HOLLYWOOD DIRT OVERFLOW (07-09-10)

LINDSAY LOHAN LUNACY

LINDSAY LOHAN'S ATTORNEY SAYS LINDSAY'S SENTENCE IS UNFAIR . . . THEN QUITS:

LINDSAY LOHAN'S attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, went off yesterday about how unfair Lindsay's sentence was. Then she QUIT. --Lindsay's now-EX-attorney said, quote, "Ms. Lohan and I are extremely disappointed in the sentence handed down by Judge Revel. We believe that the penalty is far harsher than what others would have received under similar circumstances. --"The reality is that Ms. Lohan, like most defendants, had to balance work commitments with court requirements. --"To be punished so severely for doing so, particularly in light of the fact that she substantially complied with each of her probationary conditions, is harsh and unfair. --"That said, Ms. Lohan is prepared to serve her jail time and to comply with the Court's orders." --Holley also thinks it's uncool that a courtroom camera zoomed in on the "(Eff) U" that was stenciled on Lindsay's fingernail during Tuesday's court hearing. --She said, quote, "The fact is, the words could barely be seen by the naked eye. --"That a courtroom camera, purportedly there to accurately chronicle the proceedings, would use a telephoto lens to zoom in as it did to Ms. Lohan's fingernail is a commentary on the entire issue." (--Holley did not comment on why she dropped Lindsay as a client.)


LINDSAY LOHAN THINKS HER HUMAN RIGHTS WERE VIOLATED:

LINDSAY LOHAN'S former attorney isn't the only one who thinks a 90-day prison sentence was harsh. Lindsay herself considers it a VIOLATION OF HER HUMAN RIGHTS. (!!!) Lindsay dropped this little nugget on Twitter yesterday . . . --Quote, "It is clearly stated in Article 5 of the U.N. Universal Declaration of Human Rights that . . . No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment." --Lindsay plans to appeal the sentence with her new lawyer, Tiffany Feder-Cohen. (--Quick question: Is Lindsay developing a fetish for professional women with three names? Discuss.) --Meanwhile . . . it turns out that Lindsay had a birthday bash scheduled for WEDNESDAY night, not Tuesday, as we'd previously heard. But she didn't attend. --It was supposed to be held at a Hollywood club called Las Palmas, where she's friends with the owners. --But earlier in the day, a friend of Lindsay's Tweeted that she wasn't going to make it, and that she was, quote, "at home with friends and family." --One of those "friends" was KIM KARDASHIAN . . . who showed up at Lindsay's with Chinese takeout.


LINDSAY LOHAN WON'T BE ABLE TO SMOKE IN JAIL:

Obviously, this isn't the only reason LINDSAY LOHAN is dreading going to prison . . . but it's got to be a big one: There's NO SMOKING. --In fact, the place where Lindsay will be doing her time doesn't even allow inmates to use nicotine patches or gum. Lindsay is a two-pack-a-day smoker, and she's expected to do at least 23 days of her 90-day sentence. --In other words, that's going to SUCK for her. (--Lindsay also won't be able to wear makeup or hair extensions.)


DID LINDSAY LOHAN TRY TO TAMPER WITH HER SCRAM BRACELET???

TMZ says that "sources" connected with the LINDSAY LOHAN case claim that Lindsay tried to tamper with her SCRAM bracelet on two occasions. --Supposedly, she put something between the bracelet and her skin to keep it from detecting alcohol in her system. -The first time was last month after the "MTV Movie Awards" . . . when it was widely reported that the bracelet sent an alert. The second time was a few days later. --Before she quit working for Lindsay, attorney Shawn Chapman Holley denied this. --She said, quote, "There are a number of people who were with her who could attest to the fact that she never tampered with her bra celet and there are well-documented problems with the SCRAM bracelet and the accuracy of its readings." (--I find it almost impossible to believe Lindsay would try to tamper with the bracelet, when she was obviously told that doing so would SET IT OFF. How could she NOT know that??? Everybody else on Earth knew it.) (--Then again, Lindsay seems to be a compulsive liar . . . and a really bad one at that. She's the type who'll walk right up and punch you in the face, then offer to help you find the guy who did it.)


A NEW LINDSAY LOHAN SONG HAS LEAKED, CALLED "TOO YOUNG TO DIE":

A LINDSAY LOHAN track hit the web yesterday, appropriately titled "Too Young to Die". There's no word when she recorded it or where it was originally supposed to end up. (--You can check it out here . . .)
http://perezhilton.com/2010-07-08-lindsay-leaks-autobiographical-lohan-song-released-too-young-to-die
(--For the record, all the death talk in the song seems to be a metaphor for getting into a bad relationship. It's not about partying too hard or anything like that.)


DOES LINDSAY WANT $1 MILLION FOR AN INTERVIEW???

There might actually be an upside to LINDSAY LOHAN'S prison sentence. She may be worth a little more to the media. So-called "sources" say Lindsay hopes to snag $1 million for her first post-prison interview. --One of those sources says, quote, "Expect to see a major TV and magazine deal. Lindsay might have made a lot of mistakes, but she knows how much her first interview is worth. She won't even consider offers of less than $1 million."


JOHNNY DEPP'S GIRLFRIEND SAYS THEIR RELATIONSHIP WORKS BECAUSE THEY SPEND SO MUCH TIME APART:

Yesterday, we heard ANGELINA JOLIE say that one of the things that keeps her relationship with BRAD PITT strong is the fact that they're never apart for more than three days --Well, for JOHNNY DEPP and VANESSA PARADIS, it appears that the opposite is true. -Vanessa and Johnny have been together since 1998, and they have two kids . . . a 10-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son. --And Vanessa says, quote, "The fact that we're not together every day plays a big part in keeping our relationship stable. We also have a lot of respect and admiration for one another. --"We understand that, if we want our relationship to continue, we must give each other space, allow each other to go off on our own, and trust each other. --"Not everyone is lucky enough to be given space and trust. You're really lucky if you find someone you can trust when you spend time apart."


LARRY KING AND HIS WIFE ARE OFFICIALLY *NOT* DIVORCING ANYMORE:

This is bad news for the baseball coach: LARRY KING and his wife Shawn are officially not divorcing anymore. They filed petitions on Wednesday to DISMISS their divorce case. (--They had both filed for divorce about three months ago.)



SOPHIE MONK ACTUALLY WALKED IN ON HER BOYFRIEND IN BED WITH ANOTHER CHICK:

Walking in on your partner when they're in bed with someone else seems like one of those movie cliches that doesn't actually happen in real life. But model (slash) actress SOPHIE MONK says it really did happen to her. --Sophie says she walked in on her boyfriend, a surgeon named John Diaz, in bed with another woman recently. Her first reaction was to get in her car and take off. But then she turned around and went back . . . to talk. --She says, quote, "I walked back in and went, 'What's going on?' and actually had a conversation. I spoke to the girl. She was in shock. I didn't know her. She was innocent." --Then, to get back at Diaz, she says, quote, "I spilt coffee on his car very strategically." --They're not together anymore, for obvious reasons.


THE COPS MAY SUSPECT THAT MEL GIBSON'S EX IS ONLY IN IT FOR THE MONEY:

Police are investigating OKSANA GRIGORIEVA'S claim that MEL GIBSON roughed her up. But TMZ says that behind the scenes, the cops are suspicious that Oksana is making it all up for money and legal leverage. --Supposedly, Oksana tried to get money from Mel in return for those tapes she made back in February of him ranting and using racial slurs. --Suspiciously, the attack allegedly happened in January. But Oksana didn't come forward with these allegations until after her attempt to squeeze Mel for cash failed . . . and after she and Mel started having issues over the custody of their daughter.


NOW, MEL GIBSON IS ACCUSED OF USING THE TERM "WETBACKS":

(--CAREFUL, JEDIS . . . This story contains the term "wetbacks" . . . which is a derogatory word for Mexicans . . .)
MEL GIBSON is being accused of using yet another racial slur. In the now-infamous audiotape of Mel's rantings and ravings that his ex, OKSANA GRIGORIEVA, made, Mel allegedly uses the term "Wetbacks" to refer to Mexicans. -Supposedly, he's talking about turning a worker over to immigration authorities, and he said, quote, "I will report her to the (effing) people that take (effing) money from the wetbacks." --For those of you don't know, "wetbacks" is a slam on Mexicans . . . and, technically, other nationalities south of our border . . . because they have been known to swim to get into the U.S. illegally.


MELISSA ETHERIDGE'S EX IS GOING FOR FULL CUSTODY OF THE KIDS:

The breakup of MELISSA ETHERIDGE and TAMMY LYNN MICHAELS was already pretty ugly . . . but yesterday, it got uglier. Tammy is going for full custody of their 3-year-old twins. --Tammy has filed "dissolution of marriage" papers . . . even though she and Melissa weren't technically married. --And in those papers, she's asking for physical AND legal custody, with visitation for Melissa. She also wants spousal support. --Last week, Melissa filed HER papers to dissolve the relationship, and asked for JOINT legal and physical custody. (--Tammy gave birth to the twins, with the help of a sperm donor whose identity remains a mystery to the rest of us.) (--Melissa also has two kids with her previous partner, Julie Cypher. Again, it was Julie who did the birthing. The donor in that case was the unbelievably sexy DAVID CROSBY.)


DREW BARRYMORE WON'T RULE OUT PLASTIC SURGERY:

DREW BARRYMORE isn't really interested in plastic surgery right now . . . but she's smart enough not to rule it out. Especially in an age when everything you say can come back to haunt you. --She tells the new issue of "Elle" magazine, quote, "I don't think I'll do anything, but if I want to do something, I will." --But she adds, quote, "There's no reason to be afraid of aging, because if you age, you're lucky! The alternative is death."


BETTY WHITE WILL HAVE HER OWN CALENDAR NEXT YEAR:

The Year of BETTY WHITE continues. In September, you'll be able to purchase the 2011 Betty White CALENDAR. (???) --It'll cost $12.99, with proceeds going to the Morris Animal Foundation. And some of the pictures will feature Betty posing with SEXY, SHIRTLESS MEN.


LEBRON JAMES IS GOING TO THE MIAMI HEAT . . . AND THE OWNER OF THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS IS PISSED:

LEBRON JAMES made his big announcement last night: He's signing with the Miami Heat and leaving the Cleveland Cavaliers. It's a big deal to Cleveland, because LeBron was born and raised in Ohio, and signed with the Cavs out of high school in 2003. --But it's not just the fans who are pissed: Cavs majority owner Dan Gilbert posted a ridiculously over-the-top rant on NBA.com, in which he GUARANTEED the Cavaliers would win an NBA Championship before LeBron and the Heat did. --He blasted LeBron pretty hard, too. He accused LeBron of betraying Cleveland, called his announcement last night NARCISSISTIC and SELF-PROMOTIONAL, and said that any team LeBron plays for is now CURSED because of what LeBron did. --Quote, "The self-declared former 'King' will be taking the 'curse' with him down south. And until he does 'right' by Cleveland and Ohio, James (and the town where he plays) will unfortunately own this dreaded spell and bad karma. Just watch." --He added, quote, "Some people think they should go to heaven but NOT have to die to get there. Sorry, but that's simply not how it works. --"This shocking act of disloyalty from our home grown 'chosen one' sends the exact opposite lesson of what we would want our children to learn. And 'who' we would want them to grow-up to become."
(--You can read the entire rant here . . .)

WILL YOU PAY MONEY TO SEE 8 MORE MINUTES OF "AVATAR"???

It looks like JAMES CAMERON has spent some time at the George Lucas School of Marketing. --First, he released a completely bare-bones DVD of "Avatar", and promised that a cooler, more extensive version would come later. It'll probably be out in November, just in time for Christmas. --Now, he's putting "Avatar" back in theaters on August 27th . . . with EIGHT MORE WHOLE MINUTES of footage. --According to a press release, those eight minutes will include, quote, "new creatures and action scenes." --Cameron says, quote, "Audiences repeatedly told me they wanted more of Pandora, and wished they could have stayed there longer. So we're making that possible." --By the way . . . this extended version of "Avatar" is only being released in 3-D.


SYLVESTER STALLONE ADMITS HE MADE "ROCKY 5" FOR THE MONEY:

SYLVESTER STALLONE probably wouldn't be upset if you told him that "Rocky 5" sucked. Because he agrees. And he fully admits he did it for the money. --He says, quote, "I'm greedy, what can I tell you? It was a mistake because the audience didn't want to see the downside of the character. They wanted him to remain on top. I should have known that. I fell into a sense of self-parody." --Another movie Sly isn't particularly proud of? The 1992 "comedy" "Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot", co-starring "Golden Girl" ESTELLE GETTY. --He says, quote, "If you ever want someone to confess to murder, just make him or her sit through that film. They will confess to anything after 15 minutes!"


RANDY QUAID STILL MAKES OVER $500,000 A YEAR IN RESIDUALS:

RANDY QUAID may be a little crazy and unemployable these days, but don't feel too bad for him. He still makes more than HALF A MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR in residuals from his old movies, including the "Vacation" flicks. --We know this because a judge recently ordered his income to be garnished in order to pay $12,000 in back wages he owes to a private investigator. (--That's right: Randy makes more than 500-grand a year . . . without doing ANYTHING.)
HERE'S THE PLOT FOR "A VERY HAROLD & KUMAR CHRISTMAS":

We have some plot details for the third "Harold & Kumar" movie, "A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas". Here's the deal . . . --It takes place six years after the events of the last flick, "Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay". Harold and Kumar are estranged, and have, quote, "very different families." --But one day, Kumar arrives on Harold's doorstep with a, quote, "mysterious package in hand." (--There's no word what's in that package.) Somehow, he ends up burning down Harold's father-in-law's Christmas tree. --Apparently, the guy loves the tree, because Harold and Kumar then have to run all over New York City looking for the perfect replacement. And, of course, they get into all manner of trouble along the way. --Here's the best part: NEIL PATRICK HARRIS WILL BE BACK!!! --The last time we saw Neil, in "Guantanamo Bay", he had been GUNNED DOWN by a madam outside a brothel after he BRANDED one of her whores. (!!!) But I am happy to report that he did indeed survive. (--"A Very Harold & Kumar Christmas" is due out in 2011. At Christmastime, we assume.)


THE 2010 EMMY NOMINEES

THE 2010 EMMY NOMINEES HAVE BEEN ANNOUNCED:

The nominees for "The 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards" were announced yesterday. This year, two new shows ("Glee" and "Modern Family"), and a couple of Emmy favorites ("Mad Men" and "30 Rock") were SHOWERED with love. --"Glee" led all regular series with 19 nominations, which was only surpassed by HBO's World War Two miniseries, "The Pacific". It received 24 nominations. --"Mad Men" . . . the AMC show that RULED last year's Emmy Awards . . . was second with 17 nominations. It was followed by "30 Rock", which scored 15 of its own. (--"30 Rock" led everyone with 22 nominations last year.) --And ABC's excellent new sitcom, "Modern Family", was fourth with 14 nominations. --"Glee", "Modern Family" and "30 Rock" are all up for Outstanding Comedy Series this year, alongside "Curb Your Enthusiasm", "Nurse Jackie", and "The Office". --"Man Men" was nominated for Outstanding Drama Series. It's up against "Lost", "True Blood", "Breaking Bad", "Dexter", and "The Good Wife". --By the way, "The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien" was nominated in the Outstanding Variety, Music or Comedy Series category. --That's a fun slap at NBC. And even better . . . JAY LENO wasn't nominated. Yesterday, Conan joked, quote, "Congrats to my staff on 4 Emmy nominations. This bodes well for the future of 'The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien'." (--Conan, of course, will host a new show on TBS, starting in November.) --Here's another amusing comment: Neil Patrick Harris, who was nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for "How I Met Your Mother" . . . AND Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series for "Glee" . . . said this: --Quote, "They announce the nominations so early in the morning, that this year I just stayed up all night and had an Emmy rave. So I must say, I'm deeply honored to be nominated, and also, my hair feels so amazing!" --88-year-old entertainment juggernaut Betty White . . . who already has six Emmys . . . was nominated for Outstanding Guest Actress for her hosting gig on "Saturday Night Live" back in May. --Here's the network breakdown: HBO led all networks with 101 nominations. ABC had the most among the broadcast networks with 63 nominations, followed by CBS (57), NBC (48) and Fox (47). --"The 62nd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards" will air live Sunday, August 29th on NBC, beginning at 8:00 P.M.

She isn't expected back on the set until September. (--It's unclear how often she'll be appearing remotely from now until then.) --When Barbara announced the surgery in May, she said, quote, "You know how healthy I have been . . . never missed a day's work. [But] I've known of this condition for a while, and my doctors and I have decided that this is the best time to do [it]."

He's in great spirits. I love Lil Wayne . . . that's like my little brother. He's just the coolest dude on Earth. --"I tell you one thing, him not being high made me realize how much funnier he is. This guy has jokes. We were up in there for four hours, just telling jokes, dying laughing, falling on the floor. --"He's a beautiful dude. He did what he did. He had a gun on him, but people don't really know how much of a great father that he is, great of a person he is, a friend, a loyal dude.

NAZZY’S RANDOM STUFF

THE MAJORITY OF WOMEN SAY THAT CHORES ARE THE MOST SEDUCTIVE THING A GUY CAN DO:

Good news and bad news here. The good news: You don't need to spend a DIME to impress your woman . . . no chocolates, no flowers, no expensive romantic dinner. The bad news: You WILL have to actually figure out where the mop, ironing board and dishwashing soap are. --According to a survey by the University of Lancaster in England, the majority of women say a man doing CHORES is the biggest turn on . . . ahead of trips, dinners, chocolate and flowers. --The authors say the survey shows that women want a man who's willing to be more active around the house . . . and for a lot of women, that comes before every other romantic gesture. (News.com.au)


MORE AND MORE COUPLES ARE GETTING MARRIED AT RETAIL STORES AND CHAIN RESTAURANTS:

Nothing says "romantic wedding" like getting married at a Taco Bell: According to Rebecca Dolgin, who runs the wedding website TheKnot.com, more and more couples today are getting married at retail stores and chain restaurants. --She says they're seeing a growing number of people choosing places like T.J. Maxx, Home Depot, Taco Bell, Wal-Mart, and Cold Stone as the site of their wedding. --Rebecca says there are usually two main factors: One, the couple either works for the place or just LOVES shopping or eating there. And two, quote, "Brides are obsessed with making their wedding different from anyone else's." (USA Today)

A MAN HOLDS HIS MOM HOSTAGE AT GUNPOINT FOR REFUSING TO IRON HIS CLOTHES:

We ALWAYS preach that you should treat your mother with a never-ending amount of love, reverence, and respect . . . because you can't even BEGIN to comprehend all the sacrifices she's made for you. --This is pretty much the opposite. --Last week, 29-year-old Robert Edward Tyrrell Junior of Villa Rica, Georgia, held his own mother HOSTAGE at GUNPOINT . . . because she refused to iron his clothes. --According to Sergeant Marc Griffith of the Carroll County Sheriff's Office, quote, "He wanted her to do some ironing and when she said 'no' they got into an argument. He told her 'ironing is woman's work.'" --Then, he pulled out a gun and took his mother's cell phone and car keys. He held her hostage for six hours until, finally, she was able to escape from the house and get to the police station. --Robert was arrested and charged with aggravated assault and false imprisonment. (Atlanta Journal-Constitution)


A MAN AND WOMAN ARE ARRESTED FOR TAKING LSD AND BRAWLING . . . ALL WHILE THEIR NEWBORN WAS IN NEO-NATAL INTENSIVE CARE:

Quick question for you. You and your boyfriend or girlfriend just had a baby, and he's in the neo-natal intensive care unit at the hospital, struggling to survive. How do you handle the situation? --Do you, A: Hold a vigil at the hospital, frantically trying to get updates and info from any and every doctor in sight? --Or do you choose option B: Drink some tequila, take a bunch of LSD, and get into a street fight with each other? --19-year-olds Adoniyah Israel and Donna Sweet of Ocala, Florida, chose option B. --Earlier this week, police were called to break up a fight between Israel and Sweet in the middle of the street. When they tried to diffuse the situation, the couple took swings at them, cursed them out, and tried to run away. --Israel and Sweet had just had a baby, but he was in the NICU at the hospital at the University of Florida in Gainesville. So they left the hospital, took LSD, drank tequila and ended up getting physically violent with each other in the street. --As a result, they were taken to jail . . . the police alerted the Florida Department of Children and Families about the baby . . . and the baby is now doing well.

FIVE IDEAS FOR A *NAKED* DATE:

If things have been getting a little boring in the bedroom lately, you might want to spice things up with a "naked date." It's exactly what it sounds like: A 'date night' with your significant other that doesn't involve clothing. Here are five ways to do it.

#1.) MASSAGE. Spread a sheet or a towel on your bed and give each other massages. But you have to really do it up: Oils, candles, music . . . the whole deal.

#2.) PHOTO SESSION. Break out the digital camera and spend the night posing for each other. Or, if you're a wanna-be artist, pick up some art supplies. It doesn't matter if you've never done drawing or photography before. The point is to be naked together.

#3.) SKINNY DIPPING. If you have a pool, then you're already set. Otherwise, you're going to have to get creative and be a little sneaky. But that just adds to the experience.

#4.) BUBBLE BATH. If your bathtub at home isn't exactly sexy, book a hotel room with a nice bathroom, pick up some champagne, and you're set. Two words: Hotel sex.
#5.) STRIP CHESS. Chess sounds like a boring date . . . but not if it's strip chess. The rules go like this: Pawns don't count . . . and for every other piece you capture, your opponent removes one article of clothing. (Ask Men)
