Hollywood's E! News has apologized for its much-criticized Golden Globes "fun fact" screen crawler about Michael J. Fox's diagnosis with Parkinson's disease. The blurb appeared on television screens when Fox was interviewed on the Globes red carpet during the cable network's pre-show coverage Sunday. Under the heading of "fun fact," the message said, "Michael J. Fox was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 1991." After fans criticized the message, E! News issued an apology to the Hollywood Reporter. "We regret the insensitive classification of Michael J. Fox's Parkinson's diagnosis during our Eonline [sic] live stream," the statement said. "We understand the serious nature of the disease and sincerely apologize."

Los Angeles prosecutors said Monday Nadya Suleman, who became known as Octomom after giving birth to octuplets, lied on her welfare application. The Los Angeles District Attorney's Office said Suleman, 38, was recently charged with one count of aid by misrepresentation and two counts of perjury by false application for aid. She allegedly didn't disclose nearly $30,000 in earnings when she applied for welfare last year, the Los Angeles Times reported. Suleman, an unemployed single mother with six other children, could receive years in prison if convicted, the newspaper said. She is to be arraigned Friday. Prosecutors are expected to request her bail be set at $25,000, the Times said.
