“The pregnancy has taken him by surprise. He assumed she was using birth control,” claims a tabloid source. “Simon thought this was a casual relationship – friends with benefits. The pregnancy was not planned. And he's wondering if he got taken for a ride. "He is feeling tricked. No question that Simon will want to be part of the baby's life, but I'm not so sure he wants to be part of Lauren's."

Meanwhile ... one insider tells the New York Post that despite reports, Andrew and Lauren “weren’t estranged” when Simon started hittin’ dat. Some of Lauren's friends agree and add that Lauren is a gold-digger who got knocked up by Simon on purpose to get her hands on his money. “She’s a total gold-digger,” one pal told The Post. “The pregnancy was by design.” Another insider told the New York Daily News, “She has a thing for rich, powerful men. She knows having Simon’s baby will mean he will always be in her life and he is a very wealthy and generous man.”

One final LoHo note ...  After years of public feuding with her troubled dad, Lindsay has decided that he's actually a good influence on her life after all. According to TMZ, Linds used a therapy session near the end of her rehab stay to decide which of her friends and loved ones should be cut loose and figured that Michael Lohan was on the good list -- despite his own battles with drugs, booze and violent behavior. So if he's a positive influence, who's considered negative?

TODAY IN AMANDA BYNES - JUDGE DENIES REQUEST TO LEAVE HOSPITAL: AMANDA BYNES is going to have to stay a little longer. In a hearing that took place in the hospital psych ward, a judge decided that Amanda is not ready to be released just yet. Mostly because she isn't totally stable yet, and her condition hasn't been formally diagnosed.

TMZ reports the 27-year-old appeared before a judge in the psych ward, and her lawyer argued there is no legal basis to hold her, saying she is perfectly capable of caring for herself. The judge wound up agreeing with doctors who argued that Amanda needed to stay in the hospital to monitor her mental condition. The news isn't necessarily bad. Sources say the meds are really helping Amanda. For instance, she's no longer talking to herself or insulting people. In fact, the only thing Amanda has called "ugly" today is the situation Simon Cowell finds himself in. Hi-Yo!
