"According to a restraining order, that was never filed, Miller, who played for the Indiana Pacers, met Ms Kay at a party in July last year.
In March of this year he then bumped into her at a grocery store, then waited outside for an hour until she left, before following her up a motorway.

He also allegedly harassed her by phone, including sending her 53 text messages over the course of less than four hours.
According to the document, when confronted by Mr von Furstenberg, who owns a surf shop in Malibu, Miller turned threatening.
'He said he had friends with guns. He implied I would get hurt if I didn't stop questioning him on his inappropriate pursuit of my fiancee and his attempts to subvert his efforts,' Mr von Furstenberg wrote."
I just don't get it.
You're famous, and can have your pick (probably)...why embarrass yourself?
People are just stupid, and no amount of fame or money can buy sense.

My mother has been in and out of hospital over the years, and the care that she's received has been exemplary.
Hospital staff, EMS workers, Doctors...all of them.
My own care when I was sick years ago was very good. I can't complain about it. I didn't like my first Specialist, I was given the option of others.
The second Specialist was wonderful.
Kind and compassionate.
No matter how many Canadians complain about our healthcare system....it isn't this.
So, while there is two tiered healthcare in this country for those who can afford speedier tests, and more comfortable hospital stays...for the rest of us, our healthcare system is good.
Not perfect.
But, at least existent for everyone.
While American zealots can predict euthanasia, and sinister government conspiracies, my own experience in this country has been Doctors who have chosen their profession for the right reason.
My own Doctor whom I've been with since I was 18 years old...and about whom I complain on occasion because sometimes I wait over an hour to see her....when she sits with me, and examines me...spends sometimes 40 minutes to an hour talking about my life situation, my health, and reminding me that she has known me, and taken care of me, and watched my health since I was 18.
It's comforting.
I know that not everyone has been as fortunate as I have been with healthcare providers, but...I have nothing to complain about.
It's not this.
My healthcare has been free.
How anyone can be against US healthcare reform is baffling to me.
Thanks SinPantalones for the link.
I love NPR.
"Now, the girl was a consenting partner (inasmuch as you can consent to anything when you’re 11 years old.) She got drunk on cider to steel herself up for it and then posted the pictures herself, even captioning one as “tits oot.” So maybe she is this mythical wild child succubus or whatever, but really the whole thing all around speaks to just a weirder, bigger cultural phenomenon. Is there really any doubt that this little girl is emulating “adult” pop starlets with their sex tapes and leaked nude photos that make them all the rage and suddenly legit? And is there any doubt that this little dude is taking his sexual assault trial behavior cues from celebrity adult role models?"

Karee Gibson has potentially traded 15 minutes of "fame" for a few years in the pen. Her behavior on WEtv's "Bridezillas" was so whacked out that it actually violated her parole, and now she's facing jail time.
Seriously.
Some brides to be are insane.
