Lawrence Taylor

NFL Hall of Famer and Dancing with the Stars alum Lawrence Taylor was arrested Thursday morning on suspicion of rape involving a 16-year-old runaway.

The former New York Giants linebacker was placed under arrest at the Holidome Hotel in Montebello, N.Y. An arraignment is scheduled at 4/3c and formal charges will be filed upon the completion of the investigation, a spokesman for the Ramapo, N.Y., Police Department said.

Taylor’s attorney, Kenneth Gribetz, told The Associated Press that he is “confident” Taylor, 51, will be exonerated.

The Giants and NFL had no comment.

Taylor, who’s had multiple run-ins with the law, led the Giants to Super Bowl titles in 1987 and 1991. A 10-time Pro Bowler, he was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1999.

He competed on Season 8 of Dancing with Edyta Sliwinska. They finished in seventh place.

Corey Feldman

Corey Haim was in “the best frame of mind” in his life, Corey Feldman said on Larry King Live Wednesday night, adding that people shouldn’t jump to conclusions that his close friend died of a drug overdose.

Corey Haim dead at 38

Haim, who had struggled with addiction for many years, was taken to a Burbank hospital where he was pronounced dead Wednesday morning.

“They need to stop saying it’s a drug overdose,” he told Larry King. “Until the coroner’s report comes out … nobody knows.”

Haim was also dealing with his mother’s cancer battle, but Feldman said in the weeks before his death he was still positive. “Most recently he’s been, honestly, in the best frame of mind that he’s ever been in in the past year,” continued Feldman.

“He was fine. I mean, he was actually giving me some advice about something that I was upset about and he was being very positive. I had just been getting him out more recently. I had taken him up to the Playboy Mansion fairly recently for the Super Bowl party.”

Still, a source familiar with the case told TVGuide.com earlier Wednesday that Haim died of an apparent overdose.

Feldman acknowledged on King’s CNN program that Haim battled addiction for many years.

“I know it better than anybody, because I’ve been the guy stuffing charcoal down his throat when he was OD’ing. I’ve been the guy trying to make him, you know, stand up, or — or say a complete sentence. I’ve been there with him through it many, many times, ” Feldman said. “And it — it’s happened very badly, and very intensely through the years on many occasions.”

Feldman said he was still trying to “digest” Haim’s death. “I don’t think I’ve even come close yet.”

Jersey Shore

While Jersey Shore was MTV’s recent breakout show, (its finale scored a record-breaking 4.8 million viewers), Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino certainly was the series’ breakout star. He made a name for himself, literally, from the first episode with his third-person talk, “creeping” on housemate Sammi, and coining his daily routine — “GTL” (gym, tan, laundry). TVGuide.com spoke with him about how the show, and his body, is all real, what’s next for him, and more.

A guide to our favorite Jersey Shore slang

TVGuide.com: How real was Jersey Shore?
Mike “The Situation” Sorrentino: Nothing was planned; everything is real. Everybody’s friends on the show and that’s why it’s so real. We’re actually close in real life, everybody has their own relationships, who likes who and who really likes somebody, and that’s why it’s so good on the show.

TVGuide.com: We saw a lot of partying, but did you guys ever stay in?
Situation: I’m sure you saw we went to the bowling alley, there’s a time when we went to a movie theater. There are times to go out and then there’s time to stay in. You have to pick and choose your battles. You can’t go out every night because if you do go out every night you’re not really going to look that good — it takes a little toll on you.

TVGuide.com: Speaking of a toll on your body, do you use steroids?
Situation: No way. I’m 100 percent natural. I just have very good genetics. I’ve had a six-pack since I was little, and even if I miss the gym, the six-pack is always there.

Fist Pump!: Jersey Shore returning for Season 2

TVGuide.com: Were you surprised at how tense the Season 1 reunion was?
Situation: No, I wasn’t surprised at all. Me and [Ronnie] are friends but at the same time Sam is his girl. There’s always going to be tension there between me and him, I mean we are friends first, but that’s my good friend and that’s his girl, and I had hooked up with his girl first.

TVGuide.com: Sammi walked out on the reunion, so are she and him really over?
Situation: I believe they broke up that day of the reunion. I think they got back together but then I think they recently broke up again. That’s really none of my business, their relationship; my business is The Situation.

TVGuide.com: So how’s The Situation’s love life?
Situation: Right now I take life moment by moment, I’m not really too worried about pointing out which girl. I’m focused on my career and if I see something that I like, I’ll grab it up.

The Situation “very excited” for Season 2 of Jersey Shore

TVGuide.com: What’s next for you?
Situation: There are so many things coming out for myself. I’m going to be at the Super Bowl and that’s pretty big for me. There’s a lot of things in the works for me; you never know, you might see a workout video, you might see a book. Right now I’m just taking over the reality world on this first season so I guess you could say I’m like the reality king. After that, maybe one or two more seasons max — but once you do something like that and you’re on top, you do want to move on and graduate to the next level. I’d like to do some acting and maybe even some TV or film but we’ll see.
