Sideshow: Murphy's widower dead

Brittany Murphy

's widower,

Simon Monjack

, 39, was found dead Sunday night in his Hollywood home, five months after his wife's death. The cause of death has yet to be determined, but police say there were no signs of foul play or suicide. Brit's mom,

Sharon Murphy

, who shares a house with Simon, called 911 when she found him unconscious. Paramedics responded, but it was too late.

Monjack rep Roger Neal says the British screenwriter had heart troubles and was due for a bypass but kept putting off the operation. Simon's mother, Linda Monjack, in January told People that he suffered a minor heart attack a week before Brit died. She died Dec. 20 of pneumonia, with prescription medications playing a role.

Brit's brother, Tony Bertolotti, tells RadarOnline he's not surprised about the death. "[He] had all his wagons circled and he couldn't do it any longer," he said.

Simon, who had watched paramedics try to revive his wife, later told reporters his "world was destroyed" by her death.

The

Lindsay Lohan

tragedy reached a new nadir Monday when the onetime sweetie-pie was slapped with a sexy new accessory: an alcohol-monitoring SCRAM device.

LiLo, who last week missed a probation hearing stemming from her two '07 DUI convictions, on Monday finally made it to court, where she was severely rebuked by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Marsha Revel.

LiLo, who remains free on $100,000 bail, has been in trouble since ditching her court-ordered alcohol education classes. The judge, who could have sent her to jail, ordered the actress to complete her classes and to refrain from drugs and alcohol.

"I want the court to know that Ms. Lohan intends to comply," LiLo lawyer Shawn Chapman Holley told the court. He objected - to no avail - to the SCRAM jewelry.

He was also ticked at Revel's insistence that LiLo must submit to random weekly drug testing - which must be administered in Los Angeles. It means LiLo may have to scrap an upcoming movie shoot in Texas.

LiLo is next due in court July 6.

Dolly says this year, Miley will finally take off her mystical magical Hannah Montana wig and reveal her true identity as lil' ol' Miley.

The unveiling, Dolly says, will be met with critical jeers, "just the same way they're doing now in the real press." Miley, 17, was recently criticized for a video in which she did a sexually-charged bump 'n' grind with So You Think You Can Dance judge Adam Shankman.

Dolly says she asked Miley, " 'Do you feel like we're just living out the show we did?' And [Miley] said, 'Yeah, but that's great, because I was at least braced for it.' "

The Lady also sends out a shiver of fear and concern when she announces that her aunt Joanne died of lupus. The warbler got all cagey when asked if she's been tested for the disease, which has a strong genetic component.

"Yes," she said before a dramatic pause. "But I don't want anyone to be worried."
