The Danger of Jennifer Lopez Movies
In Milton, Florida, 34-year-old Shannon Wriska was arrested after she allegedly attempted to burn her husband's boat, go-kart and Jacuzzi. The husband, Robert Wriska, said this was all the result of her insane jealousy after she found him watching a Jennifer Lopez movie. When deputies arrived, they noticed a boat parked in front of a trailer was partially burned. Flames had reached the side of the trailer where the couple lived. Robert also told police Shannon drove off in her vehicle with his dogs saying she was going to "put them to sleep." Of course she claims she did nothing wrong and Robert is the one who set everything on fire. The case is being investigated by the state Fire Marshal's Office. (NWF Daily News)

T.I.'s ecstasy arrest has caused a serious stink with some of his sponsors -- in fact, TMZ has learned the people behind AXE body spray are considering kicking the rapper to the curb.
A rep for AXE tells TMZ they're "troubled by [T.I.'s] arrest" and have been forced into "reviewing our promotional activities" with the rapper. Translation -- it doesn't look good for T.I.
T.I. -- real name Clifford Harris -- locked down a deal with AXE earlier this year after promising the company that he was "working to become a more positive role model."
So far, T.I. is still featured on the company's... but it smells like that could change at any moment.

Snooki spent day 1 of her community service last Sunday taking care of neglected animals ...AND… spent most of the day picking up their crap.
According to the general manager of Popcorn Park Zoo in New Jersey -- the animal shelter where Snooks volunteered on Sunday -- the world famous guidette spent her time cleaning out animal pens ... a task that involved a whole lot of poop removal.
As we previously reported, Snooks was in court YESTERDAY -- where she pled guilty to a crime following her sloppy arrest in Seaside Heights back in July -- and the judge sentenced her to two days of community service ... on top of a $533 fine.
She already got credit for her day at Popcorn Park -- and according to the judge, she'll spend her second day with animal control on the Shore.

The All New Invisible Bra!
European surgeons are now offering the new "invisible bra" which got its name because the bra is worn under the skin! Six surgeons in the U.K. now offer the cone-shaped polyester mesh support, called Breform, which can be inserted under the skin of the breast. Unlike silicone implants that usually last 10 years, the internal bra system was expected to last a lifetime. It'll cost you right around $9,000. Fiona Court, a consultant breast surgeon offering the procedure said, "Over time, with gravity and pressures on the tissue, the skin stretches and you get drooping. The Breform supports the breast tissue into its new position. It is a very safe mesh and you cannot feel it when it is under the skin. It is effectively a thin layer of sponge but it has enough strength to support the breast tissue." Sorry ladies -- the device was licensed for use in Europe but not in the U.S. as of yet. And they say the new invisible bra is not suitable for all women. A mammogram may be needed and age can also be a factor. (FOX News)

The Las Vegas Metropolitan Police admit they gave Paris Hilton special treatment when she was arrested for cocaine possession last month.

Volvo Owner Closing In On 3 Million Miles
A 1966 Volvo is closing in on 3 million miles, the New York owner says. Retired Long Island schoolteacher Irv Gordon hopes to get another 200,000 miles out of the car he purchased for nearly a year’s salary. Now 70, Gordon said he hopes to hit 3 million miles by the time he’s 73.

It’s written by people who know what they are talking about.” He purchased the car new for $4,150.
How To Make Sure You Have a Girl!
Thinking of getting pregnant? Want to make sure you have a girl? Well, no guarantees of course but scientists from Maastricht University in Holland say that cutting out salt and going on a diet of beans and hard cheese gives mothers a better chance of having a daughter. They say the right combination of food and the timing of sex are the key factors. The best foods for having a girl are those rich in calcium and magnesium like yogurt, hard cheese, rhubarb, spinach, tofu, almonds, oatmeal, broccoli and oranges. The researchers say the chances of having a daughter are also increased if couples have regular sex but not on days immediately before or after ovulation. The bizarre findings come after a five-year study involving 172 women aged from 23 to 42 who had all previously given birth to boys but wanted girls. Almost 80 per cent of the women who stuck to the diet ended up giving birth to girls. (News AU)

Lindsay Lohan found herself at the centre of a new controversy on Friday after she was accused of an alleged hit-and-run incident with a baby stroller. Videographer Brayan Jaime claims he caught the Mean Girls star reportedly running a red traffic light in Hollywood on Wednesday, and colliding with a pram being pushed by a nanny. Jaime alleges Lohan fled the scene after the "major hit". But a TMZ.com photographer appears to have come to the troubled actress' rescue, insisting Lohan didn't break any traffic rules, and was driving so slowly she barely touched the stroller. The photographer claims the star was traveling at "like one mile an hour". And, according to his conflicting report, the concerned actress immediately jumped out of her car and checked to see if the nanny and baby were harmed before driving off, satisfied that no one was hurt. No police report had been filed as Wenn went to press. Lohan is struggling to keep her name out of the headlines - the hit-and-run allegations come just a week after she completed a jail sentence and a stint in rehab for violating her probation relating to a 2007 Dui arrest. She was also pulled over by Los Angeles police last week for failing to adhere to a stop sign - but escaped that incident with a warning. (Teen Hollywood)
