Lindsay Lohan still wants Ronson



April 10 -- The "Mean Girls" actress - who split from her DJ girlfriend last Friday (03.04.09) - had previously said life without Samantha was like living in "hell", but now insists her romance is not dead and buried.

Asked how she was coping without Samantha, Lindsay replied: "You guys make it seem like it's so over, but it's not. People take breaks. It's OK. It's normal, they focus on themselves."

Samantha's family reportedly hired five security guards to keep Lindsay out of Los Angeles' Bar Marmont, where Samantha was playing, on Friday.

The DJ then changed the locks on the Hollywood Hills home she shared with Lindsay and was even said to be seeking a restraining order against her, although she has denied the claims. 

Lindsay has since claimed she is being shunned by friends of Samantha - including Nicole Richie - calling those close to the DJ "a bunch of disrespectful, unappreciative, jealous people with bad f***ing energy".

The 22-year-old actress is struggling to cope with the end of the relationship and has reportedly taken to asking paparazzi where Samantha is so she can go and see her.

A source said: "Lindsay was out on Tuesday (07.04.09) at a tattoo parlour. She was calling the paps to see who Samantha was with at the Chateau Marmont."

Meanwhile, Lindsay's grandmother Marilyn has spoken of her concern for her granddaughter.

Speaking from New York, she said: "All the family would like to reach out to her. We're all here for her and we'd love to see her. Me, as a grandmother, I'd like to try and help her out, but she's not here, she's in Los Angeles. I think she needs her family in her life, but they're not. They should be. I haven't seen her in over a year.

"I think what happened is she's had too much too fast. She was on her own too early."

Taylor Swift not a party girl



April 10 -- Taylor Swift shuns celebrity parties for quiet nights in with friends. The 19-year-old singer - who is close pals with singers Miley Cyrus and Carrie Underwood - is determined not to go off the rails like other young stars and is putting her career before merriment.

She said: "I like hanging out with my friends. I don't really go out much, I have friends who are famous too but we don't go and crash all the hotspots. "I'm a bit too young for all of that. I'm a quiet girl and a good girl."

Taylor's clean-cut image has clearly impressed her young fans - she was recently named the top teenage role model in an online poll of adolescents.

The "Love Story" singer wants to keep her private life out of the spotlight and has previously refused to discuss intimate details about her relationships.

Taylor - who used to date Jonas Brothers singer Joe Jonas - said: "It's fine to talk about love publicly, but I think when you talk about virginity and sex publicly, people just automatically picture you naked. And as much as I can prevent people picturing me naked, I'm going to!"
