Lindsay Lohan’s ‘Inferno’ Director Bashes ‘Outsized’ Jail Sentence

‘I am 100% behind Lindsay,’ Matthew Wilder tells MTV News about his Linda Lovelace biopic star. By Kara Warner Lindsay Lohan in court Tuesday Photo: MTV News Lindsay Lohan was sentenced to 90 days in jail and 90 days in rehab for violating probation on Tuesday (July 6), and one person offering the actress his unconditional support is Matthew Wilder, who will direct Lohan in “Inferno,” a biopic about ’70s porn star Linda Lovelace . “This is a sad chapter in the ongoing tragicomic circus between the tabloid media and the ‘justice’ system,” Wilder wrote in a statement to MTV News. “An outrageously outsized sentence garners attention for all the players involved, but brings only sadness to the poor soul who has to serve it. I am 100% behind Lindsay and can say the same for everyone involved in the production of ‘Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story.’ Indeed, we are proud to have this remarkable artist work on our film. And as for the haters relishing this moment, I can only quote Jesus in ‘The Last Temptation of Christ’: ‘And those who are laughing now…will be crying after.’ ” Regarding how Lohan’s sentence will affect the “Inferno” production schedule, Wilder wrote that they will shoot when “this chapter is finished, and we’ll all happily put it in our rear-view mirror.” Wilder has been steadfast with his support for his star. “I love her so much,” he told MTV News in May. “I think she is so fantastic. I am amazed every day. I’ll read some blurb in some gossip thing, and I will read the user comments that are so hateful. … It’s so weird. I think people have a really twisted, wrong impression of who she is, what she’s all about, and the bottom line is that she is a brilliant actor. We’ve worked on this movie, rehearsed it, read it, and she is great. I think she is as good as anyone in her age group. I hope this will turn the story for her a little bit and remind people that this is someone who is serious about acting and who is really different from the cartoon portrayed in the tabloid press.” Related Photos Lindsay Lohan Goes To Court The Highs And Lows Of Lindsay Lohan Related Artists Lindsay Lohan

Danielle Staub to Real Housewives of New Jersey: You Need Me!

Danielle Staub is many things – attention-starved, pornographic, spoiled, self-centered, egomaniacal, exploitive of gays – but we must add something to that list, based on a new interview with Parade : She’s right. The bat $hit crazy Real Housewife of New Jersey tells the magazine explains how this Bravo show would be nothing without her; and, really, can anyone argue with that? As much as viewers hate on Staub, they still watch her every week. “Quite possibly without me they don’t have a New Jersey Housewives,” she says. “No one would tune in to watch the ham game. Or watch Jacqueline drink wine at 1 o’clock in the afternoon. I don’t think people are entertained by that. But what they do tune in for is to watch them talking about me and me trying to stay away from them. “It’s incredible what a platform they’ve given me. So I have to say, ‘Thank you, ladies. You’re nothing without me on the show.'” She has a point, one we make each week in our Real Housewives of New Jersey reviews : Why do these people continue to associate with Danielle if they hate her so much?!? Staub was really on fire throughout the interview. A few more excerpts follow: On social networking backlash : Why do these women not want to be around me, yet all they do is talk about me, tweet about me, Facebook about me, hire people to tweet about me and Facebook about me? And even have all their kids doing the same thing? It’s a disgusting waste of time. On the Manzos : I don’t know where they are and what they are doing because I block them. I don’t find their lives to be that interesting. Ham game? I think it’s a disgusting waste of food. Does she have any regrets? Not one regret. I said it in Season One, everyone will be exposed. I meant that in a real way. I got exposed from them digging up stuff about me from 25 years ago. I haven’t dug at all. I haven’t investigated them. Teresa said at the finale, ‘I have no skeletons in my closet.’ Really? You’re 11 million dollars in debt, sweetie pie. And you’re in your 30s. On getting a spin-off : Danielle getting her own spin-off show would be fantastic. The Staub girls are a triple threat. It would be me and my daughters and then you’d get to see my entire family as a part of the show. And I do have a lot of business ventures, between my kids and I, and I’m managing their careers.

Kim Kardashian and Miles Austin Shut Down Night Club, Honor America’s Birthday

To some, the Fourth of July means friends, family and two of the cutest young artists on the planet. To others, it means private yachts, drinking and a party so exclusive that bouncers actually bar the public from entering. Count Kim Kardashian in the latter group, as she and Miles Austin stopped by a club named Avenue in Long Branch, New Jersey on Friday night. The pair shut down the place entirely, sources say, arriving around midnight and prompting the manager to take charge. “He was telling guests outside that he had special guests inside,” a witness told Hollywood Life. “Even though the club was half empty he wouldn’t let anyone in.” For a change, Kim was reportedly keen on not having her photo taken. She had security surround her and Austin at a private table all evening and: “At one point Kim got up to use the restroom and was protected by three huge bodyguards. They were keeping her hidden from the crowd.” The couple left after just an hour or so at the venue. Later in the weekend, they boarded a private yacht with the rest of the Kardashians in honor of Khloe’s birthday. These people live really tough lives.

Prosecutors Throw the Book at Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan’s day of reckoning has arrived, and it’s not looking good as far as her attempts to evade jail for skipping mandatory alcohol education classes. She has now made good on the classes, but that wasn’t true in May, when she bailed on her last hearing and ended up free on bail wearing a SCRAM device. Whether she remains free rests with Judge Marsha Revel. Court proceedings began with a victory for the troubled star. Revel ruled out the matter of the SCRAM device going off after the MTV Movie Awards June 7. The hearing is now exclusively about whether Lindsay Lohan violated probation by not attending enough alcohol ed classes at the time of the last hearing.
