In fact,
Lindsay had 200,000 FEWER viewers than Oprah Winfrey's sit-down interview with the actress that aired on OWN last August!
While the new docu-reality series on Lohan's post-rehab life snagged a mere 693,000 viewers, OWN president Erik Logan called the launch a success, pointing out that the premiere episode had the network’s highest rating in the Sunday hour in the last 27 weeks with women 25-54.
“We had set out to try to attract a different type of viewer and audience to the network and we felt like we did that — especially young women demo which is up by triple digits,” Logan said. "We thought this was a great opportunity for us — we feel great about the young end of the numbers, and the premiere in a time slot we never programmed before on a most competitive night of television.”
Despite the positive remarks from the network, it should be noted that Oprah's exclusive Lance Armstrong interview snagged 3.2 million viewers last year. Our guess? Either people just don't care about Lilo anymore or the program is too sugar-coated. I mean, the 27-year-old starlet didn't even cry in the first teaser for the show, and the best quote Oprah had was "cut the bullsh*t." We kinda saw this coming...

Jennifer Lopez cover's
InStyle's April 2014 issue, and the 44-year-old singer/actress chatted with the mag about love, family and aging gracefully.
So is there a reason why she's seldom single? It certainly seems that way. “Look, I don’t love being alone," she tells the mag. "I don’t. I can’t beat myself up for that. What I have to do is figure out why I don’t like it. Why am I not OK being alone? And can I ever be OK facing that? In the past, love for me has always meant forever, and sure, you still nurse some of those fantasies, but I don’t try to force it anymore. I hung on to my fairy-tale ideals for a long time. But where I am now, what I’ve been through, there are no rules. There are just lots of ways it can turn out instead of just one. There are so many different kinds of happiness, not just the one you learned about when you were five years old.”
And speaking of five year olds, what does she have to say about her kids? "Emme is obsessed with makeup," she says of her young daughter. "She puts blush on her eyes, shadow on her face; it's very artistic. And she loves my shoes. She's been walking around in my heels ever since she was a year old." Sounds like trouble!
On aging in Hollywood, J. Lo says, “The turning point was a couple years ago, when the September issue of women’s magazines had cover girls that were all over 40 – Jennifer Aniston, Halle Berry, Sandra Bullock, Julia Roberts, me. It was hard not to be happy. That says something about our society. People who used to believe their life – or at least their life as a performer – was over at 28 or some ungodly age! God, when I think of myself back then, I had no idea who I was. I think I’m barely getting that under control now.”

Kylie Jenner shopped at Fred Segal on Monday, and when asked those pesky rumors that her dad Bruce is reportedly getting a sex change, she ignored photographers. Well, not entirely ... Kylie muttered, "Annooooying!" in a sing-songy voice when she hopped in her Mercedes SUV. I guess that's to be expected from a 16 year old...
Bruce stepped out in Malibu yesterday and showed off his dramatically thicker hairline, and after his Adam's apple surgery in February, there were a handful of reports that the reality star was looking to have surgery to become a woman. It seems crazy, but there were also stories that surfaces back in 2012 that Bruce enjoys wearing lingerie, and from his long hair to his nails, one has to wonder what's really going on...

Jenna Dewan and Channing Tatum welcomed daughter Everly back in June, and since then the 33-year-old actress has lost a whopping 33 pounds. When we caught her out and about in Los Angeles on Monday, she showed off her amazing figure in a tank top and a pair of leggings. So we're dying to know ... what's her secret to looking so fab?
Earlier this month Jenna told
Us Weekly that a vegan diet and intense 90-minute workouts are what helped her shed the weight ... and keep it off. "The second I found out I was pregnant, I called [my trainer] Jen Johnson," Dewan said. "We found areas we wanted to target: arms and legs. I wanted to keep the muscles alive. Working out kept me sane. I would feel a burst of energy and all my hormones would regulate."
Dewan has reportedly been a vegetarian since she was 13 ... guess that explains the salad she's hanging on to! Jenna's daily diet includes fresh vegetables, oatmeal, salads with chopped-up veggie burger and vegan enchiladas. Jenna works out four days a week with her trainer for 90 minutes a pop, and also does cardio dance workouts, hiking and strength-training on her own.
Dewan added, "I stayed in shape [throughout my pregnancy]," she said. "I was working out almost every single day or walking or hiking ... I think a lot of women find out they're pregnant and are like, 'Let's go crazy and eat ice cream every day!' To me, it was, 'I'm growing a human being, and I want to give this little soul the best nutrition I can.'"

Guess he's not losing any sleep over it!
Chris Martin made his way through LAX yesterday, and after politely signing autographs for fans, he was asked if he's concerned about the rumors wife Gwyneth Paltrow cheated on him with entertainment lawyer Kevin Yorn.
The Coldplay front man didn't seem bothered by the question at all, and even smiled and waved to photographers before saying simply, "Nice to meet you."
He's such a gracious gentleman that we hope the Goop queen isn't deceiving him!

President Barack Obama is trying to get the young people to vote … err we mean sign up for health care -- and he's doing it in a funny way!
The 44th president sat down amid shrubbery and next to Zach Galifianakis in the hit Funny or Die series Between Two Ferns.
Besides plugging his Affordable Care Act, Obama spars with the king of awkward during the six and a half minute video … and it's pretty damn awesome!
When Galifianakis asks the Commander in Chief, “What’s it like to be the last black president,” Obama responds dead pan with, “Seriously? What’s it like for this to be that last time you ever talk to a president?”
We love how Obama sticks it to The Hangover actor! Watch, laugh and learn about health care!

We hope he's OK!
Chris Kattan arrived at LAX last night, and the actor was asked if planned on following through with attending AA meetings as part of his DUI charge stemming from driving erratically and crashing into a car on the freeway while under the influence of prescription pills.
The SNL alum was asked by photographers if he thinks he shouldn't have to attend the AA meetings, but he insisted he didn't have a problem with the judge's decision.
"No, I don't feel that way," he explained, before adding that he was planning to comply.
Wished good luck in rehab, he snapped back, "I'm not in rehab!"
The funny man also confessed that he didn't like flying, so his flustered demeanor could have been the result of post-flight jitters!
