Read this and more and today's top stories! In an interview with the magazine, as previewed on MTV.com, the fashion-obsessed actress, who recently appeared at the Council of Fashion Designers Awards gala with Karl Lagerfeld, says what she'd really like to is open her own Paris boutique, but with conditions.
"I'd only do it if Karl Lagerfeld was interested [in having his clothes there]," says Lohan. "Or Tom Ford. Or Alexander McQueen. Or Jean Paul Gaultier. Or Proenza Schouler."
Besides demonstrating an impressive knowledge of living fashion designers, Lohan also tells 'Interview' magazine in its June issue that she once begged the staff at a Chanel store to let her work there. "They're like, 'Lindsay, you're on the wrong side - that's where the salespeople stand.' And I'm like, 'No, just let me do it, please. I'll work here for the day.'"

Heath Ledger Breaks Down and Cries
Heath can't take the heat from the paparazziIn a quite vivid illustration of why celebrities should muzzle their parents once they become stars, Heath Ledger's father has told an Australian newspaper that his son cried all night after being attacked with water pistols by the paparazzi at the Sydney premiere of 'Brokeback Mountain.'
According to a report in Australia's Daily Telegraph, Ledger made the decision to move to the US – and specifically Brooklyn – after the apparently traumatic experience of having to introduce the gay cowboy flick "soaking wet." Says Kim Ledger, an automotive engineer, "He rang me [after the premiere] and said, 'Dad, that's it-sell the house.'"
The Daily Telegraph also reports that the elder Mr. Ledger bought his son's house for him in 2004 for $3.37 million US and sold it at a tidy profit in March for $5.2 million US.

Kate Moss' Former Flame Flees to Portugal
Pete Doherty, the troubled rocker and a former boyfriend of model Kate Moss, has checked himself into a rehab clinic in Portugal. According to British music magazine NME, the Babyshambles frontman decided to undergo treatment for his various drug problems on his own volition, unlike his several previous, and abortive, attempts to get clean, as he did last November in Arizona. Earlier this month, Doherty was arrested after a syringe was found on an Easyjet flight he took from London to Barcelona. Though he was released without charges, the singer was banned from flying on the airline.
NME says that Doherty will spend the next few weeks in detox, then receive "an opiate-suppressing implant."
