EVANS ACCUSES HUSBAND OF ADULTERY AND ABUSE
LATEST: Country music singer and former DANCING WITH THE STARS contestant SARA EVANS has accused her estranged husband CRAIG SCHELSKE of adultery and abuse.
Sara Evans at the JC Penny Jam Concert for America's Kids Press Conference. Los Angeles, California - 13.06.06
On Thursday (12OCT06), Evans's representative released a surprise statement saying the singer had decided to leave the popular reality show "to give her family her full attention at this difficult time," but did not elaborate on the details surrounding her shocking departure.
Evans filed divorce papers the same day she left the competition in Williamson County, Tennessee, where she cites adultery as the grounds for divorce, along with irreconcilable differences and inappropriate martial conduct.
The couple married in 1993 and have three children ranging in age from two to seven.
The star also requested, and was granted, a temporary restraining order against Schelske and is seeking custody of their children.
In the papers, obtained by US TV show ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT, Evans alleges that Schelske has been storing personal ads looking for sex from an online website on his personal computer.
She also states that he "maintains many pornographic photographs" of himself, along with photographs showing him having sex with other women.
The star also alleges verbal abuse, harassment, excessive consumption of alcohol and adultery.
Evans will address her departure to Dancing With The Stars fans on the 17 October (06) live telecast, which will likely be her final appearance on the show.
US network ABC has not revealed how Evans departure will affect the competition or future broadcasts.
Evans lawyer tells Entertainment Tonight, "Under the circumstances, Sara had no other choice (but to file for divorce)."

USHER'S ILLNESS CAUSES COSTLY CANCELLATIONS
LATEST: R+B star USHER's severe bout of strep throat has forced the star to withdraw from the hit musical CHICAGO which will cost producers nearly half a million dollars in refunds.
Usher joins the cast of 'Chicago' at the Ambassador theatre - Curtain Call. New York City, USA - 22.08.06
The star, real name USHER RAYMOND, was scheduled to give his farewell performance as lawyer BILLY FLYNN on Saturday night (14OCT06) in New York City.
He became ill last Friday (06OCT06) and was forced to cancel a week's worth of shows or risk doing permanent damage to his vocal cords.
Producer BARRY WEISSLER tells the New York Post, "We never expected this. He was very sick last week, and it's just gotten worse. Unfortunately he won't be coming back."
Weissler says the impact on ticket sales has been "horrible" adding, "big refunds."
Since Usher's illness the refund line outside the Ambassador Theatre has stretched halfway down the block with hundreds of disappointed fans demanding their money back.
Refunds are expected to cost producers an estimated $400,000 (GBP222,000).
Despite the last minute losses, Usher's seven-week stint will still be extremely profitable.
He played to packed houses and theatre insiders estimate profits to be around $1.7 million (GBP944,000) for the short, but lucrative run.
Weissler adds, "We just hope Usher gets healthy soon. He was one of the best Billy Flynns we've ever had. He's welcome back any time."

Timbaland, who also produced NELLY FURTADO's hit PROMISCUOUS, claims the hip-hop industry is suffering from tough financial times.
He says, "There was a time...like '97, '98, back when the industry was hot that I was getting $300,000 (GBP167,000) a track. And I was doing ten tracks every two weeks!
"(Now) I stay in the digits, but it's nowhere near where it was."

JOHNSON CAUGHT WITH TEEN PORN STAR
Former MIAMI VICE star DON JOHNSON has been romancing his teen co-star in Italy just months after his wife gave birth to their third child, according to media reports in the US.
DON JOHNSON at The WB Television Network's 2005 All Star Celebration held at the Cabana Club. Hollywood, California - 22.07.05
Johnson has been in Trani, southern Italy filming BASTARDI with 19-year-old porn star SOFIA GUCCI and the romance has reportedly moved off the set.

Gucci's personal manager, who would only identify himself as PAOLO, confirmed the relationship to US publication THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER saying the couple "did go out for dinner together and they were intimate. Sofia told me to say they spent a wonderful few days together. She does know that Don is married, but she doesn't want to say anything else."
Gucci has a hard-core pornography past, appearing in steamy adult films such as DIRTY DANCE and HOT DREAMS. She has also appeared nude on the cover of European magazines.
The five-times married Johnson and current wife KELLEY PHLEGER have three children together and their youngest, DEACON JAMES, was born in April (06).

GIBSON'S COMMENTS SPARKED BY WAR CONFLICT
LATEST: MEL GIBSON's insists he is not anti-Semitic and that the discriminatory statements he made when he was arrested were sparked by the ongoing war between Israel and Lebanon.
Mel Gibson's interview on US breakfast show Good Morning America. USA - 13.10.06
The Oscar-winner was arrested on 28 July (06) for drink driving and claims the anti-Semitic statements he made at the time were because of the war, which had begun 17 days earlier.
He tells DIANE SAWYER on US TV show GOOD MORNING AMERICA, "Now, maybe it was just that very day that Lebanon and Israel were at it, you know."
After spending several minutes discussing the crisis, Gibson finally said he wanted to face the camera and make a statement.
He said, "Let me be real clear here, in sobriety, sitting here, in front of you, on national television.
"I don't believe that Jews are responsible for all the wars in the world. I mean that's an outrageous, drunken statement."
Gibson said he felt "ashamed" of his behaviour and claims he is speaking out now about his arrest because he didn't want to wait until later and be accused of talking about the incident to gain publicity for his new film APOLCALYPTO, when is set for release in December (06).

Sienna Miller Leaving The Groucho Club. London, England - 05.10.06
The ALFIE star reportedly ignored doorman DAN KOVACS' request for ID at the entrance and ordered a drink before she was asked to leave.
According to Folino's Young's Tavern owner PENNY FOLINO, a fuming Miller stated, "I am Sienna Miller. I am a famous actress!"
Doorman Kovacs then retorted, "I'm Dan Kovacs and I'm for real!"
The bar has cashed in on the controversy by selling T-shirts on their website saying, "Hey, Sienna!" on the front and "I'm For Real!" on the back.
A portion of the money earned from the T-shirts will be donated to a sudden infant death syndrome charity in Pennsylvania.
Miller has slammed reports she threw a tantrum after being ejected from the bar saying, "I wholeheartedly refute the allegations that I in any way acted in an inappropriate manner."
Meanwhile, Folino stands by her claims, saying, "I can't compete against a famous actress, but I can tell you one thing - I'm not a liar - she is."
Last week (ends08OCT06) Miller apologised for referring to Pittsburgh as "s**tsburgh" in an interview with Rolling Stone magazine, claiming her words were taken out of context.

PAPER APOLOGISES TO LLOYD WEBBER
British newspaper The Independent has issued an apology to musical giant SIR ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER, after it claimed his reality TV show HOW DO YOU SOLVE A PROBLEM LIKE MARIA? was fixed (23SEP06).
Andrew Lloyd Webber arrives for The Sir John Betjeman Gala at The Prince of Wales Theatre. London, England - 10.09.06
The paper claimed the outcome of the talent contest to find Maria for the West End production of THE SOUND OF MUSIC had been decided by Lloyd Webber long before the show began, and that the impresario had shown favouritism towards eventual winner CONNIE FISHER.
The paper said, "We would like to make it clear that our article "How do you solve a problem like Maria? Not with a TV show" did not mean to imply that Andrew Lloyd Webber made any attempt to fix the outcome of the BBC show of the same name. We have always accepted the outcome of the show was by public vote.
"We also accept that it was wrong to suggest Andrew Lloyd Webber showed favouritism towards the winner; that a 'plant' was hired and that the winner was recording a CD before the result.
"We apologise to Andrew Lloyd Webber for the distress and embarrassment caused."

CHEVY CHASE SLAMS IRAQ WAR
Comedian CHEVY CHASE has spoken out against the Iraq war - and praised comments by Britain's most senior soldier about withdrawing from the country ''amazing''.
CHEVY CHASE
The US funnyman praised Army General SIR RICHARD DANNATT's recent comments after he claimed British troops should withdraw from Iraq "soon".
He says, "I understand that your top military man has asked for a pull-out. I find that to be an unusual and quite an amazing story.
"The idea of going into Iraq, going into a sovereign country, the ethics of (GEORGE W) BUSH doing that is outrageous. I hope it comes to an end but I think we have already gone over the top.
"What's taken place over the last two years, what Al-Qaeda did to our country, what happened afterwards, going into Iraq, it's hideous to see the photos of American soldiers doing hideous things to prisoners of war. I think it is the time (to speak out).
"I can't believe the reality of the situation we're in today."

MADONNA ADOPTION RAISES PROTESTS
LATEST: MADONNA's application to adopt a Malawian baby has prompted protests from children's and human rights group in the African nation.
Two organisations in Malawi are outraged by the government's decision to approve an interim adoption order for 13-month-old tot DAVID BANDA, whose father YOHAME is still alive.
Madonna and husband GUY RITCHIE flew out of Malawi without their new son yesterday (13OCT06) after spending 10 days in the country, because David is awaiting a passport.
Children's group Eye Of The Child's BONIFACE MANDERE says, "It's not like selling property.
"This process is too short, applying on Tuesday, and yesterday the court gave the OK. I don't think that the High Court has any information about how Madonna is when it comes to child-rearing.
"We are concerned that the High Court has taken a short cut and waived the law. We are registering our concern and will seek clarification from the court, after which we will decide what action to take."
Mandere claims Malawian adoption law demands international adopters live in the country for a year and are regularly assessed by social workers before they can remove the child out of the country.
Human rights group Civil Liberties Committee are joining forces with Eye Of The Child to seek a court injunction to block the adoption.

PHOTOGRAPHER: 'I WAS PUNCHED ON JOLIE FILM SET'
A freelance photographer is accusing security guards protecting the set of ANGELINA JOLIE's latest movie of punching and threatening him at gunpoint.
The Associated Press photographer claims he was threatened on Friday (13OCT06), the second run-in between the star's security and the news media this week.
Jolie and her family are in the western Indian city of Pune to film scenes for the movie A MIGHTY HEART, which is based on the life of slain journalist DANIEL PEARL.
The photographer representing the AP, GUAUTUM SINGH, insists he gained legitimate access to the set, but was accosted by security after giving Jolie his business card.
Singh handed the star his card during a break in filming and was then approached by one American security guard and two Indian guards, all of whom verbally abused him.
Singh says one of the Indian guards punched him in the face and he swung back, also hitting the guard in the face. Then, he said, the other Indian guard "grabbed me and the first guard punched me again".
The photographer says the first Indian guard then drew a gun and said he would be shot if he did not leave.
He was then released and collected his equipment and left the film set.
Jolie did not witness the incident, he said, adding that his face was bruised under his right eye but he was otherwise unhurt.
The actress and her boyfriend BRAD PITT were involved in a dust-up with the media earlier this week (08OCT06) when they were leaving their hotel and one of their security guards roughed up a British photographer trying to take their photo.

The singer's spokeswoman LIZ ROSENBERG confirmed the couple's plans to expand their family to US TV show ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT.

FLUSHED AWAY CLIPS & FEATURETTE
In Theaters November 3, 2006
.jpg)
Director: Cecil Kramer, David Sproxton
Cast: Bill Nighy, Hugh Jackman, Ian McKellen, Jean Reno, Kate Winslet
Synopsis: From DreamWorks Animation and Aardman Features, the teams behind the Oscar®-winning hit “Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit,” comes the computer-animated comedy “Flushed Away.”
Blending Aardman’s trademark style and characterizations with DreamWorks’ state-of-the-art computer animation, “Flushed Away” is a madcap comedy set on and beneath the streets of London. Roddy is a decidedly upper-crust “society mouse” who lives the life of a beloved pet in a posh Kensington flat. When a sewer rat named Syd comes spewing out of the sink and decides he’s hit the jackpot, Roddy schemes to rid himself of the pest by luring him into the “whirlpool.” Syd may be an ignorant slob, but he’s no fool, so it is Roddy who winds up being flushed away into the bustling sewer world of Ratropolis.
There Roddy meets Rita, an enterprising scavenger who works the sewers in her faithful boat, the Jammy Dodger. Roddy immediately wants out, or rather, up; Rita wants to be paid for her trouble; and, speaking of trouble, the villainous Toad—who royally despises all rodents equally, making no distinction between mice and rats—wants them iced…literally. The Toad dispatches his two hapless hench-rats, Spike and Whitey, to get the job done.
When they fail, the Toad has no choice but to send to France for his cousin—that dreaded mercenary, Le Frog.
