Last month, 23-year-old Sydney Leathers’ only plan was to start a new semester at college. Needless to say, her to-do list didn't include flirting with Howard Stern or sparring with Sean Hannity on national TV. And it most definitely didn’t include entertaining porn offers or doing racy photo shoots.

But so goes the life of someone embroiled in the biggest sexting scandal we've ever seen. After taking evidence of her steamy communications with married New York City mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner to TheDirty.com, she has become a household name.

Watch my EXCLUSIVE sit-down interview with Sydney, as we discuss how the tryst began, why she chose to go public, how she feels about possibly ruing his career and marriage, and what she would say to Weiner's humiliated wife Huma Abedin if they were face-to-face.

Sydney also shares her incredibly candid advice to suspicious wives, as well as young women entertaining the idea of having an affair with a married man. She revealed so many juicy tidbits, it was difficult to edit this broadcast down, I’ll tell you! Take a look, and DEFINITELY let me know what you thought in the comments!

Is Sydney anything like you thought she'd be? What do you think of her advice to Huma?

Lindsay Lohan's Interview with Oprah: 8 Mind-Blowing Moments

Four days out of her sixth rehab stay, The Canyons star Lindsay Lohan stopped by to chat with Oprah Winfrey for her show Next Chapter. Where else would you go, right? Lindsay looked better than she has in a long time. Her skin was glowing. She's back to her red hair (goodbye to that godawful platinum). And whoever did her makeup did a really good job! That said, Linds was there to purge her demons. Confession is good for the soul. And Oprah is a celeb's favorite confessional. She's the high priestess of celebrity-gone-wrong atonement. So what did Lindsay have to say? Let's get to it, shall we. Here are eight watercooler moments from the interview.

1. Her jail sentence. Lindsay was sentenced to 90 days in jail back in 2010. Although Linds said this wasn't her full wake up call, it was like a half wakeup call. Kind of like the phone rings and you hear it, but you're really sleepy, and so you only half wake up, and then you roll over and go back to sleep. Only Lindsay rolled over and then went back to party. "I was terrified," says Linds of her time in the clink. "But not terrified enough to stop what you were doing?" asked Oprah. "No," said Lindsay. She also added that, subconsciously, she "wanted" to go to jail. Just to "get some peace." Dang, life must be rough when jail seems like a good way to relax.

2. Lindsay is an addict. Oprah came right out and asked if Lindsay was an addict and she said "Yeah." So that's settled.

3. Lindsay is addicted to alcohol. Asked her drug of choice, LiLo said alcohol. Though she admits that she wouldn't have turned down a nice Adderall/cocaine/martini cocktail. But that's all in the past.

4. Why this time is different. Sixth time is the charm for Lindsay. She's now feeling "spiritual," and "ready to get honest." She is also "exhausted by the chaos." She'd also like to get back to something close to the proximity of the acting respect she used to enjoy. But, you know, one day at a time ...

5. Lindsay blew all of her money. At one point, Linds was making $7 million a film. She has no idea where it went. I assure you I don't have it.

6. Her parents. Lindsay says she is still very close with her parents, Michael and Dina, despite all of the dysfunction and drama they caused her. "I hate what a bad rap people give my parents," she said. "But I've asked that they keep our life private, please." Hear that, Michael? No more selling your private phone calls with your daughter, 'kay?

7. Lindsay knows she could be dead. Lindsay acknowledged that her lifestyle could have ended tragically, as it has for so many others. "I've got some serious guardian angels," she said. True, but guardian angels get worn out too. No one should count on them for too long.

8. Lindsay won't be going to Europe thanks to Oprah "Buzzkill" Winfrey. When Lindsay's plans to head to Europe for a yoga and meditation retreat leaked to Oprah, she basically forbade Linds to go, worried it would topple her resolve to not party. Because, you know, there's so much partying in those darn meditation retreats! Those stinkin' monks are always getting wasted! Anyway, two days after the interview, LiLo cancelled her trip. Oprah Winfrey: World Mother.

So, that's a wrap, folks. Lindsay sounds like she's serious this time. Lindsay is no dummy and she's got a certain vulnerability about her that makes you root for her. Her insistence that she wanted to be back on top of her career again was a little unsettling -- career success is not the gateway to serenity. But we shall see what happens.

As Oprah said to Lindsay, "I want you to win." I think we'd all like her to win. But sometimes the only way to win is not to play.

Sneak Peek of Lindsay Lohan’s Oprah Interview: The Question That Could Make or Break LiLo’s Career (VIDEO)

All eyes are on Lindsay Lohan this week -- even more so than usual. Fresh out of rehab, the "troubled starlet" is back in the spotlight big time, guest hosting Chelsea Lately tonight (preview clips are awesome!) and having an interview with Oprah Winfrey set to air on OWN on August 18 (in advance of an eight-episode reality series on the same network slated for 2014). Is a real comeback in the cards? It may all depend on how LiLo answers Oprah's hard-hitting questions (previewed in a super intense teaser clip below). Because people are totally ready to give Lohan another chance -- again -- but this time, LiLo is going to have to work to prove that she's on the right track for real ... to her fans, of course, and especially to Oprah. 

In the clip, we hear Oprah ask: "Are you an addict?" and "What does it feel like to be both an adjective and a verb for child-star-gone-wrong?" Whoa -- no pressure!

See, Lohan has little to no margin for error at this point -- the way she handles those questions is key, from a PR perspective at least. And I, for one, am hopeful: If the rumors going around are true, it does sound like LiLo is taking real steps to tackle her issues with alcohol (making sure all booze is removed from hotels, green rooms, etc., before she gets there), even if she does have a lingering problem with Adderall (which we don't know for sure). 

This clip is pretty short -- like, don't blink or you'll miss it short -- but LiLo's facial expressions and Oprah's direct manner speak volumes: 

From that semi-nervous face, looks like Lindsay knows this could be her last chance ...

How do you think Lindsay Lohan will handle Oprah's questions?

Lea Michele Gushes About Cory Monteith in Tearjerking Pre-Death Interview

As if my heart isn't heavy enough already from the details surrounding the July 13 death of Glee star Cory Monteith, there's a new interview out that's literally making it hurt. Back in June Lea Michele and Monteith took a vacation to Mexico where she shot photos for the August issue of Marie Claire Mexico. Inside the magazine, Lea touches on her relationship with Cory, saying that he made her life "incredible."

It's eery. In fact, there's no more appropriate word for the interview than heartbreaking. Marie Claire Mexico's editor-in-chief Ariadne Grant recalled Monteith showing up for the photo shoot in "great spirits," and told E! that the couple was obviously "happy and in love."

Go on. Read the highlights from Lea's last interview about her and Cory before he died, here:

It's more interesting having a relationship with someone you work with because we get more attention because we play boyfriend and girlfriend on the show and we are also in real life. But he is the best person I know, he has made my life so incredible and I am so thankful for him and not only to have him as a partner but also as a coworker.

Lea continues on to talk about the importance of being in a relationship with someone who makes you feel "unstoppable" and "encourages you." For Lea, that person was most obviously Cory.

It's been rumored that Lea and Cory were nearly engaged at the time of his death. The kind of love that they had, from the sounds of it, is the kind so many women hope for. The kind of love they had took years and years to develop based off of such a strong friendship. Sure, the couple played on-screen lovers for some time, but it wasn't until February 2012 (three years after Glee's premier) that they came out as a real-life couple. Maybe that's what made them so supportive of one-another, that time period where they were the closest of friends ... first.

My heart continually aches for Lea. My thoughts and prayers are with her and Cory's family and friends during this tough time.

How do you feel about Lea's interview with Marie Claire Mexico?
