Mark Pasetsky's Cover Awards

Star magazine pulls out its Star without make-up issue.

I’m not that excited by this cover and I don’t think readers will be either.

Is anyone talking about Julia Roberts?

I’m not surprised by the Nicole Richie picture.

I’ve seen that Kelly Ripa picture.

And, Katherine Heigl looks good either way.

It would’ve been bold for Star to take a risk and make Lindsay Lohan & Samantha Ronson the main cover.  Everyone’s talking about their romance online.  How it would have done on the newsstand is questionable - but it’s a hot story.

Bottom Line: A so-so week for Star, but that’s what happens when you play it safe.

Lindsay Lohan appears to be getting more comfortable showing off her romance with Samantha Ronson, according to the Daily Mail Online.

The actress was spotted holding hands with her girlfriend while taking a break from shooting her new film project, Labor Pains.

Friends say the couple are ‘both really happy,’ adding that Lindsay ‘feels safe’ with Samantha, who is the sister of music producer Mark Ronson.

Lindsay Lohan and girlfriend Samantha Ronson looked happier than ever as they enjoyed a romantic weekend in Los Angeles, according to the Daily Mail Online.

The pair proved inseparable during the actress’ breaks from filming the upcoming comedy Labor Pains, hitting a burger restaurant for lunch on Saturday before heading out for a shopping trip to Kidrobot on Melrose Avenue on Sunday.

Will one of the celebrities finally take the plunge and go with the Lindsay’s gay line?

I think so.

Pasetsky’s Celebrity Weekly Prediction #3

Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson certainly looked like more than friends in this picture taken in Cannes.

According to the New York Post, “Ronson, an out-of-the-closet lesbian, and Lohan played the parts of Sapphic sweethearts last week - walking hand in hand, nuzzling each other’s necks and canoodling all while attending a party on Sean “Diddy” Combs’ yacht at the Cannes Film Festival.”

Will one of the celebrity weeklies go for the infamous “Yes, Lindsay’s Gay” cover line?

They’ve got the photo proof. Will they get the reporting?

Tune-in Wednesday.

WTF.  Click here for details.
