FBI loves celebs more than we do

FBI hat

Forget Star, Us Weekly and even OK! (We included Richard Desmond here as a little joke.) The best celebrity gossip is coming straight from the FBI, thanks to a FOIA request filed by the Associated Press.

The Beach Boys' penchant for psychedelic drugs and Sinatra's alleged sex parties with President John F. Kennedy are old news. But who knew of Liberace's reputed fondness for gambling? His file reports that he was betting with a bookie in Buffalo, N.Y., for years.

Unfortunately, all the dirt is on celebs no longer on our radar, like Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball; football stars Dexter Manley and Walter Payton; Mayors Marion Barry and Frank Rizzo; mobsters Carlo Gambino and Mickey Cohen. (Okay, Marion Barry always gives us a chuckle.)

But we're sure they documents will make nice additions to the flurry of copy/paste biographies we're about to see.
