Video: Heath Ledger Memorialized In Rap

Movies:

Miley and her Aussie boyfriend of 10 months, Liam Hemsworth, co-star in the latest adaption of a Nicholas Sparks weepie; this one, called The Last Song, comes out on Wednesday and features Miley as a teen rebel from New York who gets sent down to a seaside Southern town to reconnect with her estranged father (Greg Kinnear). There, she meets a boy and they fall in love but like any Sparks tale, this one might not have a totally pat ending. It also doesn’t have Rachel McAdams and Ryan Gosling. Still, we’re interested in seeing how Miley carries a dramatic role versus sunny Hannah Montana fare. If she plays her cards right, she could pull a Hathaway and score a Rachel Getting Married/Oscar nomination with darker material.

Clash of the Titans arrives Friday, with Liam Neeson as Zeus — we likey! — Sam Worthington as Perseus and Ralph Fiennes as Hades, because playing the evil Voldemort is not good enough. Why is Gerard Butler doing rom-coms and NOT THIS?

Also on tap for Friday: Tyler Perry’s Why Did I Get Married Too? We loved the first one — if only for Jill Scott’s wrenching turn as a wronged wife — and for the sequel, Janet Jackson chews some major dramatic scenery as a woman whose marriage is on the rocks; she did not have to reach far to channel her character’s anger and distress. Her brother Michael Jackson died while she was filming the movie in the Bahamas, and production halted so she could grieve with her family.

TV:

Remember the awesome ’90s movie, 10 Things I Hate About You, co-starring Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger? Well, now that film is serving as inspiration for the ABC Family sitcom, which debuts new episodes starting tonight. Crushable’s Amanda Ernst has the inside scoop.

Monday also brings the season-finale of Greek, and a brand-new episode of the Travel Channel’s No Reservations, wherein Anthony Bourdain visits central Vietnam highlands. Vietnam is Tony’s Shangri-la; Sweden is his vision of Hell.

The ABC sci-fi series V co-starring Scott Wolf and Elizabeth Mitchell returns Tuesday to round out season one; the show, about the unwelcome arrival of nefarious alien visitors, could not ask for a better lead-in on the heels of Lost, which is kicking ass and making us crazy in its series finale. Also on Wednesday: The National Geographic Channel premieres Rebel Monkeys, about a gang of bothersome-yet-sacred monkeys holding fort in Jaipur, India.

New episodes of Fox’s Bones and Fringe arrive Thursday, so as to not interfere with the network’s cash cow American Idol.

Music:

After a brief delay, Usher is ready to drop his latest album Raymond v. Raymond on Tuesday. It’s a good one, since Usher does NOT do mediocre. That said, we have the sinking feeling that someday in the near future, Usher will be opening for the horrifying national phenomenon known as Justin Bieber, the protege he plucked from obscurity and introduced to the masses. The protege who will one day stab him in the back and steal his girlfriend.

Jake Gyllenhaal Defends Heath Ledger In Bar Fight

“r.i.p. heath l,” Lindsay Tweeted.

Heath Ledger passed away on Jan 22, 2008 at the age of 28.

mr. ‘ilbrunningaround’ :) miss you…. more than words can explain

The first few anniversaries of a close friend, relative or loved one can always be hard. And Heath Ledger definitely left this earth too early. I guess calling him Mr. “Ilbrunningaround” was a knickname Lindsay had for him.

I’ve been watching his 1999 movie 10 Things I Hate About You lately because it’s been on cable quite a bit. As an actor, I miss him too.

Lindsay Lohan misses Heath Ledger

And if Michael Lohan’s relationship with his daughter wasn’t bad enough, this one obviously has Lindsay very upset.

“My father knows nothing other than how to sell stories for money instead of getting a real job like normal people do, including myself,” Lindsay told Gossip Cop.

Lindsay told Gossip Cop she hopes he takes the money he is making to pay the child support he need to be paying.

“I hate him so much,” Lindsay told Gossip Cop.

Michael Lohan’s most recent release to RadarOnline.com has Lindsay’s mom Dina Lohan discussing Lindsay’s dirty laundry in a one-sided conversation where she reveals that Lindsay was dating Heath Ledger around the time of his death.

Dina Lohan also discusses Samantha Ronson’s relationship with Lindsay.

Dina Lohan has spoke up to E! Online about Michael’s personal attacks.

“The tapes were from a long time ago, and for a father to stoop this low is unforgivable,” Dina Lohan told E! Online. “My ex-husband has been in and out of jail for 10 years. My children and I gave him a chance to get to know them again, and he clearly blew that chance!”

Dina Lohan says Lindsay’s dad never should have had the opportunity or access to record phone calls like the one involving Heath Ledger in the first place.

“I have had a criminal order of protection from the domestic violence sector since 2005,” Dina Lohan said, adding that the order extends through 2011. “He was not supposed to even be harassing me by phone.
My heart is breaking for my children that he could do this. He has no visitation anymore and is six months behind in child support. The authorities have been alerted!”

But will Michael Lohan stop? Probably not.
