Lindsay Lohan and her alleged lesbianism have message boards working overtime. Here are two snatches from DataLounge’s impossibly long string of comments:
On last night’s Living Lohan, 14-year-old Ali was “tormented” by some classmates who said she needs to stop trying to be like big sister Lindsay. (Well, they have a point.) Naturally, mother bear Dina was appalled, because apparently she forgot about what’s said in all those tabloids she reads every morning over coffee.

Back in 2006, Hollywood was staring at what could've been the end of Lindsay Lohan's film career. She was partying all night, rumored to be snorting her nutrients, and blowing off work while filming Georgia Rule. (Okay, so two years has changed little.) The movie's producer, James G. Robinson, even sent her a letter, demanding she adopt more self-control. In the end, of course, Lohan finished the movie, which bombed in theatres.
The ramifications, however, remained: Insurance companies became very nervous about bonding Lohan, which would stick them with a hefty penalty if, for whatever reason, Lohan couldn't complete her acting tasks. (Everyone from Kirsten Dunst to Paris Hilton have faced this problem.) Lohan became a risk, and insurers didn't want to bet a policy on it.
In 2008, it seems times haven't changed. CONTINUED »
Here’s the great thing about Lindsay Lohan: Girlfriend is crazy. Like, seriously off. In a recent interview with Style magazine, LiLo talks about fame and then misguidedly insists that her mother and father are some of her best friends: “I have a great Mom and Dad. We’re a very close family.” Really, Linds? Because we haven’t seen evidence of that — ever — and you’re aware of how obsessive the media are when it comes to your life. She then goes on to do that thing where she proclaims she’s the best person in the world and the press is just so hard on her:

OK! magazine, the Richard Desmond vehicle for American gossip domination, already has the Spears clan on the line, with an exclusive deal for Jamie Lynn's baby photos and story. Now, they're angling for Lohan coup, having reportedly made an offer to Lindsay to do a "coming out" cover story about her wo-mance with the DJ Samantha Ronson. The blood money? A cool $1 million. [P6] But Lohan's rep says they fielded the offer, and passed.
This leaves OK! now free to purchase photos of the duo smooching in public, and run the same coming out cover story, just with a question mark at the end of the cover headline.
We've tried our damndest to remove The View from our cultrual radar. Enough with Sherri Shepherd reminding America she's functionally retarded. Or Elisabeth Hasselbeck reminding America that she had a baby and loves George Bush. Or Whoopi Goldberg reminding everybody that she can barely stand to be there.
But then producers whipped up this genius segment: In discussing the possibility of booking Dina and Ali Lohan, who want to promote their Living Lohan show, the decision was made that they'd be allowed on the show … only if they were willing to discuss Lindsay. CONTINUED »
Though we only trust Nielsen's ratings numbers about as much as Lindsay Lohan's denials about enjoying a smooch with Samantha Ronson now and then, the ratings company is the bearer of bad news for the starlet and her fam.
Lohan's guest appearance on Ugly Betty's season finale only bumped audience numbers up by 300k from the previous week's episode; and that number was down 16.2 percent from last season's finale. [E!]
Not only that, but Lohan fatigue is on its way to officially becoming a trend: E!'s Living Lohan, which only mama Dina, sister Ali, and that little boy appear in, couldn't even beat Denise Richards' own reality show It's Complicated, which premiered back-to-back. Living nabbed 1.45m viewers to Richards' 1.5m. [Us]
At least there's a break between now and Lindsay's Carlos Gardel biopic Dare to Love Me, which might mean box office receipts will be down a mere 85 percent from I Know Who Killed Me.
More uncomfortable than watching Ali Lohan repeat the talking points about her E! reality show Living Lohan – that the show is an effort to "set the record straight," as her mother insisted on GMA, and that they're just another normal American family, and that "you'll have to watch" to see if Lindsay is on the show – that were drilled into her head?
More awkward than David Letterman calling Ali by her sister Lindsay's name?
More bizarre than seeing her Micro Mini Maltese dog on a table in the green room?
Watching Letterman allude to Lindsay's alleged coat stealing and Ali stumble over it.
That university student who Lindsay Lohan allegedly stole a $11,000 mink coat doesn't just want a payment and apology anymore — she wants to drag Lindsay's good name through the courts. Masha Markova is suing Lohan for lifting her grandmother's soft outerwear from a coat bin after a private party at the nightspot 1Oak, though she never would've known Lohan had been the supposed culprit had it not been for paparazzi photos published in OK! and elsewhere. [NYP] jReads the lawsuit, in part: "Defendant's [Lohan's] actions were intentional, oppressive and malicious and were carried out with reckless disregard for plaintiff's rights … Plaintiff has been injured by the defendant's actions." You're free to read that as: "Spoiled 22-year-old Ivy Leaguer sees chance at 15 minutes of fame by filing frivolous lawsuit instead of trying to gouge Lindsay's coffers privately."
Dina Lohan wants "boundaries with the paparazzi" when she also wants to earn a fee for pimping out her youngest daughter Ali? The scenario is so laughable, it's almost worth tuning in for. But also to see her scream at some gossip outlet – probably a blog! with a phone number! – for some raunchy pictures of daughter Lindsay.
You remember Lindsay, the daughter who for once had the foresight not to put herself in a terrible publicity situation and refused to take part in the show, making Dina's phone calls to her the only way to get her name involved in this charade? CONTINUED »
Ali Lohan "can't sing a a song that I don't believe in." Dina Lohan chimes in with "That can't happen, this is money." Ali Lohan imagines her rise to fame will be quicker than her sister's. Dina Lohan's blonde tresses look voluminous.
And that's all the substance you can expect from Living Lohan. CONTINUED »
Hugh Hefner generously announced today that naked Miley Cyrus would be nakedly "welcomed in [his] magazine" full of naked ladies—when she's of age, of course. [Us] This isn't the first time that the doddering coot, or his kin, pulled such a stunt, knowing full well the offer would get a write up in the gossip columns, but that the starlets would never agree. Below, a look back at some of the million dollar deals, made by creepy old men, and Joe Francis, that never were. CONTINUED »
When Lindsay Lohan starts downing shots of tequila with The Hills' Lauren Conrad, it's hard to tell who's social standing sank. [R&M]
The Columbia student whose $11k mink coat Lindsay Lohan allegedly stole now wants six-figures in punitive damages from the starlet, even though Masha Markova already said that after a dry cleaning and a patch job, the coat was as good as new. Meanwhile, Lindsay's rep Leslie Sloane Zelnik insists, "Lindsay did not steal a coat." This is the same Zelnik who, in the past, refused to comment on Lindsay's personal matters, insisting she only represented her movie career, SO YOU KNOW THIS IS SERIOUS.
