It looks like another trip to rehab is in the future for one member of Bon Jovi. Richie Sambora has been arrested for drunk driving. The guitarist was arrested Tuesday night by Laguna Beach, California police on suspicion of DUI. Richie failed several field sobriety tests and was later brought in to get a breathalyzer test. He was cooperative but took the option to forego the breathalyzer and decided to take a blood test instead. The results of which are still pending but police are doubtful that he was on any drugs. Hopefully, this incident doesn’t land him in jail.

Well this one is quick. Someone should sock Chris Daughtry for selling out on his beliefs. The American Idol alum is doing damage control over his harsh criticism of the show which launched his career on his official blog. He opens by saying that he was just being honest but that he’s sorry. He also wrote that “if you heard the whole conversation you would’ve heard all the good things I said about the show as well… I was never trying to “DISS” the show or “BITE THE HAND THAT FED ME” so to speak. I was simply giving my input on what I think would spice the show up a bit.
Sorry for being honest.”

Celebrity blogger Perez Hilton was the first to report that Timbaland leaked Madonna’s rumored new single ‘4 Minutes to Save the World’ and also even posted the track on the website. But it seems that the move has infuriated Madonna’s current record label Warner Bros. because Perez was told to take down the recording. They obliged of course. What’s one simple click of a mouse compared to millions due to a lawsuit?

Timbaland played the song in concert on Sunday night and now, audio and video recordings of the song are all over the internet. Someone may just get a stern talking to.
