Alrighty then.
How can you get arrested for being drunk at an airport? I mean, unless you are being a total ass/causing a scene? I know this guy's a self-destructive idiot, but I've been at least half drunk at airports once or twice in my day, usually coming off the plane. What's the problem?

Well, he's a total ass even while sober so that's probably it.

ETA: I wasn't even aware he was working on a solo album, much less released it and went double platinum. Lucky me. That's troubling news though.

The thing I get shocked about?

His solo album has gone double platinum. WTF?

His people probably bought a crapload of them and they're sitting in a warehouse in East Bumfuck. Kinda like how you can manipulate your own book sales.

I really only know Stapp from Celebrity Poker Showdown where he was, without question, the worst player they have ever had. Ever.

TWICE there'd be like... 2 pair on the board, someone won with a bigger two pair, and he'd jump up "I had two pair!" in a tone equal parts injured and bewildered, only to have someone explain to him that THEY ALL HAD TWO PAIR, but that one guy's was better.

In fact, his antics were so bizarrely awful, it's used as a measuring stick in our home poker games. "What happened on that hand? You Stapped."

I'm surprised he didn't say "But Jesus is my kicker!"

From here:

After his wedding in February, Stapp will launch his first dry tour. (A sobriety coach will travel with him.)

Good luck with that.

Ew

There's more trouble on the horizon for newlywed and Creed frontman Scott Stapp, 32. Us Weekly has learned exclusively that a sex tape involving the singer and fellow musician Kid Rock, 35, is set to be released. The tape shows both stars involved in explicit sex acts on a tour bus while touring together six years ago. The two don't engage in any sex acts together, but are seen and heard talking to one another during the acts. Footage was acquired by the Red Light District, the same company that distributed Paris Hilton's infamous sex tape One Night in Paris. 'We acquired the tape from a third party' says Red Light's president David Joseph. 'We haven't decided exactly what we are doing with it but our goal is to release it towards the middle or end of this year.' Representatives for Kid Rock and Stapp could not be reached. Stapp wed former Miss New York Jaclyn Nesheiwat, 25, on February 10 in Miami. He was arrested for public drunkeness the following day at LAX airport while enroute to his honeymoon in Hawaii. Stapp was treated for substance abuse in December 2004.

These lyrics suddenly have new meaning:

Welcome to this place
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open

I'm not so sure I ever wanted Scott Stapp to show me everything.

He's not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Man, I wonder if he was flying Southwest? That's an episode of Airline that I'd love to see! hee! He must have really been acting particularly tooly to get arrested. Usually they just refuse to let them fly. If I were the new wife, I'd definitely be looking into anulment proceedings STAT!

Whenever I see the wifey's last name I can't help but read it as "Newasshat."

[berrybearie]

... which is what she just acquired with her marriage.
