Denise Richards to Charlie Sheen: Let Me Help!

Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen have had plenty of differences, but compared to the drama between Sheen and Brooke Mueller, the two are downright cozy.

That's why, in the wake of Brooke spiraling so out of control, Denise reached out to Charlie and offered to take informal custody of his twins, Bob and Max.

Denise called Charlie right after the shocking story broke late last week that a likely strung out Brooke hit a pawn shop to hawk a watch and a stereo.

Sheen's previous ex-wife wants to help if she can.

Denise told Charlie it was apparent Brooke (now back in rehab) is off the rails and with Charlie on tour, she offered to take the kids until things stabilized.

Charlie and Denise also have two young daughters, Sam and Lola.

As for Charlie's reaction? He's had issues with Denise, like we said, but he didn't shut her down. He thanked her and told her, "I'll keep you posted."

Charlie's lawyer is going to court in an attempt to gain full custody from Brooke, whose mother has also offered to take the kids. Stay tuned ...

Demi Lovato: Cutting Herself Since Age 11!

We've known Demi Lovato is a "cutter," but the recent revelation that she began to slit her wrists and mutilate herself at age 11 is startling.

Now 18, Demi opened up to 20/20 about her recent stint in a treatment center, where she was treated for cutting, bulimia and emotional issues.

Cutting is "a way of expressing my own shame, of myself, on my own body," according to Demi, who adds she's been overeating since age eight.

Demi Lovato has also experienced - and been shaped by - bullying.

"I've spoken openly about being bullied throughout the past few years," she says.

"But one thing that I've never been able to feel comfortable talking about was the effects that it had on my life, afterward. I didn't know why they were being so mean to me. And when I would ask them why, they would just say, 'Well, you're fat."

Her torment turned into a lifelong disease, and one dangerous habit after another.

Hunger Games Casting Rumor: Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket?

Elizabeth Banks has been rumored for the part of Effie Trinket in the upcoming film adaptation of The Hunger Games, according to new reports.

A buzzed-about cast already features Jennifer Lawrence as lead character Katniss Everdeen, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta and Liam Hemsworth as Gale.

The rumor of Banks as Effie, a flaky bureaucrat who escorts her district's young death-match contestants to their fate, was first reported by Variety.

Lionsgate would not confirm whether Banks will be joining the film, based on the bestselling young-adult novel (the first in a hit trilogy) by Suzanne Collins.

The Hunger Games takes place in a post-apocalyptic world, one boy and one girl from each district are chosen to fight to the death in a televised event.

Banks has already taken on one huge new role this year: Mom. She and hubby Max Handelman welcomed a son, Felix, by gestational carrier in March.

Vanessa Hudgens Pics: Doing Drugs at Coachella?

Vanessa Hudgens at the center of another photo scandal? Incredible!

The actress ditched her usual squeaky clean image in favor of hippie chic on the first day of the Coachella Festival, but it's not her fashion that has people talking.

The young star was spotted enjoying some food, then was seen sampling a strange white substance from a pouch. Check out the Vanessa Hudgens pictures here:

The photos shown above definitely her, and definitely show Vanessa Hudgens licking a white substance off her finger at Coachella in Indio, Calif.

We know what it looks like ... but she says it's not what it looks like.

A rep for the Sucker Punch starlet told E! News that the stuff was actually melted white chocolate. Right. Because everybody samples that out of a bag.

Eh, we'll give her the benefit of the doubt here. After having nude pics leaked about 12 times in the past few years, she could use it, don't you think?

On a side note, she was there with rumored BF Josh Hutcherson!

Jessica Simpson Sets Up Prenup, "Bonus Plan" For Eric Johnson Before Wedding

It's good to be Mr. Jessica Simpson, but not THAT good.

Don't get us wrong. Eric Johnson, who will wed the singer/designer this year, worked out a prenup that guarantees him some cash, and he gets to put it to Jessica Simpson in the meantime, so he's living well. Just not THAT well.

According to sources, Jessica's billion dollar brand is being closely guarded, and Eric's compensation if they ever split up will work out as such:

BIG WINNER: Eric has some serious assets now. Look at those.

"Eric is on what you might call a vesting plan," said an insider.

"He'll get $500,000 as a wedding present. Then, each anniversary, he'll get another $200,000. If he and Jessica make it to five years, he'll get an additional incentive $500,000 bonus - and a $1 million bonus if they make it to 10 years."

On second thought, he's doing DAMN well. Of course, if he's gonna be married to her 10 years, he'll probably stay married to her, so it's moot.

You have to wonder, though, what Jessica is really protecting here. Is she guarding her own fortune, or essentially paying him to stay married?

Sophie Cranston: Kate Middleton Wedding Dress Designer?

One of many burning Royal Wedding questions ever since Kate Middleton and Prince William got engaged has been who will design the bride's dress.

Alexander McQueen and Vivienne Westwood have been rumored, but their modern aesthetics may not be appropriate for the regal, April 29 affair.

Now, several news outlets are reporting that Kate Middleton has settled upon Sophie Cranston, a 34-year-old who previously worked for McQueen.

Sophie worked with the late fashion icon before branching out with her own Libélula studio. You can see some of Cranston's wedding dress designs here.

Interest in her work has been so great in the 24 hours since this rumor surfaced that the Libélula website crashed, according to the label's press contact.

Visitors are now greeted with a message that reads: Due to our recent press coverage the site has received overwhelming traffic, causing technical issues.

True or not, the bride should look stunning 10 days from now. Whether or not she and Wills enter with this Royal Wedding Dance, however, is uncertain.

Jennifer Lawrence Pictures From GQ: Wow!

Make no mistake: Oscar nominee Jennifer Lawrence is not just a pretty face.

But also make no mistake: She has a very pretty face, among other attributes.

Wearing a sexy Chloe two-piece and D&G sandals, the 20-year-old actress shows off her enviable bikini body in GQ's May issue. Take a look:

"There are a lot of young American actors now who haven't got technique," Matthew Vaughn, who directed her in this summer's X-Men: First Class, tells GQ.

"And to be blunt, a lot of these kids assume that just by having a good set of teeth and tits, smiling for the camera's enough. I need someone who can act."

He got that and then some in Lawrence.

The Oscar nominee for Winter's Bone will also appear in Jodie Foster's Mel Gibson vehicle The Beaver and play the lead of Katniss in The Hunger Games trilogy.

"She's got a set of balls on her," Vaughn says. Figuratively. Check out these Jennifer Lawrence pictures for a closer look at some of her more literal assets:

Lindsay Lohan: Robbery Perpetrator ... or VICTIM?

Lindsay Lohan will soon be tried for grand theft. But you know who SHOULD be? Kamofle & Co. They marked that necklace up 300 percent! Highway robbery!

The necklace piece Linds is accused of bogarting from Kamofie & Co. has been appraised at $850. Legally, this could actually be a significant sum.

That price tag does not qualify for felony grand theft, which requires a value of $950 or more. Kamofie was trying to sell the necklace to Lindsay for $2,500.

Lindsay's lawyer, Shawn Holley, will argue the D.A. should only be allowed to charge her client with a misdemeanor, based on the true value of the necklace.

But even if Holley loses that argument, Kamofie's owner already lost.

After all, everyone knows jewelers mark stuff up, but 300 percent? That's going to be a PR problem. Not to mention her selling the surveillance video.

It's hard to make an ungrateful and unprofessional brat like LiLo look like a victim or a sympathetic figure, but they have. Well, almost.

Taylor Swift Hooks 'Rents Up With New Digs

Taylor Swift is a great performer. She's also a great daughter.

A source close to the singer announces that she just purchased a home in Nashville - for her parents! The crib's price tag? A tidy $1.4 million.

"It's an incredible house. Taylor's been visiting her parents there and she's so excited for them," says a source, who adds that Swift visited recently.

Taylor Swift: What a sweetheart!

Meanwhile, across the U.S., "Taylor just bought a beautiful home for herself in L.A. She's in L.A. so much - and she was paying a fortune in hotel charges!"

Good for her. She certainly deserves it with all the success she's had, and isn't it nice to hear about a celebrity doing something so nice for their parents?

Hope Dworaczyk Labels NeNe Leakes "Unstable"

Add another name to the list of folks who have a problem with NeNe Leakes.

Kim Zolciak has been feuding with this reality star for years, Star Jones jumped in during her run on Celebrity Apprentice, and now Hope Dworaczyk has sounded off with her take on the Real Housewife of Atlanta.

"I liked Nene a lot until I had to be her boss," the Playmate told E! News, previewing an episode that airs tonight. "One minute she was crying and opening up about herself and sharing something about the past that's very very personal, and the next minute, she's yelling. I think you can call it unstable."

Does Dworaczyk therefore understand why Star Jones wanted a bodyguard to protect her from Leakes? Yes.

"It was out of control," she said. "I think if I had been yelled at and attacked the way Nene gets in Star's face, I would have wanted a bodyguard, too."

Nic Cage: Argumentative, WASTED at Tattoo Parlor Prior to Arrest

Surveillance video taken inside a tattoo shop just before Nicolas Cage was arrested this weekend shows the actor drinking and arguing with his wife and others.

Cage is clearly shown carrying some sort of drink as he stumbles around, fretting to employees about not recalling where he lived and getting testy with wife Alice.

Nic began throwing his clothes around, demanding to get inked up. Intoxicated, he then asked employees to call the cops ... 'cause he didn't know where he lived.

Police report that this was the topic he and Alice were arguing over - the address where they're living while he films Medallion - when he allegedly grabbed her.

In the surveillance tape, Cage, holding a clear plastic cup, can be seen with his arms around two friends as he enters. Nic walked out and back in and out again.

At that point, he can be seen arguing with his wife and friends. His wife can be seen motioning to herself throughout, as if to say, "Listen to me" or "Come with me."

Eventually, Nic acquiesced and left the shop ... only to later be arrested on charges of domestic violence and disturbing the peace, having taunted police to bust him.

He was released on $11,000 bail after Duane "Dog" Chapman posted bond for him, which is easily the most random and hilarious part of an already classic story.

Royal Wedding Countdown: First Rehearsal Takes Place; Official Schedule Released!

Set to marry Prince William in front of pretty much the whole world on April 29, Kate Middleton took part in her first rehearsal at London's Westminster Abbey.

A Clarence House spokesman confirms that a royal wedding rehearsal took place at the famed cathedral on Friday, with the lovely bride-to-be on hand.

Prince Harry, Kate's sister (and maid of honor) Pippa Middleton and her bridesmaids were there. William was tending to his Royal Air Force duties.

"We can confirm that Catherine Middleton and Prince Harry took part in a rehearsal at Westminster Abbey this morning," the rep confirmed Friday.

Exciting stuff. Meanwhile, a schedule of events for the big day was released:

Hugh Hefner-Crystal Harris Wedding: Uncoventional!

Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris are not exactly your typical couple.

Their June wedding will reflect their unorthodox nature accordingly.

"The dress is not going to be white," Harris says. "I love pink! So, the dress will be pink and Hef and I want the wedding to be a lot of different colors."

At least they're on the same page, too. Plans are going smoothly!

"It's pretty great that we haven't argued about anything yet," the 24-year-old says. "Things that I feel strongly about, he's okay with, and things that he feels strongly about, I'm okay with doing things his way, so it works out."

The Playboy founder, 84, is in charge of the cake (strawberry) and music.

"Hef's friend Ray Anthony, he has a band," Harris says, "so we're going to have a big band and then we're going to have a deejay at the end of the evening."

Hefner's brother Keith, 82, will serve as his best man, with Hefner's two youngest sons, twins Marston and Cooper, 20, serving as groomsmen. Pretty cool.

What won't be involved? A prenup. Or Jordan McGraw, we're guessing.

Reese Witherspoon on Robert Pattinson Sex Scene: EWWWW!

Reese Witherspoon finds Robert Pattinson "amazing and wonderful." Then why was the actress disgusted by a sex scene between the pair while shooting Water for Elephants?

We'll let her explain...

"Rob possibly had the most hideous horrible cold of any co-star I’ve ever had to do a love scene with ever in my entire life,” Witherspoon told In Touch Weekly. “He was literally snorting and snotting through every second of it... I’m talking green, infectious, disgusting. I’m not kidding!”

Oh well. At least we know the sex scene between Pattinson and Kristen Stewart in Breaking Dawn is nothing but H-A-W-T.

Nicolas Cage Arrested For Abusing Wife, Taunts Cops, Sprung By Dog the Bounty Hunter

Nicolas Cage was arrested early this morning in New Orleans for domestic abuse against his wife, Alice, along with one count of disturbing the peace.

In town filming a movie called Medallion, Nic and Alice disagreed over the exact address of an apartment they were renting in the city, police report.

Standing in front of a property he believed they were renting, he grabbed her by the arm to pull her to what he believed was the correct address.

Police say there were no visible signs of injury on her arm, but just the same, he joined our celebrity mug shot gallery with this hilarious pic.

The NOPD went on to say Cage then began to hit parked cars and later attempted to get into a taxi. Cops say Cage eventually got into a cab.

A police officer ordered him out ... which "prompted Cage to start yelling" and basically daring cops to arrest him ... which always goes well.

It only got wilder from there.

Miley Cyrus on Family Life: All Good!

Before Miley Cyrus embarks on her Gypsy Heart Tour on April 27, she has a message for fans and followers: "My family is good."

The singer made this statement to The Associated Press, clearing up months of rumors and controversy, most of it centered on her parents' split, subsequent reconciliation and the scandalous comments her father made in between.

Heading to South America in a couple weeks, Cyrus said "you have to make sure everyone is happy before you start traveling."

And it sounds like they are. But is there a problem between Miley and her U.S. fans? Asked why she isn't playing any concerts in the States, the artist made an interesting comment:

"I just think right now America has gotten to a place where I don't know if they want me to tour or not. I just want to go to the places where I am getting the most love, and Australia and South America have done that for me."

Source: Robert Pattinson Gives Kristen Stewart a Promise Ring!

So much for Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart taking a break.

Their days on the set of Breaking Dawn may be coming to an end now that the film is nearing the end of production, but the two are closer than ever in real life.

Case in point? The “promise ring” Rob just offered his lady love!

“The ring is rose-cut diamonds set in rose gold,” says a friend of the rock, which reportedly set him back $17K. “It’s a very feminine piece of jewelry. Very old.”

BENDED KNEE: How long until Rob gets down on one for real?

The one thing we don't buy about this story? Kristen Stewart is kind of a tomboy. It's hard to imagine her wearing diamonds (even from Robert Pattinson).

Still, sources say he's ready, willing and able to take it to the next level!

“Rob is more mature than Kristen and and he’s ready to settle down,” says an insider. So is marriage next for one of Hollywood's hottest young couples?

We can only hope, THG readers. We can only hope.

Walking Dead Billboard Kills in UK

A billboard promoting AMC’s hit The Walking Dead has sparked a bit of controversy in the UK this week, but not because of the show's violent content.

The huge banner - brandishing the tagline “What makes us human?” - for the zombie drama isn't just visible, it's unavoidable for people walking by.

Which would probably be alright, except for what's inside the building:

Bad taste? Marketing genius? A hybrid of the two? Who knows!

“There must have been somewhere else they could placed it that would have shown a degree of insight and sensitivity,” said a peeved resident.

Advertiser Clear Channel reportedly issued this apology:

“Clear Channel apologises for any offense caused by the unfortunate juxtaposition of this advertisement, which was certainly not intended."

"We arranged to have it removed right away."

One Life to Live and All My Children: Axed by ABC

The future of soap operas is officially bleaker than that of Lindsay Lohan's movie career, following the decision by ABC yesterday to cancel One Life to Live and All My Children.

The daytime dramas were on the air for 43 years and 40 years, respectively, and will be replaced by a pair of horrifically-named talk shows: The Chew, featuring Mario Batali; and The Revolution, starring Tim Gunn.

ABC's Daytime President, Brian Frons, justified the move by saying "we are taking this bold step to expand our business because viewers are looking for different types of programming these days."

The most famous star on either show, Susan Lucci, responded to the news thusly: "It's been a fantastic journey. I loved playing Erica Kane and working with [show creator] Agnes Nixon and all the incredible people involved with All My Children. I'm looking forward to all kinds of new and exciting opportunities."

One Life to Live will go off the air in January, three months after All My Children's final episode in September.

Jenelle Evans Pleads Guilty to Drug Charge

Jenelle Evans pleaded guilty to possession of drug paraphernalia today.

Two other charges - marijuana possession and breaking and entering, stemming from an incident last year - were dismissed after her guilty plea.

Prosecutors are giving her a chance to clear her record by performing 24 hours of community service, at which point the charge will be dropped.

Jenelle, who got popped busting into an abandoned house to smoke pot, was also recently arrested for doling out that savage ass-whomping.

This is one of the few Jenelle Evans images we have that you won't also find in our celebrity mug shots gallery. She actually looks somewhat normal here!

Justin Bieber: Super Frustrated, Needing to Chill

Justin Bieber says he needs to take some time to chill following a heated incident with members of the paparazzi in Israel earlier this week.

Sadly for Bieliebers, that means no (or less) Tweeting.

"I'm just excited at this point to get on stage and perform," Justin wrote. "Gonna take a little break from Twitter and enjoy time with my family until then."

"[I've] been super frustrated and just need some time to vent and chill."

Back away from the Bieb!

Bieber's comments came after paparazzi caused him to retreat to his hotel rather than visit Israeli monuments. He lamented their lack of respect in the Holy Land.

One can understand where he's coming from. Kid never gets a break.

But, shortly after saying goodbye to the microblogging site, Bieber retweeted fans' tweets and then seemingly signaled a return to Twitter: "Patience is a virtue."

Lady Gaga Likens Hollywood to "Kegel-Exercise Vaginal Reaction"

Lady Gaga does not mince words.

In the May issue of Harper's Bazaar, the provocative singer dishes about her failures in adapting to Hollywood. Despite being a self-proclaimed student of the art of fame, fitting in out in la-la land just wasn't in the cards, she says:

"I had all these number-one records. I had sold all these albums. It was sort of this turning point: Do I embrace Hollywood and assimilate to that culture?"

Not exactly.

GRAND, BABY: Lady Gaga heats up Harper's Bazaar.

"I put my toe in that water, and it was a Kegel-exercise vaginal reaction where I clenched and had to retract immediately," she says in a great metaphor.

What happened after that, you ask? "I ran furiously back to New York, to my old apartment, and I hung out with my friends, I went to the same bars."

And went back to the same bartender, Luc Carl!

American Idol Results: Who Was Voted Off?

After last week's shocking elimination of Pia Toscano on American Idol, we learned to be prepared for everything. No one is safe going into the results show.

Would someone we expected to stick around all season be ousted again tonight? Or would America cast its ballots more predictably this time? We had no clue.

We did accurately predict that three among these four - Jacob Lusk, Paul McDonald, Stefano Langone and Haley Reinhart - would comprise the final three.

Paul, Stefano and Haley earned the fewest votes after Wednesday night.

Dancing With the Stars Results: Elimination #3 is ...

Another week of drama on Dancing With the Stars came to an end last night.

From Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Kirstie Alley's latest snafu to a number of suspect performances, there were several couples sweating it out.

Did Kendra Wilkinson rally enough votes to sneak by after tanking so hard? Or would Sugar Ray Leonard pay the price and be sent home instead?

One of these three pairs is gone:

Justin Bieber to Paparazzi: Respect Jesus! Sheesh!

Following a shameful incident with a few photographers earlier this year, Justin Bieber kept his middle finger in check yesterday.

But the singer still took to Twitter to vent his extreme frustration over being trailed by paparazzi - in Israel, of all places. Forced to cancel a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and tours of the Dead Sea, Masada and Caesarea, Bieber Tweeted:

You would think paparazzi would have some respect in holy places. All I wanted was the chance to walk where jesus did here in isreal.

They should be ashamed of themselves. Take pictures of me eating but not in a place of prayer, ridiculous ... People wait their whole lives for opportunities like this, why would they want to take that experience away from someone ... Staying in the hotel for the rest of the week u happy?

Teyana Taylor Allegedly Beats Down Women for Dissing Chris Brown

Man, let's hope Teyana Taylor has never read what THG has written about Chris Brown...

This R&B singer allegedly instigated a violent brawl in a recording studio Saturday night, all because a woman made a disparaging remark about Brown. Authorities tell TMZ the incident took place in Burbank, as Taylor defended the honor of her pal by punching a female in the face and then kicking her repeatedly in the stomach.

Sounds like behavior that would make Brown proud, doesn't it?

When cops arrived on the scene, Taylor had already left the premises. No charges have been filed, but police are investigating the brawl and plan on speaking to the singer.

Demi Lovato: I Have a Life-Long Disease...

For the first time since she entered and exited rehab, Demi Lovato has opened up about one of the main reasons for ending up there: she has struggled for years with bulimia.

"I don't think there's going to be a day when I don't think about food or my body," the 18-year old says in the latest issue of Seventeen. "But I'm living with it, and I wish I could tell young girls to find their safe place and stay with it."

Lovato admits there's no easy way to move on from this disorder. She says: "There have been times when I definitely have been tempted to get rid of my dinner. I will deal with it for the rest of my life because it's a life-long disease."

Does she have any advice for other teens out there?

"If you are going through that dark period, go to your family and closest friends. Don’t put yourself in danger... don’t ever inflict harm on your own body because your body is so sacred. I wish I could tell every young girl with an eating disorder, or who has harmed herself in any way, that she’s worthy of life and that her life has meaning. You can overcome and get through anything."

Salient words from a brave young star.

Kate Middleton on Royal Wedding: Nervous!

Prince William has already copped to pre-wedding jitters. With an estimated two billion TV viewers watching your nuptials, we can see why.

Yesterday, during their final public appearance before the big day, Wills' bride-to-be Kate Middleton revealed that she, too, has the butterflies.

Asked by a woman in Blackburn, England, if she was nervous about walking into Westminster Abbey April 29, she said, "Yes, of course I am!"

ROYALLY CUTE: This isn't to say Kate's experiencing cold feet. Just that ... well, it's a Royal Wedding. Who wouldn't be a little overwhelmed at the thought?

They were wished luck at every turn. One couple, Margaret and Alwyn Davis, sent Kate "all the best." Her reply: "Yes, I can't believe it's coming so soon now."

The occasion also marked the first donation by the grant-giving charitable foundation established by Prince William and his brother Prince Harry.

William and Kate handed over a "six-figure sum" to the Queen Elizabeth II Fields Challenge, which aims to enhance and protect playing fields in Britain.

Prince William, Kate Middleton Make Final Public Appearance Before Royal Wedding

Earlier today, Prince William and Kate Middleton braved the rain in England to make their final public appearances as a couple before their wedding.

Greeted by well-wishers in the streets of Darwen in Lancashire, they were on hand to mark the opening of the Darwen Aldridge Community Academy.

William and his future wife smiled and waved to the crowd:

 

18 DAYS TO GO: William and Kate will wed April 29.

William is scheduled to officially open the school, where he will launch the SkillForce Prince's Award and address the students, parents, governors and staff.

Their next and last stop of the day will be at nearby Witton Country Park in Blackburn, where thousands of fans are already awaiting his and Kate's arrival.

While there, Kate Middleton and Prince William will observe a series of sporting events and meet with a group of athletes and coaches at the venue.

The Prince is patron of the Queen Elizabeth II Fields Challenge, an initiative which protects 2,012 outdoor recreational spaces across the U.K.

Jersey Shore Casts Gets HUGE Raise, Officially Signs on For Season 4!

All for one, and one for all. The Jersey Shore cast will officially be back, intact, for Season 4 of the hit show, having been granted the raise they sought.

The crew will reportedly receive at least $100,000 per episode per person for the upcoming season, expected to last about 13 episodes later this year.

Having delivered record ratings this winter, they wanted to get paid. They weren't exactly hurting, but wanted bank commensurate with their stardom.

WE'RE RICH, BEEYITCH: The Jersey-ites are runnin' it back!

Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Jenni "JWoww" Farley and Paul "Pauly D" Delvecchio delayed filming over it, but all is good now.

The scheduled Season 4 in Italy has run into various snags, but the cast holding out is no longer one of them. It's on to the old country before long.

While $100,000 per episode is certainly a ton (up from $10,000 per in Season 1), it's nothing compared to their endorsement and appearance dough.

The Situation banked $5 million last year. That's enough to make you slit your wrists or raise a glass of Ron-Ron Juice, depending on your outlook.

Lindsay Lohan Denies Hiding in the Closet From Deranged Dad

Lindsay Lohan is denying a slew of hilarious reports that she hid in her closet when her father, Michael Lohan, paid her a surprise visit yesterday afternoon.

The troubled star claims she wasn't even home in Venice, Calif., when MiLo came by, and was reported quite desperately trying to get her to open the door.

"I'm fine," she told E! "I wasn't even home so it's funny how I was in my closet."

Reports surfaced that Lindsay was hiding from Michael out of fear.

It was said that Michael was pounding on her front door trying to break in, then after getting no response, peered into windows as he tried to spot her.

That may well have happened, but Lindsay says she wasn't there. Though if she were there and hiding in the closet, no one would've seen her, so ...

You have to wonder. Girl does lie a lot. For what it's worth, MiLo, who was recently arrested for domestic violence, left before the police were called.

Just another chapter in Lindsay's crazy personal life, a saga that long ago eclipsed whatever career she had. Betty White would not approve.

 

Vanessa Hudgens on Nude Pic Leaks: Just Silly

Vanessa Hudgens is looking forward, not backward.

Despite the seemingly annual leak of nude photos of her that took place last month, the 22-year-old tells the L.A. Times she refuses to let it get her down.

"It's just silly because I'm a very present person, and that's so in the past," she said. "The fact that somebody keeps bringing up the past is just selfish."

Vanessa Hudgens: Scandal-prone, but serene.

"I mean, it sucks. I already released a statement the first time it happened. It's just unfortunate that it keeps reminding people about the past, not the present."

Hudgens credits The Four Agreements, a self-help book penned by a New Age spiritualist, for helping her overcome the latest racy photo scandal.

"It has honestly changed me, almost," Hudgens said. "You really have to stay strong, because times get tough. Especially in this business."

Holly Madison Won't Attend Hugh Hefner-Crystal Harris Wedding

The guest list at Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris' wedding is mostly set.

Holly Madison? Not on it.

"I think Holly [Madison] has expressed publicly that it would be a little strange if she was there and I respect that," the Playboy founder said Saturday.

Madison had hoped to marry Hefner but eventually moved on and relocated to Las Vegas. Hefner, 85, moved on and got engaged to Crystal Harris, 24.

The feud between Madison and Harris has been well documented.

The former Girls Next Door star and Hef's #1 girlfriend has slammed her replacement and even questioned Crystal's motives for marrying him.

We can't imagine what she has to say about the couple's reported lack of pre-nup. As for other gals who used to parade around Hef's place nude?

Despite Kendra Wilkinson's claims that she hasn't received a "Save The Date," Hef said. "She knows she's invited. The invitations haven't gone out."

"I never expected to get married again," he added. "But I can't see myself with anybody else, and I just want to give that kind of statement."

"I think Crystal deserves it. I love happy endings."

So does she. Happy endings with so many zeroes.

Tori Spelling: Pregnant With Baby #3!

Tori Spelling is pregnant again.

The former 90210 cast member and her hubby, Dean McDermott, are expecting their third child together this fall, Spelling confirmed on Twitter.

"I know there's been a lot of speculation, so I wanted everyone to hear from me ... It's official ... Dean & I are PREGNANT!!!!," she wrote.

Congratulations to the whole growing family!

The actress said earlier this year she was ready for another baby, then showed off a tiny baby bump at the GLAAD Awards on Sunday in L.A.

Tori and Dean are already parents to son Liam, 4, and daughter Stella, 2½. McDermott is also dad to son Jack, 12, from a previous marriage.

The couple are currently starring in Oxygen's Tori & Dean: sTORIbookWeddings. Seriously. They are Inn Love with Tori puns over at Oxygen.

Happy 21st Birthday, Kristen Stewart!

OMG. It's Kristen Stewart's birthday today - her 21st no less!

The Los Angeles native racked up an impressive number of film and TV credits before 2008, but it was then that Twilight launched her into mega-stardom.

She's come a long way since those early brooding, awkward days. Okay, those days are still here, but a little less prevalent for the burgeoning A-lister.

With Breaking Dawn set to end the saga, she has a long, bright future ahead of her ... hopefully with co-star Robert Pattinson by her side throughout.

Karina Smirnoff Playboy Pictorial "Unforgettable," Gushes Hef

Karina Smirnoff says her reason for posing in Playboy was to test her limits.

We're not too sure what that means, but Hugh Hefner's reason was simpler:

She's hot as hell and has a huge following on Dancing With the Stars.

              

Hugh's eighty freaking five and still a playa.

"I think it's obvious," Hef told People at his 85th birthday party Saturday. "She has a very good following from the show and the pictorial is unforgettable."

The Playboy founder, who still plans on marrying Crystal Harris this summer, wasn't at the shoot but has seen the spread, which incorporates Karina's dancing.

"It's a beautiful shoot and I'm very proud of it," said Hefner, who adds that Karina is perfect because "Sexy is the comfortable feeling of being who you are."

Britney Spears, Rihanna to Whip Up "S&M" Remix

Rihanna and Britney Spears are set to collaborate on a new song.

That song is believed to be a remix of the former's hit, "S&M".

Rihanna announced it first, writing this on Twitter: "I got a sexy collaboration coming your way super-dupa soon! By popular demand... it's Britney bitch!"

Spears' manager replied: "Rihanna you're such a tease! I like it, like it..."

This duet will be off the chain ... see what we did there!?

Rihanna tweeted last week asking fans whether they would like to see her rework the song with another pop star, and if so, who. Britney seems like a great fit.

They've got their work cut out to top the original video, though:

Pia Toscano and Mark Ballas: New Couple Alert!

In fun celebrity couple news bringing the worlds of American Idol and Dancing With the Stars together, Pia Toscano and Mark Ballas are dating.

Pia and Mark became acquainted while shooting their respective shows and went on their first date Friday. According to reports, it was a 10!

Maybe an awesome date isn't enough to soften the blow of her stunning elimination from American Idol this week, but it can't hurt, right?

Pia was the instigator of the romance with Mark Ballas, sources say, but there was a surprise matchmaker involved who played a role in setting them up:

WWE great and current DWTS contestant Chris Jericho!

Pia and Mark both shoot American Idol and Dancing With the Stars on the same CBS Television City lot in L.A., and it turns out Pia is pretty resourceful.

She has a friend who is friends with Jericho, so Pia gave her friend a piece of paper with her number on it, who then passed it to Chris to give to Mark.

Sounds so high school, but apparently it worked out. Peeps connected with both Mark Ballas and Pia Toscano say they really hit it off. Way to go guys!
