Lindsay Lohan has lined up a new gig - as a Playboy girl

Lindsay Lohan may soon grace the pages of Playboy, if reports out Monday and Tuesday are on target.

Now, nobody's confirming whether the actress who once said she wouldn't do a  scene had changed her mind on the naked-for-my-art front, but she was in fact spotted heading into a Beverly Hills mansion for a photo shoot her mom later said "went well."

If the Playboy deal is real, Lohan should soon have a few more bucks to put toward the court-ordered counseling her lawyer said the actress couldn't afford — like, more than 750,000 bucks but less than a million of 'em, according to TMZ.

Lohan's current rep, Steve Honig, had a "no comment" for the Ministry, after telling E! News he could "neither confirm or deny at this time" what his client was up to. The actress went to a Beverly Hills mansion Monday for what a source told E! was the first day of a two-day, top-secret, non-nude spread for the January issue of the mag.

"The photo shoot went well," mom Dina Lohan said Tuesday to X17 Online, which had pictures of Lilo arriving at the mansion, allegedly with younger sis Ali in tow.

Last week, attorney Shawn Chapman Holley told Judge Stephanie Sautner that Lohan's problems completing probation as ordered stemmed in part from the reality that job opportunities for the actress and model, who supports her family, were primarily overseas. And Angelenos do go to all lengths to shorten their commutes, right?

The men's magazine previously pursued its dream of a nude Lohan in 2009, offering a million bucks and getting a "not considering it at this time" in return, a former spokeswoman told Gossip Cop that September.

Her "Machete" character's topless scenes in 2010 reportedly were the work of a nipple-baring body double.

"I'm not going to do a nude scene," Lohan told "Access Hollywood" in 2005. "Then there's no mystery for my private life." In the years that would follow, various of her body parts would be caught flashing and slipping by paparazzi cameras, but while promoting "Herbie: Fully Loaded," she said, "I think there's other things you can do to show people you have talent."

Sylvester Stallone Sued for for Copyright Infringement over 'The Expendables' Script

Sylvester Stallone's recent film "The Expendables" was a huge hit at the box office when it was released in August 2010. During its box office run the film earned over $103 million domestically and $247 million worldwide. However, on Tuesday, a writer in New York filed a lawsuit claiming that Stallone and the movie's co-writer, David Callaham, stole the idea for "The Expendables" from a screenplay he wrote 2006.

Marcus Webb filed his lawsuit in Manhattan federal court on Tuesday, October 25, reports Reuters. The suit states that Webb wrote a screenplay called "The Cordoba Caper." The suit also claims "The Expendables" is similar and "some places identical" to his film.

Webb reportedly registered "The Cordoba Caper" with the U.S. Copyright office in June 2006 and is now suing for unspecified damages for copyright infringement. He is also suing to stop the upcoming sequel by Stallone, Callaham, Lions Gate Entertainment Corporation and other production companies involved with the film, in order to prevent any more infringement on his copyright.

Stallone and other named in the lawsuit have not commented on the report.

"There can be no dispute that Stallone and/or Callaham had access to and copied protectable elements of the screenplay," the lawsuit said. The script was made available by Webb for the movie industry between 2006 and 2009, according to Reuters. Webb also claims he was deprived of potential earnings from the screenplay and film.

"'The Cordoba Caper' tells the story of a team of elite, highly-trained mercenaries hired to defeat General Garza, a rogue army general of a small Latin American country," the lawsuit stated.

"The Expendables is about a group of mercenaries who come for a mission to overthrow a dictator in Latin America. The film featured appearances by action stars like Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jet Li and Jason Statham. The film's sequel "The Expendables 2" is set for release on August 17, 2012.

Stallone recently lent his voice to the Joe the Lion character in the live-action film "The Zookeeper" with Kevin James and has an upcoming movie called "Bullet to the Head" with Christian

Slater due out on April 13, 2012. The actor is also set to launch a fashion line inspired by "Rocky" and "Rambo" in 2012

UPDATE

Reuters reports that Webb shopped his screenplay around to several studios between 2006 and 2009, and that the screenplay was “widely available” to potential buyers in the movie industry.

Do you think Stallone saw Webb’s screenplay?

The lawsuit reads:


“There can be no dispute that Stallone and/or Callaham had access to and copied protectable elements of the screenplay.”

Webb cites several examples where the two scripts are similar in his lawsuit, including the opening scene which involves “a hostage rescue at sea, off a foreign coast, which has nothing to do with the main plot.” The main villain in both movies, according Reuters, is General Garza, “a military dictator with a notorious human rights record.”

“The Expendables,” which was produced by Millennium and Nu Image and distributed by Lions Gate, was released worldwide on August 13, 2010. The movie featured an all-star action cast, including Jet Li, Jason Statham, and Dolph Lundgren, as well as a cameo from Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Webb says that he is owed earnings from “The Expendables,” which made $274.5 million worldwide.

Do you think Stallone stole the plot for “The Expendables” from Marcus Webb?

Willow Smith's out to prove she's no one-hit wonder and Nicki Minaj for her latest single!

Willow Smith and Nicki Minaj Light a 'Fireball'

Willow Smith's out to prove she's no one-hit wonder and has enlisted the help of Nicki Minaj for her latest single!

The single, dubbed Fireball, is a drum-heavy party track that showcases the 10-year-old's lyrical talent alongside one of the hottest female rappers right now. Whether she writes her own stuff or not is to be debated (ghostwriter Minaj?), with lines like "Since I landed here, I gon’ phone up Obama... Shook the world up, now I caused a little drama," coupled with the fact that she is Will Smith's daughter, anything's possible. As always, Minaj does her thing with her lyrics in what could be considered a big sister-little sister type of pairing. Good to see the women support each other!

Fireball is featured on Willow's upcoming debut album, which will be released under Jay Z's Roc Nation imprint. Check out the hot track!

Rapper artist Nicki Minaj uses her body and beauty onstage

Rapper Nicki Minaj was transformed into into an 18th-century courtesan for W’s sixth annual Art Issue, Photographer/artist Francesco Vezzoli, whose work consistently taps into fashion and celebrity culture, refashioned Minaj into the Marquise de Montespan and some of her contemporaries. And of course, Minaj is clad in all manner of elaborate contemporary designer haute couture, (Vera Wang and Dior) with David Yurman jewelry.

Vezzoli has produced a trailer for a mock remake of Caligula, appropriately cast with Courtney Love, made a fake-fragrance commercial starring Natalie Portman and Michelle Williams. He transformed Eva Mendes into ­Bernini’s painting "The Ecstasy of Saint Teresa" for the 2011 Venice Biennale and, for MOCA’s 2009 30th-anniversary gala, he reimagined Lady Gaga as a latter-day Ballets Russes dancer.

Vezzoli, explains his Minja concept:

"In her performances, Minaj makes very explicit and ­challenging use of her beauty and her body, so I thought of comparing her to some of the most famous courtesans in history: the Marquise de ­Montespan, Comtesse du Barry, Madame de Pompadour, and ­Madame Rimsky-­Korsakov. My idea was to reproduce four iconic portraits of some of the most fascinating females of the past in a series starring an American pop-culture role model. We tried to re-create those original portraits using similar furniture, props, and clothing, à la Visconti. Luckily enough, the result came out as surreal as it could be, just as I wished."

Just to set the record straight, according to History Undressed, courtesans were actually glorified prostitutes, far more educated and refined than street walkers or call girls, but nevertheless paid sexual partners and escorts for the royal, noble and wealthy men of society.

The salons of famous well-educated courtesans were hot spots, always attended by renowned artists, poets, members of local authority and foreign noblemen. Many salons would regularly feature conversations about literature, poetry and arts as well as fine wines and foods. Visitors of such salons left mentions of courtesans in their literature works. And courtesans' portraits were also painted by famous artists that these that inspired W's photo spread.

Brad Pitt thinks his marriage to Jennifer Aniston was fake!

Brad Pitt Delivers Jennifer Aniston A Final Blow

Brad Pitt thinks his marriage to Jennifer Aniston was fake, it was “something that it wasn’t”.

The ‘Money ball’ actor – who was married to former ‘Friends’ star Jennifer from 2000 to 2005 – thinks his life before his relationship with Angelina Jolie started to feel “pathetic” because he spent a lot of time smoking marijuana and “hiding”.

 

 

He said: “I spent the ’90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the full celebrity cacophony. I started to get sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint, hiding out. It started feeling pathetic. It became very clear to me that I was intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn’t living an interesting life myself. I think that my marriage [to Jennifer Aniston] had something to do with it. Trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn’t.”

[editors note: another confirmation that he smokes pot] 

Did Jennifer smoke pot with you, Brad?

There’s more! He’s living a much happier life with Angelina and their six children – Maddox, 10, Pax, seven, Zahara, six, Shiloh, five, and three-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

He said: “One of the greatest, smartest things I ever did was give my kids Angie as their mom. She is such a great mom. Oh man, I’m so happy to have her.”

Ouch… that’s gonna leave a mark.

Steve Jobs deserved his wealth ! Wall Street movement inconsistent?

They protest corporate greed and income inequality. They've highlighted so often how the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans have so much political influence that their rallying cry, written on signboards, has become "We are the 99%."

But just as the 99% Wall Street protesters – or Occupy Wall Street movement – was gaining momentum and attention across the United States, some of its participants took time out to mourn the passing of one of the wealthiest corporate icons of them all: Steve Jobs, worth an estimated $7 billion, former CEO of Apple, the world's No. 2 most valuable corporation.

“Sad to announce the death of Steve Jobs,” a Twitter account called @OPWallStreet tweeted Wednesday night, not long after Mr. Jobs's death was announced. "Much of Occupy Wall Street and the tech community respect you & will miss you.”

“#OccupyWallStreet. RIP to a creative genius who helped make ALL these movements possible,” tweeted @alphaleah.

So what gives? Do Jobs and Apple not count as part of America's corporate elite?

“Steve Jobs and Apple are complicated," says R. Luke Dubois, a professor of integrated digital media at the Polytechnic Institute of New York University in New York. "On one side, people are railing against corporate greed, and they’re doing it on iPads from a company that trades at $400 per share.... But the politics of Steve Jobs has always been to give the customer more tools to do what they want: to edit their own movies, make their own projects. And people in the developer community can write their own applications for the iPhone.”

Indeed, the quick spread and loose organizational structure of the “Occupy” movement (in more than 500 cities worldwide and counting) wouldn’t be possible without the products that Jobs made an integral part of everyday life.

“Apple’s technology in terms of being open and sharable was very well-timed in terms of social media, like Facebook and Twitter,” says Karen Sobel-Logeski, a professor of technology and society at Stonybrook University in Stonybrook, N.Y.

“Apple revolutionized the idea that your computing practice is constantly networked,” Dr. DuBois says. “If you have a smartphone, you can communicate with a lot more people with more ease, and that idea that the computer is this thing you can carry around with you in your everyday life is really core to that movement.... Apple has been super successful with allowing people to do that."

Some detractors of the movement highlighted the irony.

“LOL at "Occupy Wall Street" protesters who tweet 'RIP Steve Jobs' from their smartphones,” tweeted @Kasloco, echoing the sentiments of many.

Some supporters complained that Jobs's passing was stealing attention away from their own protests.

But, by and large, people didn’t see full-hearted support of Occupy Wall Street and the mourning of the billionaire head of a giant corporation as mutually exclusive, perhaps because of his public image.

“Jobs was such a beloved person in comparison with someone like Bill Gates because his passion for people, and having fun, and making lives better always came through in his products and message. That’s rare among billionaires, says Dr. Sobel-Logeski.

“His personal narrative suggests he would be very sympathetic to this sort of thing: college dropout, really influnced by '60s counterculture,” adds DuBois “Also, the Occupy Wall Street generation are young enough that they haven’t really been without him. He’s this weird, omnipresent, benevolent figure. It’s like losing the pope or something.”



Activists stand in place to form a " 99%," part of Occupy DC activities at Freedom Plaza in Washington, Oct. 6, 2011. Some 99% Wall Street protesters mourned Steve Jobs, even though he had headed up a multibillion-dollar corporation.
