Lindsay Lohan had a brief stint on Ugly Betty this season, for which she was put on the long list of actresses who might eventually be nominated for a guest actress Emmy. Also sharing that list was Britney Spears, for her How I Met Your Mother spot. Like Katherine Heigl, Lohan has removed her name from the list of actresses in contention for a nomination. Her rep said that “We made a decision to wait” since Lindsay is planned for a 5-episode arc next season. I bet she just couldn’t stand it that Britney might got nominated for an Emmy while she could be left out:
Lindsay Lohan is following in the footsteps of Katherine Heigl by pulling her name from consideration for this year’s Emmy Awards.
Lohan, who made a guest appearance on the season finale of Ugly Betty in May, bowed out in hopes of increasing her chances next year, when she’s scheduled to appear in five episodes as a down-on-luck high school pal of Betty’s.
“The appearance was brief,” a rep for the actress told the Los Angeles Times Tuesday. “We made a decision to wait.”
Ugly Betty creator Silvio Horta raved about Lohan to Usmagazine.com in May.
“She was terrific – a pleasure,” Horta said. “She came in early and was very pleasant.”
[From US Weekly]
US also has quotes from Ugly Betty’s creator about how professional and charming Lohan is. She’s also been praised for showing up on set and actually doing the work for her new film, Labor Pains, in which she plays a young woman who fakes a pregnancy to keep her job. Lindsay has developed a new talent of faking to keep her job, so she surely can relate to her character. At least she’s hanging in there and trying to do her work, but it seems like she shouldn’t get any more chances at this point. There are plenty of brands she could represent and commercials she could do that would be more fitting for her at this stage of her career.
Lindsay Lohan is shown on the set of her I Know Who Knocked Me Up movie, or whatever it’s called, on 6/16/08, thanks to WENN.

TOTAL PR move. I find it funny.
-
Took the words right out of my mouth, Syko. No medals for us. All this time and energy being wasted on someone so unworthy of attention.
-
Thank you Syko, I was thinking the exact same thing. The best that anyone can say about her now is that she’s on time. I notice they don’t say anything about her talent.
-
Who in the cold fires of Hell put her on the list to begin with? Her mommy?
-
She is no actress. It’s a joke to think she was even considered.
-
An Emmy for Lohan? Um, that’ll never happen. Ever.
And yeah, good for her for showing up to work on time & doing her job.
Won’t matter though, I bet this one will flop too
-
Let me look up the definition of “unnecessary.”
I love how her rep said they made a decision to wait. What, wait to lose?
-
Her teeth are tiny little chicklets. They slant inwards.. totally bug me. I guess it’s better than getting crazy horse like veneers though.
I think it’s sad/funny that she was lauded for her acting in The Parent Trap playing twins and then played ‘twins’ or the 2 different characters who looked identical in that bomb “I Know Who Killed Me”. Full circle, no?
-
She looks like the daughter of a chimney sweep.
-
I wish I could get praise like that. Instead I’m told to hop on it. And yes that’s why I’m quitting my job, because I’m no friggin rabbit-slave!
-
good, she doesn’t deserve an emmy anyway.
