Only in Hollywood: Lindsay Lohan’s lawyer is asking a judge to delay her trial because people hate her. Seriously, he claims she can’t get a fair shake with a jury.
Ed McPherson represents Lindsay in the civil lawsuit in which people allege that she terrorized them during a wild, drunken Pacific Coast Highway joyride in 2007.
Was sexting Joslyn James worth it? Scorned wife Elin Nordegren is reportedly trying to club an eye-popping $750 million out of Tiger Woods in their divorce.
That sum of money may be a bit of a reach. Forbes has estimated his net work at a paltry $600 million (though he has earned $1 billion career, to his credit).
Sources close to the Tiger divorce negotiations say the golfer hasn’t agreed to any sum, but when he does, he wants total, legal silence from his ex in return.
About the collapse of their marriage, about their life together. Then, now, forever. Absolutely nothing to the media. He’s pressed her on this subject already.
But how will that sit with Elin Woods?
So far, not well! Nordegren said no to signing a lifetime “confidentiality clause” that would prevent her from writing a book or doing interviews about the split.
OUCH: Can Tiger spare $750 million? Elin Woods is gonna find out!
She reportedly also wants full custody of their two young children even though it was first believed that the couple were going to agree to joint custody.
Sources said the Tiger Woods divorce discussions “have turned extremely testy” and are already getting ugly as the couple no longer speaks to each other.
Nordegren has spent a lot of time away in recent months. She went to Arizona alone for a week and took the kids to Sweden while Tiger returned to golf.
Elin is said to be considering a move to Sweden for good. Tiger Woods, meanwhile, has supposedly been on the prowl in Florida with an Elin look-alike.
That’s sure to go over really well.

Helen Wagner
Helen Wagner, best known for playing Nancy Hughes on As the World Turns for more than a half-century, has died. She was 91.
Wagner, who acted up until her death, died Saturday, the show’s New York-based production company, TeleNext Media Inc., announced. She spoke the first words on As the World Turns when it premiered in 1956, and holds the Guinness World Record for playing the same role on television for the longest time (54 years). She was awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award from the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences in 2004.

“All of us at As The World Turns are deeply saddened by Helen’s passing,” executive producer Christopher Goutman said. “She is loved by generations of fans and, while we will miss her greatly, Helen will always remain the heart and soul of As The World Turns.”
On Nov. 22, 1963, Wagner’s character was saying her lines when the broadcast was interrupted with a “CBS News Bulletin” sign and Walter Cronkite announced that President John F. Kennedy had been shot in Dallas.
Before joining the CBS soap opera, Wagner appeared on TV programs including Studio One, Philco Television Playhouse and The World of Mr. Sweeney.
Born in Lubbock, Texas, she also starred in several Broadway productions including Rodgers and Hammerstein’s Oklahoma!, A Streetcar Named Desire, The Bad Seed, My Name Is Acquilon and Love of Four Colonels.
Wagner was married to Broadway producer Robert Willey from 1954 until his death in May 2009.
The Kardashians are getting way too predictable.
Earlier today, we posted a pair of tabloid covers that called out the relationships of Kim, Khloe and Kourtney. We said the stories were likely planted by their publicists, so the siblings could respond later, garner sympathy from their fans and remain a major part of the entertainment news cycle.
It only took a few hours for the sisters to prove us right. Point, THG!
First, Khloe took to her blog and wrote:
“My sisters and I had a great laugh this morning. Star and InTouch decided to attack our relationships. Apparently I’m heading for divorce, Kim was dumped and Kourt was duped… Wow, sad week for us Kardashian sisters, and how coincidental that this all happened at the same time!”
This is how the Kardashians roll: They greenlight negative stories to tabloids, whine about them to the press, boost the sales of said tabloids, make new headlines for themselves… and then do it all again a month later.
Kim then chimed in from her blog:
“OMG! Have you guys seen the front pages of In Touch and Star today!? Do NOT Trust the Media!!!!!!”
In closing, Kourtney, brought this perfect storm of publicity for the family home:
“Week after week Scott and I have been on the cover of In Touch with stories that make us laugh…. We have been blessed with the most amazing, beautiful baby boy and couldn’t be happier. And saying that Scotts initials are STD and that he had a dogtag because he was proud of it… his initials are SMD, but nice story, idiots.”
On one hand, you have to be digusted that so many people still buy into the Kardashian myth (i.e. that there’s an ounce of unscripted drama to anything they do and say).
On the other hand, you really need to be in awe of the way they’ve taken advantage of a culture that’s so obsessed with people whose biggest accomplishment to date is to focus the camera while Ray J does his thing.

Dr. Drew, Celebrity Rehab
As the star of three seasons of Celebrity Rehab, Dr. Drew Pinsky knows he might sound hypocritical when he tells people not to fixate on celebrities’ lives.
“I understand that people interpret this as hypocritical, but what I mean to say is the media is presenting really disturbed people in desperate straits, and we as consumers are just lapping it up. And that says something about us, not about them,” Pinsky told TVGuide.com. “I’m also the person treating addiction saying, ‘Don’t do drugs.’ But I’ve got to go to where the problem is to address it. When it stops, I’ll stop — happily.”
