Lindsay Lohan has officially been arrested for her pre-rehab DUI in May, and she's been fired from a job for being an irresponsible fuck up. Stars: They truly are just like us. Or at least like your white-trash cousin Shane who drinks a case of PBR a day and hasn't ever held a job for more than three months.
The next time we feel like committing a crime we're heading to L.A., where you can get caught doing something illegal but not get arrested for another two months. That sounds pretty sweet. TMZ reports:
In one of the most under the radar moves she's ever made, Lindsay Lohan quietly walked into the Beverly Hills PD station late Thursday afternoon to be officially arrested for her May DUI.According to the official Los Angeles Sheriff's Department website, Lohan was held in custody for about an hour around 4:00 PM, until she was released on her own recognizance — routine for a first time DUI offender. Police sources tell TMZ that Lohan was "very pleasant and cooperative."
Lohan was charged with driving with a blood alcohol level greater than .08 and misdemeanor hit and run, this according to the Beverly Hills PD. Sources close to the case tell TMZ that this was simply a routine process, as often times people arrested for driving under the influence are simply cited and released.
For now, Lohan is scheduled to be back in court on August 24.
Lindsay obviously knows nothing about being a celebrity. If you don't tip off the paparazzi beforehand and bring your hair and makeup team to the mugshot shoot, what's the point of getting arrested? Taking responsibility for your actions? There's no payoff in that.
In semi-related news, it seems that the suits in charge of Lindsay's upcoming film Poor Things love blind items. Page Six sez:
IT may be too late for Lindsay Lohan's movie career. Despite her submission to alcohol monitoring and drug tests, Hollywood studios have become wary of working with the hard-partying star.Lohan was supposed to start filming "Poor Things" with Shirley MacLaine when she was out of rehab. But last week, product vendors including GE and Dell computers, who had been promised placement in the movie in exchange for cash, got a disturbing e-mail from set designer Fontaine Beauchamp Hebb.
Hebb's e-mail, with the subject line: " 'Poor Things' has been cancelled," said, "Sorry to be the harbinger of bad news, but I just received a call from Jacky Gilardi, the producer, pulling the plug on the ill-fated film.
"Apparently, Ms. Lohan's antics in Las Vegas over the weekend have scared the bond companies and all of the funding has been pulled . . . I look forward to working together in the future and trust our next project will not be as fraught with difficulty."
The insurers were said to worry that Lohan, despite wearing an alcohol-monitoring device around her ankle and claiming to take daily drug tests, had gone out clubbing with pals. (Ironically, the plot of "Poor Things" involves two women who befriend and then murder homeless men to collect their life insurance.)
But a Lohan friend fumes: "She had nothing to do with that movie shutting down. It was a mess to begin with. They randomly fired Channing Tatum for Giovanni Ribisi, and then financing fell through because producers spent money like water. It was only supposed to cost $4 million – Lindsay was being paid nothing for that role.
"Lindsay is proving to everyone that she is – and will remain – sober by voluntarily wearing the ankle bracelet and taking drug tests. This is not about her work. It's about her being able to live her life and go out with her friends without people writing nasty items about her."
We're pretty happy that this film may never be made, as it sounds like the stupidest g.d. movie ever. When was the last time you met a homeless man with life insurance? Probably about the same time you met a homeless man with loaded Bentley.
