Lohan does a Monroe

Feb 19 2008

Posted by Jay as Entertainment Features, Featured Articles

Marilyn Monroe must be turning in her grave right now. Monroe was the world-famous and controversial blond seductress who died of drug overdose in 1962. Six weeks before she died, she agreed to have a photo-shoot at her suite in Hotel Bel-Air in California with photographer Bert Stern. The photo sessions captured extraordinarily beautiful and unique images of Monroe, three of which are included here. These images for Vogue magazine show Monroe posing nude with some scarves and jewelry as her accessories and sipping champagne. Forty-six years later, another controversial bombshell, Lindsay Lohan, has recreated the poses that Monroe did – in the ...

Will Lindsay wake up the dead?

Jan 20 2008

Posted by Jay as Entertainment Features, Featured Articles

Will her presence in a morgue make dead people wish they were alive? Or will they be thankful they were already dead? That’s the questions that the dead will have to answer once Lindsay Lohan complies with the latest punishment meted on her by law for misdemeanor drunken driving – a visit to the morgue in June this year. In an effort to drive into Lohan’s brains the potentially fatal consequences of drinking and driving, a Los Angeles court sentenced her to spend two, four-hour days in a morgue. After that, she’ll spend two days working in an emergency room. The ...

Posted by Jay as Entertainment Features, Featured Articles

Nicole Richie even had the gall to smile in her jail mugshot, as if saying "this is nothing." Soon, they could put up a movie studio inside prison facilities in Los Angeles, California. The jails there are becoming pretty crowded with celebs, that’s why. On Thursday, a pregnant Nicole Richie was released from the Century Regional Detention Facility in Los Angeles after serving 82 minutes of a four-day sentence for driving under the influence of drugs. Richie served her 82 minutes at the county jail in suburban Lynwood, the same place her "The Simple Life" co-star Paris Hilton was housed for ...

Posted by Jay as Entertainment Features, Featured Articles, In the News

It seems to be that way for poor, poor Lindsay Lohan. Why she’s doing what she’s doing only she and her “toilet” know. Days after being released from rehab for drunk driving, LiLo has once again been arrested for drunk driving and drug possession.

Lindsay and GF more than friends?

Jul 12 2007

Posted by Jay as Entertainment Features

From one shocker to another – that appears to be Lindsay Lohan’s life. The latest news is that she has been hiding a love affair with her girlfriend, Samantha Ronson.

Lindsay Lohan (right) with girlfriend Samantha Ronson. When Lindsay checked into Promises Rehab Clinic, there was constant contact with Ronson, on text messages, MySpace, and letters. The focus of all this communicating? Lindsay’s in love with Samantha. Reportedly, the messages recovered by Star magazine are mostly too explicit to mention. But a few PG-13 rated ones are as follows…“Your [sic] all I have to live for, babe. I want ...

The Rise of Shia LaBeouf

Jul 09 2007

Posted by Jen as Entertainment, Featured Articles

It was during the promotion for the film "Disturbia" when the name Shia LaBeouf first generated murmurs around tinseltown. However, it was when he played Sam Witwickey in the top-grossing and shall I say REALLY AWESOME "Transformers" movie that Shia really became a household name. Over the past few years, I haven't really seen any young male actor evolve from small roles to huge blockbuster ones. We've seen stars like Hilary Duff and Lindsay Lohan grow up and perform more mature roles and rise to significant stardom but no male actor, in my honest opinion, has ever made ...

Posted by Jay as Entertainment, In the News, News Features

If only all former prisoners, regardless of their social backgrounds, would be as repentant as Paris Hilton, and if only such show of repentance is genuine, then there’s still hope for goodness to prevail in this world. But the problem is that those are two mighty “ifs” that look more surreal than real. paris hilton at cnn
