Lindsay Lohan Reports To Court For Jail Transfer

Actress handcuffed in court on Tuesday morning before being taken to detention center. By Gil Kaufman Lindsay Lohan in court on Tuesday Photo: Pool/ Getty Images Following a 10-minute appearance in court on Tuesday (July 20), Lindsay Lohan was handcuffed and taken out of a Beverly Hills courtroom around 8:46 a.m. PT on her way to begin serving a 90-day jail sentence . Amid shouts of “Lindsay, I love you!” from a handful of supporters swarming the entrance to the courthouse, Lohan arrived nearly eight minutes late for the appearance, emerging from a black SUV and quickly walking through the gauntlet of fans, photographers and TV cameras on her way to the courtroom of Judge Marsha Revel. Flanked by attorney Shawn Chapman Holley , Lohan — wearing a black cropped jacket, a sleeveless green top, a black corset, tight jeans, black boots and dark sunglasses — walked quickly through the camera line and was showered by confetti by one admirer. Less than 24 hours after O.J. Simpson attorney Robert Shapiro resigned from the case, Lohan was once again represented by Holley, who began the brief court appearance by noting that she had never officially stepped down. The “Mean Girls” actress looked tired and resigned as some procedural matters were discussed. According to MSNBC, Lohan’s estranged father, Michael, shouted out, “I love you Lindsay!” as his daughter was taken away. The judge reminded reporters that there were to be no pictures of Lohan being cuffed or taken to jail. Despite the drama, the actress kept her composure and did not break down. Revel noted that there would be no house arrest, electronic monitoring, work release or furlough for Lohan, though she admitted that even she was not exactly sure of how many days the star would serve in the jail. Though sentenced to 90 days at the Century Regional Detention Center in Lynwood, because of severe overcrowding, Lohan is not expected to serve more than 25 percent of her time. That means she could be out in 23 days, at which point she will be transferred to a 90-day inpatient rehab program as part of her sentence. On Monday evening, Lohan sent what could be her final tweet before being locked up: “The only ‘bookings’ that I’m familiar with are Disney films, never thought that I’d be ‘booking’ into jail … eeeks.” People.com , quoting anonymous sources close to the 24-year-old actress, said Lohan had a rough weekend at the Pickford Lofts sober-living facility, where she checked in last week. “It’s been a rough weekend,” the source said. “She has not been able to sleep and has barely been eating. All weekend, Lindsay kept crying, chain smoking and chewing her nails.” Related Photos Lindsay Lohan Goes To Court The Highs And Lows Of Lindsay Lohan Related Artists Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan Nervous About Going To Jail

‘Never thought that I’d be ‘booking’ into jail … eeeks,’ Lohan tweeted on Monday. By Gil Kaufman Lindsay Lohan Photo: David McNew/ Getty Images With the hours ticking down until Lindsay Lohan reports to a Los Angeles-area jail to server her 90-day sentence for probation violations, she has reportedly been a nervous wreck. On Monday evening at 8 p.m. PT, she sent what could be her final tweet before being locked up, writing, “The only ‘bookings’ that I’m familiar with are Disney films, never thought that I’d be ‘booking’ into jail … eeeks.” People.com , quoting anonymous sources close to the 24-year-old actress, said she had a rough weekend at the Pickford Lofts sober-living facility, where she checked in last week. “It’s been a rough weekend,” the source said. “She has not been able to sleep and has barely been eating. All weekend, Lindsay kept crying, chain smoking and chewing her nails.” Even frequent visits from mother Dina and sister Ali, as well as ex-girlfriend Samantha Ronson and other friends, have not calmed Lohan’s anxiety about reporting for jail on Tuesday (July 20) morning. “She is a nervous, fidgety mess, and her legal team, family and friends are very concerned about her fragile state,” the source said. That anxiety was likely heightened on Monday, when Lohan made a last-minute appearance before Judge Marsha Revel and attorney Robert Shapiro announced he was resigning from the case after less than a week. Lohan has been trying to come to terms with the pending lockup, People.com said, but as the day drew closer she began to get anxious about spending 23 hours a day in a 12-by-8 foot cell in the segregated, protective-custody wing of a women’s jail facility. “She’s been picturing herself in jail and she can’t handle the idea of it,” said another anonymous friend. “She doesn’t want to go. She doesn’t think it’s safe. She doesn’t know how she’ll make it.” Related Photos Lindsay Lohan Goes To Court The Highs And Lows Of Lindsay Lohan Related Artists Lindsay Lohan

Wiz Khalifa Is A Top-Five Finalist For ‘Hottest Breakthrough MC Of 2010’!

Winner will be revealed on MTV2’s ‘Sucker Free Summit’ Sunday at noon. By Shaheem Reid Wiz Khalifa Photo: Atlantic It is here: As promised, the top-five vote-getters in our poll for “Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2010” will be revealed this week. These are the artists you guys voted for over the past month, and we can’t express enough how overwhelmed we were by your participation in this project. More than 200,000 votes came in, and they were tallied as of midnight Friday. Keep in mind, the unveiling of the names this week are the top five, but in no particular order. The winner of the “Hottest Breakthrough MC of 2010,” as voted on by the MTV News audience, will be revealed Sunday (July 25) at noon on the “Sucker Free Summit.” Chosen One: Wiz Khalifa Rising in the Ranks : When Wiz Khalifa talks gang affiliations, it’s not about red or blue. It’s the yellow and black: the colors of the Steelers, Pirates and Penguins of Pittsburgh. The past couple of years for Khalifa have brought constant elevation, not just with his daily fruits and vegetables (the green kind), but in the public’s awareness of him and his artistic acumen. Wiz spent 2007 and ’08 waiting to drop an album on Warner Bros. Records that never materialized. He kept his name in the streets and on the Internet by releasing a slew of mixtapes in the interim, developing a small cult following. Wiz’s fans were eventually dubbed the Taylor Gang , after a group of MCs he was down with in Pittsburgh. Last November, he put out an independent body of work called Deal or No Deal as a sort of declaration that he would make it in the game regardless of whether he had the backing of a major label. Deal spawned the popular “This Plane,” which has been soaring in the past few weeks with a video on MTV Jams and, of course, online. The blogs and Twitter is where Wiz has thrived unlike any MC in his peer group. The Taylors have been very active with their rabid love for Khalifa. His Kush & OJ mixtape was so heavily downloaded and talked about when it came out in April (just in time for 4/20) that it became a trending topic on Twitter and Google. Wiz’s musical appeal lies with his melodies and his lovable stoner mentality. Early Insight : “There’s certain cities where you have that hometown pride. Pittsburgh is just one of those cities where you go hard for anything that’s Pittsburgh,” Wiz explained. “Knowing that everybody’s got my back and knowing that I keep it real with everyone back home, ’cause I still live in Pittsburgh, so people still see me every day. People see me at the gas station, eating wherever everybody’s eating. I sign autographs and take pictures, but I’m still a regular person. I never thought I was going to be that dude — you know, to really put Pittsburgh on the map — but it’s cool.” Blistering Ballistics : “I live life sucka free/ That’s why them n—as you be wit talk down like they don’t f— wit me/ I get money realistically/ And the homies show me love/ Groupies wanna leave the club wit me/ Ain’t nothin’ to a G/ Let your hair blow in the breeze/ Roll some bomb-ass weed.” — from Khalifa’s “The Kid Frankie” Forecast : The tide has definitely turned in Wiz’s favor. His Internet presence is steel-cage solid, and his fanbase has been steadily growing. Now his big-homie peers, such as Rick Ross , have taken notice and are calling him for features. The biggest thing Wiz has on his side right now is freedom. He’s a free agent, making his next album at his leisure and with his own creative vision. Kush & OJ is being heralded as his best project to date, so his follow-up is pivotal. Besides the aforementioned album, Wiz has also been crafting his mixtape Cabin Fever (think more private jets than out in the woods), so the sky can literally be the limit. MTV News will be rolling out the top-five candidates for “Hottest Breakthrough MCs of 2010” all week — with the winner being revealed on MTV2’s “Sucker Free Summit” on Sunday at noon!

Lindsay Lohan To Report To Jail Today

Actress is expected to serve at least 23 days of her 90-day sentence. By Gil Kaufman Lindsay Lohan Photo: David McNew/ Getty Images Lindsay Lohan has been here before. The troubled actress knows what it’s like to spend time behind bars in Los Angeles, but unlike her quick, 84-minute trip to the all-female Century Regional Detention Facility in Lynwood, California, in 2007, beginning Tuesday (July 20), the “Mean Girls” star is expected to do at least 23 days of a 90-day sentence on probation-violation charges . And because she will be in protective custody in the special-needs unit to prevent any harm to her from other inmates, Lohan, 24, is likely to spend up to 23 hours a day alone in her 12-by-8-foot cell. Despite tabloid reports to the contrary about other inmates eagerly anticipating her special arrival, a number of lawyers told MTV News that jailers will likely go out of their way to make sure no harm comes to Lohan in order to avoid any potential litigation.
