A 911 call from a woman driving behind Chris Henry during the pickup truck incident that ultimately took his life provided a new, scary take on the events.

She told the dispatcher that the Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver, shirtless, was “beating on the back window of the truck,” presumably from its bed.

His arm was in a cast from injuries suffered during this NFL season.

At some point during the Wednesday incident, the football player fell from the truck, sustaining injuries that left Chris Henry dead at age 26 this morning.

A second person called 911 at some point after Chris fell, and reported the severity of the situation, as Henry was clearly badly injured and “looked dead.”

It is not known what prompted the bizarre situation, but Henry’s fiancee, Loleini Tonga, was believed to have been driving the vehicle he fatally fell from.

You can listen to both 911 calls here.

As 2010 approaches, The Hollywood Gossip staff looks back on the year that was, honoring 10 finalists for our prestigious, 3rd Annual Celebrity of the Year award.

These A-to-Z-listers have given us their best, their worst, their nude pics (sometimes), their absurd, off-the-wall antics (often) and their over-the-top scandals.

It’s time for THG to pay tribute to this greatness.

Last week, we continued the ‘09 countdown with Taylor Swift at #7. Today, we present Celebrity of the Year Finalist #6: All of Tiger Woods’ Mistresses!

Tiger Woods proved to be quite a player this year!

Three weeks ago, few had heard of Rachel Uchitel, although a previous tabloid report tied her to married Bones star David Boreanaz. But she’s notorious now.

So are Jamie Grubbs, Kalika Moquin, Jamie Jungers, Mindy Lawton, Cori Rist, Holly Sampson, Joslyn James, Loredana Jolie, Julie Postle and Theresa Rogers.

They’ve given us their tawdry Tiger tales, their hilarious text messages and emails, their trashy lingerie pics and more news than we can even keep track of.

For their collective impact in what has to be the biggest sex scandal and one of the biggest sports stories in years, we salute you, Tiger Woods mistresses.

Which Tiger mistress would you rather … you know?

Former Alaska Governor and current famous person Sarah Palin says she meant no disrespect to Sen. John McCain by blacking out his name on a sun visor.

On vacation in Hawaii, Palin for some reason chose to wear a visor from her campaign emblazoned with McCain’s name scribbled out with black marker.

Palin said she just wore it to stay under the radar (!?) and that the hotel where she and her family were staying had to chase away five photographers.

Here’s the text of the statement she released today:

“I am so sorry if people took this silly incident the wrong way. I adore John McCain, support him 100 percent and will do everything I can to support his reelection.”

“As everyone knows, I was honored and proud to run with him. And Todd and I were with him in D.C. just a week ago. So much for trying to be incognito.”

So, in summation, Sarah Palin is saying that:

1. The visor could transform one of the most famous people in politics into a plan ol’ ordinary soccer mom on a Hawaiian beach (wearing a shirt that said “If you don’t like America, why don’t you get the hell out?” no less).
2. Blacking out small print that simply read “McCain,” as in her former running mate, somehow fit into this brilliant plan to make the visor more discreet.
3. The gesture was entirely devoid of motive.

Eh, we’ll buy it. Consider the source.

Due to the presence of Scott Disick as his dad, the THG staff has determined that Mason Dash might be in for a tough childhood.

However, a report in Star magazine has great, life-altering news for the newborn: Disick might not be his father after all!

Anonymous, likely made-up sources say Michael Girgenti - a 23-year-old model and rapper that goes by the stage name of Premo Stallone - banged the heck out of Kourtney Kardashian around the time she got impregnanted.

“Kourtney hooked up with Michael twice while she and Scott were on the outs. He’s definitely been mentioned as a possibility for being the father of her baby,” the insider claims.

Michael “Premo Stallone” Girgenti belongs on Jersey Shore - and, possibly, on Mason Dash Disick’s birth cerificate as the real father!

While a Kardashian rep insists Scott is Mason’s biological father, Michael himself was asked if could have fathered the child. His intriguing response?

“You could say that, yeah.”

We are saying that, Premo. After all, everyone knows how much Kourtney hates taking her birth control pills, yet loves to have her name in the news.

Jon Gosselin is almost ready to (legally) become a free man. Looks like Hailey Glassman won’t be there to help him celebrate his divorce, though.

The 22-year-old ex-fling of the reality star was spotted kissing celebrity boxing promoter Damon Feldman at a Pennsylvania bar on Wednesday.

All the while, Jon Gosselin was fuming mad inside his car.

Despite claims that he’s over Glassman, the douchebag dad seemed shaken up that Hailey’s moved on and found a new guy with a “real” job.

“Hailey and Damon really like one another and they have started to date casually,” a source said. “While Hailey was inside doing promotional work, Jon just kept on bombarding her with texts from his car, trying to get in and see her.

“He was messaging her: ‘I want to talk. I just want to talk.’ Eventually a couple of us went out and told him to stop but he refused to go away.”

WTF JON!?! Hailey Glassman’s been saying that a lot lately.

“Eventually, Hailey took one of his calls and barked ‘Leave me alone! Stop stalking me please!’ He seemed to get the message and drove away from the venue, much to everybody’s relief because she wants nothing to do with the guy.”

As for the new man in the life of Hailey Glassman: “Damon really likes Hailey and wants to get to know her, so Gosselin, just stay out of the picture!”

Thanks to a recent court ruling, at least he’ll be off of your TV set.

Jon and Hailey, who are rumored to be still living together despite a contentious breakup, have also been at odds in the courtroom lately.

Deposed by lawyers from TLC who are suing Jon Gosselin for breach of contract, Hailey labeled Jon a “monster” and a “master manipulator.”

Next up for Jon? A January court date. For Hailey? She’ll be refereeing a celebrity boxing event this Friday at the Philadelphia Airport Ramada.

The main event pits John Wayne Bobitt against local fighter Tony Fusco.
