Lindsay Lohan has been off probation for under two weeks and is already making more headlines with alleged nightclub antics, though she denies causing trouble. She is accused of getting into an altercation with a woman in a club last week, with the accuser filing an incident report alleging battery at the hands of Lohan. The woman claims Lindsay got into it with her at a nightclub Thursday. She says she was talking to a male friend of Lindsay’s, which Lohan did not care for. That’s when she began pushing, shoving and hitting … allegedly. Law enforcement sources say they will investigate these claims , like they would any other incident like this, to determine their validity before proceeding. LL’s rep, Steve Honig, the hardest working man in LA, tells TMZ: ” Lindsay Lohan was absolutely not involved in any sort of altercation. This is clearly another case of someone looking for money and 15 minutes of fame.” According to sources close to Lohan, she denies any wrongdoing in this case, saying she wasn’t even THERE, but rather at home that night watching TV. The actress is said to be particularly frustrated by this accusation, since even when she stays home and avoids trouble, she feels it seems to find her anyway. FYI, she was supposedly watching Homeland on Showtime. Good show. [Photo: WENN.com]
One Direction’s ‘What Makes You Beautiful’ rumored for Fox comedy, which will also feature Whoopi Goldberg. By Jocelyn Vena Lindsay Lohan Photo: FilmMagic Lindsay Lohan is confirmed to make an appearance on “Glee.” The announcement comes in a wave of casting news for the hit Fox comedy, which includes a spot for comedian and talk-show host Whoopi Goldberg. A rep for Lohan confirmed the casting to E! News . In a May episode of the show, Lohan is rumored to be onboard to play herself as a judge at Nationals. Lindsay’s mother, Dina, once took issue with the show for poking fun at her after the show included a scene in which Katie Couric informed Jane Lynch’s character, Sue Sylvester, that she beat out Dina and her dog Sparky to make the list of the “world’s biggest losers.” Dina had said, “It’s a shame as the dance numbers are amazing, but the writers need to be nice and more creative as opposed to being hurtful.” Lohan has recently been making strides to get back into the acting spotlight. She hosted “Saturday Night Live” this season and is in talks to play the late Elizabeth Taylor in a small-screen biopic. As for Goldberg, she’ll be in three episodes in May, playing a New York Academy of the Dramatic Arts professor (Carmen Tibideaux) who travels to Ohio to meet with Kurt and Rachel about possible acceptance into the school. In other “Glee” news, rumor has it One Direction might be following in the Wanted’s footsteps , getting covered on the show. Matthew Morrison reportedly told the Sun that the cast will be covering the boy band’s single, “What Makes You Beautiful.” “I’ve just heard of them, they’re really taking over the States,” Morrison said. “We are covering one of their songs on ‘Glee’: ‘What Makes You Beautiful.’ I need to YouTube it to practice.” A rep for the band hadn’t responded to MTV News’ request for confirmation by press time.

So it looks like Lindsay Lohan is trying to get her career back on track with a comeback of sorts – I’m not sure hosting Saturday Night Live and banging a weird old photographer can really be considered a comeback – and what better way to get back to your old self than by changing your hair color. Girls are weird. Anyway, I guess she was at her most popular back when she was a freckled face ginger and wants to get back to that Lindsay Lohan . Personally I want the drunken fire crotch Lindsay back, but I guess I don’t get any say in this decision.
Jack White’s ‘Saturday Night Live’ performance proves he has awesome to spare, in Bigger Than the Sound. By James Montgomery Jack White and Lindsay Lohan on “Saturday Night Live” Photo: NBC The most distracting thing on “Saturday Night Live” this weekend wasn’t Lindsay Lohan’s face (or overall lack of preparation); it was Jack White and his general awesomeness. This is, of course, nothing new. Back in 2010, when writing about the White Stripes’ “Under Great White Northern Lights” film, I compared White to “a woodblock printer, a missionary, a wheelwright [and] a buckskin-clad frontiersman” (among other things), all of which are thoroughly awesome in their own way. Shoot, before that, I praised White for phoning a Chicago radio station — from Spain, nonetheless — to accuse them of cowardice (always awesome) after they played a leaked copy of the Stripes’ Icky Thump album. ( White subsequently rationalized the call to me thusly : “Jack White the singer and songwriter isn’t reacting to you; it’s the president of Third Man Records calling you and asking for an explanation.” And referring to yourself in the third person is most definitely awesome.) In reality, there is no end to White’s inherent awesomeness. He makes his entire road crew dress in matching suits and bowler hats. He haggled like a pro (and wore an excellent fedora) on “American Pickers.” He runs his entire Third Man empire out of a record shop/ warehouse located next to some train tracks in a less-than-desirable section of Nashville. He’s recorded with auctioneers and the Insane Clown Posse (and just about everyone else). He made the “Treat Me Like Your Mother” video. And the sentiments he expressed when announcing the end of the White Stripes — namely, “The White Stripes belong to you now and you can do with it whatever you want” — well, they were certainly incredibly awesome too. Anyway, here’s the point: As you are probably aware, next month, White will release his first solo album, Blunderbuss. And this weekend on “Saturday Night Live,” while Lohan flailed, he performed a pair of songs from that album: sublime first single “Love Interruption” and the spastic, space-truckin’ stomper “Sixteen Saltines.” They were notable for several reasons, the least of which being that, unlike the recent spate of “SNL” musical, uh, efforts — I’m looking at you, Lana Del Rey and Karmin — they were actually really good. And the pair of songs probably served as a reminder to some about White’s power and prowess. But that’s not what made them so distracting. Rather, it was the fact that, for reasons apparent only to him, White decided to bring two backing bands to the show: one all female, the other entirely male. And sure, you could probably argue that the lithe “Love Interruption” could only be played by females, while the more muscular “Sixteen Saltines” benefited from male musicians ( Noel Gallagher certainly believes both of these things to be true ). In fact, that might actually be why White did it, though I’d prefer to think that he had another reason: Because he is awesome. From his earliest days, White has excelled at turning the most minute of details into the most important of points: everything from the Stripes’ unflagging color scheme to the “official tartans” the band had made for their “aluminum anniversary” (that’s 10 years, FYI). It’s sort of what makes him stand out from his rock-star contemporaries — he genuinely seems to care about stuff like connecting the dots and cultivating a mystique. And his “SNL” stunt is just the latest example of this; not only were his backing bands uniform in their sex, they wore color-coordinated, outfits too. Is there anyone else who would go to these lengths, for no particular reason? Of course not. And yet, the best thing about White is the fact that, even though we’ve come to expect the unexpected from him, we’re always surprised by what he does. Or how effortlessly he seems to do it. Blowing the likes of Lana Del Rey off the “SNL” stage isn’t difficult, but doing it with style to spare — well, that’s something else entirely. It’s awesome. And it’s inherently Jack White. He’s back and badder than ever, with two new bands at his disposal. For his next trick, perhaps he’ll try to revive Lohan’s career — and who knows? He might even succeed.

Lindsay Lohan hosted Saturday Night Live last night, and … meh. We wouldn’t say she bombed last by any means, but we expected better. Maybe all the hype and expectations were just too much, or the show itself just isn’t that good. In any case, it left something to be desired from start to finish. Lindsay Lohan Saturday Night Live Opening Monologue Several late changes – such as ditching a singing monologue in favor of one with cameos from Jimmy Fallon and Jon Hamm (above) – may not have helped matters. Some critics and fans are calling it an epic fail ( EW asks in its headline if she was the worst host all season), but people are also predisposed to hate on Lohan. Linds did look a bit tired, worn out and nervous, but that’s to be expected, and she can’t take all the blame for mediocre skits. Do you agree?

There isn’t a whole lot out there I enjoy more than some pictures of a hot chick in her bikini on the beach, unless that same hot chick is having trouble keeping her bikini on. That’s exactly what’s happening here with bikini hottie Leilani Dowding struggling to keep her bikini bottoms from falling off. So hot. A bare booty flash on the beach is a good way to get my attention. Well done. Now let’s see you splashing around in the waves while your top “accidentally” falls off in the surf. Next time.
We would’ve loved to use the headline “Cat DOMINATES at Shell Game” here, but dude only went 2-for-3. Which is still good (better than most people even), just not dominant. Keep practicing, kitty! Nevertheless, you gotta respect the sheer focus and determination exhibited by the feline subject of this fun viral video. He is LOCKED IN on the popular gambling pastime. Watch in awe at this cat’s quasi-mastery of the shell game below: Cat Playing Shell Game
Lindsay Lohan shot an interview with Matt Lauer for Today this morning (it airs Thursday) to promote her SNL appearance, and it was a no-holds-barred sit-down. Of course, she repeated many of the same talking points as a year ago, when she also sat down with Lauer and professed that she had her $h!t together. Ouch. Excerpts from what LiLo had to say this time around: On partying hardcore : “It’s not my thing anymore. I went out, actually, a few months ago with a friend. And I was so uncomfortable. Not because I felt tempted, just because it was just the same thing that it always was before.” “And it just wasn’t fun. I’ve become more of a homebody. I like that.” On whether she was in denial last year : “Definitely and I think it was … it’s a scary thing to have to kind of express to people … I wasn’t as comfortable with myself then.” “I think it was a fear factor that I had. I had to get that wakeup call.” On whether the industry can trust her : “I think that takes time. I think that it’s actions. People can say things all they want, but I still need to go through the process of proving myself … keeping my – can’t say the word – but stuff together.” On using SNL to clear her name : “I don’t want people to have that reason to be scared anymore. So being able to have this opportunity with SNL , I’m just gonna do what I’m supposed to do, and enjoy doing it, and do it as best as I can.” On her role in the Elizabeth Taylor biopic : “We’re in the middle of casting and figuring, we start production soon. I’ve been doing tons of research. But I’ve always kind of researched her. She’s always been a fascinating woman to me.” “I’m really honored. And I will not let anyone down, especially myself.” Basically, Lindsay Lohan is now the epitome of a straight-arrow homebody, according to Lindsay Lohan. What do you think? Can she really turn it around and stay clean?
Felony, schmelony. Brooke Mueller is unlikely to spend any time in jail due to her recent arrest for cocaine possession. Sources tell TMZ that Mueller’s attorney is hammering out a plea bargain with Colorado prosecutors that will result in a “deferred prosecution” for his client. Translation: she will be forced to perform community service and take drug education classes as the result of her December 2 arrest – but will avoid prison altogether. Mueller was arrested in late 2011 for allegedly assaulting a woman in a nightclub. A count of felony possession of cocaine with intent to distribute was tacked on last week, but Charlie Sheen’s ex-wife is simply due in court on April 2, insiders confirm. At that point, unless negotiations between lawyers fall apart, she will enter a plea and receive a light sentence. Raise your hand if you’re surprised.
