Aries Spears Got Arrested
I know, who cares right? But anyway, NYPD received a 911 call shortly after midnight Friday from a woman claiming Spears had fondled her at the Comix Comedy Club in Manhattan, where Spears had performed earlier. He was arrested just before 1:00 AM and taken to the station and booked. He received a desk appearance ticket and was released on his own recognizance. The comedy club had no comment on the incident, only to say that Spears would not be performing Saturday night (as had been scheduled) so that "he could deal with his personal issues."

Diana Ross Got Booed
Diana Ross was performing at the 2008 Air Jamaica Jazz & Blues Festival this past Saturday and got booed because she refused to allow organizers to put her performance up on the big screen. "It was at the eleventh hour that her manager said she wouldn't allow us to IMAG (In Vivo Imaging) her performance," said a concert promoter, "and, if any cameras were present, she would not go on stage." Hisses turned to full-out boos when Ross started her set with Supremes hits -- and the crowd beyond the first section couldn't see her -- and the booing continued throughout her set. Attendees paid from $80 to $307 to watch Ross -- who was reportedly paid $300,000 for the gig -- perform the hour-long set with fellow headliners Mary Mary, Billy Ocean and KoKo Taylor.
