Lindsay Lohan didn't do herself any favors on Friday (October 16) when she showed up more than an hour late to a probation hearing in Beverly Hills. Lohan was in court for a progress review on her two DUI cases, and after hearing an explanation from the actress' lawyer about why she had failed to complete the required alcohol education classes as required by her existing three-year probation, the judge tacked another year on.

The troubled actress, 23, described as solemn and gaunt, wearing a white sport coat over a white long-sleeve shirt and black pants, held attorney Shawn Chapman Holley's hand as they walked into the courtroom, according to People.com. Judge Marsha N. Revel asked for an explanation of why she had been getting notices that Lohan might be in violation of the terms of her probation.

Holley explained that there had been a miscommunication when Lohan failed to notify instructors at an alcohol management class that she would be returning after she completed some work outside the U.S. Revel told Holley that Lohan must get prior court approval the next time she leaves Los Angeles for work and warned that a failure to comply strictly with the conditions in the future could lead to jail time. Lohan was sentenced to three years' probation after her second DUI conviction in August 2007.

"I ordered you into court today because I wanted to speak to you directly," Revel told Lohan, according to People.com. "I don't want to get any more notices again, no warrants ... where you're thumbing your nose at the court." Despite her tough words, the judge added, "I'm rooting for you to successfully complete probation."

E! News reported that the judge also clarified that the actress, who was recently in Paris for a panned debut of her Ungaro fashion line, must ask for the temporary permission to leave for legitimate purposes, not "to go shopping ... not to go vacationing."

Holley explained that Lohan has been busy filming a movie in Texas, working on a documentary about child trafficking in India for the BBC, recording an album and working on her fashion line.

"This is the last time we will be talking about re-enrolling," the judge said. "Anytime you request a leave of absence for more than 21 days, you must get court approval. If you don't do that, the deputy district attorney will be asking for jail time."

TMZ added that Lohan has attended only 15 of 26 individual alcohol education classes, 13 of 26 group classes and 13 of 28 self-help sessions required by her probation.

Lohan did not speak in court except to say "yes" when the judge asked if she understood the proceedings. A December 15 date was set for a progress hearing.

While Michael Jackson was being buried in a lavish ceremony across town, friends, family and fans paid a final tribute to DJ AM (born Adam Goldstein) on Thursday night at the Hollywood Palladium, less than one week after the popular celebrity DJ was found dead in his New York apartment of an apparent drug overdose.

According to People, hundreds of invited guests and fans turned out to remember AM, 36, who was buried on Wednesday, among them former fiancée Nicole Richie and friends Lindsay Lohan, Samantha Ronson, Eric Dane, Rebecca Gayheart and Robert Downey Jr. E! Online reported that the VIPs also included Dr. Drew Pinsky, Tom Arnold, Jon Favreau and Sugar Ray singer Mark McGrath.

"He was my soulmate and now he is my soul," girlfriend Hayley Wood said during the two-and-a-half-hour memorial. "He is my amazing grace."

	Celebs, Fans Attend DJ AM's Memorial

Because of the anonymity requested by organizers to honor the structure of a 12-step meeting, no press was allowed into the event, and few details have emerged about what was said inside.

Radar Online reported that the 3,500 attendees also included John Mayer and that the event was organized by Hollywood club promoter Brent Bolthouse. While fans reportedly scrambled to get a seat in the venue, an eyewitness described the crowd as "very hip and eclectic," with some in T-shirts and jeans and others in black suits. "It was packed, though. You could tell how well loved he was," the witness told the site. "It was a very somber and sad crowd."

The Palladium was a fitting place for AM's final memorial, as it was the first venue he performed in following the South Carolina plane crash he and Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker survived last September.

The New York City medical examiner's office has not yet determined a cause of death and is conducting further toxicology tests, but there were several reports from unnamed sources earlier this week that AM had more than half a dozen undigested OxyContin pills in his stomach and one in his mouth when police found him face down on his bed in his barricaded Soho apartment.

Lindsay Lohan and her fashion-line partner are set to start their own production company called Unforgettable Prods, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

Kristi Kaylor, who runs Lohan's 6126 clothing line, and the actress plan to expand their empire with Unforgettable Prods. According to the report, they're developing several projects including a TV show called "Faux Real," described as " 'Entourage' for the fashion world.

The team is also looking to get into the dating-show game with a show called "That's What Friends Are For." They are also looking working with a charity to produce a "docu-cause" series and trying to option a couple of books for TV and film projects.

"We're taking a 360-degree approach," Kaylor told THR, noting that they plan on integrating digital media into the brand. "Lindsay is 23 years old, and she's so plugged in to mobile media."

It was recently rumored that Lohan — whose latest flick, "Labor Pains," debuts on Lifetime later this month — passed up the role of Jade the stripper, eventually played by Heather Graham, in "The Hangover." According to Us Weekly, Lohan passed up the role thinking the script "had no potential," despite her agent's campaign to get her cast.

"The agent tried hard to get ['Hangover' director Todd] Phillips to consider her," a source said. "And when he finally agreed, Lindsay said she didn't like the script!"

Lindsay Lohan is getting her own reality show. But if fans of the "Mean Girls" star think that they will get an intimate look into la vida Lohan, they'd better think again.

The show, TMZ reports, will be an inspirational reality show where $1 million is given away to a person who is looking to turn their life around after going down the wrong path. That person will be judged by a panel, and it's rumored that Lohan will possibly appear as a judge on the show.

Seacrest Tweeted about the concept, ssaying, "Met with Lindsay last night about a show idea I have for her ... it helps people and gives others a second shot! Still putting it all together."

Meanwhile, Lohan also took to her Twitter to announce the tentative plans of working with Seacrest on the show. "Working on a really great project for television - I am excited!" she said. "Something meaningful like Extreme Home Makeover on ABC."

Keeping with the inspirational theme of the show, she also Tweeted, "I am so blessed [and] because I am I want to make the world a better place." Reps for both Seacrest and Lohan had not gotten back to MTV News by press time.

Earlier this year, Lohan had been quite vocal about how hard it's been for her to find work thanks to her constant presence in the tabloids. "There's not much I can do about the fact that I've become a kind of tabloid obsession," she said. "I can't change that. And yes, the Web sites, the gossip pages, and all of that stuff have hurt my career — they're like the Burn Books of Hollywood."

Scotland Yard investigators may be interested in speaking to Lindsay Lohan about $411,000 in missing jewelry that Elle U.K. claims disappeared after they were loaned to the actress for a photo shoot on June 6.

According to reports, Dior lent Lohan, 22, a diamond necklace and matching earrings, which she modeled for a photo shoot for the magazine, and the items were reported missing two days later.

Speaking to People magazine, a rep for Lohan said, "We inquired and everyone from the shoot is being questioned ... hair, make-up, stylist ... even photographers. Lindsay hopes they find the jewels. She is happy to cooperate."

A spokesperson for Elle U.K. released a statement confirming that the items went missing from the shoot and the matter is being investigated by police, but emphazing that the magazine is not pointing fingers at Lohan. "Elle has no reason to believe that Lindsay Lohan was in any way responsible and has no further comment to make," the statement says.

A police source told People that they are investigating the alleged theft of the jewels from studios on Brewery Road in London.

"Inquiries are continuing and no arrests have been made," the police source reportedly said. "As far as who we will be interviewing — we will be speaking to a number of people in connection with the inquiry and don't discuss the identity of the people we are planning to interview."

When an alarm was tripped at Lindsay Lohans home near Los Angeles on Tuesday, police initially thought that someone had broken in. The actress' home appeared to have been ransacked.

But The Associated Press reports that after investigating the alleged break-in, the police realized that the mess wasn't made by burglars but rather the actress herself.

According to the AP, police were notified by Lohan's security company that someone tripped an alarm at the house in Hollywood around 3 p.m. When police arrived they determined that nothing had been stolen. Los Angeles police Officer Karen Rayner said the messy state of the house prompted officers to ask, "Is it normally like this, or did the intruders do it?"

"It was an attempted burglary. No property was taken and no one was home at the time of the incident," Rayner added, according to E! Online. An unnamed source told the site that a man who is said to have been stalking and making threats against the actress is a "person of interest" in the case and that the intruder apparently used a knife to break in.

On Wednesday (May 13), Lohan was spotted in France with her sister, Ali. The pair were seen dancing and hanging out on the balcony of their Paris hotel room, while a PETA protest was held on the street below, according to Web site Celebrity Gossip.

The "Mean Girls" star has made multiple tabloid headlines this year between breaking up with DJ Samantha Ronson, begging for more acting work and allegedly getting snubbed by Seth Rogen, a claim the actor denies. Lohan's latest movie, "Labor Pains," will premiere this summer on ABC Family.

By now, you've probably seen Lindsay Lohan's (rather brilliant) send-up of eHarmony's online personals, which was posted late Monday on FunnyOrDie.com.

In the clip, Lohan claims she's "looking for someone who I can spend the rest of my life with — or at least my probation with" and pokes fun at her oft-covered love life, run-ins with the law, and rather prodigious partying, laughing that she's "a workaholic, a shopaholic and, according to the state of California, an alcoholic."

The clip has been viewed more than 825,000 times in less than 24 hours, making it not only a smart career move for Lohan, but a certified Internet sensation. Again, you probably already know this. But what you don't know is how the video came to be.

"Lindsay had decided she wanted to do something, so she got in touch with Will Ferrell's agent, and the first call I got was last Wednesday night," Mike Farah, who co-produced the video for Funny or Die, told MTV News. "We were obviously super-excited to work with her, so we kicked around some ideas on Thursday, wrote the script Friday, shot the video on Saturday and then posted it — it was that quick. And Lindsay was a total pro."

Farah said Lohan was "totally game" to tackle the rumors about her life, and that there wasn't anything she shied away from. She even ad-libbed a few lines that ended up making the final cut.

"She was really willing to go there and added her own lines. The joke about 'car chases on the PCH,' the line about 'never losing her Google hits, just her underwear,' that was all her," Farah laughed. "She really thought this would be a perfect platform to take back her story, to be funny and self-deprecating. Like the saying goes: If you don't tell your own story, someone else will."

And judging from the online response, fans are loving Lohan's version of her story, making the video a win for her and Funny or Die. That means the next time a celebrity is in need of some career rehab, perhaps they'll reach out to the Web site for help, and Farah is aware of that fact.

"We could almost do one of these things a week. Anyone who's in the news and wants to take back their story could be reaching out to us," he laughed. "We're not going to force anything, but if it's the right idea, and the right person, who knows?"

Lindsay Lohan is single and looking to mingle.

Having split with girlfriend Samantha Ronson, the actress/ professional paparazzi target is "searching for love" — on dating Web site eHarmony.com of all places.

"I'm looking for someone who I can spend the rest of my life with — or at least the rest of my probation with," Lohan says in her just-posted video personal. "I'm an actress, a singer, an entrepreneur, and I have single-handedly kept 90 percent of all gossip Web sites in business. ... I'm a workaholic, a shopaholic and, according to the state of California, an alcoholic, as well as a threat to all security guards if they work at hotels. And to put all those rumors to rest, I am not broke. I actually have over $400 in the bank and 20,000 Marlboro Miles, which I'm very proud of."

Lohan is looking for a guy or gal "who likes a night out on the town (as long as he or she is driving), ankle monitoring bracelets and doesn't have family members quick to issue restraining orders," and she describes her dream date as "long walks on the beach, car chases on the PCH, antiquing and passing out in Cadillac Escalades."

She finishes the video by saying, "So if you think you can handle a redhead with a little bit of sass — and by that, I mean, a redhead that's crazy ... we'll crash a few parties, a car or two, but at the end of the day, I promise you I never lose my Google hits ... just my underwear."

It's a pretty honest assessment ... and it's also a complete joke (sorry, ladies and gents). Lohan filmed the mock personal for online humor site FunnyOrDie.com in an attempt to poke fun at her reputation as a borderline crazy, hard-partying train wreck, and so far, it seems everyone is laughing with her. The clip was first posted on the site late Monday afternoon and has already been viewed more than 212,000 times ... even earning (sorta) praise from noted Lohan basher Perez Hilton, who linked to the video on his site and added, "What's an out-of-work, famewhoring actress to do? Make a video!"

OK, so maybe not everyone is in on the joke.

Lindsay Lohan was seen Wednesday night getting herself a new tattoo after news broke earlier this week that she and her DJ girlfriend, Samantha Ronson, broke up.

The actress was seen smiling when she arrived at the Shamrock Social Club tattoo parlor in Los Angeles at around midnight. Her teenage sister, Ali, was by her side. It's the same tattoo parlor where Lohan and her pal, Lily Allen, got "Shhhh" finger tattoos, according to UsMagazine.com.

The site also reported that Lohan got the new ink on her wrist. There's no word on what Lohan got tattooed, but the pair reportedly left at around 3 a.m. In addition to the ink, Lohan was also seen on at Byron & Tracey Salon in Beverly Hills dying her hair back to red.

Before she made her way over to the tattoo parlor, Lohan, Ali and their mom Dina were seen dining at Nobu. Sources tell the magazine that the "wafer-thin" Lohan appeared "stressed out and anxious but didn't drink any alcohol, instead opting for a few edamame and bites of a cucumber salad."

Sources added that before the Lohans left, "The Hills" star Frankie Delgado, who recently denied he was flirting with Rihanna, was seen flirting with Lohan, but she "seemed uninterested as Delgado attempted to give her an awkward smooch on the cheek. He ended up kissing her hair instead."

On Wednesday, E! News crews caught up with Sam Ronson, who flatly denied reports that she is seeking a restraining order against Lohan, telling them that there is "no truth to that."

Despite rumors that Samantha Ronson and her family were seeking a restraining order against Lindsay Lohan following the couple's recent breakup, a lawyer for the family says that is not true.

"Samantha has no plan to request a restraining order," attorney David Bass told People after a Beverly Hills police officer confirmed that the Ronson family had inquired about how to obtain one. "There is no basis for one."

A source close to Ronson told the magazine that there is no reason why she'd be looking to keep Lohan away after their breakup. "Sam does not want a restraining order against Lindsay Lohan," the source said. "Sam had nothing to do with the restraining order against Lindsay that the police are talking about."

The source continued that despite no longer being together, Ronson doesn't think that Lohan is a threat. "Sam and Lindsay are broken up, but Sam does not feel she's in any danger whatsoever," the source said. "She thinks the whole thing is absurd."

On Tuesday, it was reported that Ronson's mother and sister had talked to police in Beverly Hills to find out how they could get a restraining order against Lohan.

"They were directed to the court to get a restraining order," Beverly Hills Sgt. Nutall told UsMagazine.com. At the time he wouldn't confirm that the inquiry was about Lohan, and now sources are denying that the order was for the actress.

Another source tells People that even after the breakup, the two "are totally communicating."
