Snooki Goes Free as Chelsea Gets Ready for Her Big Day
Snooki avoids spending the night in jail. Levi Johnston's ex-girlfriend denies he knocked her up. Casey Affleck has more trouble on his hands. Oh, and there's a big wedding happening today. It's time for a delayed installment of Saturday gossip.
- Snooki is a free woman and has returned to frolicking on the beaches of New Jersey today, thank God. After she was arrested yesterday afternoon for disorderly conduct, she was taken to "police headquarters" in guido paradise Seaside Heights and released a little while later with a summons. (Although JWOWW had generously promised to bail Snooki out, it turns out that wasn't necessary.) If you see Snooki oiled up on the beach today, buy her a congratulatory cocktail or two.

A few days ago, the National Enquirer reported that Levi Johnston has been cavorting with his his ex-girlfriend, Lanesia Garcia, and recently got her pregnant. And yesterday, it came out that fiancee Bristol Palin was so infuriated by the news, she was only communicating with Levi by text message. Garcia now says that Levi isn't the father and she has no idea how that rumor started: "We haven't hung out at all since 8th or 9th grade when we broke up." Will Bristol believe her? Will the Levi-Bristol marriage take place as planned? Find out in the next installment of the Wasilla Hillbillies. [Us]

Mel Gibson's ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva has responded to Gibson's accusation that she tried to extort him by threatening to release those audio recordings of Gibson going crazy.

- Jamie-Lynn Sigler and her boyfriend of three months, NFL quarterback Mark Sanchez, have parted ways. This is because Sanchez is 23 and "wants to play the field," whereas Meadow Soprano is all grown up (she's 29 already?!) and "is looking for a more mature and stable relationship." Until that happens, she can always count on Turtle from Entourage for late-night booty calls. [Page Six, L&S]

These two are hurting and could use some companionship. [Popeater]

A witness said his belly was hanging out of a gray T-shirt while he filled up his car outside a shopping center in DC." Wait, he's still driving a Mercedes? [Page Six]
