R Kelly to Be Tried for Child Pornography

Ah..another celeb in trouble. You'd think these people could afford to not do anything to get them into trouble.

SGB, do you have any celebs down your way that are always in trouble?

None to the extent of US celebs.

You know, with all the money celebrities have, you'd think they'd be doing anything BUT getting in trouble.

I'm not surprised that he's being charged for child porn, though.

It took this long to go to trial? I mean the last time we heard of this was years ago!

The beauty of having money...

Yeah, but I think there's a big backlash going on against the "celebrity treatment". I think we're going to see some tougher rulings laid out. I hope so, anyway. They've been getting off too easily this past couple decades.

Why do celebs have to act so dumb?

Let's start with the underage drinking. That goes on outside of Hollywood with normal kids. However, these Hollywood starlets don't have a shortage of money, SO..one would think that they would have brains enough to hire a driver for the night since they know that they are going to be drinking. Another note on the drinking, video footage is often captured of these "starlets" in these nightclubs completely drunk. Why aren't the nightclubs in trouble for serving alcohol to minors? Because they are getting paid off, that's why.

What is with these incidents in which some of these young women are going "commando". That happens outside of Hollywood too, granted your neighbor's daughter's goods aren't being plastered all over the front page of the tabloids. Of course, most men are probably trying to find the uncensored versions of the photos somewhere on the internet. If these Hollywood girls want to go around without underwear, that's fine, but why wear the really short skirts that you know will end up flashing the camera men who will be waiting and then get mad at the media for spreading the pictures around? If you don't want the world to see it, then cover it up.

Someone please tell me the whole point of "rehab". It's becoming more like a vacation house for celebs than a place to actually get help. I half expect to go in there and find one of the kitchen helpers slipping alcohol to the underage drinkers in exchange for getting a view up the skirt.

If you're a celebrity, then use your money wisely, hire personal drivers so that you can avoid those DUIs. Hire someone to make sure your laundry is clean and that you're "fully dressed". And for God sakes, if you can't buy a set of brains than hire someone to do the thinking for you.

Keep it up KBL! Those are REALLY good points. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Can someone explain to me the sudden explosion of babies in Hollywood?

Every time you check the news, some new Hollywood couple is expecting a baby, just had a baby, or is adopting another baby (Angelina, give it a rest. You can't collect the whole set).

Is someone putting something in the water? Is there a doctor in Beverly Hills whose secretly prescribing fertility drugs? Have these people can't take care of their own careers, let alone a child.

Is there any REAL Hollywood news left?

Other than the death of Mr. Merv Griffin, no.

Now the big stink is Mary-Kate Olsen kissing Ben Kingsley. So what if he's 63 and she's 21. They are actors. There have been a lot more disturbing scenes in Hollywood. Namely Kathy Bates topless scene in "About Schmidt". *shivers*

And in other dumb celebrity news:

DMX House Raided

If this keeps up, Hollywood will need to build a "Celebs Only" prison.

DMX can always say, "Uh...Your honor, the pit bulls are for my protection and I have licenses for the guns. The Phoenix police are just trying to give me a hard time and mistreated my dogs."

I think it would be stupid for celebrities and athletes to hold illegal dog fighting because they stand to lose millions of dollars if caught. Think of all of the endorsement deals and contracts Vick is going to lose right now.
