Dane Cook Fights Eviction with Ol’“I Need Belushi’s Ghost!” Defense
If there’s one thing I love more than waiters who take my drink before it’s finished, it’s people who don’t pick up after their dogs. So imagine my delight when I heard “comedian” Dane Cook is actually being evicted from his apartment building because of repeated dog doo-doo offenses — and, even better, Dane is arguing that he can’t possibly leave because his career is dependent on the spirits of John Belushi and Steve Martin that live in the building.
Oh,

Dane Cook fights eviction not wanting to loose connection w/ Belushi and Martin
A judge has ruled to evict comedian Dane Cook from his Hollywood apartment because he would not pick up after his dog’s, despite constant complaints from residents. Dane, however, is not going down without a fight. The “My Best Friend’s Girl” actor contends that he moved in intentionally to receive inspiration from the fact that John Belushi and Steve Martin used to live in the same complex and if he leaves, he would suffer from “mental and emotional” damage. Cook explains in excerp
Dane Cook Should Be A Lawyer!
Videogum has been respectfully silent on the Dane Cook dog poop scandal, but now it's getting ridiculous. (Wait, NOW it's getting ridiculous?) Basically, Dane Cook's dog pooped all over the common area of his apartment complex. He denied it, but there was video evidence, and finally the owners took him to court. A judge decided to evict Dane Cook. But Dane Cook has attempted to appeal the decision with the most cramazing work of jurisprudence ever. From TMZ:

Dane Cook Begs To Keep Belushi-Haunted Apartment After Dog Doo Drama
You’ve just been given an eviction notice for not picking up your dog’s shit: how do you argue for a second chance? If you’re Dane Cook, you claim that your success depends on living in—and being inspired by—the space once rented by John Belushi and Steven Martin. You see, if you remove Dane Cook and his shit-spraying pooch from his apartment of the last ten years, his career will crumble.
From his petition (via TMZ):

Dane Cook Is An Idiot
"Funny" man Dane Cook recently went on a tirade against the promotional posters for his upcoming movie, My Best Friend's Girl. He wrote all about it on his blog.
But, the following really makes Cook look the moron!
The comic is embroiled in a bitter legal battle over his not picking up after his dog when it poops at his Hollywood apartment.
Last month, a judge ruled to evict the smelly Cook from his apartment complex since no one was picking up after his dog.
So what's Dane to do?

Dane Cook: Full Of Dog Shit
It looks like it's going to be another dog caca-filled week here on Dlisted. That's pretty appropriate, actually. Anyfeces, a judge in Los Angeles has evicted Dane Cook from his apartment, because he won't pick up after his dog's shitty ass even though his neighbor's filed several complaints.
Dane is appealing the judge's decision and claims that if he leaves that apartment, he will suffer emotional distress and his career will tank. You see, Dane said he only lives there, because John Belushi and Steve Ma

'Lakeview Terrace' Grabs #1 Location; 'My Best Friend's Girl' Burns Dane Cook; 'Ghost Town' Winds Up Weekend DOA
SUNDAY AM: For most people, this week's stock market fall and rise was enough of a thrill ride. So I thought North American moviegoers would crave fresh comedy by Friday. Nope. They wanted even more suspense, so they turned out for Sony's PG-13 suspense film Lakeview Terrace directed by Neil LaBute and starring Samuel L. Jackson. The No. 1 pic opened to so-so reviews but made $5.1 million Friday and $6.5 million (+27%) Saturday for a better-than-expected $15.5M debut weekend. Then again, LaBute has a w

Today's object of her disaffection is comedian Dane Cook, with whom Molls has a long, personal history that dates back to her college days as a sketch comic. Watch as our Ms. McAleer relates the time Cook screwed her out of her big break, then yelled at her for being friendly to his incontinent dog. All that, plus your weekend to-dos, after t

John Belushi Died in my Room
Yo,So, I had eggs Benedict at this deli called nate'n'als yesterday, it was so yummy, such a great place for breakfast. I remember my mum used to take me there when I was a kid. It's been there for over 60 years and is definitely worth the visit, some amazing people watching to be done. This guy on the table next to Em and I put 6 of those little bowls of sugar in his porridge; seriously it was like 1:1 part sugar to porridge. And on the other table next to us, there were two LA dads in their 40's with abou
Sophie Monk spotted kissing Maroon 5's Adam Levine!
The spies are out there, and the spies have spoken.
Apparently Aussie singer, actor and occasional model Sophie Monk has been linked to Maroon 5 lead singer Adam Levine. According to sources, the pair were spotted kissing at the famed celebrity hot-spot Chateau Marmont in West Hollywood (where John Belushi died of an overdose in 1982).
Sources said:
They were on the patio at the Chateau Marmont, and they kissed.
No word on what kind of kiss it was, but in our experience, a kiss is a kiss is a kiss
"Best Friend's Girl" fails to deliver on promise - Reuters
Dane Cook is never quite as convincing as when he's playing a total jerk, and the comedian gets to do so in spades in "My Best Friend's Girl."
Lionsgate's raunchy R-rated comedy, about a man with a lucrative sideline driving women back into their spurned boyfriends' arms, opened at No. 3 with disappointing weekend sales of just $8.3 million.
As the appropriately named Tank, Cook garners significant laughs, with Kate Hudson obviously relishing the chance to cut loose as one of

In Los Angeles, if you want to feel like you're not in Los Angeles, stay at the Chateau Marmont. It's the kind of place, hidden as it is off an elbow of the Sunset Strip, where you imagine homesick Europeans holed up between screen tests, drawn to its provincial layout and shadowy bungalows. On this summer day, it's the Saturday Night Live cast members doing the holing up. Amy Poehler is sitting alone, and minutes later Bill Hader arrives -- you know, the guy who isn't Andy Samberg -- not t

Dane Cook claims he can’t be evicted from apt as it will ruin his comic mojo
Dane Cook sure has a funny version of reality. It seems like most celebs think the world operates in a way that is uniquely focused on them. To be fair, we all do this a bit, but celebrities often have this notion reinforced. Cook is no exception. He was evicted from his apartment by a judge because he failed to clean up after his constantly pooping dog. The other tenants didn’t appreciate it, so they took action. And not surprisingly, the court sided with Cook.
However the comedian is fighti

Dane Cook Evicted Over Dog Feces, WTF?
A judge ruled that comedian Dane Cook be evicted from his apartment after failing to clean up his dog's droppings. That's already kinda funny, but it gets much better according to
TMZ:
Cook claims he only rented the apartment in the first place because his heroes, Belushi and Martin, used to live in the same complex back in the day, and according to the court docs filed in L.A. County Superior Court, he would suffer serious "mental and emotional" damage -- and his career would crumble -- if he was forc
