Some people just can't keep their hands to themselves

Its going to be a short post today. This Friday has turned out to be a bit busier than this redhead was prepared for. Well, its been quite a week in the world of entertainment I must say. While most of the news has been rather common place, there have been a few gems that have popped up here and there. And this Lindsay Lohan thing it totally getting out of control. In my previous post, I blogged about the story in the New York Post in which a Columbia student claimed that LiLo owes her over $10,000 for "borrowing " her fur coat. Today comes another story accusing out little Lindsay of having even stickier fingers. Check it out:
The same week a Columbia University student insisted Lohan swiped her $11,000 blond mink coat in New York City earlier this year, model Lauren Hastings says on the buzznet.com Web site
Citing five witnesses, Hastings alleges, "They all said they saw Lindsay Lohan basically in my closet, handing a bag of clothes to her bodyguard."
In an email to PEOPLE, Lohan's rep responds: "This is all not true. It's not what it seems."
Police reportedly searched for the missing items, but they were not recovered. According to documents that Inside Edition obtained from the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, Hastings did report the theft of clothing, but the DA's office pressed no charges against Lohan, due to insufficient evidence.
Said Hastings: "I contacted Lindsay and said, 'Look, I know you stole my clothes.' She then said I was completely delusional, I was pathetic." (source People Online)


I don't know if this story is true or if this "model" just wants to get her name in the papers, but if it is true, then Lindsay's going to need to do some damage control stat! At least there isn't photographic proof that she took the clothes like there was last time. I wonder what her rep meant by "It's not what it seems"? There may be more to this mystery than meets the eye.

Moving on, Hulk Hogan (real name Terry Bollea) has had a pretty bad year, which seems to happen to people who put their personal lives on TV for all of the world to see. First his kid gets into a pretty bad accident, then his wife leaves him, then his daughter gets his reality show, now his son is going to jail for the accident that left his friend in critical condition.
Nick Bollea was sentenced to eight months in a Florida county jail on Friday after pleading no contest to charges of felony reckless driving, stemming from the Aug. 6, 2007, car crash that left his best friend, John Graziano, in critical condition.
In addition to the jail time, which begins immediately, Bollea, 17, was sentenced to five years probation, during which he will serve 500 hours of community service, not be allowed to drink any alcohol and have his driver's license revoked for three years. Dressed in a gray suit and light blue shirt and tie, Bollea looked somber as he was taken to meet the court officers. His father, Hulk Hogan (real name: Terry Bollea), stood and watched as uniformed authorities removed his son from the courtroom. Nick did not have a chance to say goodbye to his family before he was taken into custody.
In delivering his sentence, the judge specifically asked that Bollea use his community service to do something positive "that reflects what John did in his service to our country as a Marine." (source People Online)

While I have no doubt that Nick deserves the sentence he received, I still feel bad for his parents and the people who are going to have to drive him around for the next three years after he gets out of prison. Poor Hulk, at least he still has his daughter's best friend, I mean new girlfriend to keep him cheered up.

Well that's about all this redhead has time for. I promise to do better next week, but now I'm off to get my hairs did. It takes some effort to look like this ;)
Later!
