Lohan Drops Out Of Movie
Don't say Lindsay Lohan will ever let work get in the way of her partying. A rep for the actress says she's decided to pass on a role in the upcoming film "The Best Time of Our Lives" starring Keira Knightley. Lohan was supposed to start filming on April 21, but her reps weren't able to work out an agreeable contract with the film's producers. Oh well. That leaves more time for her to party and pose for men's magazines such as Nylon. She's on the cover of this month's issue.
Trump's Underwear Caper
Donald Trump and Rosie O'Donnell's public feud has reignited and it feels so...desperate. Donald recently got his mitts on some provocative bondage gear Ro wore in the 1994 S&M-comedy bomb Exit to Eden, via a fan. Don then sent said undergarment to Barbara Walters, Rosie's boss at The View. He explained his action to the New York Post: "I sent it to Barbara to hang in her office because I didn't want it in mine. It was funny, except that it was really gross. It's disgusting."
Paris, Nicole Give Campers Enemas
Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie sat down together with members of the media to promote the latest season of their reality series "The Simple Life." After famously feuding and filming their parts separately last season, the celebutantes reunite as camp counselors for the show's fifth installment, which premieres May 28 on E! Their task? Leading campers through fitness sessions, couples counseling, drama lessons and beauty-pageant preparations — and surviving without cell phones. While the girls didn't want to talk about their checkered driving records or Richie's recent dizzy spells, they were more than willing to share about performing a certain rectal procedure. "We gave the campers enemas," Richie told an interviewer. "We did it outside, so that was a lot of fun. It probably wasn't that fun for (the campers), but it was definitely interesting. It was something that I never thought I would do before."
Avril Pays $9.5-Million For Bel-Air House
Singer Avril Lavigne must be doing pretty well for herself. The Canadian pop star and her rocker husband Deryck Whibley have paid $9.5-million for a house in the upscale Los Angeles neighborhood of Bel-Air. The eight bedroom home was the set for MTV's Meet the Barkers reality show, and boasts 10 1/2 bathrooms, an elevator, a steam shower, sauna, pool, spa and ten-car garage. Her new cd "The Best Damn Thing" drops later this month.
"Blades" Slices Up "Grindhouse"
The Quentin Tarantino three-hour double-feature "Grindhouse" was no match for the Will Ferrell comedy "Blades of Glory" at the box office this weekend. For the second week in a row, the figure-skating flick glided to box office gold, raking in an estimated $23-million. The heavily-hyped "Grindhouse" pic featuring Rose McGowan and Rosario Dawson came in fourth, falling short of expectations with just $11.6-million in ticket sales. "Meet the Robinsons" and Ice Cube's "Are We Done Yet?" came in at 2 and 3.
New Shows Die An Early Death
It seems network executives don't want to give new dramas a chance anymore. Several new shows have already been cut by the networks, after just a few airings. Say good-bye to FOX's "Wedding Bells" and "The Winner," ABC's "Six Degrees," and "The Black Donnellys" (probably the best of the crop), over on NBC. While execs say most of the series are on "hiatus," most observers agree they probably won't be back. It's really disappointing to see NBC pull the plug on "Donnellys" because it was a well-produced show, did relatively well in its time slot for NBC and had a good lead-in with "Deal or No Deal." Instead of giving it a chance, NBC opted to replace it with the cheap and utterly moronic "Thank God You're Here," whatever that is. Good luck NBC with that decision. That's why you're usually Number 3 or 4 in the ratings.
Johnson Wins Masters
Zach Johnson proved Sunday that Augusta National can still find room for a regular guy among all their giants. Johnson lifted the quality of his game above more accomplished players like Retief Goosen, Stuart Appleby and four-time champion Tiger Woods to win the Masters. Johnson's final-round 69 was good enough to beat that trio by two strokes and produce his first major championship.
Rose, Rosario Go Nude For Rolling Stone
Rosario Dawson and Rose McGowan have decided to bare all on the cover of rock magazine Rolling Stone - wearing nothing but bullet belts. The sexy ladies are co-stars in Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez's new Grindhouse double-bill, which the magazine has dubbed "the most violent chick flick ever made". Dawson reveals tiny McGowan had to stand on a box to make sure her bottom touched her co-star's. She says, "She actually had to be on an apple box to make sure that our butts touched and our shoulders touched."
102-Year-Old Woman Gets Hole In One
For Elsie McLean, her years on the golf course finally paid off. At 102, she recently set a new world record when she became the oldest woman, or man, to hit a hole in one. Following the achievement, Elsie remarked, "I said, 'Oh my Lord. It can't be true. It can't be true.' I was so excited. And the girls were absolutely overcome. And so was I." Elsie has been golfing since her 20s and has even been featured in Golfers Digest. She was invited to appear on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," but declined.
Lily Allen Blasts Bush During Concert
British singer Lily Allen reportedly launched an astonishing drunken rant during a concert in San Diego calling George W Bush an "a**hole" and claiming she is "probably bisexual". The 21-year-old turned angry after guzzling beer and cider onstage during her performance at the city's House of Blues last week. She said, "George Bush is an a**hole and a c**t" before also directing her vitriol at Tony Blair. Allen then claimed she was bisexual because she was sick of men with "tiny d**s", reports British newspaper The Sun. A concert-goer tells the newspaper, "Lily got really drunk on stage. "She then started calling Bush names and the audience went a bit quiet. She also said that San Diego has the best crack whores she has ever seen and that she was thinking of becoming a lesbian."
Halle Berry To Shave Locks For New Movie
