George Clinton -- One Killed, Three Others Shot After Concert

0731_george_clinton_getty_bn
One person was killed and three others were shot after a fight broke out following a George Clinton concert in Cleveland last night, police tell TMZ.

Clinton performed at something called the eighth annual "Unity in the Park" festival, a free, day-long music event, which featured George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic as the headlining act.

According to police, four people suffered bullet wounds after someone opened fire in the crowd. A 16-year-old was shot in the head, a 20-year-old was shot in the neck, and a 14 and 23-year-old were shot in the leg. They were all transported to a local hospital for injuries.

Police would not say which of the four shooting victims died. 

No arrests have been made.

Casey Anthony -- No Interviews, I'm Getting Treatment

Casey Anthony
won't be sitting down with ABC .. NBC ... CBS or any other network for at least a couple of months -- TMZ has learned Casey will be seeking professional treatment for serious mental issues instead.

Sources close to Anthony tell us ... Casey is seeking treatment for three reasons:

First, Casey now realizes that her questionable behavior when her daughter Caylee went missing back in 2008 stemmed from "obvious mental health issues."

The second reason -- Casey still needs help coping with the "obvious trauma of losing her child."

Third, Casey spent nearly three years in solitary confinement in a Florida jail ... where she spent 23 hours a day in a 4x9 foot cell ... all while facing murder chargers. Our source, directly connected to Casey, tells us, "It messed with her head."

We're told Anthony's attorney, Jose Baez, will continue to field offers on behalf of Casey ... and when she's healthy, Anthony will have the final word on where and how her story will be told.

Ashton Kutcher -- MASSIVE Trailer on 'Men' Set

Ashton Kutcher
is getting the ROYAL treatment on the set of "Two and a Half Men" .... with a MASSIVE kick-ass trailer all to himself -- but to some Charlie Sheen supporters who still work on the show, it's a bit much.  

The mansion on wheels is two stories of awesomeness -- with satellite TV hookups, customized everything ... and "pop out" sections which expand to make the trailer EVER BIGGER!

Problem is ... there are still plenty of Team Sheen people working on the show ... and we're told they feel the mega-trailer is "over the top" and makes Kutcher come off like a "diva."
will+trailer
But he IS the star of the biggest show on TV ... and Charlie had a pretty big trailer too when he worked on the show.

Plus, if someone offered you a badass trailer for free -- you probably wouldn't say "no" either ... right?

Helena Christensen: 'Like any woman, I worry about my body'

The supermodel talks about her glory days in the Eighties modelling for Versace, and her latest assignment as the face of lingerie label Triumph.

Helena Christensen for Triumph Essence

She got intimate with singer Chris Isaak on the beach for his Wicked Game music video; the late Gianni Versace said she had the most beautiful body in the world; and she ruled the catwalks at the height of the supermodels era in the late Eighties. In a word, Helena Christensen was It.

In pictures: Helena Christensen for Triumph Essence

"It's incredible to have been part of fashion history - my whole career has been one big highlight," says Christensen, who still looks every inch the supermodel at 42, her lean figure clad in snug coral jeans and a purple blouse when we meet, her reddish-brown hair framing those famous emerald eyes. "I realise how incredible it is to have worked with so many iconic, inspiring, talented people, to see inside the empires of legendary designers. At the time, I would complain because I'd have stood for hours before an haute-couture show, but now I appreciate what I was part of."

Part of, yet consciously apart from, too: she could have lived the champagne lifestyle of Naomi Campbell and her peers - subjects off limits in this interview - but surprisingly chose to distance herself, focusing instead on her true love, photography. "It was never really about being a model," insists the half-Peruvian, half-Danish model, who was discovered aged 18 when she won Miss Denmark. "It was about learning photography in the most unique way I possibly could. I felt like I was in the best photography school in the world - I had Herb Ritts, Bruce Weber, Richard Avedon and Irving Penn teach me." Her fashion work has featured in Nylon , where she was briefly creative director, Marie Claire and Elle , while her travel photography has appeared in exhibitions for Oxfam.

Motherhood also proved a key factor in her decision to retire from the catwalk; in 1999, she gave birth to her son, Mingus. "Having Mingus was mind-blowing. It's like torture being woken up all night, and then having to function all day, but I have so much love for him." She's no longer with Mingus's father, the American actor Norman Reedus, but refuses to be drawn on her love life, perhaps wary after the tabloid intrusion when she was dating Michael Hutchence, the late INXS frontman, back in the Nineties.

Despite her reticence, that's not to say Christensen hasn't taken modelling assignments in recent years. She's appeared in French Vogue , Harper's Bazaar , Elle and i-D , and worked for brands as diverse as Habitat, Reebok, Walkers, Carlsberg and Specsavers, the lucrative allure of such assignments being hard to ignore. Her latest job is with lingerie label Triumph, which is launching a new premium range, Essence, to celebrate its 125th anniversary. In the campaign, Christensen shows that her trademark smoulder hasn't faded, posing in silky bras, corsets and Fifties-style high-waist knickers. As she enthusiastically describes how she'd wear certain pieces, talking knowledgably about fabric and detail, she admits to doing the campaign because of her "obsession with lingerie and finding the right fit".

Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell back on the catwalk for Louis Vuitton

Being photographed in her smalls for the campaign - and throughout her career - she's all too aware of the pressures of having to look good. "It's really intimidating to go on the beach in a bikini. If someone is painting neon circles around parts of your body, like those pathetic tabloid magazines, it makes me so angry. I can't believe that humans have sunk to this level; it's so ingrained, people are brainwashed with it."

She laughs off the idea of being bikini-ready as something that magazines use to make women worry, even if she herself has helped promote this idea over the years by appearing in them. "Magazines say we need to do all these crazy things in order to look better on the beach. The truth is, work out a bit and get firmer. Get a bathing suit you feel comfortable in. Try to eat a little less of the stuff you know will make you look less firm and don't start two days before you go."

Get set for the holidays

Easy for her to say with her famous curves as in demand as ever, I suggest. "It's not like [I] wake up in the morning going, 'Oh I'm so perfect, I don't need to do anything'. Every [model] I know in this business has the same issues as every other woman, maybe more so. You can easily be made to feel self-conscious in this job."

She took up boxing a few years ago to help her stay in shape. "I box twice a week when I'm at home in New York. When I'm away, I'll try some pathetic attempt to do 10 push-ups and lunges in my hotel room, but I have this wall I need to get over in my mind before I can work out."

She's a big fan of the transformative power of products, but doesn't have any favourites, preferring "anything that is moisturising, the greasier the better. And I love skin tonic sprays for when I'm travelling."

And travel she does, using the opportunity to amass vintage clothes for her wardrobe. "If I have an hour in a city, I go to vintage stores first because it's so much cooler to find a piece that is unique. I love the thought of some girl having worn it before and living her life in it."

Whether she's giving a masterclass in colour-blocking or mooching around Manhattan in geek-chic specs and a vintage tea-dress, she's got great style. "I'm inspired by colours and quirky shapes and designs. I don't like feeling perfectly dressed-up; something has to be a little bit off. Being perfectly matched makes me feel uncomfortable. I ask Mingus his opinion on what I'm wearing and he's like, 'Mom, I'm an 11-year-old boy, how would I know these things?' He's got lots of interesting opinions about me. One moment it's like, 'Oh mum you're so pretty and awesome, I love you so much', and the next he's asking me not to dance around in front of his friends!"

As detached as Christensen was from the other supers, perhaps her biggest regret is not being in George Michael's Freedom , which starred Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Tatjana Patitz and Cindy Crawford. That could explain why she's appearing alongside Crawford, Campbell, Eva Herzigova and Yasmin Le Bon in a reprise, of sorts, for Duran Duran's new music video, Girl Panic! "It's cool to be in a video directed by one of the most innovative and exciting music video directors [Jonas Akerlund] around, with a band that made some of my favourite songs ever and hang out with four cool chicks. I mean, really?" Cover your eyes Mingus, it looks like the dancing isn't going to stop anytime soon.

Are the original supermodels to reunite for Duran Duran?

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is Burberry's new Body

British Transformers star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley goes back to her modelling roots for Burberry's new fragrance, 'Body'.

The 'special project' that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Burberry chief creative officer Christopher Bailey have been teasing the press with has finally been revealed: the 24-year-old is the face - and more importantly body - of Burberry's new fragrance.

Clad in nothing more than a strategically styled Burberry trench, she flaunts the toned, lithe body that has earned her a contract as a Victoria's Secret 'Angel'.

''It's a huge honour to be working with Burberry again, a brand that put my career on the map and helped launch me. To be asked to be the first 'Burberry Body' is an amazing compliment" said Rosie.

The Devon-born model, who is based in Los Angeles with her British actor boyfriend Jason Statham, is also the spokesmodel for the British heritage brand's beauty range.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: 'I was told I had to get into better shape'

"Rosie's effortless style and her staggering beauty made her the natural choice as the first Burberry Body," explained Bailey, who handpicks up-and-coming British names from the worlds of music and film to star in the label's advertising campaigns.

The two have enjoyed a close working relationship since Bailey cast Rosie in a Burberry campaign alongside Control actor Sam Riley. She wore a pink, custom-made Burberry gown to this year's fashion 'Oscars' - the high profile CFDA awards - and made headlines in a neck-plunging, midnight blue creation to the recent London premiere of her first film, Transformers: Dark of the Moon .

Looking sun-kissed and relaxed, supermodel Kate Moss, 37, was pictured leaving top London eatery The Wolseley in the early hours of the morning.

After getting married in her Gloucestershire village on July 1, Moss and new husband Jamie Hince had set sail on their honeymoon aboard Topshop owner Sir Philip Green's luxury yacht. The newly weds' boat took them off the coast of Portofino, Cannes and Corsica, allowing them to top up their tans.

I n pictures: Kate Moss' greatest hits

The guests at their three-day wedding, which was dubbed 'Moss Stock', read like a who's who of the fashion and music world. Yves Saint Laurent designer Stefano Pilati, who designed Jamie's suit, mingled with fellow designer Marc Jacobs, while model Karen Elson cuddled up to her estranged husband, musician Jack White. The guests were entertained by performances by Beth Ditto, Shirley Bassey and Bryan Ferry.

The September issue of American Vogue is rumoured to be featuring images of Moss's wedding and reception, as photographed by Mario Testino.

Kate Moss' wedding in pictures

So, while married life hasn't turned Croydon-born Kate from a high-life loving party girl to a slippers on the sofa kind of housewife just yet, we wonder if she'll scale back her numerous modelling contracts to concentrate on her most romantic assignment to date.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Halston Heritage are no more

It was a match made in fashion heaven, but actress Sarah Jessica Parker's stint at Halston Heritage has come to end after just a year and a half.

The Sex and the City star was made president and chief creative officer of Halston Heritage, the sister label of the Halston brand, in January last year, and championed her creations at numerous press appearances, particularly during the promotional trail for the Sex and the City 2 film.

No comment from either the label or Parker has been made concerning the split, but is alluded to in the August issue of American Vogue, of which the 46-year-old gives an interview and stars on the cover.

The mainline Halston label, which was founded by the late Roy Halston Frowick in the 1960s, is headed up by London Fashion Week designer Marios Schwab. In 2007 it was acquired by Hilco Consumer Capital and film producer Harvey Weinstein's The Weinstein Co, but recent reports suggest that the company is in financial trouble, hiring an investment bank to source more funds.

Although Sarah Jessica Parker's role as fashion-loving Carrie in the hit TV series made her synonymous with luxury style, the mother-of-three was confident that her enthusiasm would make up for her lack of design training, telling WWD: "There is a huge amount I don't know and I am very candid about that, and I am excited to learn. I have no allergy to learning."

Inspired by the archives from the Halston dresses worn by the Studio 54 crowd that counted Liza Minelli, Lauren Bacall, Bianca Jagger and Angelica Huston, the Heritage line is currently stocked by Harrods, My-Wardrobe.com and Net-A-Porter.com.

Chad Ochocinco -- Not Buying a House in New England

Filed under: Chad Ochocinco, Evelyn Lozada, TMZ Sports

0729_chad_ochocinco_getty_ex
Chad Ochocinco is fired up about moving to New England now that he's a member of the Patriots .... but he's not exactly ready to make a long term commitment when it comes to buying a place.

Sources close to the wide receiver tell TMZ ... Chad plans to rent a townhouse for now and wants to see how this year goes with the Patriots before he plunks down a chunk of change on anything substantial.

According to our sources, Chad doesn't need anything too fancy and would rather spend his time traveling back to Florida to see his fiancée, Evelyn Lozada.

Plus, he's gotta save up ... seeing as he might have to fork over some big bucks if he wants to keep his #85 jersey.

Tami from 'Basketball Wives' -- If Meeka Comes Back, I'm Gone!

Filed under: Tami Roman, Meeka Claxton, Basketball Wives, Fights, Celebrity Feuds

0729-tami-meeka-EX
Tami Roman is throwing an ultimatum at the producers of "Basketball Wives" -- either Meeka Claxton does NOT come back next season ... or she walks.

Tami -- who used to be married to NBA star Kenny Anderson -- tells TMZ ... the straw that broke the reality star's back came when Meeka sued her over a fight that went down in Italy last month.

Tami says she knows "things got out of hand" with Meeka ... and she's "embarrassed" that things got violent ... but she was willing to let bygones be bygones ... until Meeka decided to sue.

Now Tami tells us, "I will NOT work with someone who is suing me, when they know what this situation is all about. I want to be clear, if she returns in any way, form or fashion I do not plan on participating."

A rep for Meeka had no comment.

Ex-WWE Wrestler Off the Hook After Controversial Arrest

Filed under: Shad Gaspard, TMZ Sports

0729-shad-getty-ex
Former WWE wrestler Shad Gaspard -- the guy who was PINNED DOWN by 3 officers in Ohio after allegedly JAYWALKING back in March -- will not be prosecuted for resisting arrest ... TMZ has learned.

We broke the story ... part of the arrest was captured on tape ... and Shad -- a very large African American gentleman -- can be heard screaming, "Why am I being arrested? Because I'm big and I'm black?"

Gaspard was charged for resisting arrest -- but according to documents filed in Franklin County Municipal Court this week, the charge has finally been DROPPED. However, he was hit with one lesser charge of obstructing official business and had to pay a fine.

TMZ spoke to Gaspard who tells us he no longer plans to file a lawsuit against the Columbus PD over the arrest ... explaining, "I feel that everything has run its course the proper way, and it’s best I move on from this in a positive light."

He adds, "My only regret is that this incident even happened and I hope that the good police officers in Columbus aren’t judged by the actions of a few bad ones."

Kris Humphries was lumbering around L.A. yesterday when he was asked -- IN FRONT OF Kim Kardashian -- if he was with "the most beautiful girl in world" ... and HE SAID, gasp,  NO!

Granted, his answer was sweet -- that his mom is numero uno and Kim is a close second ... but dude ... seriously ... you should know better.

Scary moment at a Meat Loaf concert in Pittsburgh last night -- when Meat Loaf collapsed on stage ... and medics rushed to his aid. But this story has a happy ending.

After a short time on his back, Mr. Loaf actually got up ... regained his composure ... and FINISHED THE SHOW!

A short time later, during a performance of "Paradise by the Dashboard Light" -- Meat explained everything that went wrong last night:

"I f**king fainted. I have asthma ... I can't breathe ... and then ... oh wait, I forgot ... I got poked by a pin and bled half to death ... and then I got slapped in the face and my tooth is loose."

Helluva night.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is Burberry's new Body

Columnist

British Transformers star Rosie Huntington-Whiteley goes back to her modelling roots for Burberry's new fragrance, 'Body'.

BY Olivia Bergin | 13 July 2011

The 'special project' that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Burberry chief creative officer Christopher Bailey have been teasing the press with has finally been revealed: the 24-year-old is the face - and more importantly body - of Burberry's new fragrance.

Clad in nothing more than a strategically styled Burberry trench, she flaunts the toned, lithe body that has earned her a contract as a Victoria's Secret 'Angel'.

In pictures: Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's rise to fashion fame

''It's a huge honour to be working with Burberry again, a brand that put my career on the map and helped launch me. To be asked to be the first 'Burberry Body' is an amazing compliment" said Rosie.

The Devon-born model, who is based in Los Angeles with her British actor boyfriend Jason Statham, is also the spokesmodel for the British heritage brand's beauty range.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: 'I was told I had to get into better shape'

"Rosie's effortless style and her staggering beauty made her the natural choice as the first Burberry Body," explained Bailey, who handpicks up-and-coming British names from the worlds of music and film to star in the label's advertising campaigns.

The two have enjoyed a close working relationship since Bailey cast Rosie in a Burberry campaign alongside Control actor Sam Riley. She wore a pink, custom-made Burberry gown to this year's fashion 'Oscars' - the high profile CFDA awards - and made headlines in a neck-plunging, midnight blue creation to the recent London premiere of her first film, Transformers: Dark of the Moon .

What would Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wear?

Chad Ochocinco -- I'll Pay to Keep My #85

Filed under: Chad Ochocinco, TMZ Sports, Exclusive, Fashion

0728_chad_Ochocinco_ex
He's been traded to a new team ... but Chad Ochocinco DOES NOT want a new jersey number -- and sources close to the NFL star tell TMZ .. he's willing to do WHATEVER IT TAKES to sport #85 for the New England Patriots this season.

Problem is .... the number currently belongs to Patriots STUD tight end Aaron Hernandez -- who rocked #85 in 2010 ... when he DOMINATED all season long.

We're told Ochocinco -- who CHANGED HIS LAST NAME to match his jersey number a few years ago -- wants to PAY Hernandez to give up the digits ... and sources say Chad feels "no number is too high."

FYI -- jersey numbers don't come cheap -- it cost Clinton Portis a cool $18k to buy the #26 from a teammate when he was traded to the Washington Redskins a few years ago.

Like Hollywood's version of the Camp David Accords, Paris and Nicky Hilton reunited with their old long lost pal Lindsay Lohan for dinner in the Palisades last night.

It appears Paris and Linds are super serious about rekindling their friendship -- they also partied together last weekend at Hilton's Malibu beach pad.

But this time, they made sure everyone could SEE the reunion ... and HUGGED IT OUT at the end of the night -- right in front of the cameras.

Liza Minnelli awarded French Legion of Honour

"I am honoured. I am totally in love with all of you," Minnelli told the assembled group in the elaborately decorated grand salon.

"What I'm really really honoured about is to be a part of France, to be a part of the city and country of my dreams."

The Legion of Honour is bestowed according to different ranks. Minnelli was made the first rank of Chevalier, or knight, in 1987. Her father, director Vicente Minelli, attained the third rank of Commander.

"She's progressing," Mr Mitterrand joked to reporters.

After picking up her award, Minnelli performed at famed Paris music hall The Olympia, the venue where her 1969 appearance became a live album.

Robert Redford, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Clint Eastwood are previous recipients of the French award.

Alex Trebek Gets Restraining Order Against Burglary Suspect

Filed under: Alex Trebek, Celebrity Justice

0728_alex_trebek_mugshot_bn

The female suspect in the Alex Trebek burglary case has been officially slapped with a restraining order, which means she has to stay the hell away from the "Jeopardy" host and his wife -- or else!

According to the San Francisco D.A., 56-year-old Lucinda Moyers must stay at least 150 yards away from the Trebeks.

The judge also set Moyers' bail at $625,000 -- after prosecutors pointed out she had two burglary convictions on her record from back in the '90s.

As TMZ previously reported, Trebek says he snapped his Achilles tendon while chasing after the suspect ... after she allegedly took cash and a bracelet from his hotel room.

Lindsay Lohan -- Bike Curious

Lindsay Lohan is telling friends ... she's committing herself to a healthier, more active lifestyle ... cutting way back on the late-night partying -- and what better way to do that ... than to BUY A BICYCLE.

Sources close to Lindsay tell TMZ, the actress is beginning to face facts -- it's NOT a good idea for her to party at all hours of the morning inside bars, hotels, and restaurants.

Not only is it a terrible influence on a recovering addict -- Lindsay is saying ... it gives people the impression that she's back to her old ways ... when she's not.

Gotta hand it to her -- for the first time in a while, LiLo looks wheelie happy.

It could have been another nasty riot situation -- but thanks to the LAPD, Lady Gaga made it to Jimmy Kimmel's studio in one piece ... and she expressed her gratitude in a handwritten note.

According to sources at the Chateau Marmont -- where Gaga is staying -- a hotel employee handed the note out to fans ... in which LG thanks the police for keeping the peace.

Gaga is set to appear tonight on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!"

As we previously reported, cops in riot gear descended on Hollywood last night -- after an impromptu "Electric Daisy Carnival Experience" premiere concert turned into a free-for-all.  Truth be told ... it was kinda lame. 

Shooting bean bags?  Seriously?
