Lindsay’s Just Powdering Her Feet

Doesn’t Lindsay Lohan know that you should never ever hide the 8-ball in your shoe?! I thought White Oprah taught her everything! Worst mom of all-time. First of all, I doubt she wants to get a case of Athlete’s Foot in her nose since you know her hooves got the itch. Second of all, one wrong step and the entire party goes all over the damn ground (as seen above). Hide the stash up your b-hole like a normal person.

But seriously, it’s probably just a little foot powder for stank, and like with everything she went a little overboard. The best part is that Lindsay doesn’t seem to realize that her feet look like Pete Doherty just sneezed on them. Or maybe she did it on purpose hoping that the cokefeet trend will catch on. These shoes were made for snortin’.

Lindsanity Denied Entrance To Victoria’s Secret Party!!

Awwww!

Nobody wants to deal with her Lindsanity anymore!

The LOLhan showed up to the Victoria’s Secret party Thursday night at the Trousdale in El Lay, and found herself DENIED entrance.

A source says:

“As soon as she strolled up to the door, the rope was quickly pulled in front of her. She tried to pass the big bodyguard but he blocked her way. The security guys weren’t having it and escorted her to the exit.”

LOLZ!

Of course, Orange Oprah another source claims she wasn’t purposely denied admittance:

“Lindsay wasn’t banned from the guest list. I’m sure that whatever happened was just a misunderstanding.”

Don’t worry, Lindsay!! You can come to OUR party on Saturday – we’ll let you in!!

It’s our birthday wish!!

Tyra Banks is tired

Tyra Banks looked washed out, tired and pimply without her war paint and weaves on as she made her way to lunch with a friend at a NYC restaurant and we can only guess it’s because she spent the entire night making love to herself and practicing her “smizing” and “fierceness” in front of the mirror in between the breaks. Should we tell her now that that’s not what Oprah does every night to prep herself for her show?

Susan Boyle to belt one out for Oprah

On the heels of the success of her # 1 album I Dreamed a Dream, Susan Boyle is gearing up for another big year in 2010. The songstress will make her first appearance of the new year on The Oprah Winfrey Show on Jan. 19 where she will belt out her new single “Who I Was Born To Be.”

SuBo was pegged as one of OK!’s breakout stars of 2009, and she will discuss with Oprah her whirlwind success and being coined “Boylemania” by Entertainment Weekly.

Susan is still shocked by the media frenzy that followed her performance on Britain’s Got Talent and finds the prais, “astounding and humbling.”

I Dreamed A Dream held the #1 spot on the Billboard 200 for six weeks in a row, broke numerous Soundscan records and has sold over 8 million copies worldwide.

“It was important that I could feel everything I was singing,” Susan says.

The album features 12 tracks with Susan singing signature songs such as “I Dreamed A Dream”, “Cry Me A River,” as well as covers of The Rolling Stones’ “Wild Horses,” Madonna’s “You’ll See,” The Monkees’ “Daydream Believer,” and “Who I Was Born To Be.”

Lady Gaga on Friday’s “Oprah Winfrey Show”

In an appearance as varied as one of her song medleys, on Friday’s (January 15) “Oprah Winfrey Show,” Lady Gaga performed, announced that she’ll be donating the proceeds from one of her forthcoming concerts to relief for Haiti, and indirectly addressed her show cancellations in the wake of her collapse from exhaustion after a show on Thursday.

Regarding Haiti, Gaga said that all proceeds from her January 24 concert in New York will go to relief organizations for the earthquake in the embattled country.

“Haiti’s still suffering,” she said. “And I was thinking earlier, because I was in New York during 9/11 and I always felt, the level of disaster isn’t in the neighborhood of what is happening in Haiti, but I just remember feeling nobody really understood. And I worry that young people don’t know enough about what’s going on there.

“And I will say today that on the 24th, the Monster Ball [show] in New York City, all of the money that I make in ticket sales and merchandise will go to Haiti. And on the 24th you can also go onto LadyGaga.com and any merchandise that you buy, the money will go to Haiti.” Reached for comment, Gaga’s label rep told MTV News the specifics of the contribution would be announced in the coming days. (Learn more about what you can do to help with earthquake-relief efforts in Haiti.)

Although the concerts she postponed or canceled on Friday due to exhaustion didn’t come up directly in conversation, Gaga did admit, “I always have very trying weeks in terms of my physical schedule.”

For Gaga’s performance, she stepped onto the stage with a ball and chain and spiky getup — complete with a spiked hairstyle — that was part dress, part pantsuit and busted out a medley that started off with “Monster” before going into her hit “Bad Romance,” complete with several dancers. She later took the ball and chain, jumped on a mock taxi and attempted to break through its windshield. (Oprah was shown pumping her fist in the crowd during the performance.) She then slowed it down by completing the set at her piano singing “Speechless.”

Also appearing on the show was “Avatar” director James Cameron, and Gaga revealed that she had always wanted to paint herself blue, like the Na’vi in the film. “It’s actually funny about James Cameron, because I’ve been talking about how I want to paint myself blue for a performance for the longest time,” she explained. “I’ve been preparing to do it and then ‘Avatar’ came out.”

In the interview with Winfrey, the singer addressed her long-simmering stardom aspirations. “I don’t like that, actually. It feels so weird when people call me ‘lady,’ ” she said about her stage name, adding, “I wake up in the morning and I get on my computer and I have files and reference boards and I call the Haus of Gaga all day and argue with them. For me it’s all about being provocative. It’s not just about getting attention, but about really saying something that affects people.

“The hardest part about my job is that I’m bossy, really. This is my only opportunity to live my dream.”

Gaga also gave Winfrey’s cameras a peek at the inner workings of her Monster Ball Tour, showing her wardrobe closet and her office. She added that before her team hits the stage they have a very specific pre-show ritual. “We always at the end of the prayer say ‘Joanne’ altogether because that was my father’s sister, who died very young, and I believe she’s onstage every night.”

Scientology Employees Forced To Watch Tom Cruise Videos

Yikes! That sounds like our personal hell!

Marc Headley left Scientology after being involved for 15 years and is publishing a tell-all book called Blown for Good about the bizarre religion and he talks about Tom Cruise‘s supreme influence on its members.

Those working at the Scientology compound in Gilman Hot Springs, California are not allowed to watch television or read newspapers, but apparently they were gathered at different times to view clips of Scientology poster-child Tom Cruise!

Headley explains the strange ritual:

“Everyone there thought Tom Cruise was just brilliant. Absolutely all the employees looked up to him. They think he is an exhilaration, which is very high up on what they call the ‘tone scale’. People who work within the organization were not given access to newspapers or television shows. The only thing we knew was what we were told or shown.

“At the International Headquarters they would record any appearances on TV shows or even mentions of Tom Cruise, or little stories they heard about him. Then they would re edit them and cut them together into a five or ten minute video of all the snippets of him on TV. But it was never the full interview or story.

“For example the actual footage might have said; ‘Scientologist Tom Cruise, the biggest movie star in the world, acts like a crazy person on Oprah.’ But what we saw was ‘Tom Cruise, the biggest movie star in the world.’ Then it would cut to the next thing.“

That sounds so shady!

After Headley left the compound it was then he saw what the world was really saying about Tom Cruise and Scientology in general and he began to question the religion and their “propaganda:”

“I just knew he was a superstar who talked about Scientology everywhere he went and encouraged people to join. I thought everyone was embracing Scientology and that millions of people were joining because of him. But somehow just before I got out I happened to see a few episodes of Conan O’Brien and he was making fun of Tom Cruise and the church.

I had only been shown the good. I had never been exposed to anything else. But it got me thinking that if jokes are being made and people are laughing at them then not everyone thinks Scientology is so great. They don’t think Tom Cruise is awesome, they think he is a freak show.“

Well can you blame us? With the Oprah couch incident, the highly-publicized battle with Brooke Shields and the famous sound bite of “you’re glib!” to Matt Lauer?!

Headley also talks about what it entails to leave Scientology, using Tom Cruise’s family as an example including ex-wife Nicole Kidman:

“If you want to leave Scientology and publicly announce it, then you run a high risk of being branded a suppressant person. You will not be able to speak to your mother or your children or you family members again if they are still part of Scientology. If you leave and you say, ‘I don’t want to do this and I don’t want to be here then you are punished.’ You are threatened with physical and physiological harm…

“Nicole did attempt Scientology but she walked away from it. But she has never spoken about that. There are a lot of people still today who are quote on quote, ‘still in Scientology’. They may not like what is happening in Scientology but they will play along for fear they would suffer the disconnection.

“If Connor or Isabella [Tom and Nicole's kids] said, ‘I don’t want to do anything in Scientology anymore’ and didn’t speak out or say its crazy then they would be fine.

“But as soon as they say ‘I don’t want to do it anymore and I don’t believe in it’ and they make that fact known publicly then they stand a strong chance of being branded a suppressant person. If that were to happen, then they are living with Nicole.”

That is effed up!

The more people speak out about their experiences in Scientology, the more creeped out we get!
