Well, that didn't take long. Lindsay Lohan, fresh off probation, is being accused of battery. A woman filed a battery report, claiming Lilo got into a confrontation with her at a L.A. nightclub last Thursday night. The woman said Lohan pushed and shoved her when she began talking to a male friend of Lohan. The woman claims she was injured on her back and says she has visible bruises. Lohan claims she was home the night of the alleged attack and a representative for the actress said, "Lindsay was absolutely not involved in any sort of altercation whatsoever. This is clearly another case of someone looking for money and 15 minutes of fame." Though Lohan is off formal probation, she's still on informal probation for her necklace theft case until May 2014. If she were to get in trouble with the law, she could face 245 days in jail.

Bynes was still in her clubbing outfit, a short skirt, heels and jacket, when she was photographed looking glum while waiting for her car. Do we have another Lohan on our hands?

George Clooney, Meryl Streep, and The Artist were the big award winners at the Golden Globes Sunday night, but more importantly, who won the red carpet?
