SNOOKI'S HUBBY PLEADS GUILTY TO DUI

First he said, "I do." Then he pleaded guilty.

Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi's husband pleaded guilty on Monday (1 DEC. 2014) in Totowa, New Jersey, to driving under the influence. The charges stem from his arrest on Interstate 80 in August.

The plea came two days after 27-year-old Jionni LaValle and the MTV reality series star got married at a "Great Gatsby" themed wedding.

A Municipal Court official tells NJ.com charges of unsafe lane changes and careless driving were dropped.

LaValle's driver's license was suspended for three months and he was ordered to pay a $614 fine attend classes on the dangers of drinking and driving.

Polizzi and LaValle have two children, ages 2 and 2 months. They live in Morris County, New Jersey.

RAPPERY YOUNG JEEZY SEES WEAPON CHARGE DISMISSED

A felony weapons charge against platinum-selling rapper Young Jeezy has been dismissed after a prosecutor said there wasn't enough evidence to support the case.

Orange County Deputy District Attorney Renee Jones sought the dismissal during a court hearing Thursday (11 DEC. 2014) but declined to elaborate on what new information led to it.

Jeezy, whose real name is Jay Wayne Jenkins, and five others were arrested in August after authorities served a search warrant at the Verizon Amphitheatre in Irvine and found an AK-47.

Police were investigating the death of a man who was shot backstage at a concert Jeezy co-headlined with Wiz Khalifa days earlier at the Shoreline Amphitheatre in Mountain View. Jeezy and the other five, who included a tour bus driver and his wife, were never identified as suspects in the killing.

Jeezy and the others each pleaded not guilty to a single count of felony possession of an assault weapon.

The rapper did not attend Thursday's hearing but attacked his arrest and the filing of charges. "I pray this had nothing to do with race, but it definitely had nothing to do with evidence," Jeezy wrote.

He criticized what he called a rush to judgment by the media and police.

"I'm relieved that the truth has ultimately prevailed, and I would like to thank those who have always stood by me including my family and fans," Jeezy wrote.

Jones said the investigation into the shooting death of Eric Johnson, 38, is ongoing.

Orange County Superior Court Judge Robert C. Gannon granted the dismissal and said he would sign orders allowing Jeezy and his entourage to regain their passports and other property seized from them.

Jeezy's attorney Blair Berk said she was pleased the case was dropped but said the rapper should not have been arrested or charged.

"I think I came up with the name 'The Recession' like mid-stream into the album because when I looked at a lot of the songs I had like 'My President' and 'Crazy World,' I was just like maybe I'm paying too much attention to what's going on. And I didn't want my music to come out in a depressed, negative way. So I just kind of looked at what I had and I was like the rest of the songs I'm going to do are going to be those 'we shall overcome' like anthems; that were always made, but were more street. But now I want to make them for everybody; you don't even have to be from the street to know where I am coming from, even though that's what the music is intended for, I just want to put it into terms that everybody can get it."

STORYLINE:

MAN SENTENCED IN FATAL STABBING OF MORGAN FREEMAN'S GRANDDAUGHTER

A man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for the fatal stabbing of actor Morgan Freeman's step-granddaughter in New York City.

Prosecutors say 33-year-old Lamar Davenport stabbed his girlfriend E'Dena Hines multiple times while under the influence of alcohol and drugs in August 2015.

Davenport issued an apology during his sentencing hearing Thursday, and said, ``I don't remember what happened.''

Davenport was convicted of first-degree manslaughter in May.

Hines was an aspiring actress and played a small role in the movie ``5 Flights Up'' along with Freeman and Diane Keaton.

Freeman said in a statement after her death that ``the world will never know her artistry and talent.''

His publicist previously said that while Hines was Freeman's step-granddaughter, he referred to her as his granddaughter.

"We''ve got a lot of rare archival photos of him sparring with the press and press conferences. They often asked Elvis''s personal feelings on political issues and he steered clear of it - which set him apart from his contemporaries like The Beatles. Elvis wanted to make music, he didn''t necessarily want to make headlines and he certainly didn''t want to make controversy, as ironic as that is from a man who was very controversial when he came on the scene."

"Apparently, if you are the king of Rock and Roll you can get into the Oval Office on short notice. And that is what happened that day, there was actually Elvis fans inside the White House who made it happen. Elvis walked in, met Nixon and offered his services to help fight the war on drugs. Which obviously has more than a little bit of irony to it."

LEADIN

The hip-swinging, generation-defining career of Elvis Presley is the subject of a new exhibition in the US.

On show are rare possessions from the Presley estate, including his daughter''s footprints and a signed champagne bottle.

STORYLINE

In what would have been Elvis Aaron Presley''s 75th birthday year, the Newseum in Washington D.C. is retelling the story of the music sensation as he was portrayed in the news media.

The exhibit examines how Presley''s music and physicality pushed the boundaries of U.S. mainstream taste and free expression.

Ken Paulson, Newseum''s President, says the young performer was controversial as soon as he landed on stage.

"You know, it is hard to imagine in an era of Lady Gaga, but this man stood on stage, shook his hips and startled America. "

Paulson says the exhibit traces Presley''s rise to prominence from a regional star to a global icon, who combined traditionally black rhythm and blues with white country music and a swivel of his hips, bringing teenage girls screaming to his concerts.

"Press coverage was highly critical, they talked about his threat to the morals of this country and how if this were not stopped young people would be subjected to all kinds of immoral thoughts and sexual thoughts." says Paulson.

It seems the negative press helped turn Presley into the "King of Rock and Roll".

The exhibit also shows rarely seen photographs and film footage of news conferences.

At a 1972 news conference in Madison Square Gardens, just before performing in four sell-out concerts, Presley avoids answering a reporters question about the Vietnam War draft.

"They (reporters) often asked Elvis''s personal feelings on political issues and he steered clear of it - which set him apart from his contemporaries like The Beatles," Paulson says.

There is also memorabilia from Presley''s notorious visit to the White House during President Richard Nixon''s tenure.

Without an appointment, Presley drove up to the White House gates and asked to see the president.

Within hours he was in the Oval Office offering his help in an anti-drug campaign and asking for a Federal badge to inspire him.

Not only does the exhibit show a photograph of the encounter, it also displays the badge and a pair of cufflinks Nixon presented to Presley.

Designed in conjunction with Elvis Presley Enterprises, the exhibit includes a number of rare objects from the vaults of Graceland that have never been publicly displayed.

The private memorabilia on display for the first time includes the footprints of ''Girl Presley'' as Lisa Marie Presley was known at birth, as well as a champagne bottle signed by the newly weds from the Aladdin Hotel - a gift for Presley''s parents.

Ardent Presley fan, Diane Lewis from Mississippi, delayed her return home by a day to get a sneak peak as workers raced against the clock to finish the displays in time for the opening.

Although she''s visited Graceland, Presley''s home, Lewis enjoyed seeing some of the personal artifacts for the first time.

Even Presley''s death foreshadowed a new era in tabloid news standards, Paulson believes.

"When Presley died in 1977 a photograph was taken of him in his casket at the morgue, I think it was about 17,000 dollars the National Enquirer paid for that photograph and it became their biggest selling issues to date. But you know, you talk about celebrity journalism and having no shame, we see a lot of it today, it really became in the Elvis 70s era and he was the victim of it."

The exhibit runs through to February 14, 2011.

STEPHEN COLLINS DENIES HE'S A PEDOPHILE IN INTERVIEW

Embattled actor Stephen Collins says he's not a pedophile and insists he has inappropriately touched a minor on only one occasion.

In an interview with Yahoo's Katie Couric, the "7th Heaven" star described himself instead as someone suffering from "exhibitionist urges" and "big boundary issues."

Those issues prompted a physical encounter with an underage girl in 1973.

According to Collins, the girl had come to visit and stay with him and his first wife. After his wife had gone to sleep, he and the girl were watching TV together.

"I took her hand and moved it in such a way that she was touching me inappropriately," he said. "I knew that something unthinkably wrong had just happened that I couldn't take back."

He also said he exposed himself to a teenage girl in 1982 and another in 1994.

He said he has had no such urges since 1994.

Collins, who is being investigated by the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department on molestation allegations but has not been charged with any crime, characterized his actions with the girl and the two teens as "terrible, and I regret them deeply," adding, "I'm absolutely not attracted, physically or sexually attracted, to children. I'm just not."

In response to Couric's direct question, Collins said he has never been attracted to young boys.

Collins said he's been in treatment and religious counseling for 20 years.

"I'm a human being with flaws," he said. "I have dealt with them very, very strongly and commitedly in my private life."

In October, TMZ released a 2012 audio recording of Collins purportedly acknowledging molesting underage girls during a marriage-counseling session with his estranged wife, actress Faye Grant. Collins said Grant recorded the session without his or the therapist's consent. Grant has said she gave police the audio only after Collins refused to seek appropriate treatment. But she has denied giving the recording to TMZ.

Within hours of TMZ posting its story, two TV networks announced they were canceling scheduled re-runs of "7th Heaven," and Collins lost roles in the upcoming film "Ted 2" and this season of the ABC series "Scandal." Collins had played a devoted family man and pastor on the wholesome drama "7th Heaven" for 11 seasons.

Los Angeles police investigated him in 2012 and reviewed their case in October but a spokeswoman said Friday there were no updates on its status. Los Angeles Sheriff's Department detectives also opened an investigation into Collins over an early 1980s incident, but as of Friday had not presented their case to prosecutors.

Collins and Grant remain in divorce proceedings.

Excerpts from the interview were released on the Yahoo website and aired on ABC News programs Friday (19 DEC. 2014).
