Generally, I’m half-joking when I talk about how Lindsay Lohan is a cracked-out stalker. It’s not that I don’t believe Lindsay is cracked out (I do) or that she’s got that crazed, psychotic stalker instinct (I do), it’s just that, in general, Lindsay only seems to be hurting herself. It’s a downward spiral of self-destruction, and very few people are on that rollercoaster. The only one who seems to stick with the wreck known as La Lohan is Samantha Ronson. It would be easy enough to dismiss Samantha as Lindsay’s enabler, but I’m starting to think there might be something else going on.
This new feeling comes from this new video at TMZ. The video was shot Saturday night/Sunday morning, at some ungodly hour of 5 a.m. As TMZ puts it, “Samantha Ronson had a delightful surprise waiting for her when she got home at 5 in the morning this weekend — a crying, yelling, accusing Lindsay Lohan and her wasteoid mystery friend. LiLo, doing her best Alex Forrest Saturday night, sat on Sam’s front stoop for two hours until she got home — and when Ronson did, it wasn’t pretty.” The video is scary. Lindsay is barely on camera, but you can hear her voice echoing through Samantha’s little courtyard. Lindsay sounds unhinged, tantrum-y, crazed, racked with sobs and whacked out on something hard. OK! Magazine did a pretty good transcript of the converstion:
One of the toughest parts about fame/infamy? Having the paparazzi around as witnesses to film you waiting on your girlfriend Samantha Ronson’s stoop for two hours and the subsequent tearful tantrum that follows at 5 a.m. Yes, Lindsay Lohan, we’re looking at you. TMZ has posted a video with audio so clear at times it sounds like LiLo was wearing a mic as she tearfully demands of Sam, “Where were you?!?” as she arrives home in the wee hours over the weekend. For her part, the DJ is confused as to who the mystery girl hanging out on her doorstep with Lindsay is. Some interesting exchanges follow:
Lindsay: Samantha where were you? You lost it, what’s wrong with you? (Sam walks to her door, as Lindsay squeals to the other girl) Stop! Stop!
Sam: Who is this person?
Lindsay: (clearly confused crying) I’m your girlfriend!
Sam: No, who’s this other person here?
Lindsay: You know her…
Sam: Then why were you yelling at her to stop?
Lindsay: Because she was trying to touch me[?]. Where were you?!?
Sam: This one has to go.
Lindsay: Don’t talk to my friend like that, Samantha (still crying).
Sam: She’s on my property, I don’t know her, I want her out. it’s that simple.
(some unintelligible talking)
Lindsay: Where were you? Where were you? Where were you? Where were you? Where were you?
Sam: I was with my sister.
Lindsay: You’re lying!
Sam: Yeah, I’m lying.
The random girl then leaves, as Samantha suggests she call a cab. The couple finally go into the house, as Lindsay says something about a phone that’s mostly unintelligible, as she walks in and slams the door.

At one point, I heard Sam say something about Lindsay being “disrespectful”. Because when it’s 5 a.m. and you come home to find a cracked out Lohan stalker on your front stoop, what’s called for is a lesson about being respectful? Sam’s voice just sounds tired to me. Like Lindsay whole energy is just so f-cking exhausting, which I totally understand. But now I’ve started to wonder something… does Sam just let Lindsay come around because Sam just wants her to be safe at this point? It’s not even like they’re dating – the voice Sam seems to be using is of the responsible adult, the parent. It’s like Sam knows Lindsay’s in a rough state, so she’s just trying to make sure Lindsay’s not sleeping on the street.

Of course Samantha Ronson sounds exhausted…I’m exhausted just reading these endless stories about the never-ending downward spiral of Lindsay Lohan. She needs to fix her life before it ends in a permanently tragic way, and we all need to get lives and stop reading/writing about these two! Enough already–the constant drama inspires indifference.
sad, this chick needs some serious help.
It blows me away that her family is nowhere around her. I mean, c’mon, even with their mentality, wouldn’t they want her cleaned up so she can continue to bring in money? She was raised Catholic. Where’s her priest? Someone! Step in, quick.
SamRo better get a restraining order STAT. Blohan was scary in that TMZ video.
The Lohans are “Catholic” in name only si seriously doubt they belong to a parish.
Does LL even have a place to live at this point? I get what you’re saying Kaiser. I mean, what if Sam had refused to let LL in? Who knows how psycho she would have gone & how much damage to herself (& possibly others) she would have done?
First off: (sorry for yelling) WHERE IS THIS WOMAN’S MOTHER? A parent, upon seeing the video and hearing about this whole sordid mess taking place, should be jumping in and getting her daughter some help before she ends up dead, simple as that. Dina Lohan is a reprehensible creature if she thinks that this is normal and rational behavior that her daughter is exhibiting. Screw that she is an adult and not a minor, when your child is obviously in need of help, you do not turn a blind eye and let matters handle themselves.
Second, Samantha needs to do what she did a few months ago and leave this situation and maybe get herself some help regarding codependant relationships. She seems to be a fairly sensible woman and I think finds herself in a terrible situation not really knowing what to do. The way Lindsey is acting, she may freak out and hurt herself or the both of them, worse case scenario. Why let this thing get anymore out of hand than it is?
I agree, Samantha sounded like a parent — sober, self possessed and calm. Lindsey was like a weepy four-year-old. This is sad. Granted, actresses like drama, but this is so over the top. Somehow you think, this is not going to end well.
Looks like the papparazzi wound up taking care of Lindsey’s friend.
Pobre Linsay,se ha enamorado profundamente de Sam,por cierto , una persona estupenda y muy consciente de lo que le está pasando a Linsay,tiene un comportamiento impecable
Linsay no es lesbiana y no puede entender que la bisexualidad existe ,el amor es imprebisible , no se escoge de quien te enamoras,pasa y ya está
Linsay , aceptelo,esta vez ha sido de sexo femenino(Sam, merece la pena)
I think it is a mistake to assume Sam is an innocent party in all this. That she doesn’t do drugs or play games of her own, when there’s no camera or recorder around. No way.
Sam appears to be an adult human being with a work ethic and a family that cares about her. Lindsay not so much. I think Sam is trying very hard to distance herself without cutting Lindsay off so coldly that she harms herself.
This video is disturbing on so many levels; and I share the opinion that Lindsay’s parents are reprehensible for not getting her some help when she is obviously unstable (to say the least). I’m really scared for this girl now; I can easily see her killing herself and Sam. This CANNOT end well.
I see what you’re saying cos– and not to say that partying and doing drugs is ever responsible, but Sam seems to know her limits, or at least knows when it’s time to work.
LiLo just can’t seem to hang. I think the difference is what RobN said, Sam has a family who cares, and was raised in, what seems, a typically normal fashion, so she at least has a basis for what normal should be. Lindsay on the other hand, seems to have no foundation, so when she alters her state of mind, she basically falls off the deep end.
They were a bad mix from the start because of this. Being unable to have perspective is what feeds the craziness of addiction, and Lindsay clearly has zero perspective on how things *should* be. She needs some very serious counseling before it’s too late.
Thanks Bob, you are right. And yet she lets her in her house again. If it works LL won’t stop. I’m sure it must be hard for her to say no.
I really think that these two women have hit the edge. Samantha being the only one holding out a rope for Lindsay. I too have questioned where and if Lindsay has a current residence aside from Samantha’s house. It’s really sad that Lindsay has lost control of her emotions and as a result her mental health has suffered with each day. Someone really needs to help her, help both of them. I don’t doubt that they both have geniune love and concern for each other. It’s just a bad scene. And the constant media attention at Samantha’s house must be extremely stressful. I hope they pull it together, but it’s best if they do it apart from one another. It’s very possible that there are so many other senerios going on behind closed doors. It’s sad to think that a year ago they seemed to be doing fine, both smiling and having a good time. And currently a sad mess.
time for a restraining order.
this makes me so sad – i SO want them to work out!
I don’t know if any of you are into astrology, but I found this article by Mat Gleason at Keen.com about Lindsay Lohan’s natal chart and the challenges she faces with drug abuse. The article basically says that according to the aspects in her chart, if she doesn’t make major changes related to her drug use patterns in the next year and a half or so, then she could POSSIBLY see an early end:
“If she follows the patterns of excessive abandonment of reality in the form of drug and alcohol abuse, the planetary alignments indicate that the fate of Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Jean-Michel Basquiat and Kurt Cobain await her: death from excess by age 27. The choices are all hers, the patterns are all in the stars and the consequences remain forever in the hands of fate”.
Here is the link if anyone is interested in reading the entire article:

I just thought that if there is validity to this, for those that follow astrology, then the best any human being can do is hope her family or someone who cares anything for this young woman will try to do something to help her. Her parents need to pull a Britney and get legal guardianship of her and pull a last ditch effort to get her into treatment! Instead, her f*cking father is getting his picture taken with Jon Gosselin instead of getting his daughter, who he supposedly loves, help.
I can’t in good conscious make fun of Lindsay Lohan. She needs help and I don’t care what anyone says, it is always tragic to see anyone die from tragic circumstances like Anna Nicole Smith and her son. You would have to be inhuman not to feel SOME compassion.
I APOLOGIZE FOR GETTING ON MY SOAP BOX, but she is part of our pop culture whether we like it or not, but if your reading this now, you must have some interest. I guess it is sad that we as a society get a perverse thrill out of watching a human train wreck.
They both LOVE the attention and it’s quite obvious.
I don’t think Samantha enjoys the attention. There is a pause in the vid, Samantha just standing there for a few seconds between her “who is this other person” and her command that the other person had to go. it’s as if she was thinking “oh damn, not again” and literally flipping her mindset into that of in-charge parental figure.
And then came her command: “Ok, this one has to go. She’s on my property and I don’t know her. I want her gone.”
(another brief pause)
“It’s that simple.”
I think Samantha just wants SOMEONE to keep Lindsay safe and poor Samantha’s the only one who’s stepped up to the plate. She sounds so tired. So sick of it. But if she doesn’t care for Lindsay, who will?
I agree with everyone who said that this was pretty disturbing. It’s one thing to hear about her doing it, it’s another thing to actually see it.
On a side note, does anyone else think that it was kind of funny how that other girl was presumably waiting with Lindsay for those 2 hours and then Sam shows up and Lindsay gives no real objection to Sam forcing her out? She doesn’t even really say anything when Sam is suggesting that the girl take a cab. Not a “yeah, call a cab” or anything.
I know she’s cracked out and that girl might’ve just been a hanger-on, but it’s still pretty messed up to just peace out on someone like that and not even think twice about it. Especially when it’s 5am and the chick obviously didn’t have a ride.
It’s like Lilo’s concerns purely consist of stalking Sam, getting her picture taken during “work”, stalking Sam, getting cranked, and stalking Sam… Well Sam let her in so she got what she wanted, that other chick can fend for herself I guess.
Somebody tell LL IT DOESN’T MATTER where she was! Go to BED!
Kids, this type of drama – if you’re drinking a lot and this happens, even once? Stop drinking immediately and dry out. It’s oh so unattractive.
Yeah, who was the friend/leech with Lindsay? She obviously didn’t mean much, as Linds didn’t even protest her immediate dismissal.
I wonder what was going on when Sam walked up and wanted to know who the stranger on her doorstep was, and Linds got all defensive with “I’m your girlfriend! She was touching me!” Hmmm . . .

Samantha Ronson has enough money and pull to get Lindsay the help she needs -I wonder what is she waiting for? Lindsay is so young and need help, immediatley. I agree, they both play a big part in this crazy high drama stuff. Samantha does not sound like a caring person at all–she just wants the other girl off her property.She sound like an arrogant, spineless, uncaring girl.
It’s hard to tell, Sam did know the cameras were right there. It could just be she was simply sober enough to realize she was being recorded.
However, if this is really how she is — I like her. “Who is this other person here?” she knows just how to talk to a drunky.
Samantha was born into a rich and well-known family. I think sometimes people forget that, and her habit of dressing like.. well… like my buds at school doesn’t help.
I’m not sure what I expect a rich person to wear, but I sure didn’t expect a rich person to keep cycling through shirts and shoes and pants that after awhile i was able to recognize. She’s not the wear-it-only-once type of girl.
Samantha knows how to play the cameras if she needs to. There’s another old TMZ vid where Sam was asked if Lilo was pregnant, and if she could confirm or deny that.
Her response was just to say “sure as hell ain’t mine. That’d be a little difficult, don’t you think?”
She never confirmed or denied if lilo was pregnant. She gave the semblance of an interview but didn’t actually give any answers.
I think Sam was just trying to diffuse the situation ASAP, and end the reason for the cameras hanging out.
and don’t forget.. as long as lindsay is on Sam’s doorstep, then Lindsay can’t be crashing cars.
I think Kaiser’s right..at this point Sam’s just trying to keep lindsay from hurting herself or someone else. Samantha is not lindsay’s legal guardian and because of that, Sam CAN’T force lindsay into therapy. So stop expecting her to.
She’s doing the best she can. She has no legal power so she can’t make lindsay do anything lindsay doesn’t want to. She’s doing the best she can.
It’s not like anyone else is trying.
Lindsay is young and confused – she is portrayed as a freak, lot of people getting a kick out of her dramatic life – am sad for her, not sure how we can help her?? probably only her legal guardians can do something
