Charlie Sheen was released from jail after being arrested on domestic violence charges Friday morning.

The Two and a Half Men star was booked at 11:20 a.m. for second-degree assault, menacing and criminal mischief, according to a spokesperson for the Pitkin County Sheriff's Department in Aspen, Colo.

Sheen, 44, posted an $8,500 bond Friday evening, and was released from jail at 7 p.m. The actor is due in court next on Feb. 8, 2010 at 10:30 a.m.

Earlier in the day, police received a 911 call regarding a domestic violence situation at 320 West Hallam Street in Aspen, Colo. Officers investigated and booked Sheen. The victim, thought to be his wife Brooke Mueller, was not transported to the hospital.

ETA:


Sources say authorities gave both Charlie and Brooke blood alcohol tests. Brooke registered a .13 while Charlie registered a .04. We're also told Brooke recanted her story to a female officer just before the bail hearing, telling the cop she was drunk when she made the 911 call. Nevertheless, law enforcement sources say police will still pursue the case -- at least for now.

Once the horror of the festive shopping is over there is little else to do at Christmas but eat, drink and wallow in nostalgia.

And Emma Bunton says the Spice Girls enjoy a tipple and reminisce at this time of year.

“We all go over to David and Victoria’s for lovely food and good wine,” says the 33-year-old, these days keeping herself busy as a DJ on Heart.

“It’s the only time we all get to see each other, we get a bit tipsy and listen to Spice Girl songs. I can’t believe I’ve admitted that.”

Believe us, Emma, you’re not the only one.

And it's totally true, Spice fans! Proof:

New stills have been released for director Atom Egoyan's 2010 film "Chloe" starring Julianne Moore, Liam Neeson and Amanda Seyfried.

Catherine and David, she a doctor, he a professor, are at first glance the perfect couple. Happily married with a talented teenage son, they appear to have an idyllic life. But when David misses a flight and his surprise birthday party, Catherine's long simmering suspicions rise to the surface. Suspecting infidelity, she decides to hire an escort to seduce her husband and test his loyalty. Catherine finds herself 'directing' Chloe's encounters with David, and Chloe's end of the bargain is to report back, the descriptions becoming increasingly graphic as the meetings multiply.

Hunter Parrish: Boy Wonder
At 22, the actor is making a career out of playing a sexed-up, rule-breaking rebel.



Hunter Parrish won’t stop apologizing over the phone. “I’ve never done this to anyone,” he says when he calls a few minutes late for our interview.

Sure. That’s what all you young (he’s 22), hot (see to the right) Hollywood actors say.

“Oh, no,” he groans. “Now I’m one of those guys.”

The Plano, Texas, native seems to have a built-in aversion to superficiality, unlike many square-jawed Hollywood heartthrobs in the making. He’s single. He wants to record a folk album. He lives with a couple of his friends (and his Siberian husky) in a house rented on the cheap in Hollywood. He doesn’t even smoke, which seems impossible considering his day job: playing a drug-dealing, MILF-screwing teen on Showtime’s popular pot dramedy, Weeds. (Costar Kevin Nealon had to show him how to use a bong.) But Parrish’s boyish naïveté is what makes him so genuinely appealing. Even Mary-Louise Parker, his on-screen drug-kingpin mom, has said, “I want my son to be like Hunter.”

“I keep getting cast as this bad guy, and I don’t know why,” he says. He’s referring to his bully to Zac Efron in last year’s 17 Again, and his beloved-by-critics Broadway bout in the hypersexual Tony-winning indie musical Spring Awakening. This month, he appears as son to Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin in It’s Complicated, a Nancy Meyers–directed dysfunctional-family film also starring Steve Martin and John Krasinksi. “I had a healthy fear,” he says of his heavyweight costars. “A respectful fear.” Gosh, even the guy’s fears are polite.

I made a post yesterday detailing Vic's condition (coma after suicide attempt.) There were mixed reports on whether he passed or not (he had not, but he since has..), so I wanted to provide an update. Also people were bothered by Kristin's tweets, so I've included her eulogy for Vic. Fans of his will know he has always had money issues, so there is also a link to donate money to his family to pay for his hospitalizations and funeral.

It's not all bad news for Tiger these days.

Swiss watchmaker TAG Heuer, a major sponsor of Tiger Woods, publicly backed the philandering golfer on Wednesday, despite previous claims that the company would ditch him.

The watchmaker initially pulled pictures of Woods from its Web sites after salacious details of alleged affairs surfaced.

However, according to The Mirror, the company reposted the images on Wednesday with the headline "TAG Heuer supports Tiger Woods."

TAG Heuer has called the previous removal of the photos a "supportive move."

"TAG Heuer confirms today that it will continue its relationship with golf No. 1 Tiger Woods but will respect his desire of privacy by modifying his role in the coming months' marketing programs," the site stated. "Tiger Woods became a TAG Heuer brand ambassador in 2002. The relationship between the leader in prestigious sports watches and chronographs since 1860 and golf virtuoso Tiger Woods has always been extremely professional and productive."

Woods is alleged to have cheated on his wife, Elin Nordegren, with close to 14 women. He has publicly admitted to past transgressions, saying, "I have let my family down."

Gillete has pulled his advertisements for its razors and consulting firm Accenture ended its sponsorship deal with the golfer, stating that he is "no longer the right representative."

Michelle Duggar angers neighbors by rallying to get EZ-mart beer license denied

Reality star Michelle Duggar is out of the hospital after having an emergency c-section less than two weeks ago to save her premature 19th child. (Little Josie Duggar, who was just 1 lb., 6 oz. at birth is still in the hospital but is stable and taking breastmilk.) Michelle was spotted at a public meeting for her local Alcoholic Beverage Control board spreading her puritanical wrath. Michelle and her husband, Bob, objected to a proposed beer license for a gas station in their small town of Springdale, Arkansas. According to local reports, Michelle was crying at the board meeting over the fact that some booze might invade her town. The beer permit for the EZ-Mart was denied, but they’ll probably continue to do decent business in gas since residents will have to go out of town to get their buzz on.

ETA updates from TMZ -- 7:45 PM
There was contact between Charlie Sheen and his wife Brooke Mueller -- but the issue will be who started it.

We're told Mueller called 911 claiming Sheen assaulted her. But we're told Sheen told law enforcement that Brooke was the aggressor and he was just fending her off.

6:42 PM Sources tell TMZ the alleged victim is Sheen's wife, Brooke Mueller. Sheen's publicist, Stan Rosenfield, "Do not be mislead by appearance. Appearance and reality can be as different as night and day. It would benefit everyone not to jump to any conclusion."

UPDATE 8:41PM - Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... Brooke Mueller was
legally drunk when she called 911 on Charlie Sheen. Sources say authorities gave both Charlie and Brooke blood alcohol tests. Brooke registered a .13 while Charlie registered a .04.

We're also told Brooke recanted her story to a female officer just before the bail hearing, telling the cop she was drunk when she made the 911 call. Nevertheless, law enforcement sources say police will still pursue the case -- at least for now.

We've also learned Sheen has hired well-known Colorado attorney Richard Cummins to represent him. Charlie's court date is set for February 8.

THE SITUATION WAS A STRIPPER
Before "The Situation" took his shirt off on "Jersey Shore" -- dude used to take his pants off for anyone willing to shove a dollar in his banana hammock.

TMZ has learned The Situation -- aka Mike Sorrentino -- was a member of the "All American Male" exotic dancer crew back before his reality show days.

We're told The Situation worked for the group -- which gyrates from New York to New Jersey -- back in 2004.

These photos were taken at a bachelorette party -- we're told The Sitch gave a "great lap dance."

According to Philadelphia Eagles players, the most courageous man on the team in 2009 was one who started the year serving time in prison for an act of extreme cowardice.

Today, the Eagles announced that Michael Vick was the 2009 winner of the Ed Block Courage Award, an honor given to a player who shows courage in the face of adversity. Vick's teammates voted for the award, thus demonstrating how tone-deaf and out-of-touch NFL players are with reality.

In December, a month in which 62 percent of Americans are planning to support charities for the Holiday season, The Daily Beast undertook an extensive study on the effects of celebrity on charities. Looking at the 50 biggest celebrities allied with a nonprofit, either as a member of its board or advisory committee, an ambassador, or the face of a campaign, The Daily Beast tallied how much awareness they produced for their favored nonprofit in print, television, and online, and also calculated any personal donations to the charity, since cash is the most direct impact of all.

Using VMS and BurellesLuce, media-monitoring firms, along with Lexis-Nexis and Google search results, The Daily Beast compiled and attributed value to media mentions.

The Top Ten:
#1, Justin Timberlake, Annual Impact: $9,262,381
#2, Madonna, Annual Impact: $5,540,068
#3, Pamela Anderson, Annual Impact: $4,840,168
#4, Oprah Winfrey, Annual Impact: $3,973,870

#9, Salma Hayek, Annual Impact: $1,620,959
#10, Shakira, Annual Impact: $1,284,431

Peter Andre has pipped former wife Jordan a.k.a Katie Price to bag the hero of 2009 title in a survey. The Aussie singer beat fellow divorcee Jo Wood, followed by X Factor winner Leona Lewis to win the celebrity of the year crown.

Jordan, on the other hand, was named voted the most hated celebrity in Britain as she topped the annual poll of the celebrity Villains of 2009. The glamour girl was trailed by supermodel Kate Moss, drug addict Amy Winehouse and disgraced rapper Kanye West in the survey headed by Virgin Media.

"After 12 months of controversial celeb highs and lows, it's interesting for us to let the public have their say," the Daily Star quoted Alison Davis from Virgin Media, as saying. "It's obvious with the opposing leaders, Katie and Peter, both securing landslide victories, that public interest in their saga is still strong," Media added.


idgi, Jordan is super classy, right?
