Lindsay Lohan’s mom Dina Lohan has been named the Craziest Hollywood Mom in a quirky new Mother’s Day online poll. The reality TV star beat the likes of Britney Spears, Courtney Love and Candy Spelling on the list of shame, compiled by website HollyScoop.
Dina Lohan was named top of the crazies because she’s “a total enabler for her easily-influenced daughter Lindsay, who is on yet another dangerous downward spiral of hard partying,” according to the website.
‘Octo-mum’ Nadia Suleman came in second and Courtney Love finished third. Joan Rivers and former U.S. Vice-President candidate Sarah Palin also made the top five.
American actress/singer Lena Horne has died. She was 92. The star passed away at New York-Presbyterian Hospital on Sunday, May 9, but her cause of death was unknown as WENN went to press. Horne shot to fame in 1943 when she starred in film musical “Stormy Weather” and the title track became her signature song. During her career, she became a voice for the civil rights movement in the U.S. and was one of Hollywood’s first black pin-ups.
She was struck by tragedy in the early 1970s when her husband, son and father died within a period of 12 months. Horne announced her retirement in 1980, but in 1981 she put on an award-winning one-woman show, “Lena Horne: The Lady and Her Music”, on Broadway and in London.
She went on to win a string of Grammy awards, was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and was inducted into the International Civil Rights Walk of Fame by the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site.
Horne is survived by her daughter, Gail Lumet Buckley.
Hip-hop mogul Sean ‘P. Diddy’ Combs went to prison on Wednesday, April 28, to pay a visit to incarcerated rapper Lil Wayne. The Bad Boy boss was approved by officials to meet with the “Lollipop” hitmaker, who was jailed in March after pleading guilty to gun possession charges.
According to the New York Daily News, Combs visited Wayne, real name Dwayne Carter Jr., at the Eric M. Taylor correctional facility and was given one hour to talk. The publication also reports that he did not have private transportation to the facility and was bused over on the prison’s public bus.
Combs escaped a jail sentence of his own after he was found not guilty of weapons possession and other charges related to a shoot-out at a New York City nightclub in 1999.
Seems no amount of money can even stop people from missing one another, the same can be said for Rihanna and new boyfriend Matt Kemp. While on her worldwide tour she’s having to settle for video messages and text. With Rihanna trekking around Europe, and Matt’s own busy schedule means they won’t see each other again until June.
Rihanna tells Britain’s Daily Mirror, “I was hoping he would be able to come to London but he’s working. And I’m touring and shooting videos for my next single, so it’s going to be seven weeks before I see him again. It’ll probably be when I get back to America that we can hook up properly.”
“We have to make do with Skype and phone, but I miss him. I can’t wait to see him again.” Kemp is a star slugger for the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Talk about being able to keep a secret from the world. Sandra Bullock not only speaks on her divorce in a People Magazine interview, but she introduces her son Louis Bardo Bullock to the world. A baby she initially adopted with Jesse James in January and kept away from family and friends for 5 months. Thank god Sandra adopted Louis from right here in the states as opposed to going overseas. She spoke to people about her new baby:
He’s just perfect, I can’t even describe him any other way, It’s like he’s always been a part of our lives.”
She spoke briefly on the divorce saying:
“Yes, I have filed for divorce,” said Sandra. “I’m sad and I am scared.”
Jesse released a statement in regards to Sandy, baby, and the divorce:
“The decision to let my wife end our marriage, and continue the adoption of Louis on her own, has been the hardest. The love I have for Louis cannot be put to words. Not having him around to love and to hold has left a huge hole in my heart.
“Sandy is the love of my life, but considering the pain and devastation I have caused her, it would be selfish to not let her go. Right now it is time for me to beat this addiction that has taken two of the things I love the most in life.”
We wish Sandra and Louis well, along with peace from the paparazzi.
Apparently this time she’s going a little more urban with it as well. Lindsay Lohan recently wrote on Twitter about being inspired by Madonna in her new studio album. The “Mean Girls” actress opened up that the track which has Madonna influence is written by Kara DioGuardi and J.R. Rotem.
Lindsay also confirms she will hook up with rapper Snoop Dogg in another song. “Snoop dogg is on it… and i can’t say the others yet!! kara d and jr rotem wrote a track that has a madonna undertone.. shhhh lol,” she tweeted.
In an effort to promote her upcoming album “Amazing” Miami siren Trina graces the cover of King Magazine. Wait, didn’t they shut down and relaunch like five different times? Well anyways, they choose Trina for the relaunch, seems her covers are always big sellers for them. Don’t forget Trina’s album drops May 4th, be sure to check it out.
Maybe it’s a case of Akon sticking up for his signee Lady Gaga and all, but he held no punches in a recent interview with Vibe:
“Aw man, that’s not even any competition,” Akon tells Vibe. “You are actually giving Christina too much credit. She always had her cool little look and way about how she went about things. But soon as Gaga came out everything switched up. Christina stepped out of her own shell to become something different. And the crazy thing is Christina is really talented. She has unlimited range when it comes to singing. Her voice is out of here. I just think she just needs to believe in herself more. I think sometimes she gets insecure because of all of the success Gaga has had not realizing that she was already successful before Gaga came out.”Akon continues, “Christina shouldn’t have anything to prove or anyone to compete with. I miss the old Christina Aguilera. I like the old one better than the new one. Honestly, Gaga and Christina could probably get together and do something that’s amazing. But that’s impossible if they are both trying to do the same exact thing musically.”
Umm wasn’t Christina already a huge star before Gaga hit the scene?
As most of the globe anxiously awaits the new Sex & The City feature film, a 2nd trailer with new footage was released today to titillate those of us waiting. In it we see Adian makes an appearance, sexual Samantha is back, and of course the fashion. Take a look at the trailer below:
Incarcerated Lil Wayne is set to become a star of a documentary which was filmed as the rapper was counting down to jail. The “Lollipop” hitmaker’s pal, DJ Scoob Doo, was on hand to capture the star’s final days of freedom on camera as March sentencing date for a weapons possession charge loomed.
He began his year-long stint in maximum-security New York prison Rikers Island in March but fans won’t be without Wayne for long – the DJ is in talks with a number of U.S. cable networks to release the home video footage as a behind-the-scenes TV documentary named “Road to Rikers”.
DJ Doo tells hip-hop publication XXLMag, “You could just imagine what I could have (filmed) just being with the team, and being with Wayne on his countdown to jail and even when he didn’t know he was going to jail.” Last week Wayne launched a new website in a bid to stay in contact with his fans during his stint behind bars.
