Will Lance Be Banned?
Friday, April 10th, 2009
Lance Armstrong is afraid officials of the Tour de France may ban him from competing due to the controversy over his recent drug test.
Armstrong has stated there’s a “very high likelihood” he will not be allowed to race for an eighth Tour de France title. The French drug testing agency has indicated it may punish Armstrong for not remaining within the sight of the official who came to his home to collect his hair, urine and blood on March 17.
Armstrong claims he went inside his house to shower while his assistant checked the official’s credentials, and that his tests came back negative.

Lance’s Boozy Flight
Wednesday, March 25th, 2009
Sure, cyclist Lance Armstrong is hurting from a broken collarbone, but that’s no excuse for the boorish behavior he displayed on a recent flight from Madrid to Atlanta.
E!’s Ted Casablanca reports that one of Lance’s fellow passengers gave this observation of his in-flight conduct. “He was such an asshole. He was so wasted on painkillers, and he drank a lot. It was just obnoxious.”
How drunk was he? “Enough to be cut off,” Ted’s snitch sniped. Considering that famous passengers in first class are generally allowed to imbibe to their heart’s content, that’s a lotta booze. And mixing the hard liquor with painkillers is a killer—in the worst cases, literally.

Police have recovered a one-of-a-kind bicycle stolen from Tour de France legend Lance Armstrong last weekend in Sacramento, CA. The AFP reports an unnamed person brought the Trek training bicycle to a Sacramento police station.
Armstrong has ridden the bike in the opening round of the Tour of California on Saturday and later, it was one of several stolen from an Astana team truck parked behind a hotel.
On Sunday, Armstrong sent out an SOS to more than 128,000 Twitter members who have signed on to receive his messages. No word on whether one of those fans helped find the bike, but police intend to return it to Armstrong.

Lance And Girlfriend Expecting
Wednesday, December 24th, 2008
Lance Armstrong got a very special holiday surprise this year—he and girlfriend Anna Hansen are expecting a baby in June. This is something of a miracle since he was told that chemotherapy for cancer he suffered in the 90s had left him sterile. Armstrong and ex-wife conceived three children with sperm he had donated before the treatment but this time around, the pregnancy happened without medical fertilization. Congratulations, guys!

Magazine Covers: Goldie’s Kid On ‘W’
Thursday, August 7th, 2008
Kate Hudson is on the cover of the September issue of W Magazine and I’m diggin’ the super rich crimson lips. Loves. It. Katey just broke up with cyclist Lance Armstrong a few weeks ago after three months of dating. Is that even considered dating – three months? That’s like – hanging out. Anyway, she had a few things to say about relationships in the new issue. In regards to being open about her love life: “I’ve learned that things are better left private until you’re actually planning the wedding,” she told W. “It’s so hard for me, because I’m so open, to hold back,” she went on. “I could really just go on forever about this stuff.” Kate was married to rocker Chris Robinson (whom she has son, Ryder, with) and also dated actor Owen Wilson. If you want to get more of the regular deets on Kate, check out the new issue out in newsstands August 19.
