• While You Were Sleeping: Mel Gibson Is In Trouble Now

  Everyone's saying Obama brought down the house at the "nerd prom," aka the White House Correspondents Dinner, but really, it was Wanda Sykes who killed.

• Ashton vs CNN: It is Broughten

  We at Scanner make no claims of being mature. But Ashton Kutcher makes us feel downright dignified by comparison, what with Punk'd, the throwing of bottles at construction workers near his house who woke baby up, and the general impression that he is one with the character he played on That '70s Show. His latest folly is challenging CNNs' breaking news account to a Twitter popularity contest. So now it's a race to 1 million followers, and what Ashton plans to do if he wins is straight out of your preteen Mischief Night. Read More...

• Divorced Couple in Custody Battle Over Dog Semen

  We've never had the desire  to get a pet with a significant other (okay, maybe once). It's much better going into the relationship knowing whose pet is whose so that when the inevitable split comes, we at least have our furry friends—who love us unconditionally—to cuddle up to. A not-so-wise couple that divorced seven years ago were back in court this week fighting over a dog. Sort-of. Read More...

• While You Were Sleeping: Britney's In Prison

  If you're going to bribe a cop, it's wise to aim higher than $17. One of our strange/secret crushes, Chelsea Clinton, has gotten engaged.  Great, another reason for Nascar fans to hate Obama...

• April Fools: The Prankster's Prankster

  He goofed on the Queen of England. He had the media following "Michael Jackson" and his bizarre antics for days. He Punk'd Ashton Kutcher and Bruce Willis. He violated Wal-Mart. And he proved Charles Manson is a better person than Angelina Jolie. John Hargrave is a man for all April Fool's Days... Read More...

• Paris Hilton Punks the Paparazzi

  Paris Hilton has had a spiritual awakening. She was seen in a trance, wandering the streets in her bra and panties and without her beloved chihuahua, Louis Safer, under her arm. She was escorted by a guy who looks way too much like a drugged-out Pat Moriata for our sanity. TMZ has the video (link after the jump), but the joke was on them... and the rest of the paparazzo...
