OK, first an apology for the misleading title – Mel Gibson has been allowed to drink for ages, but now he gets to do it without a judge disapprovingly scowling at him for it.
Mel Gibson has just been told by a judge that he no longer needs to attend courtroom progress reports for the probation he was given when he got drunk and drove around screaming bad things about the Jews that time.
However, just because he doesn’t have to appear in court, Mel Gibson still has 18 months of probation left to battle through alone. Which means, although he’s allowed to get drunk, we’ll have to wait until the middle of 2009 before Mel Gibson can load up on booze, break the law and use the arrest as an excuse to howl Jewish insults into the sky like some sort of sugartit-fixated werewolf again without fear of jail.

After failing to whip up a frenzy in Hell’s Kitchen, Lee Ryan – our favourite expletive-uttering former boyband member – has since picked up the pieces and moved on.
Sadly, Lee Ryan hasn’t been over in Asia protecting the elephants from dying. Instead, he’s been busy allegedly slapping taxi drivers around and consequently being charged for it. The singer will appear before magistrates in Redhill on February 29.
We will be there in full support for Lee with a host of banners including ‘We Luv U Lee 4ever’, ‘U R Propa Fit’ and ‘Kan Aye Ave A Refund Plz?’ To any of Lee’s 12-year-old fans, ‘Common Assault’ means that he hurt someone for no reason.
So presumably all those songs he wailed about love and harmony were a bit of a lie. We await the trial for news on the best bruv in the world.
