AN AUSTRALIAN model and actress stepped in as Lindsay Lohan’s body double when the actress looking to rebuild her shattered career arrived two hours late.


Tara Beaulieu, 28, stood in for Lohan to help ensure production costs did not mount up as the show’s producers tried to locate the troubled actress.

“They chose me because my measurements are the exact same and I had to fit into the same Prada dress,” Beaulieu told website Celebuzz.

“I can’t say too much about the episode. It’s great, but Glee fans will have to wait. It’s been a rather enjoyable few days on set.”

Beaulieu’s measurements, according to her personal website, are a 24 inch waist, 34 inch hips and a 35 inch bust.

Beaulieu has previously been told she resembles Lohan.

“It’s not the first time I’ve been told I look like Lindsay. Previously, I’ve been followed by paparazzi who thought I was her,” she said.

Lohan “showed up more than two hours late,” for her scheduled appearance  with production staff reported to have sent a car to the Chateau Marmont hotel to pick her up and bring her to the set, Celebuzz reported.

A source told E! News: “Lindsay was a total nightmare. She was three hours late in the morning and when she did finally arrive, she just didn’t want to be there.

“She did not want to work. She did not memorise her lines and she kept disappearing so no one could find her.”

The 25-year-old Lohan, who was filming follow-ups after shooting the majority of her role last week, was seen taking a cigarette break in between takes as she returned to the set the next day, apparently after arriving on time.

She was dressed in a grungy ensemble of khaki top, black leggings, brown ankle boots and a black leather jacket with gold embellishment, and was spotted chatting to the show’s star Cory Monteith.

Meanwhile other members of the Glee cast including Lea Michele, Dianna Agron and Heather Morris were spotted shooting scenes in matching red and black dresses.

Lohan had allegedly been out at a Hollywood party and then showed up late for her call time.

Dot Marie Jones, who plays Coach Beiste on the show, tweeted: “Gonna be a long day!! Some ppl show up late and just throw a wrench in things.

‘Not cool! I’d rather be an hour early (I was) than 5 minutes late!’

Jones didn’t name the tardy individual, and later deleted the tweet, but webiste TMZ claimed to have confirmed it was Lohan.

Lohan’s spokesperson Steve Honig has claimed her lateness to the set yesterday was a ‘misunderstanding’.

“The production team came to us and said that they wanted to start [with Lindsay] right after lunch, which was at 2pm,” he said.

Kardashian Family Inks $40 Million Deal; Guarantees Three More Seasons Of KUWTK! Plus Is Lamar Giving Up Basketball For Reality TV?

Well, I have some unfortunate news, so I hope you’re all sitting down. The Kardashians will definitely NOT be leaving our TV’s anytime soon – or our pop culture lexicon. Despite Kim Kardashian‘s sham wedding (with accompanying very public divorce) and the tremendous negative backlash from the media and the public, American’s favorite famewhores have just inked a $40 Million three-year reality television deal with E!. So, if this doesn’t confirm that Kimye is a publicity stunt – really, I don’t know what would!

Yes, despite petitions, and threats, and absolute proof that their shows are staged crap – they will be back whether we like it or not!

According to TMZ, the attention-seeking family behind Keeping Up With The Kardashians will continue airing all their dirty laundry – real and created – for our viewing consumption with the lion’s share of the massive deal being split between Kris Jenner, Bruce Jenner, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, and of course no 1 paycheck, Kim, all of whom will receive equal salaries!

Ironically the numbers for last season’s KUWTK averaged only about 3 M viewers per episode – on par (or below) with most Housewives, but apparently the Kardashians’ scandals and drama are worth their weight in gold for the network; which basically exists purely to broadcast the family’s lives. The deal does not include any new shows! So when Kim and Kanye West start pimping out their totally authentic romance, they will iron out their own deal. Which means more ka-ching!

The less famous and thereby second-rate family members, Rob Kardashian along with Kylie and Kendall Jenner will receive considerably less. Scott Disick and Mason also get a cut of the profit, but they have a separate deal with the network. You know Kris was trying to insure against any possible break-ups!

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON TO READ THE REST!

Also, getting in on the action is former NBA star Lamar Odom, who landed himself a package deal to participate in both KUWTK and Khloe Lamar. So much for that reality television stuff interfering with his basketball career! And his threats to leave reality television behind! I guess Kris is carrying his balls in her Chanel handbag after all!

And speaking of Lamar and that little basketball stuff he used to do, apparently, Kris has been pressuring Lamar and Khloe to continue with television to avoid letting the family down! “Kris is eager for Khloe and Lamar to do another season of their reality show, but Khloe has been telling her that she is not sure yet,” a friend tells HollywoodLife.

“Kris thinks doing another season will help their relationship, but the real reason she wants them to do another season of Khloe Lamar is because she thinks the show keeps them relevant. Plus, if Lamar doesn’t get picked up for the NBA, the focus of the next season can be about them starting a family and undergoing infertility treatments.”

“Lamar should get the shows out of his system now, because nobody wants to deal with the headache it will bring to the locker room if a team signed him,” the source adds. “Teams have to deal with enough, and these outside distractions will not be welcomed. Teams are now worrying about younger and cheaper players that are not headcases who do reality shows — they are against it.”

And finally, Kim recently lauded praise on her favorite thing in all the world – the media! Specifically the internet, which she directly credits for her success. And truly it is, because when that sex tape she made went viral, everyone started paying attention!

“I think that the internet has brought on a different kind of celebrity. We are very well aware of who we are, and what our place is,” Kim gushed to Paper Mag. “We are so active on Twitter, on our Facebook pages — we are writing back, we are connecting. We enjoy it.” Kim certainly enjoys posting lingerie pictures, I’ve noticed!

Ryan Seacrest was like, ‘You’ve got to get on Twitter. Just try it. Please.’ So I went to Mexico, and got the craziest sunburn. I tweeted a picture of it, and within an hour it was on CNN in Mexico. I was like, ‘I don’t understand this,’ but I’ve been addicted ever since.”

Kim also admits she’s not opposed to confronting her haters and other juvenile pranks via the tweeter! “I love writing them back. People will write me, ‘My phone battery lasts longer than Kim Kardashian’s marriage,’ and I’ll write back, ‘Oh, which phone is that?;’” Kim claims. “When people are so stupid, you just have to have fun with it. Someone [without a profile photo] will say I’m fat, or a hairy Armenian, and I’ll write back, ‘Oh, that egg picture of yours is so gorgeous.’”

Kim is so witty and clever isn’t she! And she certainly doesn’t have too much time on her hands – not at all!

ARE YOU SHOCKED? WILL YOU BE WATCHING? IS LAMAR THROWING AWAY HIS BASKETBALL CAREER FOR REALITY TV? DID THE INTERNET HELP MAKE THE KARDASHIANS FAMOUS?

Taylor Armstrong Distraught About Being Phased Out Of RHOBH; Learned Of Bravo’s Plan By Reading Tabloids! Plus Adrienne To Relocate Her NBA Team!

Following yesterday’s report that Taylor Armstrong will be “phased out” of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the reality trainwreck star is freaking out. Even worse, Taylor allegedly found out about Bravo’s plan to gradually remove her from the cast from reading the tabloids! Oops—that’s gotta sting!

Upon hearing the gossip, Taylor immediately got on the phone to Bravo producers for reassurance, only to be told that the rumor was kinda true! “Taylor called because she was certain that there was no way that she was going to be phased out,” a source close to the reality star reveals to RadarOnline. “However, when she spoke with the higher ups they didn’t deny that she would be featured on the show in a much more limited capacity with a much smaller role.”

The news is devastating to Taylor, who is under contract for another year and will not be eligible to secure any other TV deals until released! “Taylor now knows that her days on the show are numbered. She is extremely upset because she just signed a contract extension for season three, but she wasn’t made aware of Bravo’s plans for her. She absolutely freaked out because she counts on the show as her primary source of income and uses it as a platform to secure other endorsement deals.” Uh-oh!

Moving on, Adrienne Maloof and her family are again threatening to move their NBA team, the Saramento Kings. If you recall, last season Adrienne was shown attending what could possibly be the final game at the King’s Sacramento stadium, and was faced with protests from local residents. Adrienne announced that upon learning how much the team meant to the community they had decided not to relocate the team.

However, a year later, things have changed. According to the NY Times, the outdated arena remains a problem for the team owners, and the family is hinting that the team’s days in the city are numbered. Yesterday, the Maloof family hosted a press conference in which they detailed plans to relocate the team, because a soluble agreement with the city could not be reached.

Apparently, in October of last year, the family reached a “handshake deal” with Sacramento Mayor, Kevin Johnson, agreeing to financial terms for the new arena; but the deal is no longer sufficient. The Maloofs would like the deal renegotiated and they would like to see progress to substantiate the agreement, but the city is not prepared to make changes or agree to a proposed renovation of the exiting arena. Other areas of contention include the lease agreement for the new facility, naming rights, arena design, and responsibility of game-day expenses.

The Maloof family also objects to the city’s request for a financial contribution of an additional $3.2 million towards the project when they were already expected to shell-out $73M. The NBA was prepared to loan the family $67 M and give them an additional $7M for the construction with the city kicking in $255M. Sheesh—that’s one hell of an outrageously expensive basketball court! Maybe they can borrow the court at the local YMCA?

“If [Mayor Kevin Johnson] says he’s not negotiating, then he killed the deal,” Adrienne’s brother, George Maloof, said in a press conference yesterday. “It’s over.”

Since the deal was non-binding, the Maloofs have every right to back out and begin looking for a new location for the team as the move is apparently imminent.

THOUGHTS ON LATEST IN THE RHOBH CASTING DRAMA? DO YOU BELIEVE THE NEWS THAT TAYLOR WILL BE “PHASED OUT”? IS IT A MISTAKE FOR THE MALOOF’S TO MOVE THEIR NBA TEAM?

Lindsay Lohan indicted of assault; her publicist cries foul

lindsay-lohan-assault-claim-nightclub.JPGLindsay Lohan was all smiles last month as a judge ruled that the actress has completed all the requirements of her long drawn-out probation.

These days, Lindsay Lohan is not so much a human being as a business opportunity. There must be a cottage industry built around the starlet’s various and sundry screw-ups — or least a cadre of entrepreneurial sorts goading her into missteps. The latest: A woman who claims that Lohan shoved her a West Hollywood nightclub, a mere week after the actress completed the requirements of her drawn-out probation and was warned by a judge to stop club-hopping and focus on her work.

The aggrieved clubgoer filed a report Saturday at the West Hollywood Sheriff’s Station, Entertainment Weekly confirms. The incident reportedly happened on April 5. Although her formal probation is over, any lawbreaking can still be considered a violation of her unsupervised probation, which will last for another two years.

“The only terms left for you on that case are to obey all laws,” Judge Stephanie Sautner told Lohan at her last hearing March 29. “It’s not that hard. I know it’s kind of hard when people are following you around all the time, but that’s the life you chose.”

Lohan’s publicist dismissed the allegations outright. “As of right now, all indicators are that this is yet another example of somebody looking for either money, 15 minutes of fame, or a little bit of both,” Steve Honig tells EW. Sources tell TMZ.com that Lohan didn’t even leave her house the night in question.

Bethenny Ever After Recap: Balls In Hand


On last night’s episode of Bethenny Ever After, Bethenny had a girls weekend in Montauk where she confronted her daddy issues. She also wondered about Jason‘s vacations past as a homosexual. And we learn that Jason is finally growing part of a pair and putting his foot down about the home office situation by implementing a schedule!

Things start out with Bethenny meeting her new bestie Hoda for lunch. I do love Bethenny’s dress. The two have bonded over being very busy.

Over ordering Virginica oysters, Bethenny decides to inform both Hoda and the annoyed waiter that the menu options sound like her “wazoo” except nothing about Bethenny seems plump or balanced. Leave it to Bethenny to turn lunch porny. Good lord – she really needs to stop with the stupid, gross vag-talk. The waiter was mortified, which amused Beth.

After some more sex talk about kitchen counters and morning hook-ups, we learn more about Hoda‘s relationship, and it’s the real thing. Which is nice, but really what is this about? Is Bethenny now going to be on Today show? Is she Hoda’s new relationship counselor? Did Hoda find love using A Place of Yes? How come we’ve never heard of them being friends before and all the sudden they’re inseparable?

Bethenny‘s friend Teri visits; Teri instantly starts grilling Bethenny about baby no. 2 and Bethenny just has no time to try and conceive. Bethenny explains she just hasn’t done the typical Jewish thing, which is to get married young and pop out two kids. Instead she got married to her career and popped out two bottled cocktails. Teri warns Bethenny that only children aren’t as happy, which is kind of obnoxious. Teri also cautions that the second baby might look like Bethy instead of Jason.

Then Jason comes home with pizza, which further reaffirms that he’s perfect. Jason informs Bethenny of the new office schedule he implemented so they can have more family time. Good for you, J, don’t let ovaries make all the rules!

In the course of discussing a vacation to Spain, it emerges that Jason previously went to Barcelona with a bunch of guys before Bethenny met him. Bethenny starts hyperventalating and accusing him of going with a girl. Then she says going to Spain with your guy friends is “homosexual” and won’t stop grilling him for information about the trip. Um…does she seriously care? BTW – She couldn’t pay her rent, but was vacationing in Spain “a couple times”?

Bethenny is planning a girls weekend in Montauk (oh no, that’s so homosexual!) and she’s really excited to be getting away from her marriage and Jason. Afterwards, she picks up Nick in the Skinnygirl convertible to embark on a falafel crawl. Bethenny is wearing a dress I had in high school (isn’t plaid patchwork a little dated?). Bethenny, no surprise, goes straight for the balls and then asks if Nick’s balls are getting any action?

Nick shuts Bethenny down by reminding her that he’s the real writer so he can take notes on the food crawl. Nick also demonstrates that he has some balls and tells her what to do and what to order. I love Nick. I want to eat with Nick. Call me! God, I love falafel. Definitely call me, Nick.

Bethenny decides to take a break to get her eyebrows threaded. Which puts Nick off his falafel. Bethenny inquires about Nick’s below the belt grooming habits and he’s not interested in getting waxed, groomed, or threaded. Nick believes girls should like him for him and not for his lack of unibrow, but nonetheless agrees to go for it. I hope she gave him a raise. Bethenny keeps reminding Nick not to cry and meanwhile goes to town on the falafel pita.

Was I the only one who didn’t think Nick was being that dramatic? Bethenny thinks the next step is Nick shaving his balls. Can she please leave Nick’s balls alone. Ugh! He must have some clause in his contract stipulating that he has to put up with this and not sue for sexual harassment. Paging the EEOC!

Heading to Montauk with Cookie and Bryn, apparently Bethenny has never driven in the car alone. Except she’s not alone – she has Dawa. Her rules for the weekend are no crackberry and to focus exclusively on RR…and cocktails. She’s so lucky she has a nanny there to watch Bryn while she imbibes said cocktails and experiences said RR. Aaaahhh…parenthood among the rich.

Bethenny is hosting a cocktail party on Montauk beach. She’s invited a lot of her friends from college and their children. It’s a beautiful, relaxed party and she is having fun and being normal. FINALLY, she isn’t having some sort of meltdown over a rolled napkin or some other trivial nonsense. Luckily, Cookie is there to pick up the slack by attacking the waiter. Poor Cookie.

Bethenny‘s friends all want to know when baby no. 2 is coming. What they don’t know is that Bethenny and Jason are barely having sex – or speaking. Bethenny makes a funny comparing babies to Lays Potato Chips, quipping you can’t have just one! Who wants to bet Skinnygirl Lays is on its way. Bethenny reasonably asserts that planning for children has to be on your own terms.

Just when things are fun, the Skinnygirl plug starts happening when her friend launches into an impromptu infomercial about how amazing the margarita is, and how Bethenny is so smart and brilliant for bottling it. Listen, she is smart for bottling a margarita, but she isn’t curing cancer over there!

Nonetheless, I enjoy seeing Bethenny like this – fun, laid-back, and appreciating life. How freaking cute-beyond-cute was Bryn cooing, “I’m the baby.” Awww…Bryn! How on earth did that little girl get such amazingly shocking blue eyes – they’re beautiful. Bethenny is a cute mommy. It’s nice to see her not constantly playing for the cameras.

Burning off last night’s dinner, Bethenny and her fellow skinnymommies, attempt a paddle boat and really those things are impossible – I’m amazed they made it go at all.

Embarking upon The Sloppy Tuna, Bethenny immediately starts talking her own tuna. Yeah – eww. She’s making a lot of seafood comparisons to her ladyregions – maybe that’s the reason her sex life has cooled off a bit! Bethenny meets a petite superhero who confuses her with Ben Franklin. Aaaahhh…close enough – afterall, she has a lot of Ben Franklins in the bank!

After ditching The Sloppy Tuna, the ladies go to a beachfront restaurant where Bethenny gets emotionally sloppy. Bethenny recalls her past and reveals that she always considered her step-father, John, to be her real father, as he was the only person in her life she considers family. Bethenny recently ran into his daughter, whom she had never met, and it made her think about reaching out to John. Bethenny has an emotional moment thinking about Bryn not growing up with a close family and reflecting on how her upbringing made her such a hard person.

Bethenny wishes for Bryn to know the unconditional love she never had and to grow up soft and sweet. Bethenny’s friends are very supportive and encouraging. It was actually a nice scene of Bethenny behaving like a real person instead of putting on this act of the brassy and loud-mouthed crass person she thinks is charming. Bethenny comments that she needs to stop and enjoy her success and appreciate the moments. Good call, B!

Back in NYC, the nerutoworks are turned on at Bethenny‘s shrink’s office. Bethenny talks her conflicting feelings between her two fathers: her step-father and her real father. Side Note: Bethenny has a lot of Birkins for someone who isn’t spending money and only shops on sale. Dr. Amador reminds her that no matter what she says, she loves her biological father in a pure way and she has to accept that without focusing on it being a betrayal of her step-father.

Bethenny counters that she really only wanted a relationship with her father because he was kind of a big deal with a lot of money. Bethenny insists she never wanted her father’s love when they reconnected. Bethenny is being obtuse on purpose, she knows that line of reasoning is complete BS for the show. As she says, no one ever accused her of being stupid! She, of course, wanted love and acceptance from her parents and whether she wanted to admit or recognize it at fourteen is one thing, but at at forty she is wise enough to know the truth.

Dr. Amador insists Bethenny admit the facts – that she really wanted to have a relationship with her father and figure out why he abandoned her. Things end with Bethenny pondering her paradigm shift.

Next Week: Bethenny is launching lazy lingerie by discussing sex and sexywear in public and Jason is embarrassed! They continue to butt heads over their new apartment and Bethenny pitches the couples sailing trip with Dr. Amador and the two continue to fight. Me thinks Jason really doesn’t want to be on TV.
