Batman arrested for assaulting his mother?!?


Boy is my husband going to be upset if this is true. He loves Cristian Bale's portrayal of his favorite comic book super hero. But if the record breaking box office ticket sales continue for "Dark Knight", I don't think it will really make much difference. I see a trilogy. Do you think they will bring back Cat Woman next time?
Buzz up!Christian Bale was arrested Tuesday for allegedly assaulting his 61-year-old mother and 40-year-old sister, according London's Daily Telegraph.

After being held for more than four hours, he was released on bail. He is to return to the station in September pending further inquiries.

The incident allegedly occurred at a west London hotel on Sunday. His mother and sister went to police on Monday.

A police spokesman — who declined to identify Bale, 34 — told the paper: "A 34-year-old man attended a London Police Station on Tuesday by appointment and was arrested in connection with an allegation of assault. He remains in custody."

Bale appeared to be undeterred by the news at Monday's premiere of The Dark Knight in London.

He told Usmagazine.com it felt "great" supporting the movie as he walked the carpet with his wife Sibi. (They have a daughter Emmaline, 3.)

Asked what it was like to have the highest box office ever, he told Us, "it's wonderful! But I'm not a business man. I just enjoy doing what I do and whatever happens after that is gravy.

"I hope people are as excited about the movie as I am," Bale added. "The good thing is I don't feel like a con-man - the movie really does live up to the hype."

Playing the caped crusader wasn't easy, he said.

"Try putting on a bat suit and not laughing at yourself, it's very tricky," Bale told Us. "The only way you can manage that is by creating this demonic, angry creature. You cease to become a man, you become a creature."
