Here’s a story that will warm your cockles this holiday season: Lindsay Lohan wasn’t even in the country when she claimed she saved 40 children as part of an upcoming BBC documentary on child slave labor in India. (What makes this even better is that she accused everyone else in the universe of shallowness and superficiality for not being as awesome at charity as she is now.)
The U.K. Telegraph has the whole story:
A leading social activist and lawyer, known only as Bhuwan, of the campaign group Bachpan Bachao Andolan, accused Lohan of portraying dangerous child rescue operations as superficial events, which could be carried out in a day by passing celebrities.
The raids, which involved two months of planning by local police and magistrates, were on 15 workshops in central New Delhi where children as young as seven were making mirrored ornaments for export. Some of the children said the traffickers had paid their parents 2,000 rupees (£25), while other parents had handed over their children for promises of payments which were not made. …
According to Bhuwan, they were freed on Tuesday, hours before Lohan arrived in India and a day before she and her BBC Three film crew visited the Ashram rehabilitation centre where the children were taken before being returned to their families. “She was not even in the country when this raid happened,” he said.
“We’ll be complaining to the BBC and talking to our lawyers.”
Way to take credit, there, Linds. Stick with what you’re good at, like making out with married men.

Well, that and looking like one of the outtakes from “Death Becomes Her”. Ye gods, that photo is enough to put anybody off their feed. How polluted did she have to be, to think it was okay to leave the house looking like that?
Sorry, I know her appearance is nowhere near the point, here. It’s just…well, look at her.
Lindsay’s thoughts “Oh my, this hair color sure does make me look washed out. Hmm… Maybe if I throw on a pastel pink jacket to match my hair… No, that doesn’t work either. Oh, I know, I’ll just cake my face in bronzer to make my washed out skin look more lively.” She’d have to be high.
My first thought was WTF is wrong with her skin, the crypt-keeper has better skin.
Sad thing is she isn’t even 25.
She’s only 23 and she looks older than I do at 49. That’s what crack/meth will do to you. That and being a redhead who bakes in the sun at every opportunity doesn’t help.
Geez, she looks terrible! After that picture I am tempted to take some money out of the kids college fund and put it on her in a celebrity death pool.
Eww… Very, VERY bad picture of her. I guess this happen when your liver tells you to go screw yourself.
Just damn. What a lying heap of hell she has become.
Courtney Love, you better watch your back! There’s a new Living Dead Skank in town!!
She looks like she was in a fight with a makeup truck.
I hope she and the BBC at least funded some of the work done by the group, but it doesn’t sound like it, if the organization is that upset with them. Completely bizarre.
Also, what is WRONG with parents that they would sell their child? I realize they are impoverished, but sell yourself before you sell your child. People like that should be sterilized and imprisoned. Poverty is no excuse.
I tried to read the article but that picture took it all away. Holy crap! She looks older than my mom! And she wants to be a role model? To who? Mortitians?
On a side note – why am I not surprised that she lied about saving the children? Have you met her parents or even read anything on her?
I really wish that this Friday-worthy pic of LiLo had not been selected by you guys; it takes all attention off her deceit and puts it on her appearance.
As for her deceit–what a SKAG! As for her picture–what a SKAG!
I suppose this makes her eligible for the Nobel Peace Prize. After all, it’s not always about what you actually do, it’s about your intentions! It’s such a feel good thingy! heHE!! Isn’t that what life is about? FEEEEEEEELING GOOD?! *giggle*
oopslookatthetime… please excuse me while I go Hoover a 4 foot rail of chalk off the tusk of a poached elephant. I’d rather not, but I’m fresh out of needles.
…
Sorry… looks like I was having a Lohan Moment™ there.
*straightens tie, wiggles head, and walks on as if nothing happened*
She looks like she lost a fight with Homer Simpson’s make-up firing shotgun.
But hey! Now she can do a movie like Monster without needing FAKE bad skin!
She looks like Courtney Love in this pic, except older.
I’m tired of making fun of this dimwit. We need some new celebrity types to begin a downward spiral. I’m looking at you Kristen Stewart.
This is so wrong in so very many ways that I can’t even count them.
lindsay STFU, go to rehab, and stay there. kthx.
What did anyone expect – drug abuse leads to delusional thoughts and actions.
Word in the biz – she’ll never get work – as they can’t find anyone to cover the surety…
….dang, she makes me want to reverse my lasic.
I think Lindsay should either join PETA, or appeal to them for some of that 24/7 Photoshopping support they provide for their cult members.
