Can Lindsay Lohan Get in Trouble for Pimped-Out SCRAM?

Clark Samuels/Startracksphoto.com

It looks like Lindsay Lohan is prepping her court-ordered SCRAM bracelet for the red carpet.

The embattled starlet tweeted her desire to pimp out her new ankle accessory with designer logos, just days after receiving it (and taking it out on the town).

"Can CHANEL please help me out by getting me some stickers to put on my scram bracelet so that I can at least wear a chic dress?! maybe!?," Lohan tweeted Thursday night.

But would Lohan's bedazzling or otherwise defacing the monitor be considered tampering with the device? And could it get her into trouble with the court?

While it could cost her a chunk of change, a SCRAM spokeswoman tells E! News that Lohan's souped-up ankle monitor wouldn't get her in more hot water in court.

"Offenders sign an agreement at install," said Kathleen Brown of Alcohol Monitoring Systems, the manufacturer of the SCRAM. "They are financially responsible for any damage, or losing the bracelet and/or base station. [They] must pay for repairs up to replacement cost of $1,500."

Heroes, shmeroes! Hayden Panettiere is already onto bigger—if not better—things.

Fresh off her just-canceled TV series, Miss P has officially been cast in Wes Craven andKevin Williamson's long-awaited reboot,Scream 4. Joining the starlet is Julia'salmost equally famous niece, Emma Roberts.

The announcement of Roberts in the potential lead begs the question: what about rumored role-filler, Twilight vampiressAshley Greene?

A studio source tells E! News: "Despite reports of Ashley Greene being in negotiations to join the cast, Emma was the first and only choice by the filmmakers to play the lead role."

Well at least Greene has her Breaking Dawn bucks to console her.

Original Screamsters Neve Campbell, Courteney Cox and David Arquette are already slated to reprise their roles in the fourth installment of the hit franchise.

Are Idol's Lee and Crystal Making Sweet Music Together Already?!

Michael Becker / FOX

The confetti has been thrown. And the record deals have been signed. American Idolseason nine has officially come to a close.

Whether you picked "DeWyze" or phoned in for "MamaSox" to win it all, both winner Leeand runner-up Crystal want fans to know their music is coming to your faces soon. And possibly a pairing of the newly singleCrystal and the blue-eyed everyman? A pairing of the romantic persuasion?

"Oh, no! That wouldn't happen," Crystal quickly says when asked if she'd ever go for Lee. "He is like a brother to me. I love him dearly, but not that way." That's probably a good thing, seeing as fan girls everywhere would either implode from the awesome Idolpairing, or cry themselves to sleep over the fact that Lee was off the market.

While there will be no love match between the two, Crystal repeatedly mentioned Lee's hard work over the season and how he deserved to win, even going as far to say she knew that he was going to win "I woke up on Wednesday morning and I had this overwhelming feeling of peace and acceptance. And I had this strange feeling inside of me that Lee was going to win. And I was OK with that."

She continues on to say she was just "rolling with the punches" in terms of the break up and that while her ex Tony is a "great guy," she really isn't worried about all that right now.

What she is concentrating on is putting out an album. "I've actually got a meeting next week!" she chirps happily. "I'm ready to start working and get this underway." We can only assume that Crystal fans are just as ready for that album to crank out, an album she says will be full of "simple songs that people can relate to, enjoy, and hopefully learn something from".

As for your new Idol winner, Lee thinks America's decision came from him being "a real guy" above all else. "I really wanted the experience on the show to be about me, and my performing and my music. I think I can connect with the audience."

That's right, we got full sentences out of Mr. DeWyze today, as opposed to last time we talked to him. Way to go, dude!

Lee had already put out an album before his Idol experience (check out "Slumberland" here) and it's currently charting. When asked about it, he says it was cool to hear things like that, but he's more looking forward to the album he'll be making now. "I get to take time on it," he says happily. "I'm going to have a lot of say in it. I get the chance to write. I can't wait to make an album that represents me."

Lee, ever the grateful guy that he is, thanks the show for allowing him the platform to reach people with his music. And with the tour coming up faster than you can say "pants on the ground", Lee knows he'll get his moment. "I'm just excited to get on the big stage and perform and put on a show without time limits or judging," he tells us. We're excited too!

Is Miley More "Inappropriate" Than Taylor Momsen?

Kevin Winter/TCA 2009/Getty Images for Fox, Arun Nevader/WireImage.com

Why is it Miley Cyrus gets trashed for inappropriate fashion, but Taylor Momsen, who is a year younger, gets called a fashionista?
—MC, U.K., via the Answer B!tch inbox

Really? Fashionista? Go ahead and Google "Taylor Momsen" along with—and don't forget the quotes—"hot mess." You'll get about 78,000 results. And having that many associations with the term "hot mess," even if you are on Gossip Girl, does not a true fashionista make.

But, yes, the two are treated differently, and the reason is all about Miley Cyrus:

There is not a single reliable reference out there—not one—of Momsen even trying to cultivate a religious good-girl image.

You will find nary one report indicating that Momsen loves Jesus or reads the Bible in her spare time or is a family-type girl.

You will find many, many such references surrounding Miley Cyrus.

So when Cyrus spends a few seconds with a stripper pole, or poses in a Vanity Fair shoot that makes her look half-nekkid, or does a video in little more than a black rubber leotard-looking thing and some bird feathers, people are going to call her out.

Not for being a teenage slut, either, but for being a hypocrite.

For the record, by the way, Momsen does get flack for her goth-lite image.

"It just depends on what you consider dark, you know?" she said in a recent Associated Press interview. "I think some people think I'm a Satan worshipper or something."

The Most Depressing Video You'll Ever See

A two-year old singing Justin Bieber? Adorable.

A middle-aged, overweight woman crying and cursing and screaming at the results of American Idol? Less than adorable.

This is the best part of the video below: While his wife yells, bawls and says her life is ruined forever by the fact that Lee DeWyze won last night, the dude on the couch simply says: I told you so.

We love it... and hate it. Seriously, what does this say about the state of the country?

Simon Monjack Laid to Rest Next to Brittany Murphy

Simon Monjack has been buried next to Brittany Murphy following a service attended by 75 friends and family members at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in L.A.

“It was Simon's wish to be laid to rest next to her," said family spokesman Roger Neal at the private orthodox Jewish service. Monjack died on Sunday night.

The got to be together one last time as a rendition of Murphy singing a rendition of “Smile,” featuring Simon Monjack on the piano, was played to mourners.

A photo of the couple also sat on Monjack’s casket.

Tragically and appropriately, Simon and Brittany are together again.

"Sharon (Brittany’s mom) was strong and spoke at the service about how much she loved Simon, and how now Simon and Brittany are together,” added Neal.

"She told them, 'I'll miss you my babies.' She is understandably feeling devastated by the loss of a daughter and a son-in-law in the space of six months."

Monjack died in the house he shared with Murphy and her mother, who called 911 after finding both of them unconscious in the same room, months apart.

The preliminary cause of death for Simon has been listed as natural causes, not adrug overdose, though the L.A. Coroner’s office is conducting an autopsy.

Rest in peace, Simon and Brittany.

ABC to Air Miley Cyrus: Live from London

Miley Cyrus is about to make her primetime, network television debut.

Just a few days before her new album is released on June 22, ABC will air a one-hour special titled Miley Cyrus: Live from London.

It will be centered around footage from the singer's concert at O2 Arena in England, which was part of her Wonder World Tour. According to an ABC press release:

The program captures how Miley, who has grown up in the public eye, has grown as an artist, and reveals her natural progression and sophistication. The concert is gleaned from the full-length concert that will be available for sale June 22 on the deluxe version of Miley’s album.

Look for Cyrus to perform some of her biggest hits during the program, such as “Seven Things,” “Party in the USA” and “The Climb.”

We're sure Miley will explain to the world why she can't be tamed, as well.

This special airs on June 18 at 8 p.m. Will you tune in for it?

Lindsay Lohan is a Porn Star

Talk about typecasting. Lindsay Lohan landed a role in which she has to look trashy, dress in next to nothing and lie flat on her back - pretty much her entire skill set!

Amazingly, the photos below weren't taken during a typical night out on the Hollywood club scene, but for posters promoting her upcoming porn star biopicInferno.

Lohan plays Linda Lovelace, the late porno legend famous for her role in Deep Throat. The pics used in the posters below were taken by photographer Tyler Shields.

We thought Lindsay looked like she was ready for Cinemax in previous photos Shields took of her. Who would have guessed that wasn't even that far off the mark.

Hopefully Lohan's ankle bracelet won't get in the way of the many tricky maneuvers she likely must perform as part of this rigorous role. That would be a shame.

INFERNO: Lindsay Lohan as Linda Lovelace. Somehow it fits.

Paris Hilton Supports the Troops

Paris Hilton has taken a break from harassing Doug Reinhardt with phone calls to focus on a slightly more important task:

Supporting American troops.

The socialite showed up in New York City this week at "Swinging Salute to Our Troops," an event sponsored by the USO. Even though one officer below didn't seem excited to pose with Paris, it's the thought that counts. Gotta give her props for the effort.

Earlier this spring, Kim Kardashian was also honored by the troops. What's with these guys and former sex tape stars?

We guess that answer is obvious, huh? They are still warm-blooded males, after all. They may have enormous hearts and courage that the average individual can scarcely comprehend - but they also have penises.

Jon & Kate Gosselin Mark One Year Since Split

It has now been a year since the marriage of Kate and Jon Gosselin ended.

The weeks prior to the tearful, on-air confessionals confirming the split (and garnering record ratings) on Jon & Kate Plus 8 were a train wreck of epic proportions.

Rumors of Jon nailing his pal Deanna Hummel were the first to surface. Then Kate and Steve Neild. Then Jon and Hailey Glassman, Stephanie Santoro, and so on.

As their family crumbled under the microscope of celebrity gossip magazines and websites, Kate acknowledges there were difficult moments for their eight kids.

"[Nine-year-old daughter Cara] was upset with me because I forgot to sign them up for something at school," Kate tells People in its new cover story this week.

HAPPY DAZE: Jon and Kate Plus Eight, Minus Bitterness.

"I said, 'Cara, I had a really rough year. This is a new year. You've got to give me that. Let's start over.' So I've really worked to keep my word with them."

In general, Kate says, her children – twins Cara and Mady and sextuplets Alexis, Hannah, Leah, Aaden, Collin and Joel – have weathered the storm well.

"They're just amazing, resilient, loving kids."

The reality TV mom and her children will return to TLC in a new, revamped Kate Plus 8, airing June 6. The family recently filmed the show in Orlando, Fla.

There, they also celebrated the sextuplets' sixth birthday. Back home, they also got to see dad ... and were introduced to Jon's new girlfriend Ellen Ross.

Poor kids. Hang in there, y'all.

Lawyers to Tiger Woods: No Dating Allowed!

At this point, it's looking like a matter of when, not if Tiger Woods gets divorced from wife Elin. But until that happens, his handlers want him under lock and key.

According to reports, the golfer's legal team told him he won't be able to date until the split is completely finalized. The reason? Well, it's kind of obvious, right?

Says a source close to the situation:

"Elin's building a character case [based on serial philandering]. Elin's team is watching Tiger's every move. She wants more money than Michael Jordan's ex got."

Jordan's ex-wife reportedly received $168 million. Elin is said to want $750 million (!) which may be a stretch, but even if she gets a quarter of that ... wow.

Tiger's reaction to being barred from dating was likely similar.

She certainly has enough material on Tiger to make a compelling case as it is. If he were caught mauling Joslyn James or that Elin Woods look-alike, though? Wow.

As for custody of the couple's two small children?

"They'll share it, but she wants the ability to take them to Sweden whenever she wants," says the insider. Tiger wants the right to object in court - here or abroad.

Things are already getting ugly, too. His other main hangup? He wants this confidential - now and 'til the end of time. As in no interviews or books by Elin. Ever.

She's balking at that so far. Stay tuned ...

Gary Coleman on Life Support, Unconscious After Suffering Brain Hemorrhage

The manager of Gary Coleman is asking for our "thoughts and prayers" as the former child star, now 42, is on life support after suffering a brain hemorrhage.

He suffered the injury in his Utah home on Wednesday. Coleman was hospitalizedfor treatment, his manager John Alcantar said, and was in critical condition.

Things took a turn for the worse, though, when Coleman was transferred to the ICU at Utah Valley Regional Medical Center for further tests and treatment:

"As of May 27, Mr. Coleman was conscious and lucid. By early afternoon, Mr. Coleman was slipping in and out of consciousness and his condition worsened.

"We are very saddened to announce that since mid-afternoon, Mountain Time, on May 27, 2010, Mr. Coleman has been unconscious and on life support."

Alcantar says that despite Coleman's recent history of health problems and personal issues, "he always has had fond memories of being an entertainer."

"He appreciates his fans for all their support. At this critical moment, we can only ask for thoughts and prayers for Gary to make a speedy, full recovery."

If it's any consolation, Bret Michaels also suffered a brain hemorrhage and bounced back from similarly long odds. Here's hoping Coleman can do the same.

Charlie Sheen Will Plead Guilty, May Serve Jail Time in Assault Case

Charlie Sheen is preparing to plead guilty to a misdemeanor charge stemming from his Christmas assault on wife Brooke Mueller - but will he go to jail?

As part of a plea deal with the Colorado District Attorney's office, Charlie may be facing as many as 45 days in the slammer in Aspen's Pitkin County Jail.

In exchange for Sheen's plea, a felony menacing charge will be dropped.

Sheen's next court appearance is set for June 7, where his plea deal can be entered and his trial in the case (currently set for July 21) therefor canceled.

As for what his punishment will be, sources connected with the case say the D.A. in Aspen and Charlie's lawyers have hammered out four scenarios ...

Charlie Sheen's assault on Brooke Mueller will result in a legal reprimand next week. But the actor is reportedly unsure which of the below scenarios he is willing to accept.

1. Charlie pleads guilty to a misdemeanor and serve 30 days in jail. He enters the plea June 7 and immediately begins serving time. With good behavior, it could truncate to 17 days. After that stint, the case is closed. No probation.
2. Charlie pleads guilty to a misdemeanor and receives no jail time, but is placed on two years probation. Sounds great, but if the star slips up, the judge could throw the book at him and he could be facing far more than 30 days in jail.
3. Charlie receives "deferred prosecution," i.e. the case will not go forward but the Two and a Half Men star must agree to various conditions, like not breaking the law. After a certain period of compliance, the matter would be expunged.
4. Go to trial. Sheen is reportedly upset at the Tito Ortiz case, in which the UFC star was not prosecuted, even after allegations similar to those made against Sheen. This would be a huge roll of the dice, because losing ensures jail time.

It's all in his hands at this point, so stay tuned.
