[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I share everyone’s thoughts...randomly saw Mean Girls on MTV yesterday and caught myself watching the tail end then tuning in for (only 10 minutes because it was so bad) of her reality show. I caught a bit of the after show where she was interviewed by Aaron Samuels. I’m not sure what he’s doing with his career but he looked so much healthier and younger than her. She always had a raspy voice but she sounds awful! It was sad to watch. She did have some back to back screw ups around 2007/2008 but it didn’t seem she got a real chance at a comeback the way RDJ or [b]Drew Barrymore [/b]did after their addictions. I also wonder if she has any money left. Her parents really failed her, I saw her mom is going to be on Celebrity Big Brother. They have No shame[/quote] Drew came from a Hollywood family and her godfather is Steven Spielberg. She can ride forever on those coattails. RDJ’s father was also a famous actor and RDJ himself was famous before he really spiraled. Lindsay comes from a family of nobodies and had a minimal career before hitting the skids. I do still hope she has pulled herself together.[/quote] [b]You guys have some rose colored glassed on about her.[/b] TONS of people tried to help Lindsay rebound. She was going to have a show on MTV. Oprah gave her that special, Tina Fey tried to help her, she really had a million chances. The difference between Lindsay Lohan and all the others? She couldn't show up for work on time. That is basically it. She thouht she was too important but in an industry where every hour is money being punctual is important. She would frequently blow off entire days or leave early or show up incapacitated and unable to work. And then after a few years when everyone tried to give her a comeback narrative she did the exact same thing. And then she went off to live in Europe and the Middle East as an escort essentially when she ran out of money to stay at the Chateau Marmont. And spent the last 5-10 years having sex with rich men so they would fund her drug and luxury lifestyle. Why did this happen to her? Probably because Dina and Michael Lohan are the absolute worst and borderline abused her for years. Because both of them used her for her money and tried to make her fund expensive lives that THEY wanted. But then a funny thing happened, Lindsay turned into a version of Michael and Dina. She is just as crappy, emotionally abusive, lazy and moochy as her parents now. Perhaps even more so although she has had the good wisdom to never have a child. Instead of creating this fake life where Lindsay was just a victim of hollywood (which of course she was but not anymore so than Britney Spears who, once she got on drugs for her mental health and started working hard again did just fine) think about how the story of Lindsay Lohan is one that is repeated all across this country every day in the mountains of appalachia and the streets of Chicago. Promising, happy, beautiful children are born to eff up parents and because no one intervenes, no one removes them from clearly abusive situations (and Lindsay's situation was that she was CLEARLY being financially used and emotionally abused), because of that they grow up to be their parents, who go on to have more beautiful promising happy children who are slowly corroded by their parents. No one has sympathy for the Jamal's of the world this happens to, but we have unending sympathy for the girl who once starred in a really great movie. Lindsay Lohan is such an excellent case study in this, we should use it to increase our empathy for children all over the country going through something like this and try to help them before its too late. Because for most of them they don't have a plan b where they get to go live on yachts in the Mediterranean and occasionally be given a shot at a movie or television show for the rest of their lives.
