When Lindsay Lohan checked into a sober living house shortly after hiring her new lawyer, Robert Shapiro, it looked like ol' Rob was doing his best to get Lindsay out of jail time in favor of rehab. But it turns out that's not the case. Here's what he told E!:
"I have agreed to represent Ms. Lohan on the condition that she complies with all of the terms of her probation, including a requirement of jail time that was imposed by Judge Marsha Revel. Ms. Lohan is suffering from a disease that I am all too familiar with. Hopefully, I can be of assistance to Ms. Lohan and Judge Revel in implementing a treatment approach recommended by medical professionals for Ms. Lohan's long term recovery and sobriety."
So what happened to the Lohan family whining about unfair trials? Maybe they changed their minds and realized that Lindsay needs to face up to what she's done and just go to jail, and that's why she went and checked into that sober house. Or maybe Robert Shapiro tricked them while they were all drunk/high/naturally stupid. Only time will tell - there are only three days left till Lindsay heads towards the slammer. />When Lindsay Lohan checked into a sober living house shortly after hiring her new lawyer, Robert Shapiro, it looked like ol' Rob was doing his best to get Lindsay out of jail time in favor of rehab.

Paris Hilton got caught with weed again. She said it wasn't hers again. And she got away with it again.
Just a couple of weeks ago, Paris was caught with marijuana as she was leaving South Africa, but she was let go when officials said they misidentified her and it was really her friend who had the drugs. And I'm sure that's exactly what happened.
This time, Paris was detained at a different airport because weed was found in her purse. She was released soon after though, and she's already Tweeted about it:
So sick of people making up rumors about me. The latest one about me is completely false too. Don't believe what you read. Silly nonsense.
Silly nonsense, indeed. I don't know why anyone would be so quick to assume that Paris Hilton does drugs. That is just a preposterous notion that needs to be stopped as soon as possible. />Paris Hilton got caught with weed again. She said it wasn't hers again. And she got away with it again.

With all the various court dealings and the photos and tapes being released these days, keeping up with Mel Gibson is a tough gig. Here's a handy little list of the shenanigans that good ol' Mel has gotten into lately:
- Radar posted a photo of Oksana after Mel knocked her teeth out. Her dentist, the one who took the picture, has said that he doesn't believe she was hit in the mouth like she said, but that her injuries were consistent with being punched in the temple - she broke her teeth from instinctively bearing them down. He says that he even saw bruising on her temple, but in the photo she covered it with her hair because she wanted to protect Mel. An expert who examined the photo said that the wound looked self-inflicted, but there's still that whole recording in which he tells Oksana that she "fucking deserved" being punched in the face, so I'm guessing that expert was from Mel's camp.
- Security at Mel Gibson's church has gotten real tight since this whole mess started. Guards have been hired to keep watch over the church on the weekends, and some additional guards have been hired to hang out with Mel 24/7. Because that makes sense - I think if anybody tried to hurt Mel, he could just pant angrily at them and threaten them with oral sex and they'd run away screaming.
- In the custody battle for Mel and Oksana's baby girl, the judge ruled that Mel wasn't dangerous, so their arrangement of full visitation rights and one overnight a week for Mel still stands. The thing that probably tipped the scales in Mel's favor was a declaration made by Mel's ex, Robin. She said that in the 28 years they were married, he never physically abused her or their children. I don't think she said whether or not he ever shouted at her at the top of his lungs about blow jobs.
I just cannot get over how crazy Mel Gibson is. I mean, yeah, there was that whole "sugartits" debacle, but this is just out of hand. And things should only get crazier - Radar still has more audio tapes to release.

Looking at this image of Will and Jada with their kids Willow and Jaden at the London premiere of The Karate Kid is just like looking at so many albums from my own childhood. The paparazzi, the glamor, the historical surroundings... Can't we all relate to this?

The New York Post posted an interesting article this morning about what Broadway has dubbed "the Denzel effect." This effect, named after Denzel Washington for his recent role in August Wilson's Fences on Broadway, describes the growing number of film actors making a move to theatre. Actors who are currently making this move include Halle Berry, who will co-star with Samuel L. Jackson in an upcoming drama called The Mountaintop, and James Earl Jones is returning to Broadway to star with Vanessa Redgrave in Driving Miss Daisy (which also sounds pretty spectacular), but there's one rumored casting choice that intrigues me more than the others.
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have been offered roles in an upcoming revival of Tennessee Williams' A Streetcar Named Desire. If they accept, Will would play Stanley while Jada would play Stella. And that is just too much awesome.
I absolutely love Will Smith. I think he's a magnificent actor; Stanley doesn't seem like an easy role to play, but I have little doubt that he could do it beautifully. All acting ability aside though, how crazy would it be to see the Fresh Prince do the famous "STELLA!" bit? />The New York Post posted an interesting article this morning about what Broadway has dubbed "the Denzel effect."

Although the Twilight cast has copped to enjoying her, Miley Cyrus is once again mouthing off about how much she can't stand the vampire saga. Miley was quoted as saying, “I’d rather keep the dead and revolting things like vampires and werewolves out of my life," and while I don't believe that's totally true (I mean, have you seen her brother?), I agree that Twilight is completely unappealing.
So who do you think is better (or worse)? Miley or Twilight? />Although the Twilight cast has copped to enjoying her, Miley Cyrus is once again mouthing off about how much she can't stand the vampire saga.

That's pretty bad. I mean, it might not mean much coming from me, as I check my Twitter intermittently and only use it to stalk John Cusack, but come on, LeAnn. A week?
Last week, LeAnn told the public that she was taking a break from Twitter, because she couldn't hack the scrutiny that a homewrecking celebrity with a Twitter account is sometimes subjected to:
“taking a break from twitter for a while…It’s unhealthy for me and my family to have to read negative comments from people who’s [sic] opinions have no bearing on my life.”
But though she wants to be emotionally healthy and spiritually rich, she's back at the keyboard again, assailing her followers with affection for those who admire her:
“Hi twitter land! Miss u all and thought I’d just say hello! I have so many darling fans and want you all to know how much u r appreciated…Hugs to all! Can’t stay away for too long :)”
Yeah. I was totally heartbroken ... for that week ... that I couldn't be subjected to LeAnn fighting with her followers over kissing co-cheater Eddie Cibrian in public. I just knew there was something missing from my life, though I wasn't sure what it was at the time.
All is right with the world today. />That's pretty bad. I mean, it might not mean much coming from me, as I check my Twitter intermittently and only use it to stalk John Cusack, but come on, LeAnn. A week?
