Lindsay Lohan can't find any takers for a lucrative post rehab interview and can't make any money while she is in rehab. Meanwhile,. Dina is probably spending Lindsay's money at an alarming rate. So, what does that mean for Lindsay? "There is simply no money left. Lindsay manages to live high off the generosity of others; however, asking for free clothes and dinners at fancy restaurants is one thing, asking for $50,000 cash is something totally different. Her people tried and failed to sell her first post rehab interview for big bucks, so her only option now is to find some sort of sponsor."
Yes, I can see it now. I have said it before that Lindsay needs to tattoo a name of a company on her body or sell naming rights to herself. Change that middle name to Rockstar or Red Bull and watch the money roll in. Until then though, she is kind of stuck. She has to stay in rehab and I doubt that Lindsay cannot come up with $50K. There must be someone who would be willing to pay her money for something. Cough. Don't be surprised if Lindsay ends up going to some foreign country right after she gets finished with the whole rehab and probation thing in February.
Addiction counselors will tell you that despite the havoc they wreak in their lives, the last thing addicts lose is their jobs, which they need to maintain the addiction. Lindsay lost her main source of income years ago, and really HAS been relying on others to throw money her way. She'll never get well until people stop enabling her - seems to me RDJ hit a way lower bottom.
ReplyDeleteTrue that about RDJ.
ReplyDeleteDidn't she just get a big lawsuit settlement...what happened to that money ?
ReplyDelete"Lindsay manages to live high off the generosity of others"
ReplyDeleteThere is something so sad about that statement. Because when the "others" move on to the next thing, which they always do, the fall is long and hard.
If Lindsay is as broke as she claims, then why isn't Dina helping pay for rehab? Or for that matter, Michael? If the two of them are as successful as they promote themselves to be, and are as supportive of their daughter as they claim to be, they can't come up with $25 grand each? Mortgage the house, sell something, take out a bank loan... isn't their daughter worth more than a paycheck and a free ice cream card to them? Where the hell do they get off expecting OTHERS to "sponsor" and take care of their "child" when it comes to the bills? But when Lindsay is riding high they sure do love the attention, don't they?
If nothing else proves what lousy parents those two are, this does.
Let her go to a "non-celeb" rehab like the real folks. One that charges whatever a patient can pay and relies on grants, donations, and candy sales. She's gotten a free pass for too long, if she can't pay for Betty Ford, why in the hell is there?
ReplyDeleteAnd we wonder why she's never accountable?
I think Lindsay has been supporting her family for a long time, hasn't she worked since she was a kid ?
ReplyDeleteShe's made some money..guess it's long gone...
but I know she rents doesn't own anything...
24 and a has been....she is really so sad and the worst part is, she just doesn't get it !
I 1,000,000% co-sign califblondy's statement. I thought the same thing, but couldn't articulate it like you did. Thanks.
ReplyDeletewhat about that idiot that keeps leasing her maseratis to crash? he could sell one of them and finance the rest of her rehab.
ReplyDeleteseriously, this whole line of bullshit is part of her denial. if she 'got it', she'd understand that unless she gets into real recovery, she won't be ALIVE to earn any money.
as long as she acts like rehab is cramping her style, she clearly doesn't 'get it.'
I will sponsor her - I have a loaf of bread and some Peter Pan peanut butter I can send her. Plus, some potato chips and kool-aid pacs. Who knows, maybe if someone was able to get her back to the basics, she might appreciate life a bit more and actually start a recovery that will work. Throwing money her way only contributes to her sense of entitlement.

ReplyDeleteShe could sell the jewelry she wore to court to help pay for rehab.
ReplyDeleteShe's just looking for an excuse to get out of rehab. If she can afford her coke habit, she can afford rehab. If she doesn't finish rehab, her interview income will disappear. I hope no one "sponsors" her. She doesn't need more enablers. She needs to realize the consequences of her actions.
Again, the "here help her, I mean US" attitude of her Mom is beyond sickening! And yes, she did work back in the day and I can guarentee you that she is still getting residuals off of her projects-I am sure that they are spent before the check hits the bank.
ReplyDeleteWhy should someone sponsor her? Did'nt they say that she wanted to be out of the spotlight. Its called mortage the house, sell her house in LA and do what the F you have to do to make sure that your child survives.
Her chances are slim to none.
I'm imagining Dina singing HER version of Reba's old song...
ReplyDelete"She said here’s your one chance ALI don’t let me down..."
Exactly what I was thinking, Enty -- she'll be headed off to Europe.
ReplyDeleteQuestion: what happens if a Judge orders rehab in a place the convict can't afford? How does that work? Does the court then remand them back to jail for the rest of the sentence?

ReplyDeletei am soooooooooooooo tired of hearing about her. shame to everyone for writing about her and not ignoring her. broke? not to broke to put those duck lips in her face.
ReplyDeletei'd rather be hearing about sarah palin's life at this point.
Gosh, it's Lindsay's lucky day -- Minor Considerations has a standing offer to send her to rehab ... except that it's their rehab, a real rehab, away from the media, her parents, her users, her connections, etc, etc ...
ReplyDeletehttp://www.minorcon.org/offer_stands.html
She can't afford rehab, but I'm sure if they let her out, she could afford to party every night, shop all day every day, lease outlandishly expensive cars, and pay for the good stuff.
ReplyDeleteLike a couple of others said, let her go to a state-run or Salvation Army-run rehab. Hang out with real junkies. Realize she is no better than they are. I have no sympathy for her at all.
i'm w/ pulling her from betty ford and sticking her somewhere obscure like paducah, ky...should be far more affordable in the heartland. the parents need to stop milking and bilking their daughter. assholes. gosh, i love that word today.
ReplyDeleteI don't believe that she is that broke. I don't!
ReplyDeleteI love the "she sure could afford her duck lips"
ReplyDeleteHA!
I agree- put her in a Salvation Army Rehab, or one on par with it. Spend what you can afford.
@Syd - Fancy was her name. :)
ReplyDelete@Melody the First - I wonder how many others like that have offered? That one is not far from LA/Hollywood even.
Rehab is super expensive, as I've known some people who had to go. For some who actually WANT to go and get help, it can be almost completely unaffordable. Even the non-prestigious places.
But I have no sympathy for Lohan's money woes. Not when she pissed away all that money on God knows what.
The problem for LiLo with the Minor Consideration rehab is it's a real, brass tacks rehab. They cut them off from all the enablers. They also counsel them to leave the business or at least change their lives substantially.
