Lohan began learning the dance form before checking into the Cirque Lodge Treatment Center in Utah in July this year.
The 21-year-old star’s stint in rehab, however, did not come in the way of her dance classes, for her Los Angeles-based dance teacher, Gloria Otero regularly flew in to teach her.
Otero revealed that he visited the rehab facility every weekend to teach ‘the Mean Girls’ star how to tango and has admitted that she has become a great dancer.
"I have been going to Utah for the past three weeks. We practice on Fridays and Saturdays. It's been really good working with her... She has become a great dancer," Contactmusic quoted Otero, as telling In Touch Weekly magazine.
Kylie Minogue will be seen in a figure-hugging black latex catsuit in her next video
Pop princess Kylie Minogue has turned into a drag queen for her latest video after trawling London's ultra camp scene for inspiration .
She has been on a series of nights out to London clubs and befriended a gang of outrageous cross-dressers .
In her most shocking shoot ever, Kylie glams it up in a latex black catsuit, poisonous red lips, and big blonde curly hair. An insider at the shoot at Shepperton Studios in London last Friday said: "It's just visually amazing. It's like nothing you've ever seen Kylie do before .
Kylie vamps it up in a black latex catsuit that's so tight and figure-hugging , you can clearly see the shape of her bum. And it looks great. Then she writhes on the floor provocatively and cavorts on a grand piano."
The new look comes after her stylist William Baker said it would be a good idea to make her new video "more authentic" . So, ever the professional, Kylie hit the drag clubs with gusto and instantly hit it off with queens Tasty Tim and Princess Julia.
They've been giving Kylie advice on what to wear, how to strut down the stage and how to pout. Kylie also took advice from her pal Boy George, who designed the famous B-Rude baggy pant outfit for her Showgirls tour and is a regular on the drag circuit. Kylie's album X will be out on November 26.
Eva Longoria has denied that she has ever made a sex tape with her new husband Tony Parker, and has insisted that they are "too square" to film themselves in bed together.
The Desperate Housewives actress was rumoured to have appeared in a home-made movie with her basketball player partner.
But she has claimed that the only sex tape she has ever starred in is a spoof that she shot with comedian Perry Hilton for a website.
Longoria said: "Everybody was calling me (when the story broke) going, 'Oh my God...'.
"We never made a tape... We're very square, boring people."
She said of the spoof film: "It's like the non-sex video because we don't have sex... It's so funny... Tony thought it was so freakin' hilarious... But it's a skit."
The February 2006 photo of Britney Spears steering her SUV out of a Starbucks parking lot in Malibu, Calif., with her infant son, Sean Preston, slumped on her lap was the first sign for many of us that the young mom might not be ready for parenthood. By the time a Los Angeles judge temporarily stripped the pop singer of custody of Sean, now 2, and Jayden James, 1, on Monday, Spears had provided dozens more images that suggest she is unable to care for two young children. From her impromptu head-shaving to her trips to rehab to her recent listless shuffle around the MTV Video Music Awards stage, Spears, 26, seems incapable of taking care of herself. Today she and her ex-husband, Kevin Federline, will face a judge to determine the next step in this increasingly ugly custody battle.

The judge, L.A. Superior Court Commissioner Scott Gordon, didn't make public his reasons for separating Spears from her sons Monday, but family law experts say such a dramatic move is rare. "A change of custody is very difficult," says Muriel Savikas, a divorce mediator and child psychologist in Manhattan Beach, Calif. "The courts don't normally do that without some real concerns about safety."
The judge had ordered Spears to submit to twice-weekly drug and alcohol testing, undergo co-counseling with Federline and receive parent coaching. Spears' lawyer, Sorrell Trope, told People magazine the judge revoked custody after Spears failed to take a random drug test and provide a valid California driver's license. "That might do it, but probably not," says Orange County divorce attorney Jeffrey Lalloway. "California policy is to have frequent and continuing contact with both parents." (Trope was unavailable for comment). The ruling came after Spears' former bodyguard told the court and the Today show that he had seen her doing drugs, and it also followed Spears being charged with a hit-and-run and driving without a valid license for allegedly crashing into a parked car in August.
Celebrities enjoy — and sometimes suffer — their own unique version of justice. The press and public intensely scrutinize their cases and the best attorneys money can buy litigate them. Judges, meanwhile, may see an opportunity to make an example of a celebrity in trouble, as L.A. Superior Court Judge Michael T. Sauer apparently did in ensuring that Paris Hilton serve an atypical 23-day jail sentence for driving with a suspended a license. So is Spears and Federline's judge looking to make a statement about neglectful parenting? Odds are he's just being exceedingly cautious, says Joanna Grossman, a law professor at Hofstra University.
The worst case scenario for this judge is that Federline says his children are being harmed while in Spears' custody, the judge ignores the allegations and something happens to the kids, Grossman says. "Then everyone's going look to the judge and say why didn't you do something? We all knew she was on this downward spiral. We saw the pictures, we saw her performance on the VMAs, we all knew she was a terrible mother."
Spears is certainly not the first celebrity to be captured in a sub-par performance as a parent. Alec Baldwin recently called his 11-year-old daughter a "thoughtless little pig" in a voice mail; David Hasselhoff's 17-year-old daughter videotaped him lounging drunk on the floor of his Las Vegas hotel room, rambling and trying to eat a hamburger; and Michael Jackson dangled his child out a window to show off to fans. Baldwin's custody case is still pending but the other two men have retained custody of their children.
Spears, ultimately, may do the same. The fact that the judge took away custody as of 12 noon today, and scheduled a hearing for 1:30pm the same day suggests he isn't trying to separate this family permanently. "This is just a wakeup call for Britney," says Grossman, "to send a message to her that this is real, that you could really lose your kids because of the way you're behaving." Whether the wake-up call will be effective isn't certain. Spears' first stop after turning over her sons two days early on Monday was to a Bel-Air tanning salon.
LONDON: Sleuths protecting Prince Harry have asked him to book a hotel room if he fancies a bit of royal rumpty with girlfriend Chelsy Davy.
The reason: The protection officers say the Zimbabwean blonde's student dig in the rundown Hyde Park area near the University of Leeds is "unsafe" for the 23-year-old Prince to stay in overnight.
"There's no way Harry will ever be properly protected there. Officers will have no control over the comings and goings. He's been told a hotel is the best option," the 'News of the World' reported here today, quoting a source as saying.
Davy, who relocated to Britain to study law at Leeds, has recently moved into the student accommodation instead of opting to splash out on a luxury flat. She is sharing the dig, costing 55 pounds every week, with three of her mates.
Prince Harry has already got a taste of student life when he visited his girlfriend recently - by tucking into her homemade Spaghetti Bolognese.
In fact, the 21-year-old's decision to opt for a student accommodation followed reports that the girlfriend of Harry's brother Prince William was having a flutter over their love affair.
According to an earlier report published in the British tabloid, Kate Middleton fears that if she becomes a member of the Royal Family in future, she would not be able to match up to the expectations of snotty courtiers.
"Kate is just from a very normal middle-class family who have done exceptionally well for themselves. They don't live on a huge estate or have titles before their names," an unnamed friend was quoted as saying.
"It's one thing having an on-off relationship with Wills, it's quite another thing becoming Queen," another friend said.
Monday, October 1, 2007: (Berlin):

At the press conference organized on Friday, she laughed and denied reports that she was arrested at immigration in India.
"You know I'm sometimes quite amused by the press because I was not arrested, and I went on the net and people were calling me and they were asking me if I was okay, and I was like, what's happened, I've just come to Berlin, I've just landed here, and they were like, we heard you got arrested.
"No, I was questioned at the airport because of that entire thing that happened with Richard, and the High Court had already quashed the case," said Shilpa Shetty, Actress.

A regional court issued arrest warrants against Gere and barred Shetty from leaving the country. The order was soon overturned by the Supreme Court.
"I just met him as a matter of fact, very recently at the Toronto Film Festival, and he was there to receive the One By One Difference Award, and it was my great privilege to give it to him, and we'd spoken, we just laughed about it, it's all okay now, he's a very good man," she said.
