Just when you thought he could finally rest in peace…

Although Heath Ledger’s passing happened over two months ago, the star is still garnering news...and he has his family to thank for most of it. 

After it was revealed that the Brokeback Mountain star did not provide for his daughter, Matilda, in his outdated will, Heath’s father assured everyone that the 2-year-old would be taken care of.  Unfortunately, this announcement forced Kim Ledger’s estranged brothers to come out of the woodwork and cry foul.  Apparently Heath’s pop was previously accused of mishandling another relative’s estate when he was appointed overseer.

Now there’s the chance that another party could shake up matters a bit more.  A possible love child.

Lindsay Lohan’s Nude Photo Spread

How do you get people to stop associating you with drugs?  You get them to think of you nude.

In the next issue of New York magazine, recently-rehabbed Lindsay Lohan does her best to evoke Marilyn Monroe.  The photo spread is practically identical to the one Monroe did back in 1962.  That shoot - now known as “The Last Sitting” - took place just several weeks before the legend died...from an apparent drug overdose.

(Sorry, Linds - still thinking about you and drugs.)

Photographer Bert Stern, the same man who behind the camera forty-six years ago, said he wanted to work with Lohan because he believed she had “more depth to her”. Really?

Heath Ledger’s “Dirty Laundry”

Posted by Elaine Furst
Categories: Movies, Editorials

The death of Heath Ledger last week seemed to bring out the worst in our fellow “journalists”.

After watching the TV coverage of Heath Ledger’s passing, I couldn’t help but be reminded of Don Henley’s song, “Dirty Laundry”. For those of you who aren’t familiar with it, “Dirty Laundry” is Henley’s commentary on the decline of journalism and how the people who cover the news are really just failed actors and news coverage is all about finding the “dirtiest” story about someone and running with it whether it’s true or not. (Henley wrote the song fifteen years ago.) The lyrics that particularly came to mind in light of Ledger’s passing are:

“Dirty little secrets, dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybody’s pie
Love to cut you down to size, we love dirty laundry”

The three “journalists” that appeared to be most guilty of this were:

Nancy Grace. On her show, Grace called on a number of “professionals” (i.e mental health “experts") who prattled on about Ledger’s “alleged” state of mind at the time of his death and what the meaning of all those pills scattered around his body “probably” meant. I didn’t really pay too close attention to what they were saying until the term “bipolar disorder” came up.  I then did what hopefully any sane, sensitive person would do. I changed the channel and put on QVC. (If I want to watch schlock, I’ll buy it from QVC.)
