George Clooney just compared himself to Elizabeth Taylor, and other than being really, really famous, I’m trying to figure out what he’s talking about.
By now you know that Clooney and his Dad Nick Clooney were arrested outside the Sudanese Embassy last week. Now for that "I'm just like Liz Taylor" bit.

Lohan showed up to court this morning for a scheduled probation hearing. “She’s done it all,” Judge Stephanie Sautner said, and no, she wasn’t talking about Lindsay’s drug problem.
Megan Fox, is also in talks to play Liz Taylor in the made-for-TV biopic.
Both Megan Fox and Lindsay are shortlisted for the role, which is bad news for Lindsay, who was hoping this role would finally be her career comeback.

I think Lindsay Lohan should really get out of the “biopic” business. Remember when she was supposed to play Victoria Gotti in that Gotti Family biopic, and then she was somehow tossed from the film?
The world wasn’t terribly surprised when Kim Kardashian announced her divorce to Kris Humphries on Monday morning.
After their $10 million dollar wedding, the two decided to try to work it out for a whole 72 days before they threw in the towel. That’s a hell of a lot of money for such a short wedding, but no worries, I’m sure E! will make it all back with the impending Kardashian Divorce Special.
This isn’t Kim’s first divorce rodeo, either. She was married to record producer Damon Thomas for four years. By Hollywood standards, that’s actually a reasonable amount of time.
But now, Kim will join the ranks of plenty of other celebs who divorced shortly after walking down the isle. Here are the shortest celebrity marriages of all time.
Elizabeth Taylor and Conrad Hilton: 7 Months: Yes, Elizabeth Taylor was married to a Hilton. Only 205 days after marrying Conrad “Nicky” Hilton, Taylor went through her first divorce. She told a California court that Hilton was “indifferent to me and used abusive language.”

The magazine is releasing its ‘Heroes Issue’, which is basically celebs talking about other celebs they like. Kate Winslet likes Elizabeth Taylor. Miley Cyrus likes Joan Jett. Lady Gaga likes Lady Gaga.
Winslet worked with photographer Mario Testino for her cover. With dark brows, pale lips and a string of pearls, Winslet looks stunningly like Taylor.
In the mag, the actress says that she knew from a young age what her calling was in life:

Her publicist explained: "The service was scheduled to begin at 2 pm but at Miss Taylor's request started late. Miss Taylor had left instructions that it was to begin at least 15 minutes later than publicly scheduled, with the announcement, 'She even wanted to be late for her own funeral.'"
Elizabeth was laid to rest at Forest Lawn in Glendale on Thursday close to the late Michael Jackson. The one-hour service was officiated by Rabbi Jerry Cutler and included a reading by Colin Farrell (yes that Colin), apparently they were close friends.
Her $11,000 casket was covered with gardenias, violets and lily of the valley.
A public service in her honor is expected to he held at a later date. May you rest in peace Liz, you won't be forgotten.

Liz will be laid to rest at California’s Forest Lawn Cemetery in a private service today.
According to TMZ, she'll would be buried in the crypt next to her parents at the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery.
Her death certificate lists Mt. Sinai as the mortuary and Forest Lawn as her final resting place. Liz's close friend, the late Michael Jackson, is also buried there.
Liz died early Wednesday morning from congestive heart failure. She's been hospitalized for a while at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
"She was surrounded by her children- Michael Wilding, Christopher Wilding, Liza Todd, and Maria Burton," Taylor's publicist, Sally Morrison, said in a statement.
Her family asks that in lieu of flowers, contributions be made to her AIDS Foundation HERE.
