Lindsay Lohan: From The Island Of The Lime Tree

About Lindsay Lohan:
Belated Happy Birthday!


Lindsay Lohan was born on July 2, 1986, in New York City, and grew up in Merrick and Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island, New York. She is the eldest child of Dina Lohan (born Donata Melina Nicolette Sullivan) and Michael Lohan. Her father is a former Wall Street trader who has been in trouble with the law on several occasions, while her mother is a former singer and dancer.


Lohan has three younger siblings, all of whom have been models or actors: Michael Jr. (who appeared with Lohan in The Parent Trap), Aliana "Ali", and Dakota "Cody" Lohan, the youngest Lohan child. Lohan is of Irish and Italian heritage and was raised as a Catholic. Her maternal antecedents were "well known Irish Catholic stalwarts" and her great-grandfather, John L. Sullivan, was a co-founder of the Pro-life Party in Long Island.


Lohan attended Cold Spring Harbor High School and Sanford H. Calhoun High School, where she did well in science and mathematics, until grade 11, when she started homeschooling.

Lohan's parents have a turbulent history. They married in 1985, separated when she was three, and later reunited. They separated again in 2005 and finalized their divorce in 2007.

The Beginning:

Lindsay Morgan Lohan is an American actress, model, and singer. She began her career as a child fashion model when she was three, and was later featured on the soap opera Another World for a year when she was 10.


At age 11, Lohan made her motion picture debut in Disney's remake of The Parent Trap (1998), a critical and commercial success. Her next major motion picture, Disney's remake of Freaky Friday (2003), was also a success at the box office and with critics. With the release of Mean Girls (2004), another critical and commercial success, Lohan became a household name and a frequent focus of paparazzi and tabloids. The two films earned her several MTV Movie Awards and Teen Choice Awards.

Lohan's debut studio album, Speak (2004), was certified platinum. Her second album, A Little More Personal (Raw) (2005), was certified gold. In 2008 and 2009, Lohan worked as a fashion model and launched the clothing line 6126.

Controversies:

1. Irresponsible & Unprofessional:
During filming in 2006, Lohan was hospitalized, her representative saying "she was overheated and dehydrated." At the time Lohan was going through a breakup with Hard Rock Cafe heir Harry Morton which contributed to her problems on the set, according to Allure. In a letter that was made public, studio executive James G. Robinson called Lohan "irresponsible and unprofessional." He mentioned "various late arrivals and absences from the set" and said that "we are well aware that your ongoing all night heavy partying is the real reason for your so-called 'exhaustion'."


In 2006, Lohan attended Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. Lohan, who has suffered from asthma since the age of two, is also a smoker. In early January 2007, production on the film I Know Who Killed Me was put on hold when Lohan underwent appendix surgery.

2. Drinking & Driving:
Lohan was then cast in the film Poor Things.In May 2007, four days before production was set to start, she was arrested on a charge of driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI.) The film's producers initially voiced support and production was put on hold as Lohan entered the Promises Treatment Center rehabilitation facility where she stayed for 45 days.


3. Possession Of Cocaine:
In July, less than two weeks out of rehab, Lohan was arrested a second time on charges of possession of cocaine, driving under the influence and driving with a suspended license. She ultimately lost the Poor Things part. In August Lohan pleaded guilty to misdemeanor cocaine use and driving under the influence and was sentenced to an alcohol education program, community service, one day in jail, and was given three years probation. Lohan released a statement in which she said "it is clear to me that my life has become completely unmanageable because I am addicted to alcohol and drugs."
In November Lohan served 84 minutes in jail. A sheriff spokesman cited overcrowding and the nonviolent nature of the crime as reasons for the reduced sentence.



In October 2009 Lohan's DUI probation was extended by an additional year, following several instances in which she failed to attend the court-ordered substance abuse treatment classes.


In May 2010, Lohan traveled to the Cannes Film Festival to promote the biographical drama Inferno. Because she was in Cannes, Lohan missed a mandatory DUI progress hearing. A bench warrant was issued for her arrest which was rescinded after she posted bail. A judge determined that Lohan had violated the terms of her probation by missing several mandatory classes and meetings. She was sentenced to 90 days in jail followed by 90 days of inpatient rehab treatment. Lohan served only 14 days of the jail sentence, due to overcrowding. She then entered an inpatient rehabilitation facility, from where she was released after only 23 days.


In September 2010, Lohan's probation was revoked following a failed drug test.She spent part of the day in jail before being released on bail. A few days later she entered the Betty Ford Center, a drug and alcohol treatment center, where she remained on court order for three months until early January 2011.

Hollywood executives and industry insiders commented that it would be difficult for Lohan to find employment until she could prove that she was sober and reliable, citing possible issues with securing insurance.


4. Sexual Orientation:
Speaking about her sexual orientation, Lohan has said she is not a lesbian. When asked if she is bisexual in 2008, she responded "Maybe. Yeah", adding "I don't want to classify myself." However, in a 2013 interview, she said, "I know I’m straight. I have made out with girls before, and I had a relationship with a girl. I think I was looking for something different."


5. Theft Of Necklace:
In February 2011, Lohan was charged with the theft of a necklace reported stolen from a jewelry store the month before. She was sentenced to community service and 120 days in jail for misdemeanor theft and probation violation, to which she pled no contest. Due to jail overcrowding, Lohan served the sentence under house arrest wearing a tracking ankle monitor for 35 days. In November Lohan was found to have violated the terms of her probation by failing to perform the required community service. She was sentenced to additional community service and 30 days in jail, of which she served less than 5 hours due to overcrowding.



6. Grand Theft Auto V:
In July 2014 she filed a lawsuit against Rockstar Games claiming elements in the video game Grand Theft Auto V were influenced by her image, voice and clothing line without permission. Rockstar responded in court papers that sought a dismissal of the case, saying that the case was frivolous and filed for publicity purposes.


7. Payment Issue:
She was the subject of a lawsuit from Exclusive Artists Management, Inc, which claim she has committed fraud, failure to pay for services rendered and breach of contract, reported TMZ.

The suit claims it booked a hairstylist and make-up artist for the actress "by and through" EFO Films, who are co-defendants in the suit, to work with her while she was at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2014 to announce she would be starring in a movie called "Inconceivable".

The lawsuit claims the movie never took off because of the difficulties in landing insurance for the troubled star, who has previously been in rehab six times and endured a number of legal problems.

8. Post Oprah Winfrey's show:
Lindsay Lohan was forced to leave NY. Lindsay Lohan claims her controversial stint on Oprah Winfrey's reality show left her little choice but to relocate overseas.


Lohan, who is currently staying here, talked about it in an interview with the Britain's Telegraph to promote her upcoming gig in a London production of drama ‘Speed-the-Plow’.

The 28-year-old, says her OWN docu-series, which exposed her alcohol relapse, alleged miscarriage and many emotional meltdowns on the small screen last spring - made her a target in her hometown of New York City, reports contactmusic.com.

“After the Oprah show it was kind of hard for me to be in New York,” she said. “There started to be paparazzi, and I didn't have that in New York in the beginning… Every time I left my house, they were at the corner,” she said.

9. Pay Back:
In December 2012, the IRS seized control of Lindsay's bank accounts to pay back the $233,000 she owes in unpaid federal back taxes. This latest move came just weeks after it was revealed that Charlie Sheen wrote Lindsay a $100,000 check to help pay her debts. Unfortunately that wasn't enough.
The docu-series on Oprah was interrupted because she had a miscarriage. "No one knows this: I had a miscarriage for those two weeks I took off," she said. "It's a very long story."

In August 2013, Lindsay Lohan earned a reported $2 million to film a series of in-depth interviews with Oprah Winfrey. A large portion of that money will be set aside for taxes, rehab fees and IRS debts.

The Story:

In 2007, her parents finalized their divorce: "I feel like a second parent in the sense that I helped raise my family...I was put between my mother and father a lot." Despite the conflicts, Lohan has spoken very fondly of her family. However, in 2007, 2008 and 2009 she said she cut off contact with her father, describing his behavior as unpredictable and hard to deal with. Following Mean Girls, Lohan spent several years living out of hotels in Los Angeles, of which two years were spent at Chateau Marmont. In late 2007, after settling down in more permanent residence, she explained that she "didn't want to be alone" but that "it wasn't a way of life ... not very consistent." She had a series of car accidents that were widely reported, in August 2004, October 2005, and November 2006, when she suffered minor injuries because a paparazzo who was following her for a photograph hit her car.

She wants to adopt her first child and then she would like to have two or four kids of her own.

"I love kids. But I want to adopt my first child, not just because it`s a trend or whatever, but I want to help a child and take one in and have it be my own. And then have some more myself, either two or four, I want to work for a year and then eventually settle down and have children and a husband."

Lindsay Lohan claims she’s left her wild days behind, after learning to surround herself with good people and avoid bad influences.

She told an American magazine blamed loneliness for her bad behavior.

Lindsay said: “Why did I allow sycophants and bad influences around me?

“I was lonely and I didn’t realize it. That’s why I came back to New York. I can see my family and I have good people in my life.”

Destroying Image:



Rodriguez claimed Lindsay struck him while she was driving a Porsche in New York.

The man said Lindsay was slurring and "smelled like alcohol real bad" at the time of the incident.

Police and others say Lindsay had not been drinking and alcohol was not a factor in the alleged incident.

Lindsay believes she could lose work if people think "she`s off the wagon", and so she is planning on suing Rodriguez for defamation.

"I`m tired of people lying just to score a quick paycheck," Lindsay said.
