Lindsay Lohan Thought That Stupid E-Trade “Milkaholic” Commercial WAS ABOUT HER

OK, this pretty much epitomizes the self-centered celebrity image. Lindsay Lohan is suing E-Trade over that Super Bowl ad where the babies are talking about stock trading and that one baby calls another baby named Lindsay a "milkaholic" and OBVIOUSLY THIS IS ABOUT LINDSAY LOHAN. For realz, you guys. She's suing for $100M -- that's $50 million in compensatory damages and $50 million of exemplary damages. The lawsuit also demanded that E-Trade stop running the ad and turn over all copies to her. The suit claims the character of baby Lindsay improperly invoked her "likeness, name, characterization and personality" without permission, violating her right of privacy. Lohan's lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, tells the New York Post: "Many celebrities are known by one name only, and E-Trade is using that knowledge to profit. They used the name Lindsay. They're using her name as a parody of her life. Why didn't they use the name Susan? This is a subliminal message. Everybody's talking about it and saying it's Lindsay Lohan." Jesus Christ. IT'S NOT LIKE THEY NAMED THE BABY OMAROSA. Chris Brown, a spokesman for Grey Group, which produced the spot, says it "just used a popular baby name that happened to be the name of someone on the account team." WOAH. Either it's already April 1st or E-Trade has already paid Lindsay Lohan for the publicity this lawsuit is going to create for them, because this is complete and total madness. It's like my entire job to keep an eye on what people are saying and thinking about Lindsay Lohan, and this is the very first I've heard of this. THIS IS RIDICULOUS, LINDSAY. YOU'RE NOT EVEN THAT RELEVANT ANYMORE. Get a fucking job. In other, sort of stranger news -- and let me be clear that I DO NOT WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH A BABY -- but I'm kind of turned on by the voice of the douchebag behind the trader baby. Even though I know he's a douchebag who's going to cheat on me and pretend that he can fix it by buying me a nice purse and taking me to a fancy dinner where he'll wear an overpriced douchebag suit and talk about the stock market and check his cell phone for text messages every ten minutes until he finally just takes it out of his pocket and sets it on the table and interrupts me to answer it and talk with a client about the football game last night and even the gay waiter kind of rolls his eyes and glances at me like "You're really gonna put up with this bullshit?" and then I will go home with him that night and have sex with him even though I will spend most of that experience with my head turned aside, rolling my eyes and wishing I could be texting during this bullshit, and he will ask me in the morning if I'll make him a bowl of cereal and I will do that and when I bring it to him he will be on his cell phone talking about the stock market. I WANT THAT. Why are women so stupid? It's probably because we all have to share a chromosome with Lindsay Lohan. /> OK, this pretty much epitomizes the self-centered celebrity image.

Is Anyone Else Watching Kell on Earth?

It's a television show on Bravo that follows the life and work of self-proclaimed "power girl" Kelly Cutrone. She runs a fashion PR firm where associates and partners and junior associates run around screaming at each other and then Kelly screams louder. She's co-authoring a book called If You Have to Cry, Go Outside. She's got this mentality that the most important thing in this world is to have power, and that to have power you absolutely must treat everyone else as though their feelings don't exis...

Barbara Walters Takes Credit For Ruining Ricky Martin’s Career

In a recent interview with Queen of the Stone-Age, Barbara Walters, there appear to be some regretful vibes floating around. Walters, who infamously interviewed Ricky Martin in 2000, claims that her "push" for Martin to acknowledge which team he pitched for inadvertently ruined his career.  Although Barbara has never shied away from interrogating celebrities about their sexual orientation, Walters claims that the interview with Ricky Martin was her' most regrettable interview to date. "In...

Heidi Montag’s Just So Funny, I Could Die

Heidi Montag does the obligatory Funny or Die spoof on her use of plastic to pay for her plastic appendages.  While it's interesting to see the way her face sometimes-does and sometimes-doesn't move (and that ... odd, radioactive glow) it's still a pretty lame attempt at humor.  I went into this rather optimistically, thinking that maybe Montag would take a swipe at her own monstrous plastic surgery overhaul, but it turned into a commercial for the Consumer Protection Act instead.  And an un-funn...

How Many Outfits Does It Take for Lindsay Lohan to Spend a Day in Paris?

That's a trick question, y'all, like "How many licks does it take to get the center of a Tootsie Pop?" NOBODY KNOWS because that goddamn owl keeps fucking everything up. I have no idea where I'm trying to go with this post. Lindsay Lohan -- who is definitely not designing for Ungaro anymore, and they want to make damn sure you know that -- spent yet another day trolling around Paris in godawful clothes. Several different sets of godawful clothes. Enjoy them all in the gallery below. [...

Michael Jackson’s Bodyguards Still Trying to Do Damage Control Posthumously

According to recent interviews by the late Michael Jackson's bodyguards, the King of Pop had a plethora of pussy to pick from when it came to procreating, believe it or not. Mike Garcia, Bill Whitfield and Javon Beard were interviewed by Good Morning America and claimed that the deceased Jackson had often been driven around while he "made out" with various women in the back of his limousine.  The bodyguards claim that "men know men" and Jackson had "desires of women."  It was also said that Jackson would turn magazines around in sto...

BREAKING: Sometimes We Don’t Like the Names Celebrities Give Their Kids

THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. BabyCenter.com surveyed 5,000 moms about their favorite and least favorite baby names of 2009, so that these kids can Google themselves in twelve years and be all like "See, Mom? You set me up for failure! Everyone hated me from the start!" And then they'll run off and smoke a bunch of crack and get a DUI and go to rehab and it'll be a great big huge news story and then I WILL MAKE MONEY. So thank you, BabyCenter.com The favorite baby name of 2009: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr.'s now-5-month-old baby girl, Charlotte Grace, who earned 49%. Jennifer Garner and...

Guess Who Got All the Time in the World to Make His Oscar Acceptance Speech?

Hurt Locker producer Nicolas Chartier, who was banned from the Oscars ceremony for "aggressive campaigning" -- he emailed Academy voters and urged them to vote for his tiny indie flick rather than the “$500M film” James Cameron made -- watched the ceremony at a small party in a tent in Malibu. When his film won, he gave a long, long heavily accented speech. You can watch it above. I do wish that all award winners were given a little more time to accept their awards. Nothing pains me more than seeing, like, three dudes win for best sound mixing, and two of them get to thank their wives and children and the directors and producers and then the other one is just left standing there, his crowning life achievement cut short, while the band plays him off. I was especially annoyed last night when the rich and famous people got up on stage and helped the other rich and famous people -- aka Best Actor and Best Actress nominees -- masturbate for half an hour. WTF did we need to do that for? The poor sound mixer guys could have all thanked their wives like 800 times in the space it took for yet another person to tell Meryl Streep that she's brilliant. Even Meryl Streep was annoyed, I think. I love you more than rainbows, you guys. /> Hurt Locker producer Nicolas Chartier, who was banned from the Oscars ceremony for "aggressive campaigning" -- he emailed Academy voters and urged them to vote for his tiny indie flick rather than the “$500M film” James Cameron made -- watched the ceremony at a small party in a tent in Malibu.

Quotables

"I work in a really superficial industry. I mean, I am getting Google Alerts saying, 'You look good with the weight gain.' They don't realize they're being mean by saying you look good fatter. It's enough to drive any girl a little crazy. But it's okay. What can I say? There's nothing I can do about it." - Giuliana Rancic explained yesterday on the Oscar red carpet why it's difficult to be five pounds less skinny than she used to be....

Cameron and Justin are Friendly Exes

For most people, the idea of working with an ex-love is a complete nightmare. Even after the drama is over, years later, it would probably just feel weird to be working alongside someone that you used to bone and "share something" with. Cameron Diaz doesn't have that attitude when it comes to teaming back up with her ex, Justin Timberlake in their new movie, Bad Teacher. Yesterday on the Oscar red carpet, Cameron had nothing but nice things to say about her ex and co-star: “We’re thri...

The Vanity Fair Oscars Party: Part Deux

Up now: Amanda Seyfried, Angie Harmon (loooove the dress!), Anna Kendrick (new dress, still sucks), Diane Kruger and Josh Jackson, Dianna Agron from Glee (love the girl but the dress is the wrong color for her skin), Elizabeth Banks (new dress, like it much better), Gabourey Sidibe, more Hilary Swank (because I'm obsessed with her dress and am going to get a breast reduction so I can wear it), Jodie Foster (who looks exactly how a lesbian at an Oscars party is supposed to look), Diane von Furstenb...
