Young Buck Arrested In Nashville

You know ain't nothing going on if we gotta resort to talking about Young Buck getting picked up for traffic warrants in his home town. Yeah, so, Buck was in Nashville to promote his album and be in a fashion show for Gino Green or something, and after the show, Buck was bobbing and weaving his Caddilac Escalade in and out of traffic, so the cops pulled him over. When they ran his name, an old warrant for driving with a suspended license came up, so they took him to the station. Buck posted a $1,000.00 bond and was released. He gotta appear in court on Feburary 27. Can we just be happy that he didn't have guns or drugs on him?  (Yahoo)

Isaiah Washington Enters Rehab After F-Word Scandal

Isaiah Washington's new handlers aren't exactly helping his case. Remember back in October when Isaiah had that fight onset and called that one dude the f-word? The situation cooled down publicly until Isaiah's show, Grey's Anatomy, won a Golden Globe. That's when Isaiah stirred everything up again by denying the incident ever happened, using the f-word in his crazy denial on live TV. Since then, Isaiah fired his publicist, hired a crisis management team and entered rehab. Rehab? What is he being treated for? Having a potty mouth? Is "f-word" the new "n-word"? Should Michael Richards have to go to rehab too? (Yahoo)

Columbus Short Confirms Britney Spears Romance

Let's talk about it some more. Here's what the Stomp The Yard star had to say about the whole "cheating on the wife with Britney thing" back in 2004 when it happened. "It's true I slept with Britney, [but] we never had sex because another person was in the room at the time. We shared a bed and were really close, kissing and hugging. The chemistry was magical ... our feelings were so strong." Meanwhile, his wife was at home, pregnant with their first child. "It would be fair to say Britney caused major problems in our marriage," says Short. "Sadly, we're now getting divorced." Short says his chemistry experiment with Britney occurred during her European tour. They were also snapped in a lip-lock last August in Culver City, Calif. He says, "Britney's mom, Lynne, stepped in to prevent that as soon as our feelings started to develop." Short soon found himself out of a job, and ended up teaching dance classes in Japan. "Despite everything that happened, I'll always remember those special moments with Britney," says Short. (New York Daily)
