Matt Damon believes troubled actress Lindsay Lohan will bounce back from
her recent drunk-driving arrest, declaring, "She's very talented."

The Mean Girls star was arrested for driving under the influence and
possession of cocaine in the early hours of Tuesday morning. She is
currently free on $25,000 bail and is seeking "medical care," according
to her lawyer.

Damon says, "I think there a lot of people who want to help her out, and
it's a very personal thing. Most people know someone in their lives
that's struggling with a disease like that, and the reality is you can
only support them and it's got to come from them--it's her choice
ultimately.

"I mean, look, she's very young, she's very talented; it's easy to look
from the outside and say, 'Oh, you have this big opportunity.'

"It's really hard to know that when you're in the middle of it, and to
see life from any other perspective other than your own--particularly
when you're that young. She's obviously hit a chord with people, because
people are so fascinated with her, so everybody's pulling for her, that's
for sure."

Britney behaved badly at photo shoot

Britney Spears

Britney Spears sat back and watched as her Yorkshire terrier puppy pooped
on a $6,700 designer gown at a photo shoot for OK! magazine. "I wasn't in
the room but I was there to hear the upset shrieks of the stylist,"
editor-in-chief Sarah Ivens told The Associated Press in a phone
interview Wednesday.

"Her assistant dealt with it in the end, after being asked to take care
of it. They had to be asked to clear it up."

Spears also wiped grease on a designer dress, treating it like "a
napkin," took frequent trips to the bathroom — leaving the door open
— and complained that the high-end clothing put together for the July
19 fashion shoot weren't sexy, short or tight enough, the magazine said.

After about three hours, the 25-year-old singer bolted, walking away with
more than $14,000 of borrowed apparel, Ivens said.

"I've never seen anything like it," she said. "It's definitely the most
bizarre shoot I've ever been on."

Representatives for Spears had offered an exclusive interview that was
intended as career comeback for the singer, Ivens said.

"What actually transpired on the day was a shock to us and left me and
the whole crew feeling quite shocked and sad, really," she said.

OK! publicist Brian Strong said the magazine didn't publish the photos in
its latest issue because they "weren't up to standard."

A representative at Jive Records, Spears' record label, didn't
immediately return a phone call and e-mail seeking comment Wednesday.

"She needs to have a really strong team to advise her what to do, what
not to do," Ivens said. "And then, if she gets that, I'm sure she can
pull it around. It's all there. She's got talent. She just needs to get
her priorities straight, I think."
