While the charge against Lindsey Lohan allegedly stealing a necklace was reduced from a felony to a misdemeanor, the judge in the case still sentenced the star to 120 days in jail for violating her parole in a past DUI sentence.  Lohan was surprised by the ruling and didn't expect to be donning another orange jumpsuit. However, she spent only five hours in the holding room before her $75,000 bail set her free while her lawyers appeal the judgment. Lohan also received, as part of her sentence, 500 hours of community service, including working at the county morgue and a local women's shelter. Sources close to Lindsay say she was under the impression she'd be going home after the hearing ... and was "blindsided" when she got sentenced.  Lohan reportedly described the situation as "ridiculous" and "f**ked up."

Charlie Sheen has one less goddess running around his mansion.  Former porno actress Bree Olson dumped Charlie via text over the weekend.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver, Brandon Marshall, was taken to the intensive care unit in a South Florida hospital Friday and had to have surgery for a stomach wound. Andrew Carter of the Florida Sun-Sentinel reports that Marshall's wife Michi Marshall admitted to stabbing Brandon in the abdomen, claiming self-defense.  Adam Schefter of ESPN reports Michi is in jail for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.  This is not the first incident of domestic violence for Brandon Marshall.  When he was playing for the Denver Broncos police were called three times in three months in 2007 for incidents between him and his then girlfriend, Rasheedah Watley.  Watley was hospitalized for a cut on her thigh an injuries sustained after being punched in the face.

There will be no more Flavor Flav's Chicken in Clinton, Iowa.  The rapper says his business partner mismanaged the operation and has give Flav a bad reputation. Employees were claiming their payroll checks were bouncing, which Cimino blamed on "a credit card glitch." Flav also said the food was also a problem, saying he visited on April 2nd an found potato salad that had expired on February 28th. Flav is set to open up "Flavor Flav's House of Flavor" in Las Vegas next month.

After just two episodes, NBC has pulled The Paul Reiser Show off the air, The comedy premiered to 3.3 million viewers and a 1.1 rating ranking it as the network's lowest-rated comedy premiere.... ever!  Creator and star, Paul Reiser said the network rushed the show to air without enough promotion. Repeats of "The Office" will take over at 8:30pm beginning next week.

I don't believe this guy.  Last week's "American Idol" bootee, Stefano Langone said on Friday, he never wanted to win the show, saying it was only a way to launch his career.  Stefano, who appeared pretty much to be a one trick poney, says it was hard to showcase his chops on the show, while also saying he wanted to keep his original music and piano playing private for now. During the competition, Langone had been urged several times by judges to make more effort to connect emotionally with his material, but his performance of the various songs all pretty much sounded the same.   (Folks around the office think he should just be in a boy band or strut his stuff in musical theater)

It's official: Eddie Cibrian and LeAnn Rimes are now husband and wife! The couple said their vows on Friday surrounded by 40 friends and family including Cibrian's sons Mason, 7, and Jake, 4, from his previous marriage. The couple had led guests to believe that they'd been invited to an engagement party, but surprised them all by tying the knot. The couple were engaged in December when Cibrian proposed with a 5-carat diamond ring.

TV personality, Leeza Gibbons, 54, quietly married her boyfriend of three years, Steven Fenton, 41, on Wednesday.   The couple said their "I do's"  on the rooftop of the Montage Hotel in Beverly Hills, where they had their first date.   The bride's three children: Lexi, 21, Troy 19, and Nathan, 13, were the only guests.  Gibbons met Fenton, who is former president of the Beverly Hills Board of Education, after being set up on a blind date.
