Lindsay Lohan Saying She Didn’t Party in Cannes
Posted by Robin Paulson Categories: Movies, Drugs, Drunk, Parties, Videos,
Judging by an interview prior to today’s court appearance, Lindsay Lohan doesn’t have the greatest acting chops.
The troubled starlet had a sit down with Hollywood.TV, who explicitly asked her some hard-pressed questions, notably relating to all of her Cannes-capades. When asked why she thought it would be more important to party in Cannes than to go to her hearing, Lohan was quick to say, “I wasn’t partying in Cannes. I was there for work. More than ten people can attest to that.”
I’d say that there are more than at least a hundred people who would
say otherwise… with photographic (see picture to right) and eye witness accounts.
In the video (seen after the jump), Lohan also claims that the now-infamous photograph of her next to cocaine was taken with a fan who asked her to come into a room to take the picture. I don’t know what’s more idiotic of her—that she would go into an unknown fan’s room without hesitation or that we would believe such a story in the first place.
People still wonder why we continue to watch her entertaining soap opera of a life? More importantly, why is Lohan always frowning anywhere she’s not at a party?

Prescription Drugs Found Near Simon Monjack
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Drugs, Breaking News, Obituaries,
Prescription drugs were found close to Simon Monjack’s body.
The British screenwriter - whose wife Brittany Murphy died in December aged just 32 - was discovered “unresponsive” in the bedroom of his Hollywood home last night and Los Angeles coroners are currently investigating why the 39-year-old passed away.
Los Angeles County Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said, “There were some prescription drugs found that belonged to Mr. Monjack, and we’ll have an ongoing investigation. Cause of death is pending, and there will be an autopsy after a day or so, and pending toxicology reports, we’ll be releasing the results after we get all those tests back. The family is devastated at this time, and it is under investigation.”
According to the coroner, Simon’s body was found in the master bedroom and there “were no illicit drugs location - just prescription medications,” though he declined to say what they were. Simon’s death will not be investigated by police as there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding his passing.

Lindsay Lohan Submits to Random Drug Tests, SCRAM
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Drugs, Drunk, Legal Issues, Breaking News,
After a weekend of hardcore partying in Cannes, Lindsay Lohan is back in the states and has been ordered to submit to random drug testing.
The
actress appeared in a Beverly Hills court today for a probation review hearing, where she was told by Judge Marsha Revel she can remain out on bail, but only if she abstains from drinking alcohol, wears a SCRAM bracelet - which monitors alcohol consumption - and attends at least one alcohol education class a week.
The judge also indicated the 23-year-old star must stay in the Los Angeles area, despite her being lined up to work on a movie in Texas. A formal hearing to determine if Lindsay has violated her probation - which she was placed on following her second driving under the influence (DUI) conviction in 2007 - has been scheduled for July 6.
If she is found in breach of the terms, Lindsay - who is expected to face at least five drug tests before then - could be jailed for 180 days. Lindsay was originally scheduled to appear in court last Thursday, but was stranded in Cannes, France, after claiming her passport had been stolen.

Michael Lohan Wants Lindsay in Rehab
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Drugs, Drunk, Legal Issues,
The celebrity with a family that cares: Lindsay Lohan‘s father has begged a judge to order her to rehab.
Michael Lohan - who has repeatedly claimed the actress is addicted to prescription drugs - had his lawyer Lisa Bloom write a letter to the official presiding over her driving over the influence (DUI) probation case asking for more steps to be taken to intervene in his daughter’s life. The note read: “It is clear to Michael that the current court-ordered condition of her probation - namely, that she is required only to attend alcohol education classes - is insufficient.”
The letter goes on to ask that the judge “order Lindsay into an inpatient residential drug and alcohol treatment program.” In the document, obtained by TMZ, it is suggested the Mean Girls star could receive treatment at New York facility Cold Spring Hills, adding, “Her family could easily attend family therapy with her as needed.”
Michael acknowledges the 23-year-old star may not be sent to rehab, so has also suggested an alternative intervention plan. The letter explains, “Michael respectfully requests the Court order Lindsay to be subject to frequent, random, court ordered drug testing; that Lindsay be subjected to random searches of her home and person by law enforcement; and that Lindsay’s probation be extended for an additional term of years to continue her period of court supervision.”

Although the actor’s name had been linked to an ongoing illegal drug ring, Corey Haim’s death was not a result of any substances.
The Los Angeles County Coroner officially announced today that the Lost Boy star died on March 10 due to natural causes.
The 38-year-old, who had had troubles with addiction, passed away as a result of pneumonia complicated by an enlarged heart, bad lungs and narrowed blood vessels. While there were traces of marijuana and other medications in his system, they had “no significant contributing factors” in his death.
According to the autopsy report, Haim’s mother admitted getting rid of prescription medications in the home after his death “because she didn’t want anyone else to get hold of the medication and she didn’t know the police would be responding to her residence.”

Michael Douglas Hopes Jail Will Save Son
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Movies, Drugs, Legal Issues,
Michael Douglas believes prison will save his son’s life.
The 65-year-old actor thinks the five-year sentence handed to Cameron, 31, for drug dealing will finally help him overcome his addiction problems and allow him to make a “fresh start” when he is released.
“My son has not been sober for this length of time since he was 13 years old. So he was going to be dead or somebody was going to kill him, and I think he has a chance to start a new life and he knows that. And from my understanding, it’s going to take that amount of time for him to rebuild and start himself afresh. My son was a drug dealer, and he tried to kill himself for a while, and I can’t condone his behavior. With all the mistakes and the disease that Cameron has, he is a great young man and I wouldn’t be supporting him if I didn’t feel that way.”
The Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps star and ex-wife Diandra Luker were criticized by the judge presiding over Cameron’s case for being “distant and problematic” parents to the DJ-and-actor during his childhood and Michael - who is now married to Catherine Zeta-Jones - accepts he made mistakes.

UPDATE: According to the coroner, Corey Haim died as result of natural causes.
Judy Haim has put a halt to Corey Feldman’s plans to hold a public memorial for her deceased son Corey Haim. The 80s-era teen icon died early in the morning of March 10, 2010.

UPDATE: According to the coroner, Corey Haim died as result of natural causes.
Fans woke up Wednesday morning with the sad news that 1980s teen icon Corey Haim died during the night. Unfortunately, this headline is not uncommon…nor is the sad story that sums up the once-promising actor’s young life. Perhaps best known as Corey Feldman’s frequent co-star, Corey Haim was once one of the most popular stars in the country. During his heyday of The Lost Boys, License to Drive and Lucas, Haim captivated hearts - and casting directors - with his trademark smirk and level gaze. It’s too bad that, at the same time, substance abuse captivated him.

Corey Feldman Reacts to Corey Haim’s Death
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Movies, Television, Drugs,
UPDATE: According to the coroner, Corey Haim died as result of natural causes.
Hours after learning about Corey Haim’s death, actor Corey Feldman - his Lost Boys and Two Coreys co-star - issued this statement about his longtime friend:
“I was awakened at 8:30 this morning by my brother and sister knocking on my bedroom door. They informed me of the loss of my brother Corey Haim. My eyes weren’t even open all the way when the tears started streaming down my face. I am so sorry for Corey, his mother Judy, his family, my family, all of our fans, and of course my son who I will have to find a way to explain this to when he gets home from school. This is a tragic loss of a wonderful, beautiful, tormented soul, who will always be my brother, family, and best friend. We must all take this as a lesson in how we treat the people we share this world with while they are still here to make a difference. Please respect our families as we struggle and grieve through this difficult time. I hope the art Corey has left behind will be remembered as the passion of that for which he truly lived.
