Lepaparazzi News Update:



Lindsay Lohan's mother has fired back at tycoon Donald Trump after he advised the actress to "get a new set of parents" as part of her ongoing recovery. Dina Lohan admits she was upset by the glib comments Trump made to the New York Post the day after her daughter was arrested for drunk-driving and cocaine possession.

She has responded by releasing a statement explaining she was "disappointed" by Trump's words.

Dina writes, "I've always had a great admiration for your business sense and I've read all your books and learned from them. Your own brother died of alcoholism and you own Trump Vodka? You say Lindsay needs new parents? Such a rash statement without backing it with fact? I am a single mother of four children doing what I can during this difficult time! Do a background check of both parents and you will find the truth! Shame on you... so many families suffer from this, yours included. We need solutions not opinions!"

Spice Girls' Versace Comeback Tour Wardrobe

The Spice Girls have asked Donatella Versace to design their outfits for their comeback tour.

The Italian designer has already started working on her exclusive creations for the band - Victoria Beckham, Mel B, Emma Bunton, Mel C and Geri Halliwell - who kick off their world tour in December.

A source told Britain's Daily Mirror: "Donatella was a big fan of the girls back in the day and as soon as she heard that a reunion was on the cards she submitted her ideas. There will be several different looks for each of them and the clothes will be worth over £200,000."

Donatella - the sister of the late fashion guru Gianni Versace who was murdered in 1997 - is determined that each singer will have an individual look, but won't be rigorously sticking to their previous personas, Sporty (Mel C), Baby (Emma), Ginger (Geri), Scary (Mel B) and Posh (Victoria).

The source added: "She wants the girls to retain their band personas but in a much less obvious way than before. Mel C won't be wearing ill-fitting sportswear instead she'll have a really sexy wardrobe. Emma will wear stunning, elegant dresses with a playful touch.

"Donatella thinks they look better than many bands half their age and should show that off."

The band recently announced extras dates for their world tour, after 3 million people registered for tickets on the girls' official website.

Britney Spears' New Music Video Breakdown

Shooting on Britney Spears' new music video was stopped after the singer reportedly "sobbed hysterically" during a pole dance routine.

The troubled star, who was filming the promo for new single 'Give Me More', apparently looked "dead-eyed" and "disorientated" and became paranoid during her raunchy pole dance last Wednesday (25.07.07).

A source said: "Britney was rude, and she chain-smoked and drank an enormous amount of Red Bull throughout the shoot.

"She had a problem with the extras watching her pole dance, suddenly she was in floods of tears. It was sad to witness."

At one point, Britney - who was wearing a black leather waistcoat, a pair of black hot pants and ripped fishnet tights - squatted on the floor and hugged her Yorkshire Terrier puppy London as she vacantly stared into space.

Around 100 frustrated crewmembers were sent home after 18 hours on the Los Angeles shoot, which had been paid for by Britney.

Nicole Richie Does August 2007 Nylon Magazine


Nicole Richie is the August 2007 cover girl for Nylon Magazine! The 25-year-old Simple Life star dishes on being a celebrity and a role model as well as fer run-in with the law.

On her omnipresence created by the media: “I don’t have a clue why I’m famous. I didn’t make myself famous… You’re doing it. I think people just want to say, ‘Oh, she doesn’t have a job she doesn’t do anything.’ They get off on that. But I do have a job, like everyone else.”

On her 2003 stint in rehab following a heroin-possession arrest: “When I pictured heroin, I pictured some crazy crackhead with no shoes under a bridge. You never think that is going to be you. And it never was me. I was never under a bridge, and I always had shoes.”

On setting an example for her fans: “I don’t walk around pretending that I’m perfect, so I don’t think anyone should hold me to that. The dangerous thing is that there are 16 -, 17 -, 18 –year-olds that people consider to be role models. I’m so happy I wasn’t famous back then… You’d think I was the f****** devil.”

Nicole Richie has been sentenced to four days in jail after pleading guilty to DUI (driving under the influence) on Friday (27.07.07).

'The Simple Life' star - who is believed to be four months pregnant with her first child - entered the plea at California's Glendale courthouse.

Nicole also agreed to serve a three-year probation term, enroll in an alcohol education program and pay a $2,048 fine.

Los Angeles County Commissioner Steven Lubell told the troubled 25-year-old: "Someone could've gotten killed. You need to understand that driving under the influence is extremely dangerous."

Nicole was given the option of serving her time in a paid city jail - which is seen as a more comfortable option than a county jail.

She wasn't given a surrender date, but must complete her sentence before September 28.

Pussycat Dolls Lounge Inside PURE Nightclub


The former model and her DJ boyfriend Eric Calvo welcomed their first child into the world two months ago and she is delighted not to be pregnant anymore because it "sucked".

Jaime, 29, said: Pregnancy was the biggest killer for me. I hated it - I hated being fat.

"As a new mom I'm supposed to go on about how wonderful it was to be pregnant.

"Well, I don't buy into that. The truth is that I love my baby to bits, but the rest of it sucked.

"My hormones were all over the place and I acted like some lunatic, picking fights with my boyfriend over how he made my coffee.

"On top of that I had this hideous 'pregnancy mask' skin discolouration which completely covered my face.

"You can normally use creams to disguise it, but not when you're pregnant, so I had to walk around looking like I was horribly disfigured.

"This may sound arrogant, but I'm used to looking hot - I just wanted to cry all the time."

The star is now enjoying being a mother to son Dezi but she is no hurry to get pregnant again.

She said: "Nobody tells you this stuff when you talk about having a baby - it's all kept as one big secret. The only amazing thing is when your baby pops out and you have this little thing that is going to be part of your life forever."

Summer 2008 Launch Party

The 'Factory Girl' star shot to fame when she began dating the handsome actor in 2004 and insists the press attention got out of control.

Sienna told Britain's OK! magazine: "I was well known before I'd had a film released. And I was part of a soap opera that people felt very involved in, and then certain dramas happened, so my life became a sitcom."

Sienna - who split from Jude after he had an affair with his children's nanny - insists her life is a lot more settled now, despite her photo regularly appearing in the newspapers.

The 25-year-old former model said: "My life is actually relatively uneventful! It's just that if I go out one night a month, which is all it might be, it'll be made into such a drama - or they'll get you half-blinking and say you're drunk.

"It's very hard to control, because ultimately scandals sell their papers.

"Actually I just sit at home and cook and walk my dogs. I'm very different to the way I'm perceived."

Fergie Never Loses Her Temper Thanks To Therapy

Fergie Live From the Pearl at the Palms Casino Resort

Fergie claims she never loses her temper because she has learned to control it in therapy.

The 'My Humps' singer, who is a former drug addict, is now so at peace that she hasn't had an argument for years.

Fergie, 32, said: "I've been in therapy for a few years so I don't really lose my temper.

"It sounds kind of corny but I like to discuss rather than yell.

"The last time was probably years ago in my early twenties when my ex-boyfriend threw all my clothes off the balcony. We didn't break-up, though. It was a very 'exciting' relationship. Fiery!"

Despite her calm outlook, the Black Eyed Peas singer believes misery is a better emotion for making music.

She said: "Tragedy is more interesting."

Fergie is now dating 'Transformers' actor Josh Duhamel. The couple live together in Los Angeles and Josh has installed a stripper pole in their home for Fergie to entertain him with erotic dances.

Lepaparazzi News Update: Jessica Alba's Relationship with Cash Warren



Jessica Alba split with Cash Warren because he was terrified of commitment, according to the pair's pals. The actress reportedly ended her two-year relationship with the production assistant last week, after months denying the romance was on the rocks.

Now friends reveal the break-up was relatively amicable, but prompted by differences in the couple's long-term aspirations.

One tells the New York Daily News, "He (Cash) wasn't ready for marriage, and Jessica is. It's simple as that. It's kind of cold that the press is saying she was just finished with him, because it isn't like that."

And pals cite close friend Eva Longoria's recent French nuptials as the event that finally pushed her: "Seeing Eva get married made Jessica wistful. That was the reason Jessica seemed to be in a terrible mood in Paris."

Lepaparazzi News Update: Arizona Man Arrested In Alleged Shakedown Plot Against Tom Cruise



LOS ANGELES (AP) - An Arizona man who allegedly demanded more than $1 million not to publish Tom Cruise's stolen wedding photographs has been arrested, the actor's lawyer said Thursday.

David Hans Schmidt, known for brokering deals involving compromising celebrity photos and videos, approached Cruise's representatives about six weeks ago with photos from the actor's Italian wedding last year to Katie Holmes, attorney Bertram Fields said. The FBI was contacted.

''He was looking for money, lots of money,'' Fields said.

Schmidt, 47, was arrested by federal agents Tuesday, said FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller, but she said the criminal complaint charging him was under seal in federal court and she refused to comment.

Thom Mrozek, a spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles, said a judge set bond at $100,000. Schmidt was being held Thursday at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Los Angeles, according to jail records.

It was not immediately clear if Schmidt had a lawyer or how he obtained the photos.

Schmidt has also been trying to auction off Paris Hilton's diaries, along with photos of her in various stages of undress and other personal items that had been locked away in a Los Angeles-area storage locker until a few months ago.

Hilton's publicist, Elliot Mintz, has said the belongings were ''illegally seized'' from the storage facility.

Kelly Rowland Used To Wish She Was Light Skinned


The former Destiny's Child singer was convinced she would be more successful if her brown skin was fairer.

Kelly told website Essence.com: "It's said that brown skinned girls don't sell magazines and that's so sad.

"I remember wishing I was more fair skinned, but Tina Knowles, Beyoncé's mom, would say, 'Don't you know how beautiful you are?' She made me come into my brown beauty. I didn't get it, but now I do."

Thanks to Tina's advice, Kelly insists she was able to accept herself for who she really is and be proud of her heritage.

Courteney Cox Is Obsessed With Work

Courteney Cox, who worked with her actor husband David Arquette on US TV series 'Dirt', struggles to leave work behind when she gets home.

Courteney said: "Yes, I do bring things home. It's time to catch up, because when you have been working together, you don't really have time to talk about what happened.

"At dinner, there is a lot of catching up to do, even though we have seen each other most of the day. It's weird."

While the 43-year-old admits she is very different to David, Courteney insists their contrasting personalities make the show more interesting.

She explained: "David and I are very different, and have different creative choices and different creative views.

"He is really left of centre - it's amazing what he comes up with. I'm good with emotions and psychology of people. He is good with other creative aspects - like thinking up Don's hallucinations. Don is a paparazzo who is schizophrenic."

The hollywood "It girl" described how she knew she was addicted from the first time she tried the drug.

In an interview with Marie Claire she said: "I can remember the first time I tried it as a teenager-there was a lot of vomiting. But your body becomes physically dependent on it right away."

After discovering the extent of the problem she was admitted into a rehab designed especially for teenagers.

"They didn't want me to quit cold turkey becuase I could have had a seizure so they gave me medication to come off it," she says looking back.

"Anyone who goes to rehab will say that they don't remember their first week or two becuase your body just goes through the shock of coming off whatever you were on." However this was nothing out of the ordinary for Hollywood and Nicole describes how there are even different types of rehab to chose from.

"There are prison ones and hotel ones, I was in under 18 rehab," she says.
