Shia LeBeouf Arrested in Chicago

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip

This year’s ‘It’ boy has just surpassed another noteworthy milestone on his rise to stardom:  the drunken arrest.

The star of Disturbia, Surf’s Up and Transformers was detained early this morning in The Windy City after refusing to leave a Walgreens.  A security guard, believing Shia LeBeouf to be drunk, told Shia to exit the store.  The Chicago Police Department was then asked to step in when the actor refused to cooperate.  (Apparently he’s not used to taking instruction from someone other than a director.)  LeBeouf - who was reportedly ‘very courteous and polite’ with authorities - posted bail after being detained for several hours.  He is scheduled to appear in court on November 28 for misdemeanor criminal trespassing.

Interestingly enough, the actor held off celebrating his 21st birthday last June because of his work on Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.  LeBeouf told Vanity Fair he wanted to finish the Indy project before taking a sip.  “People say, ‘What are you doing for your 21st birthday, Shia?’ And I’m like, ‘I’m making an Indiana Jones movie.’ What’s better than that?”  (The movie is currently in post-production, so it appears he may have been a man of his word.)

And while news of a young male star slipping up is hard to come by these days, I found today’s celeb arrest to be mildly disappointing.  Seriously—who hasn’t been kicked out of a store when they were 21?

Did Owen Wilson Attempt Suicide?

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip

Several sites have reported tonight that Owen Wilson (Wedding Crashers) has been transported to the hospital for medical care.  Now the National Enquirer and Star magazine are exclusively claiming that the actor was found after an apparent suicide attempt.  Santa Monica Police and Fire responded to Wilson’s house around noon Sunday after receiving a 911 call.  According to the Enquirer, the actor may have cut his wrists and ingested an unknown number of pills.

It’s doubtful due to patient privacy laws that we may ever know the full story.  Regardless, we sincerely wish the best for Owen’s recovery.
