Bacon ... hockey ... maple syrup ... Lindsay Lohan -- all things that've received the official Canadian stamp of approval ... TMZ has learned.

Charlie Sheen : Talks About 'Cringe-able' Meltdown On 'Today Show'

Charlie Sheen appeared on Thursday’s "Today Show," ostensibly to talk about his new show "Anger Management," but mostly to celebrate still being alive.

"There were people who probably last year at this time would have placed a bet that you wouldn’t even be around, and I mean literally," said Matt Lauer referring to Sheen’s epic meltdown last year.

"Yeah, I would have taken that action," joked the actor, who went on to describe footage of his 2011 antics as "cringe-able."

Sheen talked about wanting to relaunch his image and defended his decision to still drink alcohol despite his well-documented history of substance abuse.

He also explained that he looks at "Anger Management" as a chance for redemption.

"I couldn’t have the ‘Two and a Half Men’ thing be my television legacy… I couldn’t have it end on that note," said Sheen. "So if this is going to be the swan song, it’s got to be a beautiful experience. And so far, eight days [shooting "Anger Management"] was more fun than eight years [on "Two and a Half Men"]."

Lindsay Lohan : Criminal record Creates 'Issues' For New Movie

Lindsay Lohan has just learned another lesson as to why crime doesn't pay ... because she's having to jump through hoops to get a Canadian work permit to shoot a movie that could jump start her career.



Lindsay has been cast as Liz Taylor in the Lifetime movie, "Liz and Dick," which will be shot in Toronto. Problem is -- Lindsay has 2 DUIs and a theft conviction on her record, and Canada doesn't much like convicted criminals earning cash in Canuck country -- then again, they like money.



So, there is a very complicated process that Lindsay must follow to get a work permit.



Lindsay is in court tomorrow, where Judge Stephanie Sautner is expected to take Lindsay off probation for her Beverly Hills DUI case. The judge is also expected to change Lindsay's status in the jewelry heist case, from formal probation to informal -- meaning she won't have to report to her probation officer or appear in court, as long as she doesn't break the law.



We're told Lindsay's lawyer is filling out the maze of paperwork required to get the work permit, and the results of tomorrow's hearing will make it easier. It's a pretty sure bet Canada will give Lindsay the right to shoot the movie.

The question is : Will she or won't she get into Canunk country to get a work permit ; stay tuned , updates as they become available .

Miss Universe Canada Disqualified "OMG"

She may look every bit the part of a beauty queen, but Jenna Talackova has lost her chance for the crown because she was born a biological male.

The 23-year-old Miss Universe Canada finalist was disqualified from the competition after it was discovered she had undergone sexual reassignment surgery, reports CTV .

National director of Miss Universe Canada Denis Davila told the Toronto Star that while they consider Talackova to be a "real girl," Miss Universe rules stipulate that contestants must be a "naturally born female."

Davila also told the Star that Talackova indicated on her registration form that she was born female. Talackova was disqualified the same day she revealed she was in fact born a male.

According to a statement from Miss Universe Canada, Talackova was disqualified because "she did not meet the requirements to compete despite having stated otherwise on her entry form. We do, however, respect her goals, determination and wish her the best."

In a 2010 interview Talackova said she knew she was a female at age 4 and began hormone therapy at age 14. She underwent reassignment surgery at 19.

Talackova told CTV she's "not giving up" and is consulting a lawyer. In the mean time, Miss Universe Canada has removed all photos of the Vancouver resident from their website and another woman has taken her spot.

Kim Kardashian : Flour Bomb "WTF"

Kim Kardashian  responded to being flour-bombed on the red carpet Thursday night.

"It was crazy," she told "TMZ Live" on Friday.

The reality star said of the incident, which was allegedly the work of an anti-fur activist "Whatever your beliefs are… that’s bullying."

Kardashian also felt it’s hypocritical of the woman who attacked her to use violence in protesting violence against animals.

She observes, "If you’re trying to promote nonviolence towards animals… why are you trying to be violent towards humans?"

And while she told the show, "I don’t think someone like that should get away with those types of actions," she didn’t press charges because "I didn’t want to hold up the event."

Kardashian’s family also reacted to the flour-bombing, taking to Twitter to show their support for Kim.

Khole  wrote, "She handled it amazing! What a low to flour bomb someone." She added in a later tweet, "I wish I was with my sister tonight. I bet you that woman wouldn’t have dared tried a thing."

Kourtney said, "Classy to flour bomb my sister at her charity event helping women. I wonder if they would have dared thrown the flour at my hormonal and pregnant self!"

Family matriarch Kris Jenner  also chimed in, posting on her blog, "I am so proud of my daughter for handling this situation so professionally and with such poise! Kim wasn’t phased by the attack and simply walked away from the red carpet, brushed herself off and headed right back out!!"

We’re still waiting for a gem from  Scott Disick .

How Likely Is It That They'll Split ... HUH ???

It's no surprise that the Hollywood set doesn't have the best firestorm, celebrities' ages, the length of their courtship, their previous marital history, and their fame." But when unions began crumpling far sooner than their predicted end dates (Kenny Chesney and Renee Zellweger were married for only 291 days while they had a 100 percent probability of making it through the year) or were still going strong after their calculated expirations (happily coupled Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's predicted relationship success rate was less than 12 percent), the equation was revisited.

Now, instead of predicting marriage D-Days based on a variable of Google hits, the formula includes a figure that divides a celebrity's New York Times mentions by the amount of times their name appears in The National Enquirer -- a much needed-update that accounts for the ebb and flow of fame.

"This is a major improvement in the equation," Sundem told the Times. "It turns out that overall fame doesn't matter as much as the flavor of the fame. It's tabloid fame that dooms you. Sure, Katie Holmes had about 160 Enquirer hits, but she had more than twice as many NYT hits. A high NYT/ENQ ratio also explains why Chelsea Clinton and Kate Middleton have better chances than the Kardashian sisters."

So are Hollywood couples aware that the fate of their relationships may lie in a simple game of division? Kelly Ripa certainly is. The "Live! With Kelly" host and her husband, Mark Consuelos, charted the longevity of their own marriage on Tuesday's show. The couple calculated that they have a 93 percent chance of staying together for the next five years, 49 percent for the next 10 years and 38 percent for the next 20 years.

"The way we stack up against the celebrity couples, we are, like, long in the tooth,"desperate pleas for privacy that the Hollywood set doesn't have the best track record when it comes to "till death do us part." It seems that a week doesn't go by without a Tinseltown couple calling it quits, and the attendant media firestorm, desperate pleas for privacy and speculation as to who will walk away with what.

But with the odds stacked against them -- according to the International Business Times, celebrity marriages have a 35 percent success rate -- what if there was a formula that could calculate whether or not a couple was destined for "happily ever after," before they were even married?

In 2006, the Sundem/Tierney Unified Celebrity Theory -- a mathematical equation to determine the length of a celebrity marriage -- was published. The equation, created by "Brain Trust" author Garth Sundem was based on a number of factors, including "the Ripa told her audience. "I'm proud of that."

Forget the writing on the wall; when it comes to calculating celebrities' romantic longevity, the writing looks a lot like your kid's math homework.

Oprah : Responds To Massive Blacklash "WTF"

Oprah Winfrey responded to criticism about her interview with Whitney Houston's daughter Bobbi Kristina in a new TMZ report.

Oprah scored a huge interview with the daughter of the pop legend in the aftermath of Houston's tragic death. She weighed in on the experience when a TMZ reporter caught her getting into a car.

"I think it went really well," Oprah said. "I think people really responded and I think the whole country now got to see how [Bobbi Kristina] feels and what she's going through."

Oprah seemed shocked when the reporter said that people criticized the interview, according to TMZ. The site reported that she "came under fire for letting the Houston family off the hook ... especially when Whitney's sister-in-law suggested the singer was murdered." She also faced backlash from critics who alleged that she was exploiting the tragedy for ratings.

"Really, I didn't know," Oprah said. "I don't look at the criticism. I just move through life doing what I do with the best intentions. I try to be a force for something good - I strive to present something inspirational. And if people don't like it, that's okay. I'm always trying to have the good in mind and if people don't get that it's okay."
