PHIL SPECTOR: FROM TEDDY BEAR TO MONSTER
Filed Under: Crimes and Misdemeanors > Lana Clarkson > Phil Spector > Prison
You’d never have guessed back in 1958 when Phil Spector was in the group The Teddy Bears that sang “To Know Him is to Love Him” that he’d turn out to be a murderer. Spector, 70, is back in the news and Lana Clarkson’s friends are not happy about it. Spector was convicted of murdering Lana and is in the process of serving a 19 years to life sentence at Corcoran State Prison. Citing an Associated Press story, Lana’s friends are outraged because Spector seems to be getting special treatment in prison. His 29 year old wife Rachelle is allowed to visit him twice a week and he is permitted to receive his OWN food and not partake in the prison fare. Spector has a private room and he petitioned for email access. This week Spector is being transferred to another prison, oddly named Happy Valley State Prison in Northern California. Erik Menendez is there and whether Spector continues with his “special treatment” remains to be seen.

RIHANNA AND CHRIS BROWN’S PLANS TO HOOK UP LIKE ROMEO & JULIET ARE FOILED
Filed Under: Chris Brown > Crimes and Misdemeanors > Prison > Probation > Rihanna > Romeo & Juliet
Rihanna and Chris Brown had quite a jolt yesterday when the judge who sentenced Chris to six months of hard labor cleaning up highways and five years probation, flatly REFUSED Rihanna’s request to cancel the stay-away order. This was a real shock because Chris must stay 100 yards away from Rihanna for five years or his probation will be REVOKED and he’ll go straight to jail. Rihanna hoped the judge would drop the order. This enhances the tragic “Romeo & Juliet” aspect of their shattered romance. Insiders feel the former lovers hoped to reunite when things quieted down. Now they don’t have a chance. Smart judge.

AMY WINEHOUSE: MENTAL INSTITUTION OR DIVORCE?
Filed Under: Amy Winehouse > Blake Fielder-Civil > Divorce > Drugs > Parents > Prison
Poor Amy Winehouse. In her impaired condition she may not be aware that her divorced parents seem to be chatting incessantly with rival newspapers in the UK. Amy’s mother Janis is hopeful about Amy’s relationship with Alex Haynes (pictured here) – he works for her manager and they’ve been hanging out together. Janis feels Blake incarcerated is a horrible influence on Amy and she says Alex is “a lovely boy.” (THAT started rumors that Amy is filing for divorce.) Amy’s father Mitch is saying, however, that he hopes to get Amy committed to a mental institution. He feels she is “a danger to herself” and rehab isn’t enough – he wants Amy to be locked up somewhere that she’ll be safe. “It’s too bad” he says “but what I think is good for her and what SHE thinks is good for her – are not the same thing.”

IS AMY WINEHOUSE USING HER BEEHIVE TO SMUGGLE CONTRABAND TO BLAKE INCARCERATED?
Filed Under: Amy Winehouse > Blake Fielder-Civil > Drugs > Prison
Amy Winehouse overslept or something and she arrived at the prison too late to visit Blake. She tried to sneak home without being noticed, but that’s hard when you have an eighteen inch beehive. We started wondering if Amy had “things” hidden in her beehive (remember when tough girls hid razorblades in their beehives?) She COULD be smuggling any of a number of items to Blake. Is her beehive subject to searches?

DID AMY KNOW WHAT BLAKE WAS DOING WITH HER AUTOGRAPHED PICTURES?
Filed Under: Amy Winehouse > Blake Fielder-Civil > Drugs > Prison
When we heard that Amy Winehouse’s incarcerated Blake was trading her autographed photos for hits of heroin in jail, we were surprised by his enterprising spirit. Apparently the photos end up for sale on the internet. But when Blake OD’d on a bad batch of heroin mixed with another substance, we wondered if her photos were bringing in the bucks. They ARE. Right now, you can find the THIS 8X10 Amy photo on eBay,and with six days left, there are already 7 bids. The price is up to $41.19 and sky’s the limit! Blake had better start negotiating better deals.
