‘NY Mag’ Critic Manages Impossible Task of Compelling Sympathy For Harvey Weinstein

8:00AM Defamer Hollywood | Harvey Weinstein’s tough week didn’t get any easier today, with his Marley family squabbles and Star Wars-geek travails cycling back around this morning to the Anthony Minghella tragedy that started it all. Except that film critic David Edelstein had more than what you might call a moment of clarity in his New York Magazine blog entry slamming Harvey for the filmmaker’s artistic demise:

Lindsay Lohan No Longer Content Just Showing Us Her Nipples

3:30AM Molly Friedman | Lindsay Lohan has never been one to shy away from press, no matter how bad or embarrassing it may be. And following right on the heels of her controversial nip-baring photo shoot for New York Magazine, Lindsay’s apparently become so fond of showing off her T&A that she’s decided to arrange various photo shoots displaying each of her five tattoos. And though the tats’ placement aren’t, as far as we know, placed in the vicinity of body parts the revealing Marilyn Monroe-inspired shoot didn’t dare show, we wouldn’t be surprised if a nouveau tat representing some lame Chinese saying for sobriety appeared in the exhibit, premiering this Thursday in New York.

Lindsay Lohan Celebrates Sobriety By Dropping Trou For ‘NY Mag’

Just last week, we were celebrating Lindsay’s new Sober Face, but even we must admit that it pales in comparison to her new Sober Nipples. Which, we might add, are on full display (!) in two of the spread’s ten slides. As far as career rejuvenation stunts are concerned, we are predicting that this tastefully titillating homage to Marilyn Monroe’s “Last Sitting” is poised to sit alongside Drew Barrymore’s role in Poison Ivy in the pantheon of greatest breast-baring comebacks of all-time. A few of the tamer (but still NSFW!) selections follow after the jump; the rest can be found in this week’s edition of New York. You have been warned. More »
