Octuplet mom once worked as a stripper

Long before she become a mother of 14, Nadya Suleman tried to make ends meet as an exotic dancer. According to a report in the National Enquirer, Suleman recently confessed to a brief stint as a stripper.

“I was 18 and at a very investigative stage of my life,” Suleman allegedly told a close friend. “I had not even kissed a boy. But I entered a dance/lingerie contest in a club near my home. I danced and paraded in lingerie. Then, when I was 19, I went to a gentleman’s club and performed as a topless dancer.”

But she soon realized dancing was only part of the act.

“I only did it one night,” Suleman was heard to say. “I quit when I found out I was expected to perform lap dances on the customers.”

‘Twilight’s’ lead vamp even smells like the undead
Fans hoping for a close encounter with “Twilight” star Robert Pattinson might have a change of heart after they hear about the hunk’s poor hygiene habits. According to on-set sources, he looks dreamy, but smells like a nightmare.

“He stinks,” one insider told E! Online. “I mean, it’s awful. He never showers, and it drives people on the set crazy.”

The odiferous account was backed up by a crewmember (“He completely reeks”), and comes as no surprise, given Pattinson’s past comments.

“I have so much residue crap in my hair from years and years and years of not washing it and not having any sense of personal hygiene whatsoever,” he said. “Even today, I go into these things where I’m supposed to be this sexy guy or whatever, and I’m literally asking (the studio rep) ‘if I get plumes of dandruff on me, can you just brush it off?’”

Ew.

Lindsay Lohan’s publicity-loving pop just can’t stop turning his daughter’s private life into his chance for a moment in the spotlight, but Michael Lohan insists it’s all about helping his little girl.

In an interview with Australia’s 2day FM, the elder Lohan promised he won’t give up gabbing about LiLo until her ever-present gal pal, Samantha Ronson, is out of the picture.

“Lindsay’s my daughter… I’m not there to be a friend; I’m there to be a parent,” he told hosts Kyle Sandilands and Jackie O. “And if Lindsay gets angry with me or she’s upset with what I say or how I do it, frankly, I don’t care if it’s going to save her life. ‘Cause at the end of the day, when times goes by, she will thank me.”

Until then, Papa Lohan’s content to keep talking.

“I’m not going to stop until Samantha’s out of her life,” he said.

Dish on the fly
Though he loved giving a voice to the blue blob named B.O.B. in “Monsters vs. Aliens,” Seth Rogen learned kids are tough critics. “Every time I drove to record his voice, I was excited about coming up with this funny stuff to say,” Rogen told USA Today. “I felt like I accomplished something, making a movie kids like that is as hilarious as anything that is out there.” Well, at least that’s how he felt until he met his audience face-to-face. “I did a meet-and-greet with kids after the premiere in Australia. I realized kids just don’t like Seth Rogen. I scare the (bleep) out of them. Maybe it’s my laugh or that I’m a big, hairy guy. They just don’t like me.” … Ready for a team of tiny celebutantes? Well, ready or not, that’s what Paris Hilton’s main man, Doug Reinhardt, wants. “Paris would make a great mom — she’s my Angel Princess,” Reinhardt baby-talked to In Touch Weekly. “I’d love to have some mini Parises one day.”
