, which, you know, is fairly important.

Whew this felt like a looonnnnnnngggg WEEK! I know you’re happy too that Friday is FINALLY here!

 Are you going to go watch New Moon this weekend!? According to perezhilton.com: “Predictions are rolling in that it beat both The Dark Knight’s and Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince’s numbers, raking in between $23 and $24 million for the 12:01 AM screenings!”

That’s insane! You’re going to hate me…but I haven’t even seen the first one YET! I need to catch up this weekend apparently. Also, I think “Edward” is hotter as a Vampire (in his make up &  fake contacts) vs. in real life. Am I the only one that feels that way?! I mean P-Ratz is cute…but I like him better as a Vampire (from what I’ve seen in the posters!) See for yourself:

If New Moon keeps it up all day it could break the biggest Friday opening record too!

Anyway, we had our Holiday Party last night aboard the Spirit of Norfolk! It was a lot of fun…rumor has it that we’re supposed to have ANOTHER holiday party before Christmas!? I guess people in Radio like to have LOTS of F-U-N! Here’s a pic of Joe and I from last night…I look like a deer caught in headlights! I was trying to be “festive” with my red lipstick!

Have a great weekend! More to come next week!

Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens are breaking up in the Big Fat Rumor of the Day. But here’s the problem, Vanessa doesn’t know it.  The “National Enquirer” has a new story out titled, “Zac and Vanessa Finished… She Just Doesn’t Know It Yet”. But a source tells “Us Weekly”, “They just spent months together up in Vancouver, where they are both filming movies. Things are going well with them. They are happy.”

 

Rihanna denies she’s dating “90210″ actor Tristan Wilds. In a interview yesterday she admitted that he did show up at her house party last weekend. But she added, “I don’t even have his number.” She also admitted that she misses certain things about Chris Brown and when his music comes on the radio, she doesn’t automatically turn it off.

 

Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning share the screen in “New Moon” but you can see them share a kiss in their upcoming movie, “The Runaways”. The title refers to the ’70s all-girl rock band that gave Joan Jett and Lita Ford their starts. Kristen plays Joan, while Dakota plays singer Cherie Currie. And there’s a scene in which their characters make out. Dakota says, “They’re best friends in the film and became really close in real life.  And that’s something that went down back in the ’70s.”

 

It’s official: “The Oprah Winfrey Show” will end in 2011. Yesterday, Harpo, Oprah’s production company, released a statement confirming that Oprah has decided NOT to re-up her show’s syndication deal when it expires in 2011. The last episode will air on September 9th, 2011. “The Oprah Winfrey Show” debuted on September 8th, 1986 so Oprah will be signing off the day after the show’s 25th anniversary.
