Missing Japanese pop star Noriko Sakai has turned herself in to authorities.

The popular icon - famous for her girl-next-door image - disappeared after a small quantity of drugs was found in her apartment. Her 10-year-old son, who also went missing, was found safe and sound.

Her husband was arrested on Monday for alleged drug possession.

Masahisa Aizawa, president of Sakai's management company, Sun Music, said, "Noriko Sakai was arrested last night and we would like to offer an apology to all her fans for the trouble caused."

He added, "I would like her to reflect on what she has done and feel the weight of the crime she has committed. I would strongly urge her to seek rehabilitation."

We agree!

Keanu Reeves was snapped shopping at Bristol Farms in West Hollywood this weekend.

Looking hot!

But if it weren't for how neatly the shopping bags are arranged, he could be just another random homeless dude pushing around a cart!

Tara Reid is working!

And, no, we don't mean the streets!

Our favorite lukewarm mess has landed a role in Last Call, an indie comedy about cousins trying to run the family pub.

We wonder if Reid thinks Last Call is a horror flick?

Another reason that Paula Abdul finally quit American Idol?

According to reports, producers wouldn't foot the bills for her own hair and makeup people.

Really???

How Can A Professional Athlete Be So Out Of Shape?

Basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal was in Hermosa Beach on Sunday for a volleyball game against Olympic Gold medalist Misty May-Treanor.

As part of his upcoming reality TV show Shaq has vowed to walk two miles in a pink Speedo if he loses to May-Treanor!

We can't even begin to imagine what a sight that would be!!!

Maybe he should go on some rigorous diet before strutting around in a Speedo???

Tyra Banks was on the set of Gossip Girl on Friday channeling some sort of 20s flapper look, hogging the camera, and being generally TYRannical.

Girl can still clean up pretty well though!

Minus the crazy look in her eyes.
