Actor-director Sean Penn was charged today with battery and vandalism charges stemming from an altercation with a photographer paparazzi in Brentwood, California last fall.
Penn will be arraigned March 22 on the two misdemeanor charges, said Los Angeles city attorney’s spokesman Frank Mateljan.
Penn will not be required to appear in court if he is represented by an attorney.
Mateljan said Penn kicked a photographer during a paparazzi crush in October 2009. The photographer’s camera also was damaged. The incident was captured on a video posted by celebrity Web site TMZ.com in which Penn is seen kicking at a photographer and repeatedly telling the photographer to “get out.”
If convicted, Penn could face up to 18 months in jail.
The cast has been announced for the Farrelly Brothers’ Three Stooges movie, and it is ridiculous. From Variety:
Studio has set Sean Penn to play Larry, and negotiations are underway with Jim Carrey to play Curly, with the actor already making plans to gain 40 pounds to approximate the physical dimensions of Jerome “Curly” Howard. The studio is zeroing in on Benicio Del Toro to play Moe.
Ummm…. are you joking? My dear sweet Benicio is NOT going to play Moe. I hope this is not true. Also..how do you zero in on Benicio Del Toro for a role like that? Isn’t Bill Pullman available? I’m sure he’s available… give him a ring. Cary Elwes is also probably available. Hey Jeff Daniels-be a sport and just volunteer.
Sean Penn? Great…he’s probably going to use his half retard (I Am Sam/Harvey Milk) impression while holding his fist in the air and slobbering. It’s basically his method of acting in every film. Ouch. I know…I can be harsh but go back and read my Harvey Milk review.
I heard the word “necking” recently so I thought I would use it. I recall young teenagers in 1890 using the word “necking”.
The story is Natalie Portman and Sean Penn were making out at a hotel and disappeared to a mystery spa floor for about an hour. Several inside sources say this is 100% true.
He was on the “outs” with Robin (his wife) but this has to be the oddest match to me. Hell, why not date Steve Martin. In fact…have a kid with him. Here is Natalie Portman and Steve Martin’s kid:
On second thought…maybe not.
Anyways here are the details about the Nat and Sean steamy scene according to the ever so accurate Star Magazine:
“They went to a bank of elevators that only goes to the spa or to private rooms,” an eyewitness tells Star. “They came back about 45 minutes later, and that’s when I saw them making out.”
“There’s a door outside of the hotel’s Tower Bar that has a bridge to the terrace, so it’s semi-private,” the eyewitness explains. “I used that path to get to the restroom, and when I came back, I had to go through some curtains — and that’s when I interrupted Sean and Natalie! When they saw me, they were startled and quickly composed themselves.”
On Samantha Ronson: Samantha and I have been living together¦ and I finally found this great new house in LA so now we’re closer to each other. It’s literally around the block¦ I got my license back a week and a half ago. That was a big deal. It’s [restricted], but it just feels so good.
On Britney Spears:
She’s marketed as an entertainer, which is what she is. Not necessarily as, like, an artist. And I respect that about her, cause she doesn’t want to pretend.
On her future:
I’m talking to [lots of people]. One is Sean Penn I spoke to him again the other day. We’re trying to get Seth Rogen for this project, but Seth won’t call us back. So call us back, Seth, if you’re reading this!
Seth Rogan is the smartest son of a you know what!!!
I had something different in mind for this interview. Here are the questions I would have asked:
1. What does Samantha do that really turns you on?
2. Do you like waking up at 4pm every day and not eating?
Ahh..those were the good ol days. Too bad he beat her up, did too many drugs, drank too much and caused her a lot of grief…I wonder what their kids would look like!!!! Let’s do a mash up!!
The L.A. Times is reporting Katie Holmes ‘forgot’ to wear a “supportive upper body undergarment” when she presented Sean Penn’s award at the Screen Actors Guild Awards, but let’s face it, if she forgot anything, it was to wear a bra. Some can get away with going le’ natural, however, in this picture, it is apparent she needed a bra. Maybe Katie should have received a SAG award!
On second thought…maybe not.
