Hulkamania is going to run wild on the wrestling world once more - Hulk Hogan is coming out of retirement and returning to the ring. Read more »
Hulk Hogan was on the brink of committing suicide after downing a cocktail of Xanax and rum, and he even had his finger on the trigger of a gun. But a well-timed phone call from his Gladiators co-star Laila Ali brought him to his senses and saved his life. Read more »

Hulk Hogan (born Terry Bollea) and his wife Linda (Bollea) Hogan finally reached a settlement in their divorce case in a Pinellas County, Fla. courtroom today, after almost two years of bitter feuding. Read more »
Will the Hogan family ever reconcile their differences? Maybe someday, but right now Brooke Hogan is still pretty sure she knows best, at least when it comes to her mom’s treatment of her in the media.
"I’m the only one with my head on straight," she tells E!’s Daily 10. "I don’t know what’s wrong with mom… dad and brother are doing good. I’m staying straightforward."
In another interview with E! News, Brooke explains that it’s her mom’s tendency to talk about her that has made her distrust her.
"I look at the things she’s released and said about me and I’m like, how could I ever trust her again?" she explains, referring to her mother revealing that Brooke had breast breast augmentation. "How could I ever look at her and be like, ‘You kind of threw me in front of the bus in front of the whole world… Who does that to their kid?"
Brooke’s been sticking to her dad Hulk Hogan’s side in all the family drama, adding, "I’m just looking at how my dad’s treating me and how my mom’s treating me, and my mom has kind of backstabbed me a couple times. I feel betrayed."
As for her mom’s current boytoy, youngin’ Charlie Hill, a former schoolmate of Brooke and brother Nick, Brooke replies, "He is a loser. I don’t have a problem with age, it’s more about character. Her love is not real and not right."
"I personally don’t like him," she adds after detailing all the material things he’s getting out of the relationship with the older woman.
So is there a bright side to all this for Brooke, whose second album, The Redemption, is due out July 21? Perhaps.
"Life has been really rocky, but it’s starting to look up," she says, adding that she’d rather talk about what’s going on than stay mum.
"You can be judged by talking about it or you can be judged by not. I’m an honest person. I vocalize a lot of my feelings. I might as well do it now, right?"
All is not well in the houses of Hogan: After Hulk Hogan challenged his ex-wife Linda Hogan to take a drug test to prove she wasn’t partying it up with her 19-year-old boyfriend, she responded by showing off her clean results.
But Hulk’s not satisfied, as he released a statement today via his lawyer, David Houston.
The statement reads: "Linda Hogan’s drug test is absolutely meaningless without proper tracking and verification. If Linda Hogan wants the world and the courts to believe that this is a valid drug test, she must prove that it was a legally supervised medical test taken at random.
The document she distributed to the media states that she took a medical test which means that she took a urine test with no verification of urine’s source. Anyone can walk into a clinic and take a test, but without supervision we only have her word to go on and that is questionable. If Linda wanted us to believe she was clean, she should have taken advantage of the $100,000 offer by a national radio show for a random legally supervised drug test as opposed to the farce she has perpetrated upon the public."
The Hogans have been embroiled in a bitter, public war of the words for months, and this latest development shows there’s no sign of a ceasefire anytime soon.
Despite accusations of drug use flying back and forth between Linda Hogan, her ex Hulk Hogan and their daughter Brooke Hogan, it seems the mom of two is clean, according to her rep, Gary Smith.
The statement reads: "Linda Hogan responded to Hulk and Brooke Hogan’s public drug test challenge by going to a medical doctor and actually submitting to a full drug screening. After hearing of the malicious allegations, Linda immediately made arrangements to take the test first thing Monday, June 1st for the test which was analyzed at LapCorp labs in Florida."
And there’s even more, as the statement goes on to detail that all results are clean, with Linda testing negative for speed, Marijuana, cocaine, vicodin, morphine, heroin and PCP.

Hulk and Brooke had claimed that Linda was living a bad lifestyle and was using drugs with her younger boyfriend, Charlie Hill, who is 19.
But cleaning her name of any drug dirt isn’t enough for Linda, whose statement goes on to lay blame at her estranged family’s door.
"This has been a very vindictive and hurtful attempt to discredit Linda. She has opened her private medical records to disprove Brooke and Hulk’s horrendous, unsupported allegations. She asks the public respect her privacy on this matter so she may begin to repair her relationship with her daughter," her rep adds.
The Hogan family has been going back and forth lately, with Brooke Hogan laying accusations of drug use at her mother Linda Hogan’s door. Linda then responded by saying her daughter had breast implants, among other things, in a letter to Perez Hilton.
"[If] Brooke continues to spew lies on behalf of her father’s lame attempt to distance himself from the reality that he is no different from the homicidal OJ Simpson, [Linda's new boyfriend] will be forced to put aside his paramedic/firefighting career path and release an album called ‘Redemption’ which will easily surpass any of Brooke’s records sales."
And now Brooke’s dad Hulk Hogan is stepping once more into the fray, with a statement from his lawyer, David Houston:
"Brooke Hogan has spoken out in support of her father only because of her mother’s repeated fabricated attacks on him. She is in the unique position of knowing both parties in this litigation and she has only spoken as to what she knows to be the truth based upon her personal experience with each. Linda has refused repeated invitations by Brooke to reconcile and given these recent comments it appears a mother/daughter relationship is impossible at this time. It is sad that Linda Hogan continues to attempt to throw her family under the bus to gain publicity.
In terms of the ongoing divorce suit, Hulk Hogan and his legal team would gladly take Linda up on her offer to submit to a legally supervised drug test and certainly Terry would do the same. We believe the results would speak for themselves and reveal that Linda’s idea of a good time would definitely not be appropriate for Mass or a family restaurant."
Can’t we all just get along?
