DMX in Deep Doo-Doo for Dissing Doggies

The sun rose this morning, and DMX is in trouble: He's about to lose an NYC townhouse because he wouldn't shill for a line of dog clothes.

Allow us to explain: The rapper lost a lawsuit earlier this month, reports the New York Post, and to pay for the judgment against him for $281K, his Fifth Avenue townhouse is being auctioned off August 13. He was sued back in 2004 by Amusing Diversions for breach of contract because he didn't promote their doggy line as agreed.

He was just arrested in Miami for driving with a suspended license.

Leona Lewis - Bleeding Love Duo Plans Hits For Idol Winner

The songwriting superduo behind LEONA LEWIS' smash hit BLEEDING LOVE has given new AMERICAN IDOL winner DAVID COOK a big boost by offering to write him a string of tunes.

Jesse MCCartney and Ryan Tedder originally wrote Bleeding Love for MCCartney's new album - but realised the song would be better sung by a woman, giving Lewis, the winner of British TV talent competition The X-Factor, a huge hit.

And now the duo hopes to do the same for another talent show victor.

MCCartney says, "Ryan and I are planning to write some songs with him for his (Cook) album."

Cook beat fellow finalist David Archuleta in the Idol finale on Wednesday (21May08).

Oscar winner Crash becomes TV series

The Oscar-winning film 'Crash' is to become a TV series.
The drama will be shown on the Starz network in the US this year and the film's director, co-writer and producer, Paul Haggis, and co-writer and producer, Bobby Moresco, are among those involved in the new show.
This is only the second time a film which has won the Best Picture Oscar has been turned into a TV series: 'In the Heat of the Night' was the first.
Commenting, Haggis said: "I'm very happy that Lionsgate [the show's co-producer] and Starz have decided to develop 'Crash' into a series. Ironically, my initial impulse was to present the material in a format for television. I am thrilled it's coming full circle and can't wait to see how it expands and transforms."
Production on the 13-episode first series is set to begin in the spring.
Haggis' new film, 'In the Valley of Elah', is currently in cinemas. Read the review here.
