Lindsay Lohan Back From India, Doing Good Deeds

After myriad tales of Lindsay Lohan being a train wreck, Lindsay Lohan's career going down in flames, Lindsay Lohan's father being insane, and every guy/girl in L.A. seeing Lindsay Lohan nude, we're happy to report a positive story about her!

Lohan returned to the U.S. from India Saturday. There, she visited the country's most impoverished areas to film a documentary about human trafficking.

"Lindsay is home from India now. I am so proud of her for going," Dina Lohan said Sunday of her eldest daughter, who arrived at LAX Airport Saturday.

The 23-year-old visited the Sanlaap women's and children's shelter outside Calcutta, which houses female victims of trafficking and other forms of exploitation.

The troubled star and desperate muse spent about hours with residents and watched performances by children, donning traditional Indian clothing.

Lindsay Lohan also visited hospitals to give gifts to sick children.

The actress traveled around India with a camera crew from the BBC and her friend, stylist Patrick Aufdenkamp, who Tweeted, "Can't wait for everyone to see the documentary of [Lindsay] with the incredibly brave children we met."

Lohan herself took to Twitter to say that visiting India was "the most amazing time of my life," she wrote. "Focusing on celebrities and lies is so disconcerting, when we can change the world one child at a time.... hope everyone can see that."

We can't believe we're saying it, but good job Lindsay!

Chris Brown Says Stores

Chris Brown, in the midst of a major comeback effort after spending most of 2009 dealing with the fallout from his assault on Rihanna, just released Graffiti.

You'd think this (and his 20/20 interview) would be the first major step toward closing the book on the grisly incident, but Brown says it's still haunting him.

He isn't happy with the distribution of his new album, and threw a temper tantrum on Twitter over the weekend regarding retailers refusing to carry the CD.

"Major stores blackballing my CD. Not stockin the shelves, lying to customers. What the f%*k do i gotta do," the singer said. "The industry can kiss my a$$."

Okay then.

Chris Brown Live in Concert

Chris Brown is telling us how he really feels.

Lest we believe he was kidding or just caught up in the moment: "WTF... yeah i said it and i aint retracting sh!t and im not biting my tongue about sh!t else."

And finally, this message to the haters in the Twitterverse: "for those people who r constantly tweeting me wit bullsh!t.. hop off my ****.. ur life is pointless.

Despite his complaints, Brown's album was expected to sell about 100,000 copies by the time this week's Billboard chart is published, trailing only the second Glee music soundtrack and British sensation Susan Boyle's I Dreamed a Dream.

Perhaps he should go back to anger management counseling.

Heidi Montag Pens Love Poem to Spencer Pratt

A woman of zero many talents, Heidi Montag now fashions herself a writer.

The Hills star recently penned a poem for her husband, Spencer Pratt, and - surprise, surprise! - she wants the whole world to read her expression of love.

"Here is a poem I wrote for my hubby Spencer [Pratt]," she Twittered.

In the untitled prose, Heidi writes about their "flawless lives" and how she has "no more anxiety or stress" because "all that matters" in this world is him.

Speidi Kiss

Spencer and Heidi: the embodiment of true love.

You may vomit on cue. But if it's this or her giving interviews about him making her orgasm all day long ... maybe we can stomach the poem a little better.

Follow the jump to read the unintentionally hilarious prose from reality star, author, model, aspiring signer, full-time celebrity and now poet, Heidi Montag:

Spencer my love my heart my King
You are my world and my everything
I love you more than I could ever express
Especially when I have been such a mess
Every moment with you is beyond a blessing
2010 no more anxiety or stressing
All that matters in this universe is you
God has made us soul mates pure and true
Thank you for every detail you have done for me
You always go above and beyond and its always love I see
The moment I met you changed my world
Some would say it's been quite the swirl
I love every second of our lives together
With each other we cant get through any weather
I thank God for the miracle of you every day
I could never live life without you and I pray
That it's only going to get better all the time
All that matters in life is that you are mine
Thank you for loving and marrying me
I know it has a lot to do with the higher powers to be
Know that I love you with everything I have
With you by my side it out weighs all the bad
Sorry for ever not being the best wife
I am going to make it up to you my whole life
You are the most amazing, unique, special person to ever live
I thank Jesus that I was the one chosen for you to give
You positive love and light to me
Without you I would be so lost with no glee
Thank you for always taking such amazing care of me
You are the most selfless, loving, perfect, caring, miraculous soul to be
Every day I am in aw of you
All of you passions motives are always so pure and true
I feel bad for all the women in the world who don't have you
But sorry ladies there is one and I don't share
Iron and iron we are quite the pair
I will work on pull my strength and weight
Your so strong and incredible, there is no weakness in your traits
I'll love you for all eternity
Working everyday diligently
On making you happy and loving every second of our flawless lives
Life is so precious and the most is the honor of being you wife
It doesn't matter where we go or what we do
All I want in life is to be with you
Whatever our blessed features hold
In it together we will laugh, love, and one day grow old
Thank you thank you for always loving me
Sometimes I know it's not that easy
But 2010 is the start of a new life
Like I said there will be no strife
All that matters is the time we get to spend
That's all that matters when it comes to the end
Mrs. Pratt is coming out to stay
Never will I go back to my old other ways
It's a new beginning and era of love
We will be flying so high like the doves
I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU
You and God are the only things true
Love for eternity is what is to come though

Happy 21st Birthday, Vanessa Hudgens!

For her 21st birthday, Vanessa Hudgens will not be receiving a digital camera from me:P

However, our staff has chipped in and purchased many layers of clothing for the young star. After all, we wanna see her succeed on the big screen... just not as an adult film actress!

The rising star celebrates a milestone today, finally turning the legal drinking age. We'd imagine she raises a flute of champagne or two with dreamy boyfriend Zac Efron.

What do you get a young woman that has a successful career and a hunk on her arm? Aside from advice to never pose naked again, we can only come up with birthday wishes from an adoring public. Send them in today!

In honor of Hudgie Bear, we also present the following photo tribute. Click on each pic for a larger image...

Orlando Bloom & Miranda Kerr: Supposedly Engaged!

According to reports, Pirates of the Caribbean star Orlando Bloom is engaged to his model girlfriend Miranda Kerr. No, for real, this time he supposedly is.

Reports say he popped the question while on vacation in Morocco. They reportedly got engaged in May, too, but that was bogus. Is this time the real deal?

He and the Victoria's Secret model have been dating for nearly three years. According to OK!, the brother of Miranda Kerr confirmed the news, saying:

"He's finally done it. Orlando proposed. They're getting married.”

Well, that's good enough for us! The pair, who've been denying rumors of wedding bells for months, are reportedly planning to tie the knot next summer.

Congratulations if it's true! And we totally hope it is!

KerrBloom

KERRBLOOM! Hopefully, this time the rumors are true.

Happy Birthday, Taylor Swift!

For her 20th birthday, we were gonna get Taylor Swift a quartet of Country Music Awards. But she already has those.

Then, we were gonna ensure her nomination for a slew of Grammys. But, nope, the singer has snagged those, too.

A fake ID, so she doesn't have to wait a year to drink legally? Nah. This isn't Miley Cyrus.

Might we honor the beauty with a spot on our Celebrity of the Year countdown? You'll find out soon!

For now, we're simply gonna offer Taylor gifts that money can't buy: our deepest appreciation of her talent, our gratitude for her normalcy, a request to readers to send in your birthday wishes to the superstar, and the photo montage below...

Report: Elin Woods to Divorce Tiger After Holidays

Elin Nordegren Woods, the scorned wife of disgraced golfer Tiger Woods, has decided to leave him after Christmas and is talking with a divorce lawyer.

That's according to largely un-sourced tabloid reports coming out of the UK, and has not been confirmed by either Woods. But would you blame her?

Sources say Elin wants the holiday season to appear normal for the couple's two children, Sam and Charlie, but will separate from Tiger shortly after.

Despite reports that Elin Woods moved out and is already back in her native Sweden, she remains in Central Florida with the two kids as of this posting.

Elin is said not to be in a huge rush to file divorce papers and that money is not a prime concern. Nor should it be, she'll be getting plenty regardless.

Elin Woods and Tiger

"I'll be taking the kids and a few hundred million, thanks."

The revelation of Tiger Woods' long list of mistresses caught her completely off guard and it’s a "raw" situation, according to friends of Elin Nordegren.

Amazing as it seems, Elin supposedly had no idea Tiger was cheating and the stress of the situation has caused her emotional and physical stress.

Unconfirmed rumors are also circulating that Tiger is still in touch with mistress Rachel Uchitel, the first of Tiger's many affairs to be publicly identified.

It also appears that Tiger, who just announced an indefinite break from golf, is in some type of counseling after Elin angrily insisted he see a therapist.

Will she stay with him? Should she stay with him? No matter how lucrative he makes the prenup, it's hard to imagine her giving him a second chance.

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar Welcome Baby #19!

Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar of TLC's now-inaccurately-named 18 Kids and Counting, gave birth to baby #19 last night after being rushed to the emergency room.

A rep from TLC confirmed today that "Michelle Duggar, who has been in the hospital recovering from a gallstone, was taken to the OR for an emergency c-section."

No. 19 wasn't due until Spring, but at 6:27 p.m. yesterday, Michelle and Jim Bob welcomed new daughter Josie Brooklyn ... who weighed in at just 1 lb., 6 oz.

Not only is Josie the youngest of the Arkansas family's children, but she's officially younger than her own niece, Mackynzie, the first Grandduggar born in October!

The Duggars

MAKE THAT 19: The Duggar family just got bigger!

Sources say Michelle is resting comfortably and that the baby is "stable" in the neonatal intensive care unit at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences.

"The most important thing is for Mom and baby Josie to rest," TLC's rep said. "The family is grateful for all the prayers and well wishes during their recovery."

Congratulations to the new parents and Josie's 18 siblings! Here's wishing Michelle and Josie a full, speedy recovery after a joyous but traumatic experience.

Popping Off: Miley Cyrus Aims for New Sound

First, she bashed the heck out of the Twilight Saga.

Then, she got denied from a 21-and-over club.

In both recent instances, the gist was the same: Miley Cyrus doesn't see herself as a typical 17-year old. She wants to be older, more mature, edgier.

London Concert Pic

Along those lines, Cyrus told British TV show GMTV this week that she wants to leave the pop music world behind.

"I want to do my last pop record, I'm working on a record right now. I kinda want... something edgier and not have to worry about people saying, 'Oh, this isn't what her fans want to listen to.' Because in a few years, as I grow up, so will my fans and I won't have to focus on that as much and I'll be able to have more of the sound of music that I'm into."

Last month, Miley admitted she had never heard a Jay Z song. So it makes sense she'd wanna branch out and give the world of country or adult contemporary a shot. But will her fans follow her there?

Only time, and album sales, will tell.

Celebrity of the Year Finalist #8: Carrie Prejean!

As 2009 draws to a close, The Hollywood Gossip staff is proud and excited to present 10 finalists for its prestigious, Third Annual Celebrity of the Year award.

These stars have given us their best, their worst, their naked photos (sometimes) and their hilarious, ridiculous scandals (often). It's time for THG to pay tribute to their greatness.

Earlier this week, we continued the '09 countdown with Molly Malaney and Melissa Rycroft in the #9 spot.

Today: Celebrity of the Year finalist #8 … Carrie Prejean!

The Gay Marriage Question

When Barack Obama took office in January, who would have guessed that a blonde beauty queen would create more diversion between Republicans and Democrats than the nation's first African-American President?

But after Prejean took her stance on "opposite marriage" on April 19, all heck broke loose. Perez Hilton called her a "bitch," Carrie claimed she lost the Miss USA title due to her opinion, and every conservative alive chose this woman as their cause's role model.

She was discriminated due to her beliefs, they cried! She's a poor, defenseless, targeted Christian, they insisted!

After all, God was testing Prejean and while she passed, the rest of society failed. So said Carrie's supporters.

They stuck by her through rumors of a boob job; through blatant lies over topless photos; and through the eventual loss of her Miss California crown after Donald Trump grew sick of Carrie's act.

But Prejean continued to play the role of victim, even though her religion is the most popular in the country and even though her stance on gay marriage is agreed upon by a majority of voters. That wasn't enough. She was wronged dammit!

And you know who will pay for those wrongs, don't you? The consumers that actually bought Prejean's memoir, which recounted her harrowing story in detail. It's a nightmare many of us still can't awake from.

Celebrity Hair Affair: Britney Spears


Frankly, we've always liked the more down-home, dressed-down side of our girl ...

the Circus costumes are cool and all, but that's not real life.

This here is how a normal America's sweetheart would dress!

Britney Spears was spotted with a new hairstyle this week. But is it boring, or do you like to see the mother-of-two embracing her casual side?

Take a look at these Britney Spears pictures

Miley Cyrus to Queen Elizabeth II: Look at My Boobs!

We know the singer believes she's celebrity royalty, but was no one around this week to inform the self-obsessed star that there are proper - and improper, as Miley proved - ways to dress in front of actual royalty?

Cyrus and Lady Gaga were two of the American singers chosen to meet the Queen of England at yesterday's Royal Variety Awards in London. While the latter celeb actually donned appropriate attire for the occasion, Miley treated the honor like a night of club-hopping.

As you take a look at the outfits Cyrus wore to greet Queen Elizabeth II at the event and to perform in front of her, try not to injure your jaw when it drops to the ground...

Miley and the QueenJust Wrong

London's Daily Mail referred to Miley's leather hotpants and crop top as the "daring outfit of the night."

Jason and Melai’s love story officially begins :: Pinoy Big Brother Double Up




Last Saturday night, Jason’s first ever date with Melai finally pushed through. Fortunately, Big Brother provided another chance for Jason to spend quality time with the young lady he adores. Together with 3 other male housemates, Jason jumped over the wall to get in House B and purposely abduct Melai for a rather astonishing surprise.

At first, Melai was completely terrified with the intruders’ presence, but upon realizing that Jason and a fancy picnic were waiting for her at the garden, she somehow grew light-hearted. And just as expected, the reunion triggered once again the nonchalant performance of the two’s marital antic.
While munching over their prepared snack, Jason and Melai finally started catching up; and in an instant, their comical get-together finally evolved into a serious heart-to-heart confrontation. Since he was fully aware that their date was in fact time-bound, Jason decided to cut the chase short and go about his true purpose for the said visit. Insistently, he fished for Melai’s true feelings towards him; and upon getting the answer—which was a big “yes, I like you”—Jason finally took courage on admitting his true emotions as well.
It was in fact a fruitful night for the love birds; and to make it more special, the two decided to end their date with a romantic kiss. At first, Jason had planned to do it Spiderman-style as he dangle at the rope he would use for his grand exit; but upon realizing how hard it was, he just got contented with a simple peck on Melai’s cheek before dragging himself up the rope and into the other side of the wall.
Now that the two concerned housemates are finally aware of their feelings for each other, what is up next given Big Brother’s house merge?
