Seriously?! Wasn't once enough!

By now, we're sure you're familiar with the supremely stoopid SWATTING pranks that have plagued the Los Angeles Police Department and celebrities alike for the past year or so, which involves someone calling 9-1-1 to claim that the famous face in question is being attacked in their home, only for authorities to arrive and find nothing but a false alarm!

Unfortunately, this has happened to Miley Cyrus back in August…and now, she's been victimized once again!

According to sources, police

YIKES!

Cops arrived at Ashton Kutcher’s Los Angeles home last week for what turned out to be yet another false alarm!

Though swatters had been involved in the first occurrence, it seems that wasn’t the case this time. A friend staying at the actor’s home thought someone was trying to break in! He pressed the panic button on the home’s alarm system around 5:30am after hearing an unnerving noise.

Thankfully, after a thorough search, cops found no signs of an invasion.

Phew! That's good to hear!

Keep our boy safe, Mila Kunis! In your loving embrace! (Lucky…)

Stephen King may be known best for his truly terrifying stories, but something tells us this is NOT the way he had hoped to scare anyone EVER!

A TV adaptation of the author's sci-fi/horror tale Under the Dome is currently in production in Wilmington, North Carolina, and apparently, the CBS show's crew neglected to inform an elementary school a few hundred yards away from their set that they were filming a scene that involved a fake gunfight!

So when shots rang out, the

It's official, folks!

No celebrity is safe from becoming the victim of an all-too-popular SWATTING prank!

Not Clint Eastwood, and now…DEFINITELY not Paris Hilton!

The heiress' home became the location of alleged crime scene yesterday, after law enforcement received an anonymous phone call claiming that someone had broken in!

Thankfully, this time around, the prankster didn't claim that anyone was armed or shots were being fired, but the call warranted enough concern for multiple LAPD officers to investigate Paris' pad and discover that there were NO signs of a break-in!

As for Miz Hilton herself?

Luckily, cops

Alert! Alert! La Lohan has broken through the perimeter! Sound the alarm!!! She's Shawshanking!!! SHE'S SHAWSHANKING!!!

Oh, wait. False alarm!

On Tuesday afternoon, police were dispatched to the home of Lindsay Lohan when her ankle monitor went off, signaling a possible escape from the starlet. When officials arrived, they found LiLo watching her 3-D TV on her rooftop, while simultaneously browsing scripts and posing for photographs for the tabloids.

Wow! She's learned to multi-task under house arrest! Awesome!

Anyway, according to officials, Lindsay did nothing wrong. There was no evidence to suggest Lindsay left the confines of her humble abode, so it was more likely that the ankle monitor simply malfunctioned.

Damn! Great! She's free to stew in her Venice digs for another day! (Just how many more days is that exactly? )

Phew!

It was a close call for Mariah Carey and hubby Nick Cannon Sunday morning.

After feeling contractions in the middle of the night, Mariah rushed to the hospital with anticipation that she was about to give birth to her twins! And not only that, but on the same day as her wedding anniversary.

Aw, that would have been such a sweet anniversary gift for the couple.

It was just a false alarm though as the "dem babies" weren't ready to come out just yet.

The star tweeted:

So #dembabies really wanted 2 celebrate w/us/share the anniversary! I started having contractions last night..went 2 the hospital-

Finally they said I could come home after they got it under control but..They almost came on 3/27- happy anniversary in deed!!! We have a few more weeks 2 go but- wow!!!: ) #soreadyallready!

Seems like the Carey/Cannon twins are just as divalicious as their momma.

We're so eager to meet those little nuggets. We'll just have to wait a couple more weeks!
