OK … so something went down here in LA last night that involved Paris Hilton reportedly getting into an altercation with someone. As a result, blood was spilled and Paris absolutely refused to let her face be photographed … but no one is totally sure exactly what went down. According to The Dirty, Paris got into a fight with her boyfriend Doug Reinhart when she caught him checkin’ out another chick. According to X17, Paris got into a fight with a look-alike who was checkin’ out her boyfriend Doug. Both reports agree that the incident took place at a place called The Darkroom but, again, we don’t know for sure which if either report is the truth. Here are a few photos of Paris Hilton after the reported altercation took place … as you can see, she did everything she could to keep her face hidden:

X17 reports that Paris threw fruit at the look-alike who, in turn, got up to beat Paris’s ass. Apparently, the scuffle was broken up before anyone was seriously injured but Paris’s male friend was seen with blood on his hands. HMMM. Could Paris have been socked in the face over her childish behavior? I suspect we’ll be hearing from Hilton herself in a few days with her side of the story … but in the meantime, let the speculation commence. What do y’all think happened?

As you may recall, Bret Michaels got beaned in the head by a descending backdrop during his performance on The Tony Awards this past Sunday night (Poison performed with the company of the musical Rock of Ages when the accident took place). It turns out that while Bret didn’t suffer any major injuries from this incident, he did walk away with a bit of a bruised ego. His rep Janna Elias, speaking on his behalf, has issued a statement publicly complaining that Michaels should’ve been afforded the same treatment that Liza Minelli or Elton John would’ve gotten if they were injured on the show. Yeah, I don’t get it either … but here is the full text of Elias’s statement on Bret Michaels’s behalf anyways:

“After a performance by singer Bret Michaels at the Tony Awards Sunday night, he turned to exit the stage and was struck in the head by a descending half-ton stage prop, sweeping him off his feet causing contusions to his face and knocking him to the ground. Even at that point of impact, the heavy prop was still not halted and continued to descend even though Michaels remained underneath it. Witnesses state the singer moved himself out of the way just moments before the prop touched down. With all due respect to everyone working the Tony Awards, somewhere down the line there was a lack of communication and the prop should have been immediately halted until Michaels was clear. Sunday morning at rehearsals, Bret was never informed that the descending set piece existed, let alone would be moving into position as he was exiting the stage. Although Bret was visibly dazed, he remained extremely calm backstage as members of Poison’s road crew brought him a towel to wipe the blood from his face. His only comment at the time was, ‘What the hell just hit me?’ The severity of this injury is not being taken lightly as symptoms from head and neck injuries at first may seem like nothing and sometimes do not present for days. At this time, the full extent of his injuries remain to be seen until all x-rays are back. I find it surprising that a Tony spokesperson would brush off this incident with a comment stating, ‘Mr. Michaels missed his mark,’ with no mention of concern for his condition. If everyone at the Tonys were aware that Bret missed his mark, then they should have been aware enough to stop the set piece from hitting him or at least slowed it down until he cleared the stage. I feel had this incident happened to Liza Minelli, Dolly Parton or Elton John, the Tonys would have at least issued a letter of concern.”

LMAO!!! I mean … c’mon! Accidents happen, rock stars should know that. It seems silly to me that his rep is making a big stink about this days after the incident took place. Does Ms. Elias really feel that issuing this statement makes her client look better? It makes him look like a crybaby … the poor thing. Memo to Bret Michaels — get over it! You hit your head, you go boom, carry on.

The new star of MTV’s The Hills, Kristin Cavallari, was on hand at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising here in LA last night to attend the 70th Anniversary Screening Of The Wizard Of Oz. Here are a few pics of KC at last night’s even lookin’ supermegahawt:

Yes, this event is kinda random and I’m not sure what having Kristin Cavallari’s appearance has to do with The Wizard of Oz … but she did look smokin’ hot in her sexy dress. It turns out that Heather Graham wore this same dress to the Hollywood premiere of The Hangover a couple of weeks ago but IMHO KC deffo looks better in the dress. I think Kristin’s plan of attack is to appear at as many events as possible leading up to the debut of the new season of The Hills. Methinks we’ll be seeing more of KC in the coming weeks and months … wherever will she show up next?

Gwen Stefani, currently on tour with No Doubt after taking a few years away from the band, is featured on the cover and in the pages of the new issue of Elle magazine. Here is Gwen’s Elle cover along with a few excerpts from her coverstory interview:

On being a mother: “It’s one thing when you have an infant, but when you have this two-or three-year-old going, ‘Mommy, what’s the deal?’ it’s harder. Kingston’s whole thing is, ‘I need, I need.’ He is insane right now. We’re just hoping for the best and that he’s not going to turn out to be a freak, but we’ll see.”

On how her priorities changed from band to family: “I wasn’t even married. Now I’m a wife and a mother of two. It’s a really different role. I always referred to No Doubt as a marriage, because that’s what it’s like to be together for so long and go through what we’ve been through. I can’t really have that relationship with them anymore. My priorities are always going to be my husband and my family now. That’s a huge, huge thing.”

Gwen really does keep things pretty normal … she goes out with her family, she does her thing, she lives her life. She is one of those very famous celebs that never seems to court attention and, yet, she never shies away from it when she gets it. I think it’s been pretty cool watching her mature into the woman she’s become. I remember when I first heard about No Doubt all those years ago … and seeing her now as a wife and a mother of 2, it’s pretty damn awesome that she’s managed to stay pretty much the same down chick she’s always been. After the jump, check out a photo of Gwen with her littlest child Zuma Nesta from her Elle mag photoshoot …

Just about a month ago Donald Trump called a huge press conference to announce to the world that Carrie Prejean would be allowed to keep her Miss California USA crown in light of the topless photos scandal that plagued the beauty queen in recent weeks. But that was then … this is now and the Donald has had a change of heart. Citing Prejean’s inability to fulfill the requirements necessary to reign as Miss California USA, Trump has decided to strip away the crown … Carrie Prejean is fired and Tami Farrell will be elevated as the new Miss California USA:

We’ve learned “biblically correct” Carrie Prejean will lose her Miss California USA crown today because she doesn’t play well with others. Sources connected with the pageant tell us even Donald Trump has now had it with Carrie, because she’s violating her contract by not getting clearance to do her extracurricular stuff. We’re also told Carrie has been a no-show for appearances she was supposed to make for the pageant organization. The firing, we’re told, is strictly based on Carrie breaching her contract. It’s not based on her political and moral views. Carrie is getting her walking papers this afternoon. The new Miss California USA will be Miss Malibu Tami Farrell … Donald Trump just told TMZ he gave the green light to fire “biblically correct” Carrie Prejean’s award-winning butt because she just wouldn’t do the job and treated people badly. Trump told us Carrie refused to appear at around 30 events on behalf of Miss California USA. He says Prejean was contractually bound to appear and she just wouldn’t do it. He doesn’t think her attitude has anything to do with her politics. Trump said: “To me she was the sweetest thing. Everyone else — she treated like shit.”

Thank Jebus … now mebbe this whole matter can go away once and for all. Carrie Prejean’s holier than thou attitude never really jibbed with her beauty queen persona so I couldn’t understand why she’d want to engage in a beauty contest in the first place. It seemed to me that once she gained notoriety from her remarks in the pageant and became something of an evangelical superstar, she no longer really had any interest in representing the Miss California USA organization. From the sound of her behavior in the past month, it appears that Donald Trump has had enough. I, too, have had enough. Now Prejean is free to pose as topless as she wants to, whenever she wants to. Praise the Lord!

So … Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final was played in Pittsburgh, PA last night and, well, there will be a Game 7 in Detroit, MI on Friday. I personally would’ve preferred that the matter would’ve been settled last night but it looks like the Stanley Cup will be won in Detroit on Friday night:

I met up with my buds Dino, Russ and their friend Greg to watch the game last night … we had a lot of fun even tho the outcome wasn’t quite what we were hoping for. I’m really rootin’ for the Wings to settle the matter once and for all on home ice at the Joe Louis Arena. I’m just hoping the anxious stress of the next few days doesn’t kill me in the meantime ;)

No big plans for today … tho, I suspect I’ll be making my way down to Long Beach for a happy meal :)
