La Lohan, kids, is mightily perturbed. From WENN:
Lohan fears she isn’t taken seriously by filmmakers because the last few turbulent years of her life - in which she was arrested for drink driving and spent time in rehab - tarnished her reputation as a serious actress.
No, seriously. She’s afraid that the time she spent in rehab, fending off her wackjob father, pursuing ludicrous roles and being in general a party girl might be killing her career.
This is like being afraid of the water and living on a houseboat.
Honestly, Lindsay–this is no longer something to be afraid of. If you’re afraid of it, you’re implying that it may not actually be happening. The problem, of course, is that it IS HAPPENING. Right this second. Let me say it nice and clearly in case you got another case of “heat exhaustion”: YOU ARE A HOLLYWOOD JOKE.
Okay, maybe I’m being too hard on Lindsay, but seriously–even The Smoking Gun backs me up on this one. Sure, there’s some leeway here. It’s said that Robinson pulled a total heel-face turn on this position just a couple months later, praising Lohan’s “professionalism” and insisting that she “doesn’t complain”, even after the well-publicized letter insisting that she acts like a “spoiled child”. The whole thing makes me wonder if maybe ROBINSON was the one having problems with the heat.
But anyway…between the problems with the family and the troubles with the law and the whole ongoing Samantha Ronson debacle, it’s enough to make me a bit sad for Lohan. Maybe she’s genuinely trying to turn her career around and is just facing an uphill battle from past mistakes. Give her a bit of benefit of the doubt here…she might genuinely be trying.
Either way, girl’s got a long climb ahead.
