Madonna’s lining up baseball star Alex Rodriguez, to be her new man



Madonna’s appearance at a Gucci charity dinner last Thursday drew gasps. She's looking younger and foxier than she has in years.

And it’s no surprise that the 50-year-old is making such an effort – her divorce went through the courts last Friday and she’s bagged a new toyboy.

Madonna’s lining up baseball star Alex Rodriguez, 33, to be her new man, but she’s had to tread carefully because she didn’t want to give Guy Ritchie’s lawyers any ammunition in their custody battle for their children Lourdes, 12, Rocco, eight, and 3-year-old David.

‘She’s told A-Rod he’ll have to be patient – this could take months, even a year,’ says our source.

‘Amazingly, A-Rod’s said he’ll wait as long as it takes. He’s deeply in love with her and even writes her poetry.’

In late October Madonna held a dinner party in her New York apartment where she introduced Alex, whose divorce from his wife Cynthia had been finalised the month before, to some of her Kabbalah chums.

She told them A-Rod had ‘the heart of a poet trapped inside an insanely gorgeous body’.

And a New York Yankees insider has shown Now a note thought to have been written by A-Rod for Madge. It reads: ‘I’m nuts about you stroking me, shooting chills up and down my spine. I’m lost when you’re not with me, but glad you’re mine, all mine!’

The Die Hard star will even bring his new love Emma Hemming, 28.

‘We will be having an unconventional Christmas, in that we’ll all be together,’ she tells the Daily Telegraph.

‘I think the key with any past is that you recognise and hold on to what you have gained and don’t attach yourself to what you’ve lost.’

Nicole Scherzinger has revealed she struggled with her image



Nicole Scherzinger has revealed she struggled with her image when she first joined the Pussycat Dolls.

The singer says she was uncomfortable with the band’s raunchy costumes and dance routines.

‘The image side of the Dolls was never seedy or sleazy but it was sexual,’ she says. ‘At first I wasn’t comfortable with that.

‘I’d always be worried about what other people were thinking about me. I was afraid of upsetting my family.'

Nicole, 30, says she was shy growing up because of her sheltered upbringing.

‘I grew up in a very strict, conservative family and my grandfather had his own church.

‘I suppose I grew up with lots of guilt. When I joined the Dolls it was a major turning point for me as all that guilt had to go,' she tells Live.

‘I had to reinvent myself and lose my insecurities. It took time for me to get my confidence.'

Nicole is currently dating Formula 1 World Champion Lewis Hamilton, 23.

Brad Pitt's Orleans privacy




Brad Pitt loves living in New Orleans because it is the only place his "family can have a sense of privacy".

The 44-year-old actor - who raises six children with partner Angelina Jolie - can escape the intense interest in his personal life when he goes home to the US city.

He said: "Living in New Orleans means we can all escape to a sense of normalcy, if there's such a thing.

"It's the only place where my family can have a sense of privacy. People there have other things to worry about than all this silliness."

Brad also revealed he decided to star in new movie 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' - in which he has to wear layers of make-up as well as prosthetic noses and scalps - because he was so keen to work with director David Fincher, who helmed his movies 'Se7en' and 'Fight Club', again.

Recalling the first time he watched a Fincher film, Brad said: "It was after this night of utter debauchery in Mexico in 1992, I watched 'Alien 3'.

"I remember walking out of the theatre thinking, 'OK, that was not what I expected. That wasn't a Hollywood ending'. It really stuck with me."

Tom Cruise Valkyrie Bravery




Tom Cruise says he is "courageous".

The 46-year-old actor has revealed he discovered his brave side while portraying World War II German officer Claus Von Stauffenberg in new movie 'Valkyrie'.

He said: "Stauffenberg went from saying, 'Someone should shoot that b*****d' to realising, '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, who has a two-year-old daughter Suri with wife Katie Holmes, also said he disregarded people's advice about starring in the film, which sees him don a Nazi uniform.

He added to Details magazine, in which he featured in their Annual Power

List: "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 even people who didn't want me to make 'Top Gun'. "

Sessilee Lopez Dating West




Kanye West is reportedly dating supermodel Sessilee Lopez.

The hip-hop star is said to have grown close to the catwalk beauty after personally selecting her to appear in the music video for his single 'Flashing Lights'.

A friend of Sessilee's is quoted by Britain's The Sun newspaper as saying: "Kanye was instantly smitten with Sessilee and it's not hard to see why. But it's more than just looks for Kanye, they get on really well and have a deep connection. "Recently, Kanye has invited Sessilee to several parties and the pair have also had a few quiet nights together."

However, it seems 31-year-old Kanye faces competition for Sessilee's affections.

The American beauty - who modelled lingerie at the Victoria's Secret fashion show in Miami earlier this month - is being romantically pursued by a host of handsome stars.

The source added: "Everyone wants a piece of Sessilee, she is one of the hottest models around. But she is very fond of Kanye though." Kanye has been officially single since splitting from fiancee Alexis Phifer in April.

The pair are believed to have separated because Kanye - who has just released new album '808s and Heartbreak' - was too obsessed with his career.

Alexis said at the time: "It's always sad when things like this end. But we are still friends. I wish him the best in his future and all of his endeavours. He's one of the most talented people I've ever met."

Bronx Mowgli Jungle Book Bond




Pete Wentz and wife Ashlee Simpson named their son Bronx Mowgli in tribute to 'The Jungle Book'.

The Fall Out Boy rocker - who welcomed his first child with Ashlee into the world last week - has revealed the couple are huge fans of Rudyard Kipling's novel, which tells the story of a young boy called Mowgli who grows up in the jungle and is raised by animals.

Pete said: "'The Jungle Book' was something that me and Ashlee bonded over. It's a cool name."

The 29-year-old musician also refused to reveal the inspiration behind the name Bronx.

He added to US radio host Ryan Seacrest: "We came up with the idea Bronx. We've been throwing ideas back and forth a while. People are stoked or angry whatever. And you're like, you know what - I don't think anyone really has the real story."

Pete felt like he was "having a heart attack" when 24-year-old Ashlee first went into labour, adding: "My heart started beating real fast. You see your wife is in all this pain. And I don't know what's happening right now. She took care of me and made sure I was OK and then went into labour. That's why she's a saint."

Posh: I will not leave you, David



Worried Victoria Beckham is moving to Milan

Victoria Beckham’s decided not to take any chances. Rather than worrying about what husband David, 33, will get up to while she’s not around, she’s decided to go with him to Italy after all.

Instead of visits, Victoria, 34, will now join David for his whole time on loan to AC Milan. ‘It’ll be for two months – after the season finishes here in LA, David will go to train in Milan,’ she revealed last week. 



But a close friend tells Now: ‘Victoria wants to make sure David’s a good boy, without a repeat of what went wrong when he lived in Spain.’

Insiders hope the decision will let us see a happier Posh as she’s looked tired since David made his deal with AC Milan.

Madonna's A-Rod holiday




Madonna is spending Thanksgiving with Alex Rodriguez.

The 50-year-old singer has angered Alex's former wife Cynthia after asking the baseball player to spend the US holiday with her, her three children and her manager in New York.

In an email, Cynthia reportedly wrote: "My 6ft, 3in, 220lbs soulless, soon-to-be ex-husband is abandoning his kids on Thanksgiving to be with Madonna. She called and he ran on her command back to New York City - gross!"

Alex is reportedly smitten with Madonna - whose decree nisi from husband Guy Ritchie was granted last week, beginning the official end to their marriage - and likes the fact she is in charge in their relationship.

A source said: "Alex likes a woman with a strong hand. He likes to be told what to do. He's a bit of a cipher."

Madonna and Guy must now wait six weeks and one day before their decree absolute is awarded, officially ending their marriage.

It has been claimed Guy will receive £2 million of the pop superstar's reported £300 million fortune and will share custody of the pair's sons Rocco and adopted tot David.

Paris recently told US radio host Ryan Seacrest she is "still in love" with Benji, despite splitting from him last week.

She said: "You know, I love him. He's such an amazing man and he's my best friend and he's been so great to me and so loyal. He's an incredible person. We'll always be very close. We'll see what happens in the future. I'm still in love with him.

"We're both working so much. There are all these reports saying that I dumped Benji. That's not true. This was a decision we made together as two adults.

"Right now we are just taking a break. We are really good friends. We're really close."

The Hills stars sneak off to elope in Mexico

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have tied the knot in a secret ceremony in Mexico.

The couple, who rose to fame on US show The Hills, jetted off to Cabo San Lucas to exchange vows.

And Heidi didn’t even tell her mum.

‘I told her it might be something else, and she said, “Well, if you ever plan on getting married just know that your stepdad is really upset that you want your father to walk you down the aisle.”

‘She was starting so much drama, it kind of pushed me toward wanting to get married without that. I don't know when I'll tell her.’

Heidi, 22, and Spencer, 25, got engaged last year after eight months together.

Mariah Carey's great-aunt gift



Mariah Carey has bought her great-aunt a house.

The 'Touch My Body' singer decided to purchase the San Miguel, Venezuela, property after her relative fell behind on her rental payments.

The 67-year-old woman owed $1,500 in unpaid rent and so asked Mariah for help.

When the 38-year-old singer heard of her aunt's plight, she immediately paid off the debt and also bought her the two-bedroom house.

It has previously been claimed Mariah - who wed Nick Cannon in an intimate ceremony earlier this year after a whirlwind romance - is very careful with her money.

The singer reportedly called off her second wedding to Nick after the pair struggled to get it funded by a magazine deal.

She was keen to host a lavish service for friends and family who missed her original Bahamas ceremony, but when it became apparent no publications were interested in paying for the bash she decided to ditch her plans.

A source said at the time: "The small wedding in the Bahamas was nice, but it was not Mariah's style. However, she wasn't too keen to pay for a more lavish celebration herself."

Sarah Jessica Parker's summer sequel




Sarah Jessica Parker says shooting on the 'Sex and the City: The Movie' sequel will start next summer.

The 43-year-old actress - who reprised her role as sex columnist Carrie Bradshaw in the big-screen version of the hit US TV show earlier this year - has revealed plans are already in motion for the follow-up.

She said: "I think shooting next summer is a realistic timetable. That's when we'd start shooting to be out in 2010. But that means we need to figure this out in the next couple of months."

Parker also revealed the main "hurdle" in getting the movie off the ground is finding a realistic premise for the plot.

She added: "We've had very general conversations about the idea. That's the big hurdle: the idea. The studio is very enthusiastic, which is lovely and seductive.

"We're at the place where the writer and director, Michael Patrick King, has a wealth of stories so now it's, 'We think we have this story and how do we put this together and are we completely sure that it's the right thing to do?' "

Parker - who is expected to be joined by co-stars Kim Cattrall, Cynthia Nixon and Kristin Davis in the sequel - said her character Carrie, who married her boyfriend in the last movie, is unlikely to have children in the next film.

She told MTV: "It doesn't seem as if that's going to be a choice she'll make. I don't know. Michael and I never talk about it. That doesn't mean that won't be part of the story. We just haven't figured it out. It feels a little bit manipulative to toss that into the mix, because she seems so pointed in a different direction."

Michelle Williams' Heath despair




Michelle Williams says things are "getting worse" following the death of her former fiance Heath Ledger in January.

The 28-year-old star - who has a three-year-old daughter Matilda from her relationship with Heath - is finding it increasingly harder to cope because she misses the actor so much.

She said: "I just wake up each day in a slightly different place - grief is like a moving river, so that's what I mean by 'it's always changing'. It's a strange thing to say because I'm at heart an optimistic person, but I would say in some ways it just gets worse.

"It's just that the more time that passes, the more you miss someone. In some ways it gets worse. That's what I would say."

The former 'Dawson's Creek' star also blasted paparazzi photographers for infringing on her and Matilda's privacy, adding she is considering giving up acting unless the situation improves.

She added to Newsweek magazine: "It burns a fire inside of me, the s**t that I've seen people do to get at me or my daughter. I won't forget it, and I won't support it. I don't want my daughter growing up feeling spied on or threatened.

"If it gets to the point where I can't situate my life in a way that they stay away more, then I'll drop a match on acting. I'll be sad. I like to act. It's saved my life over and over again. I have this thing that I'm in love with - acting - and now it has this baggage."

Heath died of an accidental drugs overdose in his New York apartment in January. He was 28 years old.

Christina Aguilera's career priority




Christina Aguilera claims she has never been "boy crazy".

The 'Keeps Gettin' Better' star insists being focused on her career from a young age meant she never went off the rails or let her emotions dictate her life.

Christina said: "I never went through that completely boy crazy phase because I was always so goal orientated in what I wanted as a performer and I think knowing that was my form of independence."

The 27-year-old also revealed her husband Jordan Bratman is her "rock" and says he is completely different from her father who was emotionally and physically abusive when she was growing up.

Christina, who has a 10-month-old son Max with Jordan, added to Britain's Observer magazine: "I don't think my motherhood has anything to do with my father, to be honest. I think that Jordan is such an incredible father and whether or not anything would ever happen to us, I know he would always be very much a part of Max's life.

"I can't say the same for my own father. If he had been different it might have been a different situation, but you reap what you sow."

Madonna's Rodriguez rage




Madonna is reportedly furious Alex Rodriguez dropped out of Kabbalah training because he was "bored".

The 50-year-old singer - whose divorce from Guy Ritchie was granted last week - has so far failed in her attempts to get her rumoured boyfriend Alex to share her interest in Kabbalah, a mystical off-shoot of Judaism.

A source at New York's Kabbalah Centre, where baseball star Alex had been attending private classes with spiritual leader Eitan Yardeni, said: "He hasn't even finished Kabbalah 1 (the introduction to the study of Kabbalah) and the majority of the time he has spent with Yardeni so far was for counselling, not study."


Madonna - whose bid to get Guy interested in the religion failed after he branded it "weird" and "hokum" - is now said to be considering whether to proceed in her relationship with Alex.


The source added to MSNBC.com: "This is certainly off-putting to Madonna. She did drag Guy into Kabbalah, she's doing the same now with Alex. But he's bored. He's basically a Kabbalah school dropout."

'Lonely' Leona Lewis



Leona Lewis says she gets "very lonely".

British singing sensation Leona - who reached number one in the UK and US singles charts with her second single 'Bleeding Love' - says despite her newfound celebrity status, she still feels isolated.

Leona, who won TV talent show 'The X Factor' in 2006, said: "It can be very lonely. Particularly in Los Angeles. When I was making my first album 'Spirit' it was really, really lonely because it was just me and an A and R [Artist and Repertoire] guy.

"Because of the time difference, you're in a different mindset when you're talking to people. I'd talk to people late at night Los Angeles time and they were just waking up so would be a bit tired."

Leona, 23, also revealed despite her continued global success and being lauded by stars worldwide, she is still convinced she will wake up one day to find the fairytale is over.

She added to Britain's Daily Mail newspaper: "I get scared of things not panning out the way I want them to. I wonder what I'd do if anything happened to my voice. I must be one of the most paranoid people I know. I'll miss nights out because I can't be talking over loud music. I get panicked in case something happens."

Leona's debut album 'Spirit' was reissued this week and includes bonus tracks.

'Fantastic' Catwoman Angelina Jolie




Angelina Jolie would make a "fantastic" Catwoman, says Aaron Eckhart.

The 'Dark Knight' actor was delighted to hear Angelina is being lined up to play the feline villain and thinks a new Batman movie would be a box office smash if she lands the starring role.

Aaron said: "I thought that was a fantastic idea. When I read that, I felt like all of our records that we made would be broken if she did Catwoman."

The actor added he was equally as excited about rumours Johnny Depp may take the part of the Riddler, but joked to Us Weekly magazine: "Every time I hear these guys mentioned, I feel worse about myself!"

Veteran actress Julie Newmar, who played Catwoman in the 'Batman' TV series from 1966 to 1968, has previously claimed Angelina would be the perfect choice to play the iconic role.

She said: "Angelina would own the part. I can understand how it would pique her interest. Catwoman is Batman's one true love.

"She is tremendously popular with women because she's both a heroine and a villainess."

Since the TV series, other actresses to take on the role of Catwoman include Michelle Pfeiffer in 1992 movie 'Batman Returns', while Halle Berry's portrayal of the villain in 2004 film 'Catwoman' was panned by critics worldwide

In the show Jen played a stalker.

But Alec, 50, refuses to comment on whether he thinks unstable women are better in bed.

‘That's assuming I've been with crazy women,’ he tells The Sun.

‘But I hear it's true. I hear from my friends it's true. I will say this on the record - I've never slept with a crazy man!’

Lindsay Lohan sobs in street after row with Samantha Ronson




Pair fall out after actress flirts with ex Calum Best

Lindsay Lohan and girlfriend Samantha Ronson are said to have had a huge fight last night – over her ex Calum Best. 

The couple were partying at London club Boujis when the 27-year-old playboy began dancing with his old flame. 

‘Lindsay was lapping up the attention, having a laugh – and a flirt,’ a source tells the Daily Mirror.

‘But Sam saw them and went ballistic. She marched over and started pushing and shoving the pair, demanding to know what the hell they were playing at.

‘They caused quite a commotion – everyone was staring. Then it erupted into a catfight, with Sam and Lindsay swearing and screaming like banshees.

'Calum looked mortified then things got nasty and he stepped in to separate them.’

Lindsay, 22, and Sam, 31, headed back to the Kensington Hotel, but the Mean Girls then spent almost an hour sat on the pavement outside in tears, smoking and talking on her mobile. 



Lindsay, who dated Calum briefly last year, eventually returned to her room at 6am.

The 'Hero' singer - who has been dating the tennis ace for more than six years - confessed the couple are currently living apart after an argument about the star's pet dogs.

Pamela Anderson's pot plea




Pamela Anderson wants marijuana to be legalised.

The former 'Baywatch' star has written an open letter to US President-elect Barack Obama, outlining ways to make the country better.

Pamela believes cultivating the illegal substance would "save children" and help the environment.

She wrote on her official blog: "I think we should legalise marijuana, tax and monitor - farm hemp etc. This would make our borders less corrupt and then I think eventually this will be a more secure option and save children in the long run - we should be able to farm hemp in America - it's just silly. It would create jobs and be good for the environment."


Pamela also controversially suggests anyone found guilty of molesting children or possessing child pornography, should be castrated for their crimes.

She continues: "Government must castrate every molester - potential molester - err on the safe side. If any child pornography is found in anyone's possession, or anyone creating such atrocities, or if any child is brave enough to come forward (at any young age to bring attention to a potential molester - listen) they need to be taken very seriously and see that justice is served.

"The abuse is way worse than any trial could be - our children need more protection and justice seen. It needs to be PREVENTED not just punished."

Britney Spears' Beckham lesson




Britney Spears wants to have soccer lessons from David Beckham.

The 26-year-old singer loves playing the physically exhausting sport and would like a few tips from Los Angeles Galaxy player David to help improve her skills.

She said: "David Beckham is my favourite soccer star, and he's a cutie! I'm not a very good soccer player, so I have to get someone in to help me - maybe he can!"


Britney - who can be seen in upcoming TV documentary 'Britney: For the Record' - also revealed she often gets annoyed at how much pressure she puts on herself to succeed.


She added to Britain's OK! magazine: "I'm such a perfectionist sometimes. It has its good points but then it has its bad points because you are never satisfied. I don't think you should ever be completely satisfied as they you are putting a limit on yourself.

"But you end up driving yourself crazy because you are never pleased with the finished product. You're always like, 'Well, if I had done it like this, then it probably would have been a lot better.'

Stylish wife Heidi Klum




Heidi Klum says marriage has made her more stylish.

The German supermodel revealed tying the knot with British singer Seal inspired her to make more of an effort with her fashion choices.

She said: "I've gotten more stylish since I've been with my husband. I was always making fun of him because he has so many leather coats, jackets and shoes. But he looks hot. I want to look good for him. So I kind of stepped it up a bit."

Heidi, who wed Seal in 2005, insists the spark is still alive in her marriage and sometimes can't believe she has such a handsome husband.


The 35-year-old beauty explained: "Sometimes I lie in bed and I'm like, 'Oh my god, there's Seal lying next to me. What's he doing there?'

"I get a smile on my face immediately. Our honeymoon period is definitely not over."

The couple - who raise three children together - make sure they spend time together without their kids to keep their relationship exciting.

She added to America's InStyle magazine: "We have date nights. We go to dinner or to the movies. We like to keep it romantic. Some people wake up in the morning and turn over when they see their mate. That's not us."

Angelina Jolie falls out with dad Jon Voight… again



Actress upset about his support of John McCain in US election battle

Angelina Jolie is said to have turned her back on her father Jon Voight after he publicly backed John McCain to be the next US president.

The actress and partner Brad Pitt, 44, supported Barack Obama, 47, who won the election earlier this month.

Angelina, 33, is also thought to have been upset that Jon spoke so highly of Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, 44.

‘She was embarrassed by her father’s association with McCain, not to mention his comments about Sarah Palin, who she isn’t a fan of,’ a source tells the Daily Express.

'Things are fragile between them and it doesn’t take much to rock the boat. Their political differences haven’t helped things.’

Angelina and Jon, 69, have had a strained relationship ever since he split from her mother Marcheline Bertrand when she was just a year old.

Victoria Beckham plans for David's move to Milan



Posh intends to spend much of her time in Italian fashion capital with her husband.

Victoria Beckham has devised a strategy to help her cope with husband David’s move to Italy in January.

The 33-year-old footballer is on loan to Italian club AC Milan for at least 2 months, and Posh, 34, has been worried about the disruption it will cause to her and their 3 sons – Brooklyn, 9, Romeo, 6, and Cruz, 3.

Now she has a plan to ease her fears, which includes extended visits to Milan and impromptu ‘check-ins’ on David.

‘She felt she had to take control of the situation,’ a source tells Now. ‘Having a plan that allowed her to be with David frequently, but still work on her career, was crucial for her.

‘She now aims to spend at least 8 days at a time in Milan. David will only have a few hours’ notice of Victoria’s arrival, so he won’t be too happy about that.’

She will also be making appointments to see fashion editors in Milan and attending fashion shows around Europe, so she’ll always be close by to keep an eye on her handsome husband.

Scarlett Johansson Finally Responds To Lindsay Lohan 'Bloody C**t' Graffiti



The actress is confused...

Scarlett Johansson has finally responded to Lindsay Lohan's 2006 graffiti-based attack on her.

The Mean Girls star reportedly wrote "Scarlett is a bloody c**t" with permanent marker in a New York bathroom stall during a night out with Kate Moss two years ago.

And Scarlett insists she is still baffled by Lindsay's sentiments, since the two actresses have only met a handful of times.

She tells Allure, "I don't know what the motivation was. I remember it was something really vulgar - I mean shockingly so, like, 'Whoa, what, who are you?'

"I don't really know that person (Lohan). I only met her, like, three times."

Ashlee Simpson in labour




Ashlee Simpson reportedly went into labour with her first child over the weekend.

The 'Little Miss Obsessive' singer's husband, Fall Out Boy rocker Pete Wentz, was said to have texted his friends on Friday night (14.11.08) telling them the happy news he and Ashlee would soon be welcoming their first child into the world.

A source close to Pete told Life and Style Weekly magazine: "Pete texted his friends last night that Ashlee is in labour!"

The rumour was further fuelled after Pete wrote on his blog he would be cancelling his scheduled appearance on 'Larry King Live' "due to breaking news and scheduling conflicts".

It has since been reported that Ashlee has now given birth to her baby.

However, a representative for the 24-year-old singer has denied the claims, adding to US TV show 'Access Hollywood' that Ashlee "has not yet gone into labour".

Samantha Ronson's PETA fury




Samantha Ronson has blasted animal rights group PETA for pelting her girlfriend Lindsay Lohan with flour.

The DJ has branded the person who threw the flour at Lindsay - who arrived at the VIP Room Theater nightclub in Paris, France, wearing a fur stole on Saturday (15.11.08) - no better than an "animal".

Samantha - who has been dating 'Mean Girls' star Lindsay since early this year - wrote on her blog: "The girl who threw the flour acted like an animal herself. I take that back, it's an insult to animals to group her in with them, my dog is FAR more civilized than that person.

"It's a pity that some groups feel the need to assault people as opposed to fighting with words. Whenever I feel the need to vent about something that feels unfair to me I reach for my computer, I don't run out of the house with abusive intentions. I don't expect everyone to react the same way, but I do expect people to respect each other."

A representative for PETA - who included Lindsay on their Worst Dressed List earlier this year because of her frequent fur wearing - has defended the group's actions.

Spokesperson Robbie LeBlanc explained: "There is nothing remotely 'fashionable' about the torture and death of animals killed for fur. Lindsay Lohan might be able to ignore images of bloody animals skinned alive for their pelts, but we hope a dash of flour will help her rise to the occasion and forsake fur once and for all."
