A mini-Thursday update on a big day...did you hear LeBron's having a press conference tonight? Perhaps you heard that mentioned somewhere...
On-air 3-7pm today, you should be listening!
LINDSAY DENIES...
You've surely heard about LOHAN headed to the slammer for 90 days...and also about the little F-U message on her fingernails that was supposedly meant for the judge. LINDSAY LOHAN says that was NOT aimed at the judge who eventually sentenced her to 90 days behind bars.
Yesterday, she Tweeted the following to a friend . . ."Didn't we do our nails as a joke with our friend? It had nothing to do w/court. It's an airbrush design from a stencil."
A friend of Lindsay's adds, "The words have been on her nail for a few days and it was a mistake that she did not remove them before heading into court. She was nervous and worried yesterday, but she took the judge seriously."
This friend also says that if Lindsay meant to send a message to anyone, it was her dad, MICHAEL LOHAN.
The friend said,"He sees the photos. It's the only form of communication they share at this point . . . Their relationship has broken down completely in the last six months.
"Lindsay is lacking in support from friends and family, and those words show her frustration and unhappiness."
KE$HA...OH MY!
A picture showed up online yesterday featuring someone who LOOKS like KE$HA lying on her back, topless, with what might be . . . what she we call it, guy-juice?. . . on her torso.
Technically, she's not topless, but she has her top pulled all the way up to her neck. And she's holding her breasts, so you can't see her nipples.

IDOL CANCELLING SHOWS...
"American Idol" has cut EIGHT shows from this year's Idols Live! Tour, INCLUDING the Cleveland show slated for September 11!
The tour . . . which kicked off last week in Auburn Hills, Michigan . . . was supposed to make 49 stops, before concluding in Portland, Maine, on September 16th.
But now . . . after the cancellations and some rescheduling . . . the tour will be wrapping on August 31st in Indianapolis. No reason was given for the changes, but you have to think it has to do with poor ticket sales.
There's an updated tour itinerary . . . complete with a list of the shows that were canceled and rescheduled . . . http://www.americanidol.com/tour
TONIGHT ON TV:
Big Brother is STILL ON! Season 12 starts at 8pm on CBS.
Oh, and LeBron might have a little announcement, mhmm.
TOP O' THE CHARTS:

1.) "Recovery", Eminem (313,000 copies)
2.) "Thank Me Later", Drake (105,000 copies)
3.) The soundtrack to "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse" (65,000 copies)
THE GRAMMY'S MAKE A CHANGE...BECAUSE OF GAGA!
When the nominations for this past year's Grammys were announced, a minor controversy ignited when the Recording Academy announced that LADY GAGA would NOT be eligible for Best New Artist, despite her EXPLOSION in 2009.
That was because she had been nominated for a Grammy the previous year, for her song "Just Dance". There was a rule that you could not be up for Best New Artist if you were nominated in a previous year.
Well, no more. Now...thanks to that Lady Gaga situation...the Recording Academy has altered the rule.
The new rule allows artists to qualify for Best New Artist...even if they were nominated in a previous year . . . as long as they didn't WIN, and as long as they didn't have a full album out when they were first nominated.
Which is probably good. Otherwise the old men on the Grammy panel might be trying to suggest Eminem for Best New Artist...
In a statement, the Academy said that this would also clear the way for artists featured on other artists' tracks to be nominated as a Best New Artist when they put their own stuff out. (Assuming, again, that they don't win the first time.)
The Academy also said, "With this change, each artist will have at least one opportunity to enter in this important and highly visible category."
HOW ADDICTED ARE YOU?

BUT . . . 42% think it's FINE to post photos of themselves visibly intoxicated, and 79% think it's fine to post kissing photos.
58% use Facebook to keep tabs on other women who they secretly don't like. 50% are fine with being Facebook friends with strangers.

SPEAKING OF ADDICTION...
In a study at Rutgers University, researchers found that it's as hard to get over a break-up as it is to get over a drug or nicotine addiction. Love and drugs both seem to affect the same areas of the brain, and make people do equally irrational things.
There is one big difference in the addictions though: After a break-up, as time passes, your brain starts to heal. With other drug, nicotine, or alcohol addictions it's much easier to backslide.

A 16-year-old girl from Springboro, Ohio . . . whose name hasn't been released . . . had been dating a 14-year-old boy named Matt Abrams. Matt was 4-foot-11, making him much shorter than the girl, who's 5-foot-5.
Well, after a week of dating, they decided to spend some time together in a hotel. But, three days into their stay, the 16-year-old girl ran off.
Because she discovered that 14-year-old Matt was actually a 31-YEAR-OLD WOMAN named Patricia.
Patricia Dye, of Franklin, Ohio, had been POSING as the 14-year-old boy to get close to the girl. They did have some sexual contact when they were together, before the victim realized Matt was a woman.
Dye was charged with corruption of a minor and unlawful sex with a minor. She's being held in jail on $100,000 bond.
The police are investigating whether there are other victims.
