From the New York Post:

Lindsay Lohan will unveil her highly anticipated Playboy spread during an interview on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” her rep told NewsCore Tuesday.

In her first television interview since she served jail time for violating her probation, Lohan, 25, will chat with DeGeneres on Dec. 15 to promote her pictorial in the January/February issue of the men’s magazine. The issue will go on sale in late December.

“The pictorial is absolutely fantastic and very tasteful, and will be accompanied by an interview that will let readers see another side of Lindsay,” her rep said.

Did anyone else kind of snort their evening beverage when they read the quote from Lindsay‘s rep? ” … Let readers see another side of Lindsay”? I mean, the only side we haven’t seen is the brown-eyed back door, but I don’t think anyone’s really prepared for something like that.

In an appropriately-timed new interview release, Lea Michele talks to NY Mag about being cast opposite Ashton Kutcher in their upcoming flick, New Year’s Day, and it’s as cheesetastic and self-praising as you can possibly imagine. Here’s the best of the quotes!

Lea Michele’s initial reaction to being cast with THE, LIKE, HOTTEST GUY EVER, Ashton:

“You know, this guy’s like, the hottest guy, and then when they called and said that Ashton was doing it [the role], I was really freaked out. I thought I should have picked someone else and said, ‘You have to use this person!’ so I wouldn’t have been nervous. But I’m so glad, because he challenged me, and it was a really great pairing, I think.”

And Lea on being, DUH, the no-brainer choice to fill her role:

“I think I was one of the first people cast.”

Oh, and on those pesky Eponine Les Miserables casting rumors:

“How embarrassing if I don’t get it! … I was just talking to my publicist yesterday that it didn’t used to be like this in the business: I’ve been up for a lot of movies before that I really wanted to get, but now, people know a lot more than they used to and it’s all out there. … I mean, yeah, it’s super cool that you’re in consideration, but it’s also a really private thing, and then if you don’t get it … but I’m happy to be considered, and I’m happy to be in the realm of the other girls who are being considered because that’s the coolest thing for me. When I heard the other people they were considering, I was like, ‘Wow, this is awesome.’ I became like, a fan dork girl.”

OK, so it’s not as bad as it sounds. And to girlfriend’s credit, she probably would deserve the role of Eponine. But this Ashton “out of her league” thing that she keeps peddling? The “hottest guy ever” business? Girl just needs to keep those shenanigans to herself, because she’s not doing herself any favors by letting the world know that she’d completely suck the lint from between Ashton’s toes just to be photographed next to him outside of a movie premiere obligation, you feel me?

“One of the reasons God makes celebrities or other people is to give back, and to be able to use it in a positive way.”

And by “give back,” she means that God came down from his gilded throne earlier this year and revealed her true purpose on Earth: to wipe out the influx of her new, fellow reality television stars by spreading fatal STDs amongst those to the likes of The Situation, Farrah Abraham, and Brandi Glanville. Give that back, girl.

Everything finally makes sense now.

How did I not know that Kelly Rowland is a judge on the British version of The X Factor? This information totally slipped under my radar. I’m sorry, you guys. I’m a failure. (I did know about her one-woman Destiny’s Child medley, though! She performed it last week. She was not wearing pants.)

Anyway, the Daily Mail has finally published its best-researched, most hard-hitting pictorial to date: on television, from week to week, Kelly Rowland’s “mole” has been, uh, relocating itself. It also apparently changes shape and size. Yikes! She should get that checked out! Ha, ha.

I can definitely see how this “wandering beauty mark” might be distracting to viewers. Of course, I can also see using Rowland’s mole as the basis for a drinking game—but then, that’s why I don’t teach high school anymore.

Ugh, her husband’s such a schlub, right? Girlfriend here looks just so classy and classic and clean and her man shows up wearing a grungy t-shirt, beanie hat, and leather jacket. She must be so embarrassed. My Christmas wish this year would be that Courtney Stodden find a classy, classic man who can really accentuate her classy, classic style and bring out the best of her classy, classic, old Hollywood starlet vibe. I’m just waiting for her to break free, guys, and when it happens, oh boy. It’s going to just be glorious.

Sorry about that ^^. I just love the song so hard.
