| Lindsay planning more charity work; to visit Guatemala next |
[Dec. 28th, 2009|01:28 am] |
Hollywood actress Lindsay Lohan is planning a trip to Guatemala for charity work after returning from a visit to India, said her mother Dina Lohan.
The actress flew to New Delhi earlier this month to shoot a BBC documentary about child poverty and human trafficking. The charity work “humbled and moved” former wild child Lohan so much that she is now working on taking her philanthropic efforts to Central America, with the help of TV titan Oprah Winfrey, according to WENN.
“Lindsay definitely wants to give more back. We are now planning a trip to help the children of Guatemala, which will be filmed by Oprah’s (TV) network,” said Dina.

GRAHAM WANTS TO STRIP PREGNANT IN THE HANGOVER SEQUEL
HEATHER GRAHAM can't wait for a sequel to hit movie THE HANGOVER - because she wants to play a pregnant stripper.
The Boogie Nights star has yet to see a script for a much-anticipated follow up but she's already pitching ideas to writer/director Todd Phillips for her character, Jade.
She says, "I think Stu should get her pregnant, and that she should do a pregnant strip dance. I know it sounds so wrong, but it sounds so right."
Failing that, Graham tells Eonline.com she'd like to see a bachelorette party theme for the sequel: "That'd be really cool. Seriously, I wish. We need to get someone to write that script."

I'd give a week's pay to see this. I love her so. |

| Paul Oakenfold on Brittany's Great Musical Potential |
[Dec. 27th, 2009|10:41 pm] |
Until Brittany Murphy lent her voice to the penguin Gloria in the 2006 animated hit Happy Feet, the public had gotten only a taste of the chanteuse within the actress on a No. 1 dance club track called "Faster Kill Pussycat," written and produced by Grammy-nominated British trance artist Paul Oakenfold.
"Brittany trained as a singer before she did as an actress," Oakenfold tells PEOPLE. "She was a great actress but she had great vocal potential."
At first, Murphy wasn't so sure she wanted to be attached to Oakenfold's song. She told PEOPLE in 2006, "I've been singing my whole life and [recording] a lot of anonymous vocals. And this was another anonymous vocal, 20 minutes behind the booth in the recording studio two years ago. Then Paul had asked me if I'd put my name on it. The song is so incredible, I said 'Yes,' and we made a video."
But Oakenfold intended Murphy to be the centerpiece of his music video all along. "Her presence on the video is very powerful," he says. "She is very commanding visually and that's what we wanted. We wanted that energy and she did a great job."
As for putting her name on the song, Oakenfold recalls, "I said to her, 'Why hide behind something? You have a really great vocal. People are going to be shocked and pleasantly happy with what they're going to hear. You are not one of these actresses who are trying to sing and not doing a good job of it.'"
And he should know.
"I demoed three other girls on that song," Oakenfold says, "and some of the girls were pretty big singers – and Brittany blew them away."
In recent years, Murphy had been in the process of recording her own album. "She would have done well," Oakenfold says. "She wanted to try this with me, this smoky blues sound with electronic rhythms. She wanted to sound more traditional originally but I told her we should go more edgy. She was really excited by that and it's just a shame it never got as far as people thought it could. It's just a shame that the world is not going to hear more songs of Brittany Murphy."

| Rihanna told to cover up for Abu Dhabi gig |
[Dec. 27th, 2009|10:35 pm] |
When it comes to provocative stage routines, there's none raunchier than Rihanna's.
Except for this New Years Eve when the pop beauty could be performing in a sensible woollen sweater and a comfortable pair of jeans.
The star has been running around in next to nothing in Barbados all Christmas and is due to perform in sweltering Abu Dhabi on New Years Eve.
But we can reveal she has been told to dress conservatively for her gig at the Emirates Palace. And, as she's said to be making $500,000 for her performance, she's likely to do exactly what she's told. which means the white slashed latex body suit she wore at the American Music Awards [not to mention her collection of eye-popping bras] will be mothballed.
Her team are now said to be working frantically on new outfits which are respectful of local traditions.
A source tells us: "Rihanna is tearing her hair out over what to do; she wanted to put on her most eccentric and provocative show yet. She knows that she'll have to compromise her style to fit in with local traditions but a huge part of her show is her sexy stage gear."
The dress code in Abu Dhabi does not encourage excessively revealing outfits -- but it's no secret Riri is the if you've got it, flaunt it type of girl. Organizers are getting hot under the collar about possible wardrobe choices but they trust it will be handled tastefully.
The star has had an eventful year: she was assaulted by her ex Chris Brown in February before bouncing back with her Rated R album, so she'd be forgiven for enjoying a few drinks to see in 2010. But it seems there could even be a problem with that.
We're told: "Her people are trying to iron out all of the details for the rider which is proving to be somewhat problematic."
Apparently Rihanna always likes to have some bottles of vodka in her hotel room, but she may need to obtain a license if she is to store the alcohol in her dressing room during the gig. She would have loved to have a party with her team straight after the show and pop some champagne, too.
Oh well, she can always cheer herself up by counting all the money she's just earned.

Meanwhile, SJP recently chatted about how thrilled she was to star alongside Hugh Grant in her recently released movie, “Did You Hear About the Morgans?”.
She tells: “With this movie, I was basically shoved up inside his jacket pocket. I just loved it. I love him. He is very, very good at what he does. I paid to see him in ‘Four Weddings And A Funeral’ again and again! I wanted to be in a romantic comedy opposite him for years.”

[Dec. 27th, 2009|07:13 pm] |
Shia LaBeouf arrives at LAX airport in Los Angeles on Saturday (December 26).
A few weeks ago, the 23-year-old actor gave his British girlfriend Carey Mulligan a tour of all of his favorite spots near his Sherman Oaks house. The couple traveled by bus and were even spotted smooching at a local bus stop. People reports the couple grabbed lunch at Mexican restaurant Baja Fresh, caught a movie at the Arclight and picked up a “make your own volcano kit” at Borders. “They are a very sweet couple,” the eyewitness said. “They browsed several books and would not let go of each other’s hands.”
