Ugh, where to start? Last night was Lindsay Lohan’s first night of her London show, Speed-the-Plow. The reviews were pretty bad, which we expected. Apparently, Lindsay kept forgetting her lines. To the point where even when she was trying to be serious and dramatic, the audience laughed at her. Some declared her an “embarrassment.” Some say that if she simply learns her lines, the play might be okay. Oh, and guess what? The ticket prices were dramatically slashed earlier this week. The tickets used to cost £35 but now cost £15. You know who I feel sorry for? Richard Schiff. I LOVE Richard Schiff (Tobey on The West Wing). He doesn’t deserve this.
Anyway, Lindsay covers the new issue of Time Out London, because she’s so private and she doesn’t want people to pay attention to her, that’s why she’s literally done photoshoots for five magazines, plus a baker’s dozen “exclusive” interviews with UK newspapers. Because she’s so private and she had to leave New York because she was getting too much attention because of her stupid Oprah show. The Time Out journalist notes that Lindsay did not stagger in drunk and cracked out, but she was 15 minutes late. You can read the piece here. Some highlights:
Time Out: Why London?
‘I was here in London already! I said to my agent: “Look, I really need to move to London, I have to get out of New York.” After the Oprah show, I felt I’d lost my privacy.’So you’re a proper Londoner now?
‘I have a flat, yeah. I sold my place in New York. I love the energy of New York but I feel London’s more adult. I mean, things do close here.How did you land the role exactly?
‘So I’ve moved to London and I’m getting a little bored because I’m not working, and then my agent got a call from one of the producers and Lindsay Posner saying, “Can we meet tomorrow? We want her to do this play.” And we went for lunch at the Ivy and they said, “So you wanna do it?” and I said, “Yeah” and they said, “Great.” I said, “You’re just giving me the part, that’s it? Oh my God, thank you so much!”’In your short time here you’ve become synonymous with [ludicrously exclusive restaurant] Chiltern Firehouse. Is that fair?
‘When I first went there it wasn’t properly open. And then like all of a sudden there’s tons of paparazzi, so I stopped going for a while. But it’s funny I’ve become associated with it.’Do you want to go back into the movies? Is part of the reason for doing this to make you employable again?
‘I think it definitely helps. I think it shows that I can be accountable and I think it helps with the perception that I’m just a psycho that goes out and stuff. I’ve done things, but people grow up and they change. I’m willing to work hard to gain back the respect that I once had and have lost.’Is there a five-year plan?
‘In five years I would like to be married and have children, and hopefully be at the Oscars, but that’s as far as it goes for now.’‘It’s been ten years since ‘Mean Girls’: how do you feel about it looking back?
‘People really love the movie: how do you top that? I was with Tina Fey [‘Mean Girls’ writer] the other day and I said we should do another “Mean Girls”, like an older version where they’re all housewives and they’re all cheating. That would be really funny. I’ll harass Tina to write it.’
Again with the Oscars!! Dear Lindsay: it’s not going to happen. Seriously. You are never going to be nominated for an Oscar. You are never going to be asked to present at the Oscars. You burned those bridges long ago.
As for her pitch for a Mean Girls sequel… I could actually see Tina Fey being interested in that kind of thing. If you were a 30 Rock fan, you know Tina was able to find a lot of humor in those Real Housewife shows (Queen of Jordan was amazing), and I could see Tina doing a brilliant, subversive blend of Real Housewives and adult Mean Girls. And it should totally star Rachel McAdams, Lizzy Caplan, Amanda Seyfried and Lacey Chabert. But they should recast Lindsay’s role with Emma Stone.
Lindsay’s curtain call last night:

I dont feel bad for the theater company. They hired her KNOWING what would happen. They did it for the exposure, plain and simple.
exactly. And boy, does she look bad in these photos.
I think she looks quite nice!
Sure she looks quite nice…for a 48 year old.
The producers knew what they were doing. Tickets are apparently dirt cheap too so they can count on the “morbidly curious” audience. It’s gross though because skilled and trained actors are all over London. If she’s going to be such an amateur she should be starting in amateur theatre.
Only because it’s stage makeup and the lighting used to illuminate the thetre she gets a pass. It’s harsh.
I agree.
Yep. Anyone who hires her for anything now knows exactly what they’re going to get.
+10000
I don’t feel bad for theater goers too. You expected a train wreck, you got it. £15 is still stiff.
I think they did it solely because Lind’s sugar daddy gave them an offer they couldn’t refuse. I doubt any well established, reputable playhouse would think, “Let’s invite the worst of the worst to degrade our name and others involved by association because hey, attention.”
I never thought of that, and I think you’ve probably nailed it.
Maybe his name is Oscar, and that’s what she keeps referring to.
I think that’s very likely to be true.
Anybody who casts Lindsey Lohan or pays for a ticket to see knows what they are in store for. It is not a secret that she is a huge mess of a human being. No sympathy for anybody except her fellow castmates.
Yeah, and Sorry Mr Schiff – anyone who hires Lohan thinking “this time, she’ll behave!!” is an idiot
Why am I suddenly remembering the plot to The Producers? Hmmmmm….
The good news: she showed up. The bad news: she showed up.
Exactly.
LOL
Ouch! (LOL!)
Haha
im sort of shocked/impressed she even showed up
@ Brin
Bwahahahahahahaha
She made it through a show though! Many people here lose bets based on that alone!
I’m one of those people! I’m stunned that she did a show. Also, her hair looks clean. She’s set the bar pretty low, hasn’t she?
She showed up and could stand. That’s better than I was expecting.
*snort*
Opening Night nerves?
Well it wasn’t opening night – it wasjust a preview. All three actors forgot their lines and asked for call outs. I’m no Lohan apologist, but I think everyone should wait until opening night before trying to figure out how she’s going to do.
She forgot her lines????No way, not this brilliant professional.
hahaha, good one .
And, yeah for Mean Girls 2! With the cast Kaiser suggested!
Although, is it really forgetting if you never actually learned them? 😀
$10 says she forgets them for the length of the play.
@marianne totally agree! They must be as cracked out as her if they expected her to actually deliver anything of substance (you know acting not illegal substances though I’m pretty sure she woulda supplies those too!)
This is the perfect moment to break out a childhood favorite: DUH!
I think the show is still in previews, but still you should know your lines by that point.
Apparently Richard Schiff also forgot lines and had to be prompted too. Fails all round.
This +1. It is previews and both forgot their lines and the reviews aren’t that bad at all. She’ll probably still do something to mess it all up but considering we didn’t think there would even be an opening night, this isn’t that bad at all.
I’m glad you pointed that out. Kinda puts Lilo’s gaffs into perspective.
Well some audience members said she actually had the script onstage with her, hidden in a prop book… Which is not good.
But in general, yeah previews are considered final rehearsals where everything is still being ironed out.
It’s not like this was “opening night” as it were.
Actually , they should both be called on the carpet for this. “Richard did it too” is as childish a rationalization as I’ve ever heard.
Previews are an opportunity to iron out performance but you are expected to know your lines. It’s really the most basic principle study the script and know your lines inside out. If you know your lines you are free to give a performance.
To be fair on schiff he has a lot more lines. Lohans part is actually very small apart from
one big speech. But it’s unbelivable that 2 of the actors couldn’t be bothered to learn their lines, preview or not it’s disrespectful to the other actor ( the only proper theatre actor, a Brit who probably no one cares about but is apprently the only one who turned in a decent performance) and the paying audience.
Also, this play (like all Mamet), relies on timing. Mamets style of writing is rapid fast banter that has its own rhythm. If Lindsay is forgetting lines, she’s also messing up that rhythm. It is hard to work with actors who forget their lines because yours no longer make sense without theirs.
Do we know if Richard was forgetting his lines, or being awkward in covering for her dropped balls?
I wonder if Lindsey messing up threw him off too?
I’m amazed she made it on stage at all.
Please not despite starring a HUGE American movie star in Hohan *snorts* the theater
Was half empty and people were falling asleep.
Judging from the sets in these photos, the production looks pretty budget.
A show in previews are basically just to make sure everything runs smoothly. She should know her lines and her having a script onstage is ridiculous. I’ve seen plenty of shows in preview and they run like it was opening night. Plus preview is when the critics review the show and audience generates buzz.
That being said…none of us should be surprised. We knew this was coming
People are just going for the freak show, aren’t they? Actually, it all makes me feel quite icky. Lohan is an unrepentantly awful person but I’m not too impressed by either the hiring or the people paying to point and laugh.
Just ugh all round, really.
You said that well, I agree.
Yes, at this point, I think anyone hiring her is actually harming and enabling her. They’re just using her notoriety. It makes me feel icky, too, though I know she brings her problems on herself. I don’t think she’ll wake up until she can’t get any more work.
+1 to everyone.
LL has gone from co-starring with Meryl Streep and Jane Fonda, to working with porn stars on microbudget, kickstarted funded indy films. She’s been getting her wake up calls for years, but she refuses change.
I totally agree about the enabling.
“…I sold my place in NY…” Uhmmm wasn’t she renting? How many episodes of the Oprah show were dedicated to her DEMANING the rent money from Harpo?
Thats what I thought. Girl, you’ve never owned in your life!
^^^^What place did she have to sell in NY? I stopped reading after that. Crack lies.
Maybe she sold Dina’s house out from under her.
I guess they didn’t think it was important enough to bother ironing her clothes for that cover shoot. I kind of think they were right.
“Hopefully be married and have children” That is a scary thought, Lindsay as someone’s mother and Dina being the show business grandmother from hell. That child would have no chance
Agreed, she would be a terrible, absent mother. Some people are too self-involved too become parents. Yes, there are rare, RARE exceptions that change when they become mothers. But the sad fact is, most people that were self-centered before they have a child, will be afterwards. I have relatives that are super self-involved and had an ‘accident’ child and that poor boy is given so little attention. He’s 8 now and he’s the saddest child you will ever meet. I’ve rarely heard him laugh. That’s what being ignored and treated as a burden for most of your life will do to you. 🙁 breaks my heart
I thought that was such a strange response. I thought like that in Middle School, “when I’m 29 I’ll already be married with two kids…”
She’s not in a serious relationship, is she? Is she looking to marry and procreate with someone specific?
I love how Lindsay says that she sold her apartment in NY and moved to London. She didn’t own that apartment in NYC, Oprah rented it for her, and it took over a month for them to find a building that would allow her to move in. She is delusional.
Oh NOOOO……not Toby Zeigler! I can’t bear to think of Toby being subjected to such indignity. On the other hand, no one should expect ‘LL to know her lines. Wonder why she was hired at all; can anyone explain that?
Lohan draws attention even as a “train wreck.” Like someone wrote farther up, people are buying the tickets, and hoping to see her screw ups.
So, in one word, exposure.
ROL had an article that stayed the theater was only half filled. If true then they aren’t even buying tickets to see a freak show.
I was with Tina Fey [‘Mean Girls’ writer] the other day and I said we should do another “Mean Girls”, like an older version where they’re all housewives and they’re all cheating. That would be really funny. I’ll harass Tina to write it.’
Yes, I’m sure Tina will get right on it.o_0
Tina is probably on that right as we speak
Cute that she says harass instead of stalk.
My favorite- “I sold my place in New York.” More like, “The man, who has been bank rolling me that last few years, was given an ultimatum by his wife so I had to abandon the apartment he was keeping in. No worries though because I went to Craigslist UK and found a new daddy in London.”
Oooof course she did.
That time out cover is awful. No one wants to see her cleveage. She’s not even 30. Where’s Dina?! Haven’t heard from her in forever!
Forget the part where LL is a drug addict….
Forget the part where LL is a known thief…
Forget the part where LL is a patholigical liar…
THE GIRL CANNOT ACT HER WAY OUT OF A PAPER BAG!!!!!!!!!!
Even in Mean Girls…she was flat…She was the worst part of that movie!!!!!!
I know! I watched a bit of I Know Who Killed Me and nearly died of embarrassment for her. I kept thinking how crule it was that someone told her she could act because clearly they were just punking her.
I always laugh at comeback. I thought to come back, you actually had to have been there.
Exactly! I never thought she was a good actress, and couldn’t figure out why people kept saying “she has talent” and I kept wondering what kind of talent?? Why anyone hires her is still a mystery, other than the freak factor.
If she had just been sent to prison and done some time and cleaned her sh*t up maybe she would have had a real chance for a come back. All the whining and lying and third, fourth, fifth chances are why killed her career.
(Apart from her killing her steer of course)
Line perturbed me for a minute.
This. The slaps on the wrist and basically telling her to go on her way and behave have done nothing to help her. Locked up and scared straight is what she needed.
that interview reads like one of her many post-rehab. like, VERBATIM, almost.
“I’ve done things, but people grow up and they change. I’m willing to work hard to gain back the respect that I once had and have lost.’”
how many times has she said this? she looks terrible, too. as I said the other day, even with all the drug use, she used to still clean up well and still looked quite pretty in mag shoots. not even photoshop can help her now.
With all the drugs she has done I am surprised she still has a memory.
Is that an actual magazine cover? With her name misspelled? I don’t get it.
That’s the first thing I noticed.
And bitch, please. “I was just talking to Tina Fey” — not even Tina will talk to you now. Why are you trying to front?!
Delusional. Sad.
I don’t think Timeout London is that big thing if I am correct is a guide to what’s going on in London (concerts, events) you find in the tube for free.
Yeah they have Time Out mags in many major cities around the world. I sometimes read the one for Beijing where I live right now.
Richard Schiff is one of my favorite actors! Why is he a part of this hot mess? WHY?!
“I was with Tina Fey the other day…” I’m calling bullshit. I may be a Fey fangirl, but yeah right. Tina doesn’t travel a lot, she has two toddlers. Whatever Lindsay. What’s sad is that Tina has defended her talent over and over.
They ran into each other not long ago – Lindsay had a pic on her instagram. Not ‘the other day’ maybe a few weeks ago
I think she was a talented and charismatic kid. She had it in Freaky Friday, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, and The Parent Trap. She kinda oozed adolescent sex appeal and charisma in those first two.
Girl has exactly ONE decent movie to hang her hat on in the last decade…and she was the WORST PART OF IT. Delusions of grandeur.
What happened to Richard Schiff since he’s suffering through this?
I have ranted about this before but I can barely control my anger.
How does this cracked out, bankrupt, repeat offender with ZERO credibility get a visa to not just live but work in the UK? I have 2 Master’s degrees (one from the UK) and PhD offers from 2 of the most prestigious UK universities. Oh, wait. I’m Indian. So, the fees are astronomically high for someone like me and there are NO more scholarships because they want to reduce ‘net immigration’.
Also, my fiance is English but because I’m Non-EU, he has to demonstrate he’s got an insane amount of cash in his bank account for us to settle in the UK as a married couple. My qualifications, my savings and my credentials don’t count AT ALL in this process. We are forced to stay in two different countries and battle with this insane immigration process that works on the assumption of ‘Guilty until proven innocent’.
UK’s government and home office is happy to react to dog whistle politics of ‘Immigrants go home’ and ‘Immigrants scrounge off the welfare system’. We are all tarred with the same brush.
So, with this ‘tough stance’ on immigration, how does someone like this cracked out, breathing cautionary tale get to live in the UK?
F&%$ this.
Wow that’s total bullsht.
Wow, I’m sorry you’re going through that!
Holy sh!t, this is terrible.
I was helping a combogian student the other day, to get all the stuff for her phd in order to allow her to get the VISA for the next three years and it was just insane.
My best wishes for you.
I’m sorry you’re having trouble getting into study, but like you say, all are getting tarred with the same brush.
Britain has a reputation for being very soft, compared to the US, and Australia for getting work and study visas. Unfortunately, because the system has been abused by international students getting degrees, arranged marriages [just to get into UK] and then just disappearing without finishing the course, it has led to strong camp – down.
The system is damned for trying and damned for not, and as a result we are losing good researchers, scientists etc.
And, yes international students pay a fortune, but so do UK students. The difference is, government subsidises UK students, international students don’t get the subsidy. Perhaps, when it comes to international scholarships, perhaps the Indian government could offer a scholarship scheme?
Have you ever considered emigrating to New Zealand? They are expecting a shortage of highly skilled people over the the next few years and are always looking for qualified people. I’ve looked into it myself and would take New Zealand over England in a heartbeat, cost of living be darned.
I know exactly how you feel. My boyfriend is British and I’ve been turned down for visas, which makes it all even harder. They have to crack down on immigration because (according to Daily Mail pearl-clutchers) people are sneaking in from all over Europe all the time, so in order to crack down on this, politicians whoring for votes, make it even harder for honest people who want to join their partners and legitimately contribute to society. It makes me so angry this trick just stumbles up to the front of the line and she’s in. Seriously, it feels so unfair.
I still like the theory someone here had last Lindsay post that her sugar daddy must have invested in this show, because there’s no reason anyone else would hire her for something like this. I just feel bad for the other people who have to work with her.
LOL at “I sold my place in New York”, and she is looking pretty terrible.
I agree with that theory. Given Blohan’s history, would any serious theater investor want to sink his or her money into something starring Lindsay Lohan? It’s way too risky.
One of her Saudi or other Middle Eastern oil barons “friends” is financing this with the condition that she’s in it. Even if they lose millions, that kind of money is nothing to them.
In the words of Michael Bluth, “Her?” Meh, maybe. I mean I feel like if you were a sugar daddy, Lindsay Lohan would be the last person you would pay to “be around”.
I actually feel really bad for her. She’s not even 30 and I feel like she’s doomed for life. Nobody can take her seriously for anything now. For a job, a romantic relationship, anything. She upsets me because she’s been given SO many opportunities to actually get it together and she keeps blowing it up, but still, I can’t help but too see an incredibly frail and troubled person when I see her. Sigh.
Frail?Please there is nothing frail about this trick.Her idol Marilyn Monroe was frail.Not Lindsay.
Maybe the word has some different connotation in English, but I think if Lindsay had any shred of will power in her, she wouldn’t be the mess she is right now. I’m using “frail” as in lacking of will power and self respect. Which Lindsay deffo is.
I agree with you Josefa, I pity her. Yes, she’s had all the chances in the world, but she’s obviously too messed up to even be capable of taking advantage of any of them. She’s just circling the drain. She puts on a happy face in public but I bet she cries herself to sleep every night. I’ve known people like that before, who act happy and tell so many lies and live in a delusion, but when they’re alone and there’s no one to lie to, you know they are deeply, deeply depressed.
I think she has plenty of will power. When she really wants to do something, she does it. Her problem is that she honestly doesn’t want to live sober (although I think she has slowed down a bit since her last rehab sentence, so she’s looking better than before). She uses all the rehab jargon but her actions show she’s not serious about sobriety.
She likes the money and fame but she lost interest in real acting by her late teens and by 18 showed herself to be lazy and irresponsible on jobs that paid her huge bucks, pretty much guaranteeing that the huge bucks would start drying up since her acting was mediocre in general. Producers put up with highly skilled difficult people because they earn their keep. But Lindsay quickly reached the point where she was costing them too much in production delays.
She has never done anything that real actors do to improve and maintain their skills. I can understand her lack of interest- she was dragged into modeling and acting by Dina when she was a tiny tot, and being on set and getting positive attention must have been a welcome respite from her awful home life. But she has no interest in learning how to do something else that would allow her to be truly self-supporting in a low-key but fulfilling lifestyle. She doesn’t seem truly happy to me. She just lives from moment to moment, vaguely knowing she needs money and drifting into ways to get a lot at once for not doing much. Doesn’t even have a goldfish at home to greet her.
I predict that this will be her best performance of the play, and it’s all downhill from here. And I’m being generous, assuming she even shows up for another show at all. She does the very least she “has” to, to get through whatever her latest project is, just the barest minimal effort, and only at the very beginning. Her loss of interest coincides with the first paycheck. Her heart is not in it, and hasn’t been for a very long time. She’s in love with the lifestyle, not the work that goes into it.
This is just sad and pathetic at this point.
If people were laughing at her, I could totally see her not showing up in the future.
I didn’t read the audience was laughing at her; they just nodded off. She’s not exactly an electrifying presence that she could screw up and people would still be happy to have seen her. Richard Burton could have read the phone book on stage and I’d never enthralled.
I got the laughing thing from the article above, but I didn’t read the articles it linked to. Kaiser wrote, “Apparently, Lindsay kept forgetting her lines. To the point where even when she was trying to be serious and dramatic, the audience laughed at her.”
See how frail you think she is when she mows you down because you have the bad fortune to be walking or driving at the same time and same place in which she is behind the wheel.
Might want to work on your ability to duck flying objects as well.
Hope Strawberry Snortcake’s understudy is ready to go on. LIElo is going to be a no show on the real opening night.
How did you land the role exactly? Um let’s see I walked into a room closed the door, got down on my knees and…….you know.
I hope she will gets better. Baby steps. At least she started to work again. It’s hard to rebuild something from ashes but I’d give her another try.
Actually, there were a lot of people on Twitter saying she did ok, forgetting lines or not, so you’re not reporting the whole story. And evidently one of her co-stars forgot his lines more than she did. So there’s that. It’s my understanding that the official opening night isn’t until next week, October 2nd, which is when the press can review. So we can’t really say she sucked or not until then. I guess these initial shows are almost like dress rehearsals. Anyway, regardless of whether she’s any good at this or not, I do think it shows some courage on her part. Performing in front of an audience, knowing a lot of people think you are a joke, takes some courage.
Her co-star had many, many more lines than Lohan did. She had only a few.
Did Richard forget his lines, or did he have a hard time covering for her dropped lines? Actors can’t perform 3 person plays on their own, it is a team effort. If one person fails in their responsibility, it can easily mess everyone else up.
Also, if you are selling tickets, it isn’t a dress rehearsal.
She in no way thinks she’s a joke. In her mind, she is a star.
Previews are not like dress rehearsals. Previews are meant to be done like its opening night. Always professional. Previews give the directors a chance to see whats working and whats not to “tweak” the show slightly.
LL looks at least a decade older than her chronological age in the “Time Out” cover.
@Kaiser, I think NYMag has a really interesting and rather positive take on Linds’ debut. Did you see this? http://www.vulture.com/2014/09/on-the-scene-lindsay-lohan-stage-debut-speed-the-plow.html
It doesn’t seem that positive, though.
“It was a crowd that was predisposed to praise.”
“But the second act, dominated by a complicated speech by Karen, was an undeniable mess. Lohan forgot a line, and then — less forgivably — broke character briefly to laugh when the line was whispered from the wings. By the end of her monologue she had been fed four lines, and a fifth prompt arrived before the act’s close. It happened so frequently that it felt like the person calling out the script from behind the scenes had become another character in the play.”
“The audience was amused, and the second act, which is so crucial to the plot, became farcical. We laughed at Schiff’s one-liners, but also at what were supposed to be heartfelt feelings from Lohan, delivered in a triumphant rush when she remembered them. We were watching the actress, not the character. When she gave the line “I know what it is to be bad — I’ve been bad,” she was rewarded with a big, knowing laugh that definitely wasn’t meant for Karen.”
She’s playing at being an actress, not playing the character.
Ha! Very true, OhMyMy!
Of course she’ll never get an Oscar, but perhaps another Golden Raspberry?
She got two in 2007 tying with herself for worst actress.
Lindsay wants to be married and have kids in five years????? I HIGHLY HIGHLY doubt she will even be alive in 5 years. ( She will be 33 by then).
I hate to say it but she will eventually be dead.
It’s VERY obvious that she is still drinking and doing drugs.
FWIW, I remember catching “Prairie Home Companion” on cable, which was the first time I’d ever seen her in performance. And I was impressed: she held her own with Streep and Tomlin, etc. She did okay.
She was with Tina Fey the other day? Whatever you say Lindsay. Snort…
Sad, but not unexpected. She has had so much trouble remembering lines just for tiny roles on tv. I think the years of drunken drugging have done too much damage, plus she’s just lazy. She should have spent the months before the first rehearsal working with an acting coach and learning her lines, then at rehearsals she could have focused on learning how to deliver the lines the way the director wanted. Instead she partied.
Not long ago in an interview or whatever, she said she was having trouble learning her lines for the second act where she had a lot of lines to do solo. And that was after being in rehearsal for a while. They knew what was coming. They used her for publicity, unless rumors are true that a rich guy bought her the role. In either case, she’s just being used again for reasons that have nothing to do with her ability to actually act.
This is supposed to be a fairly easy role to learn, since most of the lines are very short and a big chunk is just the character reading out of a book or script- if people thought she was hiding a script in a book, maybe they didn’t realize that. But apparently she can’t read books on stage any better than she can read teleprompters on live tv. She has said many times that she really loves being on a set, but she’s never shown any real interest in working to develop acting skills for adult roles. She did fine as a kid (although quite replaceable) because not much is expected and she was matched closely enough to the roles (as kids are) that she could manage. She doesn’t have the skills to play someone else.
Any bets on the excuse she will have to cut out in favor of the understudy? She probably hasn’t finished her community service sentence yet, that would work. Or Dina might be planning to get sick.
She had a lot of promise as a young girl, there was a spark that made her the rising star she was at one point – there was potential. Its very sad that she’s now become the poster child for what early fame, drugs, alcohol and pushy stage/famewhore parents do to people.
I’m not condoning her behaviour as it’s appalling but putting someone who’s frankly a train wreck on stage is a disaster waiting to happen – if it goes badly for her and she ends up being laughed/booed off stage then who knows what she will do.
That second pic is frightening. It always amazes me how long some of these celebs can go on in this cycle of abuse. How does her family keep supporting her?
It’s truly sad that some other hardworking actress didn’t get this part. I’m with the “sugardaddy” theory.
Lindsey always talks the talk, but rarely really walks the walk. Does she know what hard work really means? Ug, it’s just barely worth talking about anymore.
Oh, come on. Emma Stone? Puhlease. Hello, Lindsay MADE Mean Girls. Yeah she’s Lindsay Lohan, but still. It would not be the same. I could totally see her doing it and doing it well. Someone has to at least agree with me on that.
Mean Girls was a great movie because Tina Fey wrote it, not because Lindsay Lohan starred in it.
