AMBER HEARD CAME TO COURT SUSPICIOUSLY WELL-PREPARED

For many days now, Amber Heard has been sitting in court documenting every instance that she says her ex Johnny Depp was violent with her – 14 attacks in all, during their three year marriage. She has photos of every bruise, every hank of hair he pulled out, and the thrashed condition of their house after each battle. Her makeup artist testified that Amber told her Johnny tried to smother her with a pillow. On some occasions she appeared on TV the day after an alleged fight, looking ravishing. We can’t help but wonder how Amber had the foresight to photograph every bruise and situation. Who DOES that? Certainly she had a PLAN from day one…

CARDI B: LOOKING GOOD IS HALF THE BATTLE

Cardi B fearlessly marched into court in Queens today wearing an extravagant black feather hooded coat with a long train dragging on the wet sidewalk. Underneath she wore a black suit, white shirt and tie, suitable for an appearance before the judge. She’s accused of using social media to plot an assault against the woman her husband Offset had an affair with, and brawling with two bartenders at Angels Strip Club. Looks like she’s confident that she’ll hear the words NOT GUILTY.

FELICITY HUFFMAN HAS “THE LOOK”

Felicity Huffman is a woman who knows how to dress when she’s going to court. Simple, modest, nothing flashy – no designer labels – grey dress, sensible shoes. Even more important, she has the right look on her minimally made up face. She’s giving no thought to the paparazzi. It’s apparent she takes the situation VERY SERIOUSLY and is genuinely sorry for the crime she committed. Today she pled guilty for taking part in the college admissions bribery scheme in front of a Boston judge, and looks ready to accept her punishment.

LORI LOUGHLIN’S “RICH PEOPLES PROBLEMS” JUST GOT WORSE!

Lori Loughlin looked very cute and composed for her first appearance before the judge in a federal courthouse in Boston today. Her charges, of course, are that she bribed and cheated to get her daughter admitted to elite colleges. (Felicity Huffman wore a black suit and looked a bit less confident.) Lori cannot leave the country and she has lost her development deal at Lifetime, but the REALLY bad news is that her odds of doing time in prison for her crime are getting higher. She COULD be sentenced to 5 years for her felonies, but it’s predicted that she is most likely to serve from 6 months to 2 years. Prosecutors want to set an example and treat her like a criminal of average means.

JOHNNY DEPP WANTS TO CLEAN UP HIS IMAGE

Johnny Depp is in Switzerland promoting his new film Richard Says Goodbye (destined for VOD) and he’s not happy about the reputation his ex-wife Amber Heard has given him. Ironically, the movie has been described as “romanticizing macho male dysfunction“ and Johnny plays a disreputable professor. Depp desperately wants to clean up the image Amber Heard gave him when she accused him of alcohol abuse and a violent temper. They are both going back to court because Depp intends to prove she faked abuse allegations against him – does he really want to open that can of worms again?

AMBER HEARD PLEADS GUILTY TO DOG SMUGGLING

It turned out to be a bigger deal than we realized when Amber Heard brought their two Yorkies, Pistol and Boo, along on a visit to Johnny Depp , while he was filming in Australia. Amber arrived on a private plane and no one was aware that the dogs were with her until the pups were brought to a salon for grooming. Their beauty visit got a lot of publicity and that’s how Amber got in trouble for smuggling them into the country and breaking quarantine laws. Amber and Johnny had to fly back this week and appear in court today where she pleaded guilty. Her sentence remains to be seen, but the famous pair looked quite confident.

WHAT HAS ZSA ZSA’S HUSBAND BEEN DOING WITH HER MONEY?


Here’s what’s happening with Zsa Zsa Gabor’s husband “Prince” Frederic Von Anhalt and her daughter Francesca. Francesca has started the process of having a court decide what is best for her mother in terms of financial and medical affairs. She hopes the judge will appoint a third party neutral conservator to manage her mother’s interests. She’s concerned that her mother isn’t receiving needed medical care because she is only allowed to visit infrequently and found her mother appeared to be heavily medicated. When Frederic married Zsa Zsa, the prenup specified the house was ALL hers. Yet he has taken out a $700,000 loan on the house and the document was supposedly co“signed” by unresponsive Zsa Zsa. Hmmm. What’s more, the house is in foreclosure because the Prince hasn’t been paying the mortgage. Where did the money go? (Von Anhalt announced he was running for Mayor last year) Francesca is looking forward to a thorough investigation of Frederic’s financial activities and her mother’s health care. It’s about time!

LINDSAY LOHAN: IF THE JUDGE CAN’T TAKE HER FREEDOM – WHAT ABOUT HER MONEY?

Again Lindsay Lohan can laugh in the face of the law – although she was sentenced to 30 days for violating probation after shoplifting. Due to overcrowding in the Los Angeles prison system, she’ll be released in a matter of minutes and won’t even see he inside of a cell. To top it off, the judge kindly allowed her a week to surrender so she can complete her million dollar photo layout for Playboy. Too bad she can’t be FINED as punishment instead of given jail time she’ll never serve – cutting into her shopping might finally get her attention.
