QUICK TAKES

He's still mad

William Shatner is not dropping his feud with former "Star Trek" co-star George Takei. In an online video, Shatner says: "George has been mean to me for a long time -- I mean, decades and decades." He also has complained that he wasn't invited to Takei's wedding to Brad Altman, though the couple has said Shatner was invited. Shatner says he never received an invitation. He also has invited Takei to appear on his Biography Channel talk show, "Shatner's Raw Nerve."

Garrett investigated

Emmy-winning actor Brad Garrett is being investigated by authorities after allegations of battery involving a photographer in West Hollywood. Los Angeles County sheriff's Sgt. Kristin Aloma said the actor has not been arrested in the incident, which occurred late Tuesday or early Wednesday. She provided no other details. A video posted on celebrity gossip site TMZ.com shows photographers shooting and taping Garrett as he left a restaurant. As he approached his vehicle, he briefly chased one photographer, then pushed the video camera of another. The man immediately claims Garrett broke his camera, although it shows him holding it up like he is filming. According to the video, words are exchanged, and Garrett appears to challenge the paparazzi to a fight, but no punches were thrown.

Just don't speak, really

In an interview on "Access Hollywood," Lindsay Lohan describes her experience on Election Day when President-elect Barack Obama won by saying: "It was really exciting. It's an amazing feeling. It's our first colored president." A spokeswoman for Lohan didn't immediately return messages. Interviewer Maria Menounos didn't question the actress on her use of the term, and the remark was not mentioned in an online story on the show's Web site. However, an "extended interview" video on the Web site did include the remark. A spokesman for the show said in a statement: "We believe the word in question that Ms. Lohan used was unintelligible."

A slight delay

"Morning Joe" with host Joe Scarborough will have a seven-second delay after an F-bomb was dropped on the MSNBC news-talk show. Scarborough slipped Monday -- and seemed to surprise even himself -- while attempting to describe the manner of Rahm Emanuel, incoming White House chief of staff. Scarborough has apologized repeatedly for the gaffe. Former MSNBC host Don Imus aired his show with a similar delay, according to MSNBC spokesman Jeremy Gaines.

Killing us with his song

"It's like greener pastures, you know what I mean? And so, I'm just going to try and like, I'll just be doing the other thing. ... Hopefully, I will emotionally impact you with that, as well." -- Joaquin Phoenix, on giving up movies to focus on music.
