Kanye West Brings Kim K and Lindsay Together!
Lindsay Lohan and Kim Kardashian were both in the SAME ROOM last night ... along with 19,000 other people ... 'cause they were both at the Barclays Center for the Kanye West concert in Brooklyn.
In fact, all sorts of big stars showed up to Kanye's big show in Brooklyn -- Carmelo Anthony's wife La La Anthony, fashion powerhouse Anna Wintour, LiLo, Kim (her BFF Jonathan Cheban) and, of course, Kris Jenner.
British model Cara Delevingne was also at the show.
One person was noticeably missing -- Kendall Jenner. Apparently, she's got her own things going on these days.
Lindsay Lohan $50,000 to Host Halloween Party Casino Wants Its $$$ Back
Lindsay Lohan was paid north of $50,000 to host a Halloween party at a casino last night, sources tell TMZ -- but she was so late ... the casino wants a chunk of its money back.
Sources familiar with the situation tell us, Lindsay was paid to show up to Foxwoods casino in Connecticut at 10pm, but she didn't arrive until 11:43pm.
When she finally did show up, we're told she blew off the red carpet -- where she was supposed to pose for photos and talk to fans -- and walked straight into the party.
We're told Foxwoods is now trying to renegotiate Lindsay's contract because the casino feels she screwed them over.
Lindsay didn't completely drop the ball. We're told she and co-host Floyd Mayweather Jr. judged the Halloween costume contest together and actually did a decent job. (FYI, Lindsay was dressed as Carrie and Floyd was dressed as Freddy Krueger.)
For what it's worth, we're told Floyd (who was paid about the same as Lindsay) was late too -- but he made up for it by spending time with fans, signing autographs and taking photos.
Lindsay, not so much.

Lindsay Lohan Don't Believe Your Eyes ... I Was NOT Wining
Lindsay Lohan wasn't reaching for a wine bottle in the photo that surfaced Wednesday morning ... it's an optical illusion ... that's Lindsay's story, anyway.
Sources close to Lindsay tell us, Lindsay was actually reaching for her purse and cell phone on the same counter top, and the photo angle (above) was set up to make it look like she was grabbing the wine bottle instead.
Lindsay is adamant she has NOT fallen off the wagon -- in fact, she's telling friends she's been faithfully attending multiple AA meetings per week, and has continued therapy since leaving rehab.
The photo was taken at a friend's house ... who clearly had wine while Lindsay was visiting. Sounds like a bad idea, but we're told Lindsay has overcome her desire to drink, and has no problem hanging with boozers.
In fact, as we reported, LiLo thinks she's doing so well ... she's ditched her sober coach, insisting she can handle sobriety on her own.
Where have we heard that before?

Lindsay Lohan SUED Over PCH Car Crash
Lindsay Lohan has more legal woes -- TMZ has learned she's just been sued over the accident where her Porsche rammed into an semi-truck.
You'll recall, Lindsay was late for a Malibu shoot for the movie "Liz and Dick" when she roared up Pacific Coast Highway in a black Porsche 911S at speeds that exceeded 60 MPH.
As we first reported, Lindsay lied to cops and said she was a passenger in the car and tried to frame the person who was driving with her. We also reported cops discovered pills in her purse and a water bottle that reeked of booze. Witnesses also said there were pills scattered in the trunk.
The truck driver, James Johnson, claims he was injured and suffered great physical, mental and nervous pain.
He's suing for unspecified damages.

Dina Lohan The Paparazzi Caused Her To Drive Drunk
Dina Lohan drove totally wasted and it's all because the paparazzi drove her to the bottle and then the steering wheel ... this according to her bizarre lawyer.
Dina and her lawyer, Mark Heller, appeared for a routine hearing in her drunk driving case, and then Heller offered up the indefensible defense.
Here's the argument ... Dina's lifestyle presents lots of challenges and stress, brought on by the barrage of photogs that follow her. Those stresses caused Dina to down enough alcohol to register a .20 blood alcohol level as she tooled down the road. Short story -- it's our fault, not hers.
You may remember Heller. He was literally run out of L.A. after getting fired in the Lindsay Lohan shoplifting case.
Heller hopes that the judge will take his argument under consideration in Dina's DWI case.
Hope springs eternal.

Lindsay Lohan Reaching for Trouble
Lindsay Lohan may have been reaching in the wrong direction last night because it looks like her hand was going straight for a wine bottle.
The pic was taken at a Hollywood Hills home where Lindsay was hanging out before attempting to catch a red eye back to NY. Lindsay got to the airport too late and missed her flight.
There are no photos of Lindsay actually clutching the bottle or drinking but the evidence is ominous.
TMZ has learned Lindsay sent her sober coach packing. The coach had stayed with LL in NY after she left rehab, but has now returned to Cali full-time. We're told LL told him she can do it on her own now.

Lindsay Lohan Reunites With Ex-Assistant Who Ratted Her Out to Cops
Lindsay Lohan appears to have made-up with an old friend ... only problem, it's another crony with whom she has a history of getting into trouble.
LiLo was spotted leaving Lure restaurant in NYC last night with Gavin Doyle -- the same guy who ratted her out to cops last year ... when he told them Lohan was the driver in their crash on PCH -- a fact Lindsay tried to conceal.
Lindsay also famously booted Gavin from her car last year ... after leaving an NYC jail for allegedly punching a "gypsy." He was also her employee during most of Lohan's darkest drug fueled days.
It's unclear when the two made up -- but we thought for sure he would have been one of the 80 "toxic friends" LiLo cut from her life after rehab.
Then again ... Gavin wasn't the one making poor decisions. Maybe he should make a toxic list.

Lindsay & Dina Lohan All Coked Up
Lindsay Lohan and her mom Dina grabbed their running shoes ... their track suits ... and a couple of bottles of Coca-cola as they hit the streets of New York today.
Yeah, Coke isn't the drink of choice when you're working out, but it beats vodka.
Lilo and DiLo rented bikes and cruised the West Side Highway in NYC ... then ditched the bikes and worked up a sweat during a quick run -- sodas in hand -- before hopping into a waiting SUV.
Feel the burn.

Lindsay Lohan Dangerous Night In NYC with Addict Pal
Lindsay Lohan was in the wrong place, at the wrong time, with the wrong dude last night in NYC -- at least based on her history with her hotel owner pal.
In a photo that spells nothing but trouble for Lindsay ... she was snapped outside The Dream Hotel at 1 AM with Vikram Chatwal ... who owns the hotel, but more importantly has an even darker past with drugs than Lindsay.
As TMZ reported, Linds thinks she and Chatwal -- himself a rehab grad -- can help each other stay clean … which is kinda like a diabetic having Paula Deen for a best friend.
Not to mention ... LiLo was arrested last year at The Dream for a hit and run, after grazing a pedestrian outside the hotel, and then fleeing the scene.
So, let's review -- out late night, hanging with a recovering addict, at a spot where she's already been arrested once.
Three strikes?

Oprah Winfrey Cuts LiLo's Parents ... Makes Big Mistake

Lindsay Lohan's Parents Persona Non Grata on OWN Show
Lindsay Lohan's OWN reality show producers want nothing to do with her parents, and TMZ has learned ... an executive decision was made to ban them from the show.
Michael and Dina Lohan will NOT film a single scene for the upcoming series. No one will even refer to DiLo's DWI arrest earlier this month -- according to production sources.
We're told producers were struggling a few weeks back with the show's direction ... and after intense debate decided to not include the "Lohan family circus."
We're told cameras did capture Michael and Lindsay together on 3 days -- but it's unclear whether that footage will make the final cut ... and there won't be any further shooting with daddy dearest.
Our sources say the show will stick to its original focus -- Lindsay's "comeback and recovery" ... which is what she agreed to from the get go.
Thank you O ... for keeping Michael and Dina off our TVs.

Lindsay Lohan Oprah Scared the Crap Out of Her
Lindsay Lohan will get to keep her huge paycheck from Oprah Winfrey ... but only after an intense showdown between O and LiLo ... TMZ has learned.
We've confirmed ... Lindsay was a disaster at the beginning of the project -- at times just being a no-show -- which doesn't work in Oprah's world. We're told Oprah went to Dina's house on Long Island for a showdown with Lindsay. She told Lindsay either clean up her act or the project is over and Lindsay would not get her $2 million paycheck.
Our sources say Lindsay had a bunch of excuses ... she was spending time trying to find an apartment in NYC, she had other projects she was trying to finish, there were "miscommunications" between her people and the folks at OWN, yada yada.
Oprah made the ultimatum clear and Lindsay got the message.
We're told Lindsay is now cooperating and things have been running okay for nearly a month, but Oprah is still watching Lindsay like a hawk.
Be careful Lindsay. It's gonna be hard to score 2 mil with "Canyons 2."

Michael Lohan It's My Fault Lindsay's Screwed Up ... And Dina's Too
Lindsay Lohan has every right to blame her addiction issues on her mother AND her father -- so says Michael Lohan who's now fully admitting their nasty breakup put Lindsay on a path to failure.
We spoke to Michael just hours after Dina Lohan pled not guilty to DWI -- telling us, "I think because of [my and Dina's] divorce and what happened, Lindsay was put in a horrible position."
The crazy part ... it sounds like Michael thinks there's still a chance for a big Lohan family reunion -- if Dina sorts out her legal problems, and he had choice words for her on that front.

Dina Lohan just showed up in court in New York a few minutes ago and pleaded not guilty to drunk driving charges ... but she wasn't just allowed to go ... because the judge suspended her license.
Dina showed up with her attorney, Mark Heller -- the same guy Lindsay used -- who argued that Dina didn't have a criminal record ... and the judge released her without bail. Then they faced reporters outside the courthouse.
As we reported ... Dina was stopped for speeding on a Long Island highway earlier this month and cops say she blew a .20 on a breathalyzer. She was ticketed for DWI and speeding.
No license? No problem. Dina was driven away ... in a silver Rolls-Royce.
She'll be back in court Oct. 23.

Dina Lohan We're Taking Your House
Dina Lohan should think about putting a lawyer on retainer, because she has a new legal problem -- a bank has filed a lawsuit to foreclose on her Long Island house.
Dina has had problems falling behind on her mortgage payments for years now, but apparently it has reached critical mass.
JP Morgan Chase Bank filed the foreclosure action, according to the Long Island Press. The process is complicated. Dina can pull this one out of the fire by settling with the bank.
Dina has salvaged her home in the past. TMZ broke the story ... Lindsay bailed her out last year by fronting her mom 40k for the crib.
And this is interesting ... Dina was served with foreclosure docs 2 weeks before she was popped for DUI.

We're told the entire Lohan clan was in great spirits -- something they're familiar with -- and no one uttered a peep about the arrest.
As we reported, Dina was popped on Long Island Thursday after allegedly driving with a blood alcohol level of .20 (more than twice the legal limit). Happy Birthday!
