Dina Lohan has displayed plenty of bad judgment in the past: She married Michael Lohan, the crazy famewhore who likely puts the latest issue of OK! magazine next to the Bible on his nightstand; she steered daughter Lindsay down the worst path possible, which led to arrests and multiple stints in rehab; then she paraded her youngest daughter, Ali, on reality television in an effort to score a record deal. It's quite sad, actually.
To aid her latest project, Dina went to the media with claims that music manager Johnny Wright is desperate to steer Ali's career, much like he has done with Justin Timberlake and the Jonas Brothers. Dina's rep issued a statement saying she was "interested and would take the meeting" with Wright. One problem: Johnny hates her guts and has no problem admitting it.

Hot on the heels of New Kids on the Block, Lance Bass teased girls across America with the possibility of an *NSYNC reunion in the near future.
'We're definitely itching to do some music. … We've always discussed it. It's always a possibility and we still owe some records to the record companies.'
'I want like the seriousness of the possibility,' Nancy [O'Dell] asked of the reunion actually happening.
'The seriousness is good,' Lance said. 'I'm serious! … [But] it's gonna be hard to get Justin [Timberlake] to calm down and get off tour. He has not stopped since our last tour. He's a workaholic.'
Translation: Justin won't participate until he's used up his 15 minutes of fame.

Lil' Wayne, who gave one of the more memorable VMA performances this weekend thanks to his inability to keep his pants on, seems to be quite the diva: The troubled rapper, who has a history of run-ins with the law that doesn't quite rival that of DMX, reportedly refused to take the stage at Friday night's "Fashion Rocks" event because he didn't want his bag checked by security. So he bailed, which then led to him changing his mind and being a pain in the ass for the rest of the night.
Click through for the full entertaining story, as told by a senior production staffer.
For the last few idiots left who look to Lynne Spears for parenting advice, consider this: The woman just leaked some of the "shocking" revelations from her new tell-all disguised as a celebrity parenting how-to in an effort to garner some publicity. The revelations include stories about Britney's sex life and drug and alcohol abuse, which would be surprising if the wise Road Kill Willie hadn't already spilled the beans.
Apparently Lynne claims that Britney began drinking alcohol at the age of 13, when she joined the Mickey Mouse Club. By 14, she had lost her virginity to an 18-year-old football player from her hometown, and by 15 she was taking drugs. Lynne details "the horror when Britney, just 16, was caught with cocaine and cannabis on a private jet." While Brit was the same age, Lynne allowed her to sleep with then-boyfriend Justin Timberlake because "Lynne thought Britney was in love and Justin was good for her."
So lessons learned? Lynne says she "regrets handing over control of Britney’s career to managers and allowing her daughter to be promoted as a sex object in raunchy videos at such a young age," which is basically saying, "I'm sorry those other people screwed up." Sounds like Mother of the Year to us.

I don't watch Dancing With the Stars but it's looking like I'll have to this season, thanks to the participation of my former boyfriend, Lance Bass. The official cast was announced today, and it also includes Kim Kardashian, Jeffrey Ross, Cloris Leachman and Susan Lucci.
But enough about the D-listers: Lance has officially been on America's radar for 10 years thanks to *NSYNC's July 1998 Disney special. At right is a clip from the show that made me fall in love. Who knew 10 years later Justin would date and dump Britney Spears, Joey would appear on DWTS and host a karaoke show, JC would judge some dance crew competition, and Chris would completely fall off the planet. Congrats, Lance: You're following the path of all great boy band has-beens.

In its coverage of last night's Teen Choice Awards, E! Online calls Justin Timberlake "hunky." Question: Is that accurate? We thought "hunky" was reserved for guys like Vin Diesel and Harrison Ford. Isn't Justin Timberlake more like a cute hall monitor?
Justin Timberlake insists he doesn't think of himself as a fashion icon, but does feel the need to take responsibility for one of the most annoying trends of all time:
It's funny, I keep hearing Ashton Kutcher say how he was responsible for trucker caps. [My best friend and I] were wearing them when we were seventeen.
We don't think that was all you, Justin, but you did bring back the d-bag trend. You'll always have that.
Early this morning when I couldn't sleep, I turned on the TV and watched the entirety of West Side Story, which I hadn't seen in about eight years. Wow. How frickin' amazing is that thing? And now I'm scared, because it's only a matter of time before some executive getting fat on the Remake Era rediscovers it. Can't you just see it? Christina Aguilera as Maria and Justin Timberlake as Tony. Blech. I'll stop there before I unwittingly spell out the original's downfall.
Madonna has some sort of obsession with the rear ends of Hollywood's finest, having first given a B12 shot to Justin Timberlake's behind and then following suit with Gerard Butler. Our future husband said he was sick on the set of a Guy Ritchie film when Madonna decided to play nurse:
Well, she was amazing. She just said, 'Drop your pants.' I stood there with my little bottom out, and she gave me a shot in the bum! … It didn't work at all — I got more sick! But I appreciated the effort.
We have to hand it to Madonna: The whole B12 shot thing is pretty ingenious. Hope she doesn't mind if we steal it.

THIS CAN ONLY END BADLY "[OK! magazine] can exclusively confirm that Justin Timberlake is recording a duet with Britney for her upcoming studio album."
The pained expression you see at left is Eli Manning's best attempt at a smile during Justin Timberlake's EPSY Awards opening monologue. We couldn't sit through the eight minutes of footage because Justin was just so painful to watch — like a small child trying to keep the attention while all the adults just sit around and ignore him in hopes he will go away. Unfortunately, Justin and his ego stuck around throughout the show.

Four years after Janet Jackson’s infamous Super Bowl “wardrobe malfunction,” a federal appeals court ruled that the Federal Communications Commission “acted arbitrarily and capriciously” in issuing a $550,000 indecency fine to CBS. That's kind of an understatement.
Try as she may, Britney Spears just can't drum up much excitement about her new album that's in the works, even when she starts singing songs called "ATM." The lyrics to that fine song are as follows: "Hey Mama, I know it’s my cash you seek. … You know they treat me like an ATM, but y'all know that I’m too good for 'em."
Taking her frustrations out on her mother? Nothing new. What is new, however, is her claim in another song, "Already Bad," which contains a confession for Justin Timberlake: "I know you thought you were the first, but I had already quenched my thirst, I was already bad." Unfortunately for Britney, this would have been shocking had it been the year 2003. Now, after witnessing the head-shaving incident and Brit being carted away in an ambulance, that's nothing.

The most annoying thing by far about last night's ESPY Awards was Justin Timberlake, who hosted the event. We're sure he did a great job, but, judging from these pictures, he still seems to think he's a lot cuter than he really is.
