Rihanna and Shia??? Seriously???

rihanna.jpg The rumors have been flying for a couple of days. Rihanna's denying them, saying the two are just friends. I don't think Shia's made any formal comment yet. But I keep hearing more and more stories about Shia LaBeouf and Rihanna! Here's one from Buzz Foto: It was an interesting evening last night. We had our weekly Global Domination Buzz Foto dinner at Kate Mantilini restaurant in Beverly Hills and we were had just ordered our shrimp cocktails and wine when we noticed Rihanna wal...

Google’s Trying to Get Its Employees Laid

Google may seem like the perfect place to work if you're a nerdy computer genius. You can be among lots of other nerdy computer geniuses. They have free gourmet food on site. Free massages. Dry-cleaning. Stock options. None of which is really doing a lot to help you get laid. But now Google's taking steps to change all that, according to Page Six:
GOOGLE'S "media" soiree at its new Chelsea office on Oct. 3 is looking more like a singles mixer than a meet-and-greet with reporters. The invitation reads, "Please join us for a media cocktail party" to "meet Googlers in the know." But many veteran media reporters for business and tech publications weren't invited, while the fashionable, mostly female staffers at W and Women's Wear Daily were. "It's not a 'media party,' " one invitee snickered. "It's a party for horny tech nerds who want cute girls to show up." Party organizer Anne Espiritu told us, "We are hosting an event for consumer and broadcast media."
Sounds like fun! />Google may seem like the perfect place to work if you're a nerdy computer genius. You can be among lots of other nerdy computer geniuses. They have free gourmet food on site.

Nick Hogan’s Friend Still in Critical Condition in Hospital

While Owen Wilson's in good condition, the friend of Nick Hogan who was injured in The Hulk's son's recent car crash -- John Graziano -- remains in very serious condition in a Florida hospital. "John's condition hasn't changed since he arrived," say sources inside the hospital. Meanwhile, the Florida police are investigating other vehicles they think may have been involved in the accident. How can a car be "involved" in an accident without actually being in the accident? Drag-racing, people. Drag-racing. "We suspect there may be others and we encourage them to come forward," say the Florida police. If this kid dies as a result of drag-racing -- and I hope and pray he doesn't -- these kids are in deep, deep shit. />While Owen Wilson's in good condition, the friend of Nick Hogan who was injured in The Hulk's son's recent car crash -- John Graziano -- remains in very serious condition in a Florida hospital.

Michael Lohan to Visit Lindsay in Rehab

It looks like Lindsay Lohan's father will finally get his wish -- he gets to see his daughter. In rehab, of course, but at least he's getting to see her. According to Page Six:
Lindsay Lohan and her mother, Dina, have decided to allow Michael Lohan to visit his eldest daughter at her Utah rehab. "It was actually her older brother, Michael's, idea. It's a part of the healing process," a friend said. "Lindsay will see him later this week, but she will have counselors with her. It will not be alone." Michael - whose divorce from Dina is likely to be finalized soon, now that they've resolved most issues between them, including custody - hasn't seen Lindsay in years due to his abusive temper and violent behavior. In order for him to be allowed to visit, Dina - who has a restraining order out against Michael - had to get it lifted. "Dina thinks it is a good idea," the friend said. "Lindsay needs to deal with this and needs closure." Michael has said he's been sober and found God since leaving jail earlier this summer. A rep for the Lohans said, "Yes, he will be seeing his daughter."
As crazy as Michael Lohan is, you have to admit he's cleaned up his act a lot since his pre-jail days. We haven't heard stories of him getting in bar fights or assaulting family members in recent days, which is more than I can say for Lindsay. Who knows, maybe he'll actually be a positive influence on Lindsay. Lord knows she needs all the help she can get. />It looks like Lindsay Lohan's father will finally get his wish -- he gets to see his daughter.

More on Owen Wilson’s Drug Problems

In the aftermath of funnyman Owen Wilson's suicide attempt, the question on everyone's mind is, of course, how did this happen?

The answer, it appears, is a common one: drugs.

Owen has a history of trouble with drugs and alcohol, and they seem to have spiraled out of control in the days before he slit his wrist and overdosed on pills. In the past day, stories have surfaced indicating that Owen was using heroin and cocaine, and went on a three-day binge with crystal meth and OxyContin.

Three days before the suicide attempt, Wilson was spotted in a Santa Monica church, according to Us Weekly. Was he hoping for divine intervention?

Jennifer Lopez to Executive Produce TV Show

Is there anything Jennifer Lopez can't do? The singer/actress/dancer/model/executive producer is at it again, as she's signed on to produce The Amigas Sweet 15 Club, a television show about a group of young women who start a business planning Quinceanera parties. It will be a half-hour show with plenty of musical numbers. Lopez helps to use the show as a vehicle to break new Latina talent, and a line of CDs based on the show's music is already in the works. And in case you're more of a bookworm type, a line of young adult novels is being developed as well. Have they even cast this thing yet? An IMDB search indicates that they have not. It's also unclear whether Lopez plans to appear on the show. />Is there anything Jennifer Lopez can't do?

Miss Teen South Carolina Does Little to Help Her Cause

The star of our new favorite YouTube video showed up on The Today Show today to try to explain that she's not really as stupid as she seems in the clip. And, while she seems like a very sweet girl, and her speech this time fits into the grammatical pattern I've come to recognize as "English," she still comes off like she's not the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree. Poor thing. At least they can't take away her crown for being stupid. Check out the video here. />The star of our new favorite YouTube video showed up on The Today Show today to try to explain that she's not really as stupid as she seems in the clip.

Amy Winehouse’s In-Laws Want Fans to Boycott

winehouse.jpg The father of Amy Winehouse's husband recommends that fans boycott the troubled singer until she can get her act together. "They are seen as a couple who display sorts of behavior that can be seen as almost entertaining, especially for the tabloid newspapers, and I think it's about time that their friends and professional colleagues say, 'enough is enough.' Perhaps it's come to the point where—and I wouldn't want any harm to come to Amy or Blake, obviously—but perhaps it's tim...
