JUSTIN BIEBER: Need for Speed in Ferrari
Justin Bieber is back in Los Angeles and taking out his frustration behind the wheel of a Ferrari. The 18-year-old singer – who was just dumped by Selena Gomez-- was pulled over yesterday evening by a Los Angeles County Sheriff's deputy. Their first question might have been how someone so young could afford an expensive car like that. The standard Ferrari package starts around a quarter million dollars.
During the Fourth of July weekend, Bieber was pulled over for speeding. He claimed he was being chased by paparazzi while driving a chrome Fisker Karma. Perhaps he would not have attracted all that attention if he’d chosen a car that’s no so expensive and flashy.

LINDSAY LOHAN: Gains a 17-Year-Old Half-Sister
Lindsay Lohan’s dysfunctional family has grown by one. Today on the syndicated “Trisha Goddard” talk show, Michael Lohan will take a DNA paternity test. And he tests positive. Lindsay has a half-sister she never knew. Her other sister, Ali is 18 years old.
Lindsay’s dad has denied for years that he fathered a lovechild back in 1995. On today’s show he comes face-to-face with his 17-year-old daughter. Ashley’s mother, Kristi Horn, has tried several times to gain child support from Lohan. He always refused. Perhaps today he’ll change his tune. Or maybe not.

OCTOMOM: Denies Allegations of Ring Theft
Nadya Suleman, a.k.a. Octomom, is denying allegations that she pilfered a 1.5-carat diamond ring from Celebrity Boxing founder Damon Feldman.
Feldman says the ring was actually part of a publicity stunt, but that he never got it back. Nadya was promoting an event called Pillow Fighting Champions back in February when David allegedly dropped to one knee, put a ring on her finger and proposed for a staged photo shoot. But Octo says she was ambushed and had never agreed to the phony proposal. Her rep also says the ring was worthless.
Feldman is suing for $7500 or the ring back, and Nadya says she'll see him in court -- presumably after her stint in rehab for stress, anxiety and exhaustion.
