Lindsay Lohan secretly teamed up with Vince Offer, the “Sham Wow” and “Slapchop” guy, just days before being sentenced to jail to film scenes for his movie “Underground Comedy Movie 2010.” In the movie, Lindsay plays a Marilyn Monroe type character who fires shots at the paparazzi with two hand guns while totally wearing her SCRAM bracelet for the world to see!

Per TMZ:

We’re told Lindsay was cool with the SCRAM being in the shot … and even ad-libbed a line referencing the device.

Check out the trailer above for your ‘wtf’ moment of the day. Yep, this film is just about right for her talent.

‘Roseanne’ Star Sara Gilbert Comes Out

July 30, 2010 By Holly Stafford 1 Comment

Sara Gilbert, who played daughter Darlene Conner on a decade’s worth of “Roseanne” and now has a guest staring role as Leslie Winkle on “The Big Bang Theory,” officially came out publicly about her partner and her sexuality Thursday at a panel discussion for her upcoming CBS show “The Talk.” At the Television Critics Assn. summer press tour in Beverly Hills, Gilbert spoke openly about raising a boy and a girl with her partner, TV producer Allison Adler.

Per PopEater:

“I’ve been acting my whole life, and I’ve never really discussed my personal life. This is a talk show, so obviously, I’m going to be discussing my life more, and I felt that the first place I wanted to do it wasn’t in a CBS press release. It just seemed impersonal, and I felt like I’d rather come in person and talk to you about all that stuff here,” she added.

She’ll be discussing motherhood, parenting and more soon on “The Talk” with co-hosts Julie Chen, Sharon Osbourne, Holly Robinson Peete, Leah Remini and Marissa Jaret Winokur. She addressed her sexuality when asked if she thought it was going to be comfortable being “out.”

“This is a whole new world for me. I’m not an expert on this, or I don’t analyze these things,” she explained. “I’m just sort of living my life.”

“I don’t think [being out] will be a problem … I don’t ever really think of things as being out or in … I just think I am who I am, and when topics come up that are appropriate, I’ll talk about them and share when it seems right,” she added.

I was under the assumption that she’s been ‘out’ for years! But good for her feeling comfortable with who she is!

Kara DioGuardi Fired From ‘American Idol’, Steven Tyler In

July 30, 2010 By Holly Stafford Leave a Comment

The revolving door on the “American Idol” judges’ table may be starting to spin out of control. First Simon, then Ellen, and now Kara! Fresh off the heels of Thursday’s shocking news that Ellen DeGeneres would be leaving “Idol” after just one year (read about that here), TMZ reported later in the day that two-season veteran Kara DioGuardi had been fired from the show. No great loss there!

We’re told the show will be going back to a three-judge format and assuming all deals are finalized, the judge’s panel will consist of Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez and Steven Tyler. We’re told the only way Kara could get a reprieve is if the J-Lo deal falls apart — but we’re told that deal is done.

Reps for Lopez and Tyler have not commented as of yet but Fox is expected to announce the makeup of the new “Idol” judges’ panel on Monday at the Television Critics Association event. Not quite sure the J-Lo and Steven Tyler addition is going to work. I’m still crossing my fingers for Jessica Simpson and Bret Michaels!

Jennifer Lopez Replaces Ellen DeGeneres on ‘American Idol’

July 30, 2010 By Crista Webster 1 Comment

Major shake-ups are taking place on ‘American Idol.’ After announcing his return as Executive Producer to the show, Nigel Lythgoe stated he intended on creating major shake-ups with the judges. And he’s delivered.

It seems Ellen DeGeneres has bowed out as judge after only one season and will be replaced by Jennifer Lopez. Lopez, whose music and acting career has hit the skids, is rumored to have been in negotiations to join Idol for over a month. Her former manager, Benny Medina, got the ball rolling for Lopez shortly before she fired him.

Rumors are also flying that Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler has been approached about replacing Simon Cowell who left the show this season.

As for why DeGeneres left, sources say it had to do with Fox’s lack of control over Cowell.

Via Deadline:

“We’re told she wanted off the show two months ago and complained that Idol producers ‘couldn’t control Cowell’, one insider tells us. Least of all Cecile Frot-Coutaz, the CEO of FremantleMedia North America. ‘Cecile is doing X Factor with Simon, so she’s in his back pocket.’ DeGeneres and her reps went in to to see Fox Broadcasting’s Entertainment Chairman Peter Rice and Alternative TV President Mike Darnell and asked to be let out of the year left on her contract. ‘She’s not comfortable. She’s not happy. It’s not been fun.’”

Not to be left out, it appears that Kara DioGuardi may be fired by Lythgoe in an effort to bring the judging panel back down to three.

Obama on ‘The View’ – VIDEO

[President Barak Obama on The View – Video]

President Barak Obama was on The View. This restores a little bit of my faith in him as being brave. Most men would rather go fishing for piranhas using their testicals as bait.

Jake Gyllenhaal’s Weed Habit Caused Reese Witherspoon Split

July 29, 2010 By Cara Harrington 5 Comments

According to new reports, Jake Gyllenhaal is a huge pot smoker and that is what led Reese Witherspoon to break up with him and move on with Jim Toth.

Via J.C.’s Hollywood:

“An acquaintance of Reese and Jake acknowledges that they were very smitten with each other for quite awhile and seemed perfectly matched. Unfortunately, Jake had a habit that Reese could not live with, and he wouldn’t give it up. He smoked way too much. And we’re not talking nicotine here. Not only did it rub Reese the wrong way, but she worried about her children being exposed to his bad habits. So, regretfully, she moved on.”

What I question is the fact that her ex hubby, Ryan Phillippe, was a known pot smoker (see quote from Rolling Stone interview 2006 below) and she tolerated that enough to have two kids with him and nearly 7 years of marriage.

“The ultimate 20-year plan is to be living in the Caribbean, writing, living off the land, eating from the ocean and probably smoking herb.”

Why do hot people do such nasty things?

Levi Johnston Baby Scandal

July 29, 2010 By Holly Stafford Leave a Comment

Just on the heels of Levi Johnston’s engagement announcement (read about that here), another scandal is erupting. If the new reports floating around are true, Johnston could be a baby daddy all over again! And no, this time not to fiance and baby mama Bristol Palin, but to ex-girlfriend Lanesia Garcia. According to the National Enquirer, during his break up Palin he reconnected with his ex and now she’s believes the baby she is about to have just might be Johnston’s. Someone seriously needs to ship a box of condoms to Alaska – asap.

Per FameCrawler:

At the moment, Lanesia is unsure if Levi or one of her other exes is the father.

If there’s one thing you can definitely say about these particular Alaskans, it’s that they sure are fertile. Palin is reportedly furious that Garcia’s pregnancy could derail her camo-entailed wedding plans.

“She just found out about Lanesia’s pregnancy and is freaking out. He told her that getting back with Lanesia wasn’t serious – it was brief, just a fling and ended months ago. But Bristol is questioning the engagement. She’s really jealous. Lanesia’s planning to do a paternity test after the baby is born. She’s extremely embarrassed she doesn’t know who the father is.”

Ya think? I’d be embarrassed too! Does Alaska not teach sex-ed in their schools? I’m thinking that mama Sarah is probably really in a tizzy now. There’s no word from the mother-to-be about the Enquirer’s report, nor comments from Johnston or the Palin camp, so take this with a grain of salt… for now.

Drew Carey has given his body a makeover and dropped nearly 70 lbs. He debuted his slim figure at Wednesday at the 2010 CBS Summer Press Tour Party in Beverly Hills. When asked about his amazing transformation he merely replied: “I got sick of being fat.”

The dieting and exercise started in May according to National Enquirer. Rumors are also swirling that he used a “custom-made appetite suppressant administered by a Hollywood nutritionist.” He basically eats what he wants except donuts. He also works out on his own describing his routine and independent work out.

“There’s nobody really standing over me. I do work with somebody who gives me advice on what to do, how many minutes to run, what my heart rate should be and all that kind of stuff.”

Carey also plans on continuing his weight loss with inspiration…

“My fiancee has a 5-year old, and wow, I’d love to see him graduate. I’d love to be able play with him without getting tired, enjoy my life and watch him grow.”
