Chidi Benjamin Uzomah Jr, 26, plead no contest to stalking Ryan Seacrest. The judge rejected the Uzomah’s request for probation and sentenced him to two years in state prison and also ordered him to stay at least 500 feet away from Seacrest and his workplace for 10 years.

Nicollette Sheridan Files Lawsuit Over Being Fired From Desperate Housewives

Nicollette Sheridan filed a lawsuit on Monday in Los Angeles Superior court, alleging that the show’s creator (Marc Cherry) hit her in the face and when she complained to the execs at ABC, she was fired. She is suing for $20 million for loss of future earnings. Her contract gave her earnings $175,000 an episode which could go up to $250,000 in later years.

In the suit papers, Sheridan alleges assault, battery, gender violence and wrongful termination. She writes that Cherry created a hostile work environment by “behaving in an extremely abusive and aggressive manner.”

She claims that on September 24, 2008, Cherry struck her in the face and the head. Sheridan then yelled, “You just hit me in the head. That is not okay. THAT IS NOT OKAY!” Cherry allegedly tried to beg forgiveness but Sheridan went to the ABC executives to complain about his abusive behavior. Then, in February, 2009 she was informed that her character would be written off the show. She claims in her suit that, “The decision to kill off Sheridan’s character demonstrates that Cherry and ABC intended to and did retaliate against Sheridan for her complaints about Cherry.”
