London, Aug 16 (ANI): Lindsay Lohan has stood by her 36-person long list of sexual partners that got “leaked”, even after some of the Hollywood stars have denied sleeping with the 28-year-old actress. The ‘Freaky Friday’ star said that the “personal thing”, where no one saw what one does with another, really hurt, after actor James Franco, whose name was on the list, swore on his mother’s life that he just had a kiss with her, and called her “delusional”, the Mirror reported. Maroon 5’s Adam Levine too did not agree with his name being on the ‘Mean Girls’ star’s list. Lohan, who claimed that the list, found in the Beverly Hills Hotel, was stolen from the Betty Ford Clinic during her rehab session, said that it was a cruel thing to steal and leak it.

By Patricia Reaney NEW YORK (Reuters) – From the Galapagos Islands to Australia’s Coral Sea and a marine park off the coast of Mexico, the documentary “Mission Blue” navigates the journey of renowned oceanographer Sylvia Earle as she travels the globe to save the planet’s threatened seas. With stunning underwater footage, the film that airs on Friday on the online streaming service Netflix and in selected U.S. theaters, shows the devastating impact of pollution, overfishing and climate change on the oceans through the eyes of the renowned scientist, explorer and author who has been charting it for decades. “I really wanted to make people aware of this woman and her life because she is such an incredible person and has dedicated so much of her life towards the ocean,” Fisher Stevens, 50, who co-directed the film with Robert Nixon, said in an interview. Stevens, an actor and producer of the 2010 Oscar-winning dolphin-hunting documentary “The Cove,” met Earle, 78, while filming her trip to the Galapagos Islands with scientists, explorers and policy makers more than four years ago.
