The Wisconsin State Journal reports Mentell’s Jeep went off the road and struck two trees. Mentell, who was driving alone and not wearing seat belt, was thrown from the vehicle.
A farmer from Blanchardville, Wisconsin saw the car while driving along a rural road, the only spot from which the wrecked car was visible, said Chief Deputy Jon Pepper.
The wreck was discovered at 8:30 a.m., officials believe the crash happened around 3 a.m. Mentell was pronounced dead at the scene.
From 2005 to 2006 Mentell appeared as attorney Garrett Wells on ABC’s “Boston Legal” with co-stars James Spader and William Shatner. Mentell most recently played Terrell, a human character, in last year’s animated film “G-Force,” a movie about a specially trained squad of guinea pigs dispatched to stop a diabolical billionaire from taking over the world.
Justin was also in the Bow Wow & Nick Cannon movie Roll Bounce, a 1970s roller-skating coming-of-age comedy about teens who rule their local rink and are shocked when their home base goes out of business.
Obama’s recent anti-Vegas comments come less than a year after he said federal bailout money shouldn’t be used for corporations to visit Las Vegas.
Yet, the President claims he didn’t mean anything unfavorable about Las Vegas.
Las Vegas Mayor Oscar B. Goodman says President Obama is no longer welcome in Silver City after Obama told a New Hampshire audience, “When times are tough, you tighten your belts, you don’t go buying a boat when you can barely pay your mortgage. You don’t blow a bunch of cash in Vegas when you’re trying to save for college.”
In a letter to U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid President Obama said:
“I hope you know that during my Town Hall today, I wasn’t saying anything negative about Las Vegas. I was making the simple point that families use vacation dollars, not college tuition money, to have fun,” Obama wrote. “There is no place better to have fun than Vegas, one of our country’s great destinations. I have always enjoyed my visits, look forward to visiting in a few weeks, and hope folks will visit in record numbers this year.”
Goodman isn’t buying it, he told reporters gathered into his office at City Hall, “Obama is no friend to Las Vegas. I think he has a psychological hangup about us.”
Senator Reid isn’t very happy either, in a statement released about the incident Reid urged Obama to “lay off Las Vegas.”
“I just spoke to the White House and told them that while the president is correct that people saving for college need to be fiscally responsible, the president needs to lay off Las Vegas and stop making it the poster child for where people shouldn’t be spending their money,” Reid said. “To truly reenergize our economy, we need people to travel to Las Vegas. I would much rather tourists and business travelers spend their money in Las Vegas than spend it overseas.”
Despite his womanising reputation, the 32-year-old singer who has dated a host of Hollywood beauties including Jennifer Aniston, Jessica Simpson and Cameron Diaz – claims he finds dating difficult.
He said: “I’d make dates on Monday for Friday and come Thursday, I’d be so wracked with nerves. Or I would try to do it and get so sick to my stomach that we’d circle the block and then I’d come home.” Although he attracts a lot of female attention Mayer insists he doesn’t sleep with his fans.
He said: “When I was younger I could do it. Now it doesn’t interest me. I would see it as getting high on my own supply.”
Mayer, 32, also claims he is too uptight to enjoy his fame, success and heartthrob status.
He said: “It would be great to be John Mayer if only I lightened up.
“I would like to enjoy the ride a little more because I feel like the china shop and my career is the bull.”
Kesha’s “animal instincts” made her urinate in a sink.
The ‘Tik Tok’ singer – who famously relieved herself in a basin in a London pub while her friend Lily Allen sang to her – claims she had no control over her actions because needing the toilet is an innate human function.
She said: “People made a big deal about me peeing in the sink but that wasn’t that shocking. I wasn’t even drunk. It’s an animal instinct as a human and as an animal. I had to pee. And outside there’s paparazzi everywhere – what am I supposed to do? I accept it’s uncouth. But it’s just being an animal.”
The 22-year-old singer is very excited about the release of her debut album ‘Animal’ on January 5, but is unhappy with the way she has been compared to so many other music stars on her rise to fame.
She explained: “I think it’s cool that people think I’ve got the swagger like Mick Jagger, but that’s not just what I’m about.
“I like the early Madonna comparison but I just don’t get the Lady Gaga or Katy Perry comparisons at all. I don’t sing like them or dress like the. So someone please explain to me how we are similar – apart from that we all have vaginas.”
Steve Jobs asks, “Do we have what it takes to establish a third category of products?” He answers, “The bar is pretty high. It has to be far better at doing some key things. We think we have the goods.”
More than 75 million people already know how to use the iPad, Mr. Jobs says — these are the owners of iPhones and iPod Touches. And there are more than 125 million customer accounts with credit cards, all enabled for one-click shopping on iTunes, the App Store and the new iBook store. “We are at scale, and we are ready for the iPad,” Mr. Jobs says.
Mr. Jobs’ final assessment: “Our most advanced technology in a magical and revolutionary device at an unbelievable price.”
