Lindsay Lohan will probably give her first interview to Oprah

fp_5696438_lohan_lindsay_fp5_090810

I hate to admit it, but I was wearing a variation on this outfit pretty much everyday back in the early and mid-1990s. Ripped jeans? Check. Blue flannel? Check. Thin white t-shirt over a black bra? Check. Black clogs? Check. In my defense, those were the days when flannel was the height of fashion – everything Seattle-related was cool, and personally, to this day I still appreciate the comfort of those looks. Also in my defense? I was a preteen and teen. Is Lindsay Lohan trying to bring break grunge? If she is, bless her heart. I would honestly welcome a grunge comeback – not so much the “not bathing” aspect – and I always bathed – but the comfort and ease of jeans and flannel. Of course, I never wore unflattering, cameltoe-enhancing skinny jeans with my flannel.

Anyway, you know how disappointed I’ve been that no tabloid has been publishing any of Lindsay Lohan’s Crack Diaries or anything like that? What happened to the million-dollar pay-offs for her post-jail story? Well, it looks like Lindsay might have been holding out for the big one – and I’m not talking money. Radar reports that WHITE Oprah (copyright Michael K) and REAL Oprah are in talks for Lindsay’s first television interview. Oh, White Oprah is loving this.

It looks like Lindsay Lohan is ready to tell her own story. RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively that the troubled Mean Girls star is currently in talks to appear on the Oprah Winfrey Show, which begins its final season on Monday, September 13.

While the deal has been finalized, a source says that talks between Lindsay and Oprah’s team are going well. The outcome is “looking very good” the source said.

“Things are heating up in a good way,” the source added. “Definitely some good conversations. We’re crossing our fingers it works out for Oprah’s last season.”

A source close to Lohan confirmed that the actress is currently weighing her options: “Several entities are being considered, and no decision has been made and won’t be for awhile.”

The Lohan source also said that the show initiated the talks with the actress’ team.

Since leaving treatment at the UCLA Medical Center at the end of August, Lohan has shied away from doing any press. Her last interview was with Vanity Fair, which was conducted shortly before she entered jail in July.

After 25 seasons, Winfrey’s last episode will air on September 9, 2011.

When contacted by RadarOnline.com, a rep for The Oprah Winfrey Show said, “nothing has been planned”; the spokesperson did not deny that talks are underway.

Hide your ice cream cakes, your menthol cigarettes and your crack, Chicago! The Lohans are coming to town! You know Dina is trying to make this happen, and honestly, it’s not the worst thing. Oprah surprised me with a few of her interviews this past season – especially the Rielle Hunter one, in which Oprah did maybe her finest work as an interviewer. She was judgy but not too much – she just let Crazy talk for itself, and Oprah would occasionally call Crazy on its bullsh-t. My fear is that Oprah would not call Lindsay out on her crackhead bullsh-t, but let’s hope that White Oprah gets denied, and Real Oprah is all over that crackhead.

Also – one of you bitches egged Dina’s house last night, according to TMZ. Good work.

    Figures. Oprahs as big a fame whore as Lindsey, and I’m not giving her any benefit of the doubt that she’ll man up and ask tough questions. Since her beginning, my biggest criticism of Oprah has been her slathering obsession with celebrities. This will just inflame Lindsey and her idiotic mother that they are relevant and were “wronged”.

  2. Westcoaster says:

    Forget Lindsay, I would rather see Oprah rip a strip off Dina “White Oprah” Lohan. That would be must see tv!

    Me too, Kaiser! Except I sported the Doc Martens instead of clogs. Sometimes the plaid or maroon Chucks…ah, the good ol’ days.

  4. Innocent says:

    Funny this was tagged under disaster LOL.
    I don’t think it could possibly go any more badly than Paris Hilton’s post jail interview

  5. wunderkindt says:

    I vote for Real Oprah to skewer both Lindsay and Dina Blowhan.

  6. mln says:

    Oprah is the best interviewer because with her new age/self help lingo she always catches people in lies and makes them hang themselves. That Fergie interview was brilliant. I think Oprah is the only person I can imagine getting LL to tell the truth it would have been an ass kissing excerise with anyone else but this I would watch.

  7. dread pirate cuervo says:

    In the early 90’s, my friends & I actually had set days of the week to wear white tshirts over black bras. LOL

    I think Oprah might bring the fire & brimstone on this one, seeing as she’s already got an exit date for her show. But I’m surprised the Big O has to pay people to be her guests. You know the Blohans won’t do it for free.

  8. dread pirate cuervo says:

    Kitten, I too, rocked the Docs & I actually wore my 90’s vintage maroon Chucks to the gym just this morning. (They’re good for weightlifting.)

  9. dorothy says:

    I am at a loss to understand why, if true Oprah would think that Ms. Lohan and her woe’s would be of any interest to anyone. Enough airtime and magazine covers have been spent on the train wreck of a person.

  10. Chris says:

    I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Lilo could be President one day because she embodies everything that the United States stands for. Just like John Holmes did.

  11. lucy2 says:

    I’m surprised there’s money involved too. You’d think Real Oprah would be above that, but I guess she wants that interview, and Lohans want the $$.
    I’d love Real Oprah to rip them both, but I doubt that will happen.

  12. geenie says:

    Oprah is gonna have to fly to California for the interview or Lilo has to wait until December to leave the state. If this Oprah interview helps Lilo’s career, then good for her.

  13. Noname says:

    If she’s giving her first interview to Oprah it’s obviously for publicity only because Oprah doesn’t pay anyone to be on her show, she’s said so herself.

  14. spanks says:

    I dont know why any network would think that anyone would have an interest in anything she has to say say. She lies about everything and is completely delusional, you couldnt pay me to watch anything she is on.
    I also doubt there were that many offers, I think the queen of delusion Dina was ‘reporting’ that thinking it would start the ball rolling on offers.

  15. Sumodo1 says:

    I’d rather take the million from a tabloid than sit with Oprah.

  16. Marie says:

    Kasier, I am lmao about the bitches and egg throwing. Thanks!! Oh by the way keep those nut job Lohans out of Illinois we do not want them here!!

  17. Stronzilla says:

    What would be great would be Oprah vs. Dina and Lindsay with an surprise intervention ambush by Dr. Phil. If Oprah does land the gig, Papa Blowhan will do something to try and horn in on it.

  18. kelbear says:

    Lindsay will probably be just like her mother and beat around the bush on every question she is asked. How much is Lindsay really going to say?

  19. soxfan says:

    I remember a blind item a few years ago which stated that Oprah would never invite a certain drunk and very rude starlet again to her show. It was widely thought at the time to be LL.

  20. original kate says:

    exactly what is the point of interviewing lohan? she always says the same things:

    – i work so hard.
    – i am a talented actress.
    – it’s my father’s fault.
    – it’s the judge’s fault.
    – i was wrongly prescribed adderall.
    – i am not a drug addict/alcoholic.
    – my scram bracelet malfunctioned.
    – all people my age go to clubs.
    – i hardly ever go to clubs.
    – i want to direct.

  21. Bodhi says:

    Oh I would watch that shit in a heart beat! Oprah would rip LL & her idjit mom up one side & down the other!!

  22. Tia C says:

    What exactly is the point of interviewing her? Every interview is the same. As original kate so succinctly summed it up, she always gives the same pat (and patently untrue) answers every single time.

    Ignoring her sorry ass would be so much more fun.

    Oh, and she looks hideous in that outfit.

  23. Madisyn says:

    “Hide your ice cream cakes, your menthol cigarettes and your crack,
    Chicago! The Lohans are coming to town!”

    That quote could be a little jingle, if only someone with musical talent could put music to it!

  24. BethL says:

    I doubt that Oprah paid for the interview. She never had in the past. Oprah still has prestige so the Lohans may want that over money.

  25. beebee says:

    @kate,
    You forgot the phrase “college years”.

  26. GT says:

    Just as I’m rooting for Brittney I’m also rooting for Lindsey. I can’t imagine growing up in Hollywood, with all that money, all those drugs & parties, people giving you everything, and not coming out of it unscathed??? Come on!!! It would take a hell of a person with some serious self control to not be affected. I hope she has a seriously epic comeback.
