Nicolas CageMovie star recently admitted to having some serious financial troubles, suing his business manager because of his missing funds. But the manager - Samuel Levin, CPA - has filed a countersuit against the actor.

Levin said that Cage “had already squandered tens of millions of dollars,” when he was hired, and that the National Treasure star owed “millions” in “income taxes, with no funds available to pay the tax debt.”

The countersuit claims that Levin told Cage he needed to make at least $30 million per year to continue living in his usual manner. Levin says that in 2007 alone, the actor purchased three homes for the sum of $33 million and twenty-two cars (nine of which were made by Rolls Royce), among other extravagant purchases.

Oh, —why do I love to hate you so much?

1. Maybe it’s because you still think people care about your gay marriage stance?
Honey, you’re just a liar. Period. (The wind blew my top open? Really?)
2. Maybe it’s because you think this is all Perez Hilton’s fault?
You’re just mad the controversy exposed a porn tape you never thought would surface.
3. Maybe it’s because you tried suing the pageant officials?
Uhh - do you even remember signing that morals clause?
4. Maybe it’s because you don’t know why the media won’t let up?
That’s because you won’t stop talking about it!

But enough about my feelings about you…let’s move on to your talents.

Jon GosselinThis probably isn’t the first time someone tried to cite a case of stupidity as a legal defense. , calling himself “an unsophisticated father of eight,” says he was in no position to sign a contract with TLC. He had no lawyer or manager to guide him, you see, so he can hardly be held accountable for putting his own legal name on legal paperwork.

Gosselin said the deal was bad from the start (so why did he continue for so many seasons…?), they only pulled down $2,000 per episode. He even attacked the cable network on another front, saying that TLC violated child labor laws. TLC denies these claims and states that Gosselin did have a lawyer at the contract meetings.

Jon Gosselin and half of his clanReality TV’s favorite, loving father Jon Gosselin took some time out to actually talk about upcoming holiday plans.

While he claims that he’ll only spend half of Thanksgiving with the kids, Christmas is another story: “Christmas Eve and Christmas day are joint-shared custody days, which means we’re both in the house. So we’ll be there.” What a field day for the media! Imagine if they had a veritable inside man to infiltrate… Oh wait, they have a reality show! Let’s hope that TLC manages to ink some kind of deal with Jon for this special occasion.

He also lamented about his lack of gift wrapping skills: “Oh my goodness, doesn’t your back hurt so much? And why do we sit on the floor and reach over, you can never reach the end of the wrapping paper, you need monkey arms, it’s annoying. Nothing ever matches up.”

No wonder Kate was angry at him all the time—imagine wrapping presents for eight kids all by yourself? Yeah, my thoughts exactly.

Paris Hilton's face on a New Zealand billboard

Much like Woody Allen’s legal battle with American Apparel over the usage of an Annie Hall image, everyone’s favorite reality star heiress Paris Hilton is now finding herself in a similar battle after a New Zealand billboard firm slapped her face on one of their spaces.

On top of using her image without acquiring approval, the Media5 ad has “Vacant” written in large letters across the photo of her partying.

“Paris has a proven ability to laugh at herself. We assume that the agency has taken care of the rights to the image of Paris, but we will ask the question. We’re not trying to offend anyone,” spokesperson for Media 5, Adam McGregor, said.

Lindsay Lohan may need to kick her addictionsMost likely due to the mass amount of hate directed at her over the Ungaro debacle, Lindsay Lohan was threatened by a gunman on holiday over the weekend.

The Mean Girls actress was left shaken following the terrifying encounter during a break to Morocco - only to discover the weapon being brandished was fake.

She revealed on her Twitter page: “Umm-OMFG! I was walking ahead with the security guard and some guy was following me, then pulled up in his car and pointed a GUN at me! I was on the phone w/my mum and i screamed and ducked and the guy started laughing and pushed the trigger and it was a fake gun..I was crying..he scared me. (sic)”

In a probably not-so-unrelated story, 23-year-old Lindsay’s father Michael has demanded she go into rehab, insisting she needs help for an addiction to painkillers.

After his wife Maria Shriver’s illegal cell phone usage on the road was publicly called out by TMZ, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger quickly responded on his Twitter, “Thanks for bringing her violations to my attention. There’s going to be swift action.”

Who knew that “swift action” meant hiring a driver instead of simply buying a bluetooth! Well, at least that’s one less unemployed person in the state—well done, Governator.

Michael JacksonHelen Harris-Scott just ran away with the Crazy Lawsuit of the Year award, suing the estate for $50 million. Considering the number of people popping out of the woodwork to posthumously sue the King of Pop, this in itself is not surprising. But just wait.

In the past, Helen Harris-Scott has accused Jackson of wiretapping her phone, placing tracking devices in her vehicle and hiring “organized criminals” to watch her. She also once said that Jackson communicated to her through his music. Let’s count the minutes until this suit gets thrown out of court.
