She's back at it... and this time she brought her dad?! Lindsay Lohan, fresh off of probation, is back clubbing and has already gotten into her second alleged confrontation. TMZ reports LiLo is accused of throwing a drink during an altercation with another woman Wednesday night at the The Standard Hotel in L.A. Witnesses say the incident began after a "major misunderstanding" between Lindsay and the other girl. The girl involved was hanging out at a booth next to Lindsay's when the actress tapped the girl on the shoulder and asked, "Did you bump into me? The girl denied bumping into Lindsay and suggested maybe one of the guys in Lindsay's entourage was the one who bumped into her and then pointed at one of the men, Michael Lohan, Lindsay's dad. Lindsay replied, "That's my dad, why would he bump me? The girl said to Lindsay, "You go clubbing with your dad?" Apparently that was enough for Lindsay to allegedly start cursing at the girl and throw a drink in her face. Michael then grabbed his daughter's arm and the two of them left the club. Never one to turn down an interview, Michael was on TMZ Thursday denying Lindsay threw anything and claimed it was she who had a drink thrown at her. We're not sure who's right here, but Lindsay, you go clubbing with your dad?

Justin Bieber has been busy lately. The 18-year-old has added two new rides to his car collection. The first is a $20,000 Ducati Superbike 848 EVO. Biebs, who doesn't even have his motorcycle license yet, picked out the Arctic white silk model on a recommendation from Usher, who has the black model. And while he's waiting on that bike license, he can drive around in his new customized Smart "Swag" car. Biebs was photographed driving around in his environment-friendly car Wednesday afternoon in Beverly Hills while wearing a presumably unironic "Never Sleep, Always Party" T-shirt. If anyone can make those Smart cars cool, it's the Biebs.

People are calling her Kate Middleton's double. The English beauty queen who bears more than a striking resemblance to the Duchess of Cambridge is 19-year-old Sophie Moulds. Recent winner of the Miss Wales competition, Moulds has the same rich brown hair color, same 5'10" height, and the same eyes as Kate. And apparently, she's just as humble as the future queen of England. "She's very down to earth and she's very, very approachable," according to a Miss Wales contest organizer.

Mike 'The Situation' Sorrentino took to Facebook to explain his recent admittance into a treatment facility. He posted a status updated Wednesday afternoon stating "I have taken steps to get control of a prescription medication problem I had due to exhaustion." He has a point; fist pumping and shirt lifting sure can take a lot out of a guy.

How do you get over a broken engagement? If you're television star Kaley Cuoco, you do it by partying on St. Patrick's Day with another guy. The actress announced that her engagement was off only a few weeks ago, but according to People she spent Saturday dancing, carrying on, and playing kissy face with an unidentified new man. That is decidedly more fun than any wedding dress fitting ever was.

Everyone knows that you get one phone call from jail. After being arrested for protesting at the Sudanese Embassy on Friday, who did George Clooney call using his one phone call? "My mom," said the actor and activist. "Something never changes." Clooney jokingly told NBC's Ann Curry jail was "really rough, you can imagine." Clooney was released later that same afternoon after paying a $100 fine. Speaking on Meet the Press on Sunday, Clooney said that he felt that President Obama was in good shape for re-election, but needed to do a better job selling all of the landmark accomplishments that he achieved during his first term.

When it comes to singer Rihanna, R Rated is more than just the name of one of her albums. Recently, nude photos of Christina Hendricks, Olivia Munn, and Heather Morris have leaked online due to a phone hacking scandal. When it comes to Rihanna, she doesn't need her phone hacked for some scandalous shots to surface. While leaving a New York restaurant over the weekend, Rihanna was photographed braless while wearing a see-through mesh top, giving the viewing public more than an eyeful. Of course, "shy" would not be a term to describe the singer, especially after her Rolling Stone cover. Well, it now appears, Rihanna didn't mind the racy photos. While taking photos with fans Monday, someone asked if she had seen the topless pics. She replied, "You mean my t*tties?" She then went on to blame the paparazzi's flashes for the see-through shots. If she only had an umbrella.

In an interview with Elle UK, Jon Hamm didn't hold back on his feelings about Kim Kardashian, saying: "Whether it's Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated. Being a f**king idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture because you're rewarded significantly." Apparently Kim wasn't too happy, firing off a tweet saying, "I just heard about the comment Jon Hamm made about me in an interview. I respect Jon and I am a firm believer that everyone is entitled to their own opinion and that not everyone takes the same path in life. We’re all working hard and we all have to respect one another. Calling someone who runs their own businesses, is a part of a successful TV show, produces, writes, designs, and creates, 'stupid,' is in my opinion careless." Kim then proceeded to send multiple tweets talking about her hair ("Blonde hair don't care") and how bored she is ("What's up I'm bored"), accompanied with photos. Thankfully, Mad Men and Don Draper return this month.

Kate Upton gave a non-denial denial on Tuesday when asked if she was dating New York Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez, which would be perfect for Victoria's Secret casting director Sophia Neophitou, who told the New York Times she would never have Upton in one of her shows because she's "too obvious," and that, "she’s like a footballer’s wife, with the too-blond hair and that kind of face that anyone with enough money can go out and buy."

Photos have hit the web from heartthrob Liam Hemsworth's recent birthday party, and they feature his girlfriend Miley Cyrus posing with his, um, anatomical birthday cake.

The fallout from celebrity chef Paula Deen's announcement that she has Type 2 Diabetes has been intense — and comical — with Anthony Bourdain tweeting "Thinking of getting into the leg-breaking business, so I can profitably sell crutches later," and the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, which has put Deen's cookbook as one of the top 5 unhealthiest in 2011, has offered to help her fight diabetes with a low-fat vegan diet.

Even though the cast of director Peter Berg's (Hancock) Hasbro board game-turned-movie Battleship includes the likes of up-and-coming actor Taylor Kitsch (John Carter) and veteran tough guy Liam Neeson (The Grey), Rihanna is clearly the biggest star in the movie considering she has sold more than 20 million albums and 60 million singles and needs a warehouse to store all of her music awards. It's no wonder then that the first character featurette focuses on Rihanna and her character, Raikes, a tough-as-nails weapons officer modeled after real-life sailor Jacqueline Carrizosa, who served as a technical advisor on the movie. The featurette contains commentary from Rihanna and Carrizosa and includes behind-the-scenes footage of Rihanna in action on the set.

Before naming Steve Jobs "The Most Fascinating Person of 2011," Barbara Walters grilled Kris Jenner and the rest of the Kardashian clan, asking, "You don't sing, you don't dance, you don't act. Forgive me, but you don't have any talent." Kim Kardashian responded with, "It's more of a challenge for you to go on a reality show and get people to fall in love with you for being you. So there's definitely a lot more pressure to be famous being famous for being ourselves." Make sense?

Based on online comments, the first trailer for director Peter Berg's (Hancock) Battleship failed to convince very many viewers that the idea of turning the classic Hasbro board game into a big-budgeted, effects-driven spectacle featuring, of all things, aliens, was a very good idea. That most likely had to do with the fact the trailer was light on action and heavy on schmaltzy character introductions.
Universal Pictures has apparently taken the comments to heart because the action-packed new trailer that was recently released shifts the focus away from the human characters — though we do get to hear pop singer-turned-actress Rihanna speak for the first time — and towards the various robotic invaders that have been hiding in our planet's oceans (and that would easily fit into any of Michael Bay's Transformers movies).
