Sharon Stone is making a special TV appearance. The Oscar nominee is slated to do a 4 episode arc on ‘Law & Order: SVU’ coming up in April! According to Entertainment Weekly, she’s set to play a former cop-turned-prosecutor.

It is obviously a thrill and a delight to have a star of Sharons wattage and importance joining SVU, raves SVU boss Dick Wolf.

Sharon won an Emmy back in 2004 for her stint on ‘The Practice’.

I bet fans of the show are going to be pretty psyched to have someone of Sharon’s caliber joining the show?

[HMG] – On December 3rd we reported that Redmond O’Neal had seemingly beaten the lure of narcotics that could have put him in jail.

Well, it seems we were wrong.

Having been clear of drugs for almost six months, the 24-year old recovering addict was arrested for drug use last Tuesday – while free on a 24-hour pass from his existing rehab.

Radar reports Redmond left ‘Impact,’ a highly-regarded rehab facility in Pasadena, CA, and returned the next day looking quite pale. Police were alerted and an arrest was promptly performed.

The son of Farrah Fawcett and Ryan ONeal, and the primary inheritor of almost $5-million when his mom passed away, Redmond was due in court later today for a hearing on his progress in rehab. But this latest arrest breaches an earlier probation and could earn him six years in jail.

He was ordered to spend time at Impact by a Judge, after years of drug use led to several offenses. Whether this latest arrest will really land him in jail has yet to be seen, but we’ll keep you advised…

[HMG] – Nearly as soon as Susan Sarandon and her former longtime partner, Tim Robbins announced they had split two days before Christmas, rumors hit that the 63-year old actress found a new younger man.

She was supposedly getting friendly with business partner Jonathan Bricklin, a 31-year old entrepreneur who runs a ping-pong club in her native New York. But reps for both sides say the two are ‘just friends.’

But Fox 411 sources insist Sarandon spent quality time with Jonathan Bricklin over the holidays, and they appeared to be more than friends:

“The way they touch each other and spend so much time together, they are way more than friends,” says a snitch. “You don’t touch a friend the way those two do.”

For some background, young Mr. Bricklin is the son of Malcolm Bricklin, who founded and owns Subaru of America. He’s also made a short film called ‘Naked Ping Pong,’…so he’s loaded and weird — Just her type!

The new pair are now spending hours together at SPiN – John’s club on Park Avenue – in which Susan’s also known to have invested some money.

She meets him there all the time,” our snitch tells Fox. “She loves being with Jonathan, and they were together over New Year’s as well.”

And while you may be concerned by the 32-year divide, her friends see no basis for doubts;

“She may be 63, but she’s glowing. She hardly wears makeup, and she still looks phenomenal,” a pal gushes. “Susan is too gorgeous to be single.”

But we’re also assured that Mr. Bricklin’s arrival was not what drove Susan and Tim to implode;

“They’d been separated for some time,” says an insider. “It was not a rash decision, and they are very protective of all their children – especially the two boys.”

So where does Susie go from here with her new ping-ponging pal? watch and see…

(HMG) – Seen as a chance for her to “move on” and “start fresh, as Rihanna has reportedly found romance with Matt Kemp of the LA Dodgers. The first rumors about the pair were sparked after Hollywood Life reported, Matt, 25, followed Rihanna, 21, to Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, where she performed at the Emirates Palace on New Years Eve, but chose to extend her trip to a holiday with her brand new beau. Since then the new couple have been spotted and photographed cavorting in a hot tub, kissing and embracing as they relax together. The pictures of the pair together emerged on the day it was reported that Chris Brown had also begun dating again. The singer, who pleaded guilty to assaulting Rihanna, was spotted with an unknown woman in Miami over the New Year.

Vanity Fair picked the best possible time to release an “edgy” photo spread of Tiger Woods, –right as he’s about to get divorced, lose his family, and at the peak of infamy, having been discovered cheating on his wife with a dozen women, more or less, and having paid for countless escorts. Wow, so, the editor over at Vanity Fair seemed to think this was a great time to release shirtless “sexy” photos of the now infamous whoremonger? Good going, VF!

The Huffington Post reports:

“A shirtless Tiger Woods graces the cover of the February issue of Vanity Fair. The magazine features a reflection from Friday Night Lights author Buzz Bissinger and, according to a press release, a “full portfolio” of “never-before-seen photos of a raw, unguarded Woods” taken by Annie Leibovitz.”

Buzz Bisinger reflects somewhat on Woods’ ability, and seemingly superhuman visage, –being able to fool millions into believing he was this wholesome role model, when the interior was just as ugly as any NBA star’s rape charges. The photo spread of Tiger Woods, shirtless and raunchy, we could definitely have done without. On the other hand, the article is sensational, –as only Bisinger knows how to deliver. His insight into Tiger Woods’ exploits, and situation are keen.

Some choice excerpts from VF’s site:

“It wasnt until after the early-morning hours of November 27when Tiger Woods got into his Cadillac Escalade closely trailed by a golf club carried by his likely very furious wife, drove his car far less distance than he putts a golf ball, and hit a fire hydrantthat the tens of millions of us who admired him suddenly came to a realization: this was the first time we had ever seen him do something human, except perhaps for when, at the Buick Open last year, he was caught on video shaking his leg, apparently farting, and then grinning like a frat boy.

We know all too well the unraveling that has gone on since the crash. Tigers little car ride was as pregnant with imminent implosion as the one taken by another sports celebrity on the San Diego Freeway, followed by a convoy of Los Angeles police cars, in 1994. Tigers story has been driven by sex, tons of it, in allegedly all different varieties: threesomes in which he greatly enjoyed girl-on-girl, and mild S&M (featuring hair-pulling and spanking); $60,000 pay-for-sex escort dates; a quickie against the side of a car in a church parking lot; a preference for porn stars and nightclub waitresses, virtually all of them with lips almost as thick as their very full breasts; drug-bolstered encounters designed to make him even more of a conquistador (Ambien, of all things); immature sex-text messages (Send me something naughty … Go to the bathroom and take [a picture], I will wear you out … When was the last time you got [laid]?); soulful confessions that he got married only for image and was bored with his wife; regular payments of between $5,000 and $10,000 each month to keep his harem quiet. Its all there and more in what is the greatest single fall in popularity of a nonpolitician in the history of public-opinion surveys: a drop in approval from 87 percent in 2005 to 33 percent, with an unfavorable rating of 57 percent, according to a recent USA Today/Gallup poll.

…

There was once, in fact, a sustained glimpse of the real Tiger Woods. In 1997, Charles Pierce, writing for GQ, got inside. Tiger was 21 at the time, on the eve of winning his first of four Masters. For somebody who at the age of two had appeared on The Mike Douglas Show (where, with a perfect swing, he miraculously hit a stunning shot into the center of a net), he seemed remarkably nave and remarkably stupid about the ways of the media. The interview was largely a series of profane quips by Tiger, such as What I cant figure out is why so many good-looking women hang around baseball and basketball. Is it because, you know, people always say that, like, black guys have big dicks? At another moment, during a photo shoot where four women attended to his every need and flirted with him as he flirted back, he told a joke: He rubbed the tips of his shoes together and then asked the women, Whats this? They were stumped. Its a black guy taking off his condom.

There came another joke about why two lesbians always get to where they are going faster than two gay guys: because the lesbians are always going 69. Pierces interview, which he taped, was the only honest and open one Woods has ever given. After that the steel wall of insulation came down, spearheaded by I.M.G.

…

The swirling question is if, and when, he will return to golf. Most observers think he will, but with companies such as Accenture, Gillette, and Tag Heuer basically fleeing for the hills, he would simply be a golfer trying to win a tournament. His focus is such that he can likely still win, whatever the insanity surrounding him, but life will be different. Donald Trump thinks he will come back bigger than ever, a sure sign the opposite will happen.

In the end it was the age-old clash of image versus reality, the compartmentalization of two different lives that inevitably merge at some certain point, whoever you are. He exhibited the same superhuman confidence off the golf course that he exhibited on it, apparently convinced he would never be caught despite the stupid sloppiness at the endtext messages, voice-mail messages. He deluded himself into thinking he could be something that he wasnt: untouchable. The greatest feat of his career is that he managed to get away with it for so long in public, the bionic man instead of the human one who hit a fire hydrant.”

The photos are gross, but again, Bisinger’s coverage of the sports icon falling from grace is very insightful, and captivating. It’s definitely intuitive; Tiger Woods goes from the typical jock, to basically a robot, a split personality, and hides behind some manufactured image while screwing around. The scandal isn’t surprising because of its sheer audacity, or his unconventional behaviour, –it’s because he was practically designed to be perfect by sponsors, and major sports companies.
