Ariel Winter’s Mother Claims Actress Threatened to Make Her Pay
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Ariel Winter's mother Chrystal Workman claims she was physically attacked and threatened by the young actress.
The mother of the 14-year-old Modern Family star - who is involved in a bitter guardianship battle after Ariel was removed from her custody last month and temporarily placed in her other daughter Shanelle Workman's care - hit back in court today and insisted Ariel threatened to make her pay and made up accusations of abuse after she banned her from dating her then boyfriend Cameron Palatas (18), according to gossip website TMZ.com.
"She is an actress so I'm sure she can cry at the drop of a hat," Chrystal reportedly said to the judge.
But lawyers for Ariel's older sister Shanelle told the Los Angeles court, "The child [Ariel] is, apparently, struck repeatedly, slapped, hit, pushed, not so as to leave marks. Mother is smart enough not to do that." The legal team also confirmed earlier reports that Chrystal was "a terror on the set of Modern Family and that the producer and others there have expressed grave concern." They also claimed Chrystal "sexualizes the child," which led him to produce a photograph of Ariel "dressed up to show off her breasts and otherwise."

Justin Bieber Talks About Split

What happened to Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez?
The popstar couple - who had been dating since February 2011 - reportedly split last week, and the general public is just dying to know what went wrong. Although the "Baby" singer was open to talking about the break-up, he wasn't quite clear about his thoughts: "I don't know what to say. I don't know what's going on in my life. To even assess that it doesn't make sense 'cause I have not made any comment."
Although plenty of Bieber's female fans are happy with the news that the couple are no longer together (she faced hate mail and harrassment from many of them for the duration of their relationship), he neither confirmed nor denied the news.
Rumors of Bieber's infidelity arose when he was spotted with Victoria's Secret model Barbara Palvin, taking her to see The Lion King on Broadway.

Lindsay Lohan Settles Lawsuit

Lindsay Lohan has resolved her lawsuit with a limo company. The Liz & Dick star has settled out of court with Elite Transportation Limo and Security Services, who were suing her for failing to pay her $90,585.79 bill from three years ago.
The 26-year-old troubled starlet - who still has other ongoing legal troubles and believes that Los Angeles police have a "vendetta" against her - has reportedly paid the limo company back the entire amount she owed after using their luxury services from February to May 2009, according to gossip website TMZ.com. The company is said to charge a hefty $6,000 an hour for its services.
News of the settlement comes after Lindsay pulled out of a planned interview with Barbara Walters this week. She was due to appear on 20/20 to talk about her new TV movie about Elizabeth Taylor, but with recent allegations of lying to police about a car accident in June and public spats with her parents, Lindsay's PR team decided it was best to cancel the interview.

‘Modern Family’ Star’s Family Denies Abuse
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Child Stars, Legal Issues, Rumors,
Modern Family star Ariel Winter's brother claims that allegations of abuse against their mother are false.
The 14-year-old actress - who plays Alex Dunphy in the hit comedy series - has been removed from her mother Crystal "Chris" Workman's home by child protective services for the second time and placed in her older sister's care, but her brother Jimmy Workman insists there is no truth to the accusations of serious physical and emotional abuse.
"There is no truth to these allegations. The allegations made 20 years ago are not true and the ones today are not true. This is a mother who does everything for her kids. Chris misses Ariel and wants her to come home," he said.
Crystal also directly denied the accusations saying, "It's all untrue, it's all untrue. I have my doctor's letter that my daughter's never been abused."
A source revealed yesterday that Ariel's older sister Shanelle Gray was awarded temporary legal custody last month. The insider revealed that the girls also secured a restraining order against their mother, forcing her to stay 100 yards away from the young actress at all times.

Lindsay Lohan Could Face ‘Significant Jail Time’

Lindsay Lohan could face "significant jail time" after lying to the police about her car crash in June.
Although the Liz & Dick star previously told officials she wasn't driving her Porsche during the accident on the Pacific Coast Highway, but after several witnesses came forward to claim she was behind the wheel, police are now pushing for a period of incarceration for her as she is already on probation.
"Once Lindsay is formally charged with lying to cops, the Los Angeles City Attorney's office will ask for a formal probation violation hearing. At the conclusion of the probation hearing prosecutors will ask the judge to sentence Lindsay to significant time in jail, up to one year. Prosecutors and cops think there is more than enough evidence for the judge to find Lindsay in violation of probation and are hopeful that this time, she will face the maximum penalty for lying to cops. Remember, the burden is much lower for a probation violation, just the fact that Lindsay will be charged with a crime is enough for her probation to be revoked and sent to jail," a source said.

Jennie Garth Concerned About Amanda Bynes
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Television, Child Stars, Meltdowns, Features,
Jennie Garth has tried to reconnect with Amanda Bynes.
The 40-year-old actress - who recently realized she is not ready to date following her split from husband of 11 years Breaking Dawn: Part 2 actor Peter Facinelli - claims she is desperately concerned about her former What I Like About You co-star who is like a "little sister" to her, but has so far failed to reach her.
"I haven't talked to her. I've tried. She's like a little sister to me, so I would love to wrap my arms around her right now. But I haven't been able to reach her," the mother-of-three told The Jeff Probst Show.
Amanda, 26, has suffered a string of setbacks recently including being charged with driving on a suspended license and having her car impounded.
Jennie admitted that like Amanda she too thought her career was over after the end of their comedy series until she realized she loves being an actress: "I forgot that I actually like what I do. I thought that I was done as an actress [after the sitcom]. I really thought that I was retiring and I didn't want to do it anymore. And now I'm doing it again, and I really enjoy it."

Selena Gomez: I’d Have Two Kids by Now if I Stayed in Texas

Singer-actress Selena Gomez has offered up what she believes her life would be like if she hadn't become a huge star and opened up about growing up with Disney.
In this month's issue of Glamour, the Spring Breakers actress claimed that she would have probably become a teen mom had she remained in Texas: "I'm terrified of what I would have become if I'd stayed there. I'm sure I'd have two children by now."
But that's not to say that she was exempt from the semblance of a high school experience:
"I grew up in one of the biggest high schools in the world, and that’s the Disney Channel. Everybody was falling in love with each other or not liking each other, and it was exhausting…and I was the shy one in the corner. And now I’m so opinionated, and I don’t have time for the cattiness. I have good people around me, and I’m glad I’m at the place I’m in. I wish I was there back then."
The Glamour issue hits newsstands on Tuesday, November 6.

Amanda Bynes allegedly walked around a New York tanning salon completely naked.
The 26-year-old What I Like About You actress - who recently pleaded not guilty to two charges of driving on a suspended license in California - is said to have shocked customers by walking into the salon's reception area without any clothes on moments after being set up in a private room for a Mystic spray-tan session.
"She walked out of the room completely naked. She didn't seem to care that everyone saw her naked. She seemed totally out of it. She took her time walking back to the Mystic room, dragging her fingers along the wall and smiling at customers who passed her. There was definitely something wrong with her," a customer said.
Amanda - who claims to have retired from acting - has displayed erratic behavior in recent months, and has been dropped by her agent, publicist and entertainment lawyer after they found they had been unable to get in touch with her for four weeks.

Sam Lutfi Wants to Work with Lindsay Lohan

Britney Spears' former manager Sam Lutfi wants to work with Lindsay Lohan. Sam - who has been accused of manipulating Britney when he worked for her - reportedly wants to start a professional relationship with Lindsay but even though her publicist Steve Honig quit last week, she wants nothing to do with him.
"Sam has been desperate to get his hooks into Lindsay for a very, very long time. He reached out to her after Steve Honig quit last week but she hasn't returned his calls or text messages. Lindsay wants absolutely nothing to do with Sam. She doesn't trust him and believes he is closely aligned with her estranged father, Michael Lohan. Lindsay says there is no way in hell she would work with Sam. She thinks that Sam doesn't know anything about the entertainment business and knows of the hell that Britney went through when Lutfi was acting as her 'manager.' Lindsay's lawyers and agents would never work with Lutfi in any capacity -and quite frankly, the last thing Lindsay wants or needs in her life right now is Sam Lutfi," a source said.

Lindsay Lohan’s Father Seeking a Conservatorship

Lindsay Lohan's father is seeking a conservatorship for her.
Michael Lohan is convinced his daughter has resumed abusing drink and drugs and after trying to stage an intervention on Friday he is trying to go through the courts to get a conservator appointed to look after Lindsay.
Michael claims his daughter is hanging out with the wrong people, including her mother, Dina Lohan. He is not requesting he be made conservator - an appointed person who has legal control over the subject - as he doesn't want to be in control of Lindsay's finances, so people can accuse him of going after her money. According to website TMZ, Michael wants a judge to decide who to appoint conservator, but he says he will not accept Dina.
Michael has told his lawyer the first thing he plans once there is a conservatorship in place is to convince them to send Lindsay to rehab. He claims every time Lindsay has been to rehab "she went in dirty and didn't come out clean."
