Beach house: Lindsay Lohan is moving into this light and airy beach house in the Venice area of Los Angeles


Lindsay Lohan is clearly hoping that the new year means a new start.

The troubled 24-year-old is reported to have left rehab today after a 90 day stay in the Betty Ford Clinic and is also ready to move into a plush new beach side pad.

The star is said to be renting the 3,100 square foot house in in the Venice Beach area of Los Angeles for just under $7,100 a month.


Luxury: Lindsay's new house boasts four bedrooms with large windows and fantastic views


However, the house is not yet ready for Lindsay to move in, so she is said to be staying at an 'upmarket LA hotel,' according to Radar.

The house comes with four bedrooms and four bathrooms and is said to be situated across the street from her friend Samantha Ronson.


New start: Lohan was released from rehab today


The house comes with four bedrooms and four bathrooms and is said to be situated across the street from her friend Samantha Ronson.

She and Ronson both used to reside in the same apartment building in the West Hollywood area of Los Angeles, but Ronson moved out last year.

Lindsay left the rehabilitation clinic, three months after she was ordered back for treatment by a judge after failing a drugs test.

She served the rehab stint in connection with her 2007 DUI conviction, after repeatedly failing to meet the terms of her probation.

This led to two stints in jail and two in rehab last year.


Modern: Lindsay's new home features plenty of open spaces and a trendy wooden staircase


Plush: Lindsay is said to be renting the pad, built in 2007, for around $7,100 a month


However, the star has signalled that she fully intends to turn over a new leaf.

She tweeted on Saturday:'Today is the first day of the rest of my life "The future depends on what we do in the present." -Mahatma Gandhi... One step at a time....'

Meanwhile Lindsay's father Michael Lohan told the CBS Early Show that his daughter was indeed turning his life around.


Stylish: Lindsay will have plenty of space for guests with four bathrooms in her new pad


Great views: Lindsay's new house is in the trendy Los Angeles area of Venice Beach


Lindsay's next court appearance is scheduled for February 25.

Troubled fans: Several young girls have threatened Selena Gomez's life, the Disney star is seen here taking a romantic stroll with Justin Bieber in Miami


Selena Gomez has received a string of death threats after she was pictured kissing teen star Justin Bieber while holidaying on the Caribbean island of St. Lucia.

The young stars have been coy about rumors of romance for several months, however the new pictures, which have surfaced online, seem to have confirmed their secret relationship.

Justin's fans, who are popularly known as 'Beliebers', posted several hostile messages to the 18-year-old Disney star on Twitter today.

One message read: 'Roses are red, violets are blue, @selenagomez if you'll break @justinbieber's heart I'm gonna kill you'.


So happy together: Justin and Selena can't stop smiling as they enjoy each other's company


Selena's fans have since taken to Twitter to show their support for the singer: 'Omg some of the things 'Beliebers' have been saying to poor @selenagomez are awful, it makes me wanna cry', one fan posted.

Selena and Justin have been keeping very close company in recent weeks.

They enjoyed pancakes at American chain restaurant, IHop pancake house in Philadelphia, and last month they were snapped warmly embracing after Selena attended Justin's sold-out concert at the American Airlines Arena in Miami.

Speaking to Us Weekly, she denied any type of romance insisting that they two were more like brother and sister.

'It was pancakes! Oh my gosh! [Justin is] one of my best friends…' she mused.

Selena also explained her feelings for Justin, describing him as 'family'.

'I love Justin. When he first started to come over from Canada his manager contacted me and he just said that he would like to meet me and he was just such a good kid…' she said.

'I feel like a big sister now, because I want to protect him.

So where HAS Amanda Holden been hiding her baby bump?

By GLENDA COOPER

When Amanda Holden announced yesterday that she was six months pregnant, her fans were delighted — but also astonished. In the past six months the Britain’s Got Talent star has never looked more svelte. So where on earth has she been hiding her baby bump?

In fact, as body-conscious mums will know, it is possible to hide the fact you’re in the family way well into the second trimester (even if you are feeling alternately sick and wanting to eat the entire contents of the nearest cake shop!).

All it needs is a bit of help from Mother Nature, sensible eating habits and some clever planning.

Next, as Amanda has proven, it’s all in the styling. First, don’t make your waistline the focus, advises Tiffany London, founder of the Tiffany Rose maternity wear brand, who has dressed pregnant celebs such as Myleene Klass and Emma Bunton.

‘Go for high-quality fabrics like jersey that have a bit of give,’ she advises.
Don’t dress like you’re pregnant, either. Avoid Princess Diana-type smocks, yoga pants and slouchy maternity jeans.


Details and accessories are key, too. Amanda has used frills, large prints and jewellery. An unusual necklace can also distract people’s attention.


‘A long necklace or a scarf, a bit more décolletage — and it’s amazing how it draws the eye up,’ says Tiffany. General grooming helps as well. If you’re a believer in full-on slap, then carry on with the red lipsticks and blow-dries.

And finally: the truth is, weight gain is an inevitable — and healthy — side-effect of pregnancy.

But when it comes to being an undercover, yet stylish mum-to-be, Amanda’s proved she’s got talent.

Black Swan star Mila Kunis splits from Macaulay Culkin after eight years

Separate ways: Macaulay Culkin and Mila Kunis, pictured here in 2006, have called off their eight-year romance


Black Swan actress Mila Kunis has split from Home Alone star Macaulay Culkin.

The Golden Globe nominated star and Culkin were together for eight years before parting ways.

'The split was amicable, and they remain close friends,' a spokesperson said told New York Post's Page Six.

According to a source the pair had broken up months ago but decided to kept it quiet while the 27-year-old promoted Black Swan.


Single: Mila, seen here at the New York premiere of Black Swan in November, kept the break-up quiet while promoting the film


Mila had previously spoken about her fear of settling down with Macaulay, 30, revealing to BlackBook in December 2009 that marriage probably wasn't for her.

She said: 'Not to say that I don't believe in it, but it's just not something that's important to me.

'But I will have children. I'm too selfish to have them now, but when I do, I don't feel like I need to be married.

'I need to have a person in my life who will care for me and my children, nothing else.'

Macaulay was once Hollywood's biggest child star, commanding £4million a film by the time he starred in 1994's Richie Rich.

But his career came to a sudden halt when his parents, Kit (who was also his manager) and Patricia, began fighting over control of his personal fortune.

Last month Mila's Black Swan co-star Natalie Portman revealed she is engaged and pregnant to the film's choreographer Benjamin Millepied.

Full of the joys: The penguin dances around the compound, much to the bemusement of his friends


It's normally little children that get excited at the sight of their first snowflake.

As permanent residents of the chilly, snow-covered South Pole, you'd think for penquins it would all be a bit, well, mundane.

Not so for this little chap who clearly couldn't control his excitement as the white stuff started to fall.

Looking like the real-life star of animated film Happy Feet, the baby penguin tears up and down while his bemused friends look on.

Or maybe he's a fan of penguin-suited dance legend Fred Astaire, who often went through his paces wearing a top hat and tails.

The clip was posted on YouTube two days ago and has already attracted thousands of views.


Inspiration: Is our dancing penguin a film fan? If so he might have seen Happy Feet or one of Fred Astaire's many films


In the Happy feet film, Mumble the penguin is cast as an outsider because he has a terrible singing voice. But he soon becomes the star of the show when he discovers he has talent for something none of his friends has seen before - tap dancing.

Generous gift: The couple said they were impressed by the hard work and dedication of Dr van Vuuren and his wife Marlice


Hollywood couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have donated £1.2m to a wildlife sanctuary in Namibia, where they spent Christmas with their children.

Jolie gave birth to the couple's daughter Shiloh in Swakopmund in 2006 and the couple chose to return to the country to celebrate Christmas with their six children.

'We want Shiloh to grow up with an understanding of her country of birth,' Angelina said.

The family stayed at the Naankuse Wildlife Sanctuary, 26 miles outside of Namibia's capital, Windhoek, while they were there.

Run by physician Dr Rudie van Vuuren and his wife Marlice, the 10,000 hectare sanctuary accommodates mostly orphaned and injured animals that cannot be released back into the wild, including lions, leopards and cheetahs and baboons


New friends: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are snapped with fellow humanitarians in Namibia


An ambassador for the UN refugee agency UNHCR, Jolie was ranked the world's most respected celebrity for her philanthropic work by the Reuters Foundation's humanitarian website AlertNet in 2008.

The family regularly spend Christmas in a foreign country. Earlier this month Angelina said: 'We're going to travel with the kids and go to a random part of the world.'

'We're going to travel and have an adventure because that's what we love to do.'
