(Newser) – The funeral for Jade Goody, the British reality star who died of cervical cancer, will be held April 4, the BBC reports. A funeral procession will go from her house to a nearby church. Elsewhere:

  • Rihanna was spotted house-hunting yesterday in the Hollywood Hills, the Sun reports.
  • Struggling-for-cash Lindsay Lohan probably ain't too happy that her assistant scuffed up her $115,000 Maserati, according to TMZ.

  • Angelina Jolie’s mom, Marcheline Bertrand, died in 2007, but that didn’t stop the state of California from filing a claim against her estate for more than $60,000 in back taxes, TMZ reports.
  • Kiefer Sutherland announced today he will return for the eighth season of 24, AP reports.
  • A lot of money has gone into Britney Spears’ comeback—including $2.7 million in legal fees, according to TMZ. In the last 14 months, 17 lawyers and firms have been hired to handle her affairs.
