Cuba Gooding Jr. Escorted In Handcuffs As Second Woman Comes Forward - While Cuba Gooding, Jr is an Oscar-winner – he also stands accused of being a groper. Yesterday we told you there was some question about him turning himself into police in New York following allegations of getting grabby with a woman in a bar this past Sunday. Well, he did – and cameras caught it all. The 51-year-old Oscar-winning showed up at Manhattan's Special Victims Division, and later was seen being led away in handcuffs before pleading not guilty to accusations of “forcible touching.” Afterwards, his attorney, Mark Heller, spoke to reporters saying Gooding did nothing wrong – and maintains there are not only witnesses, but video to prove his client’s version of events. Heller offered, “There is not the slightest scintilla of inappropriate conduct on his part.” Meanwhile, a second woman is coming forward and accusing actor Cuba Gooding Jr. of groping. The woman, who has not been named, says that back in 2008, Gooding grabbed her backside. Heller’s calling it nonsense. “There is no pattern of conduct," he told reporters. "It is not uncommon for people to come out of the woodwork when these things happen." Either way, Gooding is scheduled to appear in court later this month.

Biel writes that she’s all for vaccinating your kids, she just wants parents to have the choice to “make educated medical decisions for their children alongside their physicians.” “I am not against vaccinations,” the post reads. “I believe in giving doctors and the families they treat the ability to decide what’s best for their patients and the ability to provide that treatment.”
Madonna Will "Never Say Never" To More Kids - Sometimes it’s easy to forget that Madonna is a mother of six, and she admits she’s learned a lot from having to take care of so many children.

They teach you to stop being obsessed with yourself, cause they're always there to throw a wrench into the works. ... Self-obsession is not allowed with children." She adds, "The more kids that you have, the better you get at being a parent." So, would she be open to adding to her family? "Um ... not right this second," she said. "But never say never."
Sophie Turner’s Bachelorette Party- As you may recall, Sophie Turner and Joe Jonas are set to tie the knot a second time with a ceremony in Paris. Ahead of the wedding, Turner and a bunch of her girlfriends enjoyed a night out in Europe for her Bachelorette party.

She then wrote a lengthy caption that said, “Sometimes we walk away and sometimes we choose to allow love to expand into a place often unvisited.

Cuba Gooding Jr. Might Not Surrender In Groping Case - Will he or won’t he? That’s the question we’re all asking about whether or not Cuba Gooding Jr. will turn himself in today. As we’ve told you, he’s been accused of groping a woman at a bar in New York City. He was supposed to turn himself in, but that might not happen now. The plan was for the Oscar winner to surrender at Manhattan Special Victims Unit with his lawyers, Peter Toumbekis and Mark J. Heller, in tow. At that time, he’ll be fingerprinted and have his mug shot taken. However, Heller viewed the surveillance video from the night in question and has decided that there was “absolutely no criminality taking place” as far as Cuba is concerned. He questions whether the Manhattan DA’s Office Sex Crimes Unit has actually seen the footage because he can’t believe that they’d want to arrest his client. Because of that, he’s not sure that Cuba will turn himself in. =====================================

"We started with seven shows" in Brooklyn, Fogel says, "then added five more to get to 12 shows then added another five to get to 17. I'm adding shows because it's a flop? Is that some kind of new business model that I'm not familiar with?" Ticket prices could be playing a role in why Madonna hasn’t fully sold out the tour, with front row seats going for $1,650 plus fees, while front orchestra seats range in price from $1,350–$700, with other areas in the house going for, $550 and $359.
