The Tragedy of Lohan Reflected Through an Interview
 

Interview

Because we have a slight obsession with the girl, we caught Lindsay Lohan on David Letterman last night. Anyone who saw can probably agree the girl looked more methed out than Pete Doherty, but that's not really where we come in.

We were more concerned with the part of the chat where Letterman held up the cover of Interview magazine with La Lo a la Liz Taylor on the cover and asked her about doing the interview.

"I'm really good friends with Ingrid Sischy," Lindsay confesses. "So, she just like taped our conversation … she didn't ask me anything specific." As a reporter, we're sure Sischy was none to pleased with that description of her skills. So, we are here to point out that yes, she did ask some specific (not to mention hard hitting) questions in the interview. (Special thanks to our Intern Calista for actually having the magazine and typing the whole thing out via email.)

Specific Question #1: When I say you're at a turning point, it's because it's clearly a period where people are going, 'Wait a minute. There's a real artist in there.' I'm just curious if you're aware of that.

Specific Question #2: But why were you changing so much? Because you promised all of these people you'd wear their clothes and it helps them when stars are photographed in their labels?

Specific Question #3: Why is your father in prison?

Specific Question #4: Tell me about this supposed fight. (With Jessica Simpson.)

Specific Question #5: So, I was going to ask you your thoughts about Marilyn Monroe. Here's this person the whole world has been riveted by for decades. Do you think there's something romantic about the tragedy? Is the tragedy part of what makes us lover her?

That last question in particular is riviting, mainly because we personally have always seen Lohan as possesing similar tragic qualaties to dear Norma Jean. For example, it's pretty tragic that while reporters manipulate her into thinking they are just having a friendly chat, Lindsay can't see that plenty of people's careers are being built on her frail back.

Oh, boo-hoo.

How do you know that she's being manipulated? It's not as if she is a helpless child; she is a grown woman who knows precisely what she is doing and what others are doing to her.
