Lindsay Lohan and the Headlines

By Dylan Richkards

Since the tender age of 3 Lindsay has been in the spotlight. By now she should have a good understand of what showbiz is all about. Unfortunately for her, she hasn't been able to handle the Hollywood scene.

Lindsay was born in the city of New York and first appeared on television as a Ford model. She went on to make television appearances on over 60 commercials. And in 1996, she made her first real debut on the series "Another World".

Lindsay starred in the movie "The Parent Trap" in 1998 which was a remake of the old version. In 2003, she starred in another film that really skyrocketed her career and Lindsay made the decision to move to Los Angeles.

It wasn't long until Lindsay was getting into cat fights with other stars over some boy toys. Lindsay's feud began with Hillary Duff over Aaron Carter, which is still going on. Another fight began between Ashlee and Jessica Simpson over That 70's Show actor Wilmer Valderrama.

Lindsay admitted in 2005 that she was a victim of bulimia which caused her to lose a lot of weight. Lindsay was just then releasing "Mean Girls," which took her to the next level.

In 2005, Lindsay was part of two car crashes that were caused by the paparazzi. And in 2006, she received a letter stating that she was being unprofessional and showing up to work late. Later on Lindsay broke her wrist while at a New York night club.

Lindsay began attending AA meetings in December of 2006 after much criticism. Apparently this didn't take since she was arrested two times on drunk driving charges. She was sentenced to jail for 1 day, a community service order and an 18 month alcohol education program.

Lindsay has been trying to fly under the radar since then. She is now filming "Labor Pains" which is speculated to have a fairly large release. Her next progress hearing is set for January 2009.
