Val Kilmer Ponders New Mexico Governorship
- Val Kilmer announced that he's officially thinking about maybe running for governor of New Mexico. Once he bounces the idea off some political types. [Post]

- If you got a late-night text from Paula Abdul saying "Peace has begun," don't worry, she was just drunk on Hope. [People]

- You're getting a Sex And The City movie sequel whether you like it or not. [OK!]
- If you see Naomi Campbell in the airport, being escorted past security, booing is a perfectly legal and appropriate response. And thanks to the heavily armed guards, it's probably safe, as well. [R&M]
- Sean Combs turned more than 60 people away from his party for not wearing "presidential attire." [R&M]
- Hollywood producer of superhero movies is busted for drunk driving, avoids jail sentence with just 40 hours of community service. So logically he screws it up and only does four. Excellent work, Jon Peters. [P6]

Tom Cruise Assembling Gotham Apartment Madhouse
- Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes can't stop buying their East Village neighbors' apartments. There are two flats for staff alone. One's a gym. Everything's on a different floor. Insane. Sounds like them! [P6]
- In an attempt to make soon-to-be-ex husband Guy Ritchie cry, Madonna put her eight-year-old son Rocco in a Yankees jersey, just like rumored flame Alex Rodriguez. It worked! [Us]
- On the set of Saturday Night Live, it emerged Sarah Palin did not know who Oliver Stone was. You know, given the Republican vice presidential nominee's past dabbling in Alaskan separatism, JFK might just change her life. [R&M]
- On the set of Ugly Betty, Lindsay Lohan would "obsessively cut pictures of herself out of the tabloids like she was creating some sort of scrapbook." That's just terribly sad. In large part because we are all Lindsay Lohan, obsessively clipping our own selves out of our own tabloids. What's your tabloid? [P6]
- If I understand the Post correctly, volatile supermodel Naomi Campbell's unborn baby had retained lawyers to implicitly threaten anyone who claims it exists. Probably because it is not yet old enough to hurl a cell phone? [P6]
- The Palm Steakhouse downtown will feature a rendering of Leonardo da Vinci's "Last Supper," but with Bill O'Reilly as Jesus and various other Fox News personalities as disciples. That should certainly impact appetites. [P6]

Naomi Campbell Has "Pancake Bosoms," Rihanna Has "Saucer Nips" And Kristin Cavallari "Ruins" Pictures By Wearing A Bra
Welcome back to Missdemeanors, in which we accuse gossip bloggers of Crimes Against Womanity. We do this because the gossip industry is sexist, and only getting worse. These people are paid to write "gossip" but, 99% of the time, the words they use to go with celebrity pictures denigrate, critique, belittle and objectify women. This week: Breasts. They're too flat, they're too big, they're too good, their areolas are not good enough. Plus! This is a "very special" episode of Missdemeanors, as you shall see. The continued degradation of female celebrities, after the jump. [Jezebel] -

The Gawker Wasted 20
It's shaping up as a cruel summer for drunk, high or otherwise messed up celebrities trying to stay on the straight and narrow. Comedian Andy Dick was arrested this week for groping a 17-year-old's breasts while in possession of marijuana and Valium, in something of a reprise of his bust last year for doing blow in a nightclub. Actress and teen rehab veteran Drew Barrymore is now reported to have boozed her way to a breakup with actor Justin Long. Heather Locklear fled "depression and anxiety" rehab in Arizona after barely two weeks. Even a Rolling Stone, Ronnie Wood, surrendered himself to rehab again after leaving his wife for a 19-year-old cocktail waitress — and two bottles of vodka per day. Maybe all that summer daylight is pushing everyone over the edge! In any case, it's tough to keep track of who's where on the customary arc of high-profile substance abuse: embarrassment, criminality, rock-bottom desperation, rehabilitation and then either another trip around the circle or a break into the freedom of sobriety. That's why we've compiled a guide to once and future inebriated celebrities: 20 actors, singers, models and socialites who hog way more than their fair share of space in the gossip pages — and here on Gawker. We'll update and expand this list over time as a sort of encyclopedia of shame; your comments and tips are encouraged. (The arrows, by the way, indicate trends in drunkenness, so an upward arrow means getting drunker, downward means getting more sober.)

Vogue Brings Black Models To Otherwise-Occupied Readers
The feel-good issue of Italian Vogue featuring all black models in honor of Obama is about to hit the newsstands, washing away the last remnants of racial strife in the world. But some people are asking: why do they have to do the all-black issue during the slowest time of the year for magazines? Why not put it out in the busy season and really make a statement? We hate to even suggest it, but could it have something to do with... money? More »

Kathie Lee On Awful Racist Doll: 'It's Cute!'
Supermodel Naomi Campbell attacked someone on a plane and was arrested recently. She claims she was reacting to a racial slur that was hurled at her. The term was "gollywog," which is Euro-slang for a kind of black-facey looking doll. And of course, because no topic is safe, Today Show yakkers Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb got to, um, yakking about the term and showed a picture of the doll. Kathie Lee cooed that she thought the big-lipped, nappy-haired old-timey doll was "cute." After a brief pause she sputtered out "but obviously it's racist." Ohhh Kathie Lee. Never stop being you. Clip is above.

Naomi Campbell Claims Racist Slur Caused Terror Flight Air Attack
Scary-hot attack doll and terrible person Naomi Campbell says the victims of her latest round of beatings are racists, though she can't or won't identify who supposedly uttered the slur that supposedly sent her into slap-and-throw-things-at-people mode. "British Airways rejected claims of racism on Saturday after supermodel Naomi Campbell, who pleaded guilty to assault in a foul-mouthed 'air rage' incident, said she was likened to a black 'Golliwog' doll during the flight. BA said it did not accept the accusation made by Campbell, who was convicted of assault on Friday and sentenced to 200 hours of unpaid community work, that someone on the flight called her a 'Golliwog supermodel.'"

A Superflack Scorned
Earlier this week we gave you a brief history of Rob Shuter, the shameless former celebrity flack whose various transgressions have reduced him to editing OK! Magazine. That post brought back some memories for Michael Lucas, famous gay porn performer and impresario (pictured, on the left). According to Lucas, he once snubbed Shuter's request for love, which sparked a neverending campaign by the uberflack to exact his revenge! Worst of all, Lucas says, Shuter even used poor supermodel Naomi Campbell for his own nefarious ends. Lucas' full, telling letter is below. More » -

Barack Obama's Gift To European Models
Here in America, Barack Obama spends most of his time insisting he is a non-terrorist, American-born Christian who doesn't hate white people, and who impregnated his wife only after they got married. Sad. But in Europe the Democratic presidential candidate is actually producing uhhh, what's it called — CHANGE. And HOPE. French newspaper Le Monde credited Obama with "stirring up high hopes" among French blacks, while the Times said Obama "hastened... a new black consciousness there." And today fashion writer Cathy Horyn reveals that Obama helped inspire a forthcoming issue of Italian Vogue with all-black models, including Naomi Campbell, pictured at left in a shot from the issue. The idea, executed by photographer Steven Meisel, was to highlight inequality in the fashion industry: More » -

Lindsay Lohan May Guest Star On 'Ugly Betty' Season Finale, Pending Producers Allow Her To Appear Topless
We have to give Britney Spears some credit: even after all the gurney rides, mental ward stays and umbrella attacks, she's still capable of inspiring her fellow Bimbo Summit alumni to follow in her bare footsteps. According to TV Guide, Lindsay Lohan is "in advanced discussions" to become the lateststunt cast victimguest star on the May 22nd finale of ABC's runaway hit Ugly Betty. And in a nostalgic nod to the good old days when she played an outcast in Mean Girls, she's reported to play a fast-food worker who Betty befriends. The only bad news? Lohan will be forced to share the guest star spotlight with the all-time queen of anger management-be-damned divadom. More » -

Naomi Campbell's Bad Luck Streak Continues As Her Hair Decides To Jump Ship
Long ago, we witnessed the frightening effects a bad weave can have on someone like Tyra Banks. Then, we had the misfortune of seeing what happens when John Travolta grew crops of fake hair atop his jolly head. And of course, who can forget Jude Law's T-bone-shaped crew cut earlier this week. But leave it to sanitation worker/phone-throwing criminal Naomi Campbell to reveal the worst and most gruesome display of 'do disasters. Seems even legendary female supermodels who've made a living off their looks can suffer from a condition we've often seen featured on late-night infomercials: ladies losin' their hair. The evidence lies after the jump. More » -

Naomi Campbell Attack: 24 Hours Later
Rage-infected supermodel Naomi Campbell could spend up to six months in prison for assaulting a police officer at an airport yesterday. Just another item on the list of Naomi's many rampages. Reportedly she became upset when a piece of luggage containing the magical clothing she was to wear for an American television appearance turned up missing. Spitting and swearing, running on and off the plane, she was finally subdued, handcuffed, and dragged off of an aircraft by four police officers. Luckily none of the officers sustained any infectious bites nor did her saliva come in contact with any open wounds. She has been released on bail, and is set to return to court in May. Until then, she will prowl the streets... hunting. [Showbiz Spy] Footage of the incident after the jump. More »

5 Rampages of Naomi Campbell
Oh dear. Naomi Campbell has been arrested at Heathrow airport for assaulting a police officer. Sadly, this isn't the first time the feral English supermodel has shown her bottled-up rage, caused by a difficult job and having lots and lots of money. She seems to enjoy hurling things at her servants and other blue-collar folk. Also Italian ladies. After the jump, a brief recapping of some of the more memorable Naomi Campbell attacks.

Naomi Campbell Strikes Again, This Time Directing Her Much-Used Claws Towards A Police Officer
We'd like to have a word with Naomi Campbell's anger management instructor, because apparently those classes she was forced to take after that infamous cell phone toss last year didn't do much good at all. According to People, Campbell was arrested earlier today for assaulting a police officer at London's Heathrow Airport, and while it's cute that they reference the fact that "travelers' frustrations have flared due to baggage delays" since the new Terminal 5 was constructed, we can't help but feel as though Campbell is officially out of excuses for attacking the innocent. Though throwing her cell phone at an assistant last year was certainly a step down on the crazy level from her 2000 incident attacking a PA on set, moving up to police assault moves Campbell out of the sanitation club with fellow alumnus Boy George, and into handcuffs territory. But what happened to the sweet, good-natured Naomi we witnessed on Bravo's guilty pleasure Make Me A Supermodel a few episodes ago? More » -

Naomi Campbell's Gynecological Emergency
Terrifying supermodel Naomi Campbell was paid to "party" at Carnaval in Brazil, but she's also been spending money, probably by bribing police to ignore the bloody trail of insolent assistants and fans she no doubt left in her wake. Campbell is also out of pocket for some emergency "abdominal" surgery she just had to remove a small cyst. Details are hazy, but both a gynecologist and a "specialist in infectious diseases" were on hand for the successful procedure at a Sao Paulo hospital. Along with, one hopes, some heavily armed security forces for when the anesthetic wears off.

Icky Sick?
Supermodel and humanitarian Naomi Campbell was admitted to a hospital in Brazil last night due to some mysterious ailment. It's reported that she's being attended to by an infectious diseases specialist and a gynecologist. Oh my! When she's better Naomi is totally going to toss her publicist out a window. [AP] You commenters must be medical professionals! What could this strange disease be? (We don't think it's just cysts, like is claimed.) -
