Think back to when Ugly Betty was still on the air. Remember how they gave Lindsay what was supposed to be a multiple episode arc, but they got so sick of her they wanted her gone almost immediately. Well, yesterday Lindsay was late to her first day of work at Glee and everyone had to sit around waiting for her. Yeah, way to make a good first impression to the producers. You are probably at home sleeping off some kind of party from the night before while the money is draining like crazy from the budget and people are standing around doing nothing waiting for you to come to work. Tell me again why people want to hire her. Amazing work ethic? Acting talent? Frequent smoke breaks? Squeaky clean reputation?
No they hire her because nobody can resist a trainwreck apparently
ReplyDeleteAWESOME. Everytime she f'cks up an opportunity I get a little warm & fuzzy inside.
ReplyDeleteI think I must be a terrible person.
I know that she idolizes Marilyn Monroe, but Lindsay should try to work on emulating something other than Marilyn's notorious tardiness.
ReplyDeleteReason #1054 why I'm glad I quit Glee. I don't need to support this nitwit's most recent opportunity to screw up.
ReplyDeleteI was late for work too.
ReplyDeletepea soup is green
ReplyDeleteI swear I keep rooting for her. I'm not a fan anymore but something human inside me wants to see her get it.
ReplyDeleteI may have uttered a prayer or two on her behalf. This girl is so far from reality.
Please someone get Rosie O'Donnell to stage her intervention. There's no running away from HER!!
I think it's great that she's using her voice to speak up about Lindsay, maybe she will hear her.
In other news, bears shit in the woods.
ReplyDeleteThe Pope is Catholic.
ReplyDeletePeople love a train wreck, so it brings in ratings I would imagine. Everyone sitting around the tv waiting for a young celeb to fuck up.
ReplyDeletenow...i'm not saying LL doesn't have to be accountable here, b/c she most absolutely needs to be--and i realize i'm one of the few who truly wants to see this girl make a comeback, despite her incessant self-sabotage attempts--BUT, it is my understanding (thk you twitter, et al social media) that she was 1 hr late, but that it didn't hold up production. she was to be there for pick-up/reaction shots...her actual scenes had been shot days before and she actually was on time and all that good stuff, blah, blah...come enty, stop going for the sensationalist angle.
ReplyDeletethat said tho, an hr late for whatever it is still isn't acceptable, especially since it's something she committed to and was under contract for.
I read that Coach Beist (sp?) twittered how pissed she was to be waiting for LL. So - who knows?
ReplyDeleteHalf of it drug/alcohol induced stupor and the other half is passive-aggressive string pulling.
ReplyDeleteThey need to tell Blohan to show up a good six hours before she actually needs to be there. If they give her a midnight call time, she come staggering in at 6am. Problem solved!
*she'll come
ReplyDeletewhat do they expect when they hire her? That she will suddenly change? That bitch is headed to jail again soon..look how hard she tried to stay out of trouble "i was home watching tv"..."okay I was there"..."okay I threw a drink but she started it"
ReplyDeleteshe has had way to many chances.
She just can't behave...
ReplyDeleteHunter, it doesn't mean you're a bad person; it means you have a pulse.
ReplyDeleteThey just need to stop fucking hiring her.
What do you think is really in that cigarette?
ReplyDeletePeople will watch to see how badly she does on the episode. I wanna watch the train wreck. I also wanna see what's under that crappy wig.
@hunter - I'm joining you on the terrible people bus today ;)
Are you saying Lindsay is...unreliable? I am shocked. SHOCKED, I TELL YOU.
ReplyDeleteNothing but stunt casting. Yawn.
ReplyDelete@Pookie - That's what I heard too. Her major stuff had already been filmed.
ReplyDeleteI won't watch to see her. I gave this show up like six or seven episodes and I've only turned in to watch the Matt Bomer one. He's amazing though.
ReplyDeleteBut, isn't that what she does, always? Fuck up everything she touches? Why is anyone surprised by this anymore?
ReplyDeleteI also agree with the folks that want to see her succeed. But i do like to see a train wreck once in a while. Lindsay gets hired because she is well knowed and people still talk about her. It brings attention to the project even if she fucks up!
ReplyDeleteThey should have done a Southpark solution. Film all of her scenes with a stand-in (maybe a grossly overweight one). Paste a digital headshot of Lohan (her mugshot would be perfect) on top of the shoulders of the stand-in in all her scenes. Then add a disclaimer at the start of the episode explaining why you had to do it this way (the real LL wasn't there when they filmed her scenes).
ReplyDelete@Rose - I did the same thing!!! I gave up on this season but I *had* to watch the Matt Bomer episode. He makes me wish I were a gay man.
ReplyDeleteIt's their own fault for hiring this fucking loser.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys!
ReplyDeleteYeah, Matt Bomer makes me wish I was a gay man too.
Lindsay still thinks of herself as a movie star. Since her idol Marilyn Monroe made people wait on set for her then Lindsay can make them wait too.
ReplyDeleteExcept MM was an ICON and LL is a loser.
Agree with the above people hire her for trainwreck ratings not becuase they believe in her talent. Whatever is left of it. You think the girl would take some acting lessons.
Please tell me again why everyone thinks Lindsay is an amazing actress? I've never seen her act. She's a one trick pony...and she's always rushing through her lines in every movie...even before her drug fueled life. She's not as good of an actress as Emma Stone. She's not even that great looking, especially now. I don't understand.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if her obituary is written......
ReplyDeleteI used to hope she'd get it together, but don't think she will, she's been given so many chances and screws them all up. Yes the word is entitlement. Being late for a job? Your first job in years? Never mind that, making people WAIT for you? So disrespectful, Lindsay only thinks of herself. Lifetime should be firing her ass.
ReplyDeleteBeing late for work is unacceptable even if you had done the majority of your shoot.
ReplyDeleteNo one, except for an emergency should be late.
I am sad for this young lady. Truly sad that her talent and looks are gone and used up by drugs, alcohol and hangers-on.
Stunt casting. That's all.
ReplyDeleteChronic lateness annoys the fuck out of me. Can't stand it no matter who you are. It's incredibly rude and entitled and selfish. Kinda like how most people in today's world roll, right?
ReplyDeleteWhy would Lohan change if the asshats in Hollywood keep on giving her chance after chance.
Never hopped on the Glee train, thank Gawd.
@pilly you can bet her obit is already written. They probably edit and change it daily...actress killed in traffic accident, actress found dead from overdose, actress dead from alcohol poisoning,actress killed in bar fight, actress shot while leaving robbery scene.
ReplyDeleteI'll tune in for the Glee episode, I can't imagine they would let her do to much.
I'm down to, get help or get gone.
Don't forget, I'm CERTAIN she had a studio car waiting to pick her up. Not like she could say she was stuck in traffic, or her engine overheated, which actually sometimes happens to the rest of the mortal world.
ReplyDeleteLIFETIME brass (as well as GLEE, and Greta Van Susteren, SNL and all the other people & places who are rolling the dice to participate in her 'comeback') are ONLY taking the risk because they know whether she is terrible or not, they are guaranteed big "train wreck" ratings. That's ALL it's about. SNL had massive ratings that night and she was terrible and the rest of the hard working regular cast were miserable.
The LIFETIME movie was set to shoot in Toronto but changed to LA...most likely because she could not be insured in Canada.
I'm all for a person changing/saving their life, but she is being enabled by these people who are only wanting to cash in on her notoriety. How will they feel, I wonder, if she OD's on their watch? Rosie O'D is right - she needs a break away from show biz to REALLY get well, if she truly wants to. Robert Downey Jr. didn't have this easy a time with his comeback and he was genuinely committed to his sobriety. The folks hiring her are not doing her any favors - I'd argue that they are putting her at greater risk.
As stated above, it wasn't her first day, she was mostly done with her filming, but yes it was unprofessional. This is the same episode that Perez Hilton will be on, and I will not watch it. Those two are disgusting enough solo, but for Glee to put a bully on their show after all the preaching about bullying is a joke. Ryan Murphy is such an arrogant bastard.
ReplyDelete@FS, I didn't know Perez Hilton would be on, I can't stand him! He might actually make LL look a little better.
ReplyDeleteHave to say, LiLo has some balls so to speak. Most in Hollywood would not cross Ryan Murphy. That bitch can fuck your world up. Better start looking over your shoulder, Linds.
ReplyDeleteshe never fails to dissapoint. she's such a weirdo. how would you work w/ her? i imagine lots of eye rolling and head shaking.
ReplyDeleteThis will be the second episode of Glee that I watch this season. Can't wait to see Lindsay!
ReplyDeleteI am about 98% sure I'm done with Glee. I'm tired of being preached at, and Ryan Murphy seems dedicated to making every damn episode a "very special" one, pushing his own agenda onto everyone. Plus, I've heard that he is a HUGE bitch, and I don't like supporting people who are assholes.
ReplyDeleteI love Matt Bomer, so I was excited to see him on it, but I wish they had given him better material to work with (beyond the pointing tip -- that advice is golden!).
This doesn't even qualify as news. What would be news is if LiLo were to show up on time, prepared, and professional for the duration of her brief guest spot. She couldn't even do that. Yet another reason why I would bet anyone ONE MIIILLLLION DOLLARS that the stupid Liz Taylor movie will never be completed.
Good. The quicker she fucks this up the better. Get fired & hopefully blacklisted - aaaaaand then go to rehab, whatever and get your shit together. Career is OVER, just get well.
ReplyDeleteDon't watch it!! They're doing it for ratings. They're going to get high ratings because people are saying, "I want to see the train wreck!" Turn away -- it'll save us from future crap stunt casting. Turn away, and maybe she'll fade away.
ReplyDeleteOh FFS, why did they even hire her in the first place? Gyahh!
ReplyDeleteI have never watched Glee and the LL news isn't surprising to me. I just came to add to the Matt Bomer love. Like hunter, he makes me want to be a gay man. Not only is he hot, but I really admire the way that he came out on his own terms and didn't feed the machine.
ReplyDeletePerez is supposedly all about the nice now. I wouldn't know, because I quit reading his site two years ago - not long after I found CDAN.
ReplyDeleteHe and LL are two more reasons why I'll never watch Glee. I LOVE AHS, but I can't stomach Glee.
That Liz Taylor movie's never gonna happen, not with Lindsay anyway. No way will she show up.
ReplyDeleteIf it were someone else aside from you Pookie I would suspect someone oddly supporting a woman who has had more chances as a mole on the site. But I also think if she really REALLY wanted to change people's perception she wouldn't be one second late. In fact she should show up early and get people coffee. Seriously. And yeah Canada absolutely will not let her in the country. That's why they changed it to LA. Too many friends have told me how a former misdemeanor has derailed trips to the great white north.
ReplyDeleteI keep telling you people....somone HIGH UP has been photographed fucking Lindsay on SEVERAL occasions while she was underaged.... TIME REVEALS ALL
ReplyDeleteI'm on Team Sherry for this one; I've also heard (and was surprised about) how Canadian immigration takes a dim view of work permit applicants' having convictions for any type of crime.
ReplyDeleteThe show/studio *does* send a car. An actor supposedly desperate for work to restore her rep would have arrived early even for looping and pickups, shmoozed w/the cast and crew (and in her case, been *really* nice to the hair and makeup people, as bad as she looks). We're talking shaking babies and kissing hands, people.
First, it wasn't her first day or work, it was the second. It was for reaction shots. Second, she was about 5-10 minutes late. Not an excuse, and of all people Lindsay is the one person that should be on time, but the 5-10 minutes didn't actually hold up production.
ReplyDeleteC'mon dude, get it straight.
I'm with ya, @weezy! For someone so desperate to prove herself and rebuild her career, she should have been an hour early.
ReplyDeleteI'll be nice and say that beyond the cigarette in her hand, she looks pretty good here.
I thought Lindsay threatened to sue Glee if they didn't give her a part. In the Gwyneth Paltrow/Spanish teacher episode, she called Lindsay crazy.
ReplyDeleteYea... I think it did have to do with the episode with Gwyneth on it, she threatened to sue and Lindsay should have taken the part seriously, it's obvious she didn't and she should have shown up early, imo.
ReplyDeleteRosie has been talking for awhile about an intervention for Lindsay and her awful parents.
Liz Taylor was just an amazing icon that for her to be played by Lindsay who is still messing up??? Not good.
I wonder if Mike may be on to something...
ReplyDeleteShe has had so many chances, all false starts and disappointment BUT she keeps getting work.
I wouldnt be surprised if her mum pimped her out when she was underage and filmed it to ensure she could retain the Hollywood lifestyle she loves so much. Dina is as evil as Ryan ONeal.
Um...I like the dress she's wearing; the print's kind of cute... *sigh* Can't think of anything else good to say, though, so I'll just stop here.
ReplyDeleteWhocaresnow12 -- is that you, Dina?
ReplyDeleteCoach Beiste said she "threw a wrench in things." It sure sounds to me like she messed their schedule up. I can't believe how many excuses people continue to make for her.
