Chuckle. I think the Huffington Post has declared war on Lindsay Lohan. HuffPo has a big story on Lindsay’s epic day of crack-tweeting about her extraordinary ordeal trying to come home after spending two weeks sunning herself in St. Barth, and you know, crying for the cameras and posing in her bathing suit and stuff. Anyway, Lindsay had drama on a commercial US Airways flight that got delayed, after which Lindsay and her friends/enablers rented a car from Hertz, and then she was bored. That’s the story. But with Lindsay, you know it was epic. It involved some spectacular crack tweets along the lines of “Us Airways – don’t fly them” and “So then, airline “SAYS” the flight was delayed, and IT WASN’T-so we of course, what happens next? We miss the flight last night-LAST 1!!!!” and of course “What happens next….? Me, my sis&fam friend refuse2stay in Charlotte, North Carolina & rent a car!” Oh, crackhead:
After a busy holiday weekend of photographing herself in a bikini and partying with Moammar Gaddafi’s violent son in St. Barts, Lindsay Lohan is back in New York. The trip home wasn’t easy on her.
A private jet delivered Lindsay to a private yacht last week, so how did she end up braving flight delays, security checkpoints and crowded terminals with the masses?
Last Thursday Lindsay flew to St. Barts in luxury with now-former best friend mop-haired stylist Patrick Aufdenkamp and another friend, Jessica Schul. The trio rang in the New Year together, but Lindsay’s resolution for a drama-free 2010 fell through before the trip was over. Patrick allegedly betrayed Lindsay by stealing her sketches for her upcoming 6126 line. He denied the charges, claiming he is “way too creative of an individual” to do something so foolish. “Everyone will know the truth soon enough,” he tweeted.
Anyway, the former BFFs made their way back to the US separately and while Patrick landed in JFK to cheers of “Team Patrick!,” Lindsay’s trip didn’t go so smoothly.
“Us Airways – don’t fly them,” she warned Tuesday afternoon before missing her connecting flight from Charlotte to New York, a move for which she would be punished with ten hours in the passenger seat of a Hertz rental car with nothing but Sirius radio to entertain her. Scroll down for her complete travel diary.

To be fair to Lindsay (for some reason), I think I would be genuinely frustrated if my flight got delayed and I missed my connecting. I would be pissy and I would throw a tantrum. I guess it’s funnier when Lindsay does it on Twitter, though. Because she’s always the center of the drama tornado. I guess the bigger story (the one that HuffPo is emphasizing) is that Lindsay was flying commercial, rather than some private jet. Once again, to be fair to Lindsay, she never was some wealthy actress going everywhere on private jets. I’m sure she’s gone private a few times, but she seems like she mostly flies commercial. Sigh… I hate defending Lindsay. But I didn’t find this story so ridiculous.

In that B&W pic, is it Lindsay Lohan or Bret Michaels circa 1989?
I can’t stand Lilo – but I do understand the frustration of missing a flight.
Only mine was actually missed instead of being “missed.” XD My family and I were traveling to the west coast (San Francisco and Las Vegas) for a nice break before I headed off to my first year of college. We had a flight from my home city to DC, and then we were to hop on a connecting flight from DC to San Francisco.
Our flight to DC was to leave at 7:00 AM or so. It was late by over an hour thanks to mechanical issues. By the time we got to DC, we missed our flight and we had to get on a waitlist for the next connecting flight to San Francisco. :/
Fortunately, we got on an early afternoon flight, but I was incredibly anxious, excited, etc (and tired from getting up so early), and I was ready to throw a fit at the mere idea of staying at a hotel in DC overnight if we got backlisted to a flight scheduled to leave the following morning.
So I get that drama – but the avis thing is just dumb. She needs to suck it up and deal, as usual.
Awww. she missed a flight!
Gee honey, welcome to the REAL world where “regular” folk have to travel commercial and have these problems ALL the time.
Sure things like this are frustrating, but deal with it, like the rest of us mere mortals do. Bitch is lucky to have had a nice, sunny vacation, while 80% of us have been freezing our butts off lately.
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with being pissed about missing or delayed flights. You bitch to your friends or family. Since Lindsay doesn’t appear to have friends and her family made her the mess she is today, Lindsay bitches to the world via Twitter. That’s the difference.
Crack tweets? Lindsay’s probably never smoked crack. Yes, she’s done cocaine but in its crack form? Show us evidence. Her friends say the problem now is prescription drug abuse mixed with alcohol. Anyway, what’s the point of this? On twitter people tweet all sorts of nonsense, facebook’s “wall” as well. This is on par for what’s on twitter and maybe it’s just Lindsay’s way of keeping her followers abreast of where she is and her frustrations in getting home.
THAT’S TOTALLY FALSE , IF YOU SEARCH IN THE WEB , THE OTHER PHOTOS OF THIS , YOU CAN SEE CLEARLY THAT IN THE SAME PLACE , HER SISTER ALI WAS CRYING TOO BY PHONE , SO THAT MUST BE A REALLY SAD NEWS OR SOEMTHING , NOT THIS STUPID STORY THAT WAS TOLD IN THIS WEBSITE. if i’m not wrong she was criying for the news of the death of tila tequila’s girlfriend that was her firend too.
gosh , I don’t know how can you believe to this stupid stories that some people invent triying to make money about some celebrity that has done NOTHING.
Poor thing… surrounded by pillows and cushions, working on her laptop. Unlike most of us mortals in economy class who are cramped in our seat, she seems to be flying first class in the picture, so she should STFU
Excuse my English, not my mother tongue…
Did anyone see Lindsay’s other tweets earlier today before she removed them to Sam Ronson???
I didn’t copy them so this is just the gist;
They were stating that she’d been lied to as she was heading to see sam, who apparently told Lindsay she was alone, only with her step bro but Lindsay tweeted she was a liar as she was with 2 girls!
She also tweeted why had she focused all her energy on the people she loved in her recent past rather than her career….
(I think the career drop off was the result of too many illegal & legal sunstances rather than relationships – they were a by product of the drugs etc)
Completely f@cked up…this new drug and drama free image is def her attempt to make out she’s fine, but after reading these tweets to Sam Roson, I think the drama and drug/alcohol rantings are far from over
Babouleine, your English is better than a lot of other people on this site who are actually native speakers.
Don’t sweat it.
so…she was flown on a private jet to a private yacht? believing MORE AND MORE that she IS in fact acting as a “companion” to some ultra-rich arab/russian/euro guy.
Dolkite – thanks for that! I sprayed my keyboard with coffee. I would say it looked like Bret Michaels if I ever thought he used a computer (I think that’s a laptop in the forefront), but I kinda doubt he did circa 1989. : )
When we were in Savannah, Georgia, our flight was delayed 5 times, from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m. We missed two connecting flights and landed back in Chicago at midnight instead of 6:30.
Cool story, bro, I know, but the point is that shit happens, the airlines can’t help it, and as much as it sucks that you’re sitting in an airport for hours, eventually you will get home. Acting entitled and bitchy doesn’t help the situation.
Uh EndimioN, no one said the crying photos were of her crying over a missed flight, you must not frequent this site, because we saw the crying photos on here this week already. This story is about her TWEETING about her missed flight. The picture just happens to be shown again, so calm down.
Drama Queen. When you deal with airports that handles a multitude of aircrafts traveling to various destinations and varying weather – you expect delays of some sort. Pretty standard. Even Private jets aren’t immune to cancellations or delays due to weather. Grow up, Lindsey.
So much for 2010 being a drama free year for Lindsay. It’ll be interesting to see what happens to her now that more of her ‘friends’ are leaving her.
This thing happens every single day to normal people. It’s certainly happened to me. Also, as a North Carolinian, I’m offended that she thinks she’s too good to spend one night in my state–on second thought, good riddance, Crackie!
This girl is a HOT MESS. She strutted around town like the TRASH that she is, civilized tourists and locals (AND EVEN THE THRONGS OF HOOKERS) know that bikinis are reseved for the yachts and the beach and all activities in town require shirts and shoes. Also, her hair LOOKED WORSE THAN PARIS HILTON’S FRAGGLE LOCKS.
I’m offended by the NC comments as well and I don’t even live there. I do have family there and want to move there eventually, so eff you Lindsay!
And big surprise – a US Airways flight was late. As someone who mostly travels on US Airways, that’s the norm. You should always try to space your connecting flights so you’re not scrambling through the airport if something unexpected happens but you know what? Shit happens and flights are delayed all the time. Deal with it you privileged twat. As if it was so much better driving to NY than waiting for another flight. The drive through VA alone from NC to NY is a killer.
Jeez I wish I would have encountered her on the highway driving through PA.
Her tweets sound so trivial in light of the fact that her friend just died. I bet she was a nightmare for the USairways staff.
Oh yeah, and about her comment about NC- They have a rather large film communtiy there, if I am not mistaken and there are many movies filmed there. Do not know why she is acting so superior to that state. After all it should be NC that is disgusted to have this piece of trash in their area.
She is probably just jealous because she knows she will more than likely never be filming a movie there or any place else again.
Erin, Lindsay is not a “normal” person. None of the people featured on Celebitchy are “normal”, at least normal defined as “nonpublic” people. Lindsay at least has earned her title as a public person in that she is a bonafide actress and not a “reality” star that requires no skills (like those scary people in Jersey Shore, Paris Hilton, Kardashians, Gosselins, etc.). With her profession, as in sports and other entertainment, comes very high earnings and the “entitlement” is something that is within our culture and not something that only a Lindsay Lohan displays. Joan Rivers had a fit about problems on a plane recently. “Celebrity” after celebrity have. And these people when they work do work hard. Movie hours are long with many takes, not all of their lives are glam filled. Entitlement is part of celebrity culture and Lindsay is a biproduct of what the society has produced.
I sincerely hope to god that I am never on a flight with her, ever. Because I will not be responsible for whatever mayhem I might perpetrate on her stupid head.
what makes this ridiculous to me:
1. she and her posse think they’re above staying in NC and using a rental car for a night. we’ve all been there, honey.
2. don’t fly USAir… yeah, welcome to at least five years ago. that airline has sucked for years, and this comes from someone born and raised in their former hub city, so i used to fly them all the time. you’re not telling us anything new, linds.
3. it sounds like she’s saying she heard her flight was delayed, so she showed up late, but it wasn’t actually delayed so she missed it. as though it can’t be her own fault that she wasn’t there when the flight was scheduled for take off. she should have been there early enough that this wouldn’t have affected her travel, rather than hear the flight will be delayed and decide to spend an extra hour lounging in the sun or drinking in an airport bar.
I live in Charlotte. I’m glad she didn’t want to stay here. We don’t want her here!
Lol I thought you were making up fake examples of what she might tweet in this situation, and I was laughing at how astute you were, but my god – those are really things she wrote! lol even funnier
I, too, live in Charlotte and have no interest in seeing Lindsay dirty up our streets, but for the record there’s a brand new Ritz Carlton not even 15 mins from the airport. The staff is likely breathing a sigh of relief – let Hertz deal with crazy.
I feel really bad for saying this, but I actually like the black and white pic. Although in my defense, I’m a sucker for fedoras!
*sets up Celebitchy intervention for Emily* ; )
How horrible that she has to fly commercial with us peons!
A couple years ago, my flight was delayed and I missed my connection. It was around the Holidays, so all the “complimentary” hotels were taken. Long story short, I had to spend the night at O’Hare. The entire night. In the terminal. My inlaws even made Thanksgiving dinner on the presumption that I’d be in Colorado for dinner.
I only tore into them when they wanted to charge me $50 to change my outgoing flight to a later date.
she’s from Long Island. and she dares to diss Charlotte?!? LMAO!!!! this lunatic is too full of herself.
As loathe as I am to say anything remotely kind about LL, the black & white pic is really quite lovely…
Anyhoo… LL has LONG since ceased to be a bonafied actress. Her profession, such as it is in the here & now, can easily be defined as “party girl attention w@ore”. She hasn’t produced (as in “contributed to society in any shape or fashion”) since Mean Girls & that was, what, at least 5 years ago?
Yeah, she may once have actually brought in high earnings & possibly been “entitled” special treatment, but these days (& the last few years) all she has left of that is her sence of entitlement.
Blame society all you want, but girlfriend screwed up her shit all on her own.
She has had more chances than any “normal” person to get her head on straight & flat out refuses to take head. OF COURSE her parents were a huge contributing factor, but there comes a time when every person, “entitled” or not, to pull up your big girl panties (so to speak) & be responsible for your own life
I understand the frustration of missing a flight, but the tendency for every idiot to Tweet, in detail, is unhinged.
Letting her Twitter is like giving a child finger paint and white paper.
D’oh… *heed
Let’s face it she didn’t want to stay in Charlotte because no one here cares.
grew up on LI and live in Charlotte.
