Disgraced Olympic runner Marion Jones has been sentenced to six months in prison for lying about her steroid use and for check-writing fraud.
In October, she was stripped of the three gold medals and two bronze that she won for sprints at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney.
She long decried use of the drugs, at one point saying:
“Nobody has ever said anything about Marion Jones ever using performance-enhancing drugs and they never will,” Jones said. “I’m for a drug-free sport and always will be.”
But after realizing she could go to jail for lying about it, she changed her tune to ask for a lighter sentence, pleading that her two young children needed her. The judge didn’t have any of it. Her sentence begins in March.
The original “supermodel,” Janice Dickinson, is telling stories about her old beau, Sylvester Stallone. She told Fox News’s Greg Gutfeld that back in the ’90s:
…not only did she see Stallone “juice” up with steroids but that he injected her with them as well.
“He juiced me,” Dickinson said. “I’d wake up and my arm was as big as Popeye — steroids, testosterone, all that stuff that people say [mimicking Stallone voice], ‘Hey, it’s not that good ’cause you get really big, you know what I mean?’”
Yeah, don’t you hate it when people inject various body parts full of chemicals to make them look bigger?

P.S. Holy acromelagy, I just realized who she looks like:
The late great Rondo Hatton!
Katie Holmes may be running in the prestigious Boston Marathon this April, regardless of the fact she didn’t qualify for it.
She ran the New York City marathon in November in 5 hours 30 minutes — which, at an average of 4.7 mph, isn’t exactly breaking the sound barrier.
But the Boston Marathon is a badge of honor among competitive runners, and not just anyone can run it. In order to qualify, a woman in her age group would have had to have finished a previous race in under 3 hours 40 minutes.
So why the special treatment? According to a race insider, she received a “charity entrance.” But after the NYC race, husband Tom Cruise said he was proud that his wife had done it all on her own, saying:
“She was impressive. She trained just a little over two months.”
Sounds like Tom pulled some strings so that we’d all be as impressed with her as he thinks we should be.
