Get your lowdown on what's going on in the world of Hollywood, right here!

Lindsay Lohan has reportedly sacked her sober living coach, who she had hired after her 2013 rehab stint, after filming her self-titled reality show for OWN.

A source close to the situation told Radar Online that as soon as the cameras were packed up, the actress gave Michael Cormier the pink slip.

The insider said that it was important for the Mean Girls star to show the world while she was filming the show that she was sober and having Cormier there gave her a lot of credibility and support when she needed it.

Lohan is believed to have fired Cormier because he was insistent she stay away from party pal Gavin Doyle.

Pamela Anderson is sure her teenage sons, Brandon Thomas Lee and Dylan Jagger Lee, know about her sex tape with former husband Tommy Lee.

The busty actress made the revelation to Elle magazine, while insisting that she is not sure whether her sons have actually seen the tape, the New York Post reported.

Anderson blamed her sons’ knowledge of her sex tape to “stupid internet”, adding that she doesn’t know why everyone is so impressed with it.

Channing Tatum is in talks to make his directorial debut with a movie adaptation of Jo Nesbo’s novel The Son, according to reports.

The book will be released in Norway and in the US, and the ‘Magic Mike’ star and his producing partner Reid Carolin are hoping to make the story their next project, according to Deadline.com.

Warner Bros. movie executives are also hoping Tatum will star in the movie, which centres on a man who is sent to prison after he takes the blame for crimes committed by others.

This isn't the first novel by the Norwegian author that is set to be adapted for the big screen - Martin Scorsese is attached to develop a film based on The Snowman and Leonardo DiCaprio will star in Blood On Snow, which Nesbo wrote under the pseudonym Tom Johansson.

Russell Crowe, who lobbied hard but could not get Pope Francis to see his biblical drama Noah, reportedly settled for a quick meeting with the pontiff at the Vatican with his film crew.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, while both Paramount Studios and Universal Studios Italy said that Crowe, director Darren Aronofsky, producer Scott Franklin, met the pontiff, Vatican spokesman Father Federico Lombardi said that no meeting had been scheduled.

Vatican officials had supposedly tentatively agreed to the meeting but it had been cancelled as the Pope was worried about the media frenzy it would create and was afraid that it would become a “huge spectacle”.

Despite the conflicting reports about the encounter, Crowe recently took to Twitter to share pictures of the delegation sitting at the Pope’s weekly audience in St. Peter’s Square.
