Linda Hogan Responds To Hulks OJ Simpson Empathizing Interview
Posted on 16. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
Linda Hogan is responding to comments her estranged husband, former wrestling star Hulk Hogan, made in an article with Rolling Stone this week.
In the interview, on newsstands Friday, Hulk is quoted as saying, “I could’ve turned everything into a crime scene, like O.J., cutting everybody’s throat. You see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, sleeping in your bed, with your wife. I mean, I totally understand O.J.”
The former family man later released a statement insisting his comments were taken out of context.
“Hulk’s serial cheating destroyed our marriage, our family and our future. Sadly, his recent comments remind us that his definition of fair is much different than what the law dictates,” Linda said in response to the controversy Wednesday evening.
A rep for Linda says that the family is “taking these recent comments seriously,” adding that the mother of two is using Hulk’s recent comments as futher evidence that the wrestling legend truly is the psycho she always believed he was.
“We have always maintained that the fear that Linda has had to live with comes from the rage and instability much too often associated with pro wrestlers.”

Hulk Hogan Starts Damage Control On OJ Simpson Statement
Posted on 15. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
Hulk Hogan wants to clarify controversial remarks he made in this week’s edition of Rolling Stone, on newsstands Friday, April 17.
While discussing his bitter divorce from wife of 24 years Linda, the wrestling legend told Stone reporters that he could have turned Linda’s life into a “crime scene,” adding “I totally understand O.J.”
Hogan now says his statements were taken out of context.
“Hulk in no way condones the OJ situation. As part of a larger conversation, he referred to it to exemplify his frustration with his own situation,” the athlete’s rep said a statment to the press this afternoon.
Um….we’re not sure that helps, Hulk.

Hulk Hogan Understands Why OJ Killed His Wife.
Posted on 15. Apr, 2009 by CSS.
After 24 years of marriage, a reality show, and a wrestling career, Hulk Hogan and wife Linda called it quits in 2008. Both subsequently began dating much younger people.
After Hulk was tossed out of his $18 million Central Florida mansion and having his estranged wife blow through nearly $400,000 a month as they hash out the details of their split in a bitter divorce battle, Hulk says he now understands why some men go postal and snap their wives’ necks.
“I could have turned everything into a crime scene, like OJ, cutting everybody’s throat,” Hulk fumed this week in an interview withRolling Stone. “You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can’t go to anymore, you’re driving through downtown Clearwater and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife . . . I totally understand OJ. I get it.”
Wow..Wow.. WOW!!! I didn’t think the Hogans could slip any further from the level of disgust I currently feel for the entire family- but now Hulks gone and put it on a whole new playing field. To say such statements publicly about the mother of your children is disgraceful to say the least! I don’t condone violence of any nature and I especially don’t condone people talking about hypothetical violent acts! So disturbing!
I bet Hulks been studying OJ’s ‘If I Did It’..
Hey Linda….you might want to petition the court for an order of protection.

Hulk Hogan Tell-All Book
Posted on 22. Mar, 2009 by CSS.
Just in case you didn’t have a big enough window into The Wonderful World of the Hogan’s on their VH1 reality series, wrestling legend Terry Bollea, perhaps best known as Hulk Hogan, has inked a six-figure deal with St. Martin’s Press to pen an account of his life.
According to veteran celebrity snitch Cindy Adams, the 320 page memoir–with a 16-page color photo insert–will cover The Hulk’s humble beginnings as a boy growing up in Tampa, his two-decade marriage to Lina Bollea, and of course, his career as a 12-time World Heavyweight Champ and six-time World Wrestling Federation Champ.
Perhaps most notably, Hulk will discuss his son Nick’s near-fatal car crash that left a young Marine brain-dead. The Hogan’s conduct in the wake of the crash left the family open to public scorn.
Here’s an excerpt from page 52 of the memoir:
“I grasped the side of the car with my hands when I finally saw Nick my only son folded up like an accordion with his head down by the gas pedal. I could see he was alive . . . for a second I was relieved. Then the chaos set in. The noise of engines and sirens. A saw. Paramedics pulling his friend John from the seat. So much blood. I can’t describe how panicked I was. The police and firefighters surrounding us seemed panicked, too. The firefighters started cutting the side of the car open. I’m still standing there when I hear my boy screaming, ‘No, no, no, stop! Stop! You’re gonna cut my legs off. Dad! Just unbuckle the seat belt . . . !’ So I reach in and I push the button on his seat belt, and Nick crawls out.”
“But not John. John wasn’t moving.”
Hulk Hogan’s autobiography goes on sale Oct. 27.
My only guess is that with the release of his tell-all, the never to be out done Linda Hogan’s won’t be far behind!!

Linda Hogan Using Death Threat Against Victims Mom As Her PR Oppurtunity
Posted on 01. Mar, 2009 by CSS.
J
ohn Graziano was left in a permanent vegetative state with literally part of his skull missing after Hulk and Linda Hogan’s son, Nick, got in a car accident in August, 2007 when drunk and drag racing on a public street. Instead of expressing their remorse that their son so carelessly endangered his passenger’s life and left him irreparably damaged, Nick and Linda issued a statement that John wasn’t wearing his seatbelt. The Hogan family continued to talk smack about the victim afterwards, calling him a negative person and making obnoxious statements that the accident was God’s will.
Nick spent a measley 166 days in jail after pleading guilty to reckless driving, which many, including myself- thought it was not enough. He’s out now and the first thing he did was head to Vegas to celebrate.
Victim John Graziano’s father is now under police custody after cops caught him in a sting trying to hire someone to kill his wife, John’s mom. The idiot paid an undercover cop $2,100 plus a $13 pizza gift card to kill his wife in a car accident. Yup, he went ahead and chipped in a pizza gift card to up the anty!
Today, I received an e-mail from Linda Hogan’s PR person informing me about this, with a completely unnecessary statement from Linda. She also used it as an opportunity to slam the family. According to a local newspaper, Linda is also claiming that she was threatened by this guy, which police of course can’t confirm:
Linda’s statement, e-mailed to me:
“Any threat from Ed Graziano would and is being taken very seriously. We all prey [sic] for John’s recovery. This kind of behavior is why John turned to us as a loving family and we made him one of our own. God Bless John.” Linda Bollea
News report, in which Linda claims she’s being threatened too:
Clearwater, Florida — Ed Graziano is behind bars accused of trying to hire someone to kill his wife. But Linda Bollea apparently believes Graziano wanted to hurt her too.
Bollea’s publicist tells 10 Connects “people around the case” have told Hulk Hogan’s estranged wife Graziano also made threats aimed at Bollea. After hearing about the possible threats Bollea’s publicist described her as “scared to death.”
Bollea issued a statement Thursday night saying “Any threat from Ed Graziano would and is being taken very seriously.”
A spokesperson for the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office could not confirm the alleged threats aimed at Bollea, but they did detail Graziano’s apparent attempt to kill his wife.
Authorities say Graziano paid $1,100 in cash, a $1,000 personal check and a $13.06 Westshore Pizza gift card to have his wife murdered. According to detectives, Graziano wanted his wife killed in a car accident.
A tipster told officials about Ed Graziano’s plan and an under-cover detective posed as a “go-between” to a “hit-man” as they investigated the case. The Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office learned about the plot in December and also notified Debra Graziano as a precaution.
Thursday, Ed Graziano was arrested at his home in Palm Harbor and later booked into the Pinellas County jail. He’s expected to make his first court appearance on Friday.
On August 26th, 2007 Ed and Debra Graziano’s son John was seriously injured in a car crash with Hogan’s son Nick Bollea.
STFU Linda Hogan! Your son and your family caused this family enough pain and suffering with your careless actions and words. Now that they’re going through more problems, you want to rub it in!
Linda never should have issued a statement about something that didn’t concern her. Now she’s only made this story get national attention and brought more shame on that family. What a nasty piece of work that woman is.

Brooke & Hulk Become An E! True Hollywood Story.
Posted on 28. Oct, 2008 by CSS.
A year ago most of us wouldn’t have cared enough about the Hogan family to watch five minutes of television about them. Now they’re getting their own hour-long E! True Hollywood episode. Both Hulk and Brooke were interviewed for the episode, along with several of the family’s friends. Hulk’s soon-to-be ex-wife Linda declined to be interviewed and son Nick was in jail at the time. I’m guessing a prison interview either wasn’t possible or wasn’t deemed to be good PR.
There’s a lot of talk about how hard this last year has been on the family, and most – including the family friends – seem to have come to the consensus that the main problem was their reality show Hogan Knows Best. Here are a few snippets E! released in advance of the show.
Hulk Hogan on his feelings over the divorce: “It was shocking. … I didn’t know if I was going to vomit or pass out or cry, and I kind of took a few moments, and it was like I got kicked by a mule. … I was one of these hopeless romantics that thought no matter what happened, I thought I would be the one who was married forever.”
Brooke Hogan, leading up to Hulk’s “Larry King Live” interview: “It was to the point where we were getting so just slaughtered with this press of just false rumors and false stories, it was just like the truth has to come out.”
Brooke Hogan, on her dad being alone: “There’s been times where he’s been alone that have scared the living daylights out of me and I’m like, ‘Dad, I’ll be right there.’ He’s very emotional, and he starts over thinking things, and he starts getting really sad.”
Brooke Hogan, on her father’s current girlfriend, Jennifer McDaniel: “I really do like Jennifer a lot. It would probably kill my mom to hear this. I’m glad that she’s around because, you know, I’m trying to do my own thing and work, and it’s like I can’t be there 24/7 so it’s nice to know that there’s somebody that I trust with, you know, taking care of him as much as I would.”
Hulk Hogan, on Nick’s sentencing for reckless driving: “When the judge said you’re gonna get 8 months in jail, Nick didn’t turn around and look at me for advice, guidance or anything. He just took it like a man. I never got to say goodbye to him, you know.”
Brooke Hogan, on how the incident affected her brother: “Nick, for being in his situation, for being in the public eye, it was a good lesson. He definitely he got a wake up call.”
Brooke Hogan, on the effect of her brother Nick’s car accident on her parents’ relationship: “The accident, I think really showed them that they just don’t view things the same as individuals and as parents, you know, so, it was just kind of like a wakeup call. I just think that all the stress of our life kind of made it happen sooner.”
-From TampaBay.com
If Hulk really wants to improve the family’s media image, he’s got to stop saying anything complimentary about Nick. Things like talking about how he took his sentence as a man just makes people want to slap him. No one respects him more for that, he just didn’t get criticized for NOT taking it like a man. There’s nothing special about it.
I don’t think it’ll be possible for this family to ever rehab their image. Not just because what Nick did was so revolting, but because the family has never publicly apologized for raising the little boy to think that racing cars is more important than other people’s lives.
