Dina Lohan has graciously taken the credit for the marginally funny eHarmony spoof that Lindsay filmed for FunnyOrDie.com (shown above):
“The hype is ridiculous so we decided to kind of make fun of it,” Dina tells ET about the Funny or Die video starring Lindsay. “I said ‘Lindsay let’s just do funnyordie.com and just kind of make fun of it all.’ It’s really gotten out of hand, the rumors and everything that they’re saying about myself and my children.”
Well, first of all, most of that hype is coming from Lindsay personally.
Second, what kills me is that Dina is there to claim credit for basically the only acting work Lindsay has gotten in two years.
What could be holding Lindsay back from getting more work, I wonder? Could it be her legendary partying habits, which mean it’s next to impossible to insure her on the set of a film? In that case, shouldn’t Dina cop to enabling her alcoholic daughter by dropping her off at L.A. club Bardot, just days after her public and very humiliating breakup with Samantha Ronson? Was that Dina’s idea too?
Despite such irresponsibility being caught on videotape, I’m sure only Dina would have the chutzpah to call that “rumors and everything that they’re saying about myself.”

i may be the only one but whatever, i honestly didn’t find this “ad” that funny. i was thinking the entire time “bitch this is the most work you’ve gotten in a LONG time and you will loose a hand before you become 100% sober” and maybe i shouldn’t make fun of lindsay because well.. look at her parents? who can she learn from? it’s sad.
I agree, it’s a little too raw to be genuinely funny. Isn’t it too soon to be joking about this? And is that why she looks so heavily medicated?
There is a blind item floating around about how a family is going to stage an intervention for their out of control actress daughter, even consulting another family who went through the same situation. It seems pretty obvious it was about Lilo because, let’s face it, you know Michael wants to get hold of her money before Lindsay blows it all on cocaine and leggings. Sadly, Michael and Dina are even bigger scum bags than the Spears clan – however impossible that seems. It would be great if there were someone in her life that actually cared about Lindsay as a person and not a meal ticket.
I read the legging business is quite profitable… not like making a million or two per movie, but she’d probably be comfortable if she didn’t blow it all, pun intended.
“before lindsay blows it all on cocaine and leggings” hahaha!
and holly, i too think it is a little soon to be joking about all that stuff she was trying to make funny in the video.. because for all we know it can happen all over again! wouldn’t surprise me at all! she does look medicated.. like almost REALLY tired.
Jrod would still hit it, though.
I remember reading at some point on Tomato Nation that there’s some sort of theoretical fame equation. This equation essentially means that by the time you’re a household name, you’ve become able, financially, to fire and replace anyone who tells you something you don’t want to hear. (See: Presley, Elvis; Jackson, Michael.) I mean, true, Lilo is probably madly stapling the ankles of those leggings shut to make them more efficient blowholders, but she’s still famous enough that we know who she is and care enough to post about it. And as Queen Bee said, she’s apparently still got enough coin for Mumsy and Daddums to fight over.
Those two need to be cut all over and used for chum.
Would’nt bother me if Lohan & Spears disappeared down the digital trapdoor…never to fame whore again.
I didn’t find it funny either. I think she sounds bitter. And vindictive. I bet she agreed to film this thing just to spite that Sam girl/boy.
*Sigh*
A mother’s work is never done.
Sad……….look at her eyes…….there’s nobody home. And the people who marketed her to the public and left her to twist in the wind like this need to be buried up to their necks in a fire ant hill. Don’t get me wrong, I am so not a fan of Lilo’s, but she is a manufactured product and someone created her this way. She’s old enough to know better by now, but also those who did this also need to pay the consequences too.
I watched it and I find the whole thing sad. I just don’t find it funny. Over all, she needs some help. Right now, she’s a sad SNL parody of herself.
This is from a 2006 article:
The comedienne behind Lindsay Lohan’s most famous movie role staged an intervention when the two met on the set of satirical show Saturday Night Live last week (ends14APR06) in a bid to convince the actress to give up her wild child life. Tina Fey, who wrote Mean Girls and starred alongside Lohan in the dark comedy, joined forces with other SNL regulars to chat to the teenager about her party lifestyle and what it’s doing to her health. A show insider tells American publication Life & Style, “They brought up everything – nothing was off-limits. Tina told her she was wasting her gift of acting.” Meanwhile, cast member Kenan Thompson reveals, “You just gotta say, ‘Sometimes you shouldn’t be doing that; you gotta drop that.’”Lohan’s aides insist there was no intervention, but something was amiss at the after show party on Saturday night (15APR06) when the actress appeared to refuse to mingle with the SNL cast. SNL creator Lorne Michaels reportedly staged a similar intervention the last time she guest hosted the weekly show in May, 2005.
In other words, this has been going on for years and Dina has been saying, “Oh gosh, young girls party, it’s no big deal,” just as long. That’s what happens when mom is best friend/manager as opposed to mom. Oh, and when mom has a cocaine habit as well.
If only that weren’t a parody, I would have all new respect for her. It would demonstrate that Lilo had some kind of fundamental self-awareness. You know, the kind that makes you occasionally look at yourself and say, “God, I am a trainwreck.” Or, in my case, “Damn, how did I get so handsome?”
I thought it was a real ad ,because everything she said was the true.
It’s all good and fine, but what I really would like to know is this: What have you internet trolls done to Chronic? I haven’t seen her post in a while and I miss her.
Chronic, come back! *cries*
Lawd, I miss her too!
And Vagrant Dog: Snerk!
When it comes to Michelle-bashing, I think the three of us (Beige, Chronic and myself) make a great team. We miss you, Chronic.
And it was supposed to be “what I would really like to know” in one of my previous posts. I now reverse the order of the words in my sentences, too
I tried to picture Mom making fun of my breakups and loneliness and then making me do it publicly, and I can’t.
For that, I pity Lilo.
You know, there’s probably no worse punishment than waking up every morning and having to realize afresh that she is, in fact, still Dina Lohan, and was not magically transformed into a polyp overnight. Much to her sorrow, and to ours.
I am going to admit right up front that I thought the ad was great. Whether it happened out of desperation or a sense of humor, and I suspect it’s a bit of both, doesn’t matter. I thought it was hilarious that she would actually address the crazy in such detail in this jokey ad.
At the same time, I find it a bit sad that Dina Lohan, famewhore, is still out to steal her kid’s thunder, especially given that it’s a funnyordie.com video, which isn’t exactly an actual acting job. I also find it appalling that her mother would want credit for this, because I know that if I were in Lindsay’s position and did something like this, my parents would happily beat my 35 year old ass for it. Then again, I’m not in that position because my parents are still willing to do that if they deem it necessary.
Chronic, baby! We were just assembling a search party!
I really think that the Lohan’s could learn a thing or two from Jamie Spears. Not the mom, but the dad. He really stepped up to the plate and helped Brittany. Sure, there is still some problems, but compared to before, this is nothing. The best thing for Lindsay would be for her to divorce both her parents and just get out of that situation. They are both enabling her and soon they will not have this daughter to mooch off of any longer.
What is she drinking there? A bottle of semen?
CHRONIC!!!!! You are back! Beige and I were bemoanig your absence the other day in this very thread…but I guess you’ve already seen that. Now you probably think I’m a stalkerish creep with no life. And you are so right…
Awwwwwwww, I feel loved! I was away for the weekend at a cousin’s wedding, but I’m back, I promise. I never leave here for long.
I actually only read the comments now, Beige and Nati. LOL. You know how sometimes, when you go away for a few days, you come back to a world of busy? I’ve been catching up on a lot of the comments today.
Actually, I’m parked outside Chronic’s home right now. I like your hair.
Heh.
I am so kidding.
LMAO, Beige! Darn, I thought my hair was looking nice today too…
Hee.
About the Lindsay thing–there was a time when Lindsay was at least relatively fresh-faced. Now, at what? Twenty-three? She puts me in mind of that apt but horrible phrase, “rode hard and put away wet”. It originally applied to horses, and still does, but…ewww.
Old girl is lookin’ rough, is what I’m saying. At this rate, if she lives long enough, she’ll look and sound exactly like one of Marge Simpson’s sisters by the time she hits 35. And that’s the optimistic estimate.
Oooohhh I see how it is! Beige, you decided to one-up me and tried to ambush Chronic near her home behind my back! Well, that’s not gonna work, because I won’t be outdone! I am now hiding in the bushes under Chronic’s window. And now I will serenade her *clears throat*
Me muero de amor si no estas
Me muero y no puedo esperar
A que vuelvas de nuevo aqui
Junto a mi, con tus comments…
I couldn’t fit in “comentarios” here, so I used the English word. I totally suck
But hey, at least I’ve been trying to improve on my language skills in your absence (that’s a lie, I totally stole this song from Natalia Oreiro, just changed a few words. My Spanish language skills still rank on par with Gwyneth’s)
But on a serious note, Beige, I agree, Lindsay used to look pretty. And now she looks pretty scary. Her face is way too wrinkled for someone her age. Can you believe this is the same girl?
http://www.hollywoodtoday.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/a-lindsay_lohan.jpg
I can’t. It only took her a couple years to go from that to what she looks like now.
LMAO, Nati! I was going to release the hounds until I heard your angelic voice floating on a wave of ethereal… stuff, drift into my window.
And naw, I think you may have edged passed Gwynnie with the song. I don’t have roses to throw out the window, so will some oregano do? 
But yeah, folks… she is looking pretty rough. Drugs will do that.
California Dave knows what’s up! Are you kidding me? I love to party out of control, we’d get along just fine…and clean up each others puke..
(actually, I am sure she has people to do that for us…)
I am coming #612679!!!
I’ve said it before, Jrod, and I’ll say it again…when hitting this one, make sure you keep the casing on the sausage.
lol, Chronic, oregano will do just fine. In fact, just not getting my ass kicked for stalking and, especially, singing is good enough for me.
