Kelly reported this weekend that Jamie-Lynn Spears’ boyfriend (and baby daddy) Casey Aldridge was in the hospital after a serious car accident in Louisiana. Casey’s been charged with careless operation of a motor vehicle (a misdemeanor). TMZ has more info about the accident, and it’s all a little fishy:

Cops tell us while Casey was heading north on the 606 in Louisiana early this morning, he swerved off the right side of the road and into a ditch, then over-corrected his turn back onto the pavement, causing the car to flip. During the flip, 3 people — including Casey — were ejected from the car.

The two others who were ejected refused medical treatment at the scene — and as we previously reported, Casey was taken to the Riverside Medical Center in Ferriday, La. due to what cops called “moderate injuries.”

As for whether alcohol was a factor, cops tell us they didn’t speak to Casey for nearly four hours after the crash — due to his hospitalization — and when they did, they found no reason to suspect he had been drinking.

Casey was charged with careless operation of a motor vehicle — a misdemeanor — and is currently recovering from his injuries at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson, Miss.

Um … what the hell went on over there? Why was Casey swerving all over the road? Why were these people not wearing their seatbelts? Why did two of them refuse medical treatment at the scene???

I want ANSWERS.

Something tells me Jamie-Lynn Spears does, too.

Oh, this is such sad news!!!

Redmond O’Neal was allowed to leave jail this weekend — where he’s being held on drug charges — to visit his mother, Farrah Fawcett, who is battling cancer. Redmond had a police escort, but, still. Jails aren’t typically in the habit of letting people out to make just any housecall. Farrah must be very ill.

Our thoughts are with you, Farrah!!!

I am positively floored to hear this, but Jessica Biel’s new movie about the stripper with a heart, Powder Blue, is going direct to DVD.  I don’t understand how such a talent as Jessica can be put on the Blockbuster shelf over and over again.

She has another movie, Easy Virtue, that is set for limited release in May.  If it actually happens, this will be her first time on the big screen in over two years.

Personally, I maintain high hopes for Nailed, the cinematic (maybe!) masterpiece out for release later this year.  A fascinating plot in which the main character (Biel) has a nail lodged in her head that causes her to flirt with Jake Gyllenhaal.  How insulting is it to be part of a production where the storyline involves a woman who has to be impaled by a piece of hardware to show any interest in you?  Anyway, sounds like a blockbuster for sure.

May I suggest that Jessica needs a change of pace?  A stripper movie, a movie titled Easy Virtue, a movie titled Nailed.  We get it Jess-you’re sexy.  You’ve got to either go lesbian or get into a Holocaust movie if you want to advance this fledgling career of yours forward.

Listen, there have been no announcements, confirmations or baby talk of any kind from Carmen Electra’s camp but let’s face it:  When Carmen Flipping Electra is wearing muumuus, and there’s a reason why those dresses make the same sound as a cow, she is sperminated.  Or recovering from an aggressive lipo session but I still vote “baby.”  After all, she did get engaged to her guitarist boyfriend (who isn’t relevant enough to get a mention on her Wikipedia page) last week.  Why did I think they already got engaged eight months ago?  I swear this already happened.

If this unfortunate dress coupled with the impending betrothal isn’t enough to convince you, how about TMZ video of Carmen refusing to wear a bikini in public?  Come on…isn’t that the equivalent of her posing with a plus sign on a pee stick?

I’d like to be the first to offer my congratulations to Electra.  Either congratulations on her upcoming bundle of joy or congratulations on her upcoming flat and perfectly sculpted tummy.  Either way.  Congrats.

I plug this every year, and I’ll continue to plug it every year, because it’s tremendously important and it’s a cause close to my heart.

In 2005, my close friend Trisha lost her mother to suicide after a long struggle with schizophrenia. Every year since then, she and her siblings have hosted a 5K charity run/walk to raise awareness and research funds for this prevalent and stigmatized illness. I never had the opportunity to meet Trisha’s mom, but I’ve known her and her siblings for a long time now, and I can tell you without a doubt that this was a phenomenal woman who dedicated herself to raising a phenomenal family and being a true friend to her children and the people in her life. The world is a great deal darker for her absence.

Suicide is the 11th leading cause of death in America. Among teenagers and young adults ages 15-24, suicide is the third leading cause of death. Of deaths from suicide, over 90% are attributed to mental health conditions such as depression, bi-polar disorder and schizophrenia. Mental illness touches all our lives in one way or another, and the more we can raise awareness and lessen the stigma surrounding it, the better chance we give people battling these illnesses at living long and fulfilling lives.

This year’s race takes place next Saturday, May 2. You can learn more about the race here, you can make a donation here, and you can check out a beautiful tribute to Gail Boledovich here.

If you live in the Michigan area, you can sign up to run or walk the race here.

Because of this crappy-ass economy, the M.O.M. race is seeing fewer registrations and donations than they have in years past. If you can make a donation — even a small one! — go for it! You’ll feel good about yourself for a long time afterward, I promise! And you’ll feel even better about yourself if you manage to spend a Saturday walking or running 3.1 miles! Get out there and get involved!!
