Parents Kathy and Rick (and a horde of paparazzi) were on hand to ferry their little girl home.
Finally, Tom Sizemore ran out of second and third chances. Given credit for the 213 days he has already served, which works out to about nine months of time served, the actor was sentenced Monday to 16 months in the slammer for violating his probation in a previous drug case. There is nothing like jail for going cold turkey.

Isaiah Washington has been in preliminary talks with NBC about a new TV deal, but the talks have stalled, according to the Hollywood Reporter. It was unclear whether the network was interested in adding the fired Grey’s Anatomy star to an existing series or casting him in a new project. Washington alluded to discussions with the network in a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, claiming that he and his agent “are sorting through a ton of offers in both film and TV... There is one network in particular that’s very interested, but I don’t want to say anything specific until it’s a done deal.” Isaiah’s homophobic slur cost him big-time. Next time he’ll refrain from dissing his colleagues. He’ll be lucky to get a job.
