Lily Allen to star in TV show on her own life

Lily AllenSinger Lily Allen has signed up for a TV show that will chart her journey from pop singer to shopkeeper as she prepares to open a designer clothes-hire store with her sister.

Her last foray into TV was her BBC3 talk show ‘Lily Allen And Friends’.

Lindsay Lohan’s fashion adventure ends

Lindsay LohanHollywood actress Lindsay Lohan’s design career has ended after a single collection for Parisian label Emanuel Ungaro, leaving the fashion world divided over whether her work was a disaster or a much-needed bit of fun.

She failed to show up at the label’s show, leaving the owners groping for reasons.

"Lindsay is not involved in it," said Asim Abdullah, one of the owners.

Ungaro designer Estrella Archs, who worked with Lohan on last year’s widely panned show of butt-revealing dresses and strippers’ nip stickers, showed her second Ungaro collection on Monday. She said Lohan had no hand in it.

"You have up and downs and you learn a lot, more from the downs than from the ups," Archs told reporters backstage when asked about the dire reviews of last year’s show with Lohan, who acted as artistic adviser. Abdullah’s reason for Lindsay not showing up was in contradiction to the announcement six weeks back when the label said Lindsay would be at the helm.

Sandra Bullock to display Oscar trophy

Sandra BullockHollywood actress Sandra Bullock plans to display her Oscar and Golden Raspberry trophies side by side to remind her of the highs and lows of the movie industry.

"They’re going to sit side by side, as they should. You know we’re in the entertainment business. That’s what we’re supposed to do. You take the good with the not so good”, said Bullock.

"I had the best time at the Razzies. It is what it is and, you know, it probably means more that both of them (awards) happened at the same time because it’s the great equalizer. Nothing ever lets me get too full of myself. It quickly chops me off at the knees, and I like it that way because it keeps things stable.

"They’ll sit side by side in a nice little shelf somewhere; the Razzie maybe on a different shelf, lower."
