LINDSAY LOHAN - New york Fashion week



LINDSAY & SAMANTHA RONSON

LINDSAY, CHAROLETTE & SAMANTHA RONSON




Annabelle Dexter-Jones




from The Gothamist
If you haven't noticed yet, Fashion Week kicked off in New York on Friday. Yesterday the Humane Society teamed up with Charlotte Ronson for the fur-free designer's first Bryant Park showing. Before the first look came down the runway, however, her sister Samantha stole the show with her favorite accessory by her side: Lindsay Lohan. The paparazzi, crazed interns and everyone with a camera swarmed and nearly turned the duo into runway roadkill.

As for the show itself, Ms. Ronson told The Daily that her Spring '09 collection is inspired by "Music, concerts, I was discovering my style in fashion growing up in the 80s and early 90s. It's about going to your favorite shows, and what you would wear." Lohan wore a dress from the collection, and the show was a family affair, with Charlotte's model half-sister Annabelle Dexter-Jones showing off some looks, and Mark Ronson providing the soundtrack.

LINDSAY LOHAN - IGNITION INTERLOCK POSTER GIRL ???


Lindsay Lohan has contacted her legal team after discovering that USA TODAY ran a full page ad about ignition interlock devices that are used to keep impaired drivers off the road. The ad used a mug shot of Lohan stating that it is a good idea for the star but a bad idea for us.

Lindsay’s lawyer Blair Berk issued the following statement:

USA TODAY is idiotic for running such an irresponsible advertisement, suggesting that drinking and driving is some kind of American “tradition” we should protect. Not identifying that this ad was paid for by the liquor industry is profoundly reckless.

Drunk, old, white businessmen, drunk cougars out for girls night out, and drunk wedding parties should be kept off the roads of America. Lindsay Lohan fully endorses ignition interlock devices that have been well-proven to save lives.”

We would assume that someone will be made to pay for the ill advised use of her mug shot and sending a message that smacks of recklessness. Stay tuned for more on this story.

LINDSAY LOHAN AS MARILYN MONROE ???








In 1962, photographer Bert Stern shot a series of photos of Marilyn Monroe that have collectively come to be known as “The Last Sitting.” Taken during several boozy sessions at the Hotel Bel-Air, the photographs are arguably the most famous images ever captured of America’s most famous actress: Monroe, sleepy-eyed and naked, sips from a Champagne glass, enacts a fan dance of sorts with various diaphanous scarves, romps with erotic playfulness on a bed of white linens. Six weeks after she had posed, Monroe was found dead of an apparent barbiturate overdose.

The photos endure partly as artifacts—as the last visible evidence of the living woman (a legacy reinforced by Stern’s decision to publish the contact sheets Monroe herself had crossed out in red marker). But the pictures are also remarkable for the raw truths they seem to reveal. In them, we see an actress whose comedic talents were overshadowed by her sex appeal, a woman who is cannily aware of her pinup status, yet is also beginning to show her 36 years. In many shots, she is obviously drunk. This was an unhappy time for Monroe. Notorious for her on-set antics, she had been publicly lambasted by Billy Wilder after Some Like It Hot, then fired from the production of Something’s Got to Give; she’d endured two recent divorces and, in 1961, a brief stint in a psychiatric ward.

Stern excavated and preserved the poignant humanity of the real woman—beautiful, but also fragile, needy, flawed—from the monumental sex symbol. In our armored, airbrushed age, his achievement feels almost revolutionary.

Forty-six years later, Stern has revisited his classic shots with Lindsay Lohan, another actress whose prodigious fame is not quite commensurate with her professional achievements. Stern, who shot the photos on film rather than digitally, told me he was interested in Lohan because he suspected “she had a lot more depth to her” than one might assume from “those teenage movies.” Indeed, many in the film industry believe that Lohan has yet to pursue projects equal to her gifts. Without putting too fine a point on it, you might say Lohan has, like Monroe, a knack for courting the tabloids and tripping up her career. (Readers will remember that Lohan had her own Billy Wilder moment two summers ago on the set of Georgia Rule.) Stern said the project also grew out of his interest in “controversial women,” or “bad girls,” like “Britney, Paris, and Lindsay.” Monroe was, in a sense, the original tabloid queen.

Though Lohan’s willingness to reprise the photos might seem a sly nod to her scandalous past, the actress offered a straightforward explanation. “I didn’t have to put much thought into it. I mean, Bert Stern? Doing a Marilyn shoot? When is that ever going to come up? It’s really an honor.” During a break in the daylong shoot, Lohan sat cross-legged on a bed in the four-room suite and spoke to me, in that familiar throaty voice with its staccato rhythms, about her abiding obsession with Monroe. Her interest took root a decade ago with multiple viewings of Niagara during the London filming of The Parent Trap. She has even purchased an apartment where Marilyn once lived. “If you saw my house … I have a lot of Marilyn stuff,” she told me, including a huge painting of Monroe.

“It’s eerie,” Lohan said of the painting, a Christmas gift, “because it’s this picture of her, and it’s kind of cartoony, and there’s a big bottle of pills next to her, and they’ve fallen over.” Lohan called Monroe’s suicide “tragic,” and then added, elliptically, “You know, it’s also tragic what just recently happened to someone else.” I asked whether she was referring to Heath Ledger. She nodded: “They are both prime examples of what this industry can do to someone.” Why some and not others, I asked, since it has often seemed that the thrice-rehabbed Lohan might meet a similar fate. Lohan replied with a flicker of annoyance: “I don’t know. I’m not them. But I sure as hell wouldn’t let it happen to me.” Still, one wonders whether Lohan’s participation in this project, given all the spooky parallels, isn’t the photographic equivalent of moving into a haunted house. (Which, in fact, she may have already done.)

Lohan viewed the shoot as a theatrical performance, as a chance to inhabit the role of an idol. “I wanted to portray the book and get it point-on as much as I could, to bring it back to life,” she said. Hence the strict mimesis: scarves, nudity, and all. “Not more than fifteen minutes had passed since she’d arrived, and already she had agreed to take her clothes off!” Stern writes of Monroe in his swaggering introduction to The Complete Last Sitting, the book in which all 2,571 photos have been collected. He might have said the same about Lohan. “I was comfortable with it,” the actress remarked of the nudity (though she did confess to doing “250 crunches” the previous night). All made up, in winged eyeliner and shellacked blonde wig, Lohan, who has returned to her former voluptuousness, at times appeared more Marilyn than the thin, somewhat diminished woman of the original Marilyn photos. “It was very similar, déjà vu you might say, like revisiting an old street,” said Stern.

The original photos, however, were distinguished by an almost claustrophobic intimacy between photographer and muse. In the first session, Stern persuaded the entourage of stylists to leave him alone with Monroe. The shoot thus took on the symbolic (if not the actual) contours of a liaison. The rise of the celebrity industrial complex has rendered this sort of tense pas de deux all but impossible. At the Lohan shoot, the crowd included Lohan’s manager, her security guard, and her younger sister, Ali; a makeup artist and assistant, a hairstylist and assistant, a stylist, a manicurist, a sentry to watch the borrowed diamonds; Stern, his manager, and two photo assistants. Lohan and Stern worked in an adjoining room, while the rest of us hovered outside like groupies at a backstage entrance.

“Here is a woman who is giving herself to the public,” Lohan said, about the Monroe photos, when we spoke the next day by phone. “She’s saying, ‘Look, you’ve taken a lot from me, so why don’t I give it to you myself.’ She’s taking control back.” Like any tabloid veteran, Lohan understands the potency of a photograph, and that the best way to respond to a society that views you only as an image might just be on its own terms.

Daily News lists Top 50 Dumbest People in Hollywood

KK WAS EDGED OUT BY LINDSAY !!!

BY JO PIAZZA
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITER
Friday, November 30th 2007,


And the most contrived list of the week award goes to ...

Entertainment Weekly magazine, which waded through the intellectual wasteland of Los Angeles to create a list of the 50 smartest people in Hollywood, released the list Thursday.

"Knocked Up" creator Judd Apatow leads the brainiac pack, with Ben Affleck holding up the back end at No. 50.

The mag asserts that smart could mean any number of things: "It encompasses book smarts and street smarts, financial genius and emotional intelligence."

Picking through the cerebral corridors of America's most vapid city seems a daunting task.

An easier route: The "Top 50 Dumbest People in Hollywood."

Dumb doesn't necessarily correspond to a low IQ. There are poor life choices, style slipups and mishaps under the influence to take into account.

Topping a highly unscientific Daily News list of the "Dumbest" is Lindsay Lohan. The reason: poor movie choices ("I Know Who Killed Me"), delinquent behavior and bad taste in men.

The rest of the top five:

2. Kim Kardashian - because it is sad when you leak your sex tape and nobody cares.

3. Spencer Pratt - who thinks his life on MTV's "The Hills" is reality - and believes we think so, too.

4. Jeff Kwatinetz - the man that gave the okay for Britney Spears' disastrous MTV Video Music Awards performance.

5. Shia LaBeouf - the 21 year-old "Transformers" star, for getting arrested while refusing to leave a Walgreens pharmacy.

The other "winners":

6. Heidi Montag, reality television star

7. Jessica Simpson, singer

8. Kiefer Sutherland, actor, recurring drunk driver

9. Tori Spelling, former teen actress/daughter of a media mogul

10. Rumer Willis, daughter of two famous people

11. Nick Hogan, son of pro wrestler

12. Courtney Love, aging rock chick, disaster

13. J.R. Rotem, music producer and possible Britney Spears baby daddy

14. Britney Spears, pop star, train wreck

15. Brad Garrett, comedian, paparazzi hater

16. Ken Paves, celebrity hairdresser, hanger-on

17. Jennifer Love Hewitt, actress

18. Brad Womack, indecisive Bachelor

19. Michael Jackson, former singer, mess

20. Cash Warren, celebrity boyfriend

21. Audrina Patridge, "The Hills" star, vapid conversationalist

23. Vanessa Minnillo, former VJ, celebrity girlfriend

24. Mel Gibson, actor, drunk driver

25. Michael Richards, comedian, racist

26. Brandon Davis, party boy, racist
