Ali Lohan Steps Closer to Movie Career

Lindsay Lohan’s younger sister Ali is a step closer to following in her famous sibling’s footsteps – she has been tipped to take the lead role in a new blockbuster.Ali Lohan, who has been filming new reality show Living Lohan in a bid to raise her profile, recently auditioned for the multi-million dollar remake of 1986 camp classic Troll.

And after seeing her act, director John Carl Buechler admits that Lohan is currently favourite to land the lead role in the film, which is due to go into production later this year.

He tells E! online, “She was great. The camera loves her. She’s a really good actress…I am personally going to fight for her.”

The original movie starred Sonny Bono, June Lockhart and marked the feature-film debut of Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

Knightley: ‘Nudity’s No Problem’

Keira Knightley didn’t hesitate when she was asked to bare her breasts in new movie The Edge Of Love – because she believes sex scenes are more believable when performed by naked actors.

The 23-year-old actress has no qualms about appearing in the buff, insisting nudity has even become a habit of hers.

She tells People magazine, “I always bare my breasts. It’s not like it’s only in this film!”

So when Edge Of Love filmmaker John Maybury requested her to remove her bra, she was happy to oblige: “I said, ‘All right then.’

“It was very simple. It was a sex scene and I never like them when they’ve got bras on.”

Book Author: ‘Spears Fears She Won’t See Another Birthday’

Britney Spears fears she won’t live to see her 28th birthday, according to the author of a shocking new expose about the troubled pop star.

Biographer and journalist Ian Halperin spent 18 months studying the Toxic singer as an undercover paparazzo, getting close to the star and her inner circle.

And now he’s writing all about his findings in a new book which he hopes to have on shelves by Christmas.

Amid all the claims of drug abuse, bipolar problems and suicidal tendencies, Halperin states Spears told him personally she fears she will die at 27.

The biographer, who ironically penned a book about Kurt Cobain – who lost his life at 27, tells Life + Style magazine, “She told me she feared she’d die at age 27 (her current age), just like other music stars, like Janis Joplin and Kurt Cobain.”

Joplin and Cobain aren’t the only members of the sinister 27 Club – rock greats Jimi Hendrix, Jim Morrison and Brian Jones all perished before their 28th birthday.

Spears turns 28 on December 2.

Lohan Refuses to Submit Name for Emmys

 

Lindsay Lohan has taken her name out of the race for consideration at the forthcoming Emmy Awards – because her guest spot on Ugly Betty was too “brief”.

The actress landed a cameo role in the hit TV show, and was thus eligible to be nominated for the Outstanding Guest Actress in a Comedy Series trophy.

But Lohan insists she does not want to be put forward for the award just yet, because her character only graces the screen in one short scene.

Her publicist Leslie Sloane tells the Los Angeles Times’ Gold Derby blog, “The appearance was brief. We made a decision to wait.”

Instead Lohan – who plays a bully on the programme – will wait until the next season of Ugly Betty, when her character will have a more prominent role.

Britney Up for an Emmy?

 

The producers of U.S. sitcom How I Met Your Mother were left so impressed with Britney Spears’ two guest spots on the show they’re pushing for her to win an Emmy.

Ratings for the show soared when the pop star played a ditzy secretary in two recent episodes and now Spears is Emmy bound after being included on the official ballot as a possible nominee.

According to Ok! magazine, Spears one of 41 actresses, including Mary-Kate Olsen and Alyssa Milano in contention for a place on the shortlist.

The final ladies will then compete for Emmy gold in September.

Jolie: ‘Pitt’s Tattoo Means Nothing’

Angelina Jolie has shattered the myth surrounding partner Brad Pitt’s new tattoo – it’s a scribble she created.

Experts suggested the series of lines on the actor’s back represented the levees in the couple’s adopted New Orleans, Louisiana, but Jolie insists the skin art means nothing at all.

She tells Entertainment Weekly magazine, “We went to Davos… (and) one night we didn’t have anything to do, so I was drawing on his back.

“He just liked it! The picture everybody saw was kind of awkward, but it just lines up beautifully on his back, just enhances the part of the body I like.”

“I mean, it’s meaningful in that it’s us making angles and shapes out of each other’s body, that kind of a thing.”

Lohan Lands Leggings Deal at Fred Segal

Leave Miley Cyrus Alone, Says TV Producer

The creator of hit TV show Hannah Montana has called on the press to leave Miley Cyrus alone – insisting the media is unfairly scrutinising her life.

Cyrus, 15, shot to international fame on the Disney Channel programme, but has been hit by a series of scandals throughout this year.

Most recently, the teen was accused of inappropriately flaunting her body in a controversial Vanity Fair photoshoot.

But Michael Poryes, co-creator and executive producer of the series, insists the media should stop giving Cyrus a hard time, as she is just going through the usual stresses of being a teenager.

He says, “To say the tabloids are paying attention to her is a very kind way of saying it. It becomes like Miley Cyrus bites her finger nails is news at 11.

“They don’t give her a break for being able to go through the aches and pains of being an adolescent. Everyone has the right to go through being an adolescent. They blow everything out of proportion and a little misstep becomes the biggest tragedy that ever struck mankind.”

And Poryes reveals that everyone involved with the TV show is going out of their way to make Cyrus feel better about herself

$15 Million Bidding War Over Jolie Twins Picture

America’s biggest magazines have launched a bidding war over the first photograph of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s twins – and are willing to pay up to $15 million for the exclusive snaps.

The Tomb Raider star and longtime partner Pitt are currently expecting twins – their fifth and sixth children.

And according to TMZ.com, magazines People and Ok! are desperate to land the first exclusive shot of the twins.

A spokesman for People says, “We’d love to see the photos in People. We wish the family well”.

Meanwhile, Ok!’s representative admits the publication would be “foolish” not to bid for the photos.

In 2006, the couple offered the first pictures of daughter Shiloh through distributor Getty Images. People magazine paid more than $4.1 million for the North American rights, while British magazine Hello! obtained the international rights for $3.5 million. All profits were donated to an undisclosed charity by Jolie and Pitt.
