This Week's Top 50: Beyonce falls; Lohan drives.
July 30, 2007

Beyonce tripped and fell down 12 steps onstage at an Orlando concert last week, propelling her to the top of the Lycos 50. The fall alone may not have inspired so much search activity, but an embarassed Beyonce pleaded with her fans not to post any videos of the fall on the Internet. This, of course, only inspired fans to post more videos to the Internet much more quickly than they otherwise would have. (Honestly, wasn't the Internet invented for the sole purpose of embarassing celebrities?) YouTube has since yanked the clips from their site, claiming that they violated copyright. For those of you who are crestfallen at the idea that you may have missed your chance to see Beyonce topple like a domino, don't worry! The video is still out there. And as everyone knows, falling down is always funny. When its a famous and self-important pop star, its even funnier.

As for our old favorite, Lindsay Lohan, she was not out of rehab (or "rehab," given that I don't think she did any rehabilitating) for a couple of weeks when she was arrested yet again. The star of "I Know Who Killed Me" allegedly commandeered an SUV and drunkenly pursued a former assistant through Malibu and Santa Monica before being arrested for driving under the influence, driving with a suspended license, and possession of cocaine. When Lindsay Lohan was unable to make her scheduled appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," Rob Schneider - in drag - filled in for the actress. When Dina Lohan criticized Leno and Schneider for making light of her daughter's situation, Schneider responded to People Magazine, "Lindsay, get it together. America will forgive you, but you gotta do something positive with your life. I hope she does okay, but at a certain point, there's so many bigger problems in the world than Lindsay Lohan."

I never thought I'd say this, but what wise and true words from Rob Schneider!
