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?

We just KNEW sweet lil’ Miranda Lambert wouldn’t try to get physical with anyone.

Unless it’s her hottie hubby, Blake Shelton. Wink wink!

We’re sooo happy to hear she’s no longer being investigated for allegedly threatening to punch a store owner in Tishomingo, Oklahoma.

Officials have checked out Melanie Peden’s cray cray story about Miranda verbally assaulting her and threatening to hit her, and it looks like it was a big, fat lie.

An investigator on the case commented:

Guess it isn't so fake after all!

Marc Jacobs jackets that are sold at Century 21 actually use dog hair, not the faux fur the company claims to use!

Despite the labels that claim the fur is fake, a independent probe from the Humane Society has found that the jackets material actually consists of the hair of Chinese raccoon dogs.

Here's what a representative of the Humane Society's Fur Free Campaign said:

“Anybody who doesn’t want to buy animal fur should be very angry that a product that they’re trying to avoid is being misrepresented as a product they may want to buy."

A video has been released from the Humane Society where they identify jackets that are labeled to contain "fake fur," but actually consist of the chinese dog hair material.

Ch-ch-check it out by watching it (above) !!!

Thoughtless, unnecessary violence has once again taken a life.

A 27-year-old man passed away last night in Philadelphia after being the victim of a drive-by shooting, with another left another injured, as they stood in a crowd that had gathered around French Montana's tour bus.

According to reports from authorities, the rapper and his entourage pulled into a local hotel following his performance that evening, and as fans gathered outside of his ride to catch a glimpse of the celebrity, a passing car opened fire on the group, leaving one victim dead after being shot in the abdomen and the other injured from a bullet wound in the shoulder.

If you can't do the time - then don't do the crime!

Two former Butterball workers at a North Carolina turkey facility have been convicted of animal cruelty following a 2011 undercover investigation by Mercy For Animals.

They captured graphic footage of workers mistreating the birds which you can see, at your own discretion, (above).

Here's what the statement from the Mercy For Animals said:

"This latest round of criminal convictions against Butterball workers demonstrates that an ongoing pattern of animal cruelty and neglect was allowed to flourish at this inhumane factory farm. As the convictions pile up, it leaves no doubt that turkeys raised and killed by Butterball are routinely crowded into filthy warehouses, neglected to die from infected, bloody wounds, or thrown, kicked, and beaten by factory farm workers."

We're so glad that justice is finally being served.

Animal cruelty should not and will not be tolerated!

REALLY?!

It's bad enough that these ridiculously ridiculous pranks are still happening, but now they even have to involve DIRTY HARRY?!

Aw, heeeell NO!

Sadly, it seems that Clint Eastwood is indeed the latest victim of the ever-increasing "swatting" pranks, which, as we've reported, involve prank 911 calls alleging that celebrities like Justin Bieber, Tom Cruise and Miley Cyrus are being attacked in their homes with assault weapons!

According to law enforcement sources, they received a tip that multiple armed males had invaded the iconic actor and director's home and that someone was shot, but when officers arrived at the scene, all was well and they weren't even certain that anyone was home at the time of the prank!

Ugh! Just SO beyond foolish!

Especially since the LAPD
