Lindsay Lohan must be running short of cash to pay her legal bills, because she’s posing for obscure magazines again.    She’s the cover girl for BLANK‘s issue #61.  She was photographed by Dennis Leupold and Stephen Gomillion for the Panamanian rag.    If I’m translating the Spanish correctly, Lilo was deeply involved in the styling of the shoot.  Which is not surprising, really, because she mostly just looks like a trashy slut.   (Except in that one photo where she looks kind of like Paris Hilton…oh, wait.  Never mind.)    “Ooooh yeah, baby, watch me smoke while I grab my own boob…”  Retch.

HowEVER… despite the skanky sheen all over this photoshoot, I think Lindsay’s face actually looks really pretty.  Her makeup and hair are lovely.   If you want to see more, just click on through.

Johnny Depp went to Disneyland in Anaheim, California Saturday night to attend the world premiere of Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides.

The 47 year-old actor said that this sequel took longer because they wanted to make sure it had something new to offer and not just repeat the previous success.

“Had I had a little more control at the wheel early on, I would have spaced them out more,” Depp said, speaking of the first two sequels at the premiere. “One of the reasons “On Stranger Tides” took this amount of time was to really focus on what we could do to make it interesting and new and fresh and not just rehash the same old jokes.”

More photos of Johnny are below. (Read the article)

Michael J. Fox covers Good Housekeeping‘s June issue and tells the magazine he doesn’t let what might happen interfere with how he lives in the present.

“You know, there’s a rule in acting called ‘Don’t play the result,’” the actor says. “If you have a character who’s going to end up in a certain place, don’t play that until you get there. Play each scene and each beat as it comes.”

“And that’s what you do in your life: You don’t play the result,” Fox continued. “So you get diagnosed with Parkinson’s, and you can play the result. You can go right to, ‘Oh, I’m sick.’ It took me seven years to figure out that I’m not at the result”

“I’m not at the result till the end. So let’s not play it. It’s not written yet. And so that’s the attitude I take in life. Another expression is ‘Act as if.’ Act as if it’s the way you want it to be, and it’ll eventually morph into that.”

Fox, who will turn 50 in June, says he wants his kids to understand that life is what you make of it.

“Life is what you put into it and how much you take out of it,” he imparts. “You put in more than is expected, and you take out less than you want. Everything is cause and effect. If you don’t move, nothing will move with you, and nothing will move toward you. And so that involves risk and also resiliency. But I think I just really want my kids to enjoy life as much as I do.”

Before they were married, Prince William and Kate Middleton famously said that they intended to manage their household – a cottage in Anglesey, North Wales near the base where he is stationed as a Search and Rescue pilot for the Royal Air Force  – without servants.

And just a week after their wedding, it’s clear that they meant it.  The Duchess of Cambridge was spotted shopping for groceries at a local grocery store.  She had her security detail with her (they’re on duty 24/7), but aside from that and of course the paparazzi following her around, she stocked up on basics just like any other young wife.   Reports say she “skipped” across the parking lot as she returned her empty cart.

I hope she enjoys these few years of relative isolation and normalcy while William finishes his service in the RAF. Peep pictures of Kate pushing her shopping cart at the Waitrose market here.

Bar Refaeli makes army green look sexy in the May 2011 issue of GQ Italia.    She rocks various states of combat dress, I mean undress, for the military-themed issue.    Small wonder Bar was named #6 on Maxim’s Hot 100 list.

This look totally reminds me of the video for ‘Hard’ by Rihanna.

Click through for more hot pictures of Bar (including her topless cover!) and behind the scenes video of her photoshoot.

With all the secrecy surrounding Kate Middleton‘s choice of bridal gown designer for her wedding to Prince William last month, it might surprise you to learn that Sarah Burton of Alexander McQueen wasn’t the only one keeping hush-hush about her sewing projects.  Military and ceremonial specialty tailor Kashket and Partners was responsible for making the new Duke of Cambridge’s Irish Guards wedding clothes – as well as 2,000 other uniforms for the Royal Wedding.   Now that a confidentiality agreement has lapsed, the shop is speaking out.

Kashket and Partners, which is run by brothers Marlon and Russell Kashket, created uniforms for Prince William, Prince Harry, the wedding pageboys, the drum majors, the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, and the five Footguards regiments.  It took 350 tailors to make the clothes, which were all hand-sewn.

They say Kate was deeply involved with the design of the men’s clothes as well as her own:

When we designed the outfits, we sat and had coffee and biscuits with Catherine and William. She was lovely and gave more input than people realise.

However, when it came to his own comfort, William knew exactly what he wanted.

‘He was very concerned about the heat because he knew all the cameras and lights would make it very hot in the Abbey.  ‘We worked together to get the look he wanted while using material to absorb the heat and make sure he didn’t pass out in front of two billion people across the world.’

The Kashkets used “special micropads – thin sponges designed to absorb sweat” in the lining of the Prince’s uniform to help him stay cooler under all that ceremonial wool.

Harry’s uniform posed another challenge:  with no pockets in traditional ceremonial uniforms, where could he secure Kate’s wedding ring?   The master craftsmen made a small modification to the cuff on Harry’s uniform:

‘We had a last-minute rush when the palace asked us if we could incorporate some device that would hold the ring.  To solve the problem we decided to sew a tiny secret compartment into the scarlet cuff sealed with Velcro. This kept Catherine’s ring safe.’

Russell Kashket said he was “very pleased to be part of the biggest day this country has seen for many years.”

It was only when I was sitting in the Abbey that I realised how I felt,’ Russell Kashket said. ‘He had chosen us. What an honour. It was unbelievable.
