Linda Hogan and her 19-year-old boyfriend Charlie Hill at LAX last year
In a statement released late yesterday, Linda Hogan's rep fired back at Hulk Hogan over those
comments he made in
Rolling Stone about "understanding" why O.J. Simpson murdered his ex-wife:
"Hulk’s serial cheating destroyed our marriage, our family and our future. Sadly, his recent comments remind us that his definition of fair is much different than what the law dictates," states Linda Hogan. "We have always maintained that the fear that Linda has had to live with comes from the rage and instability much too often associated with pro wrestlers," states Linda’s rep Gary Smith. Linda and her family are taking these recent homicidal comments seriously. Linda's attorney Ray Rafool is weighting all options necessary to protect his client.
"Rage and instability" -- oh c'mon, that's a cheap shot against pro wrestling. Out of the ten most popular wrestlers in the WWE, how many have killed their families in the past few years?
One, maybe two? That's less than a 20% chance Linda has of being murdered. Seems like pretty good odds to me. Linda needs to stop being such a drama queen.
The Hulk showing off his ringless finger in Miami (3/17)
I've never been married, so I don't have much experience with divorce trials, but I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to imply that you want to murder your ex-wife. Judges tend to frown on that sort of thing. I know,
bunch of prudes. From the
New York Post:
Hulk Hogan is sounding homicidal over the way his wife Linda dumped him, forced him out of his $18 million mansion, allegedly started spending his money at the rate of $40,000 a month and dating "some shaggy-haired pool boy 30 years her junior," Rolling Stone reports. "I could have turned everything into a crime scene, like OJ, cutting everybody's throat," he told the magazine. "You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can't go to anymore, you're driving through downtown Clearwater and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife . . . I totally understand OJ. I get it."
If I know one thing about show business, it's that comparing yourself to a vicious murderer is a surefire path to stardom. I mean, just look at what's happened to Zac Efron since he compared himself to the Green River Killer in that interview he did with
Teen Beat last year. His career is taking off!
Hulk Hogan at Tampa International Airport (3/240
Hulk Hogan is finally addressing his daughter Brooke's rather "
interesting" performance last weekend in Miami, a performance he seemingly enjoyed. He told
Life & Style:
"I try to make it to as many of Brooke’s performances as possible. I support her and everything that she does. I’d watch my daughter perform no matter what she does."
No matter what she does? It's official: The Hulk has reached DEFCON 5 levels of dad creepiness . . . or as I call it: "The Joe Simpson Level." Maybe the two can become friends and swap strategies about how best to "accidentally" enter their daughters' rooms when they're changing. "Jessica usually gets pretty pissed when I walk into her bedroom and get a glimpse of those huge suckers. The trick is to give her a ball of yarn to play with and then she forgets the whole thing ever happened."
Brooke Hogan got hackedSo I guess Brooke Hogan had her sidekick hacked by one of the folks over at Digital Gangster. Her cell number is (786)329-2262. Called it, it's been disconnected. The Hulk's number is (727)215-4037. Called it, it rings and leads to his voicemail greeting. You can definitely tell it's him. Nick's cell is (305)395-2267. The number forwards to a taxi service which I thought was pretty appropriate. More from this later today . . .

Brooke and Hulk Hogan at the Calle Ocho Festival in Miami (3/15)
Say what you will about the Hulk being at the Calle Ocho Festival in Miami yesterday -- on the one hand he's trying to support his daughter and her career; on the other it's a little creepy since her entire act consisted of her gyrating around a stripper pole -- but I think we can all agree on one thing: He shouldn't have been throwing dollar bills.
Brooke and Hulk Hogan in South Beach (1/20)
Being famous isn't all it's cracked up to be. Sometimes you just want to drive your mini Cadillac down the busiest street in South Beach without everyone pointing and gawking at you like you're some kind of circus animal. Geesh, just leave the Hogans alone already.
