Celebrity Dirt - 10.27.11

Michael Lohan was just arrested AGAIN in Florida after allegedly contacting his GF Kate Major -- and law enforcement tells TMZ, he tried to escape by jumping off a 3rd-story balcony ... and plummeting 34 feet to the ground. According to law enforcement sources, Tampa police responded to a call early this morning from Kate, who claimed Michael had been trying to contact her by phone and wouldn't leave her alone. TMZ reports that officers interviewed Kate at her apartment after she made the call -- the same apartment where Michael allegedly bruised her up earlier this week -- and while they were there, Michael allegedly called again.

 

Don’t make momma mad! Cher is slamming the Dancing With the Stars judges over comments they made about her son Chaz.

After Chaz was booted Tuesday night, Cher tweeted, "Your mom 'could cut a bitch.'" Apparently she took offense to judge Bruno Tonioli calling Chaz a "penguin" on the show. She wrote, "To the gentleman? I didn't know who you were before, which I guess is a blessing! Going home is fine, but why insult him before he goes! As for the older gentleman [judge Len Goodman]...every show needs a grumpy old man!"

Chaz was furious with the judges, too, telling Access Hollywood, "I felt throughout that there was some bias against me, but it doesn't, in any way, tarnish the experience of being part of this show."

Bruno also compared Chaz to an Ewok during his critiques.

There's no word on a release date for the album, but the tour will hit England, Ireland,Switzerland and Germany early next year.
