After Billy Ray Cyrus told GQ that Hannah Montana “destroyed” his family, he added that he "never made one commissioned dollar or dime" off of his daughter Miley, but now a source at Disney is responding to the claim, calling it “ludicrous.”

The source also reveals to THR that both Miley and Billy Ray have "been clear with [Disney] about their desire to distance themselves from [the company]", and they "saw it coming for a long time. She wanted to mature herself, but it kind of backfired. Her future without Disney is TBD.”

Miley has two movies set for release this year, and given how many records she's sold since she burst onto the scene in 2001, it appears as though a split from Disney wouldn't be detrimental to her career. Or would it?

Talk about an unforgettable commercial.

In a new political ad produced by MoveOn.org, House star Lisa Edelstein challenges Republican legislation by advocating for women's reproductive rights.

Edelstein, decked out in a 1950's ensemble, begins by narrating:

"Decades ago, women suffered through horrifying back alley abortions. Or, they used dangerous methods when they had no other recourse. So when the Republican Party launched an all out assault on women's health, pushing bills to limit access to vital services, why is the GOP trying to send women back ... to the back alley?"

The ad ends with Edelstein in modern clothes, while frantically reaching for a wire coat hanger in her closet. A bit eerie, but she definitely leaves an impression with this message.

The ad comes on the heels of a decision made by lawmakers in South Dakota Tuesday, who moved to expand the definition of "justifiable homicide" by including those who seek to harm a human fetus by any means.

Whether you're pro-life or pro-choice, this ad will make you take a closer look at your stance.

Michael Lohan is calling out the Late Show with David Letterman producers for their statement claiming an unauthorized friend of Lindsay's booked her now-cancelled appearance in which she was set to read the Top Ten list.

Papa Lohan, who says he booked Lindsay's appearance himself, tells X17online exclusively:

"They are liars. I set this up entirely with Lindsay's permission. It went through Lindsay and she really wanted to do it. It was all set, but at the last minute, Lou Taylor and Leslie Sloane canceled her appearance."

The statement from Worldwide Pants went on to say, "Someone purporting to be a friend of Lindsay's reached out to the show yesterday, allegedly on her behalf, and booked her to appear. Clearly, this person was not authorized to make commitments on her behalf."

Lohan adds, "All lies. There was never a no-authorization situation going on. I had full authority to do this."

Michael explains that after Letterman made fun of Lindsay in a recent Top Ten list ... alluding that she stole a Grammy, he told Lilo it would be funny to send the host a Grammy with a note that read, "You got me."

Lohan goes on to explain Late Show producers found out about the Grammy joke and they reached out to Lindsay to be a part of the show ... calling her "a good sport" and claiming Dave said she was "funnier than some of my writers."

Breast cancer survivor Christina Applegate gave birth to baby girl Sadie Grace on January 27, and since then, mommy life has definitely changed the actress for the better.

The Married With Children star resides in L.A. with musician fiancé Martyn LeNoble, a Dutch bassist and founding member of Porno for Pyros, and they are over the moon with their new little bundle of joy.

The Hall Pass star opened up to PEOPLE, revealing:

"She's healed me in so many ways. She's just made my life so much better. She's opened my whole soul. I felt my heart literally open up for the first time and like wrap itself around her. It was profound. And I'm more in love with her every minute of the day."

Considering Applegate opted for a double mastectomy, after being diagnosed with breast cancer in 2008, she definitely appreciates the little things in life that much more.

The actress reveals:

"I want to be the ultimate burper and diaper-changer, I want to be the ultimate at all of it. Sometimes I stand there going, 'I'm not doing any of this right!' And then I get this big man belch out of her and I go, 'Ah, we accomplished this together'."

Congrats to the happy couple! Now when's the wedding?
