Florida State Troopers can't seem to get a hold of Tiger Woods after his car accident snafu Friday morning. 

The holed-up-in-home sports star turned down the Florida Highway Patrol twice, after troopers visited his Windermere, Fla. home Saturday looking for more answers regarding the bizarre tree-smashing crash. 

The Florida Highway Patrol received word from Wood's rep that the golf pro and his golf club-swinging wife, Elin Nordegren, would not be available for an interview that was previously scheduled for Saturday. 

Cops were asked to return to the home Sunday for a sit-down. The agency is still investigating the incident, and has not yet reviewed the 9-1-1 tapes from the accident. 

Wood's missing-in-action behavior comes on the heels of circulating rumors that the 33-year-old athlete's wife got into a heated argument with him over an alleged affair.

Look out, Balloon Brood, you've got a couple other reality-TV-aspiring jokers ready to give you a run for your money felony count.

The Virginia couple that managed to crash a state dinner at the White House this week and get up close and personal with President Barack Obama is the subject of a federal investigation, officials announced Friday.

At the behest of the president himself, investigators for the Secret Service are seeking evidence to potentially file charges against Michaele and Tareq Salahi—a couple attempting to land a spot on Bravo's upcoming Real Housewives of D.C.

The Salahis on Tuesday snuck into the president's first state dinner, honoring the prime minister of India Tuesday, then posted pictures of themselves hobnobbing with dignitaries, including the veep, on her Facebook page. 

The duo even managed to meet the first family on a receiving line, bypassing the Secret Services with nary an invitation or red flag.

And now Bravo, on the verge of launching the latest installment in its popular reality fanchise, is scrambling to distance itself from any shenanigans, insisting to E! News that the Salahis participation has "not been finalized."

Tiger Woods has no problem driving when it comes to a golf course. Navigating his street...that's another story. 

The 33-year-old master of the links is fine after a solo car accident outside his Windermere, Fla., home Friday morning. 

The accident occurred as Woods pulled out of his driveway, struck a fire hydrant and then smashed his Cadillac SUV into a tree, according to an incident report from the Florida Highway Patrol.

In a fitting bit of ingenuity, the Nike-endorsed star's wife, Elin Nordegren, used a golf club to smash out the back window to get him out, according to ABC affiliate WFTV.

Who needs Adam Lambert when you got Chris Brown?

ABC announced today that it has landed an interview with the beleaguered R&B star and says that this time he really is going to come clean and talk about his assault of Rihanna. 

After dodging direct questions about the infamous Grammy-eve beatdown in interviews with everyone from Larry King to Wendy Williams, the "Crawl" singer is set to divulge details of the incident in an interview with Robin Roberts on ABC's 20/20 Dec. 11.   

The 20-year-old singer, whose new album Grafitti debuts Dec. 8, will only answer questions and will not perform on the show, which has already been taped.

His ABC interrogation comes just a month after Rihanna's revealing sit-down with Diane Sawyer, which on the Nov. 5 installment of 20/20. The 21-year-old fashionista said she was "embarrassed" that she still had feelings for Brown after the incident. 

Brown is performing community service as a part of his assault sentence. The ex-couple must also steer clear of each other until 2014 as a part of Brown's probation terms.

Wanna get away Bruce Springsteen? 

"The Boss" might have felt like hopping on a Southwest flight or his tour bus after he shouted "Hello Ohio!"…to a crowd in Michigan. 

The 60–year-old "Wrecking Ball" crooner wrecked his chances of playing off the blunder after he referenced Ohio three separate times at the Palace of Auburn Hills Friday night during his "Working on a Dream" tour. 

That was until E Street Band guitarist Steve Van Zandt stepped in and saved him.   

"I just grabbed him and said, 'you don't realize it, but you're saying Ohio and we're in Michigan.' He said 'What?!?," Zandt told Rolling Stone. "In his mind he knew he was in Detroit, but somehow Detroit wound up in Ohio for a minute." 

The Boss probably felt like he was "Born to Run" at that point, but the city-swapping star stayed put and treated the forgiving fans to an energetic three-hour concert.

There's nothing like an Oscar statuette to kick off the holiday season.

Iconic actress Lauren Bacall, B-movie maven Roger Cornam and Godfather cinematographer Gordon Willis were all presented with gold statuettes Saturday night at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' Governors Awards.

The academy broke the tradition of its March on-camera ceremony, and instead held an off-camera, black-tie banquet for the honorees at the Grand Ballroom above the Kodak Theater. 

Producer John Calley, famed for The Davinci Code and Catch-22 among other films, was also honored with the Irving J. Thalberg Memorial Award.

Carrie Prejean's boobs are full of faith.  

At least…that's what she's claiming.  

The 22-year-old dethroned former Miss USA took a stand for Christians with breast implants everywhere, telling Christianity Today that the Bible is all for her pageant-bought boobs.  

When the outspoken beauty queen was asked about her implants coinciding with her Christian faith, Prejean said "I don't think there's anything wrong with getting breast implants as a Christian. I think it's a personal decision. I don't see anywhere in the Bible where it says you shouldn't get breast implants." 

Where's Larry King when you need him.

Britney Spears brought the Circus to town, but probably not the way she was hoping to.

Fans have been complaining about the quality of the pop tart's performance Down Under, even walking out of her show in Perth, according to reports in the Australian media.

The cause? Disgruntled concertgoers apparently accused the pop tart of lip-syncing during the dance numbers, as well as giving a lackluster performance overall, according to the Daily Telegraph.

One story even claimed she was "boring."

One thing the Swiss aren't neutral about? Jonas Brothers.

Unfortunately, Switzerland is going to have to wait a little longer Nick, Joe and Kevin to rock the chalet.  

The "Paranoid" singers pulled out of a concert Saturday night in Zurich, Switzerland after 17-year-old Nick Jonas fell ill with an upper respiratory infection, according to the band's Twitter page, which said the youngest Jobro had been "advised by his doctor not to speak or sing." 

This is the first time ever the scream-inducing trio have canceled a show due to sickness, and the polite lads were apologetic to their fans. 

On Sunday morning Nick thanked fans for their support, tweeting "I am happy to tell everyone that I woke up this morning, and I'm already feeling better! Thanks for all the prayers. Can't wait to rock Bilbao!"
