TRAVIS BARKER SPEAKS OUT -- ON VIDEO!
Blink-182 drummer and rumored
Paris Hilton love toy
Travis Barker got a lot off his chest at the never-ending birthday celebration for
Nicky Hilton at Tangerine nightclub in Las Vegas, NV on October 6th.
The tattooed father and soon-to-be ex-husband of
Shanna Moakley revealed to
Celebrity Week that he hasn't spoken with Shanna since he filed for divorce, that they will share custody of their children Landon Asher and Alabama Luella and he doesn't know what to make of the Paris/Shanna feud, "I think Shanna was unfaithful in her relationship and she doesn't have a right to go after every girl I am friends with after the fact. Be bummed that you were unfaithful. Don't be bummed that I have moved on." Shanna has denied being unfaithful to Travis in other interviews.
Travis isn't willing to place any bets on a Paris/Shanna rematch, "I wouldn't. That's the mother of my children. So I am not looking for her to do anything like that. You know? I am looking for her to be am adult, just like I am. I am not out chasing guys around that she is being with, you know what I mean? But then again, I am not desperate for attention, either."
Travis also defends Paris, "I believe she is an innocent bystander. She is my friend. I am not her boyfriend. I am not her old man. She is just my friend. I think anyone catching an ass whooping because you are somebody's friend is uncalled for — especially when you are a mother of three!"
Aside from his feudin' females, Travis has bigger things to worry about, namely his recent arm injury, "I will find out in six weeks whether it is a tumor or it is just a break. Right now they are saying I just have stress breaks all along my bone and if it was to break, it would shatter. If those breaks don't get better and my bone still looks the way it does through MRIs and X-Rays then I may have something big growing inside my arm. But I won't be able to tell until then."
When doctors mentioned the possibility that he might have a tumor, Travis was shocked. "I acted like I didn't hear it the first time. You know what I mean? But I have to accept it and try to deal with it. I was like 'Don't be a sissy. Your arm hurts. Just ice it every day.' I couldn't put my thumb on it. I went and saw a doctor in Europe — an urgent care doctor who didn't know how to read X-rays — and he was like, 'I don't know what to tell you, dude. Unless you have a bone sticking out of your arm, go for it. Take some rest.' And I had shows for the next twelve days, so I just played them. And I iced my arm every day. Then after the last one with AM, I just couldn't take it anymore. It was awful. But I feel good knowing that I at least kind of have an idea of what is wrong with it. That makes me feel better."
Finally, Travis is trying his best to be a good daddy, "This weekend, my main focus is
my son's birthday on Sunday. I have been spending all weekend planning that since I got home from Europe. We have Darth Vader coming. We have the Wiggles coming. I have Buzz Lightyear coming. I have Spiderman coming. I have Spiderman's girlfriend coming. I have everybody coming. I can't wait! I am forced to love (the Wiggles). My son loves them. He knows all the songs. So I actually probably know a little too much. So I support them. I think they are good for the kids."
