Lindsay Lohan Partying It Up Again?

Starlet apparently out of control at the Chateau Marmont

Well, well, well: It seems everyone's favorite train wreck has derailed once again. I'm talking about Lindsay Lohan. LiLo apparently got her party on in a major way over the weekend in Hollywood -- and given everything she's been through in recent years, is anyone surprised?

Oh Lindsay. Things were looking so much better for you. Why why WHY did you have to go and mess up again?!

Kim Kardashian Raises Funds for The Trevor Project

Starlet donates 50k to queer support organization

Is it mean-spirited to call an act of charity from Kim Kardashian out of character? I don't know much about who she is in real life, but from the celebrity shell she's constructed, I've gathered that she's more the type to spend money on herself than on others. Nevertheless, the reality TV starlet recently donated a nice 50k to LGTBQ organization The Trevor Project.

Pat Sajak Hosted 'Wheel of Fortune' Drunk?

Admits he partied it up with Vanna before tapings

In what has got to be one of the strangest tabloid stories in recent memory, longtime Wheel of Fortune game show host Pat Sajak has admitted that he's hosted the show drunk. More than once, though not recently.

Told ya. Bizarre, right? I mean I'd expect this sort of hosting-while-trashed stuff from almost anyone else...but not Pat Sajak. Looking back, though, maybe it makes sense.

Is Zac Efron Dating Taylor Swift?

Swifty and Zac Would Make a Great Couple

Okay, we all know how this goes: adorable A-list celebrities have a nice, quiet dinner together (just one) and suddenly they are dating (at least in the media). Sometimes the stories turn out to be true, and sometimes they don't. That's exactly what's happening with Zac Efron and country songbird Taylor Swift.

Zac and Taylor were recently spotted sharing a nice dinner together at a swanky Los Angeles, California, restaurant a couple of weeks ago. Now, reports say the dinner was a "date" and hints that they might be a new dynamic duo. Is it true? Or is this another instance where one dinner is suddenly "we're in love"?

Utah School Board: The Word "Cougar" is Offensive to Middle-Aged Women

Could the people in Utah be any more uptight?

Utah cougars are apparently more easily offended than the cougars in Washington state; the students at Corner Canyon High School chose to adopt the cougar as their mascot. But the School Board decided that the cougar mascot might offend older women in the Salt Lake City region because of the negative association with the term cougar and forced the high school students to choose a different mascot.  

The Latest Horrible Rumor: Khloe Kardashian, Not a Kardashian?

Khloe's stepmothers claim she's illegitimate

This might just be the single worst, most hurtful rumor EVER spread about any Kardashian, ever. Two of Khloe Kardashian's stepmothers claim that she's not the biological daughter of Robert Kardashian. Welcome to Scandals and Nasty Rumors 2012, people.

The only reason I'm writing about this now is to express my fury - not to perpetuate the Hollywood rumor mill. Khloe is actually the only Kardashian I genuinely like. She seems more genuine than her famous sisters, Kim and Kourtney K. So when I read the stories today, in which Robert Kardashian's ex-wives claim Khloe is illegitimate, I got really, really angry. And so did Khloe.

Leonardo DiCaprio and Erin Heatherton Dating: Are They Getting Serious?

Leo took Erin to meet his mother

Leonardo DiCaprio and Erin Heatherton have only been dating for a short time, but already things between the sexy actor and his new Victoria's Secret model girlfriend are getting pretty serious. He's taken her to meet his mother, even!


It's worth a mention that Erin is one of several stunningly beautiful models and/or actresses seen on Leo's arm in recent months (think Blake Lively, Karlie Kloss and of course, ex-girlfriend Bar Refaeli. No doubt Bar knows Leonardo's mom, but did he take Blake home too?


And now, the burning question: Could Erin Heatherton finally be the woman Leo settles down with? Is this merely a passing fling, like so many other Leo conquests, or is this the real deal?
