We certainly didn't break many laws...and our overriding fear was that if we did do something even mildly wrong THAT DAD WOULD FIND OUT. Celebrities, in general, must be able to turn that button in their brain off pretty easily. Nevermind, the zillions of fans who are now disappointed. It is one reason that I think there could be a companion TV show to "E"...called CAN YOU BELIEVE THEY DID THIS? LET'S NOT PAY ATTENTION TO HIM/HER ANY MORE.

Do you know what his blood alcohol level was or the circumstances? We are big supporters of MADD and see DWI as a big problem. The other side of that - and we support it - is that California laws and enforcement are EXTREMELY strict. That BS that Paris Hilton's attorney put out about her being picked on because she was a celebrity almost earned one of my shoes through the TV! I am taking a person every week to community service work and AA meetings because of a DWI and he doesn't show up on any celebrity radar out here. If they caught him driving, he'd be in jail immediately! Yeah, I notice you have him listed under DWI. Do you know what his blood alcohol level was or the circumstances?

Shoulda picked David Hasselhof instead? (Part of my posting strategy is newsworthiness, links etc. Ty seems like a good guy, albeit a bit of a drinker.) Hey Conrad…I agree and modify my selection.

He is a humanitarian in a Show Biz sort of way. He picks someone with a heartbreaking story and gives their home a big makeover. Kind of like the old "Queen for a Day" (anyone else here old enough to remember that?) but a good deal more sincere than that show was. He picks people like kids with diseases or wounded Iraq vets.
