Lindsay Lohan offered $1 mn to host radio show

Lindsay LohanHollywood ctress Lindsay Lohan has been offered $1 million to host a show for a New York radio station with her mother Dina.

"We think that hosting a morning program would be the perfect gig for Lindsay," said a statement from JVC Broadcasting, the parent company of Party 105 as saying.

"If Lindsay wants to take some time off from Hollywood and spend some much-needed R&R with her family, but still needs to atone for her reported $600,000 in credit card debt, hosting Party 105`s morning show would be an ideal way for the starlet to reconnect with her fans."

The show would reportedly cover a range of topics from trendy fashion tips to entertainment news. There would also be an advice hotline for fans to call the mother and daughter team with questions.

A representative for JVC Broadcasting said financial documents and terms of agreement have been sent to Lindsay’s management team but it is not yet known she has accepted.

The "Mean Girls" actress was jailed last month for breaching her probation stemming from a 2007 DUI arrest.

Upon her release, after just 13 days, she was ordered to spend 90 days in rehab at the UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles. But Lohan was discharged from the rehab Tuesday.

The judge presiding over Lindsay’s probation has asked her to stay in Los Angeles until Nov 1.

Prachi Desai becomes face of tourist hot-spot Goa

Prachi DesaiPrachi Desai is yet to prove her acting finesse, but the actress sure knows how to connect with the masses. The lass, who is relatively new to Bollywood, has been chosen to promote Goa tourism thereby becoming the face of the holiday destination.

Already riding high on her the success of ‘Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai’, Desai’s latest feat has given her yet another reason to celebrate.

Talking about the Goa, Prachi said, "It’s an honour to be the face of the most popular tourist destination. I’ve been to Goa quite a few times and found out that there’s so much more to explore."

According to State Tourism Secretary MM Modassir said, "As we grow, we need to change strategies. While we are not diverting from promoting Goa as a family destination, we realise that almost 50% of India’s population is below the age of 25, and we are looking at targeting the affluent youth, who are a growing segment."

With Prachi promoting Goa, the state government is set to plunge into a campaign that will span mediums that include TV, press, online and retail activation. It also includes celebrity representation and will be directed at the domestic market.

Kelly Brook wants to be a man-eater

Kelly BrookModel-actress Kelly Brook wants to become a maneater like Samantha Jones from the ‘Sex and the City’.

The brunette beauty, who recently split from England rugby player Danny Cipriani after two years of dating, thinks she is more like the girlie Charlotte from the franchise, but is aiming to adopt a wild image and date lots of guys.

"Right now I’m all about having a good time. I recently went to the South of France with some girlfriends and we had a great time, it was just like ‘Sex and the City’. I’m Charlotte at the moment, but I’m aspiring to becoming Samantha," Brook said.

"I’m off to Ibiza soon. Is it going to be a messy trip? Well, if I turn into Samantha in time then you might see pictures of me falling out of the nightclubs," she added.

The 30-year-old model recently stripped off for Playboy magazine and admits she is now so comfortable with being unclothed that it "terrifies" her to wear clothes.

"I’m so used to it now that I’m more terrified of putting my clothes on. I haven’t got any huge body hang-ups. I’ve got to the age where I’ve accepted all flaws. I know I’m never going to be perfect," she said.

Earlier in the week, Brook was spotted wearing a sexy lingerie-style outfit for Playboy mansion party in Los Angeles.

The model and TV host was heading to an LA bash at Hugh Hefner’s Playboy mansion in her baby doll-style outfit.

Katrina KaifKatrina Kaif might have set 2012 as her deadline to tie the knot but the somber lass seems to be regretting the decision as of now.

The actress, who has always been tight-lipped about her personal life, is lamenting her candid announcement to settle down by the year 2012, as she is yet to find her Mr Right. Nevertheless, the lass has laid down ground rules for her potential Mr Perfect.

The actress was not only correct but also candid when she was recently questioned on whether she has time for love and marriage. “Of course, all girls do. I enjoy wealth. But I know that when I marry, it will be for love. God, I said that I will marry in 2012. I’ve always wanted to marry when I’m 28. But after I made that announcement, I have had niggling doubts on what happens if my grand plans don’t materialise. What’ll I do then?” said Katrina.

So what is she looking for in her Mr Right? “I will not tolerate infidelity”, says the actress, thereby emphasizing that she would expect absolute faithfulness from her Mr Right.

As of now, the actress is busy working on movies that include Farah Khan’s ‘Tees Maar Khan’ with Akshay Kumar, Zoya Akhtar’s ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara’ with Hrithik Roshan and Tarun Mansukhani’s ‘Dostana 2’.
