Got Gossip?
We don't either. Just checking.
On the Sly
This blogger wasn't the only one on vacation recently. Apparently, Elaine Lancaster was out in Vegas to see her best pal Pamela Anderson in The Magical Beauty at the hot new Planet Hollywod Hotel and Casino where Lancaster dissed Anderson at the after party and canoodled with none other than Sly Stallone. According to Lancaster, however, the two are strictly friends. We're surprised Sly allowed the photo op, considering that Miami's fave drag diva towers over him by miles. Check it out:
Scene's Goin' Fishin'
All this Lindsay and Britney stuff can get exhausting, therefore, Scene is going on a little hiatus and will be back in a few weeks. Should anything happen from our vacation destinations, we may interrupt this break and blog from afar. Until then...
Spoiler Alert (Sort Of): Britney Skips a Few Beats
If you want to be surprised by tonight's Britney Spears "show" at Mansion, don't read on. But really, it's not like you're expecting Barbra Streisand, so keep reading. According to our mole at the Orlando show last night, "The Britney show was hilarious--she was lip synching [of course] to play it safe," and here's the kicker, "And the record kept skipping! It happened two or three times on her fourth song [out of five]--and she looked more and more embarassed." Half the crowd jeered, while the other half just laughed. Excellent! It's always nice to have a good laugh, especially on a rainy Sunday!
Kin You Believe?
Spotted celebrating her own form of Spring Break at The Shore Club yesterday, noneother than Mrs. Lohan herself---Lindsay's mom, Dina. No word on whether she won a wet t-shirt contest but we're willing to bet she'd kick sand in the faces of frat boys everywhere should she challenge them to beer bong bingo.
Screw Rehab, I'm Goin' to Bebe, Y'all
So we think Britney dissed her Antigua rehab in favor of Bebe in Aventura Mall on Wednesday. As we reported in earlier blogs on Thursday, Brit was spotted shopping after hours at Bebe in Aventura on Wednesday night (yes, Valentine's Day), and checked out really fast from the Four Seasons on Brickell Thursday morning. According to our spies, Brit's stay at the Four Seasons was very last minute. So we're thinking the pop tart flew in from her non-stint at rehab and decided to buy herself a nice outfit at Bebe instead. Rehab, screw that. Brit's all about the retail therapy.
1010 Wins Reporting Anna Nicole Is Dead
Radio station 1010 Wins has reported Anna Nicole Smith is dead.
Anna Nicole: The ER is Chaos
Memorial Regional PR can't confirm much because we're hearing the ER there is in "absolute chaos." Media is speculating that she's dead, but nothing at all is confirmed. We're waiting for press conference to update us on her condition...her lawyer/lover Howard Stern has said she was suffering from pneumonia and a collapsed lung but we aren't buying that just yet...waiting for the ER..
Anna Nicole Press Conference
It was chaos at the Seminole Hard Rock when paramedics tried to revive Anna Nicole Smith, who was found unresponsive and unconscious in her hotel room. A press conference to discuss her condition is coming live from the Memorial Regional Hospital in ahalf hour.
Anna Nicole: "It Does Not Look Good"
This just in from Memorial Regional Hospital, where Anna Nicole was taken after collapsing at the Seminole Hard Rock in Hollywood: "It does not look good."

Forging Into 2007
Over at the Forge, the Hogan family ate and drank together like a family should---going strong later in Glass around 2 am where Heat players Dwyane Wade and Antoine Walker were partying along with LaBron James.
Lindsay Blow-han
Remember when Lindsay Lohan was rushed to Miami Beach's Mt. Sinai hospital because of alleged exhaustion or asthma or whatever? We didn't buy it. Now, either do the people who are making her next flick. Read the letter threatening Lohan with legal action if she doesn't clean up her hard partying ways.
Lara Flynn's Spoiled
Not to be the bearer of bad news, but poor Lara Flynn Boyle has come down with a nasty case of Strep throat, and will not be hosting her lovely ladies who lunch dinner at the St. Regis tonight. That din din will be rescheduled, we're told.
Colin-oscopy.
Can anyone out there tell us if it's true that Kate Moss was seen talking to Colin Farrell at the Raleigh Hotel over the weekend? Some Brit-rag reports that Farrell was taking a two day respite from his rehab--at the Raleigh of all places. We don't buy it for a minute, but, if anyone has proof of this, please do let us know.
Pete's Moss at Delano
Wait a minute, is Kate Moss still with that crackhead Pete Doherty? Anyway, she's not with him here, where she checked into the Delano yesterday along with her mum and child. Kate's in town for a photo shoot---for what, we wonder? The new "This is your brain on drugs" campaign? Anyway, the paparazzi are out stalking her in front, on the side, and behind the hotel. Make like Where's Waldo and see if you can spot the stick figure, too.
Brown delivers
Sugo at the Sanctuary was on fire Friday night---literally--as Bobby Brown and two bodyguards showed up for dinner. Brown couldn't get enough of his smokes--cigarettes, that is--and was seen going outside every few minutes to light up. To his credit, he was polite enough to ask if he could smoke inside, which he couldn't. It was not his prerogative and clearly, either was wife Whitney, who was conspicuously or not so conspicously absent. When asked where Whitney was, a cursory, "In Connecticut with the kids," was offered while Brown's goon was busy trying to make a hot blonde an offer she couldn't refuse if she'd only git wit Bobby. We've heard so much about how bad Whitney is these days, but if you'd have been there last night, you could possibly understand what has driven her to be that way. Brown's eyes were a crimson red, he was bloated and barely able to keep his jaw from knocking. It was a sad, sad sight, but if Being Bobby Brown isn't enough, we'd like to suggest that a producer offer him the role of Mush Mouth in the sequel to the Fat Albert flick.
Retail Therapy?
Right, ok, so Lindsay Lohan was soooooo sick, hooked up to tubes and oxygen tanks and stuff, and as soon as she checks out, too weak to walk, she hits the Delano, where she lays out at the pool and goes shopping. Makes sense, right? Of course it does, silly! Linds clearly wasn't too weak to plunk down $2,500 for a diamond skull necklace from the Luis Morais collection at the hotel gift shop. And, by the way, we don't believe she's dating Leo DiCaprio AT ALL. Not for a minute. After all, she was too sick to be swapping spit, right?
Looks like Lindsay's all better
As I type this, Lindsay Lohan, straight off her stint in Mt. Sinai for her brutal "asthma attack", is sitting happily poolside at The Delano Hotel. So much for the Miami humidity being the trigger for her "attack."
A second opinion on Lohan
A doctor at Mt. Sinai who prefers to remain anonymous--we don't blame him--tells us this about Lindsay's so-called asthma attack: "She has been admitted complaining of "difficulty breathing, and chest pain common with that of an asthma attack" only, he adds "She has no history of having asthma nor symptoms relating to that of asthma. " He also heard from colleagues that she was all disheveled and her hair smelled like Captain Morgan's and cigarette smoke.
Lindsay Blow-han
So we're hearing that Lindsay really did have a bad asthma attack, blaming her inability to breathe on the Miami humidity and not on the smoky clubs she was partying in. According to a person who was hanging out with her this weekend told us that Linds was in dire need of a new inhaler and that "She really did have breathing problems all week. It was really bad. " We bet it was.
Lindsay Lohan at Mt. Sinai
As reported by my good friend Jon Warech of People Mag, it's true, Lindsay Lohan is in Mt. Sinai after suffering a "brutal asthma attack." We think that's just another euphemism for "exhaustion." Developing....
