Comedian Katt Williams was back in jail over the weekend, after an incident with a tractor trailer driver in Palmdale, CA on Saturday.

According to TMZ:

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … a man doing tractor work on a Palmdale home where Katt was staying claims three women approached his vehicle and began attacking him with rocks and dirt clods around 4:30 Saturday afternoon.

The man, who says he suffered facial injuries in the attack, called his wife to pick him up — but when she arrived, Katt pulled up in an SUV and blocked their exit.

That’s when the man called 911.

The L.A. County Sheriff’s Dept. quickly arrived to the scene — arrested the women for assault with a deadly weapon and busted Katt for felony intimidating a witness.

Katt was hauled to a nearby station, where he was booked. Bail was set at $50,000. Williams was released later that night.

Getting arrested is nothing new for 39-year-old actor.

Williams was arrested for a burglary in 2009, and again in 2010 on assault charges.

In an upcoming exclusive interview with hiphopdx.com, Mobb Deep’s Prodigy reveals that he shares the same sentiment as Lupe Fiasco in regards to Obama being, “the biggest terrorist.”

“I would have to agree with him,” said P. “Most of these politicians and these government officials…most of them are the real terrorists.”

Prodigy says despite his incarceration he kept a close eye on Obama’s politics.

“Yeah, I was definitely checking [Obama] out and seeing what he was doing and what he was about. But I already knew ahead of time – I’ve been studying all that type of stuff since like 15, 16 years old, so… You can’t pull the wool over my eyes. I already know what time it is.”

The Queens rapper said he has a full grasp on the misgivings of politicians and the US government.

“There’s nothing you can say to confuse me about any of that type of stuff. I know it’s all a game that they’re playing. It’s all a facade,” he said.

NEW YORK — Saxophonist Clarence Clemons of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band has suffered a stroke.

A person who has worked with Clemons in the past confirmed Sunday night that Clemons had the stroke. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the person was not authorized to speak on the matter. The person had no additional information on Clemons’ condition.

Clemons is known as the Big Man in the E Street Band and his sax has been one of the most defining elements of the band’s sound. He has suffered from numerous ailments over the last few years. He had double knee surgery and even had to perform from a wheelchair at one point.

But his health seemed to be improving. Just last month, he performed with Lady Gaga on the season finale of “American Idol.”

He is 69 years old.

CULVER CITY, CA — Standing on the soundstage where Fred Astaire once danced and Dorothy skipped down the yellow brick road, Morgan Freeman accepted the American Film Institute’s Life Achievement Award.

Clint Eastwood, Sidney Poitier, Helen Mirren, Samuel L. Jackson, Tim Robbins and Forest Whitaker were among the stars who feted Freeman during a ceremony Thursday at Sony Studios, former home of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.

The storied Stage 15 — which AFI Chair Sir Howard Stringer said was once graced by Astaire and Judy Garland in film — was transformed into an elegant ballroom, its walls draped in red and gold and dotted with giant framed photos of Freeman, whom Poitier introduced as “a prince of the craft of acting.”

In a room filled with hundreds of his colleagues and friends, Freeman listened to star after star share what they admire about him and his work. The 74-year-old Oscar winner sat at the head table near the center of the room, beaming.

Jackson told the actor he was inspired by both Freeman’s work and his words. “In a world of too much cubic zirconium, you are the real thing,” he said.

Whitaker called Freeman an “adviser, a beacon, a confidant, a shoulder to lean on, protector, and friend,” both in real life and in the characters he has played on film.

The AFI ceremony will air as a special on TV Land on June 19.

TAMPA — Actor Danny Glover and one of reggae legend Bob Marley’s sons are voicing their support for Grammy-winner Buju Banton, who is awaiting sentencing in a drug trafficking case.

The Jamaican singer was convicted in February in Tampa federal court of conspiring to set up a cocaine deal in 2009. He faces a mandatory minimum 15-year prison sentence.

In court documents filed Thursday seeking a shorter sentence, Banton’s attorney, David Markus, included letters of support from the singer’s fans and some of his 15 children.

Glover wrote that Banton is a role model and spiritual leader. Reggae singer Stephen Marley wrote that Banton “has inspired and uplifted many” throughout his career.

Atlanta Hawks basketball player Etan Thomas wrote that he still hopes to include Banton in a book he’s planning about fatherhood.

Banton’s sentencing is June 23.

MIAMI BEACH — Rapper Flo Rida hid his face and refused to comment as he left a Miami police station Thursday, hours after being arrested for DUI in a $1.7-million sports car.

The musician emerged from with a towel draped over his head and was flanked by his entourage as he headed silently toward an awaiting car.

Flo Rida, whose real name is Tramar Dillard, was arrested in Miami Beach after police caught him driving erratically in his red and black Bugatti Veyron — a sleek, luxury car capable of reaching 255 mph.

Dillard reportedly had bloodshot eyes and was slurring his speech when he was pulled over.

The “Low” hitmaker reportedly measured .185 on a breathalyzer test, more than twice the legal limit.

A large crowd gathered around the rapper, with bystanders apparently urging cops to let the celebrity suspect go unpunished.

Breathe a sigh of relief, “SVU” fans! Even though Chris Meloni won’t be back as Elliot Stabler, one of the detectives is returning.

Rapper Ice-T, who plays the street-smart Fin Tutuola, tweeted some good news about his contract: “I’ve just I’ve just locked in my new SVU deal.. So I’ll officially be back for the next 2 years at least. DONE,” he told followers.

As for replacements for Meloni and Hargitay, it sounds like no one’s been chosen to fill their big shoes yet. “At this moment no one else is locked as new members of the show..,” Ice-T added.

Here’s to hoping that Richard Belzer’s hilarious conspiracy fan John Munch and Tutuola become the new central characters.

Jennifer Hudson was hospitalized Friday morning with stomach pains during a break between concert appearances on ABC’s ‘Good Morning America’ and CBS’ ‘Early Show,’ her rep told reporters and fans.

But before she could hit the CBS stage she became ill with “abdominal pain” and was “unable to perform” and was taken to an undisclosed hospital and released.

Thandie Newton has revealed that she has come to terms with a traumatic relationship with a film director 23 years her senior who she claims took advantage of her innocence as a teenager.

She spoke about her six-year affair with director John Duigan which she began when she was 16 after traveling to Australia to audition for his film “Flirting,” which starred Nicole Kidman.

The Bafta-winning actress has said the relationship left her feeling ‘self-destructive’ and said she has only spoken about it ‘so teenagers can see they can resist and gain self-awareness’.

Speaking to InStyle magazine, Miss Newton, 38, star of Mission: Impossible II, The Pursuit of Happyness and Rock ‘n Rolla, claims Duigan took advantage of her when she was vulnerable.
