Larry Birkhead Strikes Back At OK!

Friday, August 31st, 2007

293birkheadlarry071307.jpg

So here is the deal. First, OK! accuses Larry Birkhead of some shenanigans with Howard K. Stern. As a result, they pulled their 1.7 million deal for Danilynne’s first birthday party pictures.

OK! magazine had this to say.

It breaks my heart that OK! has to pull out of a shoot that would have chronicled the next great chapter of Dannielynn’s life. That sort of celebration is what the magazine enjoys most.

But first and foremost, we — and I — care dearly about the well-being of the young one, and my moral obligation lies with her. So, it’s unfortunate, but at the moment, my biggest fear is that Larry and Howard may have tricked us all.

Now, Larry is calling foul. He says that OK! is being vindictive because of a proposed cover deal with Us.

“I asked out of courtesy, and OK! magazine went through the roof,” Birkhead said, adding that the glossy was also irked by the invite to Dannielynn’s party turning up in InTouch. “They can’t stand it if one other magazine has one other little detail.”

One email from OK!, Birkhead claimed, warned he’d be the subject of “horrid” coverage if he went ahead with the Us story. In the end, Birkhead did the Us interview, and according to him, he got the “horrid” treatment.

Larry believes the allegations of Stern collusion came from reporter Rita Cosby who’s written a book on Anna Nicole.

Birkhead is planning on suing Cosby and OK!.

Wilson was transported to St. John’s hospital in Santa Monica , Calif. on Sunday, August 26, by ambulance. Sources tell the ENQUIRER and Star that he sliced his left wrists and took an indeterminate amount of pills.

He was discovered by a family member who summoned help.

Lindsay Lohan: My life has become completely unmanageable

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

Lindsay Lohan has issued the following statement to TMZ:

It is clear to me that my life has become completely unmanageable because I am addicted to alcohol and drugs.

Recently, I relapsed and did things for which I am ashamed. I broke the law, and today I took responsibility by pleading guilty to the charges in my case. No matter what I said when I was under the influence on the day I was arrested, I am not blaming anyone else for my conduct other than myself. I thank God I did not injure others. I easily could have.

I very much want to be healthy and gain control of my life and career and have asked for medical help in doing so. I am taking these steps to improve my life. Luckily, I am not alone in my daily struggle and I know that people like me have succeeded. Maybe with time it will become easier. I hope so.

This declaration is the first step of any 12 step program. Good for her.

Tuesday, August 21st, 2007

laxpartyposter.jpg

I know what you are thinking. Who would pay Britney Spears to promote anything? On the face of it the idea looks silly. BUT if you really think about it is indeed brilliant. Everyone is going to be there waiting in anticipation to see what train wreck Britney launches next. Even if she never shows up the place will be crowded until the wee hours with just the hope of Britneyness.

It’s going to be worth every dime.
