Rajnikanth admitted to best Asian hospital in Singapore

Tamil superstar Rajinikanth has been admitted to Singapore's top hospital, the Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre, according to medical sources.

The 61-year-old actor arrived in Singapore on Saturday with his wife and two daughters after he was discharged from a Chennai hospital where he spent two weeks being treated for respiratory problems.

He is now at the Mount Elizabeth centre which is considered one of the best hospitals in Asia.

However the hospital has refused to comment on Rajinikanth's health saying that it was not obliged to disclose the identity of its patients when they request complete privacy.

After the 'Endhiran' star was discharged from the Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre in Chennai on Friday, the hospital had released a bulletin saying that the actor was "cheerful" and doing well.

"He is cheerful, taking his food himself, spending time with family. He has scheduled his trip abroad for a change and relaxation and incidentally to go in for selective checkups," said the bulletin.

The actor suffered from exhaustion on April 29, the first day of the shoot of his latest venture 'Raana' and was admitted to the Isabel Hospital in Chennai.

He was discharged the same day only to be readmitted on May 4 for allergic bronchitis and viral fever. He was then admitted to the Sri Ramachandra Medical Centre on May 13 for respiratory infection and other problems.

Shilpa Shetty's estate taken over by squatter gang

 According to IBN live, A private estate in Britain that is home to a host of celebrities - including Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty - is reportedly being taken over by a gang of squatters.

The celebrity residents of the St. George's Hill community in Weybridge, Surrey, are now being asked to be 'vigilant' following the arrival of the squatters, the Daily Mail reported.

Former residents of the estate include singer Elton John, former Beatle Ringo Starr and Hollywood actress Kate Winslet.

Six squatters reportedly moved into the abandoned three million pound, six-bedroom Woodlawn Cottage on the exclusive estate in April, and claim they were not acting illegally.

The property was reportedly abandoned six years ago and has since become derelict. The squatters say they plan to stay as long as possible.

"It is legal for me to be here. I found the place on Google maps so I came up to have a look and the place was open. The locks had been broken off, no one was living here, it was completely open - so why not?" a squatter named Stefan Cybulski said.

Homeowners now say they want the illegal movers out.

"It does seem pretty extraordinary that the police can't do anything to get these people off the estate," a resident said.

"They have no right to be here, yet the law appears to be on their side - it's completely wrong."

Properties on the estate are worth nearly 10 million pounds.

A security guard is now being employed to keep the property under surveillance. Police have set up extra patrol of the area.

Lindsay Lohan to spend her few days under house arrest in luxury house

The Mean Girls star was there to have an ankle monitor fitted before she began a jail sentence at a luxury beachside villa for parole violation. Lindsay  Lohan returned to jail today but her stay there was only temporary.

Lohan will have to spend 35 days in confinement at the house - longer than the three weeks or less she would have spent in a solitary confinement unit at the jail.

Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner sentenced  Lohan  to 120 days in jail and 480 hours of community service in April after determining the actress took a necklace without permission from a store near her home.

The judge said at a hearing that if Lohan served time under house arrest, she could not leave to whittle down her community service hours at a women's shelter and the county morgue.

Lohan, 24, pleaded no contest earlier this month to misdemeanour grand theft but did not receive additional jail time. The jail term was imposed after Judge Sautner determined Lohan violated her probation in a 2007 drunken driving case.

Luxury home

Lohan's sentence will be spent in a luxury house in Venice, California.

She pays just under $7100 a month in rent for the villa, which features four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a rooftop deck.

Her on-again off-again girlfriend Samantha Ronson, 33, lives right next door.

Lohan has been cast to appear as the wife of John Gotti Jr in a biopic of the infamous New York mob family. Shooting is scheduled to begin later this year.
