LINDSAY ADMITS SHE WAS A COKEHEAD

Lindsay Lohan has finally admitted what we’ve known all along – that she blew her career, and nearly ended her life by downing as many alcoholic beverages and snorting as many piles of the snow as she could get her hands on. The 23-year-old has been in rehab three times, and was also caught in possession of cocaine at one point, but continued to deny that she had a public.

Lohan says now that she hit rock bottom in 2007 when her father first began speaking publicly of her problems, as well as of her mother. “I tried to mask my problems with alcohol, cocaine and mine-altering substances,” LiLo admits. “I ran myself down and lost track of who I was.”

(Michael Lohan, by the way, wasn’t about to shut up when she handed him a golden opportunity. He’s issued a statement saying that he’s happy that she’s owning up to her behavior, but that “SHE DID NOT GO ROCK BOTTOM WHEN I WENT PUBLIC.” And yes. He said it in all caps. He internet yelled it.)

As for that DUI arrest back in May of 2007, Lindsay now says she thanks her lucky stars that she didn’t injure anyone when she got behind the wheel after having three drinks. “I’ve been stupid and childish and I wasn’t thinking.”

So, has she stopped? Well, not entirely. According to LaLohan, the drug abuse is no longer an issue, but she still indulges in alcohol from time to time. “I know my limits. Partying so hard isn’t worth it.”

Meanwhile, Ne-Yo, who was working the actress on her third CD, has admitted that she’s much more talented than he initially gave her credit for being, and that he was originally excited to work with her. But according to the singer, “It just fell off and hasn’t got back on…I’m not gonna hold my breath.” Ne-Yo does, however, say that she may call him when she’s ready to get back into the studio and get to work.

CHARLIE SHEEN’S WIFE SUING REHAB CENTER

After reports that Charlie Sheen’s equally-messed-up half, Brooke Mueller, had checked into a second rehab facility less than a month after leaving her first, she has now left The Canyon, moved to another facility, and is preparing a lawsuit.

According to Mueller’s lawyer, there was a security breach at The Canyon, and Brooke’s personal information from her admission form, which outlined her substance abuse problems, was leaked to the tabloids. The aim at this point is to have the person responsible for taking the info to the media arrested.

The attorney says his client has relocated to a more secure rehab center, and the only information being given is that it “specializes in the type of treatment that Brooke needs so she can be the best mom she can be.”

Thank you, Captain Vague. Too bad we already know she’s a crack whore.

RYAN PHILLIPPE AND ABBIE CORNISH ARE ACTING LIKE HIGH SCHOOL KIDS

As news broke this week of Ryan Phillippe and Abbie Cornish’s break-up, supposedly of infidelity on Phillippe’s part, the two are now entangled in a bitter game of Who Broke Up With Who First?

Initial reports said that Abbie packed her belongings and moved out of their shared home after learning that Ryan had been cheating on her. Her rep says that the actress officially called it quits on their couplehood after four years.

Then, Phillippe’s reps came along behind her and insisted that he was the one who broke up with Abbie, asking her to get her crap together and get the heck out of their house.

The two began dating while Phillippe was still married to Reese Witherspoon, and why Abbie Cornish thought that she would be safe in the relationship after he CHEATED WITH HER intially, I don’t know.

But one thing is clear. There is only one way to settle this dispute: DANCE OFF DURING LUNCH PERIOD!

THE WHO MAY BE FACING ITS FINAL DAYS AS A BAND

First Aerosmith, than the Rolling Stones…classic rock bands have been having a tough time lately and inner-band squabbles have taken its toll on the members, leaving them contemplating a departure from the business. Now, It looks like The Who is seriously considering calling it quits – but not because they can’t get along.

Pete Townshend suffers from tinnitis, which is painful ringing and buzzing in his ears. The condition has been caused by years of the abnormally high volumes he’s been exposed to while performing. If things don’t improve for him soon, Townshend tells “Rolling Stone” magazine, “We’re finished…I can’t really see any way around the issue.”

Townshend will be testing a new in-ear monitoring system at a show in London next month, and how well it performs is going to be the deciding factor for the future of The Who.

If this is the end of the road for them, playing the halftime show at the Super Bowl is a pretty fantastic farewell to their fans.

FACEBOOK “BETTY WHITE TO HOST SNL” PUSH JUST MAY HAVE WORKED

It’s the triumphant return of “Golden Girl” Betty White, who, after a string of spunky appearances and a lifetime achievement win at the SAG awards, was being hailed as a shoe-in to host “SNL” on Facebook. A fan page dedicated to getting the legendary sketch show to book her quickly amassed hundreds of thousands of followers, and it seems that the campaign was mostly successful.

There’s rumblings that “SNL” is extremely close to booking the fun-loving actress to host. She wouldn’t be hosting alone, however. The show is reportedly working on assembling a “Women of Comedy” episode that would team her with much younger women who have had a successful career in the comedic apartment. Amy Poehler, Molly Shannon, Tina Fey, and several others are said to be on board.

NBC says that nobody has been confirmed at this point in time.

JESSICA SIMPSON WANTS HER OWN PIG

After her beloved dog Daisy’s tragic death at the hungry mouth of a coyote last year, Jessica Simpson is looking to get some snugglin’ from a pig.

And no, I don’t mean Nick Lachey.

The singer tweeted recently that she was thinking about getting a pet pig – an update she ended with the question, “Does this mean I’ll have to give up pork?”

Annnnnnd…cue PETA. The Animal Rights Activists have issued an angry statement saying that pigs “who are smarter than dogs and every bit as sensitive to pain and stress, don’t belong in Jessica’s stomach or carted around as her latest accessory.”

Not that Simpson would be the first celebrity to own a pet pig. Paris Hilton, a serial pet collector, had a teacup piglet named Princess Piglette last year. The bacon set her back a pretty penny, too: $4500!

LACEY SCHWIMMER BIDS FAREWELL TO DWTS

“Dancing With the Stars” will be missing a familiar face come the new season. Professional dancer Lacey Schwimmer has revealed that she won’t be returning to the show. In a twitter update, she said that she was sad she wouldn’t be returning. It hasn’t been made apparent whether or not she’s leaving of her own accord or if she’s possibly been fired from the show.

Schwimmer has been with “DWTS” since 2008, and has been partnered with Lance Bass, Steve-O and Mark Dacascos. Her highest placement overall was with the former NSync singer, with whom she placed third during the seventh season.

TIDBITS

Kirk Cameron has joined in the efforts to find his former “Growing Pains” co-star, Andrew Koenig, AKA “Boner.” The actor disappeared in Vancouver more than a week ago, and his family has since revealed that he’s been in a state of depression for quite some time. One friend of his has said that just prior to his disappearance, he disconnected his phone and gave some of his belongings to friends – a startling indicator that suicide may have been on his mind. Cameron has given a statement to “Life & Style” magazine, begging Andrew to call him, and offering prayers to his old friend and Koenig’s family.

Top Chef hostess Padma Lakshmi has welcomed a brand new baby girl. Krishna Thea Lakshmi was born on Saturday, and aside from a statement saying that mom and baby are both well, there have been no other details provided.
