Celebrities deal with all kinds of ghouls: fans, paparazzi, tabloid media (Hi!), D-Listers, agents, etc. But the spookiest? Stalkers. Certifiable crazies who can't get enough of you. Literally. Everyone's got one lately: JT, Ryan Seacrest , Miley Cyrus , and... Bret Easton Ellis ? Yessur. Justin Timberlake 's stalker—surprisingly, not Brittney Spears—one Ms. Karen McNeil, was busted on Timberlake's property last week. When asked to leave, she wouldn't. So Timberlake danced out a restraining order on this psycho, who'd also tried to follow Axl Rose. Which is sad for Justin Timberlake's publicist. So is the fact that, instead of just loving Justin, she's apparently being possessed by witches . Witches? Witches! In the nonsensical ramblings, Karen states that she has been targeted by " Babylon witches " who seek to cast their "evil" on her. Babylon witches? WTF? Has Robert Moses State Park really gotten that bad? But Timberlake

David Spade , a real human with a real human heart, is so wounded by the criticism of his new ad "starring" his dead pal Chris Farley that he's come forth with a heartfelt statement from his flack. Asylum gets this heart-rending explanation from the sniveling funnyman's publicist himself: "When DIRECT TV came to me and the Farley family with this idea about 'Tommy Boy,' we talked and thought it would be a cool way to remind people just how funny Chris was. It is a clever homage to my friend and a movie that we loved doing, " he says. "Nobody else wants to pay me money for things," he means. -- Posted By sysop to Smells Like News at 10/31/2009 11:10:00 A --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Smells Like News" group.

And you think your parents are bad? This Is It comes out this weekend. To celebrate, Joe Jackson isn't remembering his son's life. He's telling Extra that Michael Jackson 's worth more dead than he is alive. No, really. Yesterday, there was this tiny item buried in the New York Post . Maybe they wanted to be nice to a publicist? Or maybe because this kind of thing was too ghoulish even for Halloween. Michael Jackson's dad thinks the singer is "worth more dead than when he was alive." Joe Jackson, 80, let that slip last night in an interview on the syndicated TV show "Extra." Jackson — decked out in creepy sunglasses and a blinged-out, black, chalk-stripe suit — quickly recognized his gaffe and blurted out, "I'd rather have him alive." One hell of a necrophiliac Fruedian slip, right? Extra has the item up on their site , but no video, yet: again, wonder why. Meanwhile, when the early week's numbers for This Is It aren&#

Quite a week, wasn't it? We can't remember a crazier seven days of celebrity gossip and news since ... well, the week before this. But this one was still pretty solid. Welcome to The Hollywood Gossip's Week in Review! Some of the highlights (and lowlights) from the past week: Most subtle F-bomb dropped: This Arnold Schwarzenegger letter . Least subtle online plea for forgiveness: Chris Brown's RiRi Twittering . Most desperate fake mistress looking for 15 minutes:: Nicole Forrester . Least sane, potentially murderous stalker: Sean Christian Mathis . Only slightly less deranged (although funnier): This Miley fan . Oh, and this random Taylor Swift fanatic wasn't much better . Most absurd feud that absolutely refuses to die: Sarah Palin vs. Levi Johnston . He says she called her mentally challenged baby a retard. She replied suggesting Levi's a man-whore. He says he has info that can take her down. Etc. Sarah Palin and Levi Johnston need to get in a ca
