Amanda Bynes May Face One YEAR of Involuntary Confinement <b>...</b>

Posted: 15 Oct 2014 04:06 AM PDT

Amanda Bynes is likely headed for another conservatorship, but her parents won't be at the helm. Her doctors want her confined and medicated for up to a YEAR.

After her July 2013 hospitalization, her parents Lynn and Rick were given a conservatorship, granting them control over her legal, medical and fiscal decisions.

She was ultimately released, only to go off the rails once more when the conservatorship lapsed last month. Now here she is, under a 5150 psych hold again.

Given how pissed Bynes is at her parents, and how severe her mental illness appears to be, another conservatorship managed by doctors looks imminent.

One that can keep her confined and medicated for up to a year against her will. The plan, according to TMZ sources, is to place her under an LPS Hold.

At the behest of doctors, a judge can sign off on this if a patient is "gravely disabled as a result of a mental disorder or impairment by chronic alcoholism."

Sadly, this is likely true of Amanda, and if she's being cared for in the hospital or another secure facility for a long period of time, that may be best for her.

The LPS Hold is far more stringent than what her parents - who can't legally force medication on Amanda or physically restrain her - could get in court.

Since her parents conned her into the hospital with the help of Sam Lutfi, and their relationship with her was strained anyway, they have little sway with her.

Doctors successfully sought an LPS Hold on Amanda after she lit driveway on fire and doused her dog with gasoline last year, but that has since expired.

Once she is fully diagnosed near the end of the 14-day temporary hold she's currently under, medical professionals will likely go the LPS route again.

We wish her the very best and hope that this tragic and difficult situation can be remedied, even if it takes a lot of effort and time and people to make it so.

Snoop Dogg Apologizes to Iggy Azalea; T.I. Squashes the Beef <b>...</b>

Well, it's over. One of the most unexpected rap beefs in the history of hip hop has come to an equally surprising conclusion.

The Iggy Azalea-Snoop Dogg feud that began when Doggfather posted an insulting Instagram pic directed at Iggy has officially been resloved, with Iggy's mentor T.I. stepping in to play peacemaker.

Snoop Dogg Apologizes to Iggy Azalea

Snoop uploaded the above video to Instagram just moments ago, and though he never mentions I-G-G-Y by name, it's pretty clear whom he's apologizing to. 

"It's officially over," Snoop says to the camera. "No more bad talk. I apologize."

Of course, the stoned smirk that spreads across Snoop's face at the end makes us feel like the apology might be less than 100% sincere, but we're sure Iggy will take what she can get.

It's hard to remember a celebrity feud that escalated this quickly. In less than a day, things went from playful Instagram chiding to Snoop's crew threatening to sic Nicki Minaj on Iggy.

Iggy's boyfriend Nick Young got involved in the beef and before anyone realized what was happening, a full-blown inter-generational hip hop beef was afoot.

Anyway, it's all over now, and we're glad to see it peacefully resolved. But we have to say - no one recorded a diss track?! Come on, guys, you're rappers!

She took the name "Iggy Azalea" from her childhood dog and the street she grew up on.

Kylie Jenner Flaunts Cleavage, Lip Injections on Instagram - The <b>...</b>

Posted: 16 Oct 2014 11:02 AM PDT

By her own admission, Kylie Jenner is obsessed with Instagram, and she knows what she's doing when it comes to photo-sharing.

Kylie's got such a firm grasp on how to keep her millions of followers entertained that her selfie skills earned her a spot on Time magazine's list of the most influential teens of 2014.

With all the benefits she's reaped thus far, it's unlikely that Kylie will cool it with the selfies any time soon, and we can't blame her. Even so, pics like the one below definitely make us wonder where this girl's parents are:

That's Kylie and her lip injections rocking a typically age inappropriate outfit, and this shot gives us the feeling that even Kylie realizes she's growing up too fast.

Something about that look on her face says, "Wow, I'm 17 and this is gonna be on the Internet forever."

Of course, KJ is running with a much older crowd these days, so maybe she doesn't realize what a bad idea it is for her to rush right into adulthood like this.

Kylie is dating Tyga, a 24-year-old rapper with a child of his own who was - until recently - engaged to one of Kim Kardashian's best friends.

Hopefully Kylie will pull a Kim (ditch the douche and not settle down until her 30s) and not a Kourtney (settle down with the douche and pop out a million kids).

The life-altering event took place last night in front of Cinderella's Castle at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida. There's a reason they refer to this location as The Happiest Place on Earth.

"I'm very excited to begin this next chapter of my life with the woman who stole my heart," Bleu tells People of the engagement.

Bleu proposed via an engagement ring he had placed inside a glass slipper, immediately prior to Disney World's famous fireworks show. Talk about a romantic, well-timed plan!

He met Clements in a Toronto grocery store in 2011 and has been with his now-fiance ever since.

We send the newlyweds-to-be our very best wishes!

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher have a wedding to plan and a baby to welcome. What an exciting year to come!

Sam Lutfi: Amanda Bynes&#39; Parents Taking Legal Advice From Shady <b>...</b>

Posted: 14 Oct 2014 01:21 PM PDT

Sam Lutfi played a key role in engineering the ruse that landed Amanda Bynes in treatment, but is his continued involvement in her saga cause for concern?

  • Amanda Bynes Pout

As previously reported, Amanda Bynes was placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold at a Pasadena mental hospital last week after flying back to Los Angeles from N.Y.

Her friend Sam Lutfi, who was once Britney Spears' manager and bizarrely linked to that star at the time of her 5150 hold, was instrumental in getting her there.

Not surprisingly, Bynes is far from pleased about all of this.

Already deeply distrustful of her family and friends, she's incredibly pissed at her parents and the ruse that landed her in a mental institution against her will.

Yet Lutfi, who convinced her she was meeting with an attorney to sue her parents, is reportedly still close to Bynes' parents and is even giving them advice.

"Amanda is disgusted with Sam and has been openly telling anyone who will listen that she hates him for inserting himself into her family," a source says.

"Even though Amanda is suffering from serious mental health issues, she is lucid enough to know that Sam is someone she wants nothing to do with."

"The more troubling development is that Amanda's parents have become enthralled with him. In particular, her dad Rick thinks Sam is a great guy."

"Sam is even giving Rick legal advice! What law school did he go to?!"

We don't know about this story, most notably because how would Amanda's inner thoughts be known by Radar when she's being monitored by a team of doctors?

Also, she trusted Lutfi a lot as recently as last week.

According to the allegd insider, reports that Amanda "hates" her parents "are clearly exaggerated," however. "Is Amanda angry at her parents? Of course."

However, "she was the last time when she was placed on a involuntary psychiatric hold" and once she stabilizes, the source adds, things "will reset for the better."

"Stories focusing on Amanda's feelings towards her parents are clearly being planted by people in Sam Lutfi's camp," the source added, for reasons unknown.

"Remember, this is someone who has absolutely no professional experience managing or dealing with celebrities [beyond] being Britney Spears' errand boy."

We remember.

The sleuth notes that at the mental facility Friday, Lutfi had his lawyers present, despite the fact the Bynes family attorney was already there with her parents.

"It was shocking that Sam had the nerve to send his own attorneys ... what was Sam's motivation? His attorneys have no knowledge of Amanda's case and history."

"All it did was create a more chaotic environment. The problem is that Amanda's dad, Rick, thinks that Sam has some credibility, despite his track record."

"Rick believes that Sam is trying to redeem himself after all of the Britney drama," although it sounds like fortunately, "Lynn is definitely more skeptical of Sam."
