Lindsay Lohan Says She’s Designing Her Own Island, Appears to Be Serious

Lindsay Lohan may not have a successful movie career at the moment. Or television career. Or singing career. Or modeling career. Heck, you may not have even seen the words “Lindsay Lohan” and “career” or “success” in the same sentence since approximately 2009. But the former actress and constant lightening rod for trouble sat down with Wendy Williams on Friday and said she’s actually very busy. With what , you may be wondering? Well…. “I’m discussing designing my own island in Dubai at the World Islands,” Lohan said with a straight face, adding that it will be called “Lohan Island” and then joking: “I’m out Trump-ing Trump with the name Lohan.” Oh, God. Is Lindsay Lohan going to run for President in 2020? She is, isn’t she? And she’s going to win, isn’t she? Elsewhere in interview, the woman who thinks we’re too mean to Donald Trum p opened up about her family, her relationship status and her life in Dubai. Oh, and about that Mean Girls sequel chatter? Here’s a rundown of other topics the island architect touched on with Williams: Why did she get into so much trouble back in the day? I think everybody has their own path in life. We all go through ups and downs in life. Being in public, a lot of pressure was on a lot. I didn’t know how to have a private life because I was too young, running around too much and surrounding myself with people I probably shouldn’t have been around, there for the lifestyle. I wouldn’t blame anyone for anything in my life. Does she blame her parents for any of her issues? In life, parents have their things together and sometimes the children are immersed in it and you really have to step back and let your parents do what they do and figure everything out for themselves. We all have a great relationship now, so it’s nice,” she added, “it’s much simpler that way. Is she a lesbian? No, I like men. Is she dating right now? I don’t have a man. I don’t want to date anyone right now. I’m in work mode, I like it. I have great girlfriends, people around me, my family. Relationships, I’ve had enough of them. I don’t think, especially in LA you’re always around other actors, and I like being OK with me. When it happens, it’ll happen. Aside from being “stalker-ish” when it comes to making a new Mean Girls, what else is she doing? I really threw myself into working with a lot of children and refugees overseas. I’m going back to Turkey to see them soon. I feel like there’s a lot of love I have to give to children that don’t have anyone and that have lost their parents and don’t have a lot of love and hope in their life. What’s the biggest misconception about her? It is frustrating to me when people always say those partying days and stuff. I was never really a partier. Just because I was seen out at clubs, made some mistakes, they didn’t take the best shots of me. I don’t like to bring up and rehash the past. How does she feel about the future? Whenever people bring up past things I experiences and gone through, like jail, working at the morgue, which is actually really traumatizing stuff. But then it distracts from actually, maybe meeting with people to do Batgirl, doing a Mean Girls 2,’it really distracts people and they only think about the negative. It sounds like Lohan has a solid head on her shoulders these days. That may very well change by the time you read this. But we really do wish the best to Lohan. She’s been through enough. We’re sick of writing about her troubles and we hope they’re behind her. We’d also totally vacation on Lohan Island, wouldn’t you?

Jana Duggar Courtship Rumors: The Complete Hot List!

Today marks the 28th birthday of twins Jana and John David Duggar. Of course, in a rare reversal for the family, it's the male who's being pushed to the margins, and the female who's getting all the attention. But don't worry, the reasons for that are completely sexist, in keeping with the Duggars' reputation. You see, Jana is still single . This is almost unheard of for a family in which girls are taught from a young age that procreation is their sole reason for being. So with every birthday, the moaning and hand-wringing from the Duggar faithful becomes more intense, as does the need to believe that Jana is in a secret courtship that will soon bear fruit … and by “fruit,” of course, we mean children. Here's a complete list of all the men Jana has been erroneously linked to over the years. 1. Single Cinderella Dubbed the “Cinderella Duggar” due to the number of household chores she performs, Jana stayed at home to help care for her siblings as her brothers and sisters flew the coop to start families of their own. 2. Pushed Out of the Nest? Sources close to the family say that from the time she was of child-bearing age, Jana’s family has been attempting to marry her off to any available man who crosses her path. So we guess this marks her tenth anniversary of being creepily objectified by her own parents! 3. Or Shackled to the Compound? Of course, there are those who claim the opposite–that Jana has been forced to remain at home to help care for her siblings. Frankly, we’d believe either terrible rumor! 4. Either Way… …the rumors keep flying, and they probably won’t let up until Jana either gets married or releases a statement proclaiming that she plans to remain single for the rest of her life. 5. The Pressure Increases The public pressure on Jana to hurry up and start breeding has only gotten more intense as her sisters have married and started families of their own. At this point, five of Jana’s younger siblings have married and have either had children or are currently expecting. 6. Who Are the Suitors? The list of Jana’s potential suitors runs the gamut from longtime family friends to famously pious NFL stars. And curiously, she’s mostly kept mum about the rumors… View Slideshow

June Shannon to Daughters: This is My Boyfriend!

The disturbing rumors were turned into a frightening reality on the season 2 premiere of From Not to Hot: June Shannon has a boyfriend. As previously confirmed, his name is Geno Doak … he’s 42 years old… and he has unusual taste in women. The television world was introduced to June’s lover on Friday night when she and her kids returned for the second go-around of their surprisingly popular series. After growing suspicious of their mother and suspecting that her extreme weight loss had caused some dude to fall for her, children Lauren and Alana followed her to bingo one evening. What they witnessed there was then burned into their eye sockets forever. And ours as well. “She’s kissing him!” Honey Boo Boo said as the couple exited a building and shared a smooch an hour after they had walked in. “What kind of guy takes mama on a date to bingo?” When June arrived home after her night out, she faced an interrogation session from her two daughters. “Yes, I have found love y’all. I have a great wonderful guy, Geno, and I feel like a kid again,” explained Mama June, who dropped an incredible 300 pounds over the last year or so. She is now a Size 4, which is a sentence we never thought we’d write. “Geno knew me when I was heavy and I really think he’s here for the right reasons,” she continued, speaking to the camera and adding: “I think he likes me for me, not for [fame] or me being skinny.” That’s wonderful. We’re not here to judge (too much) or anything. It really is amazing how many pounds Shannon has shed . Yes, she did it through a controversial medical procedure, but one must also diet and exercise properly to keep this weight off. At one point on the premiere, June said sneaking around with Geno was “hot… like foreplay,” yet she also said her main goal wasn’t to be all secretive. She’d prefer to be open with her kids. “Geno’s the first guy that I’ve dated really serious since I’ve lost the weight, and I’m trying to keep this one to myself to see how it’s going to work out,” she said. “I hope this one works out, but honestly, I’ve had some terrible luck with guys and I’ve got really burnt. So, it’s really hard for me to fully trust him right now.” That’s an understatement. Ex-husband Matt “Sugar Bear” Thompson has been accused of assaulting Shannon, while an ex-boyfriend was actually convicted of molesting her oldest daughter. YIKES, right? Following a pottery class they took together, Geno and June agreed that it was time for the former to actually meet Shannon’s family. “This is Geno, we’ve been dating for a couple months,” Mama June said, as Alana shook his hand and asked: “What’s your intentions with my mama?” Later on, Alana admitted to her mother that she feared the new romance would mean far less time spent together for mother and child. “I mean, he’s a cool guy or whatever,” she said, before turning to her mom and inquiring: Does that mean me and you ain’t going to hang out no more ’cause you have a boyfriend? You haven’t been around a lot.” Replied Shannon: “I mean, now that y’all are getting older, it’s time for me to find somebody that I can be happy with. I’ve been single for so long and been devoted to y’all.” We’ll see if this relationship lasts, however. The season 2 finale may need a cliffhanger. Will it be a break-up or a proposal?

Jesus Take The Wheel: Depressed Surgeon Kills Five And Nine Year Old Kids In Murder-Suicide

Getty Image Texas Surgeon Kills Himself And Two Children This is so sad. A Texas area surgeon, Dr. Christopher Dawson turned a gun on himself early Saturday morning after killing his daughter Aubrey, five, and son Luke, nine, at their home in North Richland Hills, a suburb of Dallas, Texas. The medical professional was said to have been suffering from depression and decided to “protect” his children from their fate when he decided to kill them. The Daily Mail is reporting that their mother, Rachel Dawson, was unharmed in the shooting and found their dead bodies around 6.30am and immediately called the police. All three are being memorialized today; the children had a joint service at 10am and the husband’s at 2pm. reportedly, Dawson’s obituary says that the 36-year-old was suffering from depression and addiction when he decided to take his life. An old neighbor of the couple, from when the family lived in Phoenix, said there were ‘warning signs’ and claimed the father was abusive. ‘He was very, very controlling of Rachel to the extent that after a certain point he no longer allowed her to be friends with us,’ Arial Borg told 12News. SMH, sad that the mother also had to lose her children during the holiday time. May the rest in peace.

Keaton Jones/Mother Address Video Backlash, Cries of Racism

On Tuesday morning, Tennessee middle school student Keaton Jones became an Internet hero after he explained, tearfully, on camera that he's been the victim of horrible bullying for several weeks now. Just a few hours later, the mother of Keaton Jones became an Internet villain. In an odd story that sort of sums up the craziness of 2017, Jones sobbed into his mother's phone that he was afraid to go to lunch due to the way he was treated by fellow students. He then tried to be strong and tried to send a positive message of hope to other victims of bullying. You can watch the video here: It quickly went viral, with celebrities from all industries sending Keaton positive thoughts and inviting him to special events such as UFC pay-per-views and big-time movie premieres. It appeared to be a sad story, but also an uplifting one with a happy ending. However, later on Tuesday, Internet sleuths delved into the social media history of Keaton's mother, Kimberly, and discovered a few controversial posts. There was a Facebook photo, for instance, of the family posing with Confederate flags. As a result, GoFundMe placed a campaign on pause that had raised $57,000 for Keaton and his loved ones. There are now questions over whether the entire video was set up by Kimberly just to make her family lots of money. In response to this scandal, both Keaton and his mom sat down for a pair of interviews this week. “The only two photos – the only two photos on my entire planet that I am anywhere near a Confederate flag. It was ironic,” Kimberly told CBS News this morning, adding that there was no racist intent behind the images. “I’ve said I spent most of my life being bullied and judged because I wasn’t racist… “It was meant to be ironic and funny … I am genuinely truly sorry. If I could take it back, I would.” Keaton says in the original video that bullies “make fun of my nose. They call me ugly. They say I have no friends.” And the 11-year old reiterated those claims to CBS, basically saying the video was his idea: “I had enough of it. They had said that someone was going to beat me up in lunch so I texted my mom and I said, ‘What do I do here?’” This is one of the controversial photos in question, shared by Kimberly earlier this year: Talking to The Today Show, she said: “Yesterday [Keaton] was a hero. You know, the world loved us. Today, the world hates us… “I'm trying really hard to think that I was trying not to get caught up in the positives. So, we're not going to get caught up in the negatives.”  It's unclear at the moment what will happen to the money earmarked for the Jones's on GoFundMe. But Kimberly’s daughter, Lakyn, defended her mother in a now-deleted Twitter post, writing: “To those who think my mother is a racist, she is not. She is a southern woman who loves where she’s from. She believes in equality and doesn’t want any harm done to ANYONE. “This is about bullying and my brother. Not her. Please leave it alone.” Watch excerpts from the Today interview with mother and son below:
