No sushi for you!
"Nicollette Sheridan Banned for Life by the Sushi Nazi": No, this isn't a Seinfeld spinoff in bizarro world. According to the National Enquirer, Sheridan got an unexpectedly raw deal recently when she tried to send back some "too fishy" flounder at L.A.'s Sushi Nozawa. Seems the tempura, um, temperamental chef Nozawa, known to many as the Sushi Nazi, wouldn't allow it. All his regular customers understand there are no returns and no exchanges--ever. But the episode quickly became a diva duel, complete with voices raised (as Hollywood heavyweights including Lucy Liu looked on). One eyewitness said, "Nicollette had a meltdown--she was absolutely seething." Nozawa himself said, "She kept yelling how angry she was. I told her, 'No, I am angry with you! You need to get out now and never come back!" Sheridan shouted he couldn't treat people like that and called him a "weird old man." He reportedly screamed, "You're nasty, nasty lady star. That's it. You are banned for life. No sushi for you!" Sheridan's reps dispute that account. They say Sheridan and Housewives costar Marcia Cross were told to leave because Cross wasn't eating, even though they say Sheridan was prepared to pay double so her friend could keep her seat at the sushi bar. Both versions end the same, however, with the Housewives California-rolling right out of there.
