Lindsay Lohan's Ankle Monitoring Bracelet Sounds Alarm

Although it wouldn't surprise us if Lindsay Lohan was testing her house arrest boundaries, the locked down actress' ankle monitoring bracelet went off due to a fluke with the equipment. Lohan's

ankle bracelet sounded an alarm on Monday, prompting authorities, who believed Lohan had left her specified premises, to arrive at her Venice, California home, according to TMZ.

But upon their arrival, probation officers found a casual Lohan tanning and reading scripts on her roof. A source told TMZ that the device may have "missed a signal" prompting the monitoring bracelet to give off a false alarm. Lohan was then fitted with a new device.

With more than a few people just waiting for Lohan to misstep (literally), the star of the forthcoming 'Gotti: Three Generations' biopic would be wise to stay well within her boundaries.

Lindsay Lohan Begins House Arrest Today

We hope Lindsay Lohan is comfortable in her crib because she's going to be spending a lot more time there, starting today. Earlier this morning, Lohan arrived at the Lynwood Jail before returning

to her Venice, California home to begin her house arrest sentence, according to People.

"She is now confined to the interior premises of her home at all times," LA Sheriff's spokesman, Steve Whitmore, told People.

To keep Lohan in check, officers fitted the 24-year-old starlet with an electronic ankle monitoring bracelet that will not allow Lohan to leave her premises.

Although Lohan was originally sentenced to four months in jail after pleading no contest to the theft of a $2,500 necklace, it was decided that she would serve her sentence in the comfort of her own home due to facility overcrowding.

People also reports that Lohan could spend as little as two weeks on house arrest if she displays good behavior -- an option made possible due to the city's budget restraints. But she won't get off that easy, Lohan still must complete her 480 ordered hours of community service which she'll split between a downtown LA women's shelter and the county morgue.

Lohan's house arrest sounds more like a relaxing stay-cation to us. And hey, if she gets lonely, she can always throw a house party.

Lindsay Lohan Still Peeved With Paris Hilton

Lindsay Lohan is still simmering over former friend Paris Hilton's nasty swipe at her in the promo for her new show 'The World According to Paris.'

The preview showed Hilton giving a pair of earrings to a homeless woman. When the woman mistook Paris for Lindsay, Paris replied, "If I were Lindsay, I'd be stealing the earrings, and not giving them away." Meowch!

"Lindsay is really trying to change her life for the better. This proves Paris will never change. She's always going to be mean and spiteful to other women," a pal of Lindsay's tells PopEater.

Paris has a long history of burning her female friendships starting with the one that brought her reality television fame on 'The Simple Life' with Nicole Richie.

Hilton's new show is meant to reposition her brand to show that she is more than the vapid hard partying celebutante with a bad attitude. The trailers are filled with a gaggle of less attractive but seemingly supportive girlfriends who hang on Hilton's every word.

It doesn't look like too much has changed save for Hilton's friends becoming more average. And her jokes about Lohan prove she hasn't morphed into a nice person overnight.

"Really Paris had to make a wisecracks about Lindsay in a homeless shelter? It just shows how insecure she is," the pal told us.

Lindsay is no stranger to barbs being tossed her way and she doesn't typically have the thickest skin when she is the object of ridicule. Earlier this year she was upset when she was the butt of Gwyneth Paltrow's jokes on 'Glee.'

But the struggling actress does know that putting herself back in the spotlight with the upcoming Gotti biopic will open her up to criticism. Still, she didn't expect it out of the mouth of a former friend.

"If the rest of the show is all Paris bashing people this thing is going to have a short shelf life." another friend of both Paris and Lindsay's tells PopEater.

"We've all seen her act like a jerk. She needs to give us something new."

Photo : Lindsay Lohan Gets Bloody on a Backstreet Wall

Lindsay Lohan will be a daily fixture in AJ McLean's new house. The Backstreet Boy was one of the many famous faces at Tyler Shields' gallery opening this weekend, not only enjoying the show

but shopping for art for celebrity-themed his new house with his fiancée Rochelle Karidis.

"We were trying to figure out which one I wanted to get because we bought a new house," McLean told PopEater, when asked what his favorite shoot in the show was. "It's actually the one I just bought of Lindsay [Lohan] because my fiancee worked on her make up on that shoot."

Check out more details on the photo and more of what McLean had to say below!

The photograph in question is one of a series of vampire-themed shots with Lohan at the center. McLean's house will display a shot where Lohan appears bloody, stabbing 'Vampire Diaries' star, Michael Trevino. The shot is just a taste of Shields style, which McLean likened to legendary photographers.

"He's an absolute genius, in my honest opinion," McLean told us. "If you were to put Herb Ritz and Andy Warhol together, that' who Tyler is."

McLean himself has been the subject of a Shields shoot, featured in a video portrait with Mad Men star Michael Gladis, where he inadvertently stabbed Gladis with a knife.

Paris Hilton: I Give Things Away, Lindsay Steals Them

Although we're not sure that Paris Hilton can really talk when it comes to Lindsay Lohan's track record (the heiress has also taken a mugshot or two), in the promo released for her new reality gig,

'The World According to Paris,' she dishes out meals for the homeless and a major diss for Lohan.

In the promo video (via E! Online), Hilton pats herself on the back saying, "feeding the homeless is not actually part of my community service. I do it because I love to give back and help out whenever I can."

But not long after her shameless gloating, a homeless woman she is serving asks the heiress for her earrings. Being the model citizen she is, Hilton obliges but not before the woman says that she plans on re-gifting the jewelry to her sister, courtesy of "Lindsay [Lohan]."

But Hilton doesn't let the slip-up slide: "I'm not Lindsay. If I were Lindsay I'd be stealing the earrings, not giving them away."

But now Hilton is re-thinking her original diss.

"I apologize to Lindsay for the comment that I made," she told TMZ. "I was joking around but it was thoughtless and unnecessary."

"Thoughtless and unnecessary," that sounds more like our girl, Hilton.

Lindsay Lohan Talks Legal Woes, Future on 'Tonight Show' VIDEO

With an appeal in the works on a sentence that would see her spend 120 days in prison, Lindsay Lohan went on 'The Tonight Show' to talk about the woes that have plagued her since her late

teenage years and her desire to get her life back on track.

"I've made a lot of poor decisions in the past and I'm dealing with the consequences of those decisions," she said. "I know that I have to work to gain the respect back and I'm willing to do the work that I have to do to follow through with being an actress because that's what I love."

When asked what she would change about herself, she turned it around and said she'd rather change the public perception of her. She would much rather it be about her work than her personal troubles. She did admit, "I've put myself in positions where that was the bigger story.

It looks like the looming jail sentence has definitely sobered the 24-year old. We hope she can maintain this healthier mindset and move her career and life in the direction she wants. We'd much rather watch her six years from now talking to Jay Leno about having just won an Oscar than some of the possible alternatives if she slides down the wrong path again.

Lindsay Lohan Tapes 'Tonight Show' Appearance, Receives Standing Ovation

Lindsay Lohan stopped by 'The Tonight Show with Jay Leno' Monday to tape her first appearance since being sentenced to jail and received a surprisingly warm welcome from the crowd.

According to RadarOnline.com, the studio audience was apparently thrilled that Lohan stopped by to chat, rising to their feet to cheer when she entered. Those hoping to catch Broadway star Kristin Chenoweth will have to wait -- her appearance was bumped due to Lohan's last-minute sit-down.

Lohan reportedly told Leno that her recent 120-day jail sentence for probation violation was "shocking" and that the sentence "left her numb."

Besides sharing her feelings on her legal woes, Lohan confirmed the news that she will join the cast of 'Gotti: The Generations.'

The actress is currently out on $75,000 bail while she appeals the sentence, which also includes a hefty amount of community service. Lohan is due back in court June 3 for her jewelry theft trial, with a pretrial date set for May 11.

Lindsay Lohan Posts Bail, Leaves Jail

Once a bondsman put up $75,000 in bail to free Lindsay Lohan on Friday night, TMZ reports that the actress walked out of Lynwood Correctional Facility after almost five hours in custody.

The actress, 24, was sentenced earlier in the day to 120 days in jail, plus 480 hours of community service for probation violation (stemming from a 2007 DUI). In January, Lohan had just completed three months of court-ordered rehab when she allegedly walked out of a jewelry store with a pricey necklace, leading to a theft accusation and her latest legal drama.

The judge on Friday reduced Lohan's felony charge to a misdemeanor, but ordered her immediately into custody and set a trial date. The court was reportedly swayed by surveillance video, which allegedly shows a friend of Lohan's acting as a decoy to distract a boutique owner, while the actress slips on a necklace. Lohan has insisted she had permission to borrow the bling, and has blamed a forgetful stylist for neglecting to return it promptly.

Lohan left the detention facility after sundown on Friday in a black SUV, with a sheriff's vehicle escorting hers off the premises. She's due in court May 11 for a pretrial hearing (back in February, Lohan declined a plea bargain, spurring her judge to warn "this case involves jail time"). Her booking in Lynwood is reportedly the fifth time she's been processed and released there.

The community service portion of Lohan's latest sentence requires her to spend 360 hours at the Downtown Women's Center (so she can "see how needy women have to live," according to TMZ) and another 120 hours at the Los Angeles County morgue.

Lindsay Lohan Confirmed for Role in 'Gotti' Film

It's (finally) official: Lindsay Lohan will appear in the upcoming 'Gotti: Three Generations' movie. After days of conflicting reports, UsMagazine.com confirmed on Wednesday that the actress will

play mafia man John Gotti Jr.'s wife, Kim Gotti, in a two-movie deal. In addition to 'Gotti,' Lohan will also appear in 'Mob Story.'

"We're very pleased to have Lindsay on-board for both of these films," executive producer Marc Fiore said in a statement to UsMagazine. "She has been very enthusiastic about the Gotti project, and after resuming discussions with her, we were impressed by her commitment to the film and felt she would be a perfect Kim Gotti."

Lohan was previously in discussions to play Victoria Gotti, but talks eventually broke down between her management team and the producers. Fiore even announced earlier in the day that negotiations with Lohan had ended and she would not be appearing in the film.

But Lohan patched things up and officially joined the cast. "I'm really excited to be back on set and clear up all the misinterpretations about me and show this is what I love to do," Lohan told the Associated Press. "I think it's such an iconic story. I'm honored to be working with John Travolta and Joe Pesci."

Lindsay Lohan Eying Two Movie Deals

As Lindsay Lohan awaits trial on a felony theft charge, she has something positive to look forward to in the near future: two possible movie deals.

According to RadarOnline.com, Hollywood producer Marc Fiore has Lohan in mind for two upcoming movies, one of which is the much-rumored 'Gotti' biopic.

"I want Lindsay to be in 'Gotti' and another movie that I'm producing," said Fiore, who serves as executive producer for 'Gotti: Three Generations.' "She's a great, great actress."

Lohan seems very interested in the role of Victoria Gotti, and even showed up to pose with the real mob daughter at a press event earlier this month.

The second role Fiore would like to see Lohan in is 'Mob Street,' a Wall Street-centered mafia flick written by 'The Usual Suspects' star Chazz Palminteri.

Though the actress has become known more for her legal escapades than her acting, Fiore said he's only seen the responsible side of Lohan in his dealings with her.

"She's been very professional with me," he said. "People make mistakes. Look at so many other people in Hollywood."

Lohan's first preliminary hearing in her theft case is scheduled for April 22, but according to Radar, the actress is trying to get the hearing postponed in order to observe the Good Friday holiday.
