Dina Lohan Opens Up About Her Daughter’s Nudey Pics

A photo of Dina Lohan and Lindsay Lohan If you'll remember, last week Dina Lohan reported that Lindsay's Playboy shoot "went well." That was nice to hear, it was encouraging and all, but you'd think that a good mom would be a little more descriptive about how her daughter's first big foray into pornography is going. And friends, we all know that Dina Lohan does not disappoint in the "good mother" category, and so, without further adieu, here's Dina's Playboy update: "It was an opportunity for her and she's done thousands and thousands of covers, so this was just something…she's 25 now. It was just something...

Quotables: Lestat and Louie Pity The Cullens

"Lestat and Louie feel sorry for vampires that sparkle in the sun. They would never hurt immortals who choose to spend eternity going to high school over and over again in a small town — anymore than they would hurt the physically disabled or the mentally challenged. My vampires possess gravitas. They can afford to be merciful."

- Anne Rice gets catty about Twilight.

Pardon me, friends, while I laugh for days. Stephenie Meyer's glittery creations have been on my mind more than usual, both because of the Breaking Dawn film, which can't come any sooner, and because the boyfriend has started reading the books and it tickles me so (my favorite comments include "does she ever stop talking about how pretty he is? She just said that he was reminiscent of an ancient Pagan god of beauty. Is she really talking about his liquid topaz eyes?"). That also means that the superior Anne Rice's comment hits my funny bone harder than it would have otherwise.

But let's go ahead and get to the main issue here:

JK Rowling Almost Killed Ron And Hagrid And Breaks My Heart All Over Again

A photo of JK Rowling Just when I thought that I was finally getting over the anguish and despair that I felt this summer over Harry Potter's last hurrah, it starts up all over again. Because she hasn't done enough already, JK Rowling had a big long chat with Daniel Radcliffe for the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 Blu-ray in which she taunts us with horrible, awful things she almost did and one heartbreaking account of something beautiful that she cruelly decided could never be. On killing Ron Weasl...

Snooki Doesn’t Read, Wants to Be on The Office

A photo of Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi Oh, how I love Snooki! I think it has to do with her "I don't give a f*ck" attitude, her ambition, and the way she does her nails. Either way, Snooki did a delightful little interview with GQ in which we learn that she can do surgery on animals, she voted for McCain, and that "everyone can suck it." GQ: So, I've got to ask: You've really never heard of J.K. Rowling or Maya Angelou? Snooki: I don't read. I don't like to read Harry Potter or anything like that. It's not my style. GQ: Bu...

Why Michelle Williams Keeps Her Hair Short

A photo of Michelle Williams My first thought, one that I'm sure many of you share, was "why, Michelle Williams, you keep your hair short because it looks stunning and adorable that way!" For real, I can't think of a woman who can pull of this look better than Michelle can (well, maybe Natalie Portman. I don't know, let me think about it). It turns out, however, that Michelle has a much more depressing reason to keep her short hairstyle: "What Matilda would love is for her mom to grow out the cropped hair, though th...

Courtney Stodden Still Has The Best Mom

A photo of Courtney Stodden This is just like that time that Courtney Stodden's mom, Krista, said that Dina Lohan is a great mom, only better. And by "better," I mean that this time, Courtney's mom is talking about how she persuaded a 51-year old man to marry her 16-year-old daughter. On the beginning of Doug and Courtney's courtship: "I could really tell my daughter had the kind of love when you want to marry a man or be with a man. Even though she was just 16, I knew it was going to take a pretty big man to handle her because of her sexuality and because of the attentio...

OK, Just One More Halloween Picture

A photo of Neil Patrick Harris Come on, it's Neil Patrick Harris and his family, what am I supposed to do, ignore it? Sure, Jessica Simpson's costume was also a big reveal, and LeAnn Rimes' costume was funny because we got to laugh at her, not with her. But this is Neil Patrick Harris here. He's too adorable to ignore....

Blind Item: Christina Aguilera Is An Angry Drunk

A photo of Christina Aguilera Every now and then, there's a blind item that I can figure out. And, I'll admit it, I get a little cocky. I'll post the picture of the celebrity I think the blind item refers to instead of that creepy faceless picture, and I'll talk a little more smack. And this is definitely one of those times. This diva had a little too much to drink at a recent Halloween party. She was fine until someone brought up the name of another female artist. Our diva began mocking her rival. When someone made th...

Lindsay Got 30 Days in Jail … But Wait!

A photo of Lindsay Lohan It's always a great day for America when Lindsay Lohan goes to jail. You get this warm fuzzy feeling of justice being served. It's almost better than Christmas morning! But then something like this happens, and everything goes to hell. But let's rewind. Today, Lindsay got sentenced to 30 days in jail for that time she violated her probation. The judge gave Lindsay a schedule for her probation because she obviously can't figure it out for herself, and the deal is that if Lindsay doesn'...

PETA Is Hating on Reese Witherspoon’s Fashion

A photo of Reese Witherspoon You see that purse that Reese Witherspoon is carrying up there? That's a python, or rather, it used to be, and PETA doesn't appreciate it. Are you surprised? Because you really, really shouldn't be. And now here's the part where PETA attempts to publicly shame Reese.  Here's a warning for the more tender readers among us: the middle paragraph is the extremely dramatic and graphic part where they talk about all the python had to go through to be made into a bag: No matter how much Reese paid for that bag, the animals paid a much higher pr...

Aww, Kris Humphries Doesn’t Want Kim Kardashian to Go!

A photo of Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries And really, can you blame him? Poor Kris Humphries didn't even know that his true love, Kim Kardashian, was actually filing for divorce until yesterday morning, just a few hours before the rest of us found out. And, understandably, Kris is very, very sad about things. Here's his official statement: "I'm committed to this marriage and everything this covenant represents. I love my wife and am devastated to learn she filed for divorce ... I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make it wor...

It’s A Brand New Trailer for We Need to Talk About Kevin!

I don't know about you guys, but I am crazy excited for We Need to Talk About Kevin, and, just in time for all your crazy post-Halloween shenanigans (are other people having those? I went to the store last night around midnight to get discounted Halloween candy and we're watching The Human Centipede later, so don't you be afraid to stretch out that magical holiday as well), we bring you the latest trailer! Real quick book talk: has anyone else read this novel? I'm in the process of doing so, and so far I'm really enjoying it. I mean, sure, I took a couple breaks to read a Goosebumps book or two (or three), but so far, it's fantastic. Do you guys have any similar books or movies that you'd like to suggest? Because in case the mention of Goosebumps didn't make it obvious, I'm really down with some terrifying entertainment right now. /> I don't know about you guys, but I am crazy excited for We Need to Talk About Kevin, and, just in time for all your crazy post-Halloween shenanigans (are other people having those?
