Lawyer: Lindsay Lohan Has Made Friends In Jail

Lindsay Lohan is adjusting to life behind bars and she has even found a friend or two, according to her lawyer.
On Sunday, the actress’ legal counsel, Shawn Chapman Holley, told media, “she has made friends.”
Holley added that Lohan “is not getting special treatment and she hasn’t asked for special treatment.”
“The deputies have treated her respectfully (and she them),” Holley also said.
As previously reported on media, Lohan was sent to the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, Calif., on Tuesday to begin serving her 90-day sentence, the result of violating her DUI probation. She is expected to serve around two weeks behind bars.

Aiswarya Rai Bachchan’s bonding with Kate Winslet

Bollywood star Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Academy award winning actress Kate Winslet made a stunning sight as they shot an advertisement together in Rome.
The two beauties, both dressed in little black dresses, filmed a commercial for the Swiss watch brand Longines in the city, reported Daily Mail.
The former Miss World, 36 has been the spokesmodel for the brand for the past four years while the ‘Titanic’ beauty is the latest name to endorse the high-end chronologists.
They were joined by Taiwanese model and actress Lin Chi-ling, in the advertisement.
Kate and Aishwarya ran in their heels into a black car during filming, while Lin Chi-ling jetted off in a vintage red Alfa Romeo.
Aishwarya is a well known face in the West thanks to the Hollywood multi-starrer ‘Pink Panther 2′ where she worked alongside big names like Steve Martin and Andy Garcia, and her yearly appearances at the Cannes red carpet.
The two actresses had met earlier but at that time it was just a formal and very short meeting. This time the shooting will continue for two days and the actresses will have more time to get to know each other.

Angelina Jolie Gets ‘Salt’-y At Comic-Con

Angelina Jolie wasted no time heading down to the San Diego Comic-Con International.
Access Hollywood sources claimed to have spotted the “Salt” star making a brief appearance at the movie’s booth at the popular convention’s Preview Night on Wednesday.
However, Sony, the studio behind the film, apparently wants Angelina’s alleged appearance kept under wraps – the studio told Access the sighting report was “not true” when asked for comment.
Comic-Con’s “Salt” panel kicks off in Hall H at 1 PM today. Update, 2:45 PM: Angelina did indeed appear at the panel, rocking a black leather jacket and discussing her action-packed performance.
Not in attendance at Comic-Con, however, was Angelina’s partner, Brad Pitt — the “Megamind” star was absent at the DreamWorks Animation film’s panel on Thursday, replaced next to co-stars Tina Fey, Will Ferrell and Jonah Hill with a cardboard cut-out of himself.
“Unfortunately, since Angelina’s here, Brad had to watch the kids,” director Tom McGrath joked.
“Salt” is due in theaters on Friday. Keep an eye on Media all week for the latest details from the convention floor!

Jail Is ‘Saving’ Lindsay Lohan’s Life : Sharon Osbourne

The Osbourne family knows a thing or two about the fight against addiction – and matriarch Sharon Osbourne told Media that she thinks that Judge Marsha Revel saved Lindsay Lohan’s life by sending her to jail.
“I think it’s saving her life,” the “America’s Got Talent” judge told Access on Wednesday. “The judge has been the only one to give tough love and that’s what she needs right now. I know she doesn’t think so, but she’s going to look back on her life in a few months and she’s going to go, ‘Thank you, God.’”
Lindsay entered jail on Tuesday and is expected to be locked up for two weeks – only a portion of her 90-day sentence.
“It’s not going to cure her,” Sharon said. “But hopefully it will be enough time on her own for her to rethink her life.”
Lindsay spent several days in a sober-living house, the Pickford Lofts in Los Angeles, before beginning her jail time.
As previously reported on Media, court documents have revealed that Lindsay is using a number of prescription medications. Reported on Wednesday that the star will be able to continue on several of her prescriptions, including Adderall and Ambien, while in jail.
Her multiple medications have long been a source of worry to her father, Michael Lohan, who told Media’s Maria Menounos earlier this month that Lindsay’s drug intake was “toxic.”
“That combination will kill her,” Michael said.

Liz Taylor: ‘No One Is Going To Play Elizabeth Taylor, But Elizabeth Taylor Herself!’

Despite the casting rumors, no one is going to play Elizabeth Taylor in a film based around her life and romance with Richard Burton, according to the Dame herself.
The celebrated actress, Dame and multiple Oscar winner hit her Twitter on Thursday night to set the record straight over rumors that several Hollywood actresses – including Catherine Zeta-Jones and Angelina Jolie — were in the running to play her in a movie about her life and legendary relationship with Burton.
Liz and Richard had a lengthy love affair and were married twice.
“Hold your horses world. I’ve been hearing all kinds of rumours about someone being cast to play me in a film about Richard and myself,” Dame Liz Tweeted on Thursday. “No one is going to play Elizabeth Taylor, but Elizabeth Taylor herself.”
The Dame went on to note that someone could play her one-day, but showed her fiery spirit by noting it won’t be any time soon.
“Not at least until I’m dead, and at the moment I’m having too much fun being alive…and I plan on staying that way,” she added. “Happiness to all.”
The BBC previously reported that a film was rumored to be planned based around Elizabeth and Burton’s relationship, based on a book by Sam Kashner and Nancy Schoenberger.

Taylor Swift Announces New Album; ‘Speak Now’ Due Oct. 25

Two years after her sophomore smash “Fearless,” Taylor Swift is ready to let her music “Speak” to her fans again.
The country superstar will release her third studio album, “Speak Now,” on October 25, she announced on Tuesday.
“Saying the right thing at the right moment is so crucial that most of us start to hesitate, for fear of saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. But lately what I’ve begun to fear more than that is letting the moment pass without saying anything,” Taylor said in a press release of her new effort.
Even though Taylor isn’t ready for a bare-all confession about her feelings, she has cleverly translated her unspoken thoughts and emotions into songs for her new album, “Speak Now,” dedicating each song to an individual in her life.
“These songs are made up of words I didn’t say when the moment was right in front of me. These songs are open letters. Each is written with a specific person in mind, telling them what I meant to tell them in person,” Taylor explained.
“Speak Now,” which contains 14 tracks all written by Taylor, will be released on October 25, and will be available for special pre-sale beginning August 20 HERE.
The first single, “Mine,” will be released on August 16.

Wissam Al Mana: Dating Janet Jackson!

t’s been a tough year for Janet Jackson, but she’s happier lately.
New boyfriend Wissam Al Mana could be a big reason for that.
After splitting from longtime boyfriend Jermaine Dupri after a seven-year relationship last summer, Jackson slowly eased into this new romance. The pop star and her man were snapped soaking up the rays in Sardinia, Italy.
The 44-year-old Why Did I Get Married Too? star and the 35-year-old businessman from Qatar, who owns homes worldwide, have been quietly enjoying each other’s company, according to reports. Glad she’s moving on and happy!
It’s nice to see Michael’s sister happy again.
We’re guessing Wissam Al Mana approves of  Janet’s new haircut too.
In non-romance news, she’s currently writing True You, an exercise and nutrition book. She told Essence she “wanted to write this book because [she] wanted kids to have something to read and know that they are beautiful as they are.”

Lindsay Lohan’s Jail Neighbor: Burglar Bunch Member

Lindsay Lohan may be segregated from the general population in the Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynnwood, Calif., but her nearest jail neighbor is an old acquaintance… of sorts.
Access Hollywood has learned that Alexis Neiers, the very woman who plead no contest to burglarizing Orlando Bloom’s home, is being housed in the cell next to the actress.
Lohan is in cell #28, while Neiers is in #29.
According to E! News, Neiers is in Paris Hilton’s old cell at the facility.
Lohan is not expected to have contact with other inmates while she is in jail, but the cells are reportedly close enough that the two women could talk if they wanted to.
Neiers was connected to the group of several young people who were accused of burglarizing the homes of several celebs in 2009 including Bloom, Lohan, Hilton and Rachel Bilson.
In related news, Mediachunks has learned that Lohan’s physical contact with the outside world will be kept to a minimum while she is inside. Her visits with her attorney will be through glass, via a phone. Additionally, showers will be isolated and break time for activities will also be done without others around.

BIOGRAPHY
Stunning, smart and slightly insane, this Hollywood icon is known for romancing her costars, kissing her brother at the Oscars, exotic tattoos and commendable humanitarian efforts. The daughter of Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight, she first garnered attention as a high-school computer wiz in the film Hackers after which she married costar Jonny Lee Miller. Their marriage died in 1999 just when Jolie's career was heating up. She appeared in three films that year including the seriocomic Pushing Tin which introduced her to hubby No. 2, Billy Bob Thornton, and the mental-institution drama Girl, Interrupted, which earned her an Oscar. Subsequently, Jolie made a series of blockbusters (Lara Croft: Tomb Raider) and bombs (Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow), none of which made use of her considerable acting talents. After divorcing Thornton in 2003, Jolie devoted much of her time to working with refugees in impoverished countries and raising her adopted children. In 2005, around the time her action film Mr. & Mrs. Smith was released, rumors circulated that she and recently separated costar Brad Pitt were having an affair. Although they refused to confirm the relationship, they remained tabloid cover stars for months until Jolie finally admitted in early 2006 that she was pregnant with his child.

Leonardo DiCaprio & Marion Cotillard On ‘Inception’s’ Love Story


“Inception” is many things – a heist film, a visual spectacle – but according to Leonardo DiCaprio, the Christopher Nolan-directed film is also a love story.

“This is a love story in a lot of ways,” he told Access Hollywood at the film’s LA premiere on Tuesday. “It’s a love story in different states of the human subconsciousness and different dimensions.

“Marion Cotillard’s character, Mal, and I… we’ve existed in parallel worlds and had a relationship,” he further explained, without giving away too much. “I think that will suffice.”

The film may be mysterious, but Marion herself told Access that working alongside her handsome leading man didn’t take a lot of thought.

“It was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had and I mean it,” she said. “I would love to work with him again.”

She also hinted at how her and Leo’s characters connect.

“Sharing dreams is something that was totally created out of Christopher Nolan’s imagination,” Marion said. “So we really had to create their past and to talk about this relationship and this very special thing they share."

Penelope Cruz & Javier Bardem Are Married


It’s a match made in Oscar heaven: Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem have gotten married.

Cruz’s representative Amanda Silverman confirms the couple were married in the beginning of July at a friend’s house in the Bahamas.

She said in an e-mail to The Associated Press on Tuesday the ceremony for the 36-year-old Cruz and the 41-year-old Bardem was a small one that only family members attended.

Cruz’s wedding dress was designed by a longtime friend, fashion designer John Galliano.

Cruz and Bardem are from Spain. They appeared together in the 2008 Woody Allen romantic comedy “Vicky Cristina Barcelona.” Cruz won a supporting-actress Oscar for her role.

Bardem won a supporting-actor Oscar for the 2007 crime thriller “No Country for Old Men.”

Lindsay Lohan Dresses As Nun, Licks A Gun For ‘Machete’ Poster

It also stars Jessica Alba, Robert De Niro and Michelle Rodriguez. “Machete” hits theaters on September 3.

Chris Harrison: ‘Plenty Of Blame To Go Around’ In Jake & Vienna Split


Jake Pavelka and Vienna Girardi scored major headlines in June when they split, but host of “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” franchises, Chris Harrison, thinks the former couple is going to regret the very public way they handled their break-up.

“They both made such major mistakes,” Chris told Billy Bush on Monday forAccess Hollywood and “The Billy Bush Show.”

Chris said he thinks both parties are equally to blame for the messy way their split was handled – Vienna sold her story to a tabloid, Jake told his to People and the two sparred in a reunion on national television that saw Vienna storm off in tears.

“I think she’s young, she’s inexperienced and I think she made mistakes that later on in life, she’ll be like, ‘OK, that was silly,’” Chris said. “He’s done incredibly silly, kind of self-centered things.

“I think they both threw dynamite into this well,” the reality host continued. “I don’t think there’s a winner or loser. You have a couple that broke up. I don’t think there was anyone in the right or wrong here. They both have plenty of blame to go around.”

When asked if the two parties loved the fame that came with being on “The Bachelor” franchise, Chris told Billy one of them sure did – Jake — but the other was more along for the ride – Vienna.

“I don’t think she wants [fame], I don’t think she hates it and doesn’t enjoy it, I think she enjoyed some of the things that they did,” Chris told Billy. “Jake obviously much more so — loves the limelight, loves the Hollywood life, whether you call him a fame wh***, whatever, which Vienna did, I think that might be a little strong, but he definitely enjoys what has come his way after the show.”

Beyond “The Bachelor,” his stint on “Dancing with the Stars” Season 10 and his upcoming role on Lifetime’s “Drop Dead Diva,” Jake will return to his “Bachelor” roots later this summer. Chris revealed the pilot will make an appearance on ABC’s next arm of the franchise – “The Bachelor Pad.”

“He does have a small part in the show…. He is involved in a very small way,” Chris said. “But he’s not a cast member of the show.”

The show brings together former cast members from both “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette,” but don’t expect fancy wine-style evenings.

“It’s not really a wine show, it’s more of a margarita show,” Chris said. “It’s late summer, don’t think too hard, fun television.”
