The Word: Flo Rida poses for a Florida mug shot

Flo Rida was arrested very early Thursday morning in Miami Beach after cops noticed the 31-year-old swerving in his red and black 2008 Bugatti (which is valued around $1.7 million). When a police officer began to administer a sobriety test, the rapper admitted, “Officer, I can’t do this. I can’t walk a straight line. I had a few drinks.” And he was correct: His alcohol level was reportedly measured at 0.185.

According to the police report, a crowd gathered around his car, asking police that they let Flo Rida off; a few even volunteered to drive him home. Alas, the cops didn’t budge — and Flo Rida was charged with a DUI and driving on a suspended license. He was taken to the Miami Beach Police Department, where he was then jailed.

Chris Colfer is a busy man

At 21 years old, Chris Colfer is already an award-winning actor for his work on “Glee.” But what he really wants to do is write. Colfer recently signed a two-book deal with Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, according to the Hollywood Reporter, with the first title, “The Land of Stories,” set to be released next summer. “When I was 10 years old, I promised myself that if I ever had the opportunity to write this book, I would jump at the chance,” Colfer said in a statement. “This book has been at the core of my imagination for a long time and I’m excited and nervous to share it.” Colfer is also currently writing a TV pilot for Disney and an independent feature film.

You love Oprah. You really love her.

According Nielsen figures, the final episode of “The Oprah Winfrey Show” drew 16.4 million viewers, making it her most-watched show in more than 18 years. That show, “Why I Love Older Women,” was watched by 17.3 million viewers. So, all she has to do to get viewers for OWN is produce shows solely about cougars and her retirement.
