Lindsay Lohan got another job! She’s going to be hosting the Singapore Grand Prix. Apparently, Singapore loves their crack heads? Maybe not – she got the gig because Pussy Cat Doll Nicole Scherzinger had to drop out. That’s right, y’all. Lindsay’s now taking secondhand gigs from a Pussy Cat Doll. Lindsay’s all over it, too, telling the Associated Press that she’s a “big fan” of both the Grand Prix and of NASCAR. Oh, really? She also basically gives a “no comment” about the Nicolas Prugo-burglary situation:
Actress Lindsay Lohan will host three days of concerts featuring Beyonce Knowles and Black Eyed Peas to coincide with Sunday night’s Singapore Grand Prix.
Lohan, 23, was a last-minute replacement after Pussy Cat Doll Nicole Scherzinger dropped out earlier this month. The concerts, known as F1 Rocks, run Thursday to Saturday and include No Doubt, ZZ Top, Simple Minds and N.E.R.D.
“It’s a bunch of amazing performers whom I’m a really big fan of,” Lohan said in an interview.
Lohan said she’s also a Formula One fan.
“I like to drive. I like cars. I like fast cars,” she said. “I studied NASCAR for almost a year for Herbie. It was very hot inside those cars.”
Lohan starred in 2005 in “Herbie: Fully Loaded,” a comedy about a Volkswagen Beetle on the racing circuit.
Lohan’s Hollywood Hills home was broken into last month, and last week police arrested Nicholas Prugo, 18, on suspicion of felony burglary in connection with the case.
Lohan, who arrived in Singapore on Thursday, declined to say whether she knew Prugo.
“I don’t really want to get into the details of that,” Lohan said. “That’s for the detectives to do.”Last year’s Singapore Grand Prix was F1’s first-ever night race.

Well, good for her I guess. It’s always nice to see someone will step up and help Lindsay support herself (and her habit?). Lindsay’s had a really busy week, you know. Lindsay spent the Emmys doing her patented cracked-out tweets to Samantha Ronson. Nothing as good as the ever-classic “For their not only COMPLETE, BUT SUBSTANISAN…for being a friend before a sell-out… the term “self out” was coined from ME and I gave them sooooooo much insight…you JUST told me that your friends are worth more than i am 2 your family & that i’m gross”. But some of these are pretty… awesome? Sad? Pathetic? Stuff like: “Nice to see @samantharonson has found a 90210 rather than being a loyal” and “Nice to see @samantharonson has found a party rather than being honest”. The best was “@samantharonson off to another country, send my love to your family lol J”. After her Twitter freakout, she threw beer cans at paparazzi, and was generally bratty. Good to see that kind of behavior gets rewarded with work.
Looks like she’s been making out with a chimney with those dirty face photos.
As I recall, Singapore has some pretty harsh drug laws and very little mercy about it. She may want to use this as a time to Just Say No.
Is Singapore where they cane you for chewing gum? I doubt they’ll put up with her shenanigans in that country. Expect jail time when she’s caught smuggling drugs in.
what I’ve learned from gossip blogs this morning…
2005:
LiLo starred in Herbie fully loaded
End of Pittistan
Does anyone remember how long ago Herbie acutually was? Linds was just a baby. Semi-clean and semi-sober semi-succsessful.
ah, the good old days
@ susette: I sure hope we don’t get into a international situation using a Clinton to save a Lohan. If if happens, we should send Rush to get her or leave her arse there
“I like to drive. I like cars. I like fast cars,” she said. “I studied NASCAR for almost a year for Herbie. It was very hot inside those cars.”
Well, we all know she likes to “drive fast” & how, exactly, does one “study NASCAR”?
But the “its hot in those cars” statement is possibly the most insightful thing shes ever said!
I believe Singapore executes if a person has a certain amount of pot in their possession, plus they flog you with a cane if you vandalize. Happened some time ago to some stupid student.
@Lem – LOL! That would be so surreal I’m almost hoping it happens.
I just looked up the code. 500 g of Cannabis gets you the death penalty. 30g of Coke will do it, too. 250g for meth. She may want to take note.
Oh yeah, NASCAR and Herbie the Lovebug are SOOOOOOOOO similar! God she is an idiot!
Does she have a black eye in that picture?
Herbie was so long ago and not even a sucess (in the UK anyhow)…she has done nothing good since and even herboe is questionable…
Lindsay seems to have borderline personality disorder.
She lashes out at the ones she loves in order to get attention, good or bad.
Funny how nobody asked her who her favourite F1 drivers is – Nascar barely registers for anyone but the most ardent petrolhead outside of the US as far as I’m aware. That would be like Keira Knightly hosting an American Football event, asked the same question and she blethered on about “how she appreciates football as she studied soccer for a few months before filming Bend it Like Beckham. Back at the dawn of time”.
Seeing her squirm around Singapore’s morality and drug laws should be hi-f*cking-larious. If she does get caught, hopefully they won’t send a Clinton but Cheney instead. Then they could throw both their *sses in the clink! (I’m tired. I’ll be more charitable later).
She’ll forgo the illegal stuff as long as she can still bring over her pharmies which are what her true dependancy is on. My educated guess is percocet, vicodin and/or oxycontin are her thing. If she brings them in original prescription bottles instead of stashed in her bra and whatnot, she won’t get into trouble.
lol @ herbie.
its pretty bad when you name drop ‘herbie fully loaded’ as a reason for us taking you seriously.
parasite hilton was in dubai or qatar or something and plenty of celebs attend events in the middle east which has equally strong drug laws and they all did fine. no one hassles celebs while they are chilling in these places doing promotional stuff. she’ll be fine.
Is that a bruise on her arm and a black eye or just dirt?
Oh PLEASE let her break a big law so she gets thrown into a Singapore prison. Pleeeeeeaaaaase.
“Can I offer you a piece of chewing gum Linds?”
Does she know a damn about F1? Its completely different from Nascar(and a lot better too).
Plus Sam will be in Singapore too, she has a DJ gig. And don’t be ridiculous, they don’t cane you for a bloody stick of gum.
“no one hassles celebs while they are chilling in these places doing promotional stuff. she’ll be fine.”
Usually because they’re screwing the elites.
She was shopping at Zara (with SamRon) apparently. No Paps there. They were like invisible people, cuz no one expected to see Lindsay. The news only broke last night that she would be hosting lol.
I think she just flew to be with SamRonson, chase, much?
Okay, I just have to say this:
“It’s a bunch of amazing performers whom I’m a really big fan of,” Lohan said in an interview.
Hey loser, possibly you could work on your grammar a little. I believe it should be: “….bunch of amazing performers of whom I’m a really big fan.”
duh.
i’m guessing she jumped at the chance to host this because sam was going to be in the area.
Speaking of sam.. I just ran into the STRANGEST rumor… and Sam isn’t denying it on her twitter after it was mentioned… could this actually be true?
http://tvwatch.people.com/2009/09/23/samantha-ronson-to-guest-star-on-90210/
i mean it’s not the first time a well-known got a quick walk-on role (i assume that’s all it is) but it’s still amusing that Samantha, DJ, no acting credit to her name, is getting a (small) TV role when lindsay is taking the leavings of a pussycat doll.
Edit: i am a moron.. Samantha did confirm it, she admitted it was only for a second, and then, true to form, she threw the spotlight on N.E.R.D. saying they performed on the episode and were awesome.
Jesus, she is looking old!
Anyway, she needs a job, those lips aren’t going to pay for themselves.
First Orange Forehead Alert for today! ding-ding!
Looks like Dirty Sanchez Alert as well … 😕
Why is her forehead orange and cracked, and that looks like a bruise on her wrist in the first photo.
I like Herbie! I watched it many times. And I also have my NASCAR game, I really love it. And Lohan is going to be the host, how come she gets dirty face in the photo?
