The early to mid-90s were an excellent time for that whole 'rap' thing. Yes there was still the glamourising of violence, the drugs, the objectification of women and the explicit language - but at least it didn't involve 50 Cent or P Diddy, or whatever in God's name he's called now. It was a safer time when white kids in the suburbs could dream of their gangsta heritage without fearing for how much 'bling' they were wearing, a time when people could look forward to a Tupac release that wasn't posthumous and one when Mr Warren G had released 'Regulate'. You know the song. Everyone does. It was on the soundtrack to 'Above the Rim', which wasn't as good as 'White Men Can't Jump'. It had Bernie Mac in it, so it really was never going to compete with the might of Wesley and Woody.
Good news! Mischa Barton - the thunderingly pointless star of The OC and little else - won't be going to jail for that time she drove around blasted on pot and booze.
According to reports, Mischa Barton decided to enter a no contest plea to her DUI charges, which means her only punishment will be three years' probation, three months of alcohol education classes and a small fine.
On reflection, this is probably the best result Mischa Barton could have hoped for. By avoiding jail, Mischa has freed up a large block of time she's already sworn to spend furthering the advancement of shoddy direct-to-DVD bargain bin movies that no normal person would ever dream of watching. And the world thanks her for that.
Gilligan's Island has a fond place in the hearts of all British people, as the show that none of us have seen but we all know about because of the constant references on other imported American TV shows.
Seriously, none of us have ever seen Gilligan's Island so we can't even begin to tell you what it's about. Although we can safely say that Gilligan's Island star Dawn Wells is a massive stinking pothead.
It's true - Dawn Wells pleaded guilty to reckless driving after police found all sorts of marijuana in her car last year. At this point we'd like to use a Gilligan's Island catchphrase as an ironic statement of Dawn Wells' situation, but we've never seen it so we'll just make one up instead - Cat's pyjamas!
Mischa Barton isn't just that one-time partly famous actress who was in The OC and nothing else at all after that, like you think she is.
No. Because Mischa Barton is also a criminal. That's right - a criminal just like Al Capone and Lil' Kim.
Mischa Barton has just been charged with DUI, driving without a license and pot possession following her arrest just after Christmas. That's bad enough for Mischa Barton, but just imagine how poor Hayden Panettiere feels being the only skinny attention-seeking celebrity not to be charged with driving like some sort of impaired dickwad. Don't worry Hayden! We're on our way! And we're bringing the elephant tranquilisers! You will not be left behind!
