HOLLYWOOD DIRT OVERFLOW (08-05-10)

HERE ARE SOME MORE SEXY PICS OF LINDSAY LOHAN:

Apparently, LINDSAY LOHAN spent a lot of time before she went up the river posing NEARLY NUDE. A new set of photos she did for fashion designer Marc Ecko hit the web yesterday. --They include shots of Lindsay trying to look sexy in a ski mask . . . and kind of succeeding.

MARY-KATE OLSEN SAYS SHE USED TO BE A "LITTLE MONKEY PERFORMER":

MARY-KATE OLSEN says some interesting things about her career in the new issue of "Marie Claire" magazine. She says she and her sister ASHLEY were, quote, "little monkey performers" when they were kids. --She adds, quote, "I look at old photos of me, and I don't feel connected to them at all. I would never wish my upbringing on anyone, but I wouldn't take it back for the world."


JULIA ROBERTS WON'T GET BOTOX . . . BECAUSE SHE WANTS HER KIDS TO SEE HER EXPRESSIONS:

JULIA ROBERTS is 42 and not interested in Botox . . . because of her kids. --She says, quote, "I want my kids to know when I'm pissed, when I'm happy and when I'm confounded. Your face tells a story and it shouldn't be a story about your drive to the doctor's office." --She adds, quote, "It's unfortunate that we live in such a panicked, dysmorphic society where women don't even give themselves a chance to see what they'll look like as older persons. I want to have some idea of what I'll look like before I start cleaning the slates."


FORMER UFC STAR ROGER HUERTA TOOK A GUY OUT FOR HITTING A WOMAN:

MMA star ROGER HUERTA . . . who used to be a pretty big star in the UFC . . . unleashed fists of fury upon a guy outside of a bar in Austin, Texas this past weekend. -But the dude had it coming . . . because he'd just punched a woman in the head. --The chaos went down at about 2:00 A.M. Saturday morning. Roger saw the guy hit the girl . . . and he did not hesitate to REGULATE. --Police were called, but nobody's been arrested yet. (--Here's a video . . . which contains a fair amount of BLEEPED PROFANITY . . .)
http://www.tmz.com/videos?autoplay=true&mediaKey=06122435-fea9-4358-91eb-330a87db4f24
--UFC President DANA WHITE approves. He says, quote, "In no way do I condone street fighting, but when a guy puts his hands on a woman he deserves to be knocked the (eff) out. Good for Roger."


THE STARS REACT TO YESTERDAY'S RULING ON GAY MARRIAGE IN CALIFORNIA:

Yesterday, a federal judge overturned California's ban on gay marriage. And the stars . . . both gay and straight . . . were quick to react. Here's what they had to say . . . (--A lot of these are Twitter messages . . . hence the bad punctuation . . .)

--ELLEN DEGENERES: "This just in: Equality Won!"

--Her wife, PORTIA DE ROSSI, added, quote, "I am ecstatic that proposition 8 has been overturned in the state of California. This is an incredibly exciting and historical day and a big step towards equal rights for all."

--KIM KARDASHIAN: "Prop 8 was struck down! This news is amazing!!!! Its about time! Congrats to everyone!"

--RICKY MARTIN: "YEAHHHHH!!!!! #prop8unconstitutional Moving Forward!!!!!!!!"

--OLIVIA MUNN: "Prop 8 Overturned!!! Equal rights for everyone! Nice to be out of the 1950s."

--ADAM LAMBERT: "We're gonna throw glitter on this barn tonight!!!"

--LANCE BASS: "Congrats on the overturning of Prop 8!!!!"

--PARIS HILTON: "What a huge historical day for equal rights in this country! They finally overturned Prop 8! There shouldn't be a law on true love. :)"

--KAL PENN: "Prop 8 ruled unconstitutional! Finally, pedophiles can marry their dogs. Just kidding. Props to CA for standing up for family values for all!"

--"Star Trek" stud GEORGE TAKEI had this message for all those Prop 8 supporters still out there . . . quote, "Mind your own marriage."

--Meanwhile, Governor ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER released a statement saying, quote, "Today's decision is by no means California's first milestone, nor our last, on America's road to equality and freedom for all people."


WYCLEF JEAN WILL INDEED RUN FOR PRESIDENT OF HAITI:

WYCLEF JEAN hasn't officially announced yet that he's running for president of Haiti. But he spoke to "Time" magazine about his upcoming campaign . . . and he let them film the conversation and post it on their website. So I'd say it's a done deal.
(--You can check out the video here . . .)
http://www.time.com/time/video/player/0,32068,396329925001_2008595,00.html

(--The election takes place on November 28th. Wyclef is expected to make the official, public announcement tonight.)


CHECK OUT VIDEO OF KATIE COURIC IN 2008, MAKING FUN OF THE NAMES OF SARAH PALIN'S SONS:

KATIE COURIC and SARAH PALIN kind of became enemies during the 2008 presidential campaign, when Katie asked Sarah what newspapers and magazines she read to keep up on the news, and Sarah couldn't name a single one. --Well, several weeks before that interview took place, Katie was doing the "CBS Evening News" live from the Republican National Convention. And some footage of her rehearsing for one of her broadcasts hit the web yesterday. --The video shows Katie preparing to do a biographical piece on Sarah. And after she reads off the names of Sarah's sons, Trig and Track, she says, quote, "Where the hell do they get these names?"
--In another part of the piece, Katie mentions that Sarah's parents were out hunting caribou when they found out their daughter was chosen as JOHN MCCAIN'S running mate. --After reading that line, Katie says, quote, "I can't make this stuff up!"
(--You can check out the video at the link below. It also includes Katie asking for the correct pronunciation of "Wasilla" . . .)

IS JILLIAN MICHAELS ENDORSING A "POTENTIALLY LETHAL" DIET???

"Biggest Loser" minx JILLIAN MICHAELS can kill with her sexiness . . . or, apparently, with the questionable diet products she's endorsing. --Jillian has been hit with a multi-million dollar lawsuit over her detox supplement that allegedly, quote, "might kill you." (!!!) (--Jillian, as you may know, has been accused of promoting potentially dangerous diet products in the past.) --A woman known only as "R.D." filed the lawsuit. (--She does not want her full name out there because of a, quote, "very real fear of retaliation or harassment by [the] Defendants.") She's seeking more than $10 million in damages. --This R.D. chick claims Jillian's Triple Process Total Body Detox & Cleanse diet supplement contains, quote, a "potentially lethal combination of toxic ingredients." --Those ingredients include "Irish Moss Powder" . . . which the suit says, quote, "causes gastrointestinal ulcers [and is] so toxic that it is the gel commonly applied to aircraft wings to dissolve ice." --Another ingredient is "Yarrow," which is supposedly, quote, "a toxic lawn weed that causes dermatitis" . . . and "Bearberry," which R.D. says causes nausea and vomiting. And it goes on and on from there. --Jillian's camp hasn't responded to this suit.


"INCEPTION" HAS MADE $200 MILLION AT THE BOX OFFICE:

Deadline.com reports that "Inception" crossed the $200 million mark on Tuesday night. In 19 days, it has grossed $201.7 million. (--That sounds great, and it IS, but that's what it took for the movie just to break even. IMDB.com says "Inception" had an estimated budget of $200 million.)


AEROSMITH FOUND OUT THAT STEVEN TYLER WAS IN THE RUNNING FOR THE "AMERICAN IDOL" GIG VIA THE INTERNET:

You'd think that AEROSMITH singer STEVEN TYLER would check with the band before entering negotiations to replace SIMON COWELL on "American Idol" . . . especially considering the tenuous state of the band these days. --But that was NOT the case. Guitarist JOE PERRY said he found out about all this just like the rest of us did . . . by reading about it online. --Joe tells the "Boston Herald", quote, "I found out on the Internet. There was an Aerosmith after-party at Studio 54 after the Vegas show [last weekend] . . . which none of us in the band knew anything about . . . and he said some stuff there. --"I mean, this is no small thing." (--At that after-party, Steven said his future plans include, quote, "recording an album . . . and [I'm] probably going to be judge on 'American Idol'. I'm doing it. What do you think? I'm doing it.") --And Joe doesn't sound like he's thrilled to be left in the dark . . . quote, "I mean, after working with me for 40 years, he couldn't tell me about this. Why so secretive? We're told it's a done deal. --"If Steven is committed to a TV show, that kind of affects the rest of us. We'd like to plan our lives, ya know?" (--Joe says that he asked Steven about it . . . but Steven said that he was "instructed not to talk about it.")


NIGEL LYTHGOE *IS* RETURNING TO "AMERICAN IDOL":

It's official: Former "American Idol" executive producer NIGEL LYTHGOE . . . who's also the lead judge on "So You Think You Can Dance" . . . WILL be returning to his post on "Idol". (--He left "Idol" two years ago.) --This isn't a huge, awesome surprise . . . (--if you even care in the first place.) We've heard this would be happening for a few weeks now, but now it's a done deal.


THE COP FROM THE VILLAGE PEOPLE HAS A SHOT AT BEING ONE OF THE NEW JUDGES ON "AMERICAN IDOL"!!!

VICTOR WILLIS . . . the original cop from the VILLAGE PEOPLE . . . may be powdering his nose again, because he's somehow under the impression that he's a candidate to replace SIMON COWELL on "American Idol". -Victor says that he recently had a meeting with the higher-ups at "Idol" . . . and he told them he'd be the "best choice" to replace Simon, because, quote, "I was a judge for the selection of talent for the most iconic group of characters of all time." --That being the Village People, I guess. --He said, quote, "The show's response was that they're very much aware of this . . . and that I'm considered a serious dark horse candidate."


WILL RICKY GERVAIS . . . FROM THE *BRITISH* "OFFICE" . . . REPLACE STEVE CARELL ON THE AMERICAN "OFFICE"???

Could RICKY GERVAIS . . . who created and starred in the original version of "The Office" on British TV . . . take over for STEVE CARELL on the American version? It's possible, although there really isn't any serious talk of it yet. --Ricky was freakin' AWESOME as the star of the British version . . . and Steve will be leaving "The Office" after this coming season. --"New York" magazine says that producers have kicked the idea around, but in order for it to go anywhere . . . Ricky would have to be open to it. And at least for now, it doesn't sound like he is interested. --Ricky told "New York" magazine, quote, "As [my character on the British 'Office'] David Brent would say, 'Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt.' --"As I would say, 'Why would I get up at 6:00 a.m. five days a week for seven years when I can hire someone else to do that and still get my syndication money?'" --"Office" producer Paul Lieberstein . . . who also plays Toby on the show. . . says, quote, "We talked about [Ricky] today for a while. It's not the leading idea, [but] it's not a dead idea." (--Obviously, we'll let you know if anything comes of this. But chances are, we won't know who . . . if anyone . . . replaces Steve Carell anytime soon.)


CAROL BURNETT WILL GUEST STAR ON "GLEE", PROBABLY:

"Entertainment Weekly" reports that CAROL BURNETT will guest star on "Glee" sometime this coming season. She'll reportedly play the "Nazi-hunting mom of JANE LYNCH'S character, Sue Sylvester. --There's no airdate yet, but supposedly it'll air in either October or November. --For what it's worth, sources tell E! Online that while Carol IS in talks to appear on "Glee" . . . a deal has yet to be finalized.


"30 ROCK'S" GRIZZWALD CHAPMAN RECEIVED HIS NEW KIDNEY:

"30 Rock" actor GRIZZWALD "GRIZZ" CHAPMAN . . . who plays the bigger of TRACY MORGAN'S two entourage dudes . . . has been fighting kidney disease for two years, and needed a new kidney. And now, he got it. --Grizz underwent a successful kidney transplant last month. There aren't any other details on the procedure yet, because he hasn't made any public comments about it.
(--Grizz will be speaking at an event tonight in New York . . . celebrating National Minority Organ Donor Awareness Day. Apparently, that was this past Sunday, August 1st. Not that you were aware of it.)


DID WHOOPI GOLDBERG *ASSAULT* ONE OF THE SO-CALLED "WHITE HOUSE CRASHERS" ON "THE VIEW" YESTERDAY???

Remember those two attention whores who crashed a White House dinner last fall . . . and were later cast on "The Real Housewives of D.C."? --Well, the wife, Michaele Salahi . . . (--pronounced mih-KEL sah-LAH-hee) . . . was on "The View" yesterday, and she claims WHOOPI GOLDBERG assaulted her while she was there. Seriously. --That sounds pretty awesome . . . there's just one problem: The "altercation" was partially caught on camera, and it does NOT back Ms. Salahi's story. --First, here's the other side of the story, from "The View": --Quote, "During Michaele Salahi's appearance on 'The View' on Wednesday, Whoopi lightly touched Ms. Salahi to get her attention and said to her 'Excuse me, can you get back to the White House, please.'" (--Whoopi was not onstage at the time, but came from offstage to try to steer the conversation back to the infamous "White House crashing" incident.) --The statement continues, quote, "After the show, Ms. Salahi and her husband accused Whoopi of hitting Ms. Salahi. As the broadcast clearly shows, the accusation was completely unfounded and erroneous." --"After the show and after being told she was being accused of hitting Ms. Salahi, Whoopi proceeded to defend herself verbally from this baseless claim in a heated exchange with the Salahis." (--There are no further details on this "heated exchange" . . . and that part, naturally, was not caught on camera . . . but the so-called "hitting" was.)

JUSTIN BIEBER SAYS HIS BOOK WILL *NOT* BE A MEMOIR:

JUSTIN BIEBER'S upcoming book will not be an "illustrated memoir" . . . as we've heard . . . instead, it'll be a pictorial book, with behind-the-scenes photos of his tour. --Justin elaborated a little on the book . . . which, as far as we know, is still titled "Justin Bieber: First Step 2 Forever: My Story" . . . on Twitter. --He said, quote, "Someone asked me about the book we are putting out in October, [and I] just want to clear something up. --"It isn't a memoir . . . I teamed up with this amazing photographer, Robert, and he has been taking pictures behind the scenes from before the tour. --"So the book will include all those pics . . . and I'm going to tell the story of all that led up from rehearsals until the first night of the tour. --"[I'm] pretty excited about it and think everyone will enjoy the story and the pics . . . but we can all agree I'm a little too young to write a memoir. We can make a pretty great book with lots of exclusive stuff, but I just got a lot more life to live, too :)" (--He's right. No 16-year-old needs to be writing a "memoir." However, Justin still hasn't addressed talk that Paramount has purchased the rights to a "biopic" on his life. The movie . . . whatever it is . . . will reportedly hit theaters in February.)


A NEW KINGS OF LEON ALBUM IS COMING IN OCTOBER:

JOHN LEGEND'S NEPHEWS BROKE ONE OF HIS GRAMMYS:

Apparently, JOHN LEGEND'S nephews stayed with him recently. We know this . . . and care . . . because during their visit, they broke one of John's Grammy Awards. --Yesterday, he posted a picture of his broken Grammy on Twitter . . . along with the caption: Quote, "Casualty of the nephews staying with me. I hope they send replacement Grammys!" (--Here's the picture . . . )
http://tweetphoto.com/36778088
--John later Tweeted, quote, "Funny how many of y'all told me to beat his ass. Haha. It was truly an accident. I'm just gonna have to nephew-proof my apt a little better." --But there's already a happy ending to all this. A few hours later, the Grammys told John . . . via Twitter (???) . . . that they could send him a replacement. And John responded, quote, "See, I don't have to beat my nephew's ass."

LOS ANGELES IS THE LEAST ROMANTIC CITY IN THE U.S.:

It seems that Americans have finally realized that they aren't going to end up having a Hollywood romance.

A MAN IS IN CRITICAL CONDITION AFTER HIS GIRLFRIEND BEAT HIM WITH A VACUUM CLEANER:

Normally for a story about a woman and a vacuum cleaner, I'd be tempted to fire off some HI-LARIOUS jokes . . . that were maybe a little bit sexist. Not this time, though. Not this time. I don't want to DIE. --41-year-old Todd Proetel of Clark County, Oregon, is in critical condition today after a fight on Tuesday where his girlfriend BEAT HIM with a VACUUM CLEANER. --Todd's girlfriend, 37-year-old Michelle Hawn, was arrested and has been charged with first-degree assault.

Apparently, there are gangs in Canada. Who knew? -Anyway, 24-year-old Tyler Borrowman is a gang member in Prince George, British Columbia. On Sunday, he was busy doing whatever it is that Canadian gangsters do, and couldn't find time to do his laundry. --So he took his dirty clothes to a Laundromat for their fluff-and-fold service. A few hours later, the police got a call from an employee at the Laundromat . . . who'd found a LOADED .45-caliber handgun in one of Tyler's SOCKS. --Apparently, he'd forgotten that he'd hidden one of his guns in his laundry.

SCIENTISTS PROVE THAT IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO GET AN EVEN TAN ALL OVER YOUR BODY:

Here's some bad news for everyone out there who says, "Eff skin cancer! I refuse to look like an Irishman." Scientists at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland have found that it's PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE to get a perfectly even tan. --They found that the buttocks just REFUSE to get as tan as the back, even with the exact same amount of sun exposure. --And, they say, that can be dangerous . . . even though some parts of the body don't tan as quickly, they're still absorbing UV rays. So if you keep those areas exposed longer to get them tan, you might be putting yourself at extra risk. (BBC)


A 12-YEAR-OLD GIRL STOPS A BURGLAR BY KICKING HIM IN THE GROIN . . . THEN SKETCHES HIM FOR POLICE:

I always thought that if a kid was HOME ALONE and wanted to stop someone from robbing the house, they were supposed to set up a series of huge, elaborate booby traps, each more hilarious and devastating than the last. --But 12-year-old Georgia Bulis-Gray from the town of Bosham, England, didn't bother with that MACAULAY CULKIN crap. When she was home alone recently, and found herself face-to-face with a robber, she stopped him much more efficiently. --She kicked him as hard as she could in the JUNK. --According to Georgia, the man doubled over in pain and then ran out of the house. Georgia called the police . . . and while she waited for them to come, she drew a rough sketch of the guy. --She says she attacked the burglar because, quote, "I do not want him thinking I am just a helpless little girl. It made me angry that he was doing something wrong." --The police commended Georgia for her bravery . . . but gave the standard message that it's best NOT to get physical with someone who may or may not be armed and dangerous. --They're still looking for the burglar.

#1.) BASIL MARCEAUX HAS RELEASED HIS OFFICIAL CAMPAIGN AD:

BASIL MARCEAUX . . . the idiot who's running for governor in Tennessee . . . has released an official campaign ad. --In case you've never heard of Basil, he's the guy who went on a local news station in Nashville a few weeks ago and said that if elected, he'll let people carry unregistered firearms. --And on his website, he says that people who vote for him will get immunity from state crimes for life. So, in other words . . . he's a moron. His new campaign ad is more of the same . . . and it's hard to believe it's not a joke.

Lala Vazquez – former MTV VJ and new wife of basketball star Carmelo Anthony – is auctioning her custom hot pink wheels. In a video posted with the listing, Lala says she’s ready to let go of her “favorite car in the world” – a pink 2006 Land Rover Range Rover Sport with blinged-out custom detailing. She’ll donate part of the proceeds to the charity Oxfam America. According to the listing, “The vehicle has won numerous first and second place “Best in Show” awards at car shows around the country. A few years ago, Mattel wanted to make a Hot Wheel after this ride. The winner of this auction will get the paperwork from Mattel about this, and can contact them and negotiate their own deal, although we do not know if the offer is still on the table.”


The ‘Dirt’ On College Guys

AXE teamed up with the Sports and Leisure Research Group to conduct a study of students at six major U.S. colleges and universities to see what they really thought about male grooming.

· 47% of girls agreed that professors were the best groomed men in school, followed by members of student government (45%), pre-med students (44%) and guys who attend Ivy League schools (44%).
· Of all campus groups, girls viewed frat members as having the worst hygiene on campus (39%), followed closely by freshmen (29%), on-campus residents (23%) and varsity athletes (16%).

Women Prefer Men Who Wear Red

Wearing red could help men land the woman of their dreams. A new study at the University of Rochester finds that women are attracted to men who wear red. Even though women are unaware of the effect, the study shows there are marked increases in a man’s attractiveness, status, and sexual desirability when women view men in red. The study is based on the responses of 288 female and 25 male undergraduates in a series of experiments asking them to rate the attractiveness, sexual desirability, status, likability, kindness, and other attributes of men pictured in different colored T-shirts and photo frames. The study found that only women viewing men were affected by color; men viewing men were unaffected. However the color red only affected men’s attractiveness and status but not other traits. The color red made men more attractive, more powerful, and more sexually appealing, but did not make them seem more likable or kind.
