Lindsay Lets Her Voice Be Heard

Lindsay Lohan left any doubts about whether she would lip-sync her New Year's Eve performance in the dust Thursday night with a public sound check in Times Square. The Mean Girls star, clad in a long animal-print coat, belted out her single "Rumors" five times while running energetically around the stage during the hour-long pre-show performance. "Many people walked right past her without even looking," says a spy. "They didn't know who she was until well into the song. Once they realized it was Lindsay Lohan, they clapped after each performance." She went on to wow the audience during MTV's Iced Out New Year's Eve 2005 show before jet-setting off to party with Paris and Nicky Hilton in Miami.

Daily Insider for February 28, 2004

February 28, 2004SPECIAL OSCARS EDITION While filming the Oscar-nominated film The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, Viggo Mortensen was so captivated by New Zealand's natural beauty that he wanted to make sure the crew appreciated it, and not from a helicopter window. "He wanted to drive five, six, eight hours – sometimes two days – to get (to certain locations)," says producer Barrie Osborne. On one occasion, Mortensen (who is also an accomplished painter and photographer), costar Orlando Bloom and Osborne thought the sunrise on the South Island was so incredible that Mortensen persuaded the crew to camp out so it could be captured on film the next morning. "We got some steaks and barbecued, had big campfires and a lot of red wine, and told stories all night long," says Osborne.
