Despite police proclaiming publicly that Shia LaDouche was "clearly" drunk during his DUI arrest last weekend, the actor's Transformers 2 director insists his star was sober at the time of the car crash.
In a new interview, Michael Bay says:
“You’re gonna see — that’s gonna go away. That’s fresh news… He was not drunk. He was drinking hours and hours before."
Dude, you're not helping his cause by ADMITTING that he was drinking.
Were you with him? Did you see how much he consumed????
Adds Bay, "I spoke to him yesterday in the hospital. His two fingers are pretty mashed, but we’re figuring out a way to shoot around it, kind of write it in the story.”
Despite LaDouche's most recent arrest, his second in less than 12 months, Bay insists that Shia is still a good person. He says, "The kid really has his head together and you know, he’s only 22. He’s doing a great job on this movie. He’s really matured since the last one and I love working with him.”
Of course you're gonna say that. You gotta put a pretty spin on things.
But, it would have been a lot braver and more responsible to condemn LaDouche's drinking and driving.
Michael Bay is a douche too! Duh.

Yay for gay marriage!
Best known for her iconic role in Welcome To The Dollhouse, openly gay actress Heather Matarazzo is walking down the aisle with her girlfriend.
The 25-year-old is is engaged to Carolyn Murphy, her partner of over a year.
And, in a really cute move, they proposed to each other!
"It was really cute. First Heather proposed to Carolyn, then Carolyn proposed to her," says Matarazzo's publicist.
The rep adds that the two are very supportive of each other and are totally in love—"it was love at first sight."
And, thankfully, more and more states are recognizing that love is love, no matter if you're gay, straight or whatever you are.
Love is love.
Equality for all!

Thoughts?????
Earlier in the week, Amy Winehouse's dad claimed that Wino was hospitalized this Monday because someone drugged her.
Uh huh.
Wino's mom, Janis, is spouting off a nonsensical explanation too. Well, nonsensical for Crackhouse.
Momma Wino says the hospital visit was simply a matter of human error.
"The truth is that Amy ended up in hospital this week because she mixed up the medication she's taking to help her come off drugs," she says. "She took a wrong tablet."
She went on to say that Ames' recent diagnosis with lung disease has encouraged her to steer clear of recreational drugs.
Say what????
"I really don't think she's using now," claims Janis. "Being diagnosed with the early stage of emphysema was a real jolt to her. A bit of a wake-up call."
Why is it so hard for some parents to accept the ugly truth about their kids?
Momma and Poppa Winehouse must both be smoking from Amy's kitty crack pipe!

Hip hop divas unite.
According to a new report, Jay-Z is set to work with Kanye West AND Timbaland on sessions for his new album.
Yeah, he's not retiring any time soon!
Early reports said that Jay's new stuff was going to be produced solely by Timbaland, but the hip-hop star has revealed that the sessions are more of a "musical competition" between his peers.
Hova says, "I'm a person that works off music. If Timbaland makes 10 great tracks then he produces the album, if Kanye West makes 10 great tracks then he produces the album; if he makes three, I'll take three. I let the music dictate the direction. You know I love Timbaland, he is like a brother to me, but until the music is done it's premature."
We can't wait to see what will come of all this.
They're all such big personalities. We wish we could be a fly on the wall of Jay-Z's studio!
Yum. Yum. Yum!
Can we have a piece of that????

According to a new report, the late Tim Russert's son, Luke, will be covering the Democratic and Republican conventions for NBC News.
The younger Russert's assignment as a convention correspondent focusing on "youth issues" is his first for NBC, the network said Thursday.
NBC New's president said, "Never before in an election cycle has so much attention turned to the youth vote, and Luke will bring a unique perspective to covering it."
Russert said in a statement that he was "humbled and grateful" for the opportunity.
We're sure he'll do a great job!

All the swinging she does with the Primrose Hill set took its toll on Jude Law's ex-wifey, Sadie Frost.
According to the Daily Mail, Frost's clothing line, FrostFrench, was forced to fold last week with one creditor owed more than $6.6 million.
Total debts are understood to be just over $8 million.
However, with friends like Kate Moss, Frost's 'celebrity' status attracted a rich investor (a Norwegian film producer) to save its assets at the last minute.
Renamed FrostFrench London Retail, the new company will manage the label, and the company's store in the trendy Islington section of London will remain open.
Lucky break for the former Mrs. Jude Law.
