I hope that this isn't true. I've posted it here because it's for on an 'Entertainment' topic than a full news article.

Batman star Christian Bale has been bailed by police after being questioned about allegations he assaulted his mother and sister.
The 34-year-old was arrested and held for more than four hours after earlier attending a central London police station by appointment.
Mr Bale is alleged to have lashed out at his mother and sister in his suite at London's Dorchester Hotel on Sunday.
He has been released on bail until September pending further inquiries.
The Welsh-born actor stars in the latest Batman film, The Dark Knight.
"A 34-year-old man attended a police station in central London by appointment and was arrested in connection with an allegation of assault," a police spokesman said.
The Hollywood star attended the European premiere of The Dark Knight last night in London's Leicester Square.
He had been due to meet radio journalists at the Dorchester to promote the film on Tuesday afternoon.
It has been reported that the assault allegation was originally filed at a police station in Hampshire.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman confirmed it had received an allegation from another force.
Mr Bale rose to fame as the child star of Steven Spielberg's Empire of the Sun.
He went on to play Patrick Bateman in American Psycho, and had leading roles in Shaft and Captain Corelli's Mandolin.
In 2005, he took on the role of the Caped Crusader in Batman Begins and reprised the role in The Dark Knight.
