First A-Roid ... then Manny ... now Queen Elizabeth herself has been injected into a scandal involving a performance enhancing substance.
It's all over a racehorse owned by the Queen -- officials in England claim the horse, named Moonlit Path, tested positive for a banned substance after a race in March. But here's the catch: Moonlit Path didn't even win the race -- it finished 6th.
The Queen's peeps have already come up with an excuse, claiming Moonlit Path only got the prohibited acid -- which is also used to treat excessive bleeding -- in the best interests of the "horse's welfare."
The British Horseracing Authority has already charged the horse's trainer for the incident ... so far the Queen is clean.

Although she's reigned over Britain for 52 years, Queen Elizabeth II has yet to choose a successor -- but she sure knows how to pick other things.
Breaking from tradition, Liz -- who looked more like a Golden Girl than a royal -- abstained from her typical cold demeanor and got touchy-feely with her nose while attending the Royal Windsor Horse Show in England on Thursday.
Hopefully, she picked a winner. Big Brown by a nose!

It was "shopping-as-usual" for soon-to-be jailbird Paris Hilton yesterday. Just a day after being sentenced to 45 days in jail for driving on a suspended license, Paris was seen out and about with mom Kathy, lunching at swank joint Prego and browsing the pricey racks of Francis-Orr and Ermenegildo. Paris stopped her shopping long enough to tell paparazzi how she was wronged. "I told the truth yesterday," she said. "I feel that I was treated unfairly and that the sentence is both cruel and unwanted and I don't deserve this."
Adding fire to the flames: Many of Paris' so-called friends don't seem to be taking her plight that seriously, reports the Daily News, though ex-boy toy Stavros Niarchos was there to comfort her. And Paris can feel good knowing that, says a pal, sometimes rival Lindsay Lohan feels "bad" for her. We're sure Paris is sucking up the sympathy.
Queen Elizabeth Shines at Derby

Some of Hollywood's most sparkly stars paled in comparison to the presence of real royalty at yesterday's Kentucky Derby. Queen Elizabeth, decked out in a mint green wool coat and matching hat, watched the race from a private suite at Churchill Downs. To make her feel at home, the Queen was served high tea on china, and munched on cookies decorated like the Union Jack. The Queen and her husband Prince Phillip were the guests of former British Ambassador William Farish.
Jenny McCartney Makes it a Double

Many celebs had to make the difficult decision between attending yesterday's Kentucky Derby or last night's Oscar de la Hoya – Floyd Mayweather Jr. match, but not Jenny McCarthy. McCarthy sipped mint juleps at the derby in the afternoon and then jetted to Las Vegas to cheer de la Hoya later that evening. Others who watched Mayweather trounce de la Hoya in the upset battle: Michael J. Fox, Eva Longoria, Jennifer Lopez, Will Farrell, Leo Dicaprio and Jack Nicholson.

Jeremy Piven dispels the rumor that he stiffed a waitress her tip at Aspen restaurant Matsuhisa and left an "Entourage" DVD instead, as told in this month's Esquire. "That's the most insane thing I have ever heard," he says. "Who carries around a DVD?"... Roseanne Cash was miffed when
Daily News gossip columnist Ben Widdicombe asked about a new biography coming out about mom June Carter Cash, written by Cash's half brother John. "I don't discuss that book," she snapped.

Courtney Love straddled a London balcony while dressed as Queen Elizabeth and took a break for a fag.

While we'd like to see the real queen get this real, we'll settle for Courtney in drag.
We'd like to go on, but that's all there is, about Miss Love, the old slag.
