  1. Colin Farrell's "Tonight Show" Surprise

    Colin Farrell's "Tonight Show" Surprise By Gina Serpe

    Fri Jul 21, 7:40 PM ET

    For a minute there, it looked like the Tonight Show was turning into an episode of This Is Your Life. Or COPS.

    During the taping of Jay Leno's show Thursday, Colin Farrell's segment was disrupted when an audience member jumped up on stage and approached the star.

    Local media identified the woman as Dessarae Bradford, a former sex-line operator who unsuccessfully sued Farrell for $5,000 last April, claiming the Miami Vice star was stalking her via phone calls and text messages.

    Apparently, she decided to turn the tables.

    Bradford entered the NBC studios as part of the Tonight Show audience and walked on stage in the middle of Farrell's interview. Audience members seemed to think the intrusion was part of a skit, until Bradford approached and started speaking to Farrell.

    "She said something to Colin Farrell that no one heard, then he took her by the elbow, led her off stage, asked the cameramen to turn off their cameras and asked for security," Molly Mattaini, an audience member, told the Associated Press.

    The 30-year-old actor reportedly led Bradford straight to NBC's awaiting security guards, but not before, according to Access Hollywood, she left a copy of Colin Farrell: A Dark Twisted Puppy, a self-published book detailing her alleged encounters with the Irish actor, on Leno's desk.

    Upon being escorted off stage, Bradford shouted to Farrell, "I'll see you in court."

    Farrell's retort: "You're insane."

    And to think, it's normally just Leno's monologue that makes the audience this uncomfortable.

    Bradford was quickly detained by a Burbank police officer, though per NBC's request, was not arrested. She was, however, warned by security that if she returned to the NBC studios, she would be arrested for trespassing.

    Following the incident, it was show business as usual for Leno and Farrell, who reportedly apologized to the audience for the disruption.

    "He sat back down and said, 'My first stalker,' and Jay Leno said, 'Welcome to celebrity,' " Mattaini told the AP.

    None of the altercation aired on Thursday night's Tonight Show; cameras were shut off for the majority of the unexpected guest's appearance, and Bradford's approach to the stage was edited out completely.

    Just a few hours later, Farrell showed up at the Hollywood premiere of Miami Vice.

    When asked by Access Hollywood's Billy Bush about the incident, Farrell said, "I don't know. I don't know."

    Last December, Bradford sued Farrell, claiming he stalked her, confiding his thoughts on fellow A-listers and leaving Bradford feeling "degraded" and suffering from "mental anguish."

    A Santa Monica judge tossed out the lawsuit after Farrell's lawyer argued that the actor had never even met Bradford, who has made similar claims against Alec Baldwin.

    Miami Vice opens in theaters July 28.

    I remember hearing about this woman again...it was on a episode of the Judge Mathis.

    A guy was suing his boss for not being paid even tho he did his job. The job was to serve Colin papers so he can appear in court. Of course this woman is the 1 who filed the case against him. I remember the Judge making a comment about the woman..cos she written a book called something like "My night wit Alec Baldwin". Judge started making fun of it.

  6. Woman calls 911 for "cutie" deputy

    Woman allegedly called 911 for ‘cutie’ deputy

    Faces jail after purportedly asking dispatcher to forward her number

    The Associated Press

    Updated: 4:14 p.m. CT July 14, 2006

    ALOHA, Ore. - A woman who called 911 to get "the cutest cop I've seen" sent back to her home got a date all right -- a court date.

    The same sheriff's deputy arrested her on charges of misuse of the emergency dispatch system.

    Washington County Sheriff's Sgt. David Thompson told KGW-TV of Portland it all started with a noise complaint called in last month by neighbors of Lorna Jeanne Dudash. The deputy sent to check on the complaint knocked on her door, then left.

    Thompson said Dudash then called 911, asking that the "cutie pie" deputy return.

    "He's the cutest cop I've seen in a long time. I just want to know his name," Dudash told the dispatcher. "Heck, it doesn't come very often a good man comes to your doorstep."

    After listening to some more, followed by a bit of silence, the dispatcher asked again why Dudash needed the deputy to return.

    "Honey, I'm just going to be honest with you, OK? I just thought he was cute. I'm 45 years old and I'd just like to meet him again, but I don't know how to go about doing that without calling 911," she said.

    "I know this is absolutely not in any way, shape or form an emergency, but if you would give the officer my phone number and ask him to come back, would you mind?"

    The deputy returned, verified that there was no emergency and arrested her for misusing the 911 system, an offense punishable by a fine of up to several thousand dollars and a year in jail.

    Thompson said Thursday it was the first case he knew of in which someone called the emergency line for such a personal reason.

    "That's taking up valuable time from dispatchers who could be taking true emergency calls," he said.

  11. Michale Jackson Ordered To Pay $900,000

    Michael Jackson ordered to pay $900,000

    But conversely former associate must pay pop star $200,000

    The Associated Press

    Updated: 5:48 p.m. CT July 14, 2006

    SANTA MONICA, Calif. - In a split decision Friday, a civil court jury awarded a former Michael Jackson adviser $900,000 — far less than he claimed in the money dispute — and awarded the pop star $200,000 in his cross-complaint.

    F. Marc Schaffel originally sued for $3.8 million, but his claims were later reduced to $1.6 million, and his attorney ultimately asked the jury for $1.4 million in unpaid loans and expenses before deliberations began Thursday.

    Jackson’s attorney had said Schaffel owed the pop star $660,000.

    Earlier in the day, the jury asked several questions and sought read back of testimony.

    In the civil suit, in which only nine of the 12 jurors have to agree on a verdict, one question from the panel was, “Do all 12 have to be accounted for, or can some abstain?”

    Superior Court Judge Jacqueline Connor sent the jurors a message that some could abstain from voting.

    The jurors also asked if they could award damages significantly different than claimed by the parties in the legal action. They were told they could do so but had to follow jury instructions on the law.

    The panel also asked to hear the court reporter read back testimony from Schaffel on how much he claimed was due to him from his business relationship with Jackson.

    A civil court jury awarded a former Michael Jackson adviser $900,000 and awarded the pop star $200,000 in his cross-complaint.

    Bizarre Brown antics spoil New Edition reunion

    Audience yells for trouble singer to leave stage during Essence Festival

    The Associated Press

    Updated: 8:25 a.m. CT July 3, 2006

    HOUSTON - Bobby Brown was back with New Edition — and his ostentatious behavior stood out when he was paired with the soulful group.

    Brown, who left New Edition in the 1980s for a solo career, reunited with the band Sunday night for two songs at the Essence Music Festival.

    As the other five members moved to slick choreography Sunday, Brown ran around the stage wildly and performed raunchy dance moves.

    The men brought the crowd to its feet with their performance of the 1985 hit “Mr. Telephone Man.”

    Brown then left the stage, and the remainder of the group — original members Ralph Tresvant, Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins and Ronnie DeVoe, plus Johnny Gill, who replaced Brown — performed several ballads.

    Brown followed with a solo set that started with “Don’t Be Cruel,” then quickly turned to more raunchy dancing and talk about his sex life with wife Whitney Houston.

    By the time he finished with “My Prerogative,” Brown was shirtless and many in the audience were screaming for him to get off the stage.
