Vampire Diaries season 5 Katherine to get hunted by past enemies & more,new spoilers. Recently,TV Line got their turn to shake some new Vampire Diaries season 5 spoilers out of Executive Producer, Julie Plec,and they did a great job too as we learned that Katherine is really going to start paying for all the crazy crap she pulled as a vampire when she gets hunted down by past enemies, and much,much more. To jump start things, Julie revealed that Silas will still be trying to work out his original plans even though the vampire cure is out of play,stating, "I can say that he’ll definitely be coming back to town when we get back into the next season. His agenda has always been to cure himself, to get rid of the other side so that he could then die and pass over and find peace. That will remain his agenda. »

Does Lindsay Lohan Have Bad Juju?
15 May 2013 1:02 PM, PDT | Huffington Post | See recent Huffington Post news »
Lindsay Lohan wasn't always in and out of rehab. The former child star turned troubled actress was beloved in the late 1990s and early 2000s, starring in feel-good films like "The Parent Trap," "Life-Size," "Freaky Friday" and "Mean Girls."
But lately -- between DUIs, drug problems and run-ins with the law -- LiLo's path has taken her in the wrong direction and she's two weeks into her 90-day lockdown treatment program.
Still, we can't help but notice all the other young stars who've struggled in the past -- or more so we can't help but notice that they All hung out and/or posed for photos with Lohan once in their life. (According to our celebrity rehab formula, taking pictures with LiLo can lead to trouble).
So does Lindsay Lohan have bad juju? We can only speculate.

Lindsay Lohan gives interview to Piers Morgan: 'I've never been a huge drinker'
6 May 2013 10:13 AM, PDT | EW.com - PopWatch | See recent EW.com - PopWatch news »
Lindsay Lohan has a few more confessions from a broken heart.
Before — finally – checking herself into court-mandated rehab for 90 days, Lindsay Lohan sat down with Piers Morgan for a Q&A just published in the U.K.’s Daily Mail. There’s nothing fans or critics haven’t heard before about how or why her life got so off track (she hits on sad but well-worn topics such as her dad selling a recording of her complaining about her mom, the stolen necklace she says was a misunderstanding, and how everyone — even court judges — “believe the rumors”), but it is »

On Thursday’s Grey’s Anatomy, Jo reaches out to Alex in hopes of burying the hatchet – or would that be the scalpel in their case? But instead of making peace, the duo once again amp up the “Will they, or will they?” tension by loudly agreeing to stay out of one another’s lives. Mind you, that’s before the unthinkable happens…

Singer-Actress Deanna Durbin Dead at 91
30 April 2013 6:53 PM, PDT | Variety - Film News | See recent Variety - Film News news »
Singer-actress Deanna Durbin, who was the highest-paid female star in Hollywood in 1947 but permanently exited the movie biz the next year at the age of 26, has died, her fan club announced Tuesday. The announcement did not give a date or cause of death. She was 91.
Durbin initially landed at MGM after a successful audition for a part in a planned biopic of opera singer Ernestine Schumann-Heink. She actually made her film debut in the 1936 MGM short “Every Sunday,” with Judy Garland (the two were only six months apart in age), and the opera film was never made. Soon thereafter Universal signed Durbin to a contract.
Her first film at U was “Three Smart Girls” (remade decades later as “The Parent Trap”). That big box office hit, in which she played the perfect teenage daughter, paved the way for many more of the same, and Durbin was credited with saving the studio from bankruptcy. »

Questions and Answers From Tribeca: Zoe Kazan
25 April 2013 8:16 AM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
There's plenty of Zoe Kazan to go around, petite though the actress may be. There's enough of her, in fact, to play two roles — three, depending on who you ask — in "The Pretty One," which premiered at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival in New York City. Kazan pulls a Lohan, playing both halves of a set of identical twins, then the role of Sister A pretending to be Sister B after Sister B dies and Sister A is mistaken for her. (It's complicated.)
While buzz for "The Pretty One" is just beginning, Kazan is no stranger to critical praise: Just last year, she turned in a phenomenal lead performance opposite real-life boyfriend Paul Dano in "Ruby Sparks," which she also happened to write.
NextMovie caught up with the 29-year-old actress in New York before the premiere of "The Pretty One" and chatted on siblings, bagels and the mystical Lindsay Lohan.

Lindsay Lohan's tears mark the start of another bid to clean up and come back
13 April 2013 4:13 PM, PDT | The Guardian - Film News | See recent The Guardian - Film News news »
The troubled star earned praise for a frank Letterman TV interview, but still faces a long journey to salvage her professional reputation
As comebacks go, it was more a case of the tentative first steps than a purposeful stride into the future. But troubled Lindsay Lohan may at last be embarking on a journey to salvage her career.
Once hailed as one of the finest young actresses of her generation, the 26-year-old Lohan has seen her life swamped by allegations of drug use, excessive drinking, film flops and repeated trips in and out of rehab and the Us judicial system.
She has become a salient lesson to many observers of just how badly wrong a Hollywood career can go, and of the high price modern American fame can demand of the most vulnerable celebrities. But last week saw that rarest of things in Lohan's recent career: positive headlines.

The successful career paths of 7 Hollywood child stars
2 April 2013 2:47 AM, PDT | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »
Odd List Np Horton 3 Apr 2013 - 05:30
With the arrival of Spring Breakers imminent, Nick looks at seven former child stars who've gone on to enjoy film careers as grown-ups...
Making a name for yourself while young is definitely an appealing way to get into the acting business, for pushy parents and wannabe stars alike. The pros are obvious – fame and fortune at a young age, established links with the industry, and an early chance to make your mark. But for many, being a child star is the only thing they know, and once adulthood comes around, there goes the career.
Options can become limited once you’ve gone past your cute sell by date (just ask Macaulay Culkin), so is it any wonder that Vanessa Hudgens, Selena Gomez and Ashley Benson have decided to explode their child star image by starring in boundary pushing and very adult Spring Breakers? »

New Nancy Meyers Movie On The Way Penned By 'The Spectacular Now' Screenwriters
13 March 2013 1:22 PM, PDT | The Playlist | See recent The Playlist news »
Fans of feel-good movies owe a lot to screenwriter and director Nancy Meyers. Her string of heart-warmers stretches from “The Parent Trap” and “Father of the Bride” all the way back to “Private Benjamin”, which won her a Writers Guild Award and earned her only Oscar nomination to date. This week, Deadline reports that after a four-year hiatus following the romance-of-a-certain-age hit, “It’s Complicated," Meyers has signed with Sony Pictures Entertainment to direct a new film, co-produced with Matt Tolmach. The project, which remains as yet untitled, will be set in the UK with an all-British cast, with the exception of an American female lead, whose “life gets turned upside-down when she begins dating a very unlikely young man”. The screenplay, originally by "The Spectacular Now" writers Scott Neustadter and Michael Weber, has been re-written by romance-aficionado Meyers. Doug Belgrad, president of Columbia Pictures, gave a typically partisan nod to the deal: “We. »

Rumor We Hate: Michael Lohan Says Lindsay Gets Pimped Out To “Date” Old Rich Dudes For Cash
16 January 2013 7:48 AM, PST | TheFabLife - Movies | See recent TheFabLife - Movies news »
Well this just makes us want to burst into tears and watch The Parent Trap over and over in mourning for the pair of adorable little wise-crackin’ red-headed girls. Why, you ask? Because that pair of red-headed girls has grown up to become a single red-headed train-wreck called Lindsay Lohan, who is now reduced to being a high-priced escort. At least that’s if you believe her dad Michael, who has taken his bold claims to Star Magazine.
“She is getting paid to date rich men,” says the always quotable Mike. “Dina [her mother] is pimping her out – it’s disgusting!” The article goes on the quote another source with “insider” knowledge on all things Lohan. ”The dates last for days, and the guys pay for everything -hotel, travel costs, food, whatever- as well as jewelry and other gifts.” Some of the evidence does seem pretty damming. The financially strapped actress did »
