shania twain stalker arrested
Less than a week before an Ottawa doctor was arrested for violating conditions that he stay away from Shania Twain, he asked a reporter to try to set up a meeting with the Canadian country music singer.
Dr. Giovanni “John” Palumbo had just had charges he criminally harassed Twain by sending her love notes and flowers withdrawn two weeks earlier after Twain didn't show up in court to testify against him.
Palumbo, 50, said he hoped to sit down with Twain and a reporter because he was skeptical that Twain even knew about the court case. He believed her handlers were the ones who wanted him prosecuted.
Palumbo also felt Twain was being unfairly criticized for failing to show up in court by a judge.
The judge in the case had blasted Twain — who lives in Switzerland — for wasting “scarce” court resources by not attending on 7 March 2011, the day the case was supposed to head to trial.
Palumbo was arrested at the Juno Awards just before 10 p.m. after someone — reportedly one of her entourage — recognized him in the crowd at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre.
“It was somebody who was aware he shouldn’t be close to someone,” said Toronto police Const. Isabelle Cotton, noting a police report on the incident did not specify who saw him or who he was supposed to stay away from.
Court documents indicate Palumbo was not to go within 500 yards of Twain, who was being inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame at the awards show. He was also banned from travelling to Toronto unless he was attending the Ontario College of Physicians and Surgeons.
He is facing three charges of breaching his bail conditions.
Palumbo also faces charges of threatening his ex-wife and breaches of probation.
According to court documents, Twain had no direct contact with Palumbo. The letters and flowers were received by her employees. Private security guards were to testify about Palumbo’s alleged presence near her summer residence, according to the prosecution.

According to court documents, Twain had no direct contact with Palumbo. The letters and flowers were received by her employees. Private security guards were to testify about Palumbo’s alleged presence near her summer residence, according to the prosecution.
Palumbo was arrested on Nov. 27, 2009, wearing a Shania Twain T-shirt and carrying a copy of her biography. Palumbo was arrested as he left court, just after an attempt to get probation conditions changed; he had been convicted in April 2009 of assaulting his ex-wife, for which he received a conditional discharge after spending 43 days in jail.
He spent several months at the Royal Ottawa Mental Health Centre following his arrest for allegedly criminally harassing Twain. He was later released on bail.
According to a psychiatric report filed as part of his divorce case, Palumbo is alleged to have sent eight handwritten letters to Twain. The letters were opened by Twain’s assistant and then sent to her business manager. They “declare Palumbo’s love for her and ask her to meet him,” according to the report.
Palumbo also allegedly went to the business of Twain’s brother-in-law, asking him to deliver flowers to the singer. Palumbo had allegedly sent Twain flowers on Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day and her birthday.
In August 2009, personal security notified Twain and she allegedly became concerned for her safety while in Ontario and hired extra guards. There were also reports he attended her grandmother’s funeral on Aug. 10, according to the psychiatric report.
Palumbo was later seen near Twain’s cottage on Aug. 29, but drove away when approached. He was allegedly seen on two other occasions in the same area driving his Lamborghini.
Palumbo reportedly told his probation officer he couldn’t understand why no one in Timmins would introduce him to Twain, whose real name is Eilleen Lange. He added that it was only appropriate to attend the grandmother’s funeral because “he and Lange are going to be family one day.”
According to the psychiatric report, Palumbo believed that if he and Twain did meet, “a romantic relationship would be almost certain to develop.” Palumbo said the letters were not intended to be threatening or frightening and he was never told by anyone that his attentions were unwelcome.

bret michaels files lawsuit against tony award productions
Bret blamed producers for not instructing him on how to safely exit the stage after his performance was over.
In the suit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Michaels claimed he had to be hospitalized for a broken nose and a cut lip.
Six months after the awards, the singer nearly died from a subarachnoid brain hemorrhage and the rocker insists it was no coincidence.
"One of the most common causes of this type of hemorrhage is head trauma exactly like the one Michaels suffered at the hands of the Tony Awards," he said.
Michaels said producers have "failed and refused" to remedy the situation and even blamed him for the accident at the Tony Awards, claiming he "missed his mark."
Michaels is suing for unspecified damages.

jimmy wayne spokesperson
Jimmy Wayne has teamed up with the National Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) Association, an organization that helps America’s abused and neglected children, to become their latest national spokesperson.
Wayne, a former foster child himself, will open the 30th annual National CASA in Chicago on 20 March 2011 by sharing his story and performing for an audience of over 1,500.
In 2010, Wayne walked 1,700 miles across America to raise awareness for the homeless, youth and children in foster care. Throughout his hike, spanning from Nashville to Phoenix, Wayne used the publicity to talk to supporters, the media and lawmakers.
His "Meet Me Halfway" campaign was profiled on television and in newspapers and magazines nationwide, including USA Today, Ladies Home Journal, and People Magazine. On his appearance on the December 2010 CBS special titled "A Home for the Holidays," Wayne made an emotionally powerful plea advocating for youth in foster care.
“We are incredibly proud to be partnering with Jimmy Wayne and are very appreciative of his willingness to support our national cause for children,” said Michael Piraino, CEO of the National CASA Association. “Jimmy’s personal experiences in foster care add immeasurable authenticity to his role as a spokesperson for National CASA. He will be an inspiration to the youths we serve and our national network of volunteers, as well as others who may want to become more involved in helping abused and neglected children.”

country dance for wii
Joining the video game dance craze is Country Dance, a new game from GameMill Entertainment. Country Dance features songs from more than 25 of country’s biggest artists, including Carrie Underwood, Tim McGraw, Toby Keith, Miranda Lambert, Brad Paisley, Blake Shelton, and Darius Rucker as well as favorite tunes from the ’90s like “Achy Breaky Heart,” “Watermelon Crawl” and “Boot Scootin’ Boogie.” Eighteen of the artists featured in the game have won a CMA Award. If you purchase the game at Walmart, you’ll also get a bonus track, Alan Jackson’s “Good Time.”
Like other dance video games on the market, Country Dance puts players through their paces as they mimic the avatar’s on-screen dance moves. The player’s moves are recorded by the Wii’s censor, which determines scoring. Dances range from a 1-star to a 3-star difficulty level, with 3 stars being the hardest. “Chicken Fried,” for instance, is perfect for the beginner, but “Cowboy Casanova” and “Good Time” are not for the faint of heart. Up to four people can play at a time.
Country Dance will hit stores 29 March 2011.
