Britney, the VMA's and...Elephant?

Britney Spears shot a promo for the MTV VMAs with host Russell Brand and an elephant.
The promo was shot at Paramount Studios, the location where this year's awards is being held.
A source told E!'s Marc Malkin about the promo, "It was mostly ad-libbed, with Russell asking her for advice about hosting the show. There's also a 9,000-pound elephant in it, as in 'the elephant in the room'".

Trollin' with Lohan

Ali Lohan is in talks to play the female lead in a remake of the 1986 movie "Troll."
Marc Malkin reports that Ali auditioned for the role of Eunice St. Clair who helps some boy named Harry Potter Jr. (not that one) fight an evil troll.
The director had this to say about Ali, "The camera loves her. She's a really good actress...I am personally going to fight for her."

The original movie starred Sonny Bono and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
