I'm convinced there's a black cloud above Lindsay Lohan. Anyone associated with her ends up running into some trouble of their own. Like we first reported a few days ago, pictures of Lohan and
Vanessa Minnillo pretending to cut themselves spread like wild fire on the internet, well it looks like
these pictures might now cost Minnillo her job.
Minnillo was host of MTV's "TRL" and the New York correspondent for "Entertainment Tonight," both Viacom shows, until her contract ended in April. The current girlfriend of Nick Lachey did not renew with either show.
While friends of Minnillo insist it was she who decided not to renew the contract with "ET," insiders say her bosses at CBS Paramount haven't been happy with her for a while. Sounds like these pictures are the perfect excuse to finally fire her.
According to Page Six, when producers flew her to Los Angeles to cover the Grammy’s, "she was extremely high maintenance," said one source. "She insisted they fly her own hair and makeup people and her personal assistant out with her every time she flew to L.A. She only flew first class and stayed at the Four Seasons, and then she didn't want to work.
"Vanessa wants to be a celebrity, not interview them," said the source. "She wouldn't conduct post-show interviews because she wanted to party. She expected to be paid a full-time salary for a part-time job."
A rep for Minnillo denied any "diva behavior" and told Page Six, "She chose to leave 'ET' because her contract ended. This is the first I've heard about any bad behavior."
