LINDSAY LOHAN refuses to watch hit TV show GLEE - because she’s still smarting over a series of "snarky" comments the characters have made about her.
The Mean Girls actress was fuming after show writers poked fun at her personal troubles during an episode of the all-singing, all-dancing show last year (10).
In the segment, Gwyneth Paltrow’s Spanish-speaking character told students: "Lindsay Lohan is totally crazy, right? Repeat… Repeat after me with more energy. Come on!" The ill feeling escalated in February (11) when writers penned another episode in which Lohan’s mother Dina was branded one of the world’s biggest losers.
And the actress is refusing to take the incidents in good spirit - she now boycotts the show.
Lohan tells Australia’s Kyle and Jackie O radio show, "I don’t watch Glee, no. They have made a lot of snarky remarks about me. I don’t know why. They don’t need to do that. I think they are really talented though, and their work schedules are insane, I have heard."

SUEDE frontman BRETT ANDERSON has retired his trademark butt-slapping stage act - because it feels like "self-parody" after almost 20 years.
The cult British band shot to fame in the early 1990s and split in 2003 before reforming last year (10) for a series of concerts.
They are currently undertaking a three-night residency in London to play their classic early albums in full - but singer Anderson has vowed not to pull his camp butt-whipping moves during the nostalgic shows.
He tells NME.com, "You can’t be too historical and you got to have a bit of disrespect. You can’t have self-parody and slapping your a**e."

Rocker PJ HARVEY is planning to branch out into the literary world and release a book of short stories and prose.
The musician recently took up a post as a guest designer for director Francis Ford Coppola’s All-Story magazine and the extracurricular activity has inspired her to showcase some of the paintings and writings she has been working on in her spare time.
She tells Spinner.co.uk, "I’d like to do more because I just moved into doing oil painting as well, which I’m really enjoying and I’d like to spend more time doing that.
"I’m also a keen writer, not just of songs, but of poetry, short prose, short stories. I’d like to release regularly my extraneous works, drawings and writings that aren’t songs, but just other things that I do." Last month (Apr11), Harvey admitted she was contemplating staging a major art show to display her paintings from over the years, but admitted it would have to "wait until the time feels right".

SLIPKNOT frontman COREY TAYLOR is set to deliver a guest speech at Britain’s prestigious Oxford University later this year (11).
The singer admits he was stunned when school officials approached him about the gig because he’s not the most scholarly of stars.
He says, "I’ve been asked to speak at Oxford University, which is very ironic seeing as I didn’t graduate from high school.
"They took a vote about who they would want to speak at their student union and I was the number one pick, apparently, so I was like, ‘Yeah, OK, let’s do this.’ I’m probably going to swear and sweat a lot."

SELENA GOMEZ’s representative insists no horses were harmed during filming for the singer/actress’ new music video after pop star PINK expressed concerns about the animals having their coats painted for the shoot.
The Trouble hitmaker took to Twitter.com on Thursday (19May11) and called on animal rights campaigners in California to take action after hearing about the stunt, which saw a number of horses being painted pink.
The singer wrote, "If there are any animal activists around Malibu - at Leo Cabrillo State Beach, there are horses being painted for a stupid music video. Shame… Artists should be more aware and responsible for their actions." But a spokesperson for Gomez is adamant the colouring did no harm to the horses - and video producers have the approval of an animal rights official to prove it.
The rep tells People.com, "It was important to the Production Company, Record Label and Ms. Gomez that no animals were harmed and all proper precautions were taken.
"A non-toxic, vegetable-based powder paint was applied via an airbrush and removed with water. An official from the Humane Society was on set supervising."

Action man JASON STATHAM gifted his girlfriend ROSIE HUNTINGTON-WHITELEY special stunt pads while she filmed the new TRANSFORMERS movie after the model-turned-actress returned home one evening "covered in bruises".
The British beauty has replaced Megan Fox in the third installment of the action franchise, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, but she wasn’t prepared for the battering her body would take from performing some of her own stunts during the shoot.
So The Transporter star Statham bought Huntington-Whiteley top-of-the-range pads to protect her from serious injury, while still looking sexy.
She says, "I came (home) from filming covered in bruises… He was like, ‘You’ve got to wear your stunt pads!’ He sent me razor-thin gel stunt pads… ’cause the regular ones make you look like a football player." And Statham’s thoughtful present has paid off - Huntington-Whiteley was recently voted the sexiest woman in the world by readers of both men’s magazines Maxim and FHM.

Former wrestler HULK HOGAN is "completely devastated" by the death of his old friend RANDY SAVAGE because they only recently patched up their differences after more than a decade of no contact.
Savage, widely known as Macho Man, was killed in a car crash in Tampa, Florida on Friday morning (20May11) after suffering a heart attack behind the wheel, his brother Lanny Poffo has told TMZ.com. He was 58.
Fighter-turned-actor Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson led the tributes to the wrestling icon soon after news of the tragedy broke, and now Hogan and a host of other industry professionals have added their sympathies.
Hogan admits he wishes he had rekindled his friendship with Savage sooner.
He writes on his Twitter.com page, "I’m completely devastated, after over 10 years of not talking with Randy, we’ve (sic) finally started to talk and communicate.
"He had so much life in his eyes & in his spirit, I just pray that he’s happy and in a better place and we miss him. We miss him a lot. I feel horrible about the 10 years of having no communication. This was a tough one." Meanwhile, World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) president Vince McMahon has branded Savage one of the "greatest superstars of his time".
Florida police have launched an investigation into the accident, although officials state both Savage and his wife Lynn, who suffered only minor injuries, were wearing their seatbelts when the incident occurred. Cops have also ruled out alcohol as a factor in the crash.
An autopsy is scheduled to take place on Saturday (21May11).
