Lindsay Lohan- Nightmare to Work With For “Glee” Cast

Recently under attack from Rosie O’Donnell’s comments, Lindsay Lohan has managed to set the cast of “Glee” ablaze with anger as well.

“A source onset told E! that Lindsay has been a “total nightmare” to work with this week,” said Guilliana Rancic.

“Lindsay turned up to the shoot at eleven a.m, said E! News Senior Correspondent Melanie Bromley. “She was three hours late. And even when she was there she was acting like she didn’t want to be there.”  “She kept disappearing and she hadn’t memorized her lines,” said Bromley.

A very telling Tweet from Dot Marie Jones cast member of “Glee,” shows her lack of enthusiasm working with Lohan.
“Gonna be a long day!! Some ppl show up late and just throw a wrench in things not cool! I’d rather be an hour early (I was) than 5 minutes late!”

“Glee” was forced to rearrange their shooting schedule and had to use a stand-in because LL was MIA for most of the day,” said Rancic.

“She spent the majority of the day in her trailer and kept going missing.” “People were constantly looking for her,” said Bromley.

Lindsay’s rep responded, “There’s no way the people couldn’t have gotten in touch with her because Lohan’s PA had a walkie talkie and was reachable all day.”

Bromley said, “The cast hates her, and while they would share a dressing room to encourage team spirit, she spent the day in her own dressing room with her entourage smoking cigarettes.”

“A highly placed source on the production team confirms that Linds was late,” said Rancic. “In fact the show had to send a car to the Chateau Marmont to retrieve her.”

Rosie Continues to Slam Lindsay Lohan

As usual, Rosie O’Donnell is no stranger to stirring up trouble. On the “Today” show last week she met with Matt Lauer and Ann Currie to discuss Lindsay Lohan again.

It’s created a fire storm online, said Ann Currie. “Are you surprised by the reaction?”

“I was actually. I didn’t think anything of it.” “ I went out to lunch and then I came home.” O’Donnell was actually surprised that perhaps Lindsay Lohan and her family would be upset by her comments?

“I did meet her when she was young and on my show,” said O’Donnell. “And then we’ve all seen what’s happened in the last decade and it’s tragic.”

“I don’t want to make it sound like everything you said about her is harsh,” said Lauer.  In your blog yesterday you said, “Lindsay Lohan is worth saving.  She’s the only one who can do it before it’s too late. I hope she finds her value off camera and then when she returns on camera, she’ll wow us all once more at peace.”

Then O’Donnell had to ruin her kind words by comparing Lindsay Lohan to Whitney Houston. Slamming both stars, she claimed that Houston was irresponsible and caught up in a world of addiction. “Watching Whitney Houston’s funeral thinking why wouldn’t people say what they knew,” said O’Donnell. “We all knew when she would not show up to do this show, not to do my show.”

Immediately she compared Houston to Lohan. “To look at Lindsay Lohan you can’t help but feel for her.”

Matt Lauer wondered what this knew unapologetic Rosie O’Donnell interview would stir up. Rosie was right about one thing, “There’s gonna be a whole nother controversy.”

Adam Levine on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” Yesterday

The always handsome and humble Adam Levine sat down with “Ellen” yesterday.  Levine is a three time Grammy Award Winner, lead singer of Maroon 5, and a popular coach on the hit show “The Voice.”

Not only is Levine gorgeous but he’s single ladies. “You look very handsome as always,” smiled Ellen.

“Let’s talk about how many women love you,” said Ellen. “There are a lot of women who love you.”

“Including Jennifer Love Hewitt,” said Ellen. Hewitt was on the show recently and told the world she’s very interested Levine. “She was actually on the show soliciting you,” said Ellen. “She was saying that you were her choice.”

” I feel so dirty when you say soliciting,” Levine replied. “I heard about that. That was really aggressive,” he laughed.

“I heard she was really sweet and flattering,” said Levine.  “God beautiful life, beautiful woman says nice things about you.”  What he didn’t say is that she was his first choice.  Apparently he didn’t seem to feel the same way about her at all. That’s hardly embarrassing on national television for Hewitt.

“Do you want me to set you up?” said Ellen. Levine put his head down on his hand clearly disinterested in being “set up.”

Poor Tony, DJ at the “Ellen” show, and friends of Levine was “set up” by Ellen.  In a hilarious skit he sang Levine’s popular song “Moves Like Jagger” and knew none of the words.  “I know the beat. I don’t know lyrics but I love that song,” said Tony. “I’m having to re-evaluate our friendship,” joked Levine.

“The Voice continues to do very, very well doesn’t it,” said Ellen.
Levine relied “It’s overwhelming that the show did so well. I don’t think that we expected it to do so well. But now that it did, we’re just ecstatic  beyond belief.”

Ellen asked Levine who he thinks will win “The Voice” this season.
“I really think that there are a lot of people that should win,” said Levine. “I think last year it was pretty clear that Javier Colon was gonna win.”

“That doesn’t really exist this year,” said Levine. “I think that anybody given the right moment at the right time can win it.”

Maroon 5′s new CD hits stores June 26.
“The Voice” airs Monday and Tuesday nights on NBC.

Rosie O’Donnell Attacks Lindsay Lohan on the “Today” Show

Access Hollywood Live hosts Kit Hoover and Billy Bush spoke about the feud that Rosie O’Donnell erupted over Lindsay Lohan on the “Today” show Tuesday.

Hoover described Rosie’s remarks yesterday on Access Hollywood as a “war of words on Lindsay Lohan.”

Lohan has been cast as Elizabeth Taylor in Lifetime’s new movie Liz & Dick. “Is it a good idea to cast her in this movie?” asked Matt Lauer on the “Today” show, with good old Rosie poking her nose where it simply didn’t belong once again.

“No,” said Rosie. Rosie jumped on Lohan stating, “I feel very sorry for her. I think she needs a lot of help she needs a lot of time away.”

She doesn‘t believe Lohan should be given any second chances. Of all people, Rosie O‘Donnell needs to take a good look in the mirror.

According to Rosie, Lohan doesn’t deserve the role, “Because she’s had a lot of trouble doing every single movie including SNL.”

“She was out and not at rehearsal and I think she’s not in a place to work,” barked O’Donnell. “I don’t think she’s right for the role and I don’t think she’s capable at this point.”

“I think Rosie’s coming from a good place,” said Kit Hoover. “But the way she’s saying it looks like she’s dissing Lindsay and I don’t think that’s what she’s trying to do.”

While it sure didn’t look like she was complimenting the young woman. Billy Bush thought that the “Today” show made a wise choice to have Rosie on because it made for good television. Bush said, “They brought Rosie in for a good reason on the “Today” show.  Professionals say it can be called the lightening rod segment, the fire-starter segment.”

Afterwards, Billy Bush claimed LL’s dad Michael fired back at Rosie with these words for her on twitter.  “Of ALL people, I can’t believe YOU would judge my daughter or her ability. Second chances aren’t up to you, they’re up to God.”

Lindsay Lohan herself was too kind when asked how she felt about the nasty comments. “It’s funny that someone that you don’t know at all can say something so intrusive and so knowing,” said Lohan.

Kit Hoover closed the segment praising Lohan, “I think she’s going to be great in this movie.”

James Van Der Beek-Will There Be a “Dawson’s Creek” Reunion?

James Van Der Beek appeared on Live! with Kelly this morning to promote his new show “Don’t Trust the B in Apt. 23.”

Of course, Kelly had to ask about the rumors that baby-faced Van Der Beek and the cast of the old show “Dawson’s Creek” may be having a reunion.  It’s hard not to notice that the young man still looks exactly like the character he played on the show “Dawson Leery.”
“Tell us now James,” said Kelly. “Will there be a Dawson’s Creek reunion?”  Kelly told him, “That’s the number one question we get asked on Twitter.”

“I feel like it’s the number one question we all get asked. Nobody’s producing it. Nobody’s writing it. It’s just something that comes up in the press,” said Van Der Beek.

“And Michelle Williams is always like absolutely. I think because her character is dead,”   smiled Van Der Beek.

“You look the same,” said co-host Mario Lopez. “Might as well.”

“Would you be up for it though?” inquired Lopez.  “Why not,” smiled Van Der Beek.

“I hear congratulations are in order,” said Kelly.  “Just had another baby. A boy this time.”

Proud papa Van Der Beek also has a gorgeous little blond, blue-eyed baby girl who’s 19-months-old.

“That’s a great thing to be close in age,” said Mario Lopez.  “It will be great eventually I’m told,” laughed Van Der Beek.

He was worried at first about the new arrival of his son because of his daughter Olivia. “She gave no signs whatsoever that she was gonna be cool with another baby in the house,” he said. “If my wife held another baby she’d cry and try to push him out of her arms.”

But luckily Van Der Beek stated, “As soon as her brother was born, she was totally cool with it.”

Van Der Beek is having a lot of fun with his new television series “Don’t Trust the B in Apt. 23.”

“We just created this crazy monster out of things that have happened to me. Things that other actors do. It’s just this crazy bizarro version of me that I have so much fun with.”

“They say that the hardest thing for an actor to do is to play themselves. But your playing a much more dialed up version of yourself?” asked Kelly.

“It’s on another dial,” laughed Van Der Beek.

I guess we’ll have to watch the show to see what the young actor is talking about. In the meantime, we’ll be crossing our fingers for a reunion of “Dawson’ Creek.”

“Don’t Trust the B in Apt. 23” airs Wednesday’s at 9:30 pm on ABC.

Dr. Drew thinks Giuliana Rancic’s Pregnancy is Great News

With all of the magazines and tabloids out there jumping at the chance to talk about Giuliana Rancic’s pregnancy, receiving sound feedback from Dr. Drew last night was definitely refreshing.

On his television show, entitled simply DR. DREW, he started out with a short clip from the “Today” show with Giuliana and her husband Bill Rancic beaming with excitement with the news of their upcoming baby yesterday.

“The last time she was on the Today show she revealed that she had breast cancer,” said Dr. Drew. “Today of course she announced that she had much happier news.”

“We are finally having a baby. After years of trying,” said Rancic glowing with happiness yesterday on the “Today” show.

“And you’re using having a baby via a gestational carrier rather than using a surrogate,” said Ann Currie.  “Which means this baby is biologically your baby.”

“It’s our embryo and we’re using a gestational carrier to bring it to term,” said Giuliana’s husband Bill Rancic.

Dr. Drew accepted live calls on his show last night regarding Rancic’s baby news. It seemed that each caller was so concerned about Giuliana having a baby with her recent cancer scare and her work. Dr. Drew squashed all of the negativity and made it very clear that this is absolutely wonderful for Rancic.

One caller asked Dr Drew, “I was curious from you with all that Giuliana is going through with cancer, her show, and now this new surrogacy relationship, I was wondering if you thought maybe she was taking on too much too fast?”

To which the Doctor replied, “I don’t actually.  She’s obviously a hyper-achiever and she’s going to have to slow down once the baby comes.” “I suspect when the baby does come along things will slow up,” said Dr. Drew. “Children change everything and she’s been through a lot of things, but children have a way of re-focusing and re-prioritizing.”

“I just wish her the best,” said the Doctor. “I think it’s a great thing.”

“So you guys are worried about Giuliana taking on too much, said Dr. Drew after another caller had the same concerns as the first. “Listen let’s turn it around,” said the Doctor. “Thank God she’s a hyper-achiever. I’m a hyper-achiever. I’m kind of like her a little bit.”

Dr. Drew sees the upcoming baby as, “Inspiration for other people that can live with medical illness and really flourish.”

Lindsay Lohan Back to Her Old Ways?

“So just when we thought Lindsay Lohan was on the comeback trail, recent incidents are raising doubts about her recovery,” said Giuliana Rancic
on E! News.

According to E! News there have been allegations of bar-fighting and alcohol usage.

Was she actually caught on camera slapping another woman?

After the judge told LL, “Stop the nightclubbing and focus on your work,” Lohan still continues to ignore the judge’s advice entirely.

Lohan was spotted on surveillance video at Smoke and Mirrors nightclub smacking a girl after the girl began chatting with one of Lohan’s guy friends.

Lohan’s rep claimed this was “An enormous hoax Lindsay was supposedly at home when this happened.”  Unfortunately for Lohan, cameras don’t lie. West Hollywood’s Sheriff’s Department are investigating the matter.

To add to her seemingly never-ending problems, she was in anther fight at the same nightclub this past Wednesday night. TMZ is reporting that Lohan was in the same club with her father. After Lohan reportedly overheard smart alack remarks about the pair in a nightclub together, LL couldn’t control her temper and screamed obscenities at the girl she felt was making fun of her.

To make matters worse for LL she was recently spotted at the Hard Rock Hotel music Mansion completely intoxicated.  A source told E! News that he actually witnessed Lohan really drunk last Friday night, and saw her pouring vodka into a water bottle.  The source told E! News, “She was drinking and acting really out of it. She was slurring her words and stumbling…She was a mess.”

In a recent poll taken by E! News 58 percent of the show’s fans believe that LL is back to her old habits and partying ways.

Daughter of the famous singer Lionel Richie, Ellen asked the young star about her father.
“Your dad was here and his album just hit number one,” said Ellen.

“His last number one was in 1986 and I was five,” said Richie. Very recently Lionel Richie had a special on CBS including many country stars singing along to his iconic music.

Now that the beautiful young woman is thirty, she can appreciate her father’s talent. “I was just in Vegas with him when he did his CBS special,” said Richie.  “Watching people’s reactions to his songs and watching so many country icons come on stage with him and do their own take on the song was just something that I was really happy to see.”

Ellen asked, “Tell us something that we would not expect from Lionel Richie?  What is he into?”

The petite blond replied, “He’s always had this rule to leave work at work. He’s not the performer at home. He’s just like down-home dad.”

Ellen pulled up a darling picture of  Richie’s children on the big screen behind them horseback riding. Proud mother Richie’s kids are now ages four and two.  Ellen joked with Richie about the two-year-old on the horse.  “You actually can’t see there’s someone standing right in front of him,”  explained Richie.  “He’s not just like roaming the mountains,” laughed Richie.

Very excited about her new show “Fashion Star”, Richie said, “This idea of immediate fashion and accessible fashion is something that’s never been done before.”

“It’s a show where you get to know 14 designers and they are competing for a very big prize.  To have their collections carried in Saks Fifth Avenue, Macy’s, and H&M,” said Richie.

“The cool part is that as America’s watching these clothes go down the runway you’re able to buy them online that night or get them in the stores the very next day,” Richie stated enthusiastically.  According to Richie the clothes are selling like hotcakes.

“When you were younger were you very into fashion?” joked Ellen while old pictures of Richie dressed up as a child identical to her mother appeared on the big screen behind the ladies. “She always wanted me to dress like her,” laughed Richie. “Every picture that she has she looks ecstatic and I look mortified.”

“At what age did you say I will not dress like you anymore?” Ellen smiled.  “Like two weeks ago,” joked Richie.

Catch “Fashion Star” Tuesday’s 10/9 central on NBC.

Zac Efron Promotes His New Film “The Lucky One”

It was absolute pandemonium as girls went wild heating up the studio on “Live with Kelly” this morning.  One of Hollywood’s hottest stars Zac Efron had women of all ages in tears as he appeared on stage.

“It’s very interesting that when girls get very uber-happy they break down crying,” laughed Kelly.  “Have you noticed that?”

“I see it from time to time. It’s a good cry. It makes me happy,” said Efron.

“It’s so inappropriate and weird and I apologize,” said Kelly. “But I have to show you on the cover on Men’s Health Magazine you do have incredible rippling muscles.”

Efron explained in his new movie “The Lucky One” he had to go through extensive training as he plays a Marine in the film.

Efron trained at the Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton. “I played a Marine, so a lot of heavy training with them,” said Efron.  “More of my physical training was done with a guy named Logan and he was actually a Navy Seal.”

Coincidentally Logan is the name of the character Efron plays in the movie.

Kelly wondered after all of this difficult training, “Do you feel like you can take on anything?” Efron laughed, “There were moments during the training when you start to feel different.”

Along with intense physical exercise, Efron had to eat as many as six thousand calories in one day. He smiled, “I mainly just felt full all day.  I was eating so much food. I was in takes burping.”

In the movie “The Lucky One” Efron’s character Logan finds a photograph of a woman he believes is his good luck charm in some way.

The reason he feels this way is that at the moment his character Logan finds the photo his entire unit is blown to pieces. “So it’s that moment that sort of saved his life. Is this lady in the photograph more important than he will ever know?” said Efron.  “So he goes on a mission to find her and to thank her for saving his life,” explained the dashing young actor.

When asked about what it’s like to do steamy love scenes Efron answered, “It’s not a bad day on set. I had an amazing co-star who’s just the sweetest,” said Efron.

“The Lucky One” hits theaters this Friday April 19th.

Has being on the show “Dancing with the Stars” done more harm than good for actor Jaleel White?

White sat down with fellow alum from “Dancing with the Stars” Sherry Shepherd and the women of “The View” to talk about the rumors that having been spreading like wildfire in the tabloids about him.

“I know it gets intense in the training sessions. It was some drama on the dance floors that landed you in some hot water,” said Shepherd. “Rumors that you were fighting with your dance partner Kim Johnson,” she said.

Shepherd wanted to give the young man a chance to respond to the allegations. “Is this true what happened?” said Shepherd.

“I have really learned so much respect for these tabloids.  They just come in and take over your whole life when it comes to this show,” said White. “Kim and I are perfect. We’re fine. If you can’t see that I don’t know what else to say,” he said.

The tabloids do seem to be destroying White’s life as he’s finding himself back in court with his ex. Shepherd asked him about additional tabloid claims stating, “Your ex-girlfriend and the mother of your daughter, she made claims that you physically and you verbally abused her while you guys were together.”

“Do you wanna say anything about those allegations?” said Shepherd.

“You know I’ve said all that I can say about that,” said White. “You know that’s a two-year-old story that was drudged up by the tabloids and unfortunately the tabloids are sending us back to court.”

“Comes up every Monday when your on the show,” said Shepherd. “Yeah it’s kind of strange every Monday I have something to deal with regarding that story,” said White. “All I can do is say I appreciate her mother. Without her mother we wouldn’t have this beautiful girl. And that’s really the way I feel from my heart on this issue.”

White couldn’t answer any more questions regarding the tabloids because he is going to back to court.
