Lindsay Lohanended up with an unusual bodyguard atTyler Shields' gallery exhibit"Life Is Not a Fairytale"in downtownLos Angeleson Saturday night. A source at the event tells us photographers covering the exhibit"went nuts"when the starlet arrived at the Poodle Parlor with her little sisterAlito see the photo Shields shot of LiLo as a fanged vampire. (As if we needed further convincing she's a member of Hollywood's undead.)
The paparazzi so overwhelmed the actress that she almost knocked down a Dyson Fan exhibit as she fled inside the venue and locked herself into a small room. Shields came to her rescue when, our source says, he assigned"one of his guys"to escort Lohan around the party while wearing a machine gun strapped to his body."The gun was unloaded,"says the source, but the photographers didn't know that— and adjusted their enthusiasm accordingly.

Liev is a momma's boy
What a mensch!Liev Schreiberplayed the role of good son when he picked up the 2011 Achievement in Film Award at the 25thIsraelFilm Festival at the Paris Theatre on Thursday. EmceeTovah Feldshuhreminisced about what a nice boy Schreiber was when she played his mother in the 1999 flick"A Walk on the Moon."In his acceptance speech, Schreiber thanked his"partner in crime,"Naomi Watts, and his"film mother,"Feldshuh. Then he told the audience that upon learning he would be honored, he did what any good Jewish boy would do: He immediately called his real mom, Heather, who must have been kvelling. The festival continues through May 19 at the AMC Loews at 84th St. and Broadway.
Paz de la Huertahas car troubles
We hope Paz de la Huerta doesn't need this much help remembering lines: A source spotted the"Boardwalk Empire"actress arriving for jury duty at 60 Centre St. Monday morning— with a female assistant in tow. While Paz filled out forms requesting a postponement of her civic duty, the insider says the assistant stood over the starlet reciting de la Huerta's address, phone number and work information. Paz, 26 — who learned about another part of our justice system whenshe was charged with assault last month over a run-in with former reality TV starSamantha Swetra— appeared to be in a pleasant mood. But she grew momentarily irritated when her assistant"didn't have the number for theHBOproduction office"at her fingertips, our source says. She smirked when the clerk who took her paperwork told her,"I've seen you— in the papers."
Tate Donovanlikes to dine
Tate Donovan is quite the foodie. The star of Broadway's"Good People"was dining with a pretty blond at 10 Downing Food and Wine on Sunday night when a spy heard him ask whether the eatery's short-rib burger was made with"grass-fed beef."The waitress was stumped, but Donovan's curiosity must have been satisfied. Chef Jonnatan Leiva soon sent one of the burgers to Tate's table, with a salad for his"vegetarian"date. The couple polished off their PC plates with a glass of red wine each.
Tom Wolfestirs the imagination
Tom Wolfe still knows how to rile the Establishment. The 80-year-old"Radical Chic"writer accepted the Creative Excellence Award at last night'sNational Magazine Awardsand dropped a little depth charge at the end of his speech. After mentioning that there were four great editors in the magazine business, Wolfe named three:Rolling Stone'sJann Wenner, The New Yorker'sDavid RemnickandVanity Fair'sGraydon Carter."As for the fourth, you know who you are,"Wolfe told the audience at 583 Park Avenue (otherwise known as the Third Church of Christ, Scientist). Then he exited the stage, leaving the crowd to debate whether he meant that there are only three Masters of the Universe left in the magazine business - and that the rest were figments of their own imagination.
