Big Brother 9 is looking like an all-star cast of convicts. Last year the BB 9 winner, Adam Jasinski, was arrested for allegedly starting an oxycodone ring with his $500,000 BB winnings. Now one of his allies from the show, Matthew McDonald is being accused of involvement in the same ring.
McDonald has been in trouble a lot this month. A real swell guy that was accused of beating his pregnant girlfriend, and then for intimidating her to drop the charges. The drug dealing arrest will be his third in this month alone. I'm sure the last thing he is going to need is weight loss pill with all the stress he is about to have. he is looking at 20 years and a $1 million fine.

"How To Train Your Dragon" Reclaims #1 Slot In Theaters
After falling to 2nd place last week against comic book adaption "Kick-Ass", "How to Train Your Dragon" moved back up to the top spot in a pretty mediocre box office weekend. HTTYD ended up with $15 Million in sales at #1, while Jennifer Lopez' return to the big screen after 4 years came in at #2 with $12.3 million for "The Back Up Plan".
"Kick-Ass" fell all the way down to #5 as another comic book movie "The Losers" came in at a disappointing #4 of $9.6 million. "Date Night" filled int he rest of the top 5 at #3.
Looked like a pretty uninspired weekend at the box office to me. Pretty much all "rental" movies as far as I';m concerned. Rather spend time browsing http://www.dietpillsforwomen.org instead of dropping $50 at the theater for any of these movies.

Hugh Hefner Saves Hollywood Sign
He wasn't the only one, but apparently he donated the last $900K to makes sure that the Hollywood sign would remain right where it was. For some reason, the 138 acres behind the iconic sign were up for sale, and developers actually had the balls to say they were eying the hillside, once owned by Howard Hughes, for luxury mansions.
Of course they had a little heart. They allowed a nonprofit land-conservation group the chance to buy the land for $12.5 million. As an April 30 deadline neared, the group was nearly $1 million short.
"I was aware of the fact that they were raising the money, but I only learned about a week ago that they were running out of time," said Hefner. "They only had about a week and a half left to go." He came up with the rest and saved all those that dream of no longer needing to goop on acne medication and become stars their dreams.
"It would have been a real shame after having restored it if it wound up sold," Hefner, 84, told PEOPLE on Monday at the Hollywood premiere of Iron Man 2, with the legendary 45-foot white letters looming in the background. "It's become something iconic and represents not only the town but represents Hollywood dreams, and I think that's something worth preserving."
