Hey Fergie, what you gonna do with all that hunk? |
Lindsay in Wonderland
It's finally happened: the end of an era. It's like watching the Brat Pack crumble. Lindsay Lohan has finally entered rehab.
"I have made a proactive decision to take care of my personal health," Lindsay stated to US Weekly. "I appreciate your well-wishes and ask that you please respect my privacy at this time."
Proactive? Way to plug products in your hour of need. Some reports state that it was an unreciprocated crush on actor James Franco that pushed Lindsay over the edge, and apparently oil heir Brandon Davis is trying to take credit, as well.
However, I'm following the story that gives kudos to a lowly record producer. Legend has it that after a night of partying with Paris, Brandon and Lindsay, and watching the sheer excess in which the trio indulged, music producer Scott Storch (who's delusional enough to think that Lindsay would make a good recording artist) confronted Lindsay and Brandon both about their lifestyles. He offered to drive them to rehab. Brandon backed out at the last minute, yet Lindsay sojourned on.
Already, doctors at the Laurel Canyon-based Wonderland rehab center are getting to work on Lindsay: She's barred from attending the premiere of her own movie.
Oh, to be a fly on the wall of those group therapy meetings. I bet her downfall started on the set of "The Parent Trap" when Dennis Quaid used to let her swig whisky to take the edge off of such a demanding role.
From 'Vegas' to Europe?
Wife-a-licious? According to Life & Style magazine, " Las Vegas" actor and all-around hottie Josh Duhamel is making arrangements to be wifed-up with his girlfriend, Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas.
Allegedly, Josh proposed right before Christmas and Fergie accepted. But the couple is refusing to confirm the public's suspicion, and Fergie has taken to hiding her 4-carat diamond engagement ring when in public.
According to friends, the couple just wants to set a wedding date before making the big announcement, and is considering summer of 2008 in Europe.
Shreked relationshipHollywood relationships are so boring, but the breakups are absolutely fascinating! It's like watching National Geographic.
Tension rose at the Golden Globe after-parties, where Justin Timberlake flexed his "alpha dog" muscles and successfully flirted with every hot actress in sight while brutally rebuffing all of Cameron 's attempts at conversation. (Rightfully so: Her dress was hideous! A broken heart does not mean you have a broken mirror.)
To get revenge, Cameron has started shacking up with surf god Kelly Slater . The two were spotted getting cozy over dinner and later surfing the waves of the North Shore.
Obviously, this is just a rebound tryst, but Cam has gotten the upper hand by showing that she's the first to move on.
This means that there will be all sorts of scandal as the two hook up all over town in order to outdo the other. The chess pieces are in play.
Gays' authority
There's definitely an air of awkward discomfort on the "Grey's Anatomy" set. According to a local radio station, actor Isaiah Washington met with GLAAD leaders following his recent homophobic remarks on the set.
The whole issue blew up at the Golden Globes, when Isaiah publicly denied using "the f-word" toward out-and-proud gay co-star T.R. Knight . Other members of the cast called him out on it, and due to ABC's mishandling of the entire situation, the issue became a big
GLAAD has stepped in to do damage control, but some people aren't having it. Famous bloggers like Perez Hilton have vowed to keep harping on the issue till Isaiah's character is killed off. And thus comes a hard-learned lesson in life: Do not mess with the Gay Mafia. Those kids have clout.
