Lindsay Lohan As A Stripper, Now With Video

Molly — Fri, 25 May 2007 10:29:57 -0700

Remember all the Sheila Kelley S-Factor stripping work-out classes Lindsay so diligently attended last fall? Well here are the fruits of her labor: A clip of Linds playing a stripper in her upcoming movie, I Know Who Killed Me. It looks like the girl's got moves. What's a little inner thigh bruising for the sake of your craft, right? Check out the clip below. It's a little NSFW, and I do warn you that with sound on, it's pretty freaking creepy.

To check out more videos from the movie, check out the I Know Who Killed Me official site.

More Crazy Lindsay From Nylon

PopSugar — Thu, 26 Apr 2007 17:02:59 -0700

Lindsay's dress sure is cute. Too bad she killed the look with those shoes. We're waiting to see if she denies all the things that she said in her latest crazy interview with Nylon magazine, but so far - nothing. Meanwhile, you all got such a kick out of it we decided to bring you some more highlights. Here you go:

On the media speculation about her love life:
"Well, in the past it would suck...they would just name every older man...I mean I would be dead if I'd slept with that many people! But I know it's going to happen. But certain people..." A grin. "Certain people are true."
On what she expects from her "people":
"Loyalty. Don't f@#%ing lie to me. I can read right through people. And you can't lie to an actress, I mean that's just stupid!"
On her upcoming film I Know Who Killed Me:
"I don't think that there has been a role for an actress like this movie was for me in so long...At first I was like 'I can't do this, I'm getting my leg cut off. I don't want to look like that in scenes, I want to look decent!' But that was just just me being young and stupid. And I have my first sex scene in it, which I always said I wouldn't do...I wanted to this movie so people can see that I'm a f@#%ing actress and I've been doing it forever and it's about time people see that. It felt so good to really act."

With LL there's never a dull moment and somehow she always leaves us wanting more!

Lindsay Goes Back to her Roots

PopSugar — Wed, 07 Mar 2007 10:35:56 -0800

Could it be that LL is about to go back to her innocent ways? Lindsay was seen with a makeover showing off some gorgeous red locks. Maybe we can pretend she's that same girl from Freaky Friday. Word is she may go more blonde but we hope she doesn't. As for the old LL, well it wouldn't be the same if we didn't mention her diva-like ways. Apparently she is still difficult to work with. In her current film I Know Who Killed Me new diva rumors are brewing. Here's more:

Lohan kept crew members waiting for hours on the set of “I Know Who Killed Me” on Feb. 21, a source told In Touch Weekly.

“When she finally arrived, she said that she needed to take a nap,” the source told the mag.

But Lohan didn’t emerge from her trailer for five hours, and then threw up and immediately went home, says the insider, leaving those left behind to speculate as to what ailed her.

We hope returning to her roots will remind her how she is a talented actress that needs to stay home more at night to get rest so she can work hard on her new films. We'd love to finally be able to focus on her talent rather than her bad rap.

Lindsay Back in Touch With Her Father

PopSugar — Wed, 14 Feb 2007 15:35:06 -0800

Of all the difficult relationships in Lindsay's life, the one with her father is quite possibly the hardest, but things may finally be looking up. Soon after she checked into rehab, Michael Lohan wrote her a supportive (and public) letter from prison. "It was such a welcome surprise,” a friend told Life & Style. “Linds was certainly touched and a little choked up.” LL is "proceeding with caution" but is "thrilled" to be in touch with her father again. We understand why she would be a little wary, but it's great to hear that rehab is working out so well and that she may be able to mend things with her father after all.

Lindsay is Back to a Working Girl

PopSugar — Fri, 26 Jan 2007 09:51:50 -0800

Lindsay is reportedly enjoying her vacation at Wonderland and the way she does rehab, well who wouldn't love it. LL is taking hikes, lunching on Robertson and grocery shopping. Sounds so normal and yet I was under the assumption that rehab meant being more secluded to make sure you were staying clean. Now LL is all ready to get back to work on the set of I Know Who Killed Me. Apparently she will start filming again today. People reports:

"People were getting a bit antsy about what the status was, so it's pretty thrilling," says the source. "As soon as Lindsay was cleared, they started everything back up again."

The source added that Lohan was likely to resume a full workload, which a rep for the movie described earlier as 13-14 hours a day. "As far as I know, she'll be back on schedule and working a full day," said the source.

We're so glad that LL has decided to seek help. Let's just hope she sticks with it while back on the set and working those long hours! Lots more pics of LL with groceries and going for a little jog, so just read more

Strippers Say Lindsay Doesn't Cut It

PopSugar — Thu, 21 Dec 2006 11:11:13 -0800

Lindsay has been spending some time with strippers while learning how to pole dance for her latest role in I Know Who Killed Me. This week she sent out an email calling the ladies she was working with whores, yet saying she has a lot of respect for them. But evidently the strippers who have seen LL dance aren't too impressed by her moves. Page Six reports:

The strippers at Scores East Side were surprised to read on Page Six yesterday that Lindsay Lohan was sore from pole dancing to prepare for her topless role in "I Know Who Killed Me." They were amazed she even got the part. When Lohan worked the pole there one night with Kate Moss 11 months ago, "she was very awkward," recalls Kim (a 5-foot-10, 36C-24-35 brunette), "although she did look like she was having a good time." Angelica (blonde, 36DD-25-36) agreed that Lohan seemed klutzy, as did Maria (blonde, 34C-23-33), who opined, "I give her credit for getting up there."

You've gotta admit though that the strippers were a little nicer in their criticism of LL than she was in giving them props! Still, being terrible at stripping isn't necessarily a bad thing, right? For more pics just read more

Diane Kruger Likes Being One of the Boys

PopSugar — Wed, 12 Aug 2009 10:30:11 -0700

Diane Kruger was up early this morning in NYC for an appearance on Live With Regis and Kelly. She's dedicated to getting out there to promote Inglourious Basterds with premieres across the globe, though she also finds time to unwind by partying with Brad and Angelina. At a recent press junket, Diane gushed about her admiration for Brad and talked about how comfortable she was working with him - check out the video of her interview here. She also had lots to say about Quentin Tarantino and drinking with the cast in Berlin. Here's more:

On Inglourious's male-oriented cast : "It's fun being one of the boys. It's fun to play a character that is tough and gets down and dirty and not to be this precious little piece that sits in the corner and just stands by the action."
On filming the movie in Berlin: "It [was] nice to be able to go home, my family [was] two hours away. I love the German food! Every Friday on Quentin's sets, the crew drinks and everybody goes. There's a bar we would go to all the time called Tarantino's. The owner is Quentin's biggest fan, the whole place is filled with memorabilia. Of course, he's never met Quentin. One night Quentin walks in, Brad Pitt right behind him with the entire cast. The guy nearly had a heart attack. I mean, can you imagine?"
On what she's most grateful for: "That I'm still here. That I'm sitting here today. Who knew? Knock on wood. It's been a journey and finally things are turning around, I think."

To read what Diane had to say about auditioning for Tarantino and hear more about how she wants to guest star on Fringe just read more.

On auditioning for Tarantino: "The tough part is to get the job. He's one of the last directors in Hollywood who gets away with only hiring the actors he absolutely wants for a part - he would not have hired Brad Pitt if he wasn't Aldo Raine. It was hard for me to get the job, he had someone else in mind. He didn't believe I was German. It's like 'for god's sake, what's next?' He saw every actress in Germany, so you know you have to deliver in the room. Once I got hired, it was a walk in the park. I mean it was a very challenging part and there were hard days at the office. I haven't been allowed, in America at least, to play quite such a strong, tough, fierce woman. His dialogue is great, but it's not easy. You have to read it a few times. It's not your typical Hollywood shebang."
On her favorite TV shows: "Mad Men is my favorite show. I do like Fringe, of course. I'm a little biased, I wasn't going to bring that up."
On working with Josh: "He's pretty busy right now, so I don't think that for the next couple years there's going to be any projects between the two of us. I want to be one of the gooey monsters that gets killed on Fringe. It would be so fun."

Heath's Friends Weigh In on His Life One Year Later

PopSugar — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 10:30:18 -0800

It's hard to believe almost a year has gone by since Heath Ledger's tragic passing, but next Thursday will be the one-year anniversary of his death. He's already been honored with a few posthumous awards, including a Golden Globe, and with Oscar nominations less than a week away, the buzz around Heath's performance in The Dark Knight is as loud as ever. To continue honoring and celebrating his memory, Entertainment Weekly made Heath its cover story with quotes and highlights about his life from the people that worked closely with the actor and grew to know and love him over the years. Here are a few highlights from the touching article:

Gil Junger, director, 10 Things I Hate About You: "Heath came in to read, and he exuded a sexuality so uncommon for a man of that age. As soon as he left, I stood up and said, 'Ladies, I have never wanted to sleep with a man, but if I had to, that would be the man. Please hire him immediately.'"
Todd Black, producer, A Knight's Tale: "Heath was the pied piper. If you were sad, he took care of you. If you were happy, he made you happier just by dancing or talking or laughing. Fear didn't enter his psyche. He would say whatever was on his mind. If he didn't like you, you would know it, and if he liked you, you would know it."
Wes Bentley, friend and costar, The Four Feathers: "Heath's fun clouded its way through a room. It was infectious. If you were stuck in an elevator with him, you'd be entertained. He liked to go to Vegas dressed snazzy. He'd walk the streets of Vegas and never really have a plan, dressed up in a pink blazer and a tie. He liked to get a boat and travel to the Greek islands. Some people think he'd party too much and take drugs. That wasn't the case. It was young energy. He was high off life."
Terry Gilliam, director, The Brothers Grimm: "All of us who were close to Heath knew what was going on, and it was not the most pleasant experience. . . . He was obsessed with his daughter. She became the center of his thoughts. He would drag her up to my house in London. Here's Heath, Academy Award nominee, and he'd just grab his daughter, stick her in a backpack, hop on the Tube, and come up to the house. Nobody would have thought, There's Heath Ledger. He was just a guy with a kid."

To read a lot more quotes from costars and friends about Heath's life and tragic death, just read more.

Mel Gibson, costar, The Patriot: "We'd hook up from time to time and chat. He did ask me a couple of times for advice, but I just said, 'Hey, follow your own gut, dude. You're doing alright so far. Don't listen to me. I've often been known to be quite wrong about a lot of things.' But he was his own man. He was going to do what he was going to do. He was looking for a way to fulfill himself in his art and in who he was. He didn't have the cart before the horse."
Nicola Pecorini, friend and cinematographer, The Order and Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus: "Heath would sometimes ask for help to escape: 'Can you call me at 5:15 so I can pick up the phone and get off this interview?' It was very funny, because he was like a big kid - you know, 'Get me out of Science 101.' He went along for the ride, but at times it was a bit too much for him. He'd call me and say, 'Can I come play with your kid?' My son at the time was 10, and Heath would come and spend hours playing soldiers with him, just to get away from everything."
Catherine Hardwicke, director, The Lords of Dogtown: "During the awards and celebratory parties for Brokeback, he told me, 'I don't want to work. I want to take a year or two off where Michelle and I will move to Holland and ride bikes.' This dream took root in his mind: How can I get away? How can I get time to renew my soul? But the business doesn't want you to take that time. He was so desirable, everyone was offering him the most delicious things in the world on a daily basis."
Gary Oldman, costar, The Dark Knight: "I kind of raised my eyebrow at the casting and thought, Oh, I wonder how that will be. But any concerns that one may have had vanished when you got on the set with him. I did a couple of scenes with Heath in the first leg of the shoot in London. I called a friend and he said, 'How's Heath?' I said, 'He's breathtaking. He's going to be astounding.' I could tell just working for five minutes with him."
Pecorini: "He was so solid into keeping clean, it was quite stunning. I really think he died of a broken heart. I know it can sound very romantic, but it's very tragic. I think that's what killed him."
Steve Alexander, his CAA Agent: "We were making these incredible plans about what was next, career-wise. The day after he died, he was going to meet Steven Spielberg to explore the idea of playing Tom Hayden in a movie about the Chicago 7. This wasn't a guy who was even for a second thinking about checking out in any way, shape, or form. There's a moment in The Dark Knight when Heath's hanging upside down and he says to Batman, 'You and I are destined to do this forever.' It's a very sad moment. A sequel certainly would have happened. I cringe when I read that he was a tortured soul or a Method actor who couldn't get out of his own way because he'd played this dark character. It's just not true."
Oldman: "If Heath does get an Oscar nomination, I can just picture him up there, looking down and going, F---!"

Kiefer Talks Torture and Getting Turned on - 24 Is Back!

Molly — Tue, 13 Jan 2009 13:45:23 -0800

Kiefer Sutherland and the rest of the cast of 24 took the stage at this morning's Fox TCA panel, and while the questions kept coming back to whether or not the show condones torture, they managed to get a few good jokes in. After this week's four-hour season premiere and last month's TV movie 24: Redemption, are you on board with the new season? The show's producers and cast seem hopeful that a little break has made the show and Jack Bauer reinvigorated and ready to excite us. Here were some highlights from Kiefer at the press presentation:

On Jack this season: "We felt that Jack had great contempt for the Senate investigation because many of the things he was asked to do over the previous six seasons were ordered by the government (president). He is certainly questioning many of the things he has been asked to do, either ordered or on his own. He is wrestling with his own history and whether or not he is the kind of person who should have been asked to do these sorts of things. This inner struggle is something he carries for all 24 episodes."
On torture: "The use of torture was a dramatic device used to show urgency, not meant to validate this kind of behavior for the real world . . . In reality less than 10 percent of information they get from situations like this are helpful, but it is a television show and we are driving a plot forward and we use it for dramatic effect. But it does raise question of right and wrong . . . From my perspective it has always been literally a dramatic device to show you the urgency of a situation. There was just no alternative. One of the most moving scenes for me was killing my boss - we’re not condoning that, it was just part of the show. It’s as simple as that."
On keeping in shape: “Try to work out as much as you can in the off-season because it's tricky to maintain in the on-season. You do what you can with the time you’ve got like everyone. I run, and lucky for me during the day when I have to go to work, I run a lot there too. On an emotional level, fear and panic is my workout through the entire season . . .This has been an unbelievable gift . . . There is no specific regimen I have because our schedule changes so much."
On his 24 romance with the new FBI agent, played by Annie Wersching: "Given the situation I guess romances do develop over 24 hours. I think born of the respect [they have for each other] there is a tension that develops. Watching Annie do her first fight sequence I went, 'You know, that kinda turned me on too,' so it wasn't hard."

To see what else Kiefer had to say about getting recognized and shooting in Africa, just read more.

On the show as a phenomenon: "My name is not Kiefer anymore, it's Jack, and people talk to me like that . . . this character had these unbelievable characteristics but is really human. Nothing in 24 is black and white, it lives in a gray area and people were receptive at that time to accept something like that. It’s something that I am continually trying to figure out."
On the show being realistic: "In regards to the not sleeping, we’ve shot 24 for 17-18 hours and can imagine staying up for 24, but in season one he does fall asleep. There are aspects and times when we can play with that, but I haven’t been that focused on it the past few years. One time I walked into a restroom, but they cut it out. It’s not for lack of trying."
On shooting in Africa: "I went down to South Africa with a lot of prejudgments, I was very strongly against apartheid, I was aware that even with new government an unbelievable portion of the population is living in poverty and that population is [mostly] black . . . But when I started working with these nine children I was startled by how aware they are and how much joy they have. They took us into the townships with no running water or paved roads, and it made me take a serious look at myself and some of the things I might complain about . . . How unbelievably warm and affectionate these children were was really inspiring."

Tom Cruise's Power Is All in the Details

PopSugar — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 09:00:54 -0800

Tom Cruise looks like his Color of Money character with his powerful stare on the cover of Details magazine. John Mayer, Robert Downey Jr., and Nick Jonas all made this year's "Power List" with Tom at No. 7 spot as Leading Man. Tom talks about controversial Valkyrie and what he has in common with his character. Here's more:

On why he chose the film: "When you make people reconsider something that they're so certain of . . . I found it very compelling. It's the reason I'm doing it. When I was a kid, we'd play war, you know, and it was always 'Kill the Nazis.' I wanted to kill Hitler. [. . .] It's about doing the right thing, but also about finding out what the right thing is. You know what I mean? I do feel that this movie was the right thing to do . . . I love movies. Yeah, man, I love movies!"
On people criticizing the movie: "There's always someone telling you not to make a movie. When I did Born on the Fourth of July, they said, 'This is going to ruin your career. What are you doing?' Suicide? I've committed it. There were people who didn't want me to make Top Gun."
On whether he relates to his character: "Certain decisions at points in my life . . . I absolutely related. Stauffenberg went from saying, 'Someone should shoot that bastard' to realizing, I'm the only one who can do it. You can't really know until you're under that kind of pressure. I'm not saying this in some chest-pounding way, but I do feel I'd have that kind of courage."

Tom Cruise sounds passionate about his new movie, which opens up Dec. 26. It may not seem like cheery holiday fare, but it will be a typically action packed Tom Cruise film.
