The Signature Pharmacy scandal isn’t just limited to WWE wrestlers and athletes as a number of stars from the entertainment world are involved with it as well. Timbaland, who appeared on an episode of RAW last spring and was the producer of The Hives’ “Throw it on Me” music video featuring a slew of WWE Divas, has been named a customer of Signature Pharmacy, the company being investigated for illegal distribution of steroids and growth hormone. Timbaland wasn’t the only celebrity named in the investigation as R&B music star Mary J. Blige, rap artists 50 Cent and Wyclef Jean, and award-winning author and producer Tyler Perry have been named as well.

WZR IS BACK TONIGHT: Rob Van Dam and Leticia Cline will be the guests on the return edition of WrestleZone Radio tonight from 7-9 PM EST. I (Ryan Clark) will be on the show on a weekly basis as well to run down all the latest news and rumors. This is going to be a lot of fun each week and the fan response to the show returning has been amazing already. The show used to be the biggest online wrestling radio show back in its heyday and will almost surely take that spot once again with the amount of promotion we will be giving it. I’m thrilled that this show is coming back and proud to be a part of it once again. More information on the show can be found at this link. I know they have Kip James, Christy Hemme, and Marty Janetty all booked for the show in the next two or three weeks so it’s off to a great start. It’s tonight from 7-9 PM EST at http://wrestlezone.com/radio/
