Millennium Films has given a sneak peek at Amanda Seyfried's transformation into '70s porn star Linda Lovelace, releasing a new poster for the upcoming film.

Lindsay Lohan is facing another legal battle. Online tabloid TMZ reports that police are sending a case involving an alleged hit-and-run by the actress to prosecutors. A man claims Lohan's car struck him in March, and then took off. Lohan claims the man is fabricating his whole story. It shouldn't be too much of a worry , however: TMZ sites police sources who say the case is full of holes and Lohan will likely not be prosecuted.
Adele has set another record in the U.K. Her album, "21," has overtaken Michael Jackson's "Thriller" in the list of best-selling U.K. albums. So far, it's sold 4,274,300 copies in the U.K. - that's about 500 more than Jackson's 1982 classic. She still has a while to go before hitting the top the list, however. The feat puts her album at number five on the list, with works by Oasis, ABBA, The Beatles, and Queen still outselling her.
