Is It Over?]]> Though they only confirmed their relationship a short time ago, it looks like Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson may already be heading for a break-up! One of our inside New York sources, Guest of a Guest spotted the actress/deejay duo at the Waverly Inn last night, a Gotham hotspot frequented by all of the Big Apple's most in-the-know glitterati. All seemed well enough as they dashed out of a sleek black SUV and past the usual swarm of paparazzi into the restaurant. But then things got ugly! Our source tells us:

We really did not pay much attention to them once we were seated, except at the end of their meal when Lindsay stood up and stepped/stumbled on [my friend's] foot. Without looking back or apologizing she headed straight out the door. We guess her exit was spontaneous as Samantha was behind her sputtering: 'Are you leaving?' 'Lindsay are you leaving?' 'I guess she’s leaving.' 'She just left!'

And that's not good! Our body language analyst Nolan Ryan tells us: "Lindsay, by stepping on a guest's foot, shows us and Samantha that she's not afraid to step on people's toes. If your foot or toes are in the way of her foot or her toes then she will step on your toes or foot with her toes and foot. It doesn't look good for them." Another insider tells us that Lindsay was "wearing clothing" and "seemed to be breathing in and out."

Fans of the lesbian couple will most likely be holding some sort of candlelight vigil tonight outside the Beatrice Inn, another New Amsterdam sizzling nightspot. We have no word from either of the young ladies' reps, as we have no idea how to reach them. Stay tuned for more exclusive coverage, only on Gawker!

Academy Award winner Philip Seymour Hoffman was spotted at famed Italian restaurant, Saint Ambroeus, enjoying a hardy spaghetti lunch. Hoffman was enjoying the peace and tranquility of his lunch until a few photographers showed up and snapped away. Hoffman attempted to create a fort around his table using menus and a book to block from being spied on. However, a strong gust of wind knocked over the fort right as the Charlie Wilson's War star took a bite of his meal.

<![CDATA[You Know It's A Slow News Day When Louis C.K. Gets His Picture Taken]]>

Comedian's comedian and actor Louis C.K. was spotted by a paparazzi photographer while out in New York City. C.K. asked for the real reason why the photographer was taking a picture of him. The photographer thought for a minute and debated between saying something polite ("Hey, I loved you in that one show!") or being honest. The photographer ended up going the honest route and told C.K. that he had heard a scoop that Lance Armstrong and Kate Hudson were in the adjacent area and that he just wanted to make sure his camera's focus was still working. C.K. nodded and said, "Well, just don't let Dane Cook steal this bit from me and you, okay?"

Veteran character Bruce McGill or, as he's more commonly referred to, "That One Guy From That One Movie", had his picture taken by the paparazzi yesterday while heading into LAX. McGill apologized to the young photographer about not being that interesting and not that much of a rainmaker.

<![CDATA[Scarlett Johansson: The Struggling Actress Version]]>
Sure, it was cute enough to click around Us Weekly's little online game showing what a handful of actresses would look like deprived of their "beauty trademarks," like Angelina Jolie without her lips, or Kirsten Dunst minus that adorably weird mouthful of razor-sharp baby teeth. But it's just wrong what their Photoshopping sadists did to the most spectacular cleavage of a still-maturing Hollywood generation. Even putting that image in people's minds for as along as it takes to move on to the next photo is a reckless endangerment of Scarlett Johansson's acting career. Nice work, Us sickies.
