Devin Ebanks, who is a forward player for the Los Angeles Lakers basketball team, was arrested for a DUI earlier this morning. Records stated that Ebanks, 23 years old, was pulled over in Los Angeles around 3 AM near the Hollywood area. He was apprehended by California police officers and taken to jail, where he was later let out after paying a $5,000 bail. Posts from his Twitter account claimed that he was celebrating a woman’s birthday at the Roxbury night club. Ebanks’ next scheduled court date is December 7, according to booking records.

Sources stated that “it was Ebanks’ second incident with law enforcement in a little more than a year.” Last December, a woman accused Ebanks of sexually assaulting her but prosecutors refused to file charges against him. He originally joined the LA Lakers right out of West Virginia and resigned with them last August for one more year for $1.4 million.

X Factor contestant, Lexa Berman, was arrested this past weekend for a DUI in Delray Beach, Florida. She might lose the privilege of participating in the next round of X Factor, where contestants are given the opportunity to compete for a recording contract. Berman, who is 22 years old, had recently “auditioned for the X Factor talent show in front of Britney Spears and Simon Cowell in San Francisco.”

Delray Beach police officials stated that Berman was driving through the intersection of Linton and South Ocean boulevards when she “first collided with another car…then crashed into some bushes and a block wall just down the road.” When police officials approached her, Berman confessed she was coming from a show in West Palm Beach, where she had two drinks. An officer administered a field sobriety test, during which she “piped up” and laughed, “Can’t even do that sober.” Officials stated that she failed to balance while walking heel to toe and fell into the bushes.

Berman’s blood alcohol test determined that she had a BAC of .288%, which is almost three times the legal limit in the state of Florida. She was arrested and taken into Palm Beach County Jail, where she was later bailed out. No other information was disclosed.

Nadya Suleman, better known as TV personality Octomom, is headed to a rehabilitation center after her father publicly expressed concern over her drinking habits. However, it turns out that Suleman has checked into the Chapman House Drug Rehabilitation Center for a Xanax addiction. Before admitting herself to the treatment facility, Suleman’s father left a voicemail with Gina Bryson, a Rossmoor mother who had watched his daughter’s children. In the voicemail, Suleman’s father can be heard saying, “Gina, this is me, Ed. I’m worried about Nadya. She’s not answering the phone. And I really worry about her. Sometimes she starts drinking vodka, whatever, so maybe she should not be driving.”

Apparently, Suleman was originally prescribed Xanax to treat anxiety and stress that she attributes to being a single mom on welfare. Suleman has struggled with alcohol abuse in the past and even admitted once that she would be unable to drive her kids home after having too much to drink at a party. Bryson has stated that she often saw the Octomom intoxicated after indulging in her favorite drinks, vodka and cranberry juice as well as wine. When Bryson, as well as several other nannies, came forward to authorities expressing concern over the well-being of her 14 children, Suleman claimed they were all nothing but gold diggers. Now, while the TV Octomom spends a few weeks in the rehab center, her kids will be watched by 3 seperate nannies and 2 of her friends.
