Watching CSI

Adam Rodriquez has scored a plum role in the new Tyler Perry  film I Can Do Bad All by Myself. This a great opportunity for Adam who’s cast along side Oscar nominee Taraji P. Henson. Tyler Perry films are typically blockbuster gold.

When Madea catches sixteen-year-old Jennifer and her two younger brothers looting her home, she decides to take matters into her own hands and delivers the young delinquents to the only relative they have: their aunt April. A heavy-drinking nightclub singer who lives off of Raymond, her married boyfriend, April wants nothing to do with the kids. But her attitude begins to change when Sandino, a handsome Mexican immigrant looking for work, moves into April’s basement room. Making amends for his own troubled past, Sandino challenges April to open her heart. And April soon realizes she must make the biggest choice of her life: between her old ways with Raymond and the new possibilities of family, faith … and even true love. Written by Lionsgate

I Can Do Bad All By Myself opens on September 11th.

You can tell that the new season is fast approaching.  Exciting announcements.  Stars turning up on the red carpet just to remind us they are still present and accounted for. Eva LaRue, a primetime red carpet queen, donned a cute casual outfit for the premier of Disney’s G-Force.

G-Force is a an action cartoon produced by Jerry Bruckheimer.   The cast includes Nicolas Cage, Sam Rockwell, Jon Favreau, Penélope Cruz, Steve Buscemi and Tracy Morgan.

The plot centers “around a team of trained secret agent animals: guinea pigs Darwin (team leader) (Sam Rockwell), Juarez (martial arts) (Penélope Cruz), Blaster (weapons/transportation) (Tracy Morgan), mole Speckles (cyber intelligence) (Nicolas Cage), and fly Mooch (high-tech surveillance) (Edwin Louis). The team takes on a mission for the US government to stop evil billionaire Leonard Saber (Bill Nighy), who plans to destroy the world with household appliances.”

Sounds like fun.

Liza Marquez, David Caruso’s ex has more legal fur flying. In addition to suing David for fraud, breach of their settlement agreement, and emotional distress, she’s also naming a former nanny in the suit. Radar Online obtained recent court documents filed by Liza’s attorney claiming that Maria Vianey Guadron spied for David.

“I can confirm that an additional defendant has been named in the breach of contract lawsuit against David Caruso. I have no further comment,” Marquez’s attorney Debra Opri told the online site.

When source says that Liza became suspicious of the woman after talks broke down between Liza and David back in February. Out came the confidentially agreement which Guadron refused to sign.

“Liza became very suspicious about Guadron, and presented her with a confidentiality agreement at the end of February when settlement talks broke down with Caruso in the paternity case,” a source says.

“Liza had to take this action because she believed that Guadron was spying on her on behalf of Caruso. Caruso was trying to dig up dirt on her in regards to the ongoing paternity suit the parents are embroiled in,” the source added.

“Liza believed that Guadron would leak information to the press and to Caruso about the children, and she is only trying to protect them.”

This must be trying time for all parties. Hopefully they can work it out without too much more messiness.  What’s your take on the situation? I’m a big fan of David but he doesn’t have the history of the best behavior.

Click below look at the court documents.

Eva LaRue was a stunner at the Vienna’s 20th annual Roth Awards.  According to Wireimage, Eva’s with her boyfriend Brad Hamlin which is terribly confusing to me because last I heard she was getting married to businessman Joe Cappuccio. She was also seen with this guy back in March.

The Romy TV award was named in “honor of the actress Romy Schneider was created in 1990 by the Austrian newspaper Kurier.”

Last week David Caruso’s stalker was sentenced to prison and a stay in a psychiatric facility. A judge sentenced Heidimarie Schnitzer to “seven months in prison followed by a yearlong stint in a mental institution.”

The woman, accused of sending the CSI:Miami leading man over 100 threatening letters, told the court that it was all a joke.

“It said in the Internet that every fan gets an autograph, and I wanted one as well. But the threatening was just meant as a joke. I only wanted to attract attention,” she said.

Schnitzer disappeared right before her trial was set to start in April of last year. She was nabbed in Baja California, Mexico last month and deported to her native Austria.

Around the blogosphere, we’d all suspected that David’s stalker was in Mexico. A particular brand of negative comments about the star had once come from Austria. The author’s IP moved to Mexico around of May of last year.

Next up we’ll see how David’s lawsuit with ex girlfriend plays out. At least this dangerous woman’s been captured.

Former Beverly Hills 90210 star Brian Austin Green is set to star in  CSI:Miami’s season finale. Green will play  an alleged car jacking victim who isn’t as innocent as he seems.

“Our casting director suggested [Green] to me for this role,” executive producer Ann Donahue told People. “I thought he was perfect because he can play a tough guy and also have a leading man presence. So, we are thrilled to have him in our finale!”

Miami’s season finale is tentatively set to air on May, 25. No tittle has been released. Green starts filming his scenes this week.

Green plays Derek Reese on The Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles. He’s currently dating actress Megan Fox.

Wow, it seems like just yesterday that the season started. At least summer will be a good time to catch up on any episodes we missed.

Liza Marquez is suing David Caruso for fraud, breach of their settlement agreement, and emotional distress. The mother of David’s two youngest children says she and David met on the CSI Miami set in 2004. Soon after they started dated and subsequently began living together. Liza claims that David gave her a ring, asked her to stop working and promised he’d never to leave her.

She also claims that David was a “possessive boyfriend and reluctant father who ended their relationship two days after the birth of their second child.”

Liza contends that David promised her a $1 million settlement then never came through. He allegedly told her he’d “bury her” she tried to pursue the matter. She now wants the deed to the house the couple shared and punitive damages.

According to David’s attorney, the actor finds the lawsuit “unfortunate since these claims will divert the parties and the court’s attention away from the best interests of the children”.

His manager, Jason Weinberg released the following statement:

“Last month David became concerned about the welfare of his children and sought court assistance to redefine David’s and Liza’s custodial schedules.

“It now appears that Liza has decided to retaliate by raising false claims against David, which David finds unfortunate since these claims will divert the parties’ and the court’s attention away from the best interests of the children.”

There’s a lot going on with David right now. He’s been dealing with this stalker, now this. Hopefully they can settle this matter amicably before it turns into and ugly court battle.”

Liza’s legal counsel says the suit isn’t retaliatory because the ” lawsuit was prepared, submitted to him in June, settled in August and then he delays it for six months”.
