Lindsay Lohan Weight Monitored For New Movie

lindsay-lohan-amyg-opt-spl97598_013

Lindsay Lohan has finally landed on the Mischa Barton side of the tracks and found herself a rare paying acting role. Who knows how she found time to scout for work, between making fun of herself in FoD videos and begging for her ex-partner back.

The producers of her new movie, The Other Side, are putting Hohan under strict orders to behave herself on the set. No one wants there to be another humiliating episode where the actress is chided in writing by a studio head over her antics (or do we). Ho is being treated like a child and while filming, it is alleged, that her eating habits and more are going to be policed. To believe this story, one would have to believe that anyone thinks she would be worth this much effort. Assuming this is so, reports say that Ho agreed to weekly weigh-ins, nightly curfews during filming, and random drug and alcohol testing.

A source says, “Producers want Lindsay looking like a normal, healthy girl, not a skeleton. So they ordered her to rest up and eat more. They refuse to risk her dropping out of the movie because of her problems.” (via Star magazine print edition)

New Moon Trailer Official: 15 Second Teaser


New Moon Trailer – Official trailer for New Moon the ‘Twilight’ sequel.

New Moon has a new official trailer, which gives 15 seconds worth of a sneak peek at the latest movie in the Twilight saga. 

The world will soon, once again, be drowning in adolescent pee. Still not entirely sure that I get the fuss about this movie as I never found the time to watch Twilight, but perhaps the sequel will be worth a gander.

When asked about the sequel, Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke stated, “It’s got werewolves, it’s got visual effects that turn people into werewolves, it’s got motorcycle stunts, you go to Italy. It’s probably twice as much as this [to film].”

On December 13, 2008, Summit Entertainment released a synopsis of New Moon, which states: “Bella Swan is devastated by the abrupt departure of her vampire love, Edward Cullen, but her spirit is rekindled by her growing friendship with the irresistible Jacob Black. Suddenly she finds herself drawn into the world of the werewolves, ancestral enemies of the vampires, and finds her loyalties tested.” (From Wikipedia)

New Moon is out November 20. Check out the movie’s full trailer and poster.

Paris Hilton Recording A New Album

Paris Hilton is set to shake the world up/ no doubt become the target of vandals once again, as she records a new album. The heiress fancied herself as a singer and recorded a 2006 self-titled album that was less of a horror than one would have expected. Whether this new record has you wanting to thrown yourself out of a window remains to be seen.

The Paris Hilton franchise is expanding with sophomore efforts from both her TV career and music career. Fresh off of her announcement of a second season of her MTV reality series, “Paris Hilton’s My New BFF,” the heiress discussed her forthcoming album and the inspiration behind the material: herself.

“I just talk about, you know … about things that have happened in my life — about friendship, it’s about love, you know, about certain instances in my life, and I think that people will get a really good insight on me and how I think.” (via MTV Newsroom)

Diversity Final Performance (Video)

Diversity final performance on Britain’s Got Talent video (below).

In the interest of being fair and to satisfy my own morbid curiosity, I went and Googled the finale performance from the people who beat Susan Boyle on Britain’s Got Talent. Diversity beat the “hairy angel” to win the show in a twist that has put every one’s heads in a spin. Check out the performance of the dance troupe below, and see if you think they are the deserving winners.

Susan Boyle Britain’s Got Talent Finale (Video)

Susan Boyle Britain’s Got Talent finale performance ‘I Dreamed A Dream’ (below).

Susan Boyle on Britain’s Got Talent is the topic on every body’s lips. Boyle sang ‘I Dreamed A Dream’ on the Britain’s Got Talent finale, which is rather fitting as that is the performance that put her on the map and made her a YouTube sensation.

Susan Boyle ‘s reality show journey finished Saturday with a second-place finish in the finals of “Britain’s Got Talent,” an ending that didn’t fit the fairy tale. Instead of the 48-year-old internet sensation, an exuberant dance troupe called “Diversity” took the 100,000-pound ($159,000) prize and will perform for Queen Elizabeth II at the Royal Variety Show.

Boyle paced around the stage as the hosts named the top three of the ten final acts, and looked almost relieved when her name was called as the runner-up. She recovered in time to graciously praise the dancers. ”The best people won,” Boyle said. “They’re very entertaining. Lads, I wish you all the best.” (via the Huffington Post)

Boyle was expected to win the show overall, due to all the hype and celebrity support from people like Demi Moore. The singer is proof that no amount of hype can force a result on reality show, as she actually came second to Diversity. It’s a shame that the show did not reach it’s seemingly logical conclusion, but perhaps all her misdirected b*tchfits earlier in the week hurt her chances more than the shows producers were willing to let on.

You can see her original Britain’s Got Talent audition also.

‘I’m A Celebrity…’ Banned Sex In Jungle & More

im-a-celebrity-get-me-out-of-here-logo

The cast of I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here have been banned from getting into any serious trouble whilst in the Costa Rican jungle. The producers of the NBC show are being strict with the celebrity gang, in order to suck all the more interesting conflicts out of the show (when left to their own devices we all know these shows are never pretty).

The cast of the show includes Heidi Montag, Spencer Pratt, Steven Baldwin, Janice Dickinson, and other names. The guidelines for the show, as obtained by the NY Daily News, ban drug use, racism, bullying and sex.

That’s right, no sex. Which means, from a practical perspective, no breeding. There is absolutely no way that any of these people, during the course of the show, will procreate or multiply. (via NY Daily News)

Oh, thank heavens for that. NBC have had the foresight to ban Speidi from faking their orgasms in front of the camera in a pathetic attempt to boost ratings. Here’s hoping that it will also stop Dickinson & co. from “self love” and stroking their own enormous egos day and night in an attempt to stop them from shrivelling up from lack of use.
