Does anyone remember Jessica Sierra, a top ten American Idol finalist in 2005? The 21-year-old is in the spotlight with her recent felony battery charges. The ex-Idol was booked into the Hillsborough Jail on the charge of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, possession of cocaine, and introduction of contraband into a correctional facility.

The weapon wielded in the assault was a heavy glass. The incident reportedly occurred at a local café. Sierra was released Sunday afternoon on $11,500 bail and there’s been no information released about whether the fallen hopeful starlet has acquired representation for these serious charges.

The British media recently reported that Boy George has been arrested yet again related to a shocking incident involving a 28-year-old Norwegian he met on the gay dating website Gaydar. The charges include assault and false imprisonment.

Reports indicate that the Norwegian had agreed to pose for photos but was instead chained to a wall in his apartment and attacked by Boy George and another unnamed man with a box of sex toys. The 28-year-old claims he was able to escape wearing his underwear. Once free, he placed a call to the police Saturday morning 4/28/07.

It is definately time for Boy George to lay off the drugs - he crossed the line into depravity apparently.

Courtney Love has announced that she’s going to have a Christie’s auction in which she plans to sell most of her late husband, Kurt Cobain’s, personal items. The raucous 42-year-old rocker recently told Spinner.com that her house “is like a mausoleum.” Love and Cobain married in 1992 which is the same year their daughter Francis Bean was born. Kurt Cobain, frontman for the band Nirvana, tragically committed suicide in 1994.

A date for the proposed auction hasn’t been announced. Love says she plans on giving “a bunch of the money to charity.” Love apparently feels that her daughter, 14-year-old Francis Bean, will be satisfied with a sweater, a guitar, and song lyrics written by her deceased father.

Love insinuates in her interview with Spinner.com that selling the items belonging to her husband will somehow allow her to move on in her current and future romantic involvements. She’s quoted as saying, “I still wear his pajamas to bed. How am I ever going to go form another relationship in my lifetime wearing Kurt’s pajamas?”

Carmen Electra has broken her three month commitment as special guest star in Hans Klok’s new show, “The Beauty of Magic,” at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino. The 35-year-old bombshell apparently has scheduling conflicts that will keep her from working in Vegas.

Guests of the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino won’t be disappointed though. The sexy starlet Pamela Anderson has agreed to replace Electra in the Vegas show. Anderson popped out of a box at the former Aladdin casino-hotel on the Las Vegas Strip to announce the change of line-up. The show is scheduled to open June 2. Pamela Anderson says the appearance is her dream of being a Vegas show girl come true.

Marcia Valentine is the 44-year-old woman accused of stalking Sandra Bullock and her husband motorcycle mogul Jesse James. Valentine’s outrageous and disturbing behavior began when Jesse James found her lying in front of the couple’s garage door at their Orange County, CA residence. Valentine allegedly screamed obscenities at James and attempted to run him over several times with her silver Mercedes before driving away. James called the police and offered them a description of the out-of-control woman. She was later arrested and James was able to pick her out of a line-up.

Valentine’s bond was set at $25,000 which she was able to post. The woman has no prior police record and is facing charges of assault with a deadly weapon.

What are these crazy people thinking when they target celebrities for no apparent reason? What could possibly be the motive behind such bizarre behavior? Comments anyone?

John Travolta recently told the “Irish Independent” that he’s as famous as Elvis and Marilyn Monroe but that he escaped an early death like the icons because of Scientology.

The “Wild Hogs” star may be a bit premature in claiming such legendary status. I can see the similarities between Elvis – he has resurrected a failing career several times and is currently considered a Hollywood A-lister. But it’s doubtful if Travolta’s stardom will endure as long as those of Elvis or Marilyn. His roles as Vinny Barbarino on the 1970s sitcom “Welcome Back Kotter” and his emergence as a movie star with “Saturday Night Fever” (1976) and “Grease” (1977) hardly give him status as a cultural icon.

Travolta says about his controversial religion in the Irish publication, “People make judgments about it [Scientology], but often they don’t know what they’re talking about,” Travolta said. “I would advise anyone who wants to know about it to read up on it. We [the Church of Scientology] are only getting bigger and we help people all over the world, from disaster zones to drug rehabilitation.”
