May 3, 2006
Rapper T.I. lost a member of his entourage Wednesday morning when his personal assistant, 26-year-old Philant Johnson, was shot to death while riding in a car with the group after they left a Cincinnati nightclub.
Witnesses told Cincinatti's The Enquirer that a fight broke out at the Club Ritz when a large group of men became angry that someone was throwing money from the stage during a rapper's performance.
"It was supposed to be for the ladies, but [the money] was hitting the guys in the face," a witness said, "and they were like, 'We got money, so why are you throwing money at us?'"

Tom Cruise's decision to import an at-home sonogram machine to check out baby Suri's every move before she made her worldly debut may have seemed a little wacky to people. But one California lawmaker thinks it was a downright dangerous maneuver.
Democratic Assemblyman Ted Lieu has introduced a bill that would prohibit the selling, leasing or distributing of an ultrasound machine by California manufacturers to anyone other than licensed medical professionals. The state assembly is scheduled to debate the bill Thursday.
"If someone sees Tom Cruise buy one, they think this is the thing to do," Lieu said.
