Yesterday we learned that tennis legend Andre Agassi used crystal meth in the late 90′s, failed an ATP drug test, then lied to the ATP to avoid a tour suspension.  This according to excerpts from his upcoming book, ‘Open: An Autobiography.’

Today, we are just as shocked to find out that Agassi was sporting a fake mohawk-mullet toupee during that same time period according to ESPN’s Rick Reilly.

Why would a son admit how much he feared his Iranian father — feared him and hated him since the age of 7? And why — why! — would a man admit he wore perhaps the world’s only Mohawk toupee?

Agassi bucked against tennis like a horse with a two-sizes-too-small bit. But he could not escape it. And so his life became a kind of lie, from his shoelace groundstrokes to perhaps the world’s only fake Mohawk, a hairpiece that once came apart in the shower before the French Open. The day was saved by bobby pins.

My oh my! The world as seen through my childhood has now been rocked off its axis.  The ‘haired wonder’ was famous back in the day for his ‘Image is everything!’ commercials and obviously that was true for Andre (one of the only true things out of him back then).

Image is everything until two decades later you are exposed as the King of taped on mullets.

Who am I kidding? Is it really a surprise that a down on his luck, mullet man, from Las Vegas was doing crystal meth in 1997?  The more we learn, the more it all makes perfect sense.

Sportscasm: Can Andre Agassi Shut Up Now?

Kansas City Chiefs running back Larry Johnson has been suspended and banned from all team activities while NFL is investigating his shameful use of gay slur when he questioned coach Todd Haley’s football credentials in an exchange with one of his followers on his Twitter account (photo below) on Monday (October 26).

Larry has already apologized for the f-gay bomb, saying to “all the kids who view athletes as role models. I was not a good role model yesterday and hopefully I can become a better role model. We all make mistakes, and the challenge is to learn from them. I will do my best to learn from this one as I move toward becoming a better person, teammate, and member of the Kansas City Chiefs team and community.”

“I regret my actions. The words were used by me in frustration, and they were not appropriate,” he said through a spokesman. “I did not intend to offend anyone, but that is no excuse for what I said.”

Coach Haley refused to comment, saying, “I’m just not going to comment any further because there is some stuff going on.” Yep, Larry is in big trouble! We hope he gets the punishment he deserves (watch video below).

American Idol runner-up Adam Lambert appears with blue hair, a gloved hand and heavy makeup in the official cover art for his debut album ‘For Your Entertainment’. Yep, Glambert is back and not in a good way!

If Adam wanted to channel a glamorous 80s’ Drag Queen (and we know how much he loves to dress in drag!!), he succeeded. However, if he wanted to become a modern, appealing to all ages and genders type of artist, this album cover is a big, huge FAIL (not to mention it looks like a real basic Photoshop job!). Tell us what you really think about Adam’s album cover in the comments below.

Who Was Eliminated On Dancing With The Stars Week 6?? The first pair to be eliminated was Melissa Joan Hart and Mark Ballas, who failed to impress with their performance of the waltz and group mambo, getting the lowest amount of votes from the public. Then, the judges had to choose between Michael Irvin and Louie Vito for the second elimination and Louie Vito and his professional partner Chelsie Hightower were voted off the competition.

Melissa, whose performance this week was affected by a flu bug, was disappointed with the results last night (October 27) because she had made a special promise to her son. Melissa said, “I promised my three-year-old [son] I was going to be dancing to the song “Bare Necessities” [from Disney's The Jungle Book] next week, and that’s not going to happen, so that’s a bummer. But I get to go back home to them!”

Dancing With The Stars Scoreboard (Week 6):

• Joanna Krupa and Derek Hough: 36
• Mya and Dmitry Chaplin: 35

R&B singer Monica and the father of her two children rapper Rodney Hill Jr. aka Rocko star in a new reality series titled ‘Monica: Still Standing’, which follows Monica’s search for a hit single for her fifth US studio album while balancing her personal life. The show premiered on BET Tuesday (October 27).

Monica said, “It was very scary stepping into the type of situation that would expose me and my life. But I think that there are so many kids now that are aspiring to do exactly what I’ve done and I felt like that was worth me putting myself on the line so they would really understand what it’s like to try and juggle both a music career and personal life.”

Monica is preparing a big comeback with the album ‘Still Standing’ after overcoming the unexpected suicide of her boyfriend Jarvis “Knot” Weems, a local drug dealer and her childhood friend, who put a gun to his head and shot himself right in front of her eyes back in 2000. Monica and Rocko are officially engaged and have two beautiful sons, Rodney III and Romello.

A 43 year-old woman named Susan Finkelstein posted an ad on Craiglist in which she described herself as a “diehard Phillies fan — gorgeous tall buxom blonde — in desperate need of two World Series Tickets.” Susan was basically offering sex in exchange for World Series Tickets and she was ready to do absolutely everything to get them.

An undercover officer responded to the ad and met Susan, who offered to perform various sex acts in exchange for the tickets. The crazy Philadelphia Phillies fan was arrested and charged with prostitution, among other offenses, on Tuesday (October 27).

The competition hasn’t even started yet and there are already two casualties in the sixth season of ‘So You Think You Can Dance’ [SYTYCD Season 6 Top 20 Photos + Bios]: 19 year-old Billy Bell, due to an undisclosed illness, and 18 year-old Noelle Marsh.

Billy, a contemporary dancer who is rumored to have mononucleosis, is completely out of the game and has already been replaced by hip-hop dancer Brandon Dumlao. Noelle was given one week to try to recuperate from an ankle injury and if she doesn’t recover she will be replaced by the female dancer who gets eliminated this week.

A new tell-all book written by Ian Halperin promises to reveal the darkest secrets of the hottest Hollywood couple, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. The best kept secret is that the Brangelina pseudo-marriage is a fraud, as in it’s not as perfect as they wants us to believe it is because they are really just human (GASP!).

‘Brangelina Exposed‘ promises to explain how the famous couple “have successfully manipulated the public into believing a glamorous fairytale that bears little resemblance to the reality of the pair’s life together,” according to a press release.

No marriage is a fairytale so since when is this piece of information a dark secret!?! The book also unveils new details of Angelina’s relationship with her father Jon Voight, her struggle with heroin use, suicidal impulses and sexual exploits, which is not exactly breaking news. We could write a book with numerous things we find with a simple Google search on Angie’s dark past.

And tell-all wouldn’t be a tell-all if it didn’t include the tension between the two and how they are headed straight to a nasty break up… sometime soon… in the future. “Jolie’s personal lifestyle choices are not only affecting her growing family but causing serious and potentially irreparable tensions with Pitt.”

I seriously wouldn’t waste money on this but ‘Brangelina Exposed’ is out December 1, 2009, in a bookstore near you.

Former tennis champion Andre Agassi admits to have used crystal meth while he was playing back in 1997 in his new autobiography titled “Open: An Autobiography” to be released on November 9.

Sport Illustrated writer Richard Deitsch broke the news on Twitter [@richarddeitsch: Book excerpt from Andre Agassi in the forthcoming SI: He admits to taking crystal meth during his career.] but the tweet was later deleted.

Paul Bogaards, director of media relations at Knopf, a division of Random House, confirmed the news: “Those excerpts contain revelations about Andre’s use of crystal meth when he was a tennis player”. The official publisher’s description of the book does not mention Agassi’s struggle with drugs.

Agassi did not win any major tournament in 1997 but he won the Olympic gold medal in the 1996 Atlanta Games and the French Open and US Open in 1999. The 39 year-old is currently married to former Grand Slam champion Steffi Graf with whom he has two children.

UPDATE: Released Book Excerpt Offers More Details:

“Slim is stressed too … He says, You want to get high with me? On what? Gack. What the hell’s gack? Crystal meth,” Agassi recounts in the book. “Why do they call it gack? Because that’s the sound you make when you’re high … Make you feel like Superman, dude.

“As if they’re coming out of someone else’s mouth, I hear these words: You know what? F*** it. Yeah. Let’s get high.

“Slim dumps a small pile of powder on the coffee table. He cuts it, snorts it. He cuts it again. I snort some. I ease back on the couch and consider the Rubicon I’ve just crossed.

“There is a moment of regret, followed by vast sadness. Then comes a tidal wave of euphoria that sweeps away every negative thought in my head. I’ve never felt so alive, so hopeful — and I’ve never felt such energy,” Agassi says.

“I’m seized by a desperate desire to clean. I go tearing around my house, cleaning it from top to bottom. I dust the furniture. I scour the tub. I make the beds.”

Agassi goes on in the book to tell of how he failed a drug test in 1997 and lied in a letter he wrote to the ATP stating that he mistakenly ingested the drug from a spiked soda.  The ATP discharged the positive test and the incident never came to light until now.

Andre must be desperate to sell books or need some cash because he should have kept this unknown confession buried back in 1997.
