Lindsay Lohan showed up in court last July with the F-word painted on her nails, and it wasn't lost on Judge Stephanie Sautner before she sentenced the former child star to four months in jail and 480 hours of community service for violating probation. "She thumbs her nose at the court. She walks into court with FU on her fingernails. I don't know what that's all about."
After posting the $75,000 bail — but not before donning an orange jumpsuit and spending about four hours in jail — LiLo said she was "blindsided" by the sentence, calling it "ridiculous" and "f**ked up." Now she's angry.

Robert De Niro is the latest celebrity to react negatively to Donald Trump's repeated questioning of Barack Obama's citizenship, telling NBC's Brian Williams, "It's crazy. They're making statements about people that they don't even back up. Go get the facts before you start saying things about people." Last week Jerry Seinfeld canceled an appearance at an event for Trump's son's foundation over the issue.

While Charlie Sheen continues his flagging "Violent Torpedo of Truth" tour — tickets for tonight's Atlanta show can be had for just $18 — ex-wives Denise Richards and Brooke Mueller have become pals, and even planned a dinner date before Mueller relapsed and went on a crack cocaine bender last week.

Lady Gaga is such a big Iron Maiden fan that she's become a roadie for the British heavy metal band while they're on tour in Florida. Her chores include ironing and serving drinks, and if she does those well, participates in drinking games.

On the other hand, the Donald Trump–Jerry Seinfeld spat seems real as Trump blasted the comedian for cancelling an appearance at a benefit for his son's foundation because of The Donald's contstant challenges to Barack Obama's citizenship. Seinfeld's spot at the event is being filled by Bret Michaels.

It's easy to play, but not so easy to win. The goal is to use the major cast of movies to get from Point A to Point B in the smallest number of moves.
