The Hit for Haiti exhibition match at Indian Wells started out great with a well played women’s doubles match. The men’s doubles match was a dream match between Andre Agassi, Rafael Nadal, Pete Sampras, and Roger Federer.
Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi got into a very uncomfortable confrontation halfway through the set, and the match was very tense the rest of the night.
Agassi started teasing Sampras about not being loose and not having fun, so Sampras decided to have fun by imitating Agassi’s walk. Agassi then fired back at Sampras for being cheap because he tipped a parking valet attendant only one dollar at some point in the past.
Sampras was visibly upset the rest of the night, and the match became very tense and turned a fun charity event into a catfight between two legends.
Agassi and Sampras seem to still be bitter rivals, and definitely have some issues to work out. This is a far contrast between Federer and Nadal. They were unforunately caught in the middle of Agassi and Sampras’s fued, but handled themselves with true class during the event.
This is one of the most uncomfortable situations I have ever seen on live TV.
Agassi started it! Given the event was for charity, I would think they could have put the attitudes on a shelf for the day.

The most riveting face-off during Sunday’s Oscar ceremony came early: When producer Elinor Burkett wrestled the microphone away from director-producer Roger Ross Williams after their film, “Music by Prudence,” won for best documentary short.
What really happened? We reached both shortly after by cell phone, and got both sides of the story. We first reached Burkett – a onetime Salon contributor who spends much of her time in Zimbabwe – as she took a smoking break as the proceedings continued inside:
People are already saying you “pulled a Kanye.” What happened?
BURKETT:What happened was the director and I had a bad difference over the direction of the film that resulted in a lawsuit that has settled amicably out of court. But there have been all these events around the Oscars, and I wasn’t invited to any of them. And he’s not speaking to me. So we weren’t even able to discuss ahead of the time who would be the one person allowed to speak if we won. And then, as I’m sure you saw, when we won, he raced up there to accept the award. And his mother took her cane and blocked me. So I couldn’t get up there very fast.
Can you explain the reason behind the conflict?
BURKETT:The movie was supposed to be about the entire band, Liyana. And the [band members] were very clear they did not want to participate if it ended up being just about one person. The director and HBO decided to focus solely on Prudence . . .
About 15 minutes later, Salon reached director-producer Roger Ross Williams by cell phone as he celebrated backstage with family and friends.
How did that happen?
WILLIAMS:Only one person is allowed to accept the award. I was the director, and she was removed from the project nearly a year ago, but she was able to still qualify as a producer on the project, and be an official nominee. But she was very angry — she actually removed herself from the project – because she wanted more creative control.
But couldn’t you decide ahead of time who would speak?
WILLIAMS:That was handled by the publicist for the academy. I don’t know what they told her. The academy is very clear that only one person can speak. I own the film. She has no claim whatsoever. She has nothing to do with the movie. She just ambushed me. I was sort of in shock.
You seemed to run up there pretty fast. Didn’t you see her coming up the aisle? What did you think was going to happen when she got there?
WILLIAMS:I just expected her to stand there. I had a speech prepared.
She claims she found the movie’s story, that she brought it to you.
WILLIAMS:No, not at all. The truth is that she saw the band perform [in Zimbabwe], and told me about that, and then I opened up a dialogue with the [King George VI School & Centre for Children with Physical Disabilities] school and went on my own – which you would’ve heard about in my speech — and spent $6,000 going to Africa shooting myself. And when people expressed interest in the film, I asked her to come on board. And then I regretted that decision. Then she sued.
They’re saying it looked like she pulled a Kanye.
WILLIAMS:She did! She pulled a Kanye. And it’s a shame, because this is such positive, happy film.

Jessica Simpson’s sexy dancing reportedly caused a big fight between two men when she had a night out at nightclub Jane’s House in Hollywood.
Jessica, who was spotted having her boobs fondled the other day by her best gay, was apparently burning up the dancefloor when some guy came over and touched her. This didn’t settle well with one of her male friends who started an argument.
Sadly no punches were thrown, my question is who gets in a club fight and doesn’t throw a punch? It all went down when Jessica was doing her dancing a group of fraterintity guys stopped and watched her when oen fo them put his hands on her waist and pulled him closer to her. She gave the impression she didn’t want him near her so her friend came over and told him to leave.
An onlooker said “The guy was clearly offended and told Jessica’s friend to ‘mind his own business’. Jessica looked kind of panicked and she didn’t know what to say, so she just sort of wriggled her way back to her seat. But now the guys were screaming at each other. There were a lot of expletives flying back and forth. Jessica stood up and peeked her head outside the VIP section. It looked like she was looking for a security guard.”
Sadly when security came over it all ended pretty quickly and quietly, but I can just imagine Jessica Simpson dancing on the dancefloor and then a huge fight breaking out over her moves. She can never do anything right can she?
It may well be over romantically between Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson, but that doesn’t mean that emotions and tempers aren’t still running high.
They are — so high in fact that the twosome got into a bitter, heated fight Wednesday night, which culminated in Lohan throwing a glass full of vodka in Ronson’s face!
“Sam was working her usual weekly gig DJing at Crown bar,” an eyewitness to the altercation tells RadarOnline.com. “Lindsay turned up around 11 pm and she was in the mood for trouble!
“Lindsay was drinking straight out of a bottle of vodka and I saw her take an orange prescription bottle out of her bag and pop a couple of pills that she said were Adderal, she even offered some of the pills to a friend that was with her.
“Lindsay was trying to get Sam’s attention, but she was working and studiously ignored Lindsay. You could see Lindsay getting more and more worked up the more Sam didn’t pay her any attention. At one point Lindsay was dirty dancing with this really pretty girl right in front of Sam, obviously to try and make her jealous.
“Sam just got sick of it all in the end though and started taunting Lindsay about her being all drunk and messed up. She said to Lindsay, “Why don’t you just have another drink?” and even told her, “You’re a disgrace”.
“That made Lindsay just totally flip out on Sam. She picked up a drink and threw it straight in her face! Sam was absolutely furious and picked up some DJ equipment that was by her and threw that at Lindsay. It was crazy!
In other news, we’ve discovered Lindsay Lohan lives like a pig:

Imagine going to see your favorite artist in concert and they jump off the stage and start punching you in the face. Well in the video below this happened to one Kid Cudi fan.
This all went down at a concert in Vancouver over the weekend when Michael Sharpe got punched in the face by the R&B star.
Sharpe says that one fan threw up his wallet on stage but when Cudi threw it back into the crowd he accidentally caught it so he threw it back up, this didn’t settle too well with Cudi who jumped off the stage and started to punch him.
Sharpe says that he isn’t going to press charges, he tells TMZ“I’m not upset, I’m not going to be that person. I just want to meet him and be like ‘I’m the guy you punched.’ I’m not going to press charges.”
If this happened to me I would seriously kick the living shit out of Kid Cudi, well I’d try before security got me.
Apparently one Sheboygan County Jail inmate isn’t a fan of “The Office.” Prosecutors said an argument over the NBC sitcom led to a scuffle that resulted in a fresh felony charge against one inmate.
The criminal complaint filed this week says two inmates were watching the show last week when 18-year-old Shacoya S. Crawley told them she wanted to watch something else.
The complaint said the inmates refused to give her the remote, so she pulled the hair of a 33-year-old woman and hit her in the face.
A message left Thursday with Crawley’s attorney wasn’t immediately returned.
Crawley was being held on charges of arson and reckless endangerment for allegedly setting fire to a mop after an acquaintance wouldn’t answer her knocks on the door.
Now The Office needs to spoof this — a complete riot!

Clark Gable III, the grandson of Hollywood’s most famous actor ever, was stabbed in the rib cage at a house party near Los Angeles.
It all went down in Calabasas last month, it’s reported that Clark Gable III got into it with some guests after he allegedly called somebody a very bad name. A fight broke out and someone plunged a knife into Gable.
Gable suffered lung damage and spent a week in the hospital. Judging by the “thumbs up” from the picture, he’s doing just fine.
One person has been arrested and authorities are looking for another suspect.
He looks quite a bit like his grandfather, don’t you think?
On fetishes: “I don’t really have any weird fetishes but I once had a boyfriend who was really turned on by my feet. I twas a bit disturbing when he spent ages at the bottom of the bed playing with my feet. I’d be lying there thinking, ‘what are you doing down there? I’m up
here!’”
On lesbian action: “I’ve never got it on with another girl but I know a lot of girls who have. I don’t think it’s necessarily because they fancy girls – more because they know it turns blokes on. I don’t think it’s a bad thing – never say never and all that – but I’ve never really thought about women in that way. Mind you, Megan Fox is really hot and Carmen Electra’s amazing too.”
On phone sex: “I think every couple have phone sex – or at least talk dirty on the phone to each other – especially if they live far apart or have to travel a lot for work. I’m always off on shoots, so sometimes it’s nice to talk dirty on the phone!”
On sex outdoors: “Having sex in the open air is very risky because if you got caught it would be really embarrassing – but that’s what makes it such an exciting thing to do. People should do whatever takes their fancy if you want to have outdoor sex, go for it. I’ve had the urge to do it when I’ve been on holiday abroad because no one knows me.”
On sex tapes: “I think every couple considers making a sex tape at some stage in their relationship, but I wouldn’t advise going through with it. A lot of people have been caught out by their ex broadcasting their sex tapes on the internet, and before they know it, the whole world has seen them in the thick of the action. I don’t think my dad would like to go online and see that, so I keep the camera out of the bedroom – sorry, fellas!”
Danielle Lloyd definitely seems like she would be a good girlfriend.
Here is a picture of Kate Gosselin checking herself into a Days Inn Hotel last night after having a huge fight with Jon Gosselin.
A fight so big that police had to be called to the Gosselin property in Wernersville, Pennsylvania. What could cause a fight that needed the police to be called? The nanny (who is also a single mother, wannabe model and cocktail waitress) Stephanie Santoro of course.
A source said “Kate showed up at the house unexpectedly. It’s Jon’s scheduled time to be there with the kids.”
But when Jon wouldn’t let Kate in, she flipped and started screaming at him from the fence outside the home they once shared because she thinks he is doing the dirty times with Stephanie.
Jon called the cops on her and they showed up just before midnight, no arrests were made though.
I can’t stand either of these people, but I can see why Kate Gosselin would flip her shit at Jon Gosselin . If my ex had their new piece of ass over while minding my kids, all hell would break loose.
Debbie Rowe called the police to her horse ranch in Palmdale, CA yesterday, when two photographers were subsequently cuffed.
One of the photographers was busted for not having a driver’s license and the other for riding on top of the first guy’s car while it was still moving.
And… TMZ was their to capture the whole thing on tape. Do you suppose the two arrested belonged to them?
In case you aren’t annoyed with Debbie Rowe enough, she’s currently battling Katherine Jackson for custody of Michael Jackson’s children. Apparently, $4million wasn’t enough.
It seems not everybody enjoyed their Memorial Day (or Bank Holiday Monday in the UK), check these pictures out of Danielle Lloyd lying in her own blood after being attacked.
What a difference a couple of hours make, she was all smiles as she and her footballer boyfriend Jamie O’Hara made their entrance into Crystal nightclub in London, after the incident she was seen lying on the ground in her own blood, no shoes on and two friends around her while she screamed in pain.
Apparently the fight which took place at around 2:30am kicked off after two girls were dancing on the back of Danielle’s vip sofa in the club, one of the girls apparently kicked Danielle which made her jump up to confront the girls.
An eye witness said that’s when they started punching each other and Danielle fell over the sofa and landed on a table full of glasses which is how she cut her leg. While all of this was going on her boyfriend Jamie is said to have been fighting with one of the girls boyfriend before being thrown out of the club.
After waiting outside on the ground Danielle was rushed to hospital, her spokesperson said that she “sustained a serious wound to her back which required stitches upon arrival at hospital, the injury to her leg is more serious.” She is said to be recovering in hospital after having emergency cosmetic surgery to her legs.
You may recall Danielle Lloyd recently announced she was in an abusive relationship with one of her ex boyfriends during the time her modeling career was starting. This is all crazy.
For the second time in less than a week, Paris Hilton turned her new neighborhood upside down — this time cops were called to put an end to a nuclear argument.
Apparently, Paris and Doug had such a screaming argument the neighbors couldn’t sleep.
When cops arrived, Paris and Doug wouldn’t open the front gate, so they hopped the fence. Paris and Doug opened the door, cops spoke with them and the loud arguing stopped.
A TMZ spy says earlier in the evening, Paris and Doug were at an event in Hollywood and had a pretty intense argument. Apparently, they took it home.
The night Paris moved in, there was a ridiculously loud party and neighbors complained to cops. The next morning, six cars on the street were keyed.
UPDATE 2:05 p.m: TMZ says they’ve spoken to Paris, who says the reason she was yelling was because she thought her dog Tinkerbell was dead. Someone called her and said she’d been run over and killed, but it was a prank. She freaked out and Doug was just trying to calm her down.
Okay the title probably makes no sense, but then again this is to do with Paris Hilton - does anything with this bitch makes sense?
Anyway, Paris doing her best to get photographers to follow her pushed up her boobs so they looked big while she headed out to H Club in Los Angeles with her boyfriend Doug Reinhardt.
Well the night didn’t go to plan, or maybe it did – who knows with these two, because a fellow club goer decided he would try his luck and grope Paris’ boos which is when big man Doug stepped in.
A source said “Doug pushed the guy away and then a friend of the groper threw a beer bottle at his head. Someone managed to get him in a headlock before Doug went over and started punching him. Then the groper started to attack Doug and Doug’s pal [fellow The Hills star] Frankie Delgado decided to get involved.”
Yes you may feel like you’re having a deja vu reading this because at the end of March, Paris Hilton and Doug Reinhardt were involved in another club fight.
So we all know that Nicole Scherzinger is the main girl in the Pussycat Dolls, well it seems the other singers (even though they are mainly only back up dancers) are sick of it.
The past two singles released from the group have even been released as “The Pussycat Dolls featuring Nicole Scherzinger,” now if you don’t know whats going on in the video above – the group were opening up for Britney Spears‘ Circus tour in Phoenix, Arizona.
Well, one of the girls in the group called Melody Thornton was introducing herself and went on a whole rant and started saying stuff like “thank you for supporting me even though Im not FEATURED!!” and “dont let anyone stomp on your dreams!”
As you can see it is extremely akward, especially when Nicole Scherzinger starts introducing herself and shoots off an evil look at Melody Thornton.
Here are pictures of the Pussycat Dolls attending an after party for the Circus tour in Las Vegas.
In an interview set to air Monday on the ‘Tyra Banks Show,’ Levi Johnston, the father of Bristol Palin’s infant son, described some tension with Alaska’s first family.
He told Banks that his former fiancee lets him visit but won’t let him take the baby out, and that Bristol’s mother, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, probably knew the teenage couple were having sex. “Moms are pretty smart,” he told Banks.
The Palin camp fired back in a statement from the family’s spokesperson, Meghan Stapleton, released Friday.
“Bristol did not even know Levi was going on the show. We’re disappointed that Levi and his family, in a quest for fame, attention, and fortune, are engaging in flat-out lies, gross exaggeration, and even distortion of their relationship.
Bristol’s focus will remain on raising Tripp, completing her education, and advocating abstinence. It is unfortunate that Levi finds it more appealing to exploit his previous relationship with Bristol than to contribute to the well being of the child.”
“Bristol realizes now that she made a mistake in her relationship and is the one taking responsibility for their actions,” the statement concludes.
