Jersey Shore star, Ronnie Ortiz was indicted by a grand jury yesterday in Ocean County.  This is relating to that fight he got into during season 1 with Stephan Izzo.

The Situation is a Total Diva

Ortiz was charged with one count of third-degree assault, that translates into a maximum five year sentence, if convicted.  OMG.  Can you see Ronnie in jail for even a day?  Dropping the soap would be a daily terror for him….

Ronnie’s rep told TMZ,

“This comes as a complete shock to us, as far as we know, our attorneys have been in contact with the prosecutors office and we are waiting to see the documents.”

Hmmm.  What do you think is going to happen?  Will Ronnie be the first Jersey Shore cast member to go to prison?

But she just won’t say so.  Former Desperate Housewife, Nicolette Sheridan has removed claims of physical and mental abuse in her $20 million lawsuit against her former employer, Desperate Housewives creator Marc Cherry.  Well that’s odd now isn’t it?  If what she said about Cherry on September 24, 2008, that he “took her aside and forcefully hit her with his hands across her face and head.” were true, then would she be dropping that part of the case?  I would think not.

The defense has agreed to drop its request for Sheridan to submit to physical and psychological evaluations, which I suppose could be the reason she dropped hers…. because she didn’t want to be evaluated?  Does she have something to hide?

Anyhow, the case isn’t closed yet.  Sheridan still has the right to pursue lost wages, benefits and other financial compensation.  I am guessing she will still go for those.

Sometimes those divas just don’t know when to go away.

Well, one  major tie anyhow.  Jesse James just sold his Orange County home he lived in with Sandra Bullock.  The phenomenal home is located on Sunset Beach and um, can you ay breathtaking?

So how much did he get for it?  Only $4.5 million.  Really?!  I think that’s a bargain for such an amazing home, in such a prime location.  I am sure that the fabulous recession had a lot to do with that bargain price.

I’ll bet that Sandy is more than pleased that Jesse now has one less connection to her.  I sure would be.

Zooey Deschanel is pretty pissed off at super cute shoe designer, Steve Madden.  She is claiming the company stiffed her over an endorsement deal she agreed to back in August.

The lawsuit was filed yesterday in Los Angeles Superior Court. The original deal was for $2 million and Zooey agreed to it.  Then Madden came back saying the retailers wouldn’t back it, so he reduced it to $1.5 million.  Zooey was still cool with it.  She turned down other gigs to do this one.   So it’s pretty shady that she ended up with nothing at the end, right?

Steve Madden stiffed her completely and she’s suing for the original $2 million.  She could even go for more since he promised her a portion of the profits is sales were high enough.  Go get ‘em girl!

Stay tuned for more of the drama.

Karina Smirnoff has just released her first fitness DVD Shape Up With Karina Smirnoff which is now available on her website http://karinasmirnoff.com/.

We had the opportunity to interview her to talk about it and we discussed about everything from the intensity of a DWTS season, her plans for Christmas, her new DVD, having kids and her upcoming ventures which are very exciting! It was a fun interview and I have to say she is super-sweet, down-to-earth and busy!!

INMF:  First of all congratulations on your engagement to Brad Penny and that gorgeous ring:

KARINA: Thank you so much.  Even though it’s been 3 months since being engaged it is still very exciting.

INMF: How long did the DVD take to produce?

KARINA: It`s a dance-inspired fitness workout program that I have been teaching around the country for years when I was coaching and dancing as well as internationally too. A lot of studios have implemented it into their fitness classes as well, so it`s always been there and was a matter of finding the right team at the right time to put it on DVD.

Once we started talking to Skechers and they were interested it was about 3-4 months to put the whole thing together.  The program was ready,  all we needed to do was figure out the location, the music, the outfits and also to explain to the production company exactly what steps I`m doing and what follows and what proceeds them.

So in terms of getting it ready and filmed I think it was about 4 to 5 months with having it out as well.

INMF:  There is something I`ve always wanted to know and have never found the answer to and I hope you don`t mind my asking, but are you related to the Smirnoff Vodka empire?

KARINA: [Laughing] No I wish I was. A lot of people ask, but I’m not. I would love to do a Smirnoff campaign, no relation, just the same last name.

INMF:  I guess, when you are on DWTS there is no time, energy or a need to do a workout?

KARINA:  Oh absolutely.  Sometimes we spend 10-12 hours in the studio. If we aren’t rehearsing with the celebrity then we are probably choreographing the next dance.  There is always non-stop dancing and usually from the time you get home even if mentally you want to go to the gym your body is like ‘absolutely not, you’re going straight to bed’.

INMF:  Do they also have nutritionists that help you, because you guys need to fuel up properly and get enough food, do they provide that?   (more…)

The Hills star, Lo Bosworth has quit her relationship with Scott Hochstadt.  And I am actually quite surprised.  Lo seemed to really be into him on the show, like he was “the one” and that whole moving in together thing seemed legit.  I. Was. Wrong.  Sorry!

“It happened Tuesday morning, although they’ve been talking about it for over a month now,” a friend of the couple tells Life & Style. “They’re in different places in their lives, and they just hit a crossroads in their relationship.” In addition, Scott might have had ulterior motives for dating the reality star. “I’m not sure if Scott was in the right relationship for the right reasons,” a friend of Lo’s tells Life & Style. “It didn’t hurt that Lo was famous and had famous friends. I don’t know if Scott loved Lo so much as he loved the fame. Things had been bad for a while now.”

Okay, so was Scott just a wannabe fame whore?  If so, it sooo didn’t work out for him.  Because by the end of the day, I won’t recognize his name, but Lo will still be fabulous and don’t forget her book is coming out next month, The Lo Down.
