She is disgusting. I hope she does the full time, but ... why do I doubt it? She is such a smart-axx! :furious:

I think acting out is the new cheep advertising. My opinion but no doubt more than a few can be googled.

Imagine a world where all had perfect parents of their own designing (Anthony of Twilight Zone fame for example), drink all they want, snort all the cocaine they please (and any other illicit drug that suits their fancy), could jet around the world at will and never had to work for a living. and paint their fingernails with obscenities to judge & society. poor lindsay my eye.

What if she killed someone's children in her drunken stupor? Is that the only game-changer? Or would people still then call for sympathy for HER so long as it's not their loved one she killed in a drunken/drugg-fueled binge?

I said I wasn't excusing her just understanding why she might be as she is.

Well, I'm still hoping for her anyway. Two of my siblings acted a lot like LL. One successfully rehabbed and has been clean for 25 or so years; one died. I guess it could go either way.

I'm sorry to hear that, at least one escaped.

How classy of her: circulating on the internet are Getty pics from the hearing... in some of them there are closeups of Lilo's well manicured nails... where a little message is written on her middle finger.

http://www.zimbio.com/Lindsay+Lohan...ay+Lohan+Sports+Unladylike+Manicure+Courtroom

We already knew she was giving the justice system the proverbial middle finger/"f you" flipoff by the fact of not complying with the terms of her probation, but for her to walk into that courtroom with that written out on her nail: that is pretty darn bold and low. The girl is in need of a serious attitude adjustment.

She knew damn well her message on her middle finger would be seen by the media. I bet she even had someone tip them off to look closely at her fingernails.

She does need help. She has needed help for a long long time. However, the help she needs is not cushy or an overabundance of love, she needs to understand consequences to her actions and the fact the rules apply to her.

Then the dr's can move on to the deeper issues as to why the need to destroy herself. There are obviously very painful things going on in this young woman's psyche that need to be dealt with.

Since I am an official arm chair psychiatrist I will give you my diagnosis:

At a young age Lindsey must have known that her family's livelihood depended on her. That is a heavy duty responsibility to lay on a child.

Lindsey's mom is a "cool" mom. One that any teenage girl would love to have. Trouble is it appears that her mom made Lindsey her friend rather than her daughter.

They have been spotted at clubs together before Lindsey was old enough to drink among other things.

Lindsey's dad has served time in prison and has a broken relationship with her. He has been seen recently on many talk shows talking about how to save Lindsey and saying it is his ex wife that is the problem.

It is common sense to realize that a parent going on national TV and blaming the other parent for the child's trouble is a very bad idea and very damaging to the child.

Both parents share the blame for Lindsey.

HOWEVER, now that Lindsey is an adult she can't blame her parents, her upbringing, for her stupid mistakes. She needs to take control of her life and find out why she is so self destructive and she needs to take full responsibility for her actions.

Only then will Lindsey be well enough to function and have a normal life.

Next patient please.

Oh for pete's sake Lindsey.

I tried so hard to reach deep down in my tiny little heart and give you some benefit of the doubt and to try to pray that you get help.

The F*U stunt in court is just over the top.

You deserve everything that comes your way IMHO. I do still hope that you can get off drugs and alcohol but you need your fanny smacked, or a proverbial punch in the forehead to wake your triflin' behind up.

Steams me.

I truly believe the "Right On" Program that administered the alcohol classes for this BRAT should also be held accountable to the Judge! They obviously treated Lindsey like a spoiled princess because of her celebrity! Goodness...There were days when they had her signed in for a class and she wasn't even there!! WTH! They never checked up on her so-called excuses and let her slide with all the missed classes. I would think twice about using this facility again if I were Judge Revel!

Kathy Griffin does an interesting bit in her stand up act that is a window into Lindsey's life.

I won't even try to be as creative and cleaver as Kathy in repeating her Lindsey story but it goes like this:

Kathy met Lindsey at some party. Lindsey was bright, funny and very together.

A few months later Kathy sees Lindsey at a club. Lindsey is surrounded by people and stares at Kathy blankly when Kathy approaches her to talk to her. Doesn't say a word to Kathy, Just stares.

That is, without a doubt, a sign that someone has ingested a drug that messes them up big time.

Kathy sees Lindsey again in a restaurant and this time Lindsey is with one person and is her bright eyed funny self again.

This is so textbook and so obvious that it is frustrating to watch this train wreck of a human being go down the track of self destruction.

Get rid of the groupies who give her drugs, get her cleaned up and into intense therapy combined with jail time so she gets it. So she gets that this is a chance that many people never get.

The next time she will end up either dead or injured. We all know it. We all know what is coming if she doesn't' change her life.

Too true. That facility needs to be audited and them most likely have their contract with the state terminated. I was shocked listening to the testimony from people at that facility.

It was actually touching of the judge to order a doc to evaluate Lindsay's legal prescription drug use and determine whether they and alcohol use are harmful to her health. The judge may be the only person in Lindsay's life who is worried about her.

Sadly, from the looks and sound of it, Dina is raising the 16 yr old sister the same way. When the little sister was barely 13/14 and her mom was trying to get the child's recording/acting career off of the ground: pictures started popping up of the child looking much like she had undergone plastic surgery (mainly beast implants). Her transformation went from looking age-appropriate, to looking well beyond her years and as if she was trying to convey a sensual persona. Without a doubt, her mother had her hand in it... no way did that child go out and have that done, all by herself.

Both momma and daddy have used, are using, and will probably keep using the girls for their own spotlight. It is sad and pathetic...

Today's online Manchester Guardian is almost alone in saying something positive about LiLo, pointing out the terrific talent she's wasting. From the two key paragraphs:

My advice to anyone tempted to write off Lohan is: look at the films....(T)here's no arguing with the brains and fizz she brings to Mean Girls, Tina Fey's knowing comedy about the political espionage of high-school life. Or the self-aware humour that runs through her work in A Prairie Home Companion, Robert Altman's final film, set on-stage and backstage at Garrison Keillor's folksy radio show. Despite mingling with a formidable cast including Meryl Streep (who played her mother), Kevin Kline and Tommy Lee Jones, Lohan – then just 20 – exuded an easygoing grace as the pink-stetsonned teen poet who composes suicidal stanzas....

Her colleagues on that picture were quick to note the qualities that don't show up in the average gossip-column jibe or pap-snap. "She is a serious actress, she's been very well schooled," remarked Keillor. "I know nothing about what she does late at night. Not my business, nor am I that curious." Streep became a cheerleader for her on-screen daughter. "She is a terrific actress," she told W magazine. "It's something that you could see even when she was little-bitty. I'm aware of the tabloid stuff because my kids tell me – but I don't read it, and frankly, I couldn't care less. When they say 'Action', Lindsay is completely, visibly living in front of the camera, and that's all anybody really cares about. I think she could do anything she puts her mind to."

the rest is well worth reading, too, at

I know I'm in the minority here, but there is a part of me that still feels sorry for her.

She's lost.

She should have to pay consequences for her behavior though. Hopefully, she will one day look back and know that it was the best thing for her- could even save her life.

Amen, Steadfast, Amen! I'm sorry for your loss! :blowkiss:

ITA and chances are the only way she will ever get and stay clean is ending all contact with both parents until they get the help they need.

I have a prediction. Lindsay Lohan will be dead in two years if she doesn't stop with the uppers, downers, and alcohol. That is a deadly mix.

Lindsay Lohan always puts me in mind of Janis Joplin as far as looks. Unfortunately I see Lilo also repeating her death.

You guys should check out her twitter. She is unreal.

Ok, time for the judge to put the smackdown on this biotch! :tsktsk:

My issue, Nova, is her smirky, "don't you know who I am?" attitude. I guess she's young (however, in Hollywood terms, she's not), but perhaps it's time she got her stuff together and grew up. If she wanted help, I'd have sympathy for her. However, I see no evidence of that.

I certainly understand your reaction. None of us appreciates people who act like they are better than everyone else.

But in fairness to Miss Lohan, by and large, she has been treated as if she were better since she was what, 9 or 10? No wonder the idea took hold.

I hope her current problems serve as a reality check. For her sake.

You’ve left me to assume your admonition applies to all but Lohan considering her drunken driving showing disregard for all society including innocent children on the highways with her drunken and drug suporous self. Then comes to court yesterday with profane expletives on her middle fingers held up repeatedly to the judge showing total lack of basic human compassion for society’s laws, the court and the judge.

To suggest anyone who doesn’t approve of her obscene behavior expects “..pure as the driven snow…’ puritanical society is a preposterous notion in my opinion.

I never paid a bit of attention to the woman before yesterday and only then because I inadvertently had time and ran across the hearings by accident. I don’t have to wonder what she is. Her message of vulgarities and disrespect rang loud and clear.

She did cause me to have basic human compassion for the judge who she willfully showed such disrespect for. She caused me to have basic human compassion for all of society. Who would be anxious to live in a society of people like her who have no respect for our courts or laws. In childhood and in life everyone bares honorable scars. She’s not unique in that.

Don't assume I hate her or have no "sympathy" because I don't approve of her obsceneties to the judge in court. I don't even know her. Sympathy for what? She had a rough childhood? She works? Personally I wish no one would put themselves in jail. I wish all would respect basic laws and show basic human compassion to their fellow countrymen. Unlike Lohan has chosen.

I'm just saying you can feel all the "sympathy" you please for Lohan while also recognizing that there must be regard shown the rest of society.

I'm sorry my post was so difficult for you to read. No doubt the fault lies in poor writing on my part.

I never remotely suggested that anyone should "approve" (your word) of Lohan's misbehavior. I never suggested she was being unfairly treated by the Court. (On the contrary, I think the judge has shown considerable patience.)

I think it's obvious Lohan is a deeply troubled young woman and I suggested such a person deserves sympathy--not absolution--from caring human beings.

And I further pointed out that while there are considerable perks to being a child star, there are also considerable pressures and problems. Pressures that probably aren't healthy for developing bodies and psyches.

It can't be a coincidence that so many child stars end up with substance abuse and/or legal problems, assuming they don't actually get themselves killed at a young age.

Finally, "pure as the driven snow" is an old expression, not to be taken literally. I hope this helps clear up the confusion.

Steadfast, I am very sorry about the loss of your sibling. I'm glad the other one did so much better.

On that note, if I understand correctly, the "free ice cream card" problem wasn't that LL herself was using it, but that her mother had taken the card and assumed its privileges for herself and others.

This may say quite a bit about where LL gets some of her sense of entitlement.
