Ricky Gervais didn't have the same razor-sharp edge in his quips directed at the rich and famous at this year's Golden Globe awards as opposed to last year's -- but the British creator of The Office still managed to razz a few famous targets, including Jodie Foster, Kim Kardashian, Madonna and Justin Bieber.

Gervais, in his opening monologue, said show organizers told him he couldn't talk about Mel Gibson or his 2011 film, Jodie Foster's The Beaver.

“I haven’t seen it myself," Gervais said in his best double entendre tone. “I’ve spoken to a lot of guys here, they haven’t seen it either. But that doesn’t mean it’s not any good."

On Kardashian: “The Golden Globes are to the Oscars what Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton -- a bit louder, a bit trashier, a bit drunker and more easily bought.”

The estate has a five-bedroom main house built in 1949 in a Cape Cod style. There's a two-bedroom guest house, a tennis court and a swimming pool.

But if you were hoping for a panic room, there wasn't one.

Jodie Foster's Dad Facing 20 Years In Prison For Running Investment Scam


Posted on Dec 03, 2011 @ 01:10PM - 5 comments

By Radar Staff

Lucius Foster is facing up to 20 years in prison for allegedly ripping off over two dozen investors, taking more than $130,000 in an apparent housing scam in Los Angeles, The Daily Beast is reporting.

Jodie Foster's estranged dad was in a Los Angeles courtroom on Thursday, charged with 25 counts of grand theft and 10 counts of contracting without a license.

Mincing no words in his opening statement, Deputy City Attorney Dan Cocek said, “Mr. Foster is a liar and a cheat. He has had a scam going for years to steal money from people. A lot of people fell for it. He sounded so convincing.”

According to Cocek, the 89-year-old building contractor bilked each of his clients -- who he found on CraigsList --  out of a $5,000 down payment after he claimed he would build them low-cost modular homes for $85,000. He planned to make the three-bedroom, 2,000-square-foot homes out of metal cargo containers from China.

Foster is representing himself in court.
