Lindsay Lohan’s solemn manager is Courtney Love
Courtney Love has become Lindsay Lohan’s sobriety coach.
The Hole singer – widow of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain – has battled drink and drug addiction in the past and wants to pass her knowledge and advice to the troubled ‘Mean Girls’ actress, who has been in rehab five times. She said: “I’ve taken up Lohan because nobody else will. [She's] further down the line than I was, because there was no [gossip websites like] TMZ then.” This is not the first time Courtney,47, has revealed she is helping 25-year-old Lindsay – who is currently completing her court ordered community service – stay away from drink and drugs. She recalled to Details magazine: “I went up to Lindsay’s room one time and there was a show on called ’101 Celebrity Oops’ and I am like every other one, you know – boobs out, legs everywhere, throwing s**t at Madonna, you know, whatever. I’m like ‘Lindsay, look! Drugs are bad!’ “ Courtney has had help from her celebrity pals in the past to help beat her addictions, in particular, Orlando Bloom. Speaking in 2008, she revealed: “We chant every day. The 12-step programme demands that you have a spiritual practice that you do daily. “I love Orlando for this. He doesn’t mind being outed as a Buddhist. I don’t mind talking about it because it has changed my entire life, changed everything – restructured my body, restructured my physicality. Truly I can, not all the time, but I can take joy at really s****y situations.”

As if Lindsay Lohan didn’t have enough problems already.
Rocker Courtney Love, known around Seattle as the Kurt Cobain’s widow, is offering to coach troubled Lohan through her substance-abuse problems. That’s something Love knows a little bit about, considering her much-publicized history with drug use — but she might not be the first person you’d think when listing potential sobriety coaches.
RadarOnline reports Love says Lohan has more substance-abuse problems than she did in her youth, and that constantly being in the limelight doesn’t help. Love said she’s taken over as the star’s sobriety coach “because nobody else will.”
Love says she’s been clean since 2005. Now it’s apparently a case of do as I say, not as I do.
“I went up to Lindsay’s room one time and there was a show on called ’101 Celebrity Oops,’ and I am like every other one, you know – boobs out, legs everywhere, throwing s**t at Madonna, you know, whatever,” Love said. “I’m like ‘Lindsay, look! Drugs are bad!’”
Love said she wouldn’t have done as many drugs if not for Cobain. “Before I met Kurt, I was more or less clean,” she told celebrity gossip site The Fix earlier this year.
No word on whether Lohan has accepted Love’s well-intentioned advances.

Unseen Michael Jackson Film Set To Sell For Millions
The driver, who wishes to remain anonymous, has chauffeured a variety of famous people from Margret Thatcher to Madonna. But in 1993, he worked for Michael Jackson during the Pepsi-Cola sponsored wold tour in which Jackson performed to over 3.5 million people, making it one of the biggest in history.
Until now, the driver kept the tape to himself until singer’s death in 2009, when he disclosed proof of ownership by leaking a small clip on to YouTube.
Jackson’s record label and lawyers for his estate immediately removed the clip after they claimed to have exclusive rights to the footage.
US law dictates the right of possession as a gift, meaning the driver has the right to sell the film to third parties, but not to distribute copies.
The two-hour film has become the subject of legend among Jackson fans with various speculation about its whereabouts. The film also features behind-the-scenes footage of Jordy Chandler – the boy at the centre of the child-abuse scandal that dogged Jackson.
The film is expected to sell for at least £4 million when it goes under the hammer on November 26.
The ‘Dangerous’ tour ran from June 1992 to November 1993 but ended abruptly when Jackson was taken to hospital.
Jackson died in June 2009 after receiving a fatal overdose of prescription drugs, including the powerful anaesthetic propofol.
Jackson’s personal doctor Conrad Murray, who administered the drugs, was convicted of the involuntary manslaughter of the singer earlier this month after a lengthy trial.
