Another celebrity father is about to have private voicemail, intended for his daughter, leaked to the media. We're referring to father of Lindsay Lohan.
In his message, he apologizes to Lindsay for talking to the media about the personal affairs of the actress.
No big deal, right? But this isn't the first time someone's private message has been shared with the world. Remember when actor Alec Baldwin left a string of obscenities on his daughter's voicemail?
Is it right to have what is intended to be a private message shared with the media?

Ellen DeGeneres says it's all her fault.
She's made a tearful public appeal to a pet rescue agency to return a dog to her hairdresser's family.
The talk show hostess adopted the dog -- a Brussels Griffon mix named Iggy -- from a rescue group last month. But the situation didn't work out. On her show aired today, DeGeneres said Iggy was too rambunctious and didn't get along with her cats.
DeGeneres said she felt that her hairdresser, who has two daughters, would be able to give the dog a loving home.
But the problem developed when the rescue agency, Mutts and Moms, called to ask how Iggy was doing. DeGeneres says she learned then that by not informing the agency that she was giving the dog away, she had violated the adoption agreement. The agency, according to DeGeneres, went to the hairdresser's home and took the dog back.
Saying she feels "totally responsible," a tearful DeGeneres begged the agency to return the dog to the family. She says the girls had bonded with Iggy and were now heartbroken.

Here is an AP review for the newest Harry Potter movie.
What do you think? Do you plan to see this newest adventure?
(AP) Review: `Potter' Spins More of the Same
By DAVID GERMAIN
AP Movie
Writer
Harry Potter seems to be living the same school year over and over.
And it's starting to wear thin.
The fifth adventure for the teen wizard,
"Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," is another visual marvel, yet it
suffers from a problem similar to other sequels this summer: We've seen it all
before.
Or at least, we've seen most of it. Sure there are new characters
introduced, new perils, new responsibilities for Harry and his pals and new
revelations about the kid's early life and connection to the dark Lord
Voldemort.
And Harry even has his first kiss.
Those fresh details
aside, though, and despite a new director and screenwriter, "Order of the
Phoenix" sticks safely and at times monotonously to the Potter formula: Show a
bit of Harry's drab summer among his heartless Muggle relations, branch off into
a magical interlude, then land him back at Hogwarts School of Wizardry and
Witchcraft, where the same old issues resurface _ classmate rivalry, teacher
trouble, and a slow build toward another showdown with
Voldemort.
Granted, this is the formula of J.K. Rowling's books, and with
fans counting the days until the arrival of the seventh and final novel July 21,
the recipe has served the series well.
A good deal of the charm of the
earlier movies results from the baubles the filmmakers have kept in from the
books: Odd little interactions with Hogwarts' resident ghosts and living
portraits, some sports action on the quidditch field, quirky classroom
happenings _ stuff that doesn't really have much to do with the main
story.
In casting aside most of those trappings, director David Yates and
screenwriter Michael Goldenberg deliver the shortest Potter movie yet, though
"Order of the Phoenix" is the longest novel at 800-plus pages.
The movie
gains in momentum but loses a lot of the fun and wonder of previous
installments. Granted, the stories grow gloomier as Harry's ultimate challenge
approaches in book seven, but he's faced doom and death before and still managed
to have a good time.
An air of calamity hangs over Harry (Daniel
Radcliffe) from the outset in "Order of the Phoenix." At the end of his
interminable summer, he's attacked by soul-sucking Dementors, then he's expelled
from Hogwarts for unauthorized use of magic to drive them off.
Hogwarts
headmaster Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) intercedes on Harry's behalf at a
Ministry of Magic appeals hearing. But Dumbledore, previously a tender mentor
for Harry, distances himself from the youth throughout the school
year.
Harry and buddies Hermione (Emma Watson) and Ron (Rupert Grint)
face the same old tormenting from classmates. But this time it's amplified by
scorn for Harry, who is branded a liar for insisting that Voldemort (Ralph
Fiennes) had returned to physical form during their battle at the end of the
last school year.
The magical world is so shaken and divided that the
Ministry of Magic assigns repressive teacher Dolores Umbridge (Imelda Staunton)
to the Hogwarts staff to keep an eye on Dumbledore and impart her bland,
useless, "Ministry-approved" curriculum.
Dolores is all about toeing the
line and outlawing original thought, leaving the kids without the knowledge and
skills they sense they will need as Voldemort and his stooges close
in.
It falls on Harry to organize and instruct volunteers in a gang they
name Dumbledore's Army _ Hogwarts students who band together to learn how to
defend themselves against the dark forces.
One of the most comforting
things about the "Harry Potter" movies is how Radcliffe, Watson and Grint have
grown into the roles and advanced as performers. No longer awkward,
inexperienced children, they nicely project both the camaraderie of best friends
and the gravity of youths forced to mature far too soon.
Some returning
characters step to the forefront again, notably Harry's godfather, Sirius Black
(Gary Oldman, who delivers with passion and wistfulness). As always, Alan
Rickman delights as Professor Snape, whose dour disposition and disdain for
Harry is explained to a degree.
Most other key characters are back,
including Professor McGonagall (Maggie Smith) and Sybil Trelawney (Emma
Thompson), both sadly underused; Mrs. Weasley (Julie Walters); Hagrid (Robbie
Coltrane); and Mad-Eye Moody (Brendan Gleeson).
Staunton dominates the
movie with her perky facade and underlying cruelty. She's a perfect pillar of
duplicity and self-righteousness whose aims and methods inject a bit of
McCarthyism into Hogwarts.
Helena Bonham Carter makes the most of a brief
appearance as deliriously fiendish Voldemort ally Bellatrix Lestrange. Also new
to the show is Evanna Lynch as spacey student Luna Lovegood.
Much of the
movie is a setup for things to come and an explanation of things that came
before _ personal histories, disclosures and prophecies, hints of an unholy bond
between Harry and Voldemort.
At times, "Order of the Phoenix" is as dry
as studying Latin grammar by rote. A climactic tussle between Harry and
Voldemort's forces is among the most impressive visual creations in the "Harry
Potter" flicks; yet dramatically, it's mostly another tease in their endless
grudge match.
Familiarity is not quite breeding contempt for Harry and
his friends and enemies. But it's starting to breed indifference.
"Harry
Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," a Warner Bros. release, is rated PG-13 for
sequences of fantasy violence and frightening images. Running time: 138 minutes.
Two and a half stars out of four.

FROM HULIQ.COM - Jordin Sparks weight becomes source of public discussion. American Idol winner is suggested to lose some weight.
A health commentator has earned the wrath of Jordin Sparks' fans, after suggesting that the young American Idol winner needs to lose weight.
MeMe Roth, of the group National Action Against Obesity, said she has received death threats since appearing on U.S. television and declaring the 17-year-old Arizona native overweight.
"When I look at Jordin I see diabetes, I see heart disease, I see high cholesterol," said Roth. "That's what's so sad about this - she is not the vision of health - she is the vision of 'unhealth.'"
Roth added that while she never called Sparks "obese," and admires the singer's talent and "effervescent personality," she typifies many modern U.S. children who have compromised their health through poor food choices and inactivity.
Roth said "You'll also find Miss Sparks to be quite contradictory. In her latest People Magazine interview, she's declaring to 'love her body' just as it is, while at the same time, in the sidebar, advising other 'plus-size' females on how to dress slim."

FROM FOXNEWS.com -- Itty bitty beauty Nicole Richie has a big sense of humor.
The Tinseltown tiny reportedly sent around a sarcastic e-mail inviting her “fellow American” friends to join her on Memorial Day and “take shots, pass out, & wake up with our pants ripped open at the seems."
Click here to see the purported invite
It seems Richie only wanted to spend the dutiful day with other skinny starlets, as she insists in the purported invite that there will be scales at the door and nobody “over 100 pounds” would be granted entry.

She was sentenced Friday to 45 days at the Century Regional Detention Center, Los Angeles County's jailhouse for women just south of downtown in Lynwood.
Inmates there get three low-sodium meals a day, with dinner the only hot meal. Beef and pork aren't permitted _ "it's all poultry-based," said Capt. Alice Scott, who oversees the 2,200-inmate facility she describes as "a very nice place."

Frenchie Davis, dumped by "American Idol" in 2003 for lingerie shots posted on a Web site, moved on to Broadway success and thought she had buried a humiliating chapter of her young life.
That changed in the last few days after contestant Antonella Barba was allowed to stay on the top-rated Fox series despite the emergence of racy online photos that purport to be of Barba, but with no verification.
The first big controversy of the show's sixth season swelled Tuesday when fans and a civil-rights activist rallied to Davis' side, saying she was the victim of unfair and potentially biased treatment. Davis is black; Barba is white.
