Winona Ryder's 'shoplifting' drama, Lohan lays into ex over 'sex tape'

Beleaguered actress Winona Ryder has set off theft alarm bells again.
Trash talk purveyor The National Enquierer claims that the 36-year-old was spotted leaving a Hollywood store recently with make-up she hadn't coughed up for.
Deja vu, anyone?
Ryder hit the headlines six years ago after she was convicted for shoplifting $9,000 worth of clothing from Saks Fifth Avenue in Beverly Hills.
Her career never recovered.
In this latest 'five finger discount' incident, an employee at the drug store claims the Beetlejuice star was at the CVS Pharmacy on Cahuenga Boulevard, where she made several purchases.
But when she left the store, she set off an alarm that drew the attention of a security guard.
The employee who witnessed the alleged snatch said: "Winona had a bag full of stuff, but she set off the theft alarm when she left the store.
"When a security guard stopped her, he found makeup she had not paid for."
When asked about the make-up, a wide-eyed Winona insisted: "I don't know how that happened."
The employee added: "We took unpaid items back and she left the store."
Winona's reps were contacted by the magazine and flatly denied her client was involved in such an incident. However, when it was pointed out to them that the store employee had already confirmed the heist, they said they'd "check with their client".
So has Winona reverted back to her clepto ways? Only time will tell...

Stalker alert
Former model and chat show host Tyra Banks is said to be 'living in fear'; after a nutter accused of stalking her was set free by a judge this week.
News reports indicate that despite Brady Green, 37, allegedly 'terrorising' the hell out of Banks from 'coast-to-coast', a Manhattan Court Judge released the hobo bloke without bail, once he'd pleaded not guilty to string of charges - including talking, harassment and criminal trespass.
Green had been nicked by cops for loitering in a restaurant located opposite Banks' New York TV studios the day before.
He reportedly had on his person a 'large duffel bag stuffed with magazine write-ups about Banks and notes to himself about his various attempts to reach her', according to the New York Post.
The 'stalker' has also reportedly visited Banks at her Los Angeles TV studios, prompting show producers to fear for the star's wellbeing.
"There's no security at this building. It's very scary," a studio source says.

Mucca raking
If you're gonna roll around in the mud, be prepared to get dirty. And I mean Christina Aguilera Diiirrty...
Take note Heather Mills.
I rubbed my hands with glee as I read this juicy headline the other day:
'Heather Mills' sex life is to be laid bare in a shocking new TV documentary'
Karma.
Word has it that Mucca's sordid past is about to be exposed (yes, even further) in a new doco entitled McCartney v McCartney: The Ex-Files.
According to my sources, the controversial show promises to 'delve deep into the former glamour model's life before her marriage to the Beatles legend'.
Love rats, colleagues and former friends were only too happy to crawl out of the woodwork and dish the dirty on Mucca, apparently.
The tell-all documentary is what executive producer Steve Anderson calls "the programme Sir Paul should have seen before he decided to get married".
Another source says: "Researchers have been digging into her past and have found some things she'll probably not be too happy to see again. She's tough and she's bounced back before. But she's worried this could lead to further problems for her in Britain."
Bang on.
Meanwhile...
I spotted this rather fabulous game inspired by Mucca's recent court appearance and the fact she poured water on Sir Paul McCartney's lawyer.
Inane, puerile and pointless - we love it!

See you in court
Things are going from bad to worse for the Hogan family.
A lawsuit has now been filed by the family of John Graziano.
You may recall that Graziano was critically injured after being in a car with Nick Hogan last year. It was reported that Hogan was recklessly driving and racing at the time.
Read all about it here.
Faux romance
Jeez Germaine - Hollywood is one fake fairground, kids.
The latest wicked whispers state that the rumoured repairing of Kate Hudson and Owen Wilson was all a big con.
Turns out that Hudson and Wilson laid on the love for the cameras to promote his new comedy flick Drillbit Taylor.
Word has it that Wilson wasn't up to doing any press promotion for the film, so opted for faking it with Hudson instead.
Call me cynical, but it seems like Wilson's people are protecting their investment and safeguarding him from any awkward press questions regarding his alleged suicide attempt last year.
And what way to generate media buzz than a revived romance?
Sadly, it didn't work - the film bombed at the box office, raking in a measly $10 million during its opening weekend.

Double take
Tiny Tom Cruise has a Doppelganger.
Every man and his dog has parodied Tiny Tom, but I've not seen anyone do it this well before.
Watch this clip of an actor mimicking one of Cruise's insane rants from new flick Superhero Movie.
Eerily accurate.
Like it never happened...
Pamela Anderson and Rick Salomon's short-lived marriage is over. OVAH.
TMZ.com reports that the Los Angeles County Superior Court declared the couple's five-month marriage as null and void on grounds of fraud this week.
Fraud? Details please. Sadly not. Did Salomon refuse to impregnate the boobie bimbo perhaps?
We'll never find out the truth...neither of them is willing to explain any further the fraud allegation. Spoil sports.
The pair tied the knot in Las Vegas on October 6 2007. It was the third marriage for each of them. It was doomed from the start. When will they ever learn?

Saint McDreamy
You know I heart him and will shamelessly plug his name left, right and centre.
Patrick Dempsey, Patrick Dempsey, Patrick Dempsey ...
Well, I now have a genuine reason to do so - on the back of a genuine news story.
The Grey's Anatomy star is putting those healing hands to work and helping to heal the afflicted.
Having watched his mother fight ovarian cancer, Dempsey has been inspired to help other cancer patients and their families struggling with the disease.
The actor has made a substantial donation to his home town in Maine, which has led to the rise of the Patrick Dempsey Center for Cancer Hope & Healing.
The star says: "Well, my mother is a three-time ovarian cancer survivor and this is a town in which I grew up in."
"It means a lot to me to return home and there was a real need for this and I think there is a lot of work that we can do here and I hope that we can make an impact on people's lives."
Paging Dr. McDreamy: please scrape me off the ceiling - stat.
I may recover in time for Friday's blog...

Youth robber
My mate Natalie Portman regrets that she didn't have a 'normal' childhood.
I'm not surprised to hear that. The lass has been acting for what feels like years already - she was probably acting in the womb!
"I do kind of feel that I lost part of my childhood," Natalie confessed.
"I was one of those kids that always wanted to be older, which I now think is a shame."
But she's making up for it all now.
"I try to make up for that now by being outdoors more, playing, being silly and not being afraid of that. I don't feel that I missed out on a normal life, but when I was a kid I wasn't out playing in the mud."

Benevolent bores
There's something creepy about singing siblings Daniel and Natasha Bedingfield.
They're charitable, if nothing else - but they do smack of strange.
Anyway, the pair has decided to raid their respective wardrobes and such - all in the name of charity.
They're now peddling their wares on eBay to raise cash for their charity, Global Angels.
Here's what they have on offer:
* A personalised ode to a winning bidder
* A pair of Daniel's Calvin Klein underpants (slightly-worn, but washed)
* A one-hour singing lesson with Daniel
* A dress Natasha wore when she met Prince William
* Natasha's baseball cap.
But the biggest charity case of all has to be the cringe worthy YouTube video the pair has crated to promote their philanthropy.
Oh, and here are Daniel's panties.
Li-Lo spits the dummy
Lindsay Lohan is not a happy bunny.
Still reeling from the scandal generated after an alleged sex tape starring herself and ex-boyfriend Calum Best leaked on the net, Li-Lo's a woman scorned.
Speculation as to whether the 'sex tape' is genuine and does in fact show the actress is still rife.
Several news outlets and celebrity news blogs claim that the sex tape is a fake, and that the woman performing a sex act on an unknown male in the video bares no resemblance to Lohan.
The jury is still out.
But how do you explain this little outburst from an irate Lohan who reportedly went ballistic at Best on the phone:
A source who overheard Li-Lo on the phone to her ex says she heard the actress screaming: "I can't believe you would ever f****** do this to me, I should have listened to everyone.
"I should never have f****** trusted you."
Update:
Latest whispers say that Lohan was not the star of the tape - the agile and orally talented chick in the flick is reportedly some dame from Illinois.
Stay tuned for updates...
