Rapper Busta Ryhmes was busted again. This time, he’s charged with beating up one of his drivers. Rhymes, 34, turned himself in Wednesday night and was booked on a misdemeanor assault charge at a Manhattan police station. Wearing a red, long-sleeved shirt and jeans, Rymes was led out of the station late Wednesday. He’s due in court in lower Manhattan Thursday. The rap star, whose real name is Trevor Smith, was charged with assaulting one of his limo drivers in a dispute over 19 days of pay the driver says he was owed. The man told police that Rhymes had punched and kicked him numerous times in a confrontation outside a lower Manhattan building on Dec. 26. This is the latest legal problem for the rapper. Last August, Rhymes was charged with assaulting a man who spit on his car after a Randall’s Island concert. Police have also sought to question Rhymes as a potential witness in the shooting death of his bodyguard, Israel Ramirez, last February — a case that’s still unsolved.

Why do all these celebs think they can get away without paying people. I am proud of that limo driver for actually going to the police.

When he failed field sobriety tests, the pugilist was arrested for driving under the influence. A subsequent search turned up two small bag of cocaine in Tyson’s pocket and another bag in his car.

I think that is the best mugshot of the year because he looks like he is sticking his tongue out and it comes two days before the end of the year! It was so worth the wait!

Director Gus Van Sant was arrested early yesterday morning on a drunk driving charge in Oregon, The Smoking Gun has learned. Van Sant, 54, was popped at 1:40 AM by Portland cops and booked into the Multnomah County jail, where the below mug shot was snapped. According to a police spokesman, Van Sant was stopped at a traffic light when cops noticed his 2006 Porsche Cayenne’s headlights were off. Van Sant was then pulled over and officers detected "glassy eyes, slurred speech, and the smell of alcohol," said Sgt. Brian Schmautz. The famed director failed field sobriety tests and blew a .19 on a Breathalyzer (more than twice the state’s legal limit of .08). Van Sant, who was nominated for an Academy Award for 1997’s "Good Will Hunting," has also directed "Elephant," "Drugstore Cowboy," and "My Own Private Idaho." He is scheduled for a January 17 court appearance on the misdemeanor driving under the influence charge.

My Private Idaho was one of the worst movies ever. So it is kind of like he is doing time, like I felt when I saw that movie.

Natasha Lyonne finally turns herself in! |
December 15th, 2006 under Arrested. [ Comments: none ]

Actress Natasha Lyonne, the star of "American Pie" accused of threatening to sexually molest a dog, turned herself in at a New York court on Friday. A bench warrant was issued for her arrest in January after Lyonne, who has also appeared in "Blade," and "Scary Movie 2," missed four court hearings. The 27-year-old faced a number of charges including criminal mischief, harassment and trespassing after accusations she threatened to sexually molest her former neighbor’s dog and ripped a mirror off the wall during a 2004 argument. At the Manhattan Criminal Court appearance, drug counselor Heather Hayes said Lyonne had completed an in-patient drug program in February and continued to attend outpatient rehabilitation groups. Judge Anthony Ferrara said the charges would be dropped if the actress stayed out of trouble for the next six months. In the court complaint, Lyonne’s former roommate claimed Lyonne trashed their apartment and then banged on a neighbor’s door, rushed into that apartment and picked up her dog, telling the woman, "I’m going to sexually molest your dog." Lyonne pleaded guilty in 2002 to driving under the influence of alcohol in Miami. She was fined, sentenced to six months probation and 50 hours community service.

I wonder if this will effect the filming of Goy Band? And seriously who thought she would still be alive today? It is a miracle.

I wonder if he was heading to the Ben & Jerry’s factory to get some Phish Food ice cream? And poor guy could only get a paper plaque for his mug shot. Doesn’t his picture look more like a driver’s license photo than a mug shot?
