Can you serve nachos and wings in prison?

O.J. Simpson came close when he hosted…wait for it…a Super Bowl party in his 80 ft. cell at Lovelock Correctional Center, Nevada, where he’s serving a 33-year term for kidnapping and armed robbery.

The Juice, who actually has a television in his cell, according to the New York Post, threw a bash in honor of football’s biggest day for his fellow inmates. “If you have the money, you can buy a TV at the inmate store and put it in your cell,” Simpson’s friend Norman Pardo says. Pardo adds that while he may be vilified on the outside, Simpson is actually one of the most popular inmates at Lovelock. “He’s like the Godfather of the prison now,” Pardo says.

Pardo, interestingly, is the guy who was responsible for trying (and failing) to rehab O.J.’s image after his shocking acquittal for double homicide left him to be one of the most hated men on the planet. Maybe now he should focus on getting his client an endorsement deal for orange jumpsuits?

O.J. Simpson’s White Bronco Makes an Appearance at an Art Gallery

O.J. Simpson may be cooling his heels in the slammer, but his famous white Bronco has garnered a bit of its own celebrity, making a well-publicized appearance at an art show opening.

In front of a stone barn that’s been converted into a Greenwich, Connecticut art gallery by newsprint tycoon Peter Brant sits the infamous piece of American pop culture. The Ford Bronco, which carried Simpson during his 1994 getaway from police, had been rented for the opening party for artist Nate Lowman’s show.

As Lowman’s work is often about confronting American symbols of “depravity,” the ex-football icon’s getaway vehicle was the perfect attraction for an art show titled, “I Wanted to Be an Artist But All I Got Was This Lousy Career.”

Beyond what ever deep or ironic meaning comes from having the Bronco there, featuring the truck only proves that while O.J. Simpson is deemed a pariah, folks still can’t get enough of his infamy.

Kris Jenner Thinks She Could Have Stopped Nicole Brown Simpson’s Murder

In her new memoir, Kris Jenner gives new details on the moments leading up to the brutal murder of her best friend Nicole Brown Simpson.

Nicole, the ex-wife of football superstar-turned actor O.J. Simpson, was found brutally stabbed to death—along with her friend Ron Goldman—at her Los Angeles home on June 12,1994.

Jenner believes she could have saved her friend if she’d agreed to meet with her the morning of that fateful day. In the memoir Kris writes Nicole called her early on June 12th, saying: “Can you get over here…? I need to talk to you. It’s really important’.”

Being busy with her own children, Kris asked to put off their meeting until the next day. But Nicole was persistent. “‘That’s okay, can you meet me tomorrow for lunch? I really have to talk to you about something really, really important’.”

Jenner says it would be the “last time I would ever speak to Nicole.”

The next day she’d get the horrible news of her best friend’s murder.

But could she have really been able to stop it? Looking at what happened to Ron Goldman, Jenner should have been glad she didn’t meet with Nicole—at least for her kid’s sake.

O.J. Is Scared

I guess news of O.J. Simpson losing it in jail suggests that we’re supposed to start feeling some sympathy for him, but I don’t feel an ounce of it.

According to the National Enquirer, Simpson is terrified his cellmate is plotting to take revenge on him for his [alleged] role in murder of his ex-wife Nicole Simpson-Brown.

Insert your own Johnnie Cochran reference here.

Anyhow, according to the Enquirer, O.J. has told his people, “My cellmate is nuts. He’s a killer, and he hates me. He told me that he is in prison for murder and rape, and he hates my guts because I got away with murdering my ex-wife. He’s told me he is going to strangle me in my sleep the first chance he gets.”

Friends of the football player turned cellmate are concerned.

An insider says, “I think O.J. is finally losing it. If he has to stay in prison for a long time, he won’t make it.”

Well, he shouldn’t have fallen for that trap that laid for him last year.

Oh well, the only juice I cut for these days go by the names of Simply, Minute Maid, Tropicana, and “insert your brand of choice here.”

O.J. Simpson and Daughter Arnelle Go At It

Published by Carrie Blackshaw on Thursday, August 28, 2008 at 2:27 pm.

O.J. Simpson must have thought he was back on the football field when his daughter
Arnelle, 39, knocked him down during an argument on Sunday, according to reports.

The New York Daily News
reports:

Cops rushed to the Florida home of O.J. Simpson after his eldest daughter knocked
him to the ground in a brawl over his girlfriend Christie Prody, sources said.

“Arnelle had a fight with Christie over Christie’s behavior. That’s
what started the whole thing,” a source told the Daily News.

“Christie has some problems with drinking, and Arnelle got mad. O.J. said
‘Don’t talk to her like that,’ and Arnelle pushed him.”

The source said Arnelle, 39, called 911 in a fit of guilt after she toppled the
61-year-old on Sunday, giving him a minor head injury.

The police report does not mention O.J.’s fall, but the href="http://www.nationalenquirer.com">National Enquirer, which first reported
the row, quoted a source saying O.J. was “cut on the back of his head, blood
was coming out the side of his mouth and his lip was cut.”

The Enquirer said Arnelle was furious with O.J. for dishing out money to Prody,
32, while his high school sweetheart – Arnelle’s mom, Marguerite Whitley -
has to work at WalMart to make ends meet.
