Michael Lohan took a break from his family drama to star in Swedish pop sensation Ida Bogren's upcoming video for the song, Zero To Psycho.
Lohan tells X17online exclusively:
"It was a lot of fun. They liked me so much that they're having me film for the German version, too. Ida is going to be the next Lady Gaga."
As for his role in the video, Michael says, "I'm a snooty person at a highfalutin party, and here comes a performer and she wasn't in the class of people that were there. We look down on her."
Michael tells us the video won't be ready for a couple weeks, but in the finished version he "spills a drink on his video girlfriend's breasts and licks it off her chest."

She's already played a stripper in the box office bomb, I Know Who Killed Me, but now Lindsay Lohan is trying to revive her flagging acting career by ... playing a porn star?
Lohan's photographer pal Tyler Shields (yep, that photographer pal) confirmed that she'd be starring as porn-star Linda Lovelace, who was made famous by the XXX film Deep Throat, in a new movie titled Inferno.
Shields says he's in talks with the film's director Matthew Wilder to do the photography for the movie's poster. "[Wilder] contacted me and asked me if I would do the promos for the movie," Shields told Eonline.
Well, if the photos are anything like the bloody ones he took of Lindz recently, then they should be about as scandalous as the film itself!
The producers plan on announcing the project at the Cannes Film Festival later this month, but it looks like the cat's already out of the bag!

But are the numbers really all that good?
Katie Cassidy (of Melrose Place) and co. headlined the Nightmare on Elm Street remake and the pic unsurprisingly came in at number one at the box office with $32.2 million. Kudos! But in comparison with other recent horror flicks, that amount isn't all that impressive...
Nightmare earned $15.8 mil on Friday, which is strong, but Friday the 13th raked in $19 mil last year and Hannibal earned $18 mil way back in 2001. Plus, the numbers then dropped toward the end of the weekend - probably because the film received wretched reviews, even by scary movie standards.
Are teens getting tired of slasher pics? It probably helped that Elm Street had Cassidy from MP and Kellan Lutz from the Twilight series in it, but did it help enough?
Think there should be a whole new Freddy Kruger franchise with Jackie Earle Haley?

Over the weekend Rihanna flaunted more than her smile while out shopping in Paris this weekend - cameras caught the Good Girl Gone Bad singer buying a pink vibrator at sex shop Toys Me!
"Well it certainly was a surprise when we spotted pop icon Rihanna stepping out of her van to get into a sex shop at night on rue de Seze in Paris," X17online's French correspondent tells us. "First she takes a good look around, then goes to the dvd cabin, and then plays with vibrators in her hands. She seems to enjoy the variety of toys the XXX store offers, and it definitely makes her giggle and laugh as she's adding items to her shopping cart!"
Apparently Rihanna enjoyed it so much that she went home with a pink vibrator she picked out in the store.
Perhaps she's bummed boyfriend Matt Kemp, who's busy starting his season with the LA Dodgers, wasn't able to join her on her European tour.

Conan O'Brien is finally speaking out about getting the boot as the host of The Tonight Show. The comedian took a break from The Legally Prohibited From Being Funny On Television Tour and sat down with CBS' 60 Minutes. Up until now, under his exit contract with NBC, the funnyman wasn't able to talk about the situation.
Coco doesn't hold back from explaining his disappointment in Jay Leno for handling The Tonight Show situation the way he did. O'Brien says, "I hope he's happy with his decision ... I would do it differently." According to Coco, he and Jay haven't spoken a word to each other since the late-night switch.
He goes on to say, "If I had surrendered The Tonight Show and handed it over to somebody publicly and wished them well ... I would not have come back six months later. But that's me...everyone has there own way of doing things."
Ouch! Something tells us that Coco doesn't support Team Jay.
