Kate Major

Michael Lohan beats up Kate Major

I guess it's domestic violence day here on Celebslam. Lindsay Lohan's dad Michael was arrested Monday night in L.A. after slapping around his ex-girlfriend Kate Major. According to TMZ, Kate stopped by the apartment the two used to share to pick up some of her stuff, which apparently didn't sit well with Michael:

We're told Michael became upset that Kate was packing up for good, and "went ballistic."  They started arguing, and Kate turned her back on him.  She told cops, Michael then grabbed her and threw her across the room.  Kate says she struck the bedpost with her left shoulder.

Kate claims she threatened to call the cops, and then Michael allegedly took a towel and began choking her.  She also claims Michael then threatened to cut himself with a razor blade and tell cops she did it -- if she called police.

Kate went to the Sheriff's sub-station, where cops photographed what we're told are "visible injuries."

Michael was arrested and booked on inflicting corporal injury on a co-habitant, false imprisonment, and preventing the report of victimization -- all felony charges.

God damn, these Lohan parents are insane. And really, you can't blame the kids for being such screw ups -- they never had a chance. They would have been better off being raised by a Playstation 2 and a bunch of frozen pizzas. It'll be a minor miracle if the youngest Lohan, Cody, doesn't grow up to be some kind of world record-setting serial killer.

You may have heard yesterday that Lindsay Lohan's dad Michael got engaged to his girlfriend Kate Major. What you probably didn't hear is that Lindsay used to be Kate's boss. Um, OK. From Rob Shuter at Popeater:

As a fellow celebrity reporter, I have known Kate for years -- and in 2008 we worked together at Star Magazine. And I know first-hand that Kate was once a key member of Lindsay's entourage, serving (either paid or unpaid) as a driver, confidant, an all-purpose factotum.

Another mutual friend provides some additional context: "Kate was really close with Lindsay when she was in rehab at Cirque Lodge in 2007. Kate drove her back to Los Angeles from Utah and was the one that brought in the first-person post-rehab interview for In Touch."

Adds the mutual friend: "They hung out and partied a lot together after that. But Lindsay stopped returning her calls when Kate started getting closer to Michael Lohan. Kate used to go out to the Hamptons and hit events with him and his girlfriend [later reputed fiancee] Erin Muller. She had a picture on her desk of the three of them at a white party out there."

Boy I would love to hear what Lindsay thinks about all of this. Hmmmm, how would I get a hold of her right now . . . wait I know -- is anyone near the gutter at the intersection of Hollywood Blvd. and Vine right now? Can you go over and poke Lindsay with a stick to wake her up and then ask her for me? Thanks!
