Looks like Jennifer Aniston is going from the girl next door to a girl gone wild.
Though her rep has denied reports that Aniston will be doing a full-frontal nude scene in her next film, she will go topless in the Judd Apatow film “Wanderlust.”
In the movie, she stars alongside Paul Rudd as a happily married couple that decides to spend a stint living as hippies. According to HollywoodLife, that involves Aniston going topless, having a threesome with two women and smoking a joint or two.
Amanda Sanders, a New York-based image consultant, told the New York Daily News she thinks the decision will give Aniston a career lift.
“She’s always played those syrupy comedies and at this point she needs to do something dramatic,” she said, adding that her upcoming nudity will give her an edge.
Last year she famously appeared naked on the January issue of GQ in nothing but a tie.
Aniston, 41, is hurting after her latest movie, “The Switch,” bombed at the box office this weekend, opening at the No. 8 spot with only $8.1 million. “The Bounty Hunter,” with Gerard Butler, was also a box-office disappointment.
“Wanderlust” and “Horrible Bosses” are slated for release next year.
Lindsay Lohan is ready to get professional assistance for her finances and career.
The actress has turned over control of her finances to Lou Taylor, the savvy, no-nonsense Nashville businesswoman who guided Britney Spears back from the brink, according to the New York Post.
Spears’ manager, Larry Rudolph, is also believed to be interested in getting involved in Lohan’s music career.
“Lou has been working on fashion deals for Lindsay including the Marc Ecko ads and a deal with a Russian fashion company,” a source told the Post. “Larry Rudolph was like a father figure to Britney, and Lou is referring some business to him.”
Taylor, who runs Tri Star Sports and Entertainment, came on board with Lohan earlier this year and wired her a $10,000 bail bond after she returned from her ill-fated Cannes trip in May.
Lohan was released from rehab Tuesday, just 22 days into treatment and after serving only 13 days of her 90-day sentence for violating probation.
Two of Michael Jackson‘s kids have left homeschool for one of the most exclusive private schools in the country.
Prince, 13, and 12-year-old Paris started at The Buckley School in the San Fernando Valley on Wednesday, according to TMZ.
Family sources said Prince wanted to go to Buckley to have “a social experience.” Initially, Paris was reluctant but changed her mind in a big way.
As for 8-year-old Blanket, he’s still going to be homeschooled. Katherine Jackson feels he’s too young to venture out.
Among the alums — Matthew Perry, Alyssa Milano, Nicole Richie, Nicollette Sheridan and Laura Dern, Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian.
The judge overseeing Chris Brown‘s probation for beating ex-girlfriend Rihanna sang the praises of the R&B artist and urged him to keep chipping away at his community service requirement.
Superior Court Judge Patricia Schnegg did not raise any issues about Brown’s progress during the brief hearing.
“You’re doing very well on probation,” Schnegg told Brown.
“You’re doing a great job.” Brown, 21, did not speak during the hearing.
The judge said Brown had consistently worked to satisfy his six-month community labor sentence, but she did not say how many hours he had completed.
Schnegg also noted she had read positive reports from a domestic violence counseling program attended by Brown.
His attorney Mark Geragos said at a hearing in May that Brown had logged nearly 300 hours of community work.
The singer was sentenced last year to five years probation and six months of community labor for assaulting Rihanna in February 2009 after a pre-Grammy Awards party.
Once known for his squeaky-clean image and dancing ability, Brown has also been working to repair his public image since the beating.
