Lindsay Lohan has reportedly started therapy for her issues, as ordered by the court — and just in time, as the deadline for the troubled actress to start treatment is later this week, according to E! Online. During a court appearance last month, Lohan had told the judge she was trying to find the cash to pay for therapy. In response, the judge told Lohan’s lawyer that the actress “needs to find an individual therapist that takes a credit card.”
In another blow to Amy Winehouse’s already upset family, unreleased tracks, lyrics and letters by the late singer have reportedly been stolen from her London home, according to Hollyscoop. "This is such a sickening shock to the family,” the source says. “The family, record label and management are months away from deciding what to do with any unreleased music. For that to be taken out of their hands is horrible." Winehouse’s father, Mitch Winehouse, is reportedly hoping the issue will resolve itself, though. "Mitch is willing to give whoever has stolen the items a chance to do the right thing and put them back so it doesn’t have to get messy," the source says.
“30 Rock” star Tina Fey and husband Jeff Richmond welcomed their second daughter last week, her rep confirms to Us Weekly. Penelope Athena was born August 10, joining her big sister, 5-year-old Alice. Fey wrote in her memoir, “Bossypants,” that she felt compelled to give Alice a sibling: "I thought that raising an only child would be the norm in Manhattan, but my daughter is the only child in her class without a sibling. Most kids have at least two," she wrote. "Who will be my daughter's family when my husband and I are dead from stress-induced cankers? She must have a sibling."
Mike Myers has signed a deal to star in a fourth “Austin Powers” movie, according to HitFix. There’s no word on whether Jay Roach, who directed the first three films, will be returning as well. Myers’ last live-action starring role was in 2008’s “the Love Guru,” which was a critical and commercial failure. He’s since kept a fairly low profile, lending his voice to a forth “Shrek” film and making a cameo in Quentin Tarantino’s “Inglourious Basterds.” Myers married girlfriend Kelly Tisdale last year and recently announced that they’re expecting their first child later this year.
Rumors about Maddox Jolie-Pitt going into the family business are a bit premature, it turns out. Speculation was sparked last week that the 10-year-old would be making his film debut in “Battling Boy,” an action movie Brad Pitt’s company is producing, but sources tell Just Jared the rumors are simply “not true.”
Patrick Schwarzenegger, the oldest son of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, is making a splash with his debut as a model for Hudson Jeans. The 17-year-old appears shirtless and reclining in a billboard looming over Sunset Boulevard in Hollywood, according to People magazine. The teenager also already has his own clothing line, Project360, started with two friends in 2009, which uses its products to raise money for a number of charities.
