Lindsay Lohan: I"m Normal and Nice Now! I Swear!
Once America’s favorite troubled teen, treated with scorn and sexism, Lindsay Lohan is now our greatest export and is in a better place than ever before.
So teases the sub-headline of a New York Times profile of Lohan, who was actually once a very famous singer and actress.
It’s true!
That was eons ago, of course, as Lohan has been known far more for many years as someone who drives drunks; writes poems to ISIS; and yearns for Mean Girls 2 to get made so she can be hired again.
In this New York Times profile, however, Lohan swears she’s a new and improved person.
She’s living far away from the spotlight in Dubai, she explains, and loving every milisecond of it.
“I’m a normal, nice person. A good person. I don’t have any bad intentions. And my past has to stay in the past,” Lohan says, adding for emphasis:
“Like, people have to just let go of it and stop bringing it up because it’s not – it’s gone. It’s dead. And that’s the most important thing to me.”
It certainly is accurate that Lohan hasn’t gotten into trouble in a very long time.
She hasn’t been relevant, either.
She could have been arrested six times in March and would anyone really have noticed?
But Lindsay says this hasn’t been the case at all, and that she’s content just sitting back and overseeing the Lohan Beach House on Mykonos.
“There’s a business side to my life now,” she tells the Times, proving as much by demanding extra money for the photo shoot that accompanied this article.
The actress-turned-entrepreneur says Dubai is “the safest place” for her.
It actually doesn’t allow paparazzi-type folks to snap random pictures, so she likely has a point there.
“It’s less demanding. America is always like, ‘Go go go go go!’ I don’t have to turn on the news and see about the Kardashians,” Lohan adds, taking a swipe at a frequent foe and adding:
“I don’t have to see anything anymore. I choose what I want to see and how I want to live.”
Apparently Tiffany Trump will be visiting Lohan in Greece next month, which led to a question about her Presidential father and Lindsay’s take on politics.
“Here’s the thing: very simple with politics,” she said. “He’s the president. No matter what anyone says, he’s still the president. I have no feeling. I have no emotion.”
Okay, fine.
But what about her mother and father, both of whom she’s feuded with hard in the past?
“I’m not in control of my family,” she says. “I’m only in control of myself. We’re all friends. My mom and dad are friends, everyone’s good.”
About two years ago, Lohan was the victim of domestic violence, claiming at the time that boyfriend Egor Tarabasov strangled her and tried to kill her.
From that point on, she says, Lohan has vowed to take back control of her life.
“I think success is the best revenge – and silence, as a presence,” she explains, concluding of the aforementioned awful incident:
“It happened, here in Mykonos, on the beach. And that was the moment where I switched and I was like, ‘I’m going to take control of my life completely, and fire everyone and just rehire them when I’m ready.’
“And that’s why I’m here today, because it was on that beach where I got hit. I said, ‘You know what? If there’s anything I can do, I’m going to get that beach.
“It’s going to be my beach.”

Amanda Bynes: Caught Looking... Normal?!?
Amanda Bynes has posted a new photo of herself on Twitter.
And you may need to brace yourself for this one, celebrity gossip followers.
Because the former trainwreck of a mediocre actress is actually looking like … GASP! … not all that much of a trainwreck at the moment.
Indeed, the Internet is in shock right now after Bynes shared the above snapshot on her Twitter page late last week.
Users can’t believe just how normal the star looks while sitting alongside a friend at Girasol Restaurant in Studio City, California.
Along with an emoji of two lipstick-laden lips, the troubled D-Lister included a very simple caption that reads as follows:
“Dinner with friends at Girasol.”
Not particularly revealing, we know, but this is the first picture Bynes has posted in 2018.
We last saw her on social media way back in April of last year when Amanda shared the following image, which appears to also depict her and this same gal pal:
In the latest image, the former Nickelodeon child star is sitting with long blonde hair extensions and a basic black top as she prepares to dine at the eatery.
Looks can be deceiving, of course, but she doesn’t appear to be have recently suffered a mental illness relapse, as had been reported in December.
An actress with a seemingly bright future just a few years ago, Bynes fell hard off the deep end back in 2014.
She was often spotted in public, looking disheveled beyond belief, while she frequently rambled incoherently about things such as killing her dad and leaving his body in a ditch.
She was subsequently diagnosed as Bipolar and was scarcely heard from at all in 2017.
But insiders now tell Us Weekly that Bynes is hoping to make a comeback.
“Amanda is going to be graduating from fashion school this summer,” this source tells the supermarket tabloid, adding:
“She is doing so well and is very excited about the next chapter of her professional life.”
Hey, we’ve made plenty of fun of Bynes over these difficult years, but we’d be thrilled if she really did turn things around.
She hasn’t acted since 2010 and has been nothing but an unfortunate laughingstock among those who follow the entertainment industry ever since.
Following several months of erratic behavior and arrests, Byneswas placed in a treatment facility under an involuntary psychiatric hold in 2014.
She was kicked out of L.A.’s Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising this same year.
However, she returned to this same school in 2015.
Us Weekly writes that Amanda “has been focused on school and does want to return to acting.”
There is allegedly “interest” in her, as well, although it’s unclear from whom and for which medium.
In June of 2017, Bynes went on camera with blogger Diana Madison for the first time since her public meltdown, sounding like someone who had herself together.
“I do miss acting and I have something surprising to tell you: I’m going to start acting again,” she said last summer, concluding:
“I want to do TV. Maybe a few guest spots on some shows that I’m a fan of and maybe another TV show where I’m the star of it.”

Atlanta Mom Breastfeeds Boyfriend "Cause That"s Totally Normal
Jennifer Mulford of the Atlanta area is thrilled to be in an Adult Breastfeeding Relationship (ABR) with boyfriend Brad Leeson.
We don’t know if she made up that acronym or not, but we’ve all had that secret fetish at some point in our lives, are we right people?!
Mulford, 36, took time off from her job as a bartender to establish breastfeeding – which she hasn’t done in 20 years – just for this reason.
Because she has not given birth to a baby since she was a teenager, Jennifer and Brad, also 36, need to “dry feed” every two hours.
Try to aim away from your computer or mobile device whilst vomiting.
The dry-feeding thing is designed, of course, to fool her body into thinking she is feeding a child so her breasts start producing milk.
Why the preoccupation with this unusual sexy pastime?
If mammary serves (sorry), Jennifer was single when she stumbled across a website about ABR, and from there, she was obsessed.
“When I read about the bond breastfeeding that could create between two people I was envious,” she told the venerable Sun (UK).
“I have always enjoyed my breasts being touched during sex more than anything else so I knew I would enjoy it,” Jennifer added.
With this idea in her head, she began searching for men who be open to the idea of adult breastfeeding. How did that quest go?
“When I read about the pure joy it brought others, I was desperate to seek out a partner to share an emotional bond with.”
“I used dating sites, put messages on ABR forums and even put an advert on Craigslist,” she says, “but I drew a blank.”
“I started to think I’d never get to try adult breastfeeding.”
It’s tough going out there. Finally, however, she started discussing the idea with Brad, an old boyfriend from school. He was game.
“I thought it was the perfect time to bring up adult breastfeeding – and see if he’d be interested,” said Jen, unable to believe her good fortune.
“We were talking and Brad told me he had a thing for big-breasted women, and that size had always been a factor in his relationships.”
“It was like a light switched flicked in his head,” Mulford recalls. “I could tell from his voice that he was curious and excited.”
After he did his own research into ABR, he knew he wanted to be more than friends: “At that moment I knew that I had a partner for life.”
“We both wanted the same thing out of the relationship – a magical bond that only breastfeeding an achieve.”
Brings a tear to your eye, doesn’t it?
Not that ABRing doesn’t bring its own set of challenges – especially given that Jennifer hadn’t breastfed for over 20 years at this point.
She had no milk to feed Brad with, so the cute couple need to induce lactation by dry-feeding and pumping her breasts every two hours.
Admit it, you’re gonna try this later.

Kylie Jenner Komplains: I"ve Never Been Normal!
Kylie Jenner may not want your sympathy, but she does want something in the following sneak peek at this Sunday"s new episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians:
A chance to go unrecognized in public.
The upcoming installment of this totally scripted reality show features Kylie, Kendall and Khloe undergoing an extreme makeover in order to live the life of a non-celebrity for once.
We"re talking a seriously extreme makeover.
You won"t believe the steps these sisters take to ensure no one will have a clue who they are.
Why go through such an experience?
Kourtney Kardashian essentially has that same question, looking at Kylie in the following video and asking:
"What do you feel like you missed out on, like, in your childhood?"
"I missed out on being normal," Kylie responds. "[On being able to feel like I can like get out of the car and nobody"s staring at me, do you know what I mean?
"That"s why I missed out on."
Kendall Jenner agrees.
"I realize that it is kinda crazy that we have to go through all of this just to go out and be normal, but it"s worth it I think, I hope," she says, backing up her sister.
Kylie and Kendall, of course, have largely chosen this life.
They share an endless array of attention-grabbing pictures on Instagram and you can watch Keeping Up with the Kardashians online every week to see their latest antics.
If the Jenners truly wanted to be "normal," they could choose to fly far further under the radar than they do. Alas.
Check out the sneak peek and prepare to be shocked over the way in which they are about to go incognito.

Lindsay Lohan Actually Looks Normal and Happy and It"s Freaking Us Out
Lindsay Lohan may or may not be engaged to Egor Tarbasov.
The couple has been dating for five months and things are clearly going well, though reports over their official status remain conflicted.
But even if Egor is yet to put a ring on it, the guy is clearly doing something right as far as Lohan is concerned.
The VERY troubled actress shared a couple selfies on Instagram over the weekend, making the basis for her bliss as clear as can be via the caption to one of the images.
“Time flies when you’re having fun and happy in love #supersaturdays,” she wrote.
Seriously, have you ever seen Lindsay Lohan look so happy? Look so… normal?!?
Earlier in her Instagram sharing binge, Lohan wrote that “true love is possible.”
We’ll be honest: we never dreamed it would be for her.
Tarabasov is seven years younger than Lohan and reportedly moved in with the star in March.
Lindsay’s rep has denied that any life-altering questions have been popped, but the Lohan has been spotted wearing a sparkling emerald band on her ring finger.
And also wearing the biggest smile we’ve ever seen from her on her face.
About a year ago, Lohan came off probation for the first time in seven years.
She has since remained mostly under the radar, actually sticking to the salient words she wrote on Twitter last May.
“Clean slate. Fresh start…hard work pays off. Thank you to all those that allowed me to volunteer while in nyc. God bless you all. Amen.”
Along with the pair of pictures above, Lohan posted a photo of a beautiful beach sunrise with a familiar looking-cloud.
This is what she wrote as a caption to it:
If you look to the right in this photo. You will notice the figure of a hat.
I took this as I was playing a #michaeljackson remix with #prince & it’s almost as if they are watching over us all and sharing their peace with us.. #cincodemayo #onelove

Kendra Wilkinson: My Son Sees Me Naked! It"s Totally Normal!
I get what she’s trying to do, but…
Kendra Wilkinson is comfortable with her body, thanks to some time spent with Hugh Hefner and Playboy.
So much so, that Wilkinson wants her kids to grow up in a naked house (see: Sex and the City).
Wilkinson told E! News that she’s not shy when it comes to stripping down.
“I have no shame. We take baths together. We take showers together,” she said of her quality time spent with the six-year-old.
“If you hide something then it becomes more, like, taboo.”
Wilkinson pointed out that when they bathe together, she does wear a bathing suit. However, she has no problem “going in and changing in front of” her son.
“A body is a body; it’s not taboo anymore,” Wilkinson explained.
“I’m so glad we’re breaking through those walls,”
What about that famously former nudie magazine?
“Of course I would let little Hank see my Playboy. He sees me naked every day,” she said.
“Little Hank’s already been in his office. Little Hank’s already seen the nude magazines,” she said.
“He’s already seen them! He’s cool.”
Wilkinson recently taped an appearance on Kocktails With Khloe, and admitted that she got her drink on (it can’t be helped. The show centers around libations).
“Got drunk af on #KocktailsWithKhloe …We turned up. Lol @khloekardashian #tmi…I’ll let u know when it airs soon,” Wilkinson tweeted afterwards.
As you do.

Arrow Season 4 Episode 6 Recap: What is Normal?
Everyone tried to get back to normal on Arrow Season 4 Episode 6.
But what now constitutes normal for Felicity? That was a significant question at the center of this interesting hour.
The beloved computer genius feels as if she’s “lost” herself in Oliver, as if her identity has been wrapped up in her boyfriend.
This was especially upsetting to her because Felicity lamented early on that she missed Ray’s original distress calls due to the relationship of her dreams.
“I was never that girl,” she said to Oliver at one point “That is not who I am.”
Inspired to come to her ex-boyfriend’s rescue, Felicity led the team in a break-in of Kord Industries.
The mission? To nab the mathematics for a machine that would enable Ray to return to normal himself; i.e. about six foot, two inches tall.
Eventually, upon realizing that Damien Darhk was holding Tiny Ray captive, everyone (and we mean EVERYone!) infiltrated his lair.
Ray was discovered and “grown” again, while Sara snapped a goon’s neck (uh-oh! and Oliver scarcely escaped another mystical showdown with Darhk.
As a result of this (mostly) successful caper, the following developments took place:
- Felicity told Oliver that they were going to be “fine,” largely due to words of wisdom from her mother than included how she’s “supposed’ to feel lost in the man she loves because they will find themselves in each other; and also that she’ll never find anyone else “that hot who cooks.”
- Sarah peaced out, telling Laurel and Thea that she felt a need to “start over,” perhaps visit “a couple of somewheres” as a way of dealing with her post-Pit issues. Might we recommend a CW spinoff as a helpful destination?
- Darhk tasked one of his scientists with using some of Ray’s “dwarf star” power source to do… something. Something nefarious, we’re sure.
What did you make of this Felicity-based episode?
Go watch Arrow online if you need to catch up and sound off in the Comments below!

Jon Gosselin: Colleen Conrad Makes Me Feel Normal!
It’s been eight years since Jon and Kate Gosselin split. Though it has taken a long time, Jon says life is finally beginning to feel normal.
The former star on Jon & Kate Plus 8 told Us Weekly that he credits his girlfriend, Colleen Conrad, for restoring that calm to his world.
“Colleen and I are doing great, the kids are getting along well together, [and I’m] just living a normal life and DJing,” the 38-year-old said.
“Maybe it’s boring, [but] it’s a breath of fresh air.” he added.
Not only are they dating, but Gosselin has been cohabiting with with Colleen Conrad, who is also a parent, for the last nine months.
Though Jon has twins Maddie and Cara and sextuplets Collin, Aaden, Joel, Leah, Hannah, and Alexis, he says life is “super normal.”
That’s impressive for someone with so many children!
In fact, he said “It’s almost like before [reality] TV. No paparazzi, just playing my gigs… just playing, no one bothering me … it’s really nice actually.”
Unfortunately, his relationship with ex-wife Kate is still a mess.
“It’s just sad almost,” Jon told Us. “It’s been a long time.”
But despite the difficult relationship with Kate, he is moving on with his life and career as a DJ. He is even going on tour with DJ-N-Do.
According to Jon, the kids are doing great.
“[Maddie and Cara] are teenagers, it’s just really difficult… I’ve never been a teenage girl but living with one…it’s up, down, left, right,” Jon said.
He added that part of it is a product of modern times: “It’s so different from when I was in high school with social media and stuff. It’s crazy!”
“Boys, it’s just like, ‘You want to go play football? Okay. Awesome. Do you want to go fishing? Do you want to go hunting?’ [And] they’re like, ‘Okay!’
“But with girls it’s like…’I want to go to King of Prussia [Pa.],’ And I’m like, ‘Oh my goodness! This is going to cost me a million dollars!"”
“King of Prussia is like 26 miles from here … Oh my goodness, Louis Vuitton … I’m like, ‘We’re not going to that side, crazy!’”
On the flip side, Kate Gosselin has a laundry list of scandals, and her life has been complicated and dramatic for years.
Just this month, Jeff Precott dumped Kate after nine months of dating, citing she was merely using him for her reality show.
Jon denied throwing shade at her on Facebook, claiming posts attributed to him celebrating the split were from fake accounts.

Normal Barbie is Now Prepared to Get Her Period
The creator of the Lammily doll has updated his product.
Artist and researcher Nickolay Lamm made headlines last year when he came out with a “normal” version of this famous item, one with a thicker waist, cellulite and freckles.
The goal at the time, according to Lamm, was to present young women with a more realistic model of themselves.
Now, kids can purchase a Period Party accessory pack for their non-Barbie in order to learn about menstruation.
The "Period Party" includes pad and liner stickers meant to fit in doll-sized underwear (also included), along with a calendar and dot stickers to keep track of a menstruation cycle.
"On average, a woman between the ages of 12 and 51 spends a total of six years on her menstrual period, yet, while being a huge part of female life, this perfectly healthy, natural process is still surrounded by taboos," reads the pamphlet that also comes with this pack.
Lamm is aiming to get rid of the stigma often attached to menstruation.
"Let"s start an open and positive conversation about our periods," adds the pamphlet. "Learn the facts. Debunk the myths. Celebrate life!"
