'Glee' Cast Apologizes to Lindsay Lohan for Making Fun of Her

Lindsay Lohan ran into the cast of 'Glee' on Sunday, and they were nice enough to apologize to her for making fun of the actress in an episode that aired last year.

TMZ is reporting Lohan was out to dinner in West Hollywood, and the cast (minus Lea Michele and Jane Lynch) walked up to Lohan and apologized to her for the jokes made where they referenced Lohan's frequent trips to rehab.

The cast said that they did not mean to hurt her feelings, and Lohan reportedly accepted their apology before everyone parted ways.

In the 'Glee' episode, Gwyneth Paltrow guest starred as Spanish teacher Holly Holiday and referenced the actress in a lesson, asking, "Lindsay Lohan is totally crazy, right?"

Her character then asked her students in Spanish, "How many times has Lindsay Lohan been to rehab?"

Apparently Lohan saw the show and wasn't too happy. Her mom, Dina Lohan, revealed, "Lindsay was watching it while in Betty Ford, then she called me and was upset and said, 'Why did she have to do that?' Lindsay is so upset with Gwyneth."

Dina went on to say, "We are the first to make fun of ourselves in our family. And Lindsay has even done 'SNL' a few times, but Gwyneth went overboard and it was unnecessary. Lindsay thought she was a friend and it was disappointing. It was really hard for her to watch ... it was hurtful, not funny."

Paltrow has so far refused to answer any questions about the Lohans or the jokes made in the episode of the TV show.

Rachael Ray Apologizes for Negative 'Dancing With the Stars' Comments

Yum-O? More like, Uh-oh! Rachael Ray is eating crow after repeatedly saying she'd never appear on ABC's 'Dancing With the Stars' because she wouldn't be caught dead in one of the hit show's typically revealing costumes.

As it turns out, Randall Christensen, the Emmy-winning wardrobe designer for 'DWTS' since 2006, had to write to the perky daytime host and practically demand that she make amends.

Ray, to her credit, reads Christensen's message (in which he asks, "Do you have any idea how hard it is to sit and hear you talk about my work that way?") aloud in the following clip. And she immediately tries smoothing over his perception that she has been bashing his designs.

"I was never trying to offend you," Ray says. "Or any of the great people that work with you, to produce such beautiful costumes. They're amazing, and they do, in fact, make everyone on the show look fabulous." She adds that her aversion to wearing 'DWTS'-style fashions really stems from insecurities she has with her own body image. Watch Rachael Ray apologize after the jump.

Tracy Morgan Calls Sarah Palin 'Good Masturbation Material,' Network Apologizes

Cable television network TNT issued an apology late Thursday for a comment made by "30 Rock" star Tracy Morgan about former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin during a live broadcast.

Morgan made a crude remark about the key Republican’s looks during an appearance Thursday on “Inside the NBA."

During a pre-game chat ahead of the Miami Heat-New York Knicks clash, co-host Charles Barkley asked the actor, “Sarah Palin’s good looking, isn’t she?”

Morgan replied, "Let me tell you something about Sarah Palin, she's good masturbation material. The glasses and all of that... She is great masturbation material."

TNT issued the apology within minutes amid outraged phone calls and emails about Morgan's comments, USA Today reported.

"It's unfortunate Morgan showed a lack of judgment on our air with his inappropriate comments," said Turner spokesman Jeff Pomeroy in a statement.

Kyle Richards Apologizes for 'Housewives' Brawl with Sister Kim

Bravo's recent season finale episode of 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' wrapped up with a shocking scene: Kyle Richards and her intoxicated sister Kim (both former child actors, and aunts to Paris Hilton) tore into each other verbally, and just about came to blows inside their limo.

For days, fans of the typically frothy show have been buzzing about the dark episode. Did Kyle (pictured here, wearing pink) really call her sis "insane," "sick," a "liar" and "demented"? Did co-star Adrienne Maloof barely prevent a physical assault?

Now, Kyle is sorry for the blow-up with Kim, who has since entered rehab. On her Bravo blog, Kyle writes candidly about that night, and her bond with her sister.

"The events that transpired that evening were quite unfortunate and should never have occurred on, or off, camera," Kyle says. "We both said and did things that we regret. My sister and I love each other very much....You may be thinking, 'You have a funny way of showing it.' And you're not wrong. However, our arguments were never about what was happening at that moment. My mom used to say, 'They're crying about the apples, but it's really the oranges,' and that's exactly what was happening here."

"After this horrible argument between Kim and I, we didn't speak for a long time. My heart was broken and I suffered an incredible amount of anxiety and panic attacks. Next to losing my mother, this was the most difficult time of my life."



In her blog post, Kyle never indicates whether she's reconciled yet with Kim in person (although she seems to speak for both when she says, "We want to move forward and put this behind us.")

She continues, "It feels so strange to even refer to it as an 'episode.' This is my life. This is Kim's life. I wish we were just characters on television, but this is all too real. That night never should have happened. It was incredibly difficult to go through in the first place and it's even more difficult to watch and relive it."

The Richards sisters will likely relive, or at least address, the controversy on the series' reunion special, hosted by Andy Cohen, airing on Bravo this Thurs., Jan. 27 (9 p.m. ET).
