Rosie O'Donnell Stands by Lindsay Lohan Slam
Rosie O’Donnell was very surprised that her comments about Lindsay Lohan started a big scandal.
O’Donnell appeared on TODAY’s professionals panel Tuesday and shared her thoughts that Lohan should not have been cast to play Elizabeth Taylor in the Lifetime biopic, Liz Dick.

On Thursday, O’Donnell further explained her comments to TODAY, “I [was] watching Whitney Houston‘s funeral, and I remember thinking why didn’t more people say what they knew? We all knew, when she would not show up to do this show, not show up to do my show, we watched Being Bobby Brown and it was like watching Sid and Nancy, they were people who were in the throes of addiction. But all that anyone cared about was that the show was getting ratings, not that this woman, this talented individual, this human being, this mother, this daughter, was worth saving.”
“To look at Lindsay Lohan you can’t help but feel for her,” O’Donnell, 50 said of the 25-year-old actress. “I don’t think she’s untalented, I think she’s quite talented.”

Lohan was taken off probation from her 2007 Beverly Hills DUI case on March 29, but remains on probation for her necklace theft until May 24, 2014.
O’Donnell told TODAY Tuesday that she didn’t believe Lohan is ready to return to acting, explaining, “Because she’s had a lot of trouble doing every single movie, including SNL. She was out and not at rehearsal. I think she’s not in a place to work.” She added, “I don’t think she’s right for the role and I don’t think she’s capable at this point of doing what’s needed.”

Lohan responded to O’Donnell’s comments Wednesday to Access Hollywood. The actress said, “It’s funny that someone you don’t know at all can say something so intrusive and so knowing.”

Kim Zolciak Talks Sheree’s Firing And Calls Marlo “Disgusting!” Plus VIDEO Preview Of Don’t Be Tardy For The Wedding!
Kim Biermann née Zolciak‘s wigtastic spin-off Don’t Be Tardy For The Wedding premieres tonight and the sideboob queen has been busting out all over New York doing the interview rounds to promote her new gig.
Of course, since Kim’s primary occupation is abusing autotune starring in Real Housewives of Atlanta – which just ended its fourth season – she has much to say about her castmates and that extremely vitriolic reunion!
First up, Kim tackles She by SheBroke‘s alleged firing. Her former co-tart will be making an appearance as a bridesmaid TFTW! “I think Sheree is just possibly in a different place,” Kim shares with The Hollywood Reporter. “I don’t know what happened — if it was completely her decision or Bravo’s, or a combination, I don’t know that. What I do know is that she does have a lot going on and I’m going to miss her.”
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON TO READ THE REST!
“If they are casting another housewife, then I look forward to that,” she adds. “I look forward to meeting somebody new and kind of going through that, but Sheree definitely will be missed.”
One person Kim won’t miss and certainly hopes she’ll never have to share an intro with is Marlo Hampton, whom Kim dismisses as trashy and gross. Despite the fact that she also engaged in “hole wars“! “She’s just trying to create drama so she can hold a peach, which will never happen,” Kim snaps. “Marlo better never hold a peach.”
“I mean she’s been arrested seven times, clearly that shows somebody’s character.” Wait – hasn’t Kim’s bestie She by SheLegallyChallenged also been arrested?
“Her language and her demeanor are just disgusting. Her energy to me is just disgusting, using the ‘F’ word, and the gay swear is disgusting to me. That really showed me her character, and after I saw that and heard that she had said that, I just had no interest in ever getting to know her.” So, I take it Kim doesn’t like Marlo?
Furthermore, Kim is highly incensed about Marlo’s comments concerning her family! “Just appalling to insult my family and it really ticked me off,” Kim continues. “But I kept saying to myself, ‘I’m pregnant, calm down, don’t get aggravated, she doesn’t know me, doesn’t know anything about me.’ It seemed very rehearsed to me.” If that was Kim in a calmed down state – then yikes! Well, that settles it: Kim is not a fan of Marlo. And this absolutely has nothing to do with Marlo’s friendship with Kim’s former BFF NeNe Leakes!
Moving on, tonight is the premiere of Don’t Be Tardy For The Wedding! I know y’all have been counting down the days, have planned your parties – which you won’t be tardy for, rented your Zolciak-esque wigs, found the perfect side-boob bearing top (purchased from Alexis Couture, naturally), and have practiced chain-smoking whilst guzzling chardonnay and screaming “Swwwweeeeeeeeteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!” Oh, errrr… maybe that’s just me! But anyway, tonight is the series premiere.
Kim begins the process of preparing for her 11-11-11 nuptials and, of course, Kim being Kim she needs a lot of help. I mean the woman can’t even make a cup of coffee with assistance! Kim also contemplates a used wedding dress to live out her dream of wearing more gowns than Kim Kardashian! A preview of the series premiere is below!
Don’t Be Tardy For The Wedding premieres tonight at 9/8c on Bravo. Reality Tea will be Live-Tweeting the affair to remember, so don’t forget to join us for some mutual snarking!
THOUGHTS ON KIM’S COMMENTS ABOUT MARLO? DOES SHE HAVE A POINT OR IS KIM JUST AS BAD? WILL YOU BE WATCHING DON’T BE TARDY FOR THE WEDDING?

Hicks: Lindsay Lohan gets into another altercation
Another day, another incident involving Lindsay Lohan. Sorry — “alleged” incident.
For some reason (They make great appletinis? The bouncers are super cute? She’s stupid?), Lohan went back to Smoke and Mirrors, the nightclub at The Standard Hotel in Hollywood where she allegedly pushed a woman two weeks ago. She did this again, despite being strongly advised by a judge to stay out of clubs.
So, naturally she allegedly got into an altercation with another woman, which ended with a drink being tossed into Lohan’s face.
According to TMZ, Lohan’s friend drove her car to the hotel, at which time the friend entered the parking garage and hit another car. Which is strange, since Lindsay Lohan hadn’t been in a car accident for something like seven minutes at that point.
Witnesses said Lohan then called her dad, Michael, for help. He showed up (allegedly) and, like any good father would do, took his alcoholic daughter into the bar for two hours.
They (allegedly) hung out for a couple hours without drinking alcohol. TMZ says, around closing time, a woman in the booth next to theirs made a snide comment about Lohan showing up with her dad, to which Lohan replied “Shut the (expletive) up.”
Drinks flies, hits Lohan, she and dad take off, end of story.
Yes, someone pays me to tell you these stories.

Amanda Bynes: Don’t review me to Lindsay Lohan
Amanda Bynes thinks it’s “extremely unfair” that she is now being compared to Lindsay Lohan.
The Easy A actress has been hitting the headlines a lot recently following her DUI arrest and heavy partying lifestyle.
But sources close to the former teen star says she is nothing like the Mean Girls starlet despite the obvious similarities.
“Amanda thinks it’s extremely unfair that people are calling her the new Lindsay Lohan” the insider told RadarOnline.
“Comparisons between the two are just ridiculous as Amanda has never been arrested for drug possession or for stealing anything.
“Yes, she got arrested for a DUI, but that doesn’t mean that she is headed down the same road as Lindsay. Amanda doesn’t harbor any negative feelings towards Lindsay, she doesn’t even know her, she just thinks it’s sexist that the two are being compared.
“Men in Hollywood that get arrested for DUI’s don’t face the same scrutiny that women do and that is what really irks Amanda. She isn’t taking the DUI arrest lightly.”
Amanda has apparently refused advice to enter rehab despite loved ones thinking she has been on a “downward spiral for the last six months.”
