Sara Ure Robinson Wins $225,000 “Booty Slapping” Lawsuit Against Dennis Rodman

Sara Ure Robinson was fired by the Hard Rock hotel/casino after complaining about Dennis Rodman’s behavior. Now Sara Robinson has won a $225,000 judgement against perv Dennis Rodman.

Dennis Rodman’s freaky behavior has gotten him into trouble yet again.

A motion for a default judgment was approved on Monday after the former NBA star, Dennis Rodman, failed to respond to a lawsuit filed against him and the Hard Rock by Sara Ure.

Sara said in 2006,  while she was working as a beverage manager at the Hard Rock hotel, that Dennis Rodman made a scene by grabbing her, forcing her to dance with him and slapping her butt.

Sara  filed a discrimination claim against the hotel, claiming she was fired in retaliation for complaining about a hostile work environment there. Those claims were resolved in mediation.

“Defendant Rodman injured and humiliated Ms. Ure at her place of employment, which is simply one of the latest incidents in an almost decade-long practice of violence and blatant disregard for the safety of others,” attorneys Kathleen England and Jocelyn Cortez said in their April 21 motion for a default judgment.

In seeking $125,000 in compensatory damages and $100,000 in punitive damages, they said the slim, 5-foot 10-inch Ure suffered embarrassment, humiliation and anxiety at the hands of the 6-foot-7-inch, 210-pound Rodman.

Sara’s attorneys stated that Dennis Rodman “grabbed and held Ms. Ure against her will, forced her to ‘dance’ with him in the middle of her place of employment, and rubbed his body against hers. Defendant Rodman then smacked Ms. Ure on the bottom when she managed to escape from his grip. This demeaning assault and battery occurred in front of at least one of Ms. Ure’s subordinate employees, her co-workers and Hard Rock Casino patrons.”

Ure, the attorneys said, “broke into tears and left work early, which was embarrassing,” and later had to explain Rodman’s attack to her fiancé and to Hard Rock officials

Charlotte Observer NASCAR Reporter David Poole Dies At 50 (Photo)

Motoracing Writer David Poole photos

 

David Poole, the NASCAR’s  motorsports columnist for the Charlotte Observer, died Tuesday of a heart attack at 50.

Charlotte Observer NASCAR reporter, David Poole, had a heart attack in his Stanfield home. Poole’s daughter called 911 and he was transported to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

Poole was in his 13th season covering NASCAR for the Observer. David Poole covered this past weekend race at Talladega saying:

“Is racing at Talladega out of control?” he wrote. “I say it is, and Carl Edwards’ crash Sunday into the catch-fence in the tri-oval of the 2.66-mile track merely reinforced that opinion.

“Does somebody have to die before we’ve decided we don’t have control?”

David Poole was a four-time winner of the National Motorsports Press Association’s writer of the year.

In addition Poole was the host of “The Morning Drive”, a weekly show on Sirius NASCAR Radio.

“The NASCAR community is stunned and saddened by the loss of David Poole,” Brian France, NASCAR Chairman and CEO, said in a statement. “David was as passionate about NASCAR as anyone and had very definitive opinions about the sport. He served the industry, and most importantly the fans, through his reporting and commentary in the Charlotte Observer and Sirius Satellite Radio.”

Driver Jimmie Johnson added in a statement, “I am shocked and saddened to hear the news that our sport has lost David Poole. My thoughts go out to his family. He was someone who loved our sport and wasn’t afraid to voice his opinion. That’s what made him one of the most respected members of our media. I know I worked twice as hard to make sure I earned his respect. I am proud of what he has done for our sport and I know he will be truly missed by everyone in NASCAR.”

David Poole is  survived by his wife, two sons, daughter, and one grandson. Our condolences to his family.

Megan Fox “Jonah Hex” Pictures

Megan Fox

 

Megan Fox looks super tiny on the Jonah Hex movie set. Check out more pictures of Megan Fox in Jonah Hex

 

Megan Fox, 22, was definitely rocking her sexy black corset with thigh-highs, and boots on the set of Jonah Hex in Louisiana last week.

Fox is tagged to play a character named Leila, there isn’t much information out on her character. The plot of Jonah Hex was described as:  “In the Wild West, a scarred bounty hunter tracks a voodoo practitioner bent on liberating the South by raising an army of the undead.”

Josh Brolin is playing the lead character.

Judging by Megan’s outfit, she looks to be a showgirl but has been rumored to be playing a prostitute. Either way, Megan looks awesome!

Many women would love to look like Megan but she doesn’t seem to think so highly of herself saying : “I am pretty sure I am a doppelganger for Alan Alda. I’m a tranny. I’m a man. I’m so painfully insecure.”

Asked about her diet secrets, she admitted, “I do have a 22-inch waist, I will say that.”

You can certainly see that tiny waist in that tight corset!  What do you guys think of Megan Fox’s outfit in Jonah Hex? Sexy huh?

Jessica Biel’s New Film not Theater-Worthy

powderblue.jpg

Jessica Biel stars as a stripper in “Powder Blue” with Ray Liotta, Forest Whitaker, Patrick Swayze and Lisa Kudrow. The movie follows the lives of four people and they all cross paths by Christmas Eve.

Thats sucks for Biel. Here she is stripping down and the movie won’t even be released in theaters! She must not be a very desirable actress. You would think if a famous actress is taking off her clothes, people will come to  see the movie. She isn’t even going to get that chance. It seems like she took her clothes off for nothing–she’s not going to make crap off of this film.

 Image Entertainment will release the movie on DVD on May 26.

Nadya Suleman Gets Tattoo In Honor Of Kids.. Hmm… Like Angelina!

Octomom Tattoo

“Octomom” Nadya Suleman decided to get a tattoo in honor of her children. And we’re sure it has nothing to do with an Angelina Jolie obsession. Yeah, right! Read more and see photo of Nady Suleman’s tattoo below.

If you didn’t already believe “Octomom” was crazy, then you may now.  After denying that she is obsessed with Angelina Jolie… Nadya Suleman has changed her appearance to resemble Jolie, Suleman was a stripper who called herself “Angelina”, and now is getting a tattoo dedicated to her children. Just strange don’t you guys think?

And while most new mothers would be at home caring for their newborns (not to mention eight newborns), Nadya is out getting inked.  This may irk some of us who have heard she is applying for government benefits for her family while spending money on a tat!

Radaronline.com followed Octomom along and was there when she got her new ink. Here’s an excerpt from Radaronline:

Nadya Suleman has paid the ultimate tribute to her children – she immortalized them in ink! Octo-Mom gets her first tattoo in 16 years at Kustom Kulture in Hollywood and RadarOnline.com gives you the exclusive video of the whole trip — and the finished product!

As RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, Nadya already has seven tattoos, but apparently they are in places where only Octo-Daddy has seen! Nadya wanted another tattoo to celebrate her new babies — and this time she gets it in a highly visible place, and it’s not small!

Jewel and Ty Murray Got Married to Have Kids

jeweltymurray12.jpg 

In an interview  Jewel said that they are going to start trying to have kids. She also said that was the reason they got married as they have been together for eleven years. Ty Murray also confirmed that they are ready to have kids.  I think this couple is a good role model for the public as two people should be married before they start having kids.

Jay Leno is out of the hospital and back at home, and returning to work on Monday. 

 

Leno admitted himself to a hospital and stayed Thursday night, cancelling his first Tonight Show recording since taking over for Johnny Carson in 1992.

Jay Leno was released on Friday afternoon to return to his Los Angeles home.

Tonight Show spokeswoman Tracy St. Pierre squashed internet rumors saying that Leno had suffered a heart attack, although she couldn’t provide details of what ailed him.

“No!” she told the New York Daily News. “He’s doing fine … He was kidding around with the hospital staff and running his monologue jokes by the doctors and the nurses.”

She also denied speculation that Leno had food poisoning, but declined to elaborate.

Jay Leno will be hosting the Tonight Show for the final time on May 29 after 17 years. But he will continue on NBC, with a Monday-through-Friday program at 10 p.m., starting in the fall.

Conan O’Brien will host the Tonight Show beginning June 1st in the slot that follows the local 11:00 p.m. news.
