Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan is telling the world that she is not perfect just because she’s a celebrity. She’s taken the words straight out of Jennifer Lopez’s mouth and said, “I’M REAL!” Even though you might not think her boobs are the real thing, the rest of her is pretty darn human. She’s made no secret of things like her battle with alcohol and eating disorders in the past and now talks about her insecurities in the latest issue of Los Angeles Confidential.

When speaking about her stripper role in the movie, I Know Who Killed Me, Lindsay says, “I do a lot of crying in scenes. At one point, [my character] takes a bunch of pills. I didn’t know how to approach the challenge, so I just dove in.”

As for the stripping scenes, she says, “Leading up to it, I was a little shaky, but I had some friends on set and in the end I wasn’t nervous. Once I was in costume and really ‘in it,’ the scene went great. It doesn’t come across as cheesy or gross, like, oh, she just wanted to take her clothes off.”

What is striking about this interview is that she is talking about how hard it was to take drugs and strip for scenes, when recently in real life she’s been admitted into rehab and was pictured half-naked playing with knives (with friend Vanessa Millinno). It seems to be a bit of a contradiction at first, but what it shows is that when the cameras aren’t rolling, it’s the stuff that gets into the tabloids and marrs your reputation as a PERSON, not an ACTRESS, that is more difficult to deal with than what you do on the big screen. It might be easier to do things in real life because no one is watching - or so you think - but it fuels the greasy tabloids into showing the world just how human you really are, before making a joke out of it.

Maybe it’s this knowledge and experience that makes Lindsay want to say, ‘Look at me, yes I’m real, I’m human.’ Perhaps she feels the need to say it with her own words before we look at the incriminating video footage and get sucked into the tabloid’s view that she is just another wild child with a lot of money to burn and boredom to distract… In actual fact, one can’t help but still feel compassion towards Lindsay. “The thing is, people do things and mess up. No one’s perfect. I’m human. The real hard thing about L.A. is that it’s all about one thing. Everyone always wants something. This industry is very lonely; I tend to get very lonely,” she says.

Lindsay Lohan is hitting rock bottom- hard. According to a close friend of the star, Lindsay has been falling apart mentally as she continues her second stint in the Promises clinic in California. According to the source, who blabbed to News of the World, the night Lindsay checked into the facility, she couldn’t stop the waterworks. Aside from crying, she’s been rebelling against the rules and has also been having her no-holds-barred say about people on the outside world – including her boyfriend.

According to The Bosh, in one of her group meetings Lindsay stated that her friend Paris was a coke whore and couldn’t believe how stupid she’d been driving while banned. “Paris thinks she’s above everyone. She’s not,” Lindsay mouthed off. “Paris is a stupid cow and deserves what she gets.” Then Lindsay moved on to verbally assault Nicole Richie, even though the two were recently assumed to be good friends again. Lindsay saw a bulimic woman and compared her to Nicole. “What problems does Nicole have? The girl just needs to eat. Period,” she said.

As for her ‘no show’ boyfriend Calum Best who hasn’t even checked up to see how Lindsay is doing, the source claims Lindsay was shocked when she heard the news that Calum had been caught doing cocaine and having sex with two hookers. “Since then [Lindsay] has begun to self-destruct even more,” the source says. “When she was told what he had done with those prostitutes she broke down and cried, ‘I thought he loved me’.” What’s just made matters worse is the fact that Calum hasn’t made an effort to stand by her. “She thought Calum might become her rock but sadly he has just continued his wild ways without her. That’s torn her apart.”

Lindsay is tired of being seen as a party girl and is holding thumbs that her new film, I Know Who Killed Me, will show everyone that she is serious about her career.

In the thriller, Lindsay plays a character who gets kidnapped and tortured, then becomes a stripper. “At first I was like, ‘I can’t do this, I’m getting my legs cut off. I don’t want to look like that in scenes, I want to look decent.’ But that was just me being young and stupid. And I have my first sex scene in it which I always said I wouldn’t do,” she says. Lindsay then goes on to add, “I wanted to do this movie so people can see that I’m a f**ing actress and I’ve been doing it forever and it’s about time people see that. It felt so good to really act. I just pray people won’t rip me apart for it, and be negative.”

Lindsay not only wants to be taken seriously for her work, but hopes that she will snag an Oscar. “The thing with the press, and why they need to leave me the f**k alone for a little bit, is because I don’t want that distracting from my work. I want to get a nomination. I want to win an Oscar,” she says. “I want to be known for more than, like, going out. For being the ‘party girl’. I hate that. I bust my ass when I’m filming and when I have time off, yeah, I like to go out and dance.”

But actress Jane Fonda, who reprimanded Lindsay for her unprofessional behavior on the set of Georgia Rule, has no regrets about doing so. “I think she’s a fantastic actress and I think she’s just brilliant in this movie. She moved me to pieces. Basically, she’s a nice girl, but she was late a few times and I yelled at her,” Jane told the Chicago Sun-Times. “One day I had had enough and went to her make-up trailer and said, ‘Come on, Lindsay! Everybody’s waiting for you!’ And I just turned on my heel and walked out. Afterwards, they told me she turned to her make-up person and said, ‘Barbarella just yelled at me!’”

A few blogs ago, I mentioned how Lindsay Lohan is perfecting the role of Miss Denial in her life. If you recall, she recently stated that she’s by no means an addict, despite the heated battle she has been having with alcohol. But er, what about her stint in rehab – we all saw her checking in and getting help for her addiction, after all. Well, she also brazenly declared that she only spent time in rehab because it was comfortable and she felt safe there. Err, right. And it seems there’s no stopping Miss Denial on her warpath! Lindsay has now claimed that she’s never passed out from binge-drinking in her life. She obviously doesn’t remember that night when she was found lying unconscious in a hotel, which was the cracking point for her to check into rehab. Or maybe it was the alcohol that contributed to that convenient amnesia? Anyway, in an interview with Allure magazine, Lindsay tries but fails to explain. “I never passed out in my life! I never vomited from having drinks. Like in public. I would never do that. Well - a few times. Well, everyone does in high school. I’m not saying everyone,” she says.
Hmm, maybe she should leave the big confessions to her publicist to take care of in future.

That would be the hit show (and one of my all-time faves) Sex and the City starring Sarah Jessica Parker. Apparently, Lindsay says that the show inspires her dating philosophy (you mean, she actually has a dating philosophy??) Yes, it would seem she does, and hers is that of the ‘casual men need only apply’ philosophy because she admits that she likes having open and fun relationships with men, just like the characters on the show did. Lindsay explains all by saying, “Sex and the City changed everything for me, because those girls would just sleep with so many people.” Riiight. Anyway, Lindsay goes on to say, “If I’m going to give my body to someone, I’d rather them not be with other people. But I want to be able to if I like someone else.” Sheesh, talk about wanting your cake and eating it! When it comes to the question of who Lindsay is currently seeing, the rumors are still going strong, with the lucky contestant changing from day to day! Reports are claiming that Lindsay and Jude Law are together…. then the next minute, she’s supposedly getting close to Robbie Williams… now she’s apparently seeking solace in the arms of DJ Steve Aoki… or could it be American Idol finalist Chris Richardson? Gees, either someone’s caught their head in the rumor mill or Lindsay really is just keen to have fun with loads of different guys.

Lindsay appeared in a recent issue of GQ and she didn’t even have to pitch up for the interview – it was all done electronically via Blackberry! The writer said they decided to do this because this is how kids are communicating these days. But reports have claimed that the interview was a bit banal. It was also a tad confusing- look, there’s only so much you can get out of someone via text messages after all. When asked about playing poker, Lindsay said, or wrote rather, “I just emailed my friend Sara Pantera saying I’m going to start playing poker again! I bought two puppies today!” When the subject of cats came up, Lindsay wrote, “Cats scare me. I just think of bad luck from black ones like I had in ‘Just My Luck!’ I need a boyfriend. Geez.” Err, okay, it seems Lindsay has a very short attention span. The interviewer, Marshall Sella, asked Lindsay what the happiest moment of her life was and all Lindsay wrote back was, “Gotta think sex scene today.” Huh? Marshall tried to continue the conversation by asking, “What do you think about during a sex scene?” but Lindsay never replied. Yep, the beauty of Blackberry. Perhaps in future they should stick to the old-fashioned face-to-face interviews.

Although Lindsay and Britney Spears were good mates for a while, Lindsay has now told the troubled singer to stop all her crazy behavior and scandals. Lately, there have been many stories in the media about Britney’s antics, from the head-shaving incident, to checking in and out of rehab (before heading back), to chasing paparazzi with an umbrella and even her recent suicide attempt. Now Lindsay has let her opinions fly free, by confronting the star head-on. According to the site javno.com, Lindsay had this to say to the pop princess. “Brit, lately I have been hearing so much about you in the media, of your addiction, attempted suicide, calling yourself the antichrist, but is this really true? I hope no. Britney, I have had many ups and downs like you, but to hook a sheet to the hanging lamp and tie it around your neck is absolutely immoral.”
Maybe Lindsay hopes that by talking to Britney and telling it like it is, she might change Britney’s perspective and give her hope?
Lindsay herself recently confessed that rehab saved her life because she was on the edge and believed that she could’ve died if she didn’t change the course of her life.
So maybe one party girl can learn from another.

Lindsay Lohan says that she’s lucky she went to rehab when she did because her booze addiction could have killed her. Lindsay recently committed to a thirty day stay in rehab facility Wonderland and claims that loved ones had been worrying about her life prior to her treatment. “I was really sick. I went to hospital and had people sit me down who said, ‘You are going to die if you don’t take care of yourself.’ I heeded what they were telling me,” Lindsay tells News of the World.

Good thing she decided to stop her bad lifestyle habits when she did because she has so much talent – she’s even the inspiration for songs these days! British band McFly, who worked with Lindsay on the movie Just My Luck, have scribbled a song about the paparazzi princess. According to Entertainment Wise, Harry in the band got on very well with Lindsay and his band mates are helping him remember the experience with a new track called ‘Please, Please Lindsay, Please.’
Check out some of the lyrics: ‘Set the scene, I think I’m in love now. Your eyes are green, you come from above now. Your red hair, you’re taking me higher. You love yourself more than you love me.’ But the other guys in the band refused to let Harry partake in the writing process. “We banned Harry from having any say in the lyrics,” says Danny. “Me, Tom and Dougie sat down and wrote the song as a joke, then went up to Harry and said, ‘Mate, we just wrote a song about this Lindsay girl you hooked up with. You don’t mind, do you?’” But the boys admit Lindsay might not be as taken to the song as they were. “I’m not sure she’d like it, to be honest. She hasn’t heard it yet and we’ve no intention of playing it for her.”

Looks like Lindsay might be keen to drop everything in the US and start a new life in the UK. Maybe she’s so delighted to have been named the number one celebrity UK women want to look like that she wants to live there!
Okay, a bit of a long shot.
Lindsay, who is good friends with Bryan Adams, says that she’d love to set up a new home in trendy Notting Hill. “I like London a lot. I stayed at Bryan’s last year and thought Britain was great. It was that good I’m seriously considering moving there,” Lindsay told Now magazine.
The last time Lindsay was in Britain, she caused quite a stir (as she always does). According to a report by UK publication Metro, Lindsay spent her time partying with Calum Best, her other London-based friend. The two went for a joyride in Lindsay’s black Jeep and even collided with a police car. Lindsay was so amped to be there, she moved between Shoreditch in the East and the West End before heading to celebrity hangout Boujis – all in the same night.
Perhaps Lindsay is tired of her party ways, though, and just wants to retreat to a new place so she can lose her reputation of being a wild child? Or maybe the move forms part of her global party takeover plans– first stop: the UK.

Err, somehow this doesn’t look like a follow-up to the Brit Pack. Let’s hope Bryan and Calum are pro-underwear…

Lindsay’s stay in rehab seems to be helping her get on track with her life – and not just when it comes to sobriety. She is currently also fixing her relationship with her father, Michael Lohan, who is serving jail time for assault. Lindsay and her dad have not been in contact for years and she completely cut him out of her life. But then recently he sent her a letter and she was delighted to hear from her estranged father. The letter read, “I am so proud of you in that you are taking back control of your life and putting it back on track like God wants. Now it’s time to ‘clean house’ in every sense of the word, and start anew. My undying love, daddy.”
It smelled like a publicity stunt on Michael’s part because he ‘ran’ to the press with letter in hand (obviously it wasn’t a literal run because he’s in the big house). But that negative thought did not cross Lindsay’s mind. She was all-too happy to respond to her father. “It was such a welcome surprise. Lindsay was certainly touched and a little choked up,” a source said.
But Lindsay’s no fool – the source adds that she’s cautious to allow her dad back into her life after all this time, despite being keen to nurture a relationship with him. “She has been in touch and even though she is proceeding with caution she’s thrilled to have made contact with her dad,” the source said.
Nice, positive news for the Lohans, then.

Lindsay Lohan has made a huge career decision to drop out of her role in the movie, A Woman Of No Importance. The reason? No, it’s not because she’s been flaking, pitching up to sets late or because she’s back on the bottle. Actually, this time it’s a good decision on LaLohan’s part. According to Lindsay’s representative, Leslie Sloane, Lindsay has backed out of the movie because she doesn’t want to compromise herself anymore. “If anything has been learned, it’s that what she needs comes first – and right now she needs focus,” Leslie said. Apparently, the Mean Girls star is also sick and tired of dealing with all the media attention she has been receiving, especially now that she is in rehab, and just wants to focus on her life and her needs - out of the spotlight. Instead of leaping from one movie to the next, Lindsay just wants to relax for a few weeks, Leslie says. “It’s a mature thing to do. … She’s doing this so she can focus on getting better,” Leslie adds. Seems like a brilliant idea. Despite her not starring in A Woman Of No Importance, Lindsay will still appear in the movie, I Know Who Killed Me.

Recently Lindsay had to learn how to strip for her role in the upcoming movie I Know Who Killed Me, but her problems proved to be more serious than getting a few black-and-blue bruises from pole dancing lessons. She got herself into troubled waters when an email she wrote, in which she detailed her thoughts that all strippers are ‘whores,’ managed to find its way to the press.
Some strippers bit back, saying that Lindsay was no good at stripping and they were shocked that she had got the role. Cat fight alert!
To diffuse the situation, Lindsay recently apologized to strippers for her email faux pas - and she did more than just mumble out an apology. To really show how highly she thinks of strippers, the club-hopper was seen partying up a storm with some strippers at a New York hotspot called Scores West. She further brought her point home that she is stripper-friendly by telling nearby paparazzi that she’s a huge fan of adult entertainers. Lindsay openly declared, “I love strippers!” Couldn’t be clearer than that. One of the dancers that night was also rumored to have told Page Six that Lindsay is a generous tipper. “I think she’s great,” the woman added. Seems all is forgiven then.

Lindsay’s got some new bruises, but this time the marks on her body are not from alleged self-mutilating. They’re from dancing around a stripper pole!
The star is preparing for her role as a stripper for an upcoming film called I Know Who Killed Me and has been notching up many bruises from stripper lessons.
But the plot thickens - her bruises were revealed thanks to yet another crazy email Lindsay wrote which found its way to Page Six.
The email contained Lindsay’s complaints about her bruises. She writes, “So . . . 3 hours of pole dancing and bruised. Everywhere . . . I mean we’re talkin’ like, UPPER AND INNER THIGH ACTION-bruised . . . like a walking black-and-blue mark.”
And then she becomes more graphic, saying, “I mean really though, really, I didn’t know it was actually possible to have bruises in such areas of the body. Strippers dude, I tell you, I really respect the [c-word]s now. . . I’m not gonna lie to ya.”
Lindsay’s representative, Leslie Sloane Zelnik, told Page Six, “Her character is a stripper, and she now realizes that the job isn’t easy. We should give these women credit.”
Nice save, Leslie!

Recently Lindsay confessed to loving junk food, but it seems she’s a tad confused about what carbs actually are.

After Lindsay told OK! magazine that she loves eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, sushi and McDonald’s, she added, “But I don’t do any carbs or sugar.”
Lindsay has also claimed that she follows the Hollywood golden rule of dieting, which states that carbohydrates are a no-no.
Is she confused about where she stands on the carb issue or just confused about her food groups?

Say bye-bye to Lindsay’s skinny days – the Freaky Friday star says she’s over her ‘body worry’ days. She told Britain’s OK! Magazine that it’s okay to not like your body, but as you get older you grow into it and accept it. “Everyone goes through that phase where you’re not comfortable in your own skin. Then you learn you have to be confident with yourself and that shows through the most. You want to be sexy,” she says.
Lindsay also confessed that she’s got a soft spot for delicious food. “I eat all types of things. I love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.”
We hear you, Linds!
