Newly released information states that the FBI investigated Anna Nicole Smith for the attempted murder of her late husband’s son. She was never prosecuted. One of her ex-boyfriends claims ANS tried to get him to do the deed when they dated. The Associated Press reported this:

Smith’s FBI records, obtained exclusively by The Associated Press, say the agency investigated Smith in 2000 and 2001 in a murder-for-hire plot targeting E. Pierce Marshall, who was at the center of a long legal fight to keep the starlet, model and stripper from collecting his father’s oil wealth, valued in the hundreds of millions. The younger Marshall died three years ago of natural causes.

The documents released under the Freedom of Information Act depict an investigation going on as the fight raged over J. Howard Marshall II’s estate. Vast sections of the 100 pages of released materials — a fraction of Smith’s full FBI file — are whited out, and no evidence of her involvement in such a plot is detailed.

The FBI files show a .357-caliber Smith and Wesson revolver was confiscated from Smith’s home, along with a 3 1/2-inch stainless steel knife and, for reasons that were not explained, a black and orange hat described as “Dr. Seuss.” All three objects were returned to her about seven months later.

Of course, she won’t be prosecuted now. The actress died in 2007 of an apparent overdose.

A Michigan cop calls 911 because he is convinced he and his wife have overdosed on marijuana brownies. They used a quarter ounce of marijuana to bake brownies. The two of them ate them all. Turns out, the wacky weed was confiscated from suspects.

“I think we’re dying,” he said. “We made brownies and I think we’re dead, I really do.”

The video is absolutely hysterical; wait for the reporters’ reaction.

Get this, the guy was never prosecuted! He was allowed to resign from the Dearborn Police Department and no further charges were pursued. Other incidents of police misconduct have since surfaced for the officer and his wife. On a separate occasion, 26-year old Stacy Sanchez (dumb cop’s wife), voluntarily told police investigators that she removed cocaine from her husband’s police cruiser that was part of the department’s drug dog training program. She then went on a reported three-week coke binge. Stacy Sanchez has not been charged criminally either.

Justice isn’t blind, it’s high.

That’s right, Leno brings the billigerent bad-ass to the verge of tears. After Sunday night’s outburst at the VMA’s, Kanye West appeared on the season premiere of Jay Leno’s new show to answer for his behavior.

During Kanye’s apology for his disrespectful rant, his voice quivered, eyes filled with water and he hung his head. Leno invoked the rapper’s deceased mother, asking Kanye what his mother would have thought about his actions. After a long, awkward pause, West said this:

“So many celebrities, they never take the time off. I’ve never taken the time off to really — you know, just music after music and tour after tour. I’m just ashamed that my hurt caused someone else’s hurt. My dream of what awards shows are supposed to be, ’cause, and I don’t try to justify it because I was just in the wrong. That’s period. But I need to, after this, take some time off and just analyze how I’m going to make it through the rest of this life, how I’m going to improve.”

Translation:  I did it because I never take any time off (and that is Taylor Swift’s fault). I was wrong and now I will be going into hiding until this all blows over.

In case you missed West’s drunken rant during Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech, here you go.

That’s right, Simon has a new sidekick for the upcoming season of American Idol. Not another Kara DioGuardi (who knew her before Idol anyway?), in fact she is the polar opposite. Ellen DeGeneres, self-proclaimed lesbian, impromptu dancer and comedian, announced the breaking news during a taping of her talk show just yesterday.

Sending the pop culture media into a frenzy, the announcement comes on the heels of the departure of the great Paula Abdul. The ninth season of American Idol premieres in January, it should be interesting to see what Ellen brings to the table.

Let’s face it…the A.I. ship was sinking, they had to revive it somehow. What better way than with a judge that has absolutely no vocal background.

As twisted and demented as it may sound, that is the buzz about Hollywood since the 48-year-old D-lister showed up to the Teen Choice Awards on Sunday night with 19-year-old Levi Johnston by her side. On the red carpet, the pair held hands, whispered to each other and even made reference to their relationship as long-distance “lovers”.

“Long-distance relationships are not easy, especially when he’s in his igloo and I’m in my Hollywood tower,” said Griffin.

Kevin Federline has maintained a relatively quiet life since Britney, but over the weekend, the former rapper/back-up dancer was in Vegas shooting scenes for his very own upcoming reality series.

The premise of this ridiculous reality show revolves around Federline and his life as a father to four kids. He has two sons with Spears — Jayden, 2 1/2, and Preston, 4 — as well as two children with ex-girlfriend Shar Jackson.

Are you kidding me? Who cares what the overweight, washed-up wannabe does on a daily basis? And his life as a father? He takes along a babysitter when he keeps his own kids!

Poor Jessica, as if her very public break-up with Tony Romo wasn’t tough enough, she’s gone and pissed off the Native Americans. Earlier this week, Jessica was asked if she would take back the pricey boat that she bought for former boy-toy Tony. She hastily responded with a no, saying, “I’m not an Indian giver.”

Her loaded response has ignited a racial controversy, offending Native Americans across the country.

Jacqueline L. Pata, the executive director of the National Congress of American Indians, explained that the phrase originated from the idea of native people giving and sharing with one another but that over time it has transformed into a prejudiced phrase that implies Native Americans give and revoke gifts.

“Most people flippantly use the comment ‘Indian giver,’ without realizing its true meaning…this is both incorrect in the way most people use it, and culturally insensitive to Native people, she said.”

Buck up Jess, this too will pass. Go shopping or something, you’ll feel better.

Who knew a split in your swimwear could make you more aerodynamic? US Swimmer Ricky Berens proved just that Monday after helping the United States take the gold medal at the World Swimming Championships in Rome.

Berens’ wardrobe malfunction, caused by a pre-swim stretch, has suddenly caught the attention of the swimming world again. Michael who?

We can only hope that there will be some new, butt-baring wetsuits fashioned after this blunder!

Perez Hilton is seen here grimacing like a little girl when the fist from nowhere pounds him in the face in a Toronto night club. The internet blogger to the stars claims the fist belongs to Black-Eyed Pea Will I. Am’s manager, Polo Molina.

The whole ruckus began when Fergie, fellow bandmate, confronted Perez about the attacks launched at her on his site. Will I. Am later approached Perez with his manager about the same subject.

With a crowd surrounding Perez, Will and Will’s manager, Polo — the guys argue back and forth for about a minute, until Perez tells Will, “you’re not a f**king artist … you’re a f**king f*ggot.”

Then the fist comes. Perez says Will’s manager hit him two or three times.

Not only are the peas pissed at Perez, the GLAAD association has released a statement pounding Perez for his use of gay slurs during the altercation.

Jack Black has officially taken all the focus off Sarah Palin with his latest appearance on David Letterman. Monday night, Jack was promoting his new movie, Year One, when he broke out into song and dropped the f-bomb.

Typically Dave’s people would have censored the foul language…but this one slipped through the cracks. Since it was after 10 pm, they are both in the clear with the FCC. We’re just glad there is a new buzz about Letterman, and it has nothing to do with Sarah Palin.
