Note that this is Celebitchy writing this, not Kaiser (I hate talking about myself in the third person and with my stage name, but it seems fitting here.) Kaiser took a rare afternoon off or I know she would love to cover this news. Well Lindsay and her people have been bragging about how she got a real job despite the fact that she’s uninsurable and and incredible liability in that she didn’t show up to work back when she was much more sober than she is. No one knows when and for how long Lindsay will be going to jail (I’m an optimist and am not going to write “if” she’s going) and when she’ll get into trouble next. Her dad went to prison with John Gotti’s son, though, and used his mafia ties to get his trainwreck daughter a role. Who knows what kind of favors the Gottis owed the Lohans.
Lindsay was set to play a “younger” Victoria Gotti, she had Victoria’s blessing and everything despite looking older and harder than she does. However the very guy who just sung Lindsay’s praises, producer Marc Fiore, totally backtracked and said she’s not in at all. He told People that they’re looking to recast that part and it sounds like Lindsay’s team (i.e. her mom and dad) were difficult as hell to deal with. The last director is rumored to have been adamantly opposed to hiring Lindsay, and he recently left so the door was wide open for her, but she swung it shut with her grossly inflated sense of entitlement, just as she’s done her entire career.
“We are not talking any further about Lindsay playing Victoria,” says Marc Fiore, producer of Gotti: Three Generations. “She is no longer being considered. The talks have stopped. We are going to meet with other people [for the role].”
But just last week, it seemed almost a sure thing when Lohan popped up at the movie’s April 12 press conference and looked strikingly like Victoria Gotti. Even John Travolta, who’s playing Gotti Sr., in the yet-to-be-made flick said, “I always thought she was gorgeous and talented.”
So is Lohan just too expensive and troublesome to insure with all of her past legal troubles?
For now it’s omerta for Fiore, who would not explain why she’s been “bumped off.”
“She a wonderful person,” he tells PEOPLE. “Her legal case has nothing to do with it. We just couldn’t reach terms.”
[From People]
TMZ has more, including the detail that “the various demands of her management team just got out of control” and another quote from the producer that “I will only ride a merry-go-round with my kids.” He added that “Maybe if Lindsay calls me up, we can talk about it,” but you know he only did that to appease the Gottis. Or because Lindsay did him a ton of “favors” to get the part and he feels guilty about it. He’s sick of her merry go round in so many ways.
This girl’s career was over a few years ago. When even her dad’s prison mob connections can’t score her a role as a woman she resembles remarkably in both looks and character, (no offense to Victoria Gotti) you know there’s no hope for her.

Instead of being grateful for the job offer and reasonable with a contract, the diva Lohan team must have demanded salary and perks to suit a real star with a major role. SNAFU.
The producer may only be using Lindsay as a PR tool for the movie.

How in the world can she land a movie roll when it’s possible she will be going to jail. I think Lindsey and her crazy family keep lighting these fires in the media to make it seems as though movie execs are interested. It’s all a desperate ploy from her camp. Pathethic if you ask me. Hey, BTW where’s Michael been lately. Haven’t seen or heard anything from him the last couple of weeks. Such a joke…..

Seriously, Jackson. She should consider herself lucky to just be working and getting paid at all. Her “management team” was probably trying to get her a deal that would ensure that LL would net enough so that her entire family could live in the lap of luxury for the next 5 years or so. Humble and grateful is not in the vocabulary of that family.

Guess this blows all that “wishful casting” out of the water huh.
Would anyone even know Marc Fiore’s name right now if hadn’t been for Lindsay? Or heard anything about the Linda Lovelace movie?
People have been using her name for publicity for years she’s just too stupid to realize it. All you have to do is say “Lindsay Lohan” and everyone freaks out going: NO! Not Lindsay…she’ll ruin it! And you get free PR and website hits for your project. A few years ago it was the Scary Spice chick that had that Vegas/Pussycat Doll show and even Ryan Seacrest. And let’s not forget Ungaro…would anyone be talking about their collection if wasn’t for Lindsay’s just stick a red sparkly heart on it and call it good failure.
Nowadays it’s just the lowest of the low bottom of the barrel types that are trying it (Tyler Shields). I guess all you have to do is just suck up really hard to her and tell how she’s so hot and such a talented actress to get anything you want out of her. Kinda like the slow kid at school that always got talked into eating paste. She lost control of her brand a long time ago.
If she doesn’t get a grip on things soon the last movie she’ll be in is the creepy Sham Wow guys comedy cause he told her she looks just like Marilyn. Pathetic.

Maybe it was all a scam from the beginning and they just took her on for publicity which she is always good for.
I just thought it was strange that she was even there, when nothing was confirmed yet.
It makes both parties look less credible, if this project is even serious to begin with…….

This project will be direct to DVD at best. The only legit player in this whole mess was Nick Cassavettes, who apparently was all “F*ck this LL bullshit, I don’t need to sully my credentials with coke freckles.” Everyone else (other than Travolta but it’s not like he’s done a good movie in the last decade) was nothing more than a no-name con artist posing as professional film makers.
The funny thing is, I’m sure Lindsay could have very well had the part. IF she hadn’t crash the press conference, uninvited, posed for pictures like the ink had already BEEN dry on the contracts. IF she was actually not in denial, surrounded by enablers and hangers-ons, and serious about recovery and work. IF her “management team” wasn’t a bunch of losers and users who told her hold out for more money than she’s been worth in years. It’s not like this is a star studded cast being backed by big Hollywood movers and shakers. She could have very well locked down the part, proved us all wrong, done a good job with the role, acted respectfully and with humility. But, alas, she’s an addict, a narcissist and an entitled brat who can’t keep it together for a millisecond. As shady as this project was, it could have at least been a notch on her comeback belt. But she blew it. Guess she’s not good for more than blowing producers and doing blow…

I am waiting for Mama Crackhead to run to Inside Edition and tell them that Lindsay isn’t in the movie because Lindsay chose not to be in the movie. Mama Crackhead to Billy Bush: “As much as Lindsay loves Victoria Gotti and John Travolta, and although the entire Gotti family really wanted her in the film as did the director and all of the producers, Lindsay decided now is not the right time for her to agree to any movie deals with such a well known cast. She is very committed to her sobriety right now and going to church. Linds is afraid to break the cycle of AA and church. Does she miss work? Of course, but right now is just not the time for such a big production. Lindsay is all about church and AA and she is waiting for our heavenly father to let her know when a good time will be to get back major films, like her Disney hit Mean Girls. I know everyone loves Mean Girls and Lindsay and we all can’t wait until she is back on the screen, but now just isn’t the time.”

I just feel sorry for her now. It’s really lost it’s humor. She is in no position to demand anything and should just be happy someone is willing to work with her at all at this point. Insuring her will be hard enough, but Robert Downey Jr was insured after his prison stint and look where he is now. It seems impossible she will turn this around but everyone said the same thing when RDJ was arrested at a cheap motel on Washington Blvd.

Lindsay and Michael Lohan have already released a statement to Radar Online:
“Marc Fiore, executive producer of the upcoming Gotti: Three Generations confirmed the news to RadarOnline: “Lindsay is not going to be in the movie. Her playing Victoria Gotti is off the table. There is zero chance that Lindsay will be in the movie, negotiations are done. ”
Lindsay completely disagrees with this. When asked if it was true that she’s out of the film, the 24-year-old Mean Girls star told a RadarOnline reporter, “Not done. No.”
Lindsay’s father Michael Lohan railed against her management team. “For anyone on Lindsay’s team to negotiate themselves out of the deal is insane. This could only help re-launch her career to work with the likes of someone like John Travolta, Marc Fiore and the Gotti Family. Her team has screwed up enough of her career already. It’s time for Lindsay to take the reins and control her own destiny.””

Great rant. Anything that KimK is in talks for is a train wreck from conception. The funny thing to me about this “entitled brat” is that she is actually famous because she originally had some talent, auditioned and was hired on her own merit (I assume cuz she was too young for the couch). She doesn’t have a celebrity Mommy and Daddy like the Smith brats or Emma Roberts ad nausium etc etc. I want to feel sorry for her. I ocasionally do. But not in this story.

The biggest loser here is John Travolta. His career is dead. And there he was in a mob movie probably thinking that it will be as cool as Casino. And there was acclaimed director Nick Cassavetes… And then came Lohan…. And here he is –
Cassavetes run off as soon as he heard that those crazy producers want to hire Lohan for real. Movie that supposed to resurrect Travolta’s career officially become joke. Everyone laughs from it. Joe Pesci probably will be next who will run off from that sinking ship.
And Lohan now supposed to play role that Kim Kardashian auditioned for!!!
I can’t even. And poor John can’t run off. Because this is his Big Role.
And then the fact that most probably that movie won’t even be shot. I can’t see any studio to give millions and millions of dollars for Lohan movie. When you can guarantee that this idiot will start to show up late or drunk on work. And between shots she will have to go to her court appearances. Or jails. And add the fact that movie will bomb at the box-office. Because obviously.
Mark my words. That movie will not be shot. They have to start shoot in October. But most probably it will be delayed.
