 NOV
28 - JUST three months after they wed in St. Tropez, Pamela Anderson
has filed for divorce from Kid Rock (real name Bob Richie) because
of his "male insecurity and major anger issues," a close pal said.
The final straw was a bellicose blowup Rock threw at Universal
Studio chief Ron Meyer's Beverly Hills house two weeks ago.
"Ron Meyer held a screening of 'Borat' at his house for a bunch of
people, including Pam and Bob," says an Anderson pal. "It was the
first time Bob had seen the movie, and, well, he didn't like it."
The hugely popular film shows Sasha Baron Cohen - in character as
Borat Sagdiyev - falling in love with Anderson after seeing her in a
"Baywatch" rerun, then driving across America in order to propose
marriage to her.
Her friend tells Page Six, "Bob started screaming at Pam, saying she
had humiliated herself and telling her, 'You're nothing but a whore!
You're a slut! How could you do that movie?' - in front of everyone.
It was very embarrassing.
"Pam thought he could have a sense of humor about the movie. She was
in on the gag from the very beginning and loved doing the movie. And
on the eve of what was supposed to be a very positive thing, he made
it an awful night.
"Ever since that night, it has been icicles between them," the
friend relates. "Bob is just a very unhappy and angry man. Pam is
very disenchanted and sad. You know, there are reasons why she never
married him before. Those reasons disappeared while they were
together on a boat in St. Tropez, but she knows now that they never
went away. The reality is he is an insecure, angry man."
Anderson, who suffered a miscarriage this month, left her Malibu
home Sunday until Rock could pack up his stuff and leave. She took
her two boys, Brandon and Dylan (sired by ex-husband Tommy Lee), to
Shutters in Santa Monica.
"Pam is just very happy to not be in the same house with so much
passive-aggressive hostility in it," the friend adds.
Rock's rep didn't return calls, and Anderson's manager declined
comment. (PageSix) |
 NOV 28 - Iranian police have arrested a taxi driver who tried to seduce
women passengers in his car by showing them pornographic films.
"The driver had installed a video system in his car and showed obscene
films to passengers," the government daily Iran said, adding that the
suspect had been arrested after a complaint from an irate passenger.
The driver, who was not identified, reportedly told police he played the
videos in a bid to seduce female passengers, but that they "strongly
objected most of the time".
"I protested the minute I saw the film but the driver refused to
stop," said the woman who complained to police. "I threatened to attack
him if he didn't stop the car."
Personal cars are often used as taxis in Iran. Police have urged
people to avoid "unofficial taxis, which have been blamed for many
abduction and rape incidents". (AFP) |
