Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 2:54 am

MICKEY ROURKE has got movie gossips guessing about the actress he hated w orking with after confessing to teaming up with "a pain in the a**" in a recent movie.
The Wrestler star reveals the actress in question has fooled everyone i nto thinking she’s "a lot better than she is".
Rourke tells MovieHole.net, "I worked with an actress recently who, des pite having a reputation as a good actress, s**ts herself when that littl e red light comes on.
"She’s fooled everyone into thinking she’s a lot better than she is. Wo rking with someone like that is a pain in the a**." One actress who definitely didn’t annoy the actor was Transformers star Megan Fox - his co-star in new film Passion Play.
Rourke is confident Fox is all set to become a great star.
He explains, "It was a lot of fun. (Fox) was great to work with… I me an, look at her! And it was also great to work with someone who may be be autiful and good-looking but also knows how to do her homework. I think p eople will have a different perspective of her (after this film). It was great to work with someone like Megan." Rourke’s most recent co-stars, aside from Fox, include Scarlett Johanss on, Olivia Munn and Gwyneth Paltrow (Iron Man 2), Isabel Lucas and Freida Pinto (Immortals), Emmanuelle Chriqui (13) and Winona Ryder and Amber He ard (Informers).

MICHAEL LOHAN PLANNING LEGAL ACTION TO GET LINDSAY TO FACE PROBLEMS

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 2:51 am

LINDSAY LOHAN’s concerned father is preparing "any and all appropriate le gal action" to prevent his famous daughter from falling victim to the sam e fate as her idol MARILYN MONROE.
Michael Lohan attempted to stage an intervention at the actress’ Hollyw ood home last week (22Apr10) in front of her younger sister Ali, claiming his eldest daughter is hooked on prescription drugs.
Michael then went public with his plans to ask a judge to place Lindsay under a conservatorship, but agreed to drop the whole thing if the Mean Girls star agreed to sit down with him for a serious discussion about her problems.
The actress rejected her dad’s request.
Now, Michael’s lawyer tells TMZ.com his client plans to go to court to force the issue, and the Lohan patriarch will take "any and all appropria te legal action to save and protect his daughter." A statement from Michael’s attorney reads, "Michael has a problem milli ons of Americans have: what can a parent do when an adult child appears t o have a serious alcohol or drug problem? What can a parent do when that adult child’s life appears to be spiralling out of control? "Michael loves his daughter with all his heart. He has watched along wi th the rest of us over the past few months as Lindsay has been photograph ed partying and clubbing night after night, appearing as though she is un der the influence of alcohol or substances. He is heartbroken about her c urrent condition. With his own two eyes, just last week, he has seen her looking worse than ever." And Michael admits he is worried his daughter could suffer the same fat e as many Hollywood legends, including her idol Monroe.
His lawyer adds, "Michael is not going to stand idly by and watch his d aughter become another Hollywood statistic. He intends to do everything i n his power to prevent Lindsay from becoming another Marilyn Monroe, Anna Nicole Smith, Michael Jackson, Heath Ledger, or Corey Haim. " Monroe was found dead, aged 36, at her home in Brentwood, California in 1969. It is widely believed the depressed movie icon committed suicide b y overdosing on barbiturates.

Posted in: Entertainment — PR-inside Entertainment News @ 11:24 pm

JENNIFER LOPEZ’s ex-husband OJANI NOA has lost out on a role in hit reali ty show JERSEY SHORE - because producers would have faced legal problems if they’d hired him.
Noa is preparing to file for bankruptcy, insisting recent legal battles with his former wife have drained his finances - and he can’t get work b ecause potential employers fear to wrath of Lopez’s lawyers, who are figh ting to keep him from releasing information and candid home video footage of the singer/actress.
Noa and his production partner Ed Meyer have been blocked from distribu ting both the film and "confidential information" about Lopez, after a ju dge issued an injunction - and they lost a legal bid to overturn the ruli ng.
And now Meyer insists the legal mess is preventing Noa from taking lucr ative TV offers that could help him pay off his debts.
The producer tells WENN, "He can’t work anymore because if he says he w as married to Jennifer Lopez on a job, the lawyers are gonna come after t hem (employers).
"He did a Survivor show in Spain and he got invited back for the second season and he was already to go and they said, ‘No, we can’t do it becau se we’ve spoken to Jennifer Lopez’s lawyers and, sorry, we can’t take the risk.’" But the Jersey Shore snub was the one that stung the most.
Meyer adds, "One of the executive producers told him, ‘Ojani, we’re doi ng Miami and you’re big in Miami but I can’t put you on the show because I’ll get sued by Jennifer Lopez.’ They thought he’d be perfect for a walk -on role." The producer reveals his partner is "depressed" and taking hand-outs fr om relatives to cover his legal costs and survive.
