If you’re a celebrity, better mind your ways. We, the public, are watching.

Bobby Brown wins the lightweight title… for thinking
They haven’t forgotten Bobby Brown down in Florida. Brown will be arraigned July 18 on charges that he and two of his pals beat up a guy last April in Orlando. The guy, who barged into a conversation the loosely married Brown (Whitney Houston is the mother of one of his half dozen or so children) was having with a woman, ended up needing to have part of his ear reattached and assorted facial stitches.
