OMG. You’re sayin there’s ANOTHER Hohan out there somewhere? Lindsay Lohan is reportedly very pissed at the news that a woman is claiming her father Michael fathered a luv child and has kept it from the family for 3 years.
Michael Lohan has admitted to romancing the child’s mother, Kristi Horn, during a period in 1995 when he and now ex-wife Dina Loan had separated, and has ordered his lawyers to get him outta this mess. Because, you know, there’s Lindsay’s money involved.
It’s been reported that the private school being founded by Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett have ties to Scientology. The couple are said to be dissatisfied with education option for their kids, so they started the exclusive re-education camp New Village Academy.
The trouble is, the school will use instructional methods similar to those developed by former sci-fi pulp writer and scientology founder, L. Ron Hubbard. And “a few” teachers just happen to be members of the cult.
Spencer Pratt is out peddling his lil barely there career by calling out Mary-Kate Olsen who dissed him on the David Letterman Show while promoting her film ‘The Wackness’. Pratt hissed back by telling Us magazine: “I don’t really get why she’d use my name to get press for her little indie film that no one’s going to see.”
“She should probably focus more on not getting dressed in the dark than on me,” the Hills guy said. “I know I’ve made it in Hollywood when a famous troll is talking about me on Letterman.”
Actor Ben Affleck is claiming that many of Hollywood’s big names are simply seeking publicity when doing charity work. The star - who has made three trips to Africa in the last eight months - returned from his own humanitarian mission in Africa’s Democratic Republic of Congo in May.
He says, “Here I am, this actor. There’s the potential for one of these cliche actors showing up out of the middle of nowhere in Africa. It’s really critical for me to learn and to understand and not to be some outsider who shows up and says, ‘I know what’s happening and I know what should be done.’
Fans are still guessing about the romance between Rihanna and Chris Brown. When asked it at the Bet Awards on Tuesday, Rihanna would only lie as usual say: “We aren’t dating; we’re very good friends.”
Nu-uh! Can’t give the “we’re just friends” line the day after Brown’s moms cooed about the Umbrella singer at a pre-awards event calling Rihanna “the sexiest and sweetest girl Chris has ever dated.”
Verne Troyer made a sex tape. Verne Troyer ‘leaked’ the tape to the internet. TMZ airs lame portion of Verne with his mini-me tongue in girlfriend’s mouth. Verne Troyer sues TMZ for $20 million. Mini Me needs money.
In the lawsuit, the tiny ‘Austin Powers’ actor is claiming TMZ violated his privacy and - infringed on his copyright and trademark - by airing portions of his sex tape. Hilarity ensues.
Kanye West blew a gasket and vented on his blog, TYPING IN ALL CAPS TO SHOW HOW REALLY REALLY PISSED HE IS, cuz people are criticizing his performance at Bonnaroo. Kanye refused to perform at dusk (”I HAVE A LIGHT SHOW DUMB ASS”) and made festivalgoers wait hours until his extensive set was erected on the stage. As a result, he didn’t perform until after 4 a.m.
He blames Bonnaroo concert organizers - and Pearl Jam - for the fiasco. He’s an excerpt of his vent from his blog:
Gossip Girl actor and former model Chace Crawford, 22, recently gave a candid interview to The Metro. He talks about his days working as a greeter at Abercrombie & Fitch (”They play the same 3 Cds all day long”) and says he’s not having a gay relationship with JC Chasez, but observes:”You haven’t made it unless there’s been a gay rumor about you.”
If you’re wondering how much it costs to raise two young children in Los Angeles these days, it’s $480,000 a year, according to Kimora Simmons. And that’s even with Owning the clothing company she dresses the kids in!
According to documents in the Russell Simmons and Kimora Lee divorce case filed yesterday, the Def Jam records co-founder has to shell out $20k per month — per daughter — in child support to Kimora. And he’s gotta keep paying until 2019 for Ming Lee and 2022 for Aoki.
Producer J.J. Abrams and director Matt Reeves sound like they are having trouble coming up with a script - hell, even a concept - for ‘Cloverfield 2′. That barely-seen monster is still rampaging through Manhattan and crushing building, cars, choppers and eating folks but Abrams wants to do something “fresh” and “unique” for a sequel.
A reporter asked Abrahms if a prequel or a sequel shot by steady cam (by a new character) would work again but the ‘Lost’ producer isn’t revealing much on how he might do the next one.
