Wow. Someone is a little behind.

It's been awhile since Michael Lohan has used his daughter's celebrity to garner some attention for himself, but according to a new report, Papa Lohan is back to his old tricks. This time, he is insisting that Lindsay Lohan was tweaked on prescription pills the night she hosted Saturday Night Live earlier this year and laments that they hindered her from living up to her potential. He explains:

Well well well, it seems like Barack Obama had a bit of fun in High School!

Apparently Obama was part of something called the "Choom Gang," which was just a group of boys that loved basketball and good times.

Also, Choom is a verb that means 'to smoke marijuana.'

Here's a little excerpt from a new book about it:

As a member of the Choom Gang, Barry Obama was known for starting a few pot-smoking trends. The first was called "TA," short for "total absorption." To place this in the physical and political context of another young man who would grow up to be president, TA was the antithesis of Bill Clinton's claim that as a Rhodes scholar at Oxford he smoked dope but never inhaled.

Along with TA, Barry popularized the concept of "roof hits": when they were chooming in the car all the windows had to be rolled up so no smoke blew out and went to waste; when the pot was gone, they tilted their heads back and sucked in the last bit of smoke from the ceiling.

Barry also had a knack for interceptions. When a joint was making the rounds, he often elbowed his way in, out of turn, shouted "Intercepted!," and took an extra hit. No one seemed to mind.

No one seemed to mind because people who smoke pot are the most laid back people ever! HA!

We honestly don't think this is going to be effecting Obama at all, and at least it isn't a story about horrible bullying like in Mitt Romney's case.

Though, we're not sure how you can go through experiences like that and NOT try and legalize it later in life!

LOLz!

This is fab news!

Tila Tequila is reportedly doing well after rehab -- which is great, because she was in rough shape when she went in.

She was dealing with drug addiction AND an eating disorder, so it obviously a hard month-long program in a Florida rehab center for her.

Especially since she was hospitalized following a reported brain aneurysm and drug overdose that nearly killed her!

People even say the overdose wasn't accidental -- so we're glad she was convinced to get help!

Apparently she's even back to her original weight, says a source:

"Tila is a really small girl to begin with so she usually weighs around 100 pounds, but at the height of her sickness she was down to around 75 pounds. She began to realize she had a problem when she started to see her bones protruding from her body. It really scared her. It's still an everyday battle for [Tila], but at least she's sober and healthy."

We're SO glad!

Addiction is a terrible affliction, and we wouldn't wish it on anyone.

We hope she stays strong through the hard times ahead!

Testify!

Kim Kardashian and a team of HIGHly priced lawyers want YOU to know she ain’t no pill poppin’ Princess.

A recent report in the Australian tabloid NW claimed Kimmy was excessively taking Valium and sleeping pills to the point where sister Khloe Kardashian was majorly koncerned.

However, sources say not only is Kim 100% prescription drug free, she doesn’t even

One of music’s many mysteries: SOLVED!

The famous — and arguably most beautiful — Red Hot Chili Peppers track Under The Bridge chronicles a day in frontman Anthony Kiedis’ life when his struggle with hard drugs became a fight for survival.

Anthony has never revealed the location of the elusive bridge mentioned in the heartfelt tune, but recent investigations seem to have pinpointed the mystery structure!

We honestly didn't see this coming: there are reports that Kim Kardashian has a growing pill problem!

It's apparently to the point where Khloé is very upset and concerned over it, and we all know she won't stand for it either.

Here's what a source said:

"She's freaking everyone out right now. She's taking Valium and sleeping pills. The last time she self-medicated was when she split from Reggie Bush [two years ago,] when everything felt impossible. Khloé's really freaked out by it: she found a bottle of pills and knew straight away what Kim was doing."

Apparently she even gave out a non-negotiable ultimatum: get clean in three weeks, or she's going to get Kris Jenner and Kanye involved!

The source continued:

"It started with just a little bit to take the edge off or help her sleep, but she could become dependent upon pills, which worries her. I think she's secretly pleased Khloé found out because she'd have struggled to stop on her own."

Kim! This is not the way to deal with things! We hope you can find it in you to help yourself, if this turns out to be true!

If you're over-worked... take a break! Nobody would blame you!

It's not worth it!

We hope this is all just some sort of misunderstanding!

During his recent interview with MTV, Mike Sorrentino -- The Situation -- actually expanded on what it was like to be in rehab, now that he's clean.

We're just glad he's sober!

Here's what he said about the time in the facility:

"In the beginning, for sure, when I was (at the facility) in Utah, I'd wake up and just be extremely disappointed with myself. Like, 'I can't believe I got here. How did I get here?' You hear stories all the time, you know, of celebrities and people just not even waking up. That could have been me."

He even asserts that his problem was never booze, and didn't include cocaine or marijuana addiction:

"I was never drunk (on Jersey Shore). I was the guy that was the ladies' man. You can't get girls if you… can't speak to them."

Regardless, he should probably stay away from that stuff so he doesn't start substituting for the loss of painkillers.

Even though it won't be the same without him, we're not so sure it's such a good idea to hit the clubs in the show -- which he wants to do -- because we're fine with it feeling a little weird if it means he's healthy and sober!

Keep it up, Mike! You can do it!
