Eazy-E and Ol’ Dirty Bastard are about to perform live for the first time since … well, they died. The rap legends will take the stage as holograms this fall!
Promoters for the annual “Rock the Bells” hip hop festival in September and October have announced a “virtual” Eazy and a “virtual” ODB will perform.

3 months ago
Lindsay Lohan can’t catch a break these days.
Last week, her new movie The Canyons was rejected by the Sundance Film Festival, and now South By Southwest (SXSW) has reportedly followed suit.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, “quality issues” was the hilarious reason cited, with one source labeling the Bret Easton Ellis film “a monstrosity.”
Good or bad, the recent New York Times feature entitled “Here Is What Happens When You Cast Lindsay Lohan in Your Movie” did little to help the film.
The paper describes the “chaos” surrounding the often-drunk Lindsay Lohan, from $46,000

Michael Lohan: Lindsay is NOT a Hooker!
4 months ago
Michael Lohan is adamant that daughter Lindsay Lohan is NOT a hooker, dammit … despite being quoted just hours earlier saying that she’s basically a high-priced escort.
As we reported earlier, a new Star/Radar expose claims Lohan is an actual, highly-paid escort. The celebrity gossip publication quotes MiLo saying she’s “getting paid to date rich men.”
According to the reports, these “dates” can last up to a week and the men shower her with lavish, six-figure gifts like jewelry and money – several of her alleged clients are even named.
But now, Michael insists he was misquoted.

Lindsay Lohan, The Canyons Rejected By Sundance Film Festival!
4 months ago
The producers of Lindsay Lohan’s upcoming indie film The Canyons are flat out stunned that the movie has been rejected by The Sundance Film Festival.
Obviously, they believe the snub is largely Lindsay’s fault.
The Canyons ClipSundance originally reached out to producers to screen the movie at the annual event, and The Canyons producers were led to believe it was a lock.
Not the case. Sundance passed, reason not given.
Producers believe – and not unreasonably – that the about-face may be due to their troubled star and the negative attention she brings to … well,

Promoting her new film Silver Linings Playbook, The Hunger Games heroine rocked a sleek, straight new ‘do, bright red lipstick and black-polished fingernails.
J-Law wore a strapless black and red Christian Dior Haute Couture gown and black Dior shoes, a somewhat severe, gothic look that was nonetheless elegant.
A fine line, for sure, but it works. How does it stack up with some of her past red carpet looks, though? That’s for you to

Robert Pattinson Interview: On Arguing with Adele, Fighting Douchebaggery
11 months ago
Have we mentioned recently how much we adore Robert Pattinson?
The actor stopped by George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight yesterday and was his usual funny, humble, self-deprecating self, opening up about Cosmopolis; his (failed) attempt at the Cannes Film Festival to not sound like a “douchebag;” and his recent fight with Adele.
Wait… what?!?
“I had this argument with Adele, which is probably the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever said,” Pattinson tells the host in the video below. “[I told her] you know, you can just really reach for it!! And she was like, ‘You do realize, I’m, like, the

Sources confirm to TMZ that Kardashian has demanded her attorneys take action against any outlet that runs with the cover story in this week’s NW, an Australian tabloid that reports Kim has a drug problem.

Sean Penn isn’t a fan of us right now. Or you, or anyone else.
On Friday at the Cannes Film Festival, the actor-activist slammed the media and public for abandoning Haiti after the devastating earthquake in 2010.
“It’s not only celebrities who went for a day,” Penn told reporters of his perceived injustice. “It’s the whole f–king world. It’s all of you. The reason we have ‘Haiti fatigue’ is because there was never a commitment in the first place.”
A vocal proponent of humanitarian aid, Penn also called upon President Barack Obama to meet with Haiti’s newly elected president Michel Joseph

Susan Sarandon is an outspoken liberal who has once again generated controversy with a statement.
Bill Donohue, president of the Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights, says Sarandon is “a despicable person” who “doesn’t know what she’s talking about” when it comes to the pope’s past.
During an interview over the weekend at the Hamptons Film Festival, the Oscar winner talked about sending a copy of the book “Dead Man Walking” to the pope and said: “The last one [Pope John Paul II], not this Nazi one we have now.”
Of course, it has come out that Pope Benedict actually was a member
