ET has confirmed that all charges against 'Hairspray' star Nikki Blonsky and "America's Next Top Model" contestant Bianca Golden, stemming from a July airport melee, have been dropped. A case is proceeding, however, against one individual involved in the fight.
'Hairspray' star Nikki Blonsky makes her nightclub debut next week onstage at Feinstein's at the Loews Regency in Manhattan, and she tells ET's Thea Andrews that she's experienced a huge outpouring of love and support from family, fans and friends since her unexpected arrest in the Turks and Caicos Islands last month.

In a new photo obtained by ET (see above) Nikki is seen at court Friday in a neck brace, believed to be worn as a result of an injury suffered during the fight. Bianca was also arrested and also appeared in court today.

D'oh! Homer Simpson was no match for 00-Damon at the box office this weekend. 'The Bourne Ultimatum,' the third in the action-spy franchise starring MATT DAMON as renegade agent Jason Bourne, clobbered 'The Simpsons Movie' for first place with $70.2 million.
It was the largest of the Bourne movie openings. Meanwhile, America's favorite blustery TV dad and his yellow-colored family settled for second place, taking home $25.6 million.
