DMX

Rapper DMX has been indicted on felony charges by a grand jury in Arizona for allegedly trying to get out of paying a hospital bill.

Maricopa County Attorney Andrew Thomas says the 37-year-old rapper, whose real name is Earl Simmons, has been charged with one count of theft and one count of taking someone else’s identity.

Authorities say Simmons went to Scottsdale’s Mayo Clinic in April, said his name was “Troy Jones,” and received care with the intent of not paying the bill.

Simmons was arrested Saturday at a Phoenix mall.

A spokesman for the Maricopa County Sheriff’s office says the rapper was released from jail Sunday night.

Madame Tussauds in London unveiled a waxwork of Amy Winehouse yesterday complete with her signature beehive, black eyeliner and a bright yellow minidress.

Winehouse’s hair and 5-inch black heels make the model nearly 6 feet tall. The wax Winehouse’s dress resembles one that the singer wore to the BRIT music awards in 2007, when she won best female solo artist.

Her sailor-inspired tattoos are lovingly reproduced, including a lightning bolt, horseshoe and pinup girls on her arms.

This is the first time Tussauds has made a model of Winehouse, which joins other celebrities’ including likenesses of Madonna and Justin Timberlake.
