Actress Lindsay Lohan recently ended a very rocky relationship with DJ Samantha Ronson. There’s been so much tabloid press over the breakup it’s sickening, with rumors swirling that Ronson was cheating, that she recently got her locks changed, and that Linds is desperate, suicidal, on drugs, etc. Say what you want about Lohan, she is a decent actress with solid comic timing. Post-breakup, she starred in a “Funny or Die” video that spoofs an eHarmony personal ad. Lohan pokes fun at herself and the tabloid mania that surrounds her every move. The newly single actress says she’s ”looking for someone I can spend the rest of my life with… or at least the rest of my probation with.” See the vid here.

Kim Kardashian recently attended the opening of some hot new party hole in a warm state most of us don’t live in. At the event, Kim revealed that one of her family members plans to go under the knife. Says Kim, “Someone in the Kardashian family will soon have plastic surgery. I can’t tell you who, but someone in my family will look totally different and viewers will see it all on the show very soon.” It seems too obvious that it would be Bruce, who from the looks of it is no stranger to plastic surgery. Perhaps one of the girls? What do you think, is Kim yanking our chain or will one of the Kards soon sport a brand new face?

Apparently Canadian politeness does have its limits. Just a few days ago, actor Billy Bob Thornton and his band the Boxmasters were touring the country with legend Willie Nelson. The band has since pulled out of the tour, after audiences reacted negatively following Thornton’s testy interview on a Canadian radio show.
Thornton refused to answer host Jian Ghomeshi’s questions because he had the nerve to mention his Oscar-winning acting and screenwriting career. (Hey Billy, at least he didn’t bring up your history as a creepy asshole.) BBT wouldn’t answer simple questions and ended the interview by refusing to play with his band, who performed an instrumental without him. It seems BBT doesn’t want to be seen as your typical actor-turned-musician, but as a spoiled diva.
The next day the band played Toronto and was received with a collective ”Boo! Hiss!” from the crowd. BBT forgot that a country sometimes listens to its radio shows and reads entertainment news. Soon after, a message appeared on Willie Nelson’s official website, announcing that the Boxmasters were pulling out of the Canadian tour.
See the astonishingly ass-y interview here.

This pair goes down as one of the weirdest celebrity couples to date. Smashing Pumpkins front man Billy Corgan recently attended Bravo’s second annual “A-list Awards” with a special lady in tow. I picture Mr. Corgan going for an arty girl, one who doesn’t wear much makeup and has her hair dyed a strange color. She probably has a quirky haircut too and wears slightly unflattering, avant garde clothes, kind of a low-key, hipster Tilda Swinton. But apparently I give the Corg more credit than he deserves, because his date du jour was the trashtastic Tila Tequila. Ok, maybe if you were on the rebound from a relationship with the girl described above, you’d go for a splash of Tequila–but just a splash.
The pair looked exceedingly chummy while posing on the red carpet, and it seems their evening together may have continued behind closed (car) doors. Really, Billy? Really?

The always loopy Brittany Murphy appeared on the Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson last week to promote a new movie premiering on Lifetime. The interview was pretty dull but one aspect stood out. Murphy, who hails from Jersey, spoke in a British accent. My thought was that she’s practicing for a role, but then I don’t think a whole lotta roles are coming her way.
Ferguson inquires about the actress’ drinking habits–oh, just out of curiousity, I suppose–and Murphy tells him she refrains from the sauce, claiming she likes to “stay grounded.” (I see she’s following the Paula Abdul method of blanket denial.) ”This is grounded?” Ferguson jokes. Her behavior might not be substance-related; could be nerves or malnourishment, or both. Take a gander at the darling oddity below!
