· Friends and associates of slain publicist Ronni Chasen have expressed doubt that her murder case is satisfactorily solved. "It's ridiculous, just ridiculous. It doesn't add up and I haven't talked to anyone who thinks it does," said one, rejecting the Beverly Hills police contention that Chasen was the victim of a random robbery gone horribly wrong. The police stand by their determination, reiterating the ballistics match between Harold Smith's gun -- with which he committed suicide -- and the weapon used to kill Chasen. "I think the media doesn't want this so-called murder mystery to end this way," said a cop. Always our fault! Anyway, this happened. [LAT]

· Speaking of whom, Lindsay Lohan was reportedly "devastated" by Paltrow's crack in her first episode that "Lindsay Lohan is crazy, right? [...] How many times has Lindsay Lohan been to rehab?" Coincidentally, according to her mother, Lohan was watching from the Betty Ford Clinic. File under: You can't make this crap up. [Radar]

Dear Linds:
Part of your recovery should involve learning to have a sense of humor, especially about yourself.
Oh sure, random "lowlife" brags to neighbors about $10,000 windfall then later jumps on his bike and "accidentally" shoots unarmed rich lady five times in the chest also failing to take her purse because it was "a robbery gone wrong". Later kills himself. All makes perfect sense.
