Celebrity Friends: Paris Hilton joke about Lindsay Lohan not funny?

Celebrity Scandal!

Paris Hilton funny joke about Lindsay Lohan not PC for celebrity friends?

[May 7]

Reality television star Paris Hilton has officially said she is sorry about joking publicly about convicted criminal Lindsay Lohan and her… ummm… lack of judgement about the best kind of luxury items to steal while shoplifting. The celebrity socialite apologized to Lindsay Lohan via Twitter after making what some thought were humorous comments about the Disney Princess’ now notorious jewelry theft case. The funniest part of her public apology? In a preview of her new reality show The World According to Paris, Hilton was mistaken for Lohan when giving earrings to a homeless woman, claims Socialite Life, showing how any publicity in Hollywood social circles can be bad or good. In this case the cloud of non-PC jokes has been overshadowed by the silver lining that Paris Hilton slamming Lindsay Lohan in jest actually helped promote her new reality series.

So what did Paris Hilton say about Lindsay Lohan that deserved an apology, and why were her remarks offensive rather than funny?

Socialite Life writes:

The socialite quipped: “If I were Lindsay, I would be stealing earrings… not giving them away.”

Lohan is currently involved in an ongoing court case after being accused of stealing a necklace from LA boutique Kamofie & Company.

According to celebrity gossip website TMZ, a hurt and embarrassed Lindsay Lohan told other more sympathetic celebrity friends:

“[Paris] is mean. You don’t have to make fun of serious matters in people’s lives to be funny.”

Celebrity Dating: New career for LiLo dad Michael Lohan as Gigolo?

Pity date, anyone?

Michael Lohan selling himself like a Gigolo, hoping some poor lucky man or woman will buy him as a date so he can donate a portion of his man-whore wages to rehab charities…

As if Michael Lohan hadn’t embarrassed Disney princess daughter Lindsay Lohan of The Parent Trap by going on Celebrity Rehab earlier this year, the father who also has struggled with addiction is now putting himself on the auction block for dating website WhatsYourPrice.com, which solicits dates to members who are willing to pay, according to RadarOnline.

Michael Lohan reportedly has asked for $10,000 to go out on a date. He says he will require airfare if the date is out of state, and he insists on first class travel and at least a four-star hotel. You might think this is just a ploy for more attention, although one could argue it’s not the kind of positive attention the embattled father needs right now, but he says otherwise.

Michael Lohan told RadarOnline:

“I’m willing to do this in order to donate the money to a rehab and recovery program or programs,” Lohan told RadarOnline.

In addition to appearing on Celebrity Rehab, Michael Lohan was recently in the news late last month when authorities arrested him on charges of domestic violence against a cohabitant, stemming from a woman’s complaint in an apartment near West Hollywood, People reported. Police say the troubled actor did not appear to be intoxicated and did cooperate. The victim was not identified and refused medical treatment.

It seems odd that Michael Lohan would be willing to sell himself for a date, given his recent troubles with women and his celebrity status. Also, given the fact that he’s been open about addiction and his daughter, Lindsay Lohan, is still facing legal troubles of her own following a stint in rehab, one would think he’s not the ideal date candidate. But who knows? Some women may disagree.

Not exactly the green celebrity type, maybe Michael Lohan hopes to mend his relationship with the charitable green celebrity Lindsay Lohan by doing something charitable in the name of rehab. Perhaps that was his intention by appearing on Celebrity Rehab. Let’s just hope he doesn’t do anything to sink Lindsay’s role in the new film Gotti: Three Generations with John Travolta.

Scratch that. Word on the street is she already lost the lead role playing John Gotti’s daughter Victoria Gotti, but will instead play a lesser role of a mobster wife.

[Apr. 20]

Troubled Disney princess and actress Lindsay Lohan is out of the running to play Victoria Gotti alongside John Travolta in his new film Gotti: Three Generations, according to a representative for Fiore Films, reports Access Hollywood. This would have been the first film role for Lohan since she was in rehab early this year. The star supposedly was hand-picked by Victoria Gotti herself, with whom the Lohan family is friends.

Just last week, Lohan was discussing her proposed role in the film. Access Hollywood reports:

“I’ve been speaking to some of the producers… and we’re discussing me possibly having a role in the film, which is very exciting,” Lindsay told a crew at the press conference for the project last week.

“I think it’s an amazing story in the things that the Gottis have gone through over the years and just everything that comes with that family. I think is an incredible story to tell,” she added.

But the representative for Fiore Films confirmed that the green celebrity actress was turned down: “Discussions have been broken between Fiore Films and Lindsay Lohan playing Victoria Gotti,” the rep said.

Instead, the Wall Street Journal is reporting that Lohan has been tapped to play the wife of Junior Gotti in the film. She said it would be a “great honor” to work with superstars John Travolta, who plays John Gotti, Sr., and Joe Pesci, who plays Angelo Ruggiero, one of Gotti’s deputies.
