Michael Lohan's Weird Ultimatum to Lindsay

4/25/2010 8:51 AM PDT by TMZ Staff   Michael Lohan tells TMZ tomorrow is D-day for Lindsay Lohan -- either meet with him or he's going to court.  But the meeting now has a curious string attached.

Michael says he's been communicating with Lindsay since he went on TMZ Live last Thursday -- telling her he will not take legal action to protect Ali from Lindsay nor will he go to court for a Britney-like conservatorship IF she sits down with him face-to-face and hashes things out. 

Here's the catch.  On TMZ Live, Michael said he wanted to sit with Lindsay and Ali -- just the three of them ... no one else.  Now he's telling us he wants to sit with Lindsay and his lawyer.  BUZZKILL.

Last Michael told us, he was hiring attorney Lisa Bloom -- a very good, very smart lawyer, and daughter of Gloria Allred.  Lisa also just happens to work for an entertainment TV show.

So why suddenly throw a high-profile lawyer in the middle of a father/daughter heart-to-heart?  And where's Ali Lohan in all of this?

Will Lindsay meet with Michael?  Will Michael go to the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services to get Ali out of Lindsay's clutches?  Will Michael try and become the 2010 version of Jamie Spears by becoming conservator/father of the year?  Will Michael leave town?  Will Michael go to Hyde tonight?

Stay tuned ...

'They Shoot Horses, Don't They?' Actor Michael Sarrazin Dies at 70

Michael Sarrazin, a charismatic actor who starred opposite the likes of Jane Fonda, Barbra Streisand and Paul Newman in a flurry of highly regarded films in the 1960s and 1970s, died on Sunday in his native Canada after a brief battle with cancer, his spokesman confirmed. He was 70.

The Quebec-born actor shot to fame in 1969's 'They Shoot Horses, Don't They?' playing an aimless actor wannabe alongside Fonda in a role that lit up the screen, but carried few lines.

"You could have paid me a dollar a week to work on that," he told The Toronto Star in 1994. "It hits you bolt upright; I still get really intense when I watch it."
He followed that up two years later in the Newman hit 'Sometimes a Great Notion' and a string of successful films, including 'Harry in Your Pocket' and Streisand's 'For Pete's Sake.'

His last high profile role came in 1976's 'The Gumball Rally.'

His career may have taken a whole different path if he'd been allowed to take the role of Joe Buck in the iconic 'Midnight Cowboy' in 1968. Universal vetoed the casting and went with Jon Voight instead.

As the 1980s rolled around, his roles became more minor and he transitioned to a mix of film and television, including 'Murder, She Wrote' and 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents.'

Sarrazin is survived by two daughters, a brother and a sister, all from Montreal.

Lawyer in Michael Jackson Trial Says Singer Committed Suicide Over Finances

The lawyer for Dr. Conrad Murray, the man accused of administering the drugs that killed Michael Jackson, is claiming that his client is an innocent man.

The AP reports that Murray's lawyer, Edward Chernoff, is arguing that it was Jackson himself and not Murray that ended the King of Pop's life.

In a pre-trial hearing, Chernoff put forth the theory that Jackson was so distraught over his declining empire and deep debt that he took his own life, and asked for access to Jackson's financial records to gather proof.
Prosecutors slammed Chernoff, claiming that his allegations were part of a ploy to defame Jackson.

The judge denied Chernoff's request on grounds that it was an unnecessary invasion of Jackson's privacy.

The court is still screening jurors for the upcoming trial.

Inside Michael Bublè's Wedding Weekend Extravaganza

Michael Bublè's new wife Luisana Loreley Lopilato de la Torre wore not one, not two, but three wedding dresses over the course of their wedding extravaganza this past weekend.

After an intimate civil ceremony that took place in Beunos Aires, Argentina last Thursday, the couple had a bigger ceremony and reception in Villa Maria Paz on Saturday for 300 friends and family members, Bublè's rep tells PopEater.

For the ceremony, the bride wore a multi-layered gown designed by Argentinean designer Sylvie Burstin and later at the reception, changed into a Marchesa gown. The groom wore a suit by DSquared.

The married couple's first dance was to Dean Martin's Everybody Loves Somebody. Later, famous Argentinean singer Ricardo Montaner serenaded the couple and the groom himself sang a song he wrote especially for the bride: Haven't Met You Yet.
Bublé and de la Torr got engaged last November. "He designed the setting himself. He's very proud to be engaged to her," a friend tells PEOPLE.

The couple met in November of 2008. "They met at a party the record company threw for him after his show in Buenos Aires. The head of the label wanted to introduce Michael to Argentina's most famous actress. When he met her, he said it was love at first sight," the friend adds.
