Kinda like guys who make gay porn but claim to be straight.

I'm thinking that would be a selling tool to help excite the fantasies of queers wanting to boink straights.

News I would not be shocked by: American Idol show related to another contestant suicide. Keith Olberman found in men’s stall with teen boy. President Obama staffer comes clean about plot to frame political enemy with felony. Chris Matthews snapped on beach wearing speedos. Nancy Pelosi caught diverting funds through laundered fronts. Harry Reid arrested for driving on Vegas strip under influence of perscription drugs. Barney Frank donates to NAMBLA. Joe Biden overheard saying that Obama is “really the only colored fella I’ve ever known”. Ken Salazar sworn in after nuclear attack on DC calls incident “a wake up call”.

Oh! And “Andy Dick arrested for felony sexual assault”.

I remember reading an article a couple of years ago maybe titled “Hillary’s Sin Taxes” or close to that. In the article it was mentioned by a couple of “actors” who have to pull double the work to keep up with the females. I have heard about the pay differences in male/female porn actors for ages.

I continue to lament the public indecency situation Paul had. He has always shown an incredible talent and had a great show for children.

Unfortunately, he did something in a semi-public place that, if done, should only be in private.

Andy is just a Dick.

Sounds like he got grabby. He's done it before.

Yep. He was arrested for it here in Columbus a few years ago. Got it knocked down to disorderly conduct.

Give the man a chance, many just don’t realize how HARD it is to go through life with a name like DICK.

Whatever his sexuality, this guy is a curse:

In 2005, Dick stirred controversy in Edmonton, Alberta, at Yuk Yuk's comedy club when he dropped his pants and exposed his genitals to the audience. Amid the uproar, he was ushered off the stage and the second night was canceled.

On December 2, 2006, he angered an audience at the Improv Club in Los Angeles by shouting "You're all a bunch of niggers!" following an improvised set with comedian Ian Bagg. This was a direct reference to Michael Richards' use of the same epithet to insult hecklers two weeks earlier. He later issued an apology through his publicist:

“ I chose to make a joke about a subject that is not funny, in an attempt to make light of a serious subject. I have offended a lot of people, and I am sorry for my insensitivity. I wish to apologize to Ian, to the club and its patrons and to anyone who was hurt or offended by my remark. ”

On February 2, 2007, he was forcibly removed during an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, after repeatedly touching guest Ivanka Trump. After Dick rubbed Trump's legs and touched her hair, Jimmy Kimmel begged him to behave himself. When Dick asked Trump to "give him a big, fat, sloppy kiss right on the lips" and grabbed her arm, Kimmel called in two security guards. Kimmel and the guards dragged Dick off-set. On May 2, 2007, he made another appearance on Kimmel, which began by showing the clip of him being dragged out of his previous appearance, and then wheeled out, Hannibal Lecter-style, on a dolly. He exchanged some dialogue and playful touching with Kimmel's other guest, Danica Patrick.

On July 17, 2007, at the Laugh Factory comedy club in Los Angeles, Dick was in an altercation with his former NewsRadio costar Jon Lovitz, who claimed that, a year earlier, Dick had approached him at a restaurant and said, "I put the Phil Hartman hex on you; you're the next one to die," and demanded an apology from Dick. Lovitz has alleged that Dick gave cocaine to Hartman's wife Brynn, a recovering addict, causing her to relapse and five months later, kill her husband in their home before committing suicide. Upon joining the cast of NewsRadio as Hartman's replacement, Lovitz told Dick, "I wouldn't be here now if you hadn't given Brynn that cocaine." Additionally, as reported in TV Guide, Dick was the last person in the company of Suddenly Susan star David Strickland in Las Vegas on March 22, 1999. Strickland was scheduled to report to his drug rehab probation officer on a routine check-in within a day of his death.

In August 2007, Dick was cited by Columbus, Ohio police for urinating on a sidewalk and a building. During his weekend in Columbus he was reported to be intoxicated during his standup performance and groped patrons at a comedy club. Upon his return to Los Angeles, Los Angeles County deputies were called to his residence to respond to a complaint that Dick was throwing beer bottles into his neighbor's yard. He also slapped a reporter in the face outside a Los Angeles nightclub.

On July 16, 2008, Dick was arrested in Murietta, California on suspicion of drug possession and sexual battery. He was arrested for allegedly grabbing and pulling down a 17 year old girl's tank-top and brassiere down, thereby exposing her breasts. During a search of his person, police reported finding a small quantity of marijuana and one Xanax tablet (for which Dick did not have a prescription) in his front pants pocket.

I know a couple of guys (names withheld in order to protect the guilty) who ran into Andy in the men’s room at the Viper Room in LA. The three of them were at the urinals, I gather he was talking to one guy, being a douche, and the other guy surreptitiously watered Andy’s pants leg.

If he had been born with the timing of Don Rickles and the cherubic-monster rubber face he might have gotten away with it.

There are plenty of politicians, actors/actresses, and entertainers who have done worse and they are still gainfully employed.

So true.

Dick's punishment might end up to have him join Tiger Woods in that sexual addiction camp in Mississippi..

Re the photo -— hey! I love Pauly Shore!!!

Actually Pauly’s a good guy — met him once here in L.A. — he’s joked about and can be lewd and crude but he’s straight, unlike Andy Dick, and has spent years caring for his ailing mother, Mitzi Shore, former owner of the Comedy Store in Hollywood.

I’m not young but I thought Son-In-Law was hilarious, though certainly silly.

Roseanne on the other hand, has only gotten worse over time!!!

I’ve heard people in ‘the business’ say Andy Dick can be really funny, so I guess that’s how he keeps on going, but those arrests are NOT good.
