Lindsay Lohan is being sued by a paparazzi photographer who claims he was injured when her driver ran him over outside of the Hotel Cafe in Hollywood back in January of 2010.

Grigor Balyan filed the lawsuit today in Los Angeles Superior Court against Lohan and her driver, Paola Demara, along with management company Tri Star Sports and Entertainment. He claims the defendants "so negligently, carelessly, and recklessly operated, maintained, repaired, owned, and controlled their automobile so as to cause an accident which resulted in personal injuries and property damage to Plaintiff."

Demara was driving a BMW 650, and after allegedly hitting Balyan (injuring his hand and wrist), he sped off. Paramedics were called to the scene and Balyan filed a police report shortly thereafter.

Robert Kardashian's ex-wife Jan Ashley claims in a new interview with Star Magazine that Khloe is NOT the late attorney's daughter!

"Khloe is not his kid -- he told me that after we got married," Jan told the magazine. "He just kind of looked at me and said [it] like it was a matter of fact. He said, 'Well, you know that Khloe's not really a Kardashian, don't you?' And I said, 'OK,' and that was it."

And she's not the only one! Apparently Ellen Kardashian, who married Robert after he separated from Jan, has also come forward to talk about the Kardashian family's secret in the new issue of the gossip glossy.

Khloe has not yet issued a denial about the report, but she did respond to the news on Twitter this morning, and it sounds like she's furious! "The audacity you have to mention my father’s name like this! Should be ashamed of urself! I let a lot of things slide but this one is really low," she wrote. "YOU ARE DISGUSTING! (yes you know who YOU are)." But will she sue? We'll keep you posted!

Natalie Wood Case: Investigators Say They Have No Evidence

The re-opened investigation into Natalie Wood's death turned up NOTHING, this according to cops.

The L.A. County Sheriff's Department says investigators have found nothing to lead them to believe Natalie's mysterious death in 1981 was anything but an accident.

As Beverly News previously reported, investigators reopened the case after 30 years due to information from a book written by the the captain of the boat where Natalie spent her last minutes.

The case isn't closed yet. Cops say they're still on the hunt for evidence.... but so far, they don't have any.

Russell Brand Removes Wedding Ring Months Before Divorce Announcement

The comedian was just taping a video to promote his upcoming U.S. college tour.

Russell Brand filed for divorce from Katy Perry in December, but this video, in which he is seen removing his wedding band, was made back in November. A bit ironic?

As he slips off his ring, Brand, 36, says, "I'm going to place this somewhere very, very safe for the next week."

The British comedian also talks about looking forward to visiting sororities.

He adds, "I don't know what a sorority is, except for what I have seen on Nudevista – that they are sort of sex clubs for women."

Makes you wonder what Katy thinks of this video. Russell's soon-to-be ex wife recently cancelled a scheduled appearance at this week's People's Choice Awards.

Watch what Russell has to say below....

Christina On Her Battle With The Bulge: "I Don't Weigh Myself"

 CLICK PICTURE TO ENLARGE

Christina Aguilera graces the February cover of Marie Claire, and she dishes on her fav fashion picks, being a mom and her weight gain. Of course, she took some time to strike a few sexy poses, and even though she's flaunting a fuller figure, she still looks fabulous!

On her body, the 31-year-old singer states, “I’ve been through my highs, I’ve been through my lows; I’ve been through the gamut of all things in this business. Being too thin. Being bigger. I’ve been criticized for being on both sides of the scale. It’s noise I block out automatically. I love my body. My boyfriend loooves my body ... I have certain physical features that I favor over others. We all have our areas. When I worked on Burlesque, I lost so much weight that I was too skinny. I don't weigh myself — it's all about how I feel in my clothes. What looks good on one person might not look good on another body type. I happen to be very confident in my own skin. It takes time to get to that place, but it's all about embracing yourself and your body."

While Christina has moved on with her life, no one can forget about the drama of 2010, which saw her going through a divorce, flubbing the lyrics to the national anthem at the Super Bowl and getting arrested for public intoxication. "That was a rough year," she admits, shaking her head. "Between my divorce and the other things I went through, a lot happened. It's hard for anyone to go through that in public. But when you're a celebrity and under a microscope, it's 58 million times harder. I grew an even thicker skin after that hard year."

Lindsay Lohan in Talks To Play Elizabeth Taylor in New Biopic

Lindsay Lohan can't seem to get arrested these days when it comes to big-screen projects (pun intended), a fact which has forced her into the less-than-ideal position of vying for roles in made-for-television movies, the first of which came in the form of the ABC Family original movie "Labor Pains" in 2009. Now it seems she's eyeing another small-screen project, this time for the Lifetime Network, that would have her portraying iconic movie star Elizabeth Taylor.

"Elizabeth & Richard: A Love Story", which was previously announced as part of the revamped network's 2011-12 development slate, is a biopic that will focus on the late actress' tumultuous romance with her frequent co-star Richard Burton, and according to Deadline Lohan is in talks to play Taylor, who passed away last March.

More known now for her frequent court appearances and tabloid-ready exploits than anything else, Lohan's last credit was a minor role in director Robert Rodriguez's 2010 action film "Machete". Though she's been attached to several projects since, including  "Gotti: Three Generations" (in which she was previously rumored to be starring as mob wife Victoria Gotti in her younger years) starring John Travolta and the biopic "Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story" (in which she was replaced by Malin Akerman for insurance reasons), none have ended up materializing for her.

Perhaps this one will actually come to fruition?

Kim Kardashian Wishes Kate Middleton A Happy Birthday

Kim Kardashian is sending a special birthday message across the pond to Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton ... who turns 30 today!

However, the 31-year-old reality star, wearing a low cut animal print blouse, didn't waste an opportunity to plug one of the products she represents as usual.

After the brief b-day message, Ms. Kardashian just so happened to mention a special ShoeDazzle offer involving a new heel called "The Duchess."

Such a pathetic way to send a birthday message.

Charlie Sheen Tells Reporters He's "Not Crazy Anymore", Begins Casting For New Show

After spending time with ex-wife Denise Richards and their daughters Sam and Lola over the holidays, Charlie Sheen is ready to get back to work!

At last night's Fox TCAs, Sheen told reporters that he's in a much better place mentally and he's eager to get started on his new show, Anger Management. "I'm not crazy any more. That was an episode," Sheen said. "I think I'm a different person than I was yesterday. Everything is a lot more mellow and focused and much more rooted in reality."

Anger Management begins shooting in March, and though Sheen and his co-producers have yet to cast the major roles on the show, showrunner Bruce Helford told the press, “Everyone in the world calls to say they want to do that show. Everyone wants to come in and play a therapy patient.” As for Sheen’s character, it will be “considerably more complex” than any of his previous roles, according to Helford. Sheen added to THR, "I just wanted to do a show and play a character that dealt with more mature themes and stuff that actually exists in the real world. A lot of times on the other show I felt like we were servicing the comedy and not allowing it to come out of character situations."

"I've been at this 30 years," Sheen continued. "It's nice to be in a situation where the people I'm working with are excited about my input. That wasn't the case for a long time." While that seems like a bit of a dig at his former Two and a Half Men crew, Sheen isn't opposed to making peace with former boss Chuck Lorre. "At some point we are going to have to get some closure there," he added.

Snoop Dogg ARRESTED For Weed in Texas

Sources say Snoop Dogg was ARRESTED in Texas this weekend after a drug-sniffing dog uncovered marijuana on his tour bus.

Law enforcement sources say.... Snoop's tour bus was stopped at a border patrol checkpoint in Sierra Blanca -- a small town in West Texas where Willie Nelson was popped for weed back in 2010.

The border patrol agents ran a standard inspection of the bus with the dog ... when the animal alerted the agents to a possible hit in a waste basket in the back of the vehicle.

The agents claim they found a red prescription bottle with several joints inside.

Cops say Snoop admitted the dope belonged to him. Snoop has a prescription for cannabis in California, but law enforcement tells us, there is a zero tolerance policy for weed in Texas -- regardless of his status in other states.

Snoop was issued a citation for misdemeanor drug possession and released. If convicted on the drug charge, Snoop could face up to 180 days in jail.

Stephen Hawking Reveals BIGGEST Mystery

The biggest mystery in the universe perplexing one of the world's best known scientists is -- WOMEN.

When New Scientist magazine asked "Brief History of Time" author Stephen Hawking what he thinks about most, the Cambridge University professor renowned for unravelling some of the most complex questions in modern physics answered: "Women. They are a complete mystery."

The wheelchair-bound Hawking, who only recently retired from a post once held by Isaac Newton, talked to the magazine in the run-up to celebrations for his 70th birthday about his biggest scientific blunder and his hopes for modern science.

Hawking celebrated his 70th birthday on Sunday with a public symposium entitled "The State of the Universe" at the University of Cambridge's Centre for Theoretical Cosmology, but he was too ill to attend.

Hawking heads a list of speakers including British Astronomer Royal Martin Rees, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Saul Perlmutter and Kip Thorne, one of the world's leading theoretical physicists.
