O.J. Simpson has asked Donald Trump to put him on the next season of “Celebrity Apprentice.”

A source at NBC told Page Six, “Simpson really wants to do it. Trump and NBC are thinking about it, but are being very cautious. There’s a certain amount of heat associated with Simpson.”

I’d hate to see what O.J. does if he gets fired.

Natalie Portman gets peed on

New reports have surfaced indication Paul McCartney’s ex-wife, Heather Mills, used to be a prostitute. (Why am I not surprised?)

According to the report:

Former prostitute Denise Hewitt has claimed that Heather Mills was paid £10,000 a night to work as a high-class escort.

Hewitt revealed on the Channel 4 documentary Heather Mills: What Really Happened that the animal rights activist performed lesbian sex for cash during the ’80s…

Mills repeatedly denied rumours that she worked as a prostitute and claimed the reports were part of an ongoing smear campaign by the media.

Hewitt also claims that Mills told Paul McCartney she would leave him if he didn’t marry her. The road not taken, eh, Paul? And when his back was turned:

[Hewitt] said Heather had made disparaging remarks about her future husband’s age, saying: “Well look at me, I’m marrying an old man with bigger tits than me.”

Girl To Have Surgery On Large Facial Tumor
Tumor Could Grow, Causing Vietnamese Teen To Suffocate

MIAMI — A Vietnamese girl with a 17-pound facial tumor is awaiting life-saving surgery that will restore her ability to eat and speak.

Lai Thi Dao, 15, suffers from a Schwannoma tumor that has been growing since she was 3. The tumor has severely disfigured her face and kept her from attending school.

"She had been with no treatment for the last 10 years," said Dr. Jesus Gomez, who is performing the surgery. "Something that started like a small black bean at the tongue now has become this huge tumor."

Doctors at the University of Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital said the tumor, likely the largest Schwannoma tumor ever reported in the world, has grown so large that she has difficulty talking, eating and sleeping. They said it would likely cut off her throat's passageway, which could cause her to suffocate.

The tumor is scheduled to be removed in a 10-hour surgery April 29.

The International Kids Fund is trying to raise money to help pay for her surgery.

Amy Winehouse carried around a manuscript for her autobiography in London on Tuesday night. Badabing!

In typical Wino fashion, Ames had a crazy evening last night.

- Wino leaves a bar in Camden at 3:30 A.M. this morning and decided to get in a little late night shopping.
- Amy and a friend both have cigarettes inside a local shop, despite the no smoking signs.
- The Rehab singer picks up some newspapers and magazines and leaves without paying!
- After she returned home, she found herself locked out of her house!
- She then got into a dispute with a taxi driver over her cab fare!

Bless her heart.

Poor Wino!

Katie Couric just can't catch a break.

Evening network news ratings for the week of April 14th have just been released and Katie's ratings really really sucked.

In fact, last week's numbers sank to a record ratings low for Katie and the CBS evening news team.

Katie's CBS broadcast averaged 5.39 million viewers for the week.

NBC's Brian Williams avereaged 8.1 million viewers and Charles Gibson at ABC, 7.51 million.

On April 18th, CBS president Leslie Moonves made an appearance at a CBS evening news staff meeting and talked about how 'proud' he was of Couric and that she would be the network’s flagship anchor for a long time to come.

Let's see if he lives up to his words should ratings for Katie get worse! The way things are going for Couric, there's only one place left to go: even lower!

Reports are surfacing that CNN has agreed to an extension of Larry King's contract.

The live talk show anchor will now stay on through 2010, which will be beyond his 77th birthday.

Poor Katie Couric, she was hoping to get his spot one day!

A current New York Times about Katie's post-CBS future claims, "Couric discussed several things she might do if she left the anchor post, according to the executives, including a daily talk show to be syndicated by CBS, or replacing Larry King in a prime-time position on CNN."

Too bad it won't happen. She'd kill the show with poor ratings anyways!

Although CNN doesn't comment on employee contracts, a spokesperson did say, "Larry is the best there is, he'll be here for a long time."

Let's hope he doesn't die on air!

As you probably recall, Richie Sambora was charged with DUI late last month. The idiot was driving, while intoxicated, with his 10 year old daughter in the car!

According to new reports, Sambora has just plea-bargained his DUI case and plead No Contest to driving drunk.

Luckily for him, the DUI charge was dismissed and prosecutors did not file child endangerment charges.

Why Not?!?!

Apparently, the cops and prosecutors felt that the evidence they had didn't support the child endangerment charge.

Yea right. If you're driving with an alcohol level about the legal limit, you ARE endangering that child, yourself, and everyone else on the road!

When Sambora was pulled over, he had a blood alcohol level of .13, way over the legal limit of .08. And his charges were dismissed?

Luckily for Sambora, he had one of the most effective criminal defense lawyers with him, Blair Berk, who has represented several celebs such as Lindsay Lohan and Mel Gibson. And, also in his favor, the judge (who is probably related to the judge that sentenced Nicole Richie to jail for only a day) wasn't trying to get publicity or teach celebs 'a lesson', like the one who put away Paris Hilton for lesser charges.

Sambora will be placed on informal probation for three years and will only be required to pay a $390 fine, plus penalties. The total will come out to be less than $2,000. He will also need to attend an alcohol education course.

Someone got off too easy!

Shannon Elizabeth has been caught cheating with her dancing partner Derek Hough.

This comes just days after her boyfriend revealed he was delighted with her dance floor teammate.

Her boyfriend was afraid she’d be paired with dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy, who became a sex symbol when he partnered with Spice Girl Mel B last season.

Elizabeth says, “My boyfriend saw Derek walk through the door and it was OK. He knows I’ve never dated a blond. Plus, Derek’s 22 and I’m a few year’s older.”  Actually, she’s 34.

However, Elizabeth and her new boy toy were caught hugging, kissing and rolling around in the sand on a Malibu beach.  I’m sure that was part of their dance routine.
