This Week in Celebrity...

Das Hass.jpg...Divorce: David Hasselhoff's estranged wife, Pamela Bach, filed for a restraining order against the former Baywatch star, following allegations of domestic violence. The presiding judge did not issue the order, but strongly reccommended the two stay apart. We have no real opinion on this matter, since the only thing we think of when we hear Hasselhoff's name is this video. (Via The Associated Press.)

...Illegal Activity Kept Quiet With Hush Money: Tara Reid is on The Superficial twice this week: once for crashing Rose McGowan's private party and making off with at least twenty grand in diamonds, and once for paying the driver of a car she hit to pretend the accident never happened. Phillyist has spent five minutes trying to come up with a punchline here, but the stories really speak for themselves. (Via The Superficial, twice.)

...Role Models: Actor Brad Renfro is serving ten days in jail on a DUI charge, and is set to appear in court later this month on drug charges. He's already pled guildy to attempted possession of heroin and is expected to go through rehabilitation instead of serving another jail sentence. Just one more child star with a habit. (Via The Associated Press.)

...Plastic Surgery Gone Wrong: As we mentioned before (but it's worth mentioning again), Li'l Kim has told her family that she's worried she's going to spring a leak before her sentence is up. Wait a minute... her boobs aren't real? (Via Philadelphia Daily News.)

...Stupid: Joe Rogan doesn't have anything better to do with his time than attack former fans and post the correspondence on his MySpace blog. Appropriately enough, Rogan lists "shitty movies" as his first "influence," followed by pot and "chimpanzee DNA." Somebody needs a handler... (Via The Superficial.)

...Awesome: Actress Terri Hatcher has disclosed in the latest edition of Vanity Fair that she was sexually molested by her uncle when she was young. The revelation comes following the suicide of a fourteen-year-old girl who had also been molested by her uncle. And, while coming out with this information before the girl's suicide would have, of course, been ideal, we still applaud Hatcher for coming out with this information and getting her uncle behind bars. (Via Yahoo! News.)

...Skanky: Phillyist is pleased to announce its first male recipient of the Celebrity Skanky label: Steve-O, from Jackass. Skanky and absolutely gross. It appears that, on his way in to an exclusive post-Oscars bash, Steve-O took a leak on the red carpet and then proceeded to undress. Completely. Borderline NSFW link follows. (Via What Would Tyler Durden Do?)

...Sad: Dana Reeve, wife of actor Christopher Reeve, passed away this week following a battle with lung cancer. She was forty-four. (Via E! Online.)
