A FEW WEEKS AGO WE TOLD YOU THAT MIKE “THE SITUATION” HAD CHECKED INTO REHAB…BUT NOW WE’RE HEARING THE JERSEY SHORE STAR’S SITUATION, WAS MUCH MUCH WORSE…IN FACT HE COULD’VE DIED…


WHEN THE SITUATION FIRST CHECKED HIMSELF INTO THE CIRQUE LODGE IN UTAH FOR ALCOHOL AND PRESCRIPTION DRUG ABUSE, HE REPORTEDLY ADMITTED TO USING XANAX AND AMBIEN…

BUT HE SUPPOSEDLY LEFT OUT A THIRD DRUG, THE POWERFUL AND ADDICTIVE PAIN MED, DILAUDID.

A SOURCE TELLS RADAR ONLINE, “Mike was taking unbelievable amounts of Dilaudid along with Xanax and Ambien. “Mike was taking about 20-30 pills a day which easily could have killed him. Mike is very lucky that he didn't overdose and die,” because the amount of prescription drugs was that high and deadly.”

AND TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY, THE INSIDER ADDS, “Mike would also drink alcohol while he was taking the pills which obviously could have had a horrible outcome for him.” Everyone around him is hopeful he will stay sober once he leaves Cirque Lodge.”

BUT THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT MIKE WAS ACTUALLY THE ONE WHO WANTED TO GET SOBER, AND HE WILLINGLY WENT TO THE TREATMENT CENTER. SOURCES SAY THE SITUATION IS PLANNING TO RETURN FOR THE JERSEY SHORE’S 6TH SEASON THIS SUMMER.

EVERY YEAR WE CELEBRATE AMAZING RED CARPET STYLE…BUT WE ALSO RAISE A GLASS TO FASHION FAILS! CHECK OUT WHO MISSED THE MARK THE MOST IN 2011.


LINDSAY LOHAN’S HAD A ROUGH YEAR- SO WE ALMOST FEEL BAD FOR INCLUDING HER ON THIS LIST.
ALMOST. THIS TERRIBLE NUDE COLORED DRESS IS JUST TOO BAD NOT TO INCLUDE- NOT ONLY DOES IT PULL IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES…BUT- CAN SOMEONE SAY STEAMER?! AND BRA!

KATY PERRY IS KNOWN FOR MAKING FASHION STATEMENTS…BUT WE’RE NOT REALLY SURE WHAT SHE WAS TRYING TO SAY WITH THIS YELLOW CUBE AT THE VMAS. MAYBE SHE’S AN UNDERCOVER PACKERS FAN? EITHER WAY- WE’D RATHER SHE DIDN’T SAY “CHEESE” EVER AGAIN.
SHE’S YOUNG, GORGEOUS AND THIN- SO EMMA ROBERTS SHOULD BE ABLE TO PULL OFF JUST ABOUT ANYTHING- RIGHT? THIS FLORAL DISASTER PROVES WRONG!

OH KE$HA. YOU NEVER FAIL TO LET US DOWN IN THE HOT MESS DEPARTMENT..AND THIS DRESS AT THE BILLBOARD MUSIC AWARDS WAS NO DIFFERENT!

SHE MAY HAVE PLAYED ONE OF THE BIGGEST FASHION ICONS ON TV…BUT IN REAL LIFE SJP HAD US SAYING WTF WHEN WE SAW THIS HEADPIECE!

AND WE HAVE TO GIVE PROPS TO THE LADIES OF THE JERSEY SHORE- HEY- AT LEAST THEY’VE GOT A THEME…AND IT’S “RAINBOW SEQUINS THREW UP ON ME.”

BUT AT LEAST THE GIRLS HAD A COMPLETE OUTFIT ON! WHEN X TINA STEPPED OUT SANS PANTS- ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS - EVERYONE TOOK NOTICE- AND NOT IN A GOOD WAY. WHAT’S SO BAD ABOUT PUTTING PANTS ON?

AND IT’S NOT ALL ABOUT THE LADIES…THANKS ASHTON- FOR THINKING THIS WOULD LOOK GOOD ON LATE NIGHT TV- OR ANYWHERE FOR THAT MATTER!

CHEERS TO A NEW YEAR OF BETTER FASHION!

THEY SAY TRUTH IS STRANGER THAN FICTION – AND WE’VE GOT A LITTLE BIT OF BOTH IN THIS WEEK’S EDITION OF FAUX OR FO’ REAL.

IS STEVEN SEAGAL OUT FOR JUSTICE IN WEST TEXAS?

AND NOW HE’S AT IT AGAIN. SEAGAL HAS BEEN SWORN IN AS THE NEWEST SHERIFF’S DEPUTY IN TEXAS’S HUDSPETH COUNTY, WHERE HE’LL HELP PATROL THE U.S.-MEXICO BORDER.

STEVEN SEAGAL REAL LIFE LAWMAN? THIS ONE IS FO’ REAL… AND SOMETHING TELLS US HE’LL BE UP FOR THE GIG:

FANS OF THE A&E SERIES “STEVEN SEAGAL: LAWMAN” ALREADY KNOW OF THE ACTION STAR’S COP CREDS...

PAULA ABDUL IS NO STRANGER TO DRAMA ON THE SET OF A REALITY SINGING COMPETITION, BUT IS SHE UP TO HER OLD ANTICS?

ACCORDING TO STAR MAGAZINE, PAULA AND HER FELLOW “X-FACTOR” JUDGE NICOLE SCHERZINGER HAVE BEEN – QUOTE – “fighting nonstop, bickering like crazy over who gets to wear the sexiest, most stylish outfits”

SOUNDS PLAUSIBLE, BUT GUESS WHAT? A SOURCE TELLS RUMORFIX THERE IS “NO TRUTH” TO THE STORY AND “Nicole and Paula have…a good relationship.” THIS ONE IS TOTALLY FAUX.
DID “THE SITUATION” GET THE BOOT FROM AN APPLE STORE?

THE TECH BLOG GIZMODO REPORTS THAT THE AB-TASTIC “JERSEY SHORE” STAR WAS KICKED OUT AFTER HE ALLEGEDLY TRIED TO CUT THE LINE TO BUY AN iPHONE 4-S.

TROUBLE IS, A REP FOR SITCH SAYS IT NEVER HAPPENED AND THAT HE DOESN’T EVEN OWN AN iPHONE.

SO THE SITUATION HERE IS THAT THIS RUMOR IS FAUX.

THE “SITUATION” BETWEEN JERSEY SHORE’S MIKE SORRENTINO AND ABERCROMBIE & FITCH IS HEATING UP… AND NOW THE SITCH HAS –LAWYERED UP.

LAST MONTH, THE WELL-ABBED REALITY STAR AND THE HIPSTER RETAILER BUTTED HEADS WHEN A&F ISSUED A PRESS RELEASE CLAIMING THEY HAD OFFERED ‘THE SITCH’ A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF MONEY TO STOP WEARING THEIR CLOTHES.

BUT THE CLOTHING GIANT WAS ALREADY SELLING SHIRTS INSPIRED BY HIS NAME, WITH SLOGANS LIKE ‘THE FITUATION’ AND ‘GTL FITCH,’ OBVIOUS REFERENCES TO THE JERSEY SHORE STAR AND HIS DAILY DRILL OF ‘GYM TAN LAUNDRY.’

NOW, THE SITCH’S LAWYERS HAVE SENT A CEASE AND DESIST LETTER TO ABERCROMBIE AND FITCH DEMANDING THAT THEY STOP SELLING THE TEES…

THE LAWYERS SAY THE SHIRTS NEED TO BE PULLED FROM SHELVES, AND THAT THE SITUATION SHOULD RECEIVE ALL THE PROFITS THEY’VE ALREADY MADE OFF THE SALE OF HIS TRADEMARK SLOGANS.

THE GUIDO’S REPS SAY THE WHOLE THING WAS CLEARLY A PUBLICITY STUNT DESIGNED TO EXPLOIT HIM.

WE GOTTA SAY – WE’RE WITH THE SITUATION ON THIS ONE! HEY ABERCROMBIE – STOP RIPPING OFF ONE OF OUR FAVORITE RIPPED REALITY STARS!

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS DESTROY A 300-THOUSAND-DOLLAR-CAR, GIVE US AN EXCUSE TO SHOW CUTE ANIMALS OR GET DISSED BY A CLOTHING CHAIN – AND YOU’LL END UP ON CELEBTV’S RADAR.

JAY-Z AND KANYE WEST HAVE SOME OF THE DEEPEST POCKETS IN ENTERTAINMENT – SO MAYBE WE SHOULDN’T BE SURPRISED THAT DESTROYING A LUXURY CAR IS AN EXPENSE THEY’RE WILLING TO PAY FOR THE SAKE OF THEIR ART.

IN THE DUO’S NEW VIDEO FOR “OTIS,” JAY AND ‘YE LITERALLY BLOW THE DOORS OFF A MAYBACH (MY-BAHK) WORTH 300K.

AND THE EXCITEMENT OVER THE RAPPERS’ NEW SINGLE INSPIRED THIS VIRAL VIDEO – A MASH UP OF “OTIS” WITH SCENES FROM THE 1989 MOVIE, “THE ADVENTURES OF MILO AND OTIS.”

CLASSIC!
SPEAKING OF ANIMALS – THIS TIME OF THE PARTY VARIETY… MIKE “THE SITUATION” SORRENTINO IS ON THE VERGE OF THE STRANGEST NON-ENDORSEMENT DEAL EVER!

ABERCROMBIE AND FITCH HAS OFFERED THE SITCH A – QUOTE – “SUBSTANTIAL PAYMENT” TO STOP WEARING THE LABEL ON JERSEY SHORE, BECAUSE THEY FEEL WHEN THE REALITY STAR SPORTS THEIR DUDS IT CAUSES “SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE” TO THEIR BRAND.

GETTING PAID TO NOT DO SOMETHING? SOUNDS LIKE A DEAL TAILOR-MADE FOR THE CAST OF JERSEY SHORE.
