Snakes on a Plane without Samuel LJ

An Australian airliner was grounded after four baby pythons escaped from their container in the aircraft's hold.

The snakes, just six inches long, were among 12 Stimson's pythons being flown from Alice Springs to Melbourne.

At first it was thought the reptiles may have been eaten by the other snakes, but this was discounted after they were weighed on landing.

Passengers were transferred to other aircraft. The jet was fumigated but the snakes' bodies are yet to be found.

Want to date Lohan?

Newly single Lindsay Lohan has made a internet dating video parody for the comedy website FunnyorDie.com.

It's refreshing to see Lindsay so self aware:

"I'm a workaholic, a shopaholic and according to the state of California, an alcoholic," said the actress in the skit for comedy website Funnyordie.com.

"We'll crash a few parties, a car or two," continues "newly single" Lohan, who is on probation for drink driving.

The video will appear on dating site eHarmony and can be seen on the FunnyorDie.com website.

J'Lo's behind is the Ultimate

Winner of series five of Britain's version of Dancing with the Stars - Strictly Come Dancing - wants to beef up her behind to emulate Jennifer Lopez's.

I wouldn't be surprised if she wants to emulate J'Lo's musical success too, who doesn't!

This reminds me of rumours that Jenny from the block insured her behind for a cool $1m but these have never been confirmed.

Passion of the Divorce

Mel Gibson is divorcing after the 28 years of wedlock - in today's terms that is around 284 times longer than the usual Hollywood marriages - 28 years!

Divorcing in the state of California states that marital assets are divided in half and what with the Passion of Christ alone being a $600m plus earner, his wife won't have to worry too much, and rumours are that it will be quick and expense!
Fingers crossed it can be a quick and painless divorce especially as they have seven children one being as young as ten.

Russian starlet Oksana Pochepa aged 24 is claiming to be the mystery woman surrounding the Gibson's split.

Was it any coincidence that Mel's wife Robyn filed papers on Good Friday - Happy Easter.

Jamie Foxx apologises to Miley/Hannah

Jamie Foxx, has apologized via yesterday's episode of Jay Leno, to Miley Cyrus/Hannah Montana for a radio verbal assault.

"I have a radio show. We're really the black Howard Stern. We go at everybody. There was a situation with Miley Cyrus, and I just want to say, I apologize for what I said. I didn't mean it maliciously. You know I'm a comedian. You know my heart."

Considering I can't always tell the character (Hannah Montana?) and the actress (Miley Cyrus?) apart, who knew Miley isn't her given name? She was born Destiny Hope Cyrus.
