Mike Tyson Arrested

Mike Tyson has been arrested after knocking out a photographer at LAX. The former world heavyweight boxing champion and the paparazzo were being interviewed as WENN went to press.

Apparently, the incident occurred at Terminal 7 just as the ex-boxer was about to board a plane. The paparazzo was reportedly punched in the face and an ambulance was called to take the bloody photographer to a hospital.

Wow! While I don’t condone violence, the paparazzo was pretty stupid to get Tyson pissed. I don’t think the photos he tried to take are worth being punched by a former boxing champion.

Andre Agassi Opens Up about Marriage to Brooke Shields

Tennis star Andre Agassi revealed his feelings about his failed marriage to actress Brooke Shields and says they should’ve never got hitched, according to Starpulse. Agassi swears they weren’t a good match:

“(I was) 27 years old, ranked 141 in the world and in a marriage that I shouldn’t be (sic) in… I didn’t want to be playing tennis either so my life was filled with things I didn’t want, things I didn’t choose. Part of it was an inability to find a place for anything really.”

The reason they weren’t a good match was because Brooke Shields was much too good for him! I hope he thinks all of the revelations in his new book Open are worth all of the publicity and money.

Sammy Sosa Denies Skin Bleaching

Baseball star Sammy Sosa denied bleaching his skin after he was photographed at the Latin Grammys last week with a much more lighter complexion in his face. Many people didn’t even recognize him because he looked so different.

A close friend of Sosa’s came forward to explain his new look. Former Cubs employee Rebecca Polihronis tells the Chicago Tribune,

“He’s not trying to be Michael Jackson.

He is going through a rejuvenation process for his skin. Women have it all of the time. He was surprised he came out looking so white. I thought it was a body double.

He is in the middle of doing a cleansing process to his skin. The picture is deceiving. He said, ‘If you saw me in person, you would be surprised. When you see me in person, it is not going to seem like the picture.’

People who saw him in person did not react the same way. He can’t believe it is such a big deal.”

Well, one can’t help but thinking he bleached his skin to look that way. It does look like he did the same thing as Michael Jackson - I wouldn’t have recognized him! Oh well, if he’s happy with it - more power to him.

Andre Agassi Admits to Wearing Wig

Not only did Andre Agassi drop a bombshell with his admission of crystal methamphetamines while he was a tennis star, he also confessed to wearing a wig in the 1990s! I always wondered if his hair was a wig, but figured a guy that young wouldn’t be wearing a wig.

His publicist was smart to make him admit these things for his book because I’m sure his admission has intrigued a lot of people to wanting to learn more details about his crystal meth use and wig wearing.

Cristiano Ronaldo Models Giorgio Armani Underwear

Move over David Beckham, here comes Cristiano Ronaldo! Cristiano Ronaldo is replacing David Beckham as the underwear model for Giorgio Armani, according to Reuters. The Real Madrid star has been confirmed as the face for Emporio Armani’s Men’s Underwear and Armani Jeans in Spring/Summer 2010.

I can’t wait until these ads are out, but I’m doubtful they’ll be hotter than David Beckham’s photos.

Kate Hudson to Marry Alex Rodriguez?

Kate Hudson is rumored to be heading to the altar with A-Rod aka Alex Rodriguez. The actress is said to be smitten with the baseball star. A source dished to the FOX 411 blog:

“Kate is head over heels for Alex and he feels the same way. As long as things continue to be so great, they will get married. They are practically there already with the shared homes, the children and balancing work.”

The couple is said to have already moved in together in NYC and are “trying to help their children bond.” The source added:

“Kate wanted Ryder to meet Alex’s daughters, and now the three kids play together. They make an adorable family. He makes plenty of time for family meals, and especially dates with Kate.”

It’s nice to see Kate happy, but I don’t really see this relationship lasting too long. I hope for her sake and the sake of her son Ryder, I’m wrong.

Michael Vick Lands His Own Reality Show

Apparently Michael Vick thinks he’s a good role model for kids and his reality show will help kids who have fallen from grace make a comeback like he did. His show will explore his past, the time he spent in jail, his NFL comeback, and his problems with his fiance.

Vick said: “This show can be a blueprint for so many kids. I want to show that if they have a fall from grace, this is how they can turn it around. We want this to be a story of hope.”

Is he for real? I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ll always think of him as the guy who torchered dogs for fun and will never ever watch one second of his show.
