JERK ALERT: In the category of, "With Fathers like that, who needs enemies?" Lindsay Lohan's dad, Michael, decided that to "help" her get off prescription drugs he released a tape of her crying and basically having the kind of emotional chat with your dad that ought to be, you know, private. Except old man Lohan puts it out there for everyone to hear which makes him a Thin Slices goat. (RL)

DIVA/NO DIVA: Maria Carey follows the famous-singer-becomes-actor route to a tee in her new film by de-glamifying (is that a word?) herself and zigging when you think she might be zagging. She even sports a moustache. (RL)


SHE TALKS: Rihanna's going to spill the beans with Diane Sawyer Thursday and Friday about Chris Brown's assault of her, but she's already talked to Glamour magazine and she didn't like being in the middle of a media firestorm. We don't blame her. (RL)

ADRIANNE UPDATE: Toledo's Adrianne Palicki has been busy with a number of TV projects and here's her latest: a starring role in the Jamie Babbitt thriller Breaking the Girl. (RL)
