Singer/actress Lindsay Lohan is being encouraged by the New York State Independence Party (NYSIP) to run for local government in 2009.
The NYSIP's FRANK MORANO believes Lohan could bid for New York City Public Advocate - a position next in line to the mayor, which links the electorate and city government.
Morano writes, "As Albany is currently a cesspool of corruption, badly in need of reform, you may also want to consider a bid for the state legislature.
"Many celebrities have made the transition from Hollywood to politics, ranging from ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER and JESSE VENTURA to SONNY BONO and RONALD REAGAN. Few if any though, had the enormous potential that you possess."

CHICAGO -
Michael Jordan and his wife, Juanita, filed for divorce Friday after 17 years of marriage. "Michael and Juanita Jordan mutually and amicably decided to end their 17 year marriage," the couple said in a statement issued through their lawyers. "A judgment for dissolution of their marriage was entered today. There will be no further statements."
Michael Jordan and his wife, Juanita, filed for divorce Friday after 17 years of marriage. "Michael and Juanita Jordan mutually and amicably decided to end their 17 year marriage," the couple said in a statement issued through their lawyers. "A judgment for dissolution of their marriage was entered today. There will be no further statements."
Juanita Jordan previously filed for divorce in January 2002, but withdrew her petition a month later when the couple announced they were attempting a reconciliation.
During her last divorce petition, Jordan said attempts to reconcile their marriage had failed and future ones "would be impractical and not in the best interests of the family."
The couple met at a Chicago restaurant during his second season with the Bulls and were married Sept. 2, 1989, in Las Vegas. They have three children: Jeffrey, Marcus and Jasmine.
The 43-year-old Jordan, a part-owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, led the Bulls to six NBA titles and was a five-time league MVP. He lives in Highland Park, Ill.

Ew.
from ONTD:
Is love in the air for Jennifer Aniston and billionaire playboy Steve Bing? In Touch is reporting that Steve, 41, approached Jen, 37, and gave her his phone number while she was having dinner with friends at West Hollywood’s Madeo restaurant. An insider revealed, “They’ve known each other socially. He saw an opportunity and made a move.”
Jen hasn’t taken Steve up on the offer just yet - and friends say he’s not the only guy who’s been hitting on the newly single star. Ever since she broke up with Vince Vaughn, “Men are coming out of the woodwork,” says a pal. One of those men is cyclist Lance Armstrong, 35, but a friend says Jen turned him down when he asked her on a date because of her friendship with his ex-fiancé, Sheryl Crow.

Widow of soul legend locked out as battle opens over will
KEVIN SCHOFIELD
THE first blow in what promises to be a long and protracted fight over James Brown's estate was struck yesterday when his widow was locked out of the home she and the soul legend had shared for the past ten years amid claims the pair had never been legally married.
Just hours after the singer's death, Tomi Rae Hynie returned to the house in Beech Island, South Carolina, to find that its wrought-iron gates had been padlocked shut.
"They've been robbing from him all of his life and they'll do it in death," she said.
Although she admitted she did not own the deeds to the home, she insisted she and the couple's five-year-old son, James Jr, had a legal right to continue living there.
"This is my home," Ms Hynie said outside the gates of the house. "I don't have any money. I don't have anywhere to go."
Brown and Ms Hynie were married in 2001. But the singer's lawyer, Buddy Dallas, said Ms Hynie was already married to another man, thereby making her marriage to Brown null and void.
Mr Dallas said Ms Hynie later annulled the previous marriage, but never remarried Brown, as she was required to do to make their union legal.
"It's not intended, and I hope not interpreted, to be an act of unkindness or an act of a lack of sympathy," Mr Dallas said.
"Ms Hynie has a home a few blocks away from Mr Brown's home where she resides periodically when she is not with Mr Brown. She is not without housing or home."
Brown died on Christmas Day of heart failure after being admitted to hospital with pneumonia. He was 73.
Known as the "Godfather of Soul", Brown made and lost millions of dollars during a long and often controversial music career which spanned more than half a century.
But with at least three ex-wives and six children, a huge legal battle is expected over who will get to share in the money he has left behind.
Born in May 1933 into extreme poverty, Brown earned money dancing for soldiers, picking cotton and shining shoes.
At end of the 1960s, by which time he was a household name around the world thanks to his music career, Brown had also proved himself to be a talented entrepreneur and owned his own publishing company, three radio stations and a Learjet.
However, the radio stations and the jet had to be sold during the 1970s after United States Internal Revenue Service demanded $4.5 million (£2.3 million) in unpaid taxes.
In 1999, Brown struck a deal which saw him receive more than $25 million (£13 million) in bonds against advance publishing royalties.
To provide further proof of his ability to spend money almost as quickly as he earned it, however, Brown sought to re- finance the bonds with a new loan this year.
Despite their tempestuous relationship - Brown was fined £570 on a domestic violence charge in 2004 - Ms Hynie yesterday insisted they were still a couple at the time of his death.
"The last thing he said to me was, 'I love you baby and I'll see you soon'," she said.
Mr Dallas said no-one could be allowed into Brown's home until a court certifies that any will left by the singer is genuine.
He said legal formalities now needed to be followed, adding that the singer's estate was left in trust for his children.
However, he declined to elaborate on Brown's final instructions.
Mr Dallas said the decision to lock Ms Hynie out of the couple's home was "not a reflection on her as an individual".
"I have not even been in the house, nor will I until appropriate protocol is followed," he said.

The Hardest Workin Wifebeater Dies!
James Brown is dead! Now that punk song can be played for real real. Honestly, I'm surprised he lived as long as he did.

off of TMZ.com:
James Brown, a musical giant and one of the most breathakingly dynamic performers in all of entertainment, died early Christmas morning in Atlanta at the age of 73.
Brown, the self-described "Hardest Working Man in Show Business," was hospitalized with pneumonia at Emory Crawford Long Hospital on Sunday and died around 1:45 AM, according to his agent, Frank Copsidas. A longtime friend, Charles Bobbit, was at his side. Copsidas told the Associated Press, "We really don't know at this point what he died of."
With his unmistakable pompadour, stunningly agile dance moves, raspy vocal style, and almost superhuman on-stage energy, Brown, as much as anyone in the history of live performance, gave audiences their money's worth and much more. His gifts as a songwriter and singer, which helped earn him the title of "The Godfather of Soul," were hugely influential on the genres of funk, disco, and rap as well. His instantly recognizable hits included "I Got You (I Feel Good)," "Papa's Got A Brand New Bag," and "Say It Loud -- I'm Black and I'm Proud."
Brown's personal life, particularly over the last two decades, was beset with allegations of drug and alcohol abuse and domestic trouble. He spent 15 months in a South Carolina prison and 10 months in a work release program after leading police on a half-hour, PCP-fueled chase which ended with the tires of his truck being shot out. Brown recently married his fourth wife, backup singer Tomi Raye Hynie, with whom he had a young son. Brown had five children with his previous wives.
