What’s the latest scoop on Lindsay Lohan? Well, it’s not a rekindled romance between herself and Samantha Ronson.
According to Us Weekly, Lindsay says that she wasn’t shy about the girl-on-girl romance, but that she and the deejay are too “toxic” to be together. “I was bold enough to say, ‘Yeah, I like a girl. And?’ That put her in a situation where she was being attacked every day. That’s not fair. And what am I left with? Heartbreak. That was three years ago. It was my last serious relationship.”
“I needed to love myself first before I could be with anyone,” the onetime “Mean Girls” teen star explained. And I was going through a lot. Two toxic people cannot be together. End of story.”
But Lindsay is working now to get her career back on the fast lane. This past Sunday she appeared in one of the year’s most talked-about television events, the Lifetime movie “Liz & Dick,” and the actress has been working the talk show circuit to promote the flick. But how is the movie fairing?
The numbers are here, and although the biopic melodrama about Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton and their storied affair was not Lifetime’s most watched TV movie of 2012, “Liz & Dick” still pulled in 3.5 million watchers for its premiere. Although those numbers may not have been as high as the channel was hoping for, “Liz & Dick” was the fourth most-watched Lifetime movie this year.
Lohan has been keeping herself somewhat busy, and is proud to say that she has two more movies in the pipeline. “I’m happy. I just did three movies in a row, and I’m not even tired,” the actress told Us Weekly. She next appears in “Scary Movie 5” with Charlie Sheen, and then she’ll appear in the “The Canyons” alongside porn star James Deen.
Meanwhile, her costar Charlie “Tiger Blood” Sheen has been giving the actress some advice on her career. He says she should look into TV, where the star was able to make hundreds of millions after his movie prospects began to fade. And Sheen suggests that Lindsay star in a show based on her own life.
A source told the magazine: “Charlie Sheen told her that she should do it. Charlie told Lindsay that it was an easy way to make very good money and help her to get her movie career back on track. Lindsay is loving the idea of having her own sitcom, and would love to play someone in a story based on her crazy life.
Apparently she has asked her manager and agent to see if television would be a good fit. A comedy is what she would really like to do. We all know that Lindsay has the acting chops for comedy, so it will be interesting to see if the project pans out.
Finally, Charlie is apparently giving Lindsay more than just advice. He recently loaned her $100,000 to cover her tax expenses. Generous, no? The two actors became close on the “Scary Movie” set, and Charlie wanted to help out a friend. At first Lindsay refused the offer, but recently her business manager did receive a check from Charlie. Lindsay was reportedly touched by Charlie’s help, and did use the money for her taxes which were rumored to be $234,000. Lindsay should hopefully pay Charlie back soon, as she is expected to earn over $2 million dollars this year.
All in all, Lindsay told the magazine that she’s just beginning her comeback: “I’m not going anywhere,” she insisted.
