In a new interview, 19-year-old aspiring model Ali Lohan (short for Aliana) speaks out about her own career prospects, and also her maligned older sibling. The younger Lohan, who recently signed on with Wilhelmina Models and posed for Elle Korea, says “I would like to be known as my own person.” “I don’t need to ride on any coattails. I just want to make my mark myself.” The coattails of Lindsay Lohan are definitely not worth riding on these days, but regardless, she adds, “I definitely have to prove myself in my career.” Ali Lohan only had glowing words to say about her family, calling big sis LiLo, 26, a “good roommate,” and her mother, Dina Lohan “the best mom ever.” Clearly she has a lot to learn, but she’s only 19. Other excerpts from her WWD interview … On Lindsay’s advice: “She’s awesome. She just says the main thing is to do your best and to do what you love. We’re very close and speak very often.” On learning from Lindsay’s fame: “I just want to make the most out of the word ‘fame.’ I want to do good things with my fame, or whatever it is.” “I want to do charity work. There’s something going on in Chile right now with the water, so I think I’m going to down there in a month to help out.” “My grandfather worked with charities his whole entire life, and we grew up living with him. He always told me about the world and everything that’s going on.” On the ups and downs being a Lohan: “We’re just like any other family. We’re close, we love each other and we have arguments like any other family.” “At the end of the day, I only trust my family. I feel that so many things have happened, but at the end of the day, they’re always going to be there for you.
It sounds like Justin Bieber isn’t any better of a driver overseas than he is on American soil. The superstar reportedly triggered a number of cameras while performing in Dubai over the weekend, as his white Lamborghini was eventually pulled over due to what sources say were a “number” of violations. An official in Dubai simply confirmed that Bieber was fined for his actions and few other details are available at this time. Bieber, of course, is a notoriously dangerous driver . He was also in actual danger himself on stage Saturday when a concert goer attacked Bieber on stage . Fortunately, security jumped the moron and Justin remained safe. But that may not remain the case if he continues to drive in such reckless fashion. Slow down, man. Take in the beautiful sights.
Rob Portman has stopped the presses once again. About two months after announcing that he has switched his views on gay marriage , the Ohio Senator has made headlines for admitting the unthinkable in an interview Monday night: He’s smoked marijuana! Rob Portman Admits to Marijuana Use Portman admitted to making like Justin Bieber during a BuzzFeed Brews Q&A this week when he was asked by John Stanton if he’s ever smoked weed. “This is all off the record,” Portman joked before answering with a simple “yes.” The 57-year old Republican didn’t include any further details, but said that he’s been closely involved with drug-prevention measures and programs since his first year in Congress in 1993. He has concerns about substance abuse overall in Ohio, most notably when it comes to heroin. “It can devastate your life and it has for many people,” Portman said. The Senator concluded that he’s been honest with his kids about his past, opening up to them them about how he did “experiment” when he was young, but experience has taught him better and he hopes they do not follow suit. “I tell them [that] having spent a lot of time now in this field,” he said.

The identities of the three men taken into custody for abducting Amanda Berry and two other women more than a decade ago have been revealed. Authorities arrested Ariel Castro, 52, and his brothers, Pedro Castro, 54, and Onil Castro, 50, who officials believe assisted their brother. Amanda Berry, 27, Georgina “Gina” DeJesus, 23, and Michele Knight, 32, all vanished in separate incidents near their Cleveland homes from 2002-2004. Incredibly, the three missing women were found alive last night. Berry escaped from Ariel Castro’s home about 6 p.m. with the help of neighbor Charles Ramsey. She called police, who rescued DeJesus and Knight. Castro was an unassuming man, a former school bus driver who liked playing with children, and loved music and his bass guitar, according to friends. He was also skilled at keeping a dark side hidden, said his uncle, who lived down the block from his home where three missing women bolted to freedom. “Nobody in the neighborhood or in the family could imagine that something like this would happen,” Julio Castro told ABC News following the arrest. Juan Alicea, a relative of Castro, said the suspect was intensely private and kept his social life outside of his home – clearly for this exact reason. “He’d never have anyone come over,” Alicea said. “He’d never had [a] social life unless they were outside on the porch or something, as far as I know.” Cleveland Deputy Police Chief Ed Tomba said at a news conference today charges would be filed within 36 hours of the three suspects’ arrests. It was not immediately known what charges the men could face or what roles the brothers allegedly played in the crimes against the three captives. To say the least, the community is stunned. In a good way, that the girls (now young women) are alive and in relatively good health, and in a bad way, that this awfulness all went down close by. Charles Ramsey, the neighbor who helped Berry break free when he heard her cries for help, said he’d barbecued with Castro and never suspected anything. “He just comes out to his backyard, plays with the dogs, tinkering with his cars and motorcycles and goes back in the house,” Ramsey said Monday. “Sometimes you look and then you look away because he’s not doing nothing but average stuff. Ain’t nothing unusual about him. Well, until today.”
Wade Robson is accusing Michael Jackson of sexual abuse, 20 years after it allegedly occurred and eight years after swearing it did not occur in court. The choreographer, now 30, filed legal documents asking for money from the Michael Jackson Estate, on grounds of childhood sexual abuse. He met Michael when he was 5. They became close. By the time he was 7, he had sleepovers at Neverland and MJ’s homes in L.A. and Las Vegas. The sleepovers continued until Wade Robson was 14. In Jackson’s 2005 molestation trial, MJ’s former housekeeper, Blanca Francia, testified she witnessed him in the shower with Wade, who was 8 or 9. Robson, however, testified in the child molestation case personally and denied that the King of Pop engaged in any kind of inappropriate conduct. Now he’s telling a dramatically different story. Wade’s lawyer filed documents May 1 asking the judge in the Michael Jackson Estate case to allow him to file a late creditor’s claim against the Estate. The claim stems from alleged “childhood sexual abuse” and the complaint specifically outlines the alleged abuse at the hands of Michael Jackson. Robson’s attorney also mentions a psychiatrist who treated Wade after the alleged abuse, likely to bolster the argument that he deserves compensation. Robson has worked with top names in music including Britney Spears , *NSYNC, Usher and P!nk; he’s also worked on So You Think You Can Dance . He is believed to be the “other man” who Britney cheated on Justin Timberlake with way back in the day, inspiring JT’s 2002 hit song “Cry Me a River.”
They feuded over the Farrah Abraham video and how the Teen Mom star planned to leak it, but James Deen has nothing but good things to say now. In fact, Deen’s upset about the backlash against the Backdoor Teen Mom since the story of how she planned the Farrah Abraham sex tape broke. “I think she did an amazing job,” he said of his co-star, adding: “I get kind of bummed about society and the fact that just because a chick decides she wants to do a porno, that she needs to be called mean names and stuff.” “I kind of feel like people should be nicer to her.” “If she wants to express her sexuality , whatever her motivations for making the adult film may be, I kind of feel like she shouldn’t be ostracized for such decisions.” Express it she did, and 2 million people viewed her romp with Deen in the first 12 hours after it was released by Vivid, who paid nearly $1 million for the rights. While her story about making the tape for personal use is highly questionable, James says you can’t blame her for making it to provide for her daughter. Nor can you criticize her for starring in porn just because she’s a mom. And he maintains again that Sophia, 3, was nowhere near the set of the film. “The child was not on set. Her kid was not involved in making any of the adult material,” he said. “I would happily testify that her daughter was not involved.” In the weeks since they filmed the porno, Farrah has slammed James, calling him a “prop in the background,” and slamming him for being “unprofessional.” She even claimed James Deen has a small package. But through it all, he says he has no hard feelings and wishes her all the best going forward. “I think just because you have a healthy sexual appetite doesn’t necessarily make you a bad parent in any way, shape or form,” he said of Farrah. Seems like a standup guy, no?

Three young women who went missing separately about a decade ago were found alive Monday in the same home just south of downtown Cleveland. They had likely been tied up during years of captivity, said police, who arrested three men – all brothers – for the abductions that took place from 2002-2004. One of the women who had been missing for the better part of a decade said she had been abducted and told a 911 dispatcher in a frantic call, “I’m free now.” Crowds gathered on the street near the home where the city’s police chief said he thought Amanda Berry, Gina DeJesus and Michelle Knight had been held. They were in their teens or early 20s when they vanished. The women all miraculously appeared to be in relatively good health and were taken to a hospital to be evaluated and to reunite with long lost relatives. Police said a 6-year-old also was found in the home, but the child’s identity or relationship to anyone in the home wasn’t revealed as of this report. The discovery came after neighbors said they heard someone kicking at a door, yelling for help and trying desperately to get outside the house. A neighbor, Charles Ramsey, told WEWS-TV he saw Berry, whom he didn’t recognize, at a door that would open only enough to fit a hand through. “I heard screaming,” he told the Cleveland station. “I’m eating my McDonald’s. I come outside. I see this girl going nuts trying to get out of a house.” Anna Tejeda, who lives across the street, said Berry was nervous and crying, wearing pajamas and old sandals after she kicked out the screen in a door to escape. On a recorded 911 call Monday, Berry declared frantically to the dispatcher, “I’m Amanda Berry. I’ve been on the news for the last 10 years.” She said she had been taken by someone and begged for police officers to arrive at the residence on Cleveland’s west side before he returned. “I’ve been kidnapped, and I’ve been missing for 10 years,” she said. “And I’m here. I’m free now.” Berry disappeared at age 16 back on April 21, 2003, when she called her sister to say she was getting a ride home from her job at a Burger King. DeJesus went missing at age 14 on her way home from school about a year later. They were found just a few miles from where they had gone missing. Police said Knight went missing in 2002 and is 32 now. Officials said one of the brothers busted after the shocking discovery, a 52-year-old, lived at the home, and the others, ages 50 and 54, lived elsewhere. Authorities released no names of the arrested threesome or indication of what criminal charges they might face, but the investigation is just underway.
