Do you think you should let that male coworker take the last donut? No. Absolutely not. Don't let him have it right away, anyhow.

So Lindsay Lohan asks to borrow a designer dress for the amFAR gala from stylist Phillip Bloch, whose number she got from Charlie Sheen.

Judging from the amount of pro-Chris Brown sentiment around at the moment he's going to need to punch a baby on live TV and follow it up with a statement saying how much he enjoyed it before his diehard supporters switch camps.
