Lindsay Lohan “shows up 2 hours late and rarely knows her lines” on ‘Liz & Dick’

As everyone predicted, the production of Lifetime’s Liz & Dick is an unmitigated disaster. All of us knew it would be, and it’s nice that Lindsay Lohan shows consistency in one thing: being an inconsistent, cracked-out trainwreck of a human being. I believe the entire shoot of Liz & Dick was supposed to consist of about four or five weeks of filming. Barely two weeks had gone by before Lindsay 1) flashed her nips for the scores of paparazzi she had invited to the set, 2) drove herself around in violation of the terms of her insurance policy, 3) Got into a cracked-out accident that was completely her fault, 4) Lied to the police about the accident, which alone could trigger a violation of her probation, 5) Attempted to call in sick because she had been partying so hard, only to have the producers call her out and send doctors and an ambulance, 6) Lied AGAIN about her schedule and how hard she‘s been working. And that’s just the stuff we know about, you know?

So, a few days ago Deadline reported that the unions are now getting involved after Lindsay made her cracked-out claims of working “85 hours in 4 days”. The union investigations found that the average week consisted of 70-75 hours of work spread out over five or six days, and that’s just for the non-actors. Besides all of that, people involved with the production have now started running to the tabloids to complain about Lindsay’s crackie work ethic, her temper tantrums and her diva behavior. Oh, and her “Dick” hates her too:

Word from the set of ‘Liz & Dick’ is that Lindsay Lohan is clashing with her costar Grant Bowler. Apparently, she was biased against Grant from the beginning, having delusionally believed her own star power was worthy of leading men like Gerard Butler, Robert Downey Jr., Mark Wahlberg and even Brad Pitt.

Consequently, she’s been so mean to Grant that her comeback is in jeopardy.

“The crew is fed up with Lindsay because they have to spend so much time dealing with her diva antics and, in turn, trying to soothe Grant’s battered ego,” says our source.

[From Star Magazine, print edition]

Poor Grant Bowler. You know he had no idea what he was in for when he signed up for this mess. The Enquirer had a bitchy story too:

Lindsay Lohan has been a nightmare on the set of ‘Liz & Dick’ and everyone is working round-the-clock to finish the film before she self-destructs, sources say. Lohan is often late, can’t concentrate and flubs her lines, insiders say.

“Most days she shows up two hours late and she rarely knows her lines. A production assistant has to feed them to her,” said a set insider. “She’s completely unfocused and she keeps running over to the director, but he doesn’t have a clue how to handle her. The footage so far has been just awful.”

Meanwhile, the film’s producer Larry A. Thompson is trying to keep his concerns in check, said the insider.

“He had a hell of a time obtaining insurance for the shoot and is on tenderhooks every day that something is going to happen to Lindsay,” explained the insider. “If that’s the case, they’ll have to shut down the production!”

The producer said he was forced to buy pricey insurance for Lindsay since she’s done five different stints in drug rehab. Filmmakers cringed when Lindsay slammed her Porsche into a truck on June 8, and the accident is being investigated and it could lead to her probation being revoked.

Said the insider: “If the judge rules that she violated her parole and sends her to jail, Lifetime is looking at a $5 to $6 million washout.”

[From The Enquirer, print edition]

So… she’s hours late to the set, she’s too crackie to learn her lines and she basically just wanders around, strung out or high. And shockingly, “The footage so far has been just awful.” Yes, that’s something we aren’t talking about enough – even if you get past all of the stories about the Cracken being such a mess and such a disaster, it’s not like anyone can say “But it’s worth it because she’s putting all of the good stuff on the screen.” She’s not. The TV movie is going to suck too. Oh, well. We tried warning you, Lifetime. When you lay down with crackie dogs… you wake up with crackheads.

    damn, that first pic is…

    I have no words :O

    • beyonce's bump says:

      hahaha that first pic tho. lol

    • I.want.shoes says:

      Somebody please reassure me: her face in that 3rd picture… it’s a latex prosthesis, right?!

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        I’ve been looking on my retina screen and I don’t think so. Her frontal shot looks like her, the fur coat shots show the bloat, we’ve been seeing it for a while.
        I’m pretty sure it’s HER, just without Ariel’s weave to hide it.

      • Miffy says:

        No, those are shots from Lindsay’s portrayal of Liz’s geriatric years circa this: http://bit.ly/NrdDCy

      • Samigirl says:

        Totally just the makeup to make her look older. Annnnd it’s working. Bless her heart, that is NOT a pretty face.

      • KardASSian Butt says:

        It’s bloat. My reaction was similar “Is that supposed to be ‘fat Liz’?” but then I noticed the body isn’t fat. That is what the hair normally hides.

        When Goldie Hawn was 55 she recommended long hair and bangs for older women – hides the (pre-Botox era) forehead and the neck.

        I never thought I would be quoting Goldie after seeing a 25 year old. I was saving Goldie’s advice for when I was 55.

    • Kit says:

      For me, it’s the third picture. It’s not pretty…

    • corny says:

      cracken mcducklips~
      I guess she is the Dick in Liz and Dick cause she sure doesn’t vaguely resemble taylor even in her crypt

    • arock says:

      this is my favorite pic of LL ever. ever.

      it is cracktabulous.

      truly made my day.

    • bluhare says:

      No kidding. Kaiser, that shot REALLY needs to be your new go-to photo of Lindsay. It says it all.

    • deep says:

      LMAO! That first pic!

      How does someone so young look so old? Girlfriend looks really bad.

    • Sweettart says:

      Sadly, this is the first photo I’ve seen of her where she actually *does* look like Liz Taylor.

      An actress in her mid 20’s to so closely look like one in late middle age . . . not good.

      Lindsay’s doing what she’s always done. Lifetime only has themselves to blame. Do they still think her notoriety is worth it?

      You would think that by this point even Lilo’s enablers would recognize that the course she’s on is unsustainable.

      The fact that even beyond her normal drama that she somehow managed to top that and get production in trouble with the unions . . . there are just no words.

      • KardASSian Butt says:

        She looks just like “Liz Taylor” as I knew her. To me “Liz Taylor” is some fat Senator’s wife that was all over my mom’s gossip magazines when I was a little girl. My mom said she USED TO BE a “movie star” but I didn’t really believe her.

        http://i.ebayimg.com/00/$(KGrHqIOKigE3Bpj+POeBN09h()q1Q~~_35.JPG

        I’ve yet to see a movie with “Elizabeth Taylor” but in my mind they are two different people. “Elizabeth” is the movie star that I never saw and “Liz” is the tabloid joke of my childhood who eventually rehabilitated herself as an activist but by then I was a teen and seeing her with MJ did not give her much cred in my eyes.

      • Annie says:

        IMO she actually looks worse than boozy late 70’s “Liz Taylor”. I guess trainwrecks these days have much stronger drugs availiable to them so they can mess themselves up double quick, stuff like meth and designer opiates.

      • Niamh says:

        @ KardAssianbutt – you need to see Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Liz Taylor and Paul Newman, the most beautiful couple ever to grace the screen together. She is so beautiful in it.
        Also Who’s Afraid of Virginia Wolf if you’re doubting her acting chops. She was one of the real movie stars, whatever your mum said doesn’t change that.

    • Trashaddict says:

      Whoa! Who got a hold of the negatives from Bride of Frankenstein?!

    • Taterbug says:

      Wow. I’m not one to rag on people either, but why does her face looks so round in that first pic?? I thought she might have a fat suit on…

      God she’s a wreck. She’s never going to change.. I just cant with her anymore.. I had a tinge of hope with this role.. but again she has let us all down.. TRASH.

  2. beyonce's bump says:

    …..why are we constantly getting bamboozled with the news from cracken’s set? who is really surprised or interested at this point?

    • OhMyMy says:

      I don’t even care if the stories are true or not at this point. We’re all just so used to them it’s like reading a daily comics strip.

    • Rhea says:

      Yup. come on, this is not something new anymore!

    • NYC_girl says:

      People like watching other people self-destruct and fall from grace. If she was doing a great job, nobody would care.

      • Canda says:

        It’s not that she’s “falling” from grace, she’s already fallen and is rolling around in the mire insisting that she’s still up where she used to be, and that’s what piques everyone’s attention and makes them want to point and laugh.

      • Str8Shooter says:

        Is it really that people love to watch her ‘fall from grace?’ Honestly??

        Doesn’t one have to HAVE grace to fall from it??

        She is an unprofessional little bitch who has had more chances than anyone would deserve in Hollywood. Hell, in life in general!

    • KardASSian Butt says:

      Because it’s time for Friday afternoon cracktinis!

      • Genevieve says:

        I am right there with you on how I view Elizabeth Taylor. I remember shots of her w/ MJ in People Magazine, and details of her divorce from some trashy looking construction worker with achey-breaky hair. To me, she is the pitch woman for “White Diamonds”. I honestly view her through the eyes of my mother, who referred to her as, “That Hollywood trash who broker up Debbie Reynolds marriage”. To me, she was never someone to be revered.

        But nobody deserves this craptacular, watered down treatment of their life, by the equally craptastic Lifetime Network. And dear God…to be portrayed by the sad, multiple rehab refugee, train wreck of a crackassed Lindsay Lohan?! NOBODY should have to suffer that.

        Will I watch this hot mess, if it ever actually makes it to the small screen? I’d like to say no. But I probably will. If the incendiary flame that is Blowhan doesn’t manage to snuff herself out before filming ends. From my perspective, it feels like Lindsay is on her last leg.

  3. StopItLuke says:

    I can’t wait to see this cracktastrophe lol

    • Elizabeth says:

      Actually neither can I! I don’t have a TV but I may go over to a friend’s house for this disaster.

      But I love Elizabeth Taylor. Such a classy lady and now this horrible movie is happening to her memory. Terrible.

      • daisydoodle says:

        Elizabeth Taylor wasn’t that classy, she had her problems, like stealing her best friend’s husband, so please don’t make her something she wasn’t

  4. Kloops says:

    No sympathy for the idiots who hired her. They knew what they were getting. Wow, her face is hideous. Kids, don’t do drugs! Let this train wreck be a cautionary tale.

    • Susan says:

      Exactly!

    • Deven says:

      You are SO right!!

    • duncecap says:

      Errytime I see Lindsay it makes me want to do something healthy and detox: eat all my fruits&veggies, slather on the sunscreen, drink green tea, get my 8hrs of sleep.

      Thank you, Blohan.

      • Stellax2 says:

        I co-sign! I’m 40 and she’s a wreck. These posts are reminders to take good care of myself and watch out for my friends and family for any signs of abuse (addiction runs in the fam).
        I look better than she does and I’ve had sun damage from my more youthful days 🙂 however I took corrective action by slathering on sunblock, wearing a hat, seeing my derm doc and taking very good care of my skin.
        I don’t know what doc’s prescribe this kid drugs but I find it appalling. And her crack habits and alcohol abuse are awful. She suffers from addiction which is a legitimate disease but she definitely has a personality disorder which distorts her reality. Does she realize that she’s the laughing stock of the community of which she’s dying to be a part of? She has no humility and suffers no consequence.
        It’s just another day in crackie’s world.

      • dallasite40 says:

        When i see her, I’ve got to go look in the mirror to see my 45 yo face and make sure I don’t have dillusions of looking good for my age.

        Maybe she had a form of Body Dysmorphic Disorder where she sees herself as youthful looking and fresh as a daisy!!! Let’s call it, “Facial Crackmorphic Disorder” or “Lohan Disorder”.Submitted by Scott in NYC on Fri, 06/22/2012 – 10:07pm.
        Grow up….he’s a dancer and is most likely totally comfortable around gay guys. Besides, who cares? If he and JLo have a relationship that works for them, then that’s all that matters. She’s way too smart to be taken advantage of and she always knows what she’s doing.

    • Scout says:

      Totally agree! Whoever made THAT decision should be tarred and feathered. What a dis to Liz Taylor!

  5. marie says:

    *sigh* another day, another cracked filled tantrum.. but wow, her face is REALLY bloated..

    • TheOriginalKitten says:

      I didn’t even recognize her in the first pic. Is this fillers? What is she doing to her face????
      It’s not even funny to me anymore, just very very disturbing…

  6. Lilalis says:

    And then she showed up extra bloated. She looks awful.

    Well I guess they wanted the publicity that comes with the Cracken, not realizing that there are many cracked out reasons for that publicity.

  7. TheOriginalTiffany says:

    Elizabeth Taylor looks better than this now.

    As in, been dead for a bit…

    Her face looks like a triple chinned balloon, her tits go all the way to her belt, she looks pregnant and should never wear short hair.

    C’mon, death party. When do we start some pools?
    We have to have something to really bitch and moan about and we get a Blohan AND Rimes post in one morning? Comedic gold, that is.

    • the original bellaluna says:

      We should really check out the celeb death pools online and see what they’re saying.

      With that face, I don’t think she’s too much longer for this world.

      Of course, she is a crackroach, with the tolerance of Keith Richards, so…

      • Blen says:

        LOL @ “crackroach”

      • Sean says:

        I have had her in my death pool for the last 8 years. She keeps letting me down. She is worth a lot of points too. We score by age. Britney Murphy got me a last minute win a few years ago.

    • erika says:

      i’ll do a death pool! I’ve always said here that we should make our predictions on how she’s going to make her final exit from earth…cause it’s coming soon

      • Stellax2 says:

        I wouldn’t be surprised if she winds up killing or maiming someone badly as in irrefutable evidence and taken to trial. L.A. county should just throw away the key then.
        I think she thinks she is indestructible and she’s not.
        Karma is a b*tch.

    • Hakura says:

      I’m convinced nuclear war couldn’t dislodge a cracktini from her hand.

      How she manages to escape consequences from the legal system time after time is starting to make me a bit suspicious. I mean, we already know neither Lindsay or Dina are above offering a bribe to sweep things under the rug.

      There could very well be things we’ve never even heard about.

    • mayamae says:

      I know you guys are joking but it sounds brutal.

  8. NM6804 says:

    Yes Lindsay, it’s one straight path for you to your Oscar!

    Not knowing your lines for a fucking Lifetime film, you’re so stupid.

  9. Katie Too says:

    Tenterhooks.

    • OhMyMy says:

      It’s not a common word but that bugged me too. I was debating with myself whether I wanted to put my grammar bitch hat on and correct it. You beat me to it.

      It’s not you Kaiser…the Enquirer spelled it wrong.

      • Katie Too says:

        My grammar bitch got up early this morning!

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        Grammar bitches are alive and kicking all over the site today.

        It’s snarky Friday. It’s the day I dread because tomorrow is a regular work/ school day for us and this is my last day of Internet fun before the dry spell.

      • Genevieve says:

        Hehehe…tht bugged the p*ss out o me, too. Typical Enquirer spell check, lol.

    • TheOriginalTiffany says:

      I thought I was the only one who noticed that! What the heck? Isn’t tender hook an oxymoron?

      • EscapedConvent says:

        Yes, it is! Like Lindsay herself, after she picks up her prescriptions…..

        I would imagine the people on that Lifetime project wish they could be on tender hooks though—the wouldn’t hurt as much as the tenterhooks they are on now!

    • the original bellaluna says:

      THANK YOU. I saw that and went WTF?

      Yes!!!!

      Thank you.

    Whahahahaha!!!!

    • Amelia says:

      On the bright side of things, Grant whatshisface will probably get a boost in publicity for being known as the guy who was patient enough not to push Lindsay off a boat and into the waiting mouth of a shark.

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        If only he were Robert Wagner!

        Sorry, couldn’t resist, bad taste and all.

      • RuddyZooKeeper says:

        I’d say casting will be beating down his door every time they have to cast alongside a difficult leading lady. Good job, Dick.

        LOL, you on fire girl

    • Izzy says:

      Jeez, could you imagine The Cracken and The Butler on the same shoot? Talk about cracktastrophe, and NOT good for Gerry – he’s been quiet and, as I understand it, working hard on sobriety lately. One long day and night with Crackie and THAT would all go right out the window…

  11. Nudgie says:

    This will be the highest rated Lifetime show EVER. Even I will tune in to see the crackacting and you know all the media outlets will as well.

    Kudos to Lifetime for knowing that it’s *numbers*, not quality. Coming up next – the new series “Crack Moms.”

    • kelbear says:

      Exactly!

    • bettyrose says:

      Yep, I bet the execs are thrilled. This is exactly what they wanted. Who cares if the crew is being tormented?

    • Stellax2 says:

      starring Brooke Mueller

    • Trashaddict says:

      OK, I’m dating myself here, but I wonder if the bad acting will beat out the original “Dark Shadows”.

    • polk8dot says:

      @ ‘This will be the highest rated Lifetime show EVER’

      Well, unfortunately for us who would get such a fricking enjoyment out of watching Hohan ‘acting Liz’, this movie will most likely NEVER MAKE IT to the screen.
      It will be closed next week or a week after that – it is clear that Blo’ is at the outer limits of her tolerance to ‘normality’, and will irreversibly crakspin herself into blow-blivion any moment now.
      Lifetime knew it would happen, and I believe they callously and with cold calculation decided to go for it, since the publicity is a goldmine, and then they’ll just get insurance money for having to scrap this ‘production’. However you look at it, Win-Win for them. It is also pretty obvious when you actually look at the ‘costumes’, ‘makeup’ and the ‘sets’ that Lifetime put ZERO EFFORT into preparations for this hoot of a shoot, as if they knew that is was going to amount to nothing. (Sorry for all the quote marks, but I simply can’t use those words in their real sense when pertaining to Cracken).

      Webster’s Dictionary just updated their upcoming new edition: under both Hubris and Schadenfreude there is now a picture of Lifetime’s TM superimposed over Blo’s face.

  12. SolitaryAngel says:

    The guy on tenterhooks should buy a couple cases of Zantac or Pepto. I said it before, I’ll say it again–I have ZERO sympathy for Lifetime…they knew what they were getting, and now they act all shocked that that’s exactly what they got?? They could put a poodle in Liz costume and have the movie come out better than it’s going to be now.

    • keats says:

      I don’t feel sorry for the people who hired her at the network, but MY GOD do i feel sorry for the people who have to deal with her on set. Hopefully they all get book deals or hush money or something.

      • SolitaryAngel says:

        I know, right?? I was thinking of the poor, poor makeup/hair/wardrobe people; just trying to make LL look slightly better than a back-alley crackwhore is next-to impossible, much less transforming her into something vaguely Liz-like….and can you imagine what she must smell like? *shudder*

        You’re right–those poor people aren’t getting paid NEARLY enough!!!!

      • RuddyZooKeeper says:

        I knew they’d crack eventually (maybe that pun was intended), I just thought there’d be a gag in place until after the shoot. Then the stories would fall from the heavens like dominoes. But won’t we all get the shock of our lives when we find they have actually been filming “See You In Hell: Being LiLo.” It’s been like the last five years of her life condensed into less than one month! only Jollywood can do that’

      • KardASSian Butt says:

        I feel sorry for the set people: hair, make up, catering, lighting (oh that job must be harder than usual), etc.

        I do not feel sorry for Grant Whatsit. He signed up to star in a Lifetime Movie with LiLo. Ditto for the producers or the director (I am guessing s/he knew).

      • RuddyZooKeeper says:

        Um, that was supposed to read Hollywood. Sigh.

      • The Other Katherine says:

        Typo and it stays, I’m thinking of it as “Jollywood” from now on. 😀

  13. I.want.shoes says:

    Apparently Lifetime has no room in the budget for bras.

    • Izzy says:

      Thank you! I was wondering if I was crazy. In the era reflected in this movie, bras held up much, um, perkier, sort of out in front and proud of it. If you look at pics of Liz from then, that’s how she looked. She had a lovely figure, which this bloated harlot cannot do justice to. The Cracken looks like she has two deflating balloons up front. Maybe her implants are leaking? 🙂

  14. aquarius64 says:

    Explain to me why Lifetime thought this was a good hire?

  15. Jacq says:

    I bet in her cracked-out mind she IS Elizabeth. Just looking at the photos on set with the planes, boats and cars – not to mention the jewelry and furs (real or not) – I can see her insane delusion that she is somehow still at the top of the Hollywood pile.
    My honest fear for her future isn’t that she’ll kill herself, no she will remain unscathed in true cokeroach form, but that she will kill an innocent bystander. And I hope the families take the legal system to the cleaners for it. At this point, the state of California is responsible for what happens next…

  16. Riana says:

    That’s not Lohan bloat. That’s prosthetics to emphasize how Elizabeth looked in her later years.

    As for the story the only thing that interested me was Lifetime could lose millions on her. I wish, maybe then they’d close that God-awful network. Hell half the Lifetime movies and shows are Lindsey in fictional form.

    • Boo says:

      I disagree about the prosthetics. The DAily Mail has other pictures taken during the same scene/same costuming–check them out. That’s all Bloathan.

      • Riana says:

        I’ll check it out but I’m going by the other pics of Lohan in this thread. Filming has been on for 2 weeks right? I doubt from the ‘titty popping out’ pic to the one of her in a fur coat that sue put on 50 lbs all in her face.

        I have a feeling the unswollen pics are before makeup since she supposedly rolls in 2 hours late.

      • Boo says:

        Her face is VERY round and bloaty in the “titty popping out” pic, too. All her pics lately have been extremely moonfaced and lumpy-looking, and she isn’t wearing prosthetics 24/7.

    • LAK says:

      Liz Taylor did not look like this during the Burton years. Those are the years they are filming. She wasn’t symph -like but she wasn’t bloated and double chinned either.

      She put on weight, was bloated during the Warner years, lost it all during the 80s and early 90s. She became fat and bloated in her old age after the Larry years but at that age, who needs a glamourous granny Jane Fonda/Joan collins style??!!!

      • LeeLoo says:

        Richard Burton died in 1984. Maybe they are shooting some scenes after his death?

      • LAK says:

        It would have to be waaaaay after his death.

        According to her various biographies, After the 2nd marriage imploded, they never saw each other again until 1983 when they toured together in PRIVATE LIVES. Apparently she made an effort to lose the Warner years Bloat/weight so if the biographers are correct, he never saw her at that weight. ever.

  17. sarah says:

    What’s going on with her face? It’s horrible. Elizabeth Taylor has NEVER looked that awful. This movie is such a disgrace.

    • RobN says:

      Yeah, she actually did. Google Taylor and 1977, during the John Warner years, and she’s barely recognizable.

  18. Skins says:

    I’m sure she has stolen that fur coat by now

    • Rory says:

      Was just thinking that, lol. And if not, I’ll bet it goes missing before the end of shooting. Wanna bet? *flashes a $20*

    • OXA says:

      I think the mink is a good fake from HSN or QVC cuz I doubt the production compamy would chance giving her a real fur to nick. Also Lindsay looks full of booze bloat.

  19. Lola B says:

    Yes she’s gross and I’m sure she is bloated but that’s part of her costume in these pics. The saggy bra and big belly too.
    Regardless, I wish Lindsay would just take Leann Rimes and disappear.

    • TheOriginalTiffany says:

      Except we all know her tits sag to her waist and you could see her poochy alcoholic tummy on display in the swimsuit.

      The face bloat never changes, it’s the makeup and hat. Elizabeth looked gorgeous in face framing stuff, but then again she was gorgeous.

      She’s been rocking that bloat for a while on her chins.

  20. Jackie O says:

    lifetime knew exactly what they were getting, but they wanted the ratings she will bring, so suck it up.

    she has alcohol bloat badly…her and johnny depp.

    • Nicola says:

      I agree Jackie. At first I was pissy with Lifetime because I felt they were exploiting the situation for ratings. Lindsay Lohan doesn’t deserve a comeback right now. She hasn’t learned a thing through this process. If anything, hiring her now encourages her foolish behaviour. But at the end of the day, this MAY be the final thing that gets Lindsay to help herself. No one will hire her after this. At least I hope not.

      I hope Lindsay and Britney realize how lucky and blessed they are. I wonder if anyone remembers Lisa Nicole Carson, who was on Ally McBeal and ER. She was canned from ER for being “difficult.” When in truth she was battling undiagnosed mental illness. It took 10 years for her to land another role. BritBrit and Lindsay haven’t even managed their meds yet, and they’re making millions. SMDH.

      • Eleonor says:

        I think It’s unfair to put Britney here.
        Britney has a serious mental issue, but even with that and all her medications, she was able to go on tour, we have to give her credit for this.

      • ahoyhoy says:

        It’s true, Britney has a serious mental illness, and still managed to work her ass off on her tour. Sure she needed help & support, but she did the work.
        I am no Britney fan (used to loathe her), but her struggle back from the BRINK, that we all witnessed through the paps, has really impressed me. I think she has a good work ethic and is a loving mom too. She just needs the right meds & family to keep her on the right path.

      • Bess says:

        There must be some mental illness or brain damage going on with Lohan as well. I can’t believe any sane person who has been to as many therapists and rehabs as she as would act like this.

      • LAK says:

        my 2 cents ; i once attended a talk given by a recovering drug addict who had become a doctor who said that a teenager’s brain is very similar to a baby’s brain ie neuro pathways and synapses are forming which is why teenagers exhibit very similar behaviour to babies ie sleeping all day, moody, short tempers, unreasonable behaviour, tantrums. If you take drugs as a teenager, you are inhibiting or slowing down that process. If you become an addict, they never connect or if they do, not properly and you will therefore always have some kind of problem.

        I don’t know how true that theory is, as i am not a medical dr but i do think it makes alot of sense as to why it is so hard a habit to break and why it tends to trigger mental illnesses. If we consider that at this point Lilo has some kind of drug triggered mental illness then perhaps we can better understand her behaviour.

      • Shan says:

        I’m not sure it is unfair to lump Britney into this – let us not forget that had it not been for her father stepping in (as much as some people would like to question his motives or complain she is being forced to perform)she could have, and likely would have, lost EVERYTHING. She did NOT get to where she is today by herself; we know exactly where that was getting her. There is very little about her recovery that is reflective of what a typical person struggling with severe mental illness and/or addiction goes through. Sure, she has clearly done some positive work, but her life and environment have been regulated to keep her on this track. It’s kind of like her life is one giant in-patient treatment center. There’s a reason people are able to recovery when in a treatment facility (for whatever reason) then relapse when they have to experience reality.

        @LAKS, what that speaker said is a widely accepted belief. It is believed that whatever age a person begins their substance abuse, that is the age they are developmentally “stuck” at. If a person begins using a substance as a means of coping or numbing, they never develop the skills necessary to mature. We would have to assume in Lindsay’s case, if she began abusing drugs at say, 16 (Just guessing), her reactions to stressful situations and conflict would be that of a 16 year old. As someone who works with people in recovery for substance abuse and major mental illness, I can say this is very true! It sounds demeaning to say that many addicts act like children, but in many cases addiction started for them in childhood…there’s a lot to be said for this theory!

      • jwoolman says:

        A big difference between B and L is that Britney never seemed like such an awful person. Lindsay is annoying really because she hurts other people, in particular anyone unfortunate enough to cross her (e.g., the jewelers who objected to having their necklace stolen, the rehab tech who was called to give her a breathalyzer when Linds didn’t wanna, the dump truck driver who had the audacity to get rear-ended by her, etc.) and also blames everybody else when she’s caught. Hard to believe she has any friends, no hint of loyalty in her. Don’t know if those traits are fixable if she finally really stops the drugs and booze.

      • Nicola says:

        I hear what everyone is saying, but I think it is fair to lump Britney in there. Lindsay Lohan also has mental health issues (aside from the addiction). I think she’s medically unbalanced. In my day job, I see what happens when you self medicate. And if ever someone was self-medicating it’s Lindsay. She’s a narcissistic ass, but I think that’s because of her “personality disorder.” She is incapable of getting it under her current course of prescriptions. I don’t think she thinks she can function without the pills and alcohol she’s taking.

        Britney has more money than Lindsay, which meant it attracted a swarm of people who felt it necessary to control her to get access to it.

        The sad thing about Brit-Brit is that people pity her, and feel a need to buy her albums, tickets to her tours, even though your not getting a 1/4 of what she was able to produce before. As a result those same people around her feel they should just keep her going (I also think they fear what will happen if they let her sit down and do nothing). I think Britney’s fans will be her undoing.

        Lindsay, is the only ticket in town other than the Kardashians. We all want to watch the train crash. No one is trying to really help that girl.

      Dahling, it’s NEVER too early for a cracktini! Especially on a Friday. 😉

      I’ve always wondered…what exactly is a cracktini? Martini glass, gin and floating crack rocks? Am I doing it wrong?

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Vodka, love. Vodka. Or in Blohanese, water. 😉 (Feel free to rim the glass in crushed crack rocks, or “sea jasper” if it’s available.)

        Can I just chime in a bit off-topic here and say that I LOVE this site, and I really love reading what you guys have to say. Seriously, if I’m having a lousy day, I know exactly where to go to get a good chuckle. You guys are always right on point, and hilariously so. Kudos also to CB, Kaiser and the crew for giving us this little haven of Hollywood conversation.

      • Izzy says:

        And I’ll just add that sometimes the crap that goes on in LaLa Land deserves a good laugh and joke. The Cracken will likely kill someone one of these days, and THAT is not funny at all. I think we’re all smart enough to know the difference.

      For the death party I want a gallery of the worst Cracken pics on display.

      • Smokey blues says:

        Death party? Wow, who is sicker, this messed up addicted actress or you two “originals” who seem to take unmitigated glee in the thought of this addicted person dropping dead. Just wow.

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        OMG! Rap sheet please? Please add the latest shenanigans.

        She is going to KILL innocent people, that’s why. I would like my family to be safe on the streets.

        If she took responsibility just once, if she really tried rehab, I’d maybe feel sorry for her. She clipped a baby in a stroller, she has chased people down, thrown drinks, gotten into accidents endangering others. THAT is why. AND it isn’t just two of us.

        When she kills an innocent person, let me know if your opinion changes.
        As I have said before, RDJ told a judge that drugs were like a gun and he liked the taste of steel in his mouth. I have the utmost respect for real recovering addicts. Blohan deserves no sympathy at all at this point.

        She couldn’t even take advantage of being at the BF center for gawk sakes. I give up. You must not have been following this site for years, it’s all chronicled here. She is an arrogant douche who LIKES her whore/addict self. See the FU on her nails in court.

      • NerdMomma says:

        🙁

        WTF is a “death party”???

      • Jackie O says:

        death party?? really sick.

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        You’d all be pearl clutching listening to talk radio in LA. One show does a death pool every year on new years week. I’ve never done it, but you submit your top three celebs you think will kick the bucket that year, they get less points if older or have health problems.

        Morbid, but funny. They do have death pools on LL on line. I just pray she doesn’t kill someone’s child. Rylan’s son was just killed by a drunk driver as was someone local in Boston this week.

        I’d rather her take herself out with no collateral damage. Does anyone, anyone think she wants to get better?
        I’ve got a bridge for sale for you.

        I am not going to be all poor little addict when she goes with all the other hypocrites. She will be free of her demons, cough, family and drugs and prostitution, cough and the public will be safe. I reserve my sympathy for those who deserve it.

        FIVE REHABS! She is 25 and didn’t try once, she costs my state untold money and time. What if she killed the baby she clipped while high? Will you all feel sorry for HER then?
        Move that baby, I’m Crackie!

      • Smokey blues says:

        Yes Tiffany I am well aware that Lohan has a rap sheet. I still think it’s pretty sick the way you and bellaluna are so gleeful about this sick girl. I know you both love the “she’s gonna kill somebody so we hope she dies first” line, but to most people that is pretty shoddy reasoning to plan a “death party”. And the fact that some local radio station is just as sick as you doesn’t excuse it.
        I read LL posts pretty frequently. I don’t know what fascinates me more, this poor girl’s train wreck of a life or the people who use her failed rehab and rap sheet as an excuse to use her as an outlet. It’s like you need to create some posting clique, wishing death on a human being to make you and your whole “cracktini” clique feel superior. It’s just as messed up ad LL. I’ve been watching it for a while and I am grossed out by it.

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        Join celenicey? I do not have vitriol for anyone else.

        She hurts people at every turn. I am not a death wisher on any other person. I truly believe she would be better off, she lives in a prison of Fked up ness.

        Or send her to prison, she certainly has deserved that. The only two things that will help, no one in her circle cares enough to help her and she doesn’t want it. It would be different if she would go away and get better, but she courts and loves it all, I guess some can’t see that.

      • NerdMomma says:

        I hardly think it should be classified as “pearl clutching” to find the concept of death pools or death parties wrong. That talk radio show sounds disgusting, and I really have no problem with morbid humor. That just sounds morbid with no humor.

        I am no supporter of Lohan, and I could not agree more that the most important thing is that no innocent bystanders get hurt. But I would like to see her do some time in prison, which is exactly what she has earned, exactly what she deserves, exactly what anyone else who has done what she has done would get as a consequence. That would get her off the streets, get her off the drugs, and get the stupid weave out of her hair. She should do a few months and come out humble and contrite. Someone posted yesterday that people should start a petition to the LA police – THAT’s an idea worth supporting!

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Damn, see what happens when I can’t sleep and then go back to bed?

        Okay, first of all, I DON’T WISH HER DEAD. My personal belief is that Lindsay will be better off dead than she is now. She won’t be behind the wheel, at The Chateau, or under WO’s thumb.

        Secondly, I don’t want her taking anyone out with her. And since she NEVER does anything alone (except blow in the stall of the loo), that’s not bloody likely, now is it?

        Thirdly, she has absolutely NO regard for another human being on the face of this earth. She lies; denies; steals from just about everyone with whom she comes into contact; breaks contracts, her probation, and the law; and has an unhealthy sense of self while managing to lack a gram of respect for anyone else.

      • the original bellaluna says:

        p.s. It’s not “glee.” It’s the sheer weariness of her doing ALL this stuff and NEVER facing SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES for her actions. (please see list below)

  23. Carol says:

    It’s no shock to my husband and I that the PR people and Lindsey planted stories about impossibly long hours. My husband works about 100 hours a week but that’s on big budget films. You can bet the overtime in the industry plus per diem is enough where NO ONE would be complaining about the long hours. Which actually consist of sitting, talking, waiting, then working a small portion depending on what your role is (hair, wardrobe, actors). This girl us the most delusional crackhead. I’m happy her lies are outed. So many grateful people wait their lives for a small lifetime movie to hire them:(

    • NerdMomma says:

      I would love to know your perspective of Lohan tweeting that and causing the unions to become involved… to me, it sounds like she caused huge problems for her employer…

      • Carol says:

        Honestly (in regards to IATSE, at least) they know exactly what goes on because a percentage of pay cheques are given to them as a member. There was nothing to investigate though! IATSE makes certain you are taken care of, like any union does. If my husband works more than 14 hours a day (example) he gets his negotiated rate plus overtime. Film industry overtime is nothing anyone would complain about. Even labourers make such fantastic money that the hard hours of the industry are not an issue. If you cannot handle working 100 hours a week, commuting, living out of hotels and multiple hones, having no time off, then you won’t last a day. The only issue is Lohan and her PR people testing out these lies on a public that they think us dumb enough to buy it. Granted most people do not understand the intricacies of the industry but that’s why I disabuse the notions when I can. She is toxic and the crew are the ones suffering. The crew usually always suffers when it comes to someone like her. My husband had a film canceled on him this month right before we were to leave because of an actor’s ego. Countless crew list out on months of work when really needed. That’s my personal hatred going though, I’m projecting it on these stories of crackie I suppose:)

  24. Talie says:

    After SNL, I figured she had lost it. Acting is a muscle that needs to be exercised regularly and she had not done so in years. I think she genuinely believed it would all come as easy to her as it did when she was 17 and working a lot more.

    • LAK says:

      This Liz http://bit.ly/NrdDCy

      Not the Liz of the era she is supposed to be depicting.

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        See, she resembles Liz near death.
        Is that second picture of Elizabeth not devastatingly beautiful or what?

    • jwoolman says:

      If she really is made up to look like that even though Taylor didn’t at the time – I wonder if it’s just another wrong call by production. They seem to be goofing on other things such as what and how Taylor wore clothes, hair etc. at different periods. It seems kind of amateurish, not a well-researched historical piece. She really looks too bad to be that way naturally, even though her appearance does seem to shift all over the place depending on what’s in her system. So somebody might really think Taylor looked like that during the Burton years. Or could it be a scene set much later?

  26. Elise says:

    Larry Thompson, the producer, is Joan Rivers’ former longtime manager. If you watched the documentary about her (A Piece of Work) he is in it and was very unreliable with her and seemed really scattered. Makes me question this guy’s judgment. I’m a big Joan fan, and would be curious to hear her take on this, especially since she parted ways with him.
    Oh, and the top pics are terrifying.

  29. neelyo says:

    They hired her for the bloat! The latter day Liz scenes were shot on the days following her coke binges and the producers saved a ton on make-up.

    That first pic is the funniest thing I’ve seen in weeks!

    • RuddyZooKeeper says:

      Exactly this! I read somewhere a synopsis of the film, and it does not seem to portray either Elizabeth or Richard at their moral, personal, or professional bests. I may have read it wrong or read a bad post, but for something like that, her icky body is a proper fit.

  30. Diane says:

    This is news? And BTW … Lindsey in NO WAY resembles the breathtakingly beautiful Liz Taylor.

  31. bagladey says:

    Well she may not look like Elizabeth Taylor but she got the “middle-aged woman” part down pat, right down to the double chin and saggy upper arm. She’s finished as an actor imo.

  32. lucy2 says:

    Everyone else expected this, if Lifetime and the producers didn’t, they’re morons.
    I’m still thinking this is some kind of insurance scam. Every article that mentions the producer mentions the insurance taken out on her.

  33. LAK says:

    yikes that top picture! i get that this isn’t a look-a-like contest but Liz never looked this bad even in her ‘fat liz’ days. And she was beautiful through the Richard Burton years.

    Alot of post edit is going to be needed to clean up Lilo.

    It really didn’t take a genie to know that she was lying about her work schedule. My sympathy is entirely with the production. Not the network excutives who decided to cast her but the crew on the ground whose work is made more difficult by her shenanigans. If she worked 85hrs in 4 days, how long does she think the crew worked????? And they don’t get her perks or salary.

    I’m hoping that the folks at Lifetime are evil geniuses and the real movie all along has been about the behind the scenes drama of Cracken making this movie. THAT I would watch.

    • lucy2 says:

      Just imagine, if this is her last film, how much money Lifetime can make off clips into perpetuity…

      They win no matter if she manages to finish it, no matter if she sucks, and no matter if she even dies before it’s finished.

      Grim, but true.

  36. Lio says:

    The ratty long hair is terrible! Liz never had hair that long. Would it have killed her to take out the damn extensions for the movie?? Because no WAY is that her real hair, lol.

  37. Jackson says:

    Was Elizabeth Taylor all freckled like LL? I kind of think not. Why don’t they have body makeup on her in that sleeveless dress? Haha, like lack of body makeup will be the undoing of this film.

    • really says:

      They’ll probably get rid of it digitally, in post-production.
      That would be kinder than making some poor crew member paint her body. Or they ran out of time, since she’s always so fucking late.

      I recollect her as being pretty freckled later on when she used to tan a lot-

  38. marybeth18 says:

    Honestly, this is probably going to be the biggest Lifetime movie, numbers-wise, that they’ve done in years. I’m going to tune in for the trainwreck.
    The problem for Lindsay is that people like us are willing to watch a movie on basic cable to giggle at how horrible she looks and how bad her acting is. What we’re not willing to do is have her invade the shows we love as a guest star, and we’re definitely not willing to pay money to see her in a cinema. So what are her options moving forward? Because the interest in her antics will only last for so long, and then she won’t even get Lifetime movies (which, to put it in perspective, are the place where Tori Spelling and LeAnn Rimes get acting jobs, so…)

  39. maggiegrace says:

    So, let’s say your face is all bloated up like a water balloon. First, what’s causing that? From a medical standpoint, I mean? And second, what is that kind of bloat doing to the rest of your organs? Medical folks want to chime in? FWIW, I believe that is her own fat face and not a prosthesis. Who has budget for a prosthetic face when people keep smashing Porsches on company time?

    • operagirl says:

      I agree, and was wondering the same thing?

    • TheOriginalTiffany says:

      In my medical opinion, take that for what it is worth, we are looking at alcohol and coke.

      Drinkers like her get moon faces and big guts from the liver inflammation and sugar bloat from the alcohol. Coke bloat as well.

      Opiates don’t do this, treated cancer patients for 20 years, have been on opiates for years until recently. Don’t cause this, think heroin, another opiate. No bloat, more wasting.

      She looks like the typical alkie/coke addict. Thin limbs, fat face and bloat in the middle.

      • Boo says:

        Thanks, TOF. So then, the bloat is made up of…what? Like water, or fluid that has seeped out of some cells and pooled in certain parts of your face/neck, or what? WHAT IS IT? I’m fascinated and disgusted at the same time.

      • LAK says:

        I am not a medic, but an ET fan. I hate that people can’t see that this is Lilo’s face and NOT ET’s face or prosthetics to look like ET during her bloated years. The ET bloated years are late 70s when she was married to John Warner. She lost alot of that weight after that marriage imploded. Burton never saw ET like this.

        This is not a bio pic of ET’s entire life.

      • OriginalTiffany says:

        It can be ascities, a fluid that builds around the liver and a bunch of other stuff, but I have to literally run out the door now…more later
        Her liver is likely very enlarged as well.

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        Sorry, crappy reception on site. Anyway, liver scans were one of my specialties. Many per day, lots of drinkers.
        Usually they have very enlarged, cirrhotic livers with scarring, many get pancreatitis, have lots of gut inflammation. Their livers, after this long on alcohol are much much bigger, you can probably feel and see her liver margins. Not good, bloat also comes from the kidneys not being able to eliminate all the waste in the system.
        Not diagnosing her, just usual causes.

      • Boo says:

        TOF, thanks again for the explanation. That’s pretty horrifying, really, to think she has likely done so much damage to herself already.

    • sarahtonin says:

      I’ll cosign what TOT said. The face looks like coke bloat and/or booze bloat. Actually she reminds me of organ failure patients waiting for transplants who have facial oedema (swelling). Bitch is so full of it I’m surprised she hasn’t claimed heart failure as an excuse for all her f^ckery and gone to Disneyland with make-a-wish. (Plus a photog from the tabloid she sells her exclusive to).

      An important thing to consider is that she admitted she had bulimia, right? Bulimics have swollen faces from excessive vomiting because the salivary glands swell in response to fluid loss. It explains the strange looking double chin and the puffy cheeks. Bulimia explains her teeth getting stained and worn too.

      She also could have a messed up her body fat to muscle ratio from bingeing & purging and drug benders. Her arms are looking like they’ve lost tone. I imagine it’s from her weight fluctuating. When you crash diet you lose muscle, then when you put the weight on you replace it with fat. If you repeatedly do this, particularly without exercising, you can end up looking chubby even though you weigh the same as you always have. You could be the same weight on the scales but end up with flabby limbs, fat face and gut because your ratio is so out of whack.

      I don’t know if she’d have full on cirrhosis or kidney failure at 26, but she is certainly on the path to liver failure in the future, that’s if she has a future. So it’s probably a combination of coke, alcohol, bulimia and yo-yo dieting, imho. Maybe she’s going hard, doing it all and calling it method acting? The only thing she has in common with Liz is bulimia and addiction so she’s probably working very hard to portray that aspect of her genuinely,

      • Boo says:

        Thanks for the response, Sarahtonin…it was very enlightening. And scary. The bulimia is a very good point, too–that can mess with all kinds of things, making the alcohol and coke use even more dangerous than it already is.

  43. Drivel Lady says:

    Gerard Butler probably doesn’t even know who Lindsay is. Grant is a good choice.

  44. Sillyone says:

    I am aware that back in the day they didn’t wear low rise trousers and the waists were higher on women giving beautiful hour glass figures, HOWEVER even with the waist higher boobies did not rest on the belt/waist line. Holy crap put on a damn bra!

    As for her face bwhahahaaaa oh holy hell wow.

  45. Dibba says:

    Who would cast this woman in any movie? Should have given another actress the chance. I couldn’t bring myself to watch anything with her in it.

  46. Dani says:

    Lifetime knew the baggage that would come w/Lindsay when they picked her. They wanted the publicity plain and simple.

    Lindsay was picked precisely for who she is. Now they are having trouble on set, well boo hoo Lifetime. There’s your publicity.

    Ironic thing is that Lindsay thinks they picked her for her acting skills. The joke is on her because it is all so sad and pathetic. And this is to be her big comeback. Hardly. It is again just a reminder how badly she needs serious help.

  47. Hmm says:

    Um, they’re supposed to be love interests? They look like they’re playing father and daughter. I’m surprised no one else has said this….

  48. aud says:

    never thought i would say this

    should have cast Megan Fox

  49. logan says:

    My dear departed Gammy would look at those first two pictures and say exactly this, ” Hells bells and pecker nuts girl what did you do to your self.”
    She said hells bells and pecker nuts for everything, don’t quite know what it means, but my Gammy had it goin on.
    If she said her famous line you knew she wasn’t happy.

    • the original bellaluna says:

      Hee-hee 😀 Mum says “Hell’s bells” but “pecker nuts” is a new one to me.

      • logan says:

        Back in the 80’s when I got a mall hair perm, when Gammy saw it she said “Hells bells and pecker nuts girl you look like one of them Poodle dogs. How long before that grows out?” I cried for two days. Blunt she was.

      • the original bellaluna says:

        logan, Ahhhhhh the 80’s perms! I had perms (my hair is naturally straight as an ironing board) off and on. You should see my senior picture! 😀 My first (and LAST) spiral perm was A LIVING NIGHTMARE! My hair was (and still is) s-o-o-o-o-o-o long that they had to use 3 bottles of perm solution, and they had to use so many rods I couldn’t hold up my own head. (Lookin’ like something out of a horror movie, all those door-knockers hanging off my head.)

        Thank GOD I embraced my natural hair, colour and all, in my late 20’s!!!!!

  50. really says:

    I hope the post digitizer will be getting paid a ton of money, because s/he will have a lot to do on this one! And I bet that when Lindsey sees her altered images on the screen, she’ll think that’s how she really looks.

    (they can do wonders. for example, keira knightley’s face broke out badly before POTC, and they digitally gave her perfect skin in every shot. i wonder if they’ll do Lilo’s with a picture of Liz on the desktop).

    • jwoolman says:

      Can the digitizers adjust the shape of the face ( which must be varying hourly…), the fit of clothing, and her smoker’s croaky voice? I know digital enhancement makes non-singers sound like singers and b&w can be colorized- but how much can they do in a long video on a low budget? She must be in practically every scene. This won’t be like heavily photoshopping a publicity still.

      • Annie says:

        Highly doubt they’ll be doing that – this is a low budget movie and that sort of thing is *very* expensive. And just imagine how hard, time consuming and expensive fixing the Cracken’s melting features would be compared to getting rid of a few tiny pimples on Keira’s otherwise perfect face – the digitizer would have to be some sort of master artist.

        Nah, we’ll get to see The Cracken in all her triple chinned glory – raise your cracktinis!

  51. novaraen says:

    She is a bloated disgusting mess. Not surprisingly.

  52. LeeLoo says:

    I’ll be surprised if Lifetime is able to finish this cracktasrophe.

    No surprise whatsoever about the union investigations. As for Lindsay, she is over and out. She can’t even do a simple Lifetime movie. See that Oscar, Lindsay? Take a good look at it because you will never get one.

    • LAK says:

      Other producers may have wanted to use her after Lifetime but not only is she causing problems for the crew and production, she’s also triggering Union investigations.

      You’d have to be blotto to touch her now, even if she could be insured again.

    • Bess says:

      Isn’t Crackie supposed to start filming “The Canyons” with that porn star in July? How is this type of project getting insurance with LL in the cast?

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Since San Fernando Valley is such a porn hot spot, I’m guessing homeowner’s or renter’s insurance. 😉

  53. Palermo. says:

    Gee, nobody saw this coming I guess LOL

  54. Elyse says:

    The firs pic SHOCKED me. Wtf is wrong with her face?!? It looks like she gained 20 lbs. Coke bloat much?? How sad…actually no, not sad. She had a million chances, more than any normal person would ever have. She’s a selfish little brat and should be in jail. Get your shit together Lindsay, before you kill someone with your bullshit antics!!!

  55. Anahata says:

    This is just ridiculous at this point.

  56. bagladey says:

    Don’t all of these movies have “behind-the-scene” videographers these days? Now that’s some isht I would pay good money to see.

  57. Harleyhoney says:

    She’s been given WAY to many chances..she can’t even get her shit together long enough for a lifetime movie.kick her ass outta of Hollywood !! IMO ,she’s just some child star turned junkie…

  58. TWN65 says:

    This movie will be horrible. Doesn’t Lifetime have somekind of “historical” (not sure what these people are called on a movie set)person that knows what Liz ACTUALLY looked like when she was w/Dick? I just Googled pics of Liz & Dick during their time together..Liz has no double chins or bloat. Liz’s face was smooth,contoured and just beautiful!! I have also seen the pic of Liz in the fur hat, Lindsey can’t pull it off, just a disgrace.

  59. stinky says:

    um. if i could have a driver taking me everywhere i needed to go …why wouldnt I ?-? What is UP. I dont get it. The ‘cracken’ can’t drive. Obviously.

    • jwoolman says:

      And if she used the driver provided, maybe she would have had time to study her lines rather than crashing into a truck…

  60. Hanna says:

    This thread might be the most amusing thread on CB yet 😉

  61. Jayna says:

    Gosh, those fillers and cheeks age her.

    I agree. This will be massive ratings numbers for Lifetime. I will be on the couch with my popcorn ready for the Emmy winning performance of Lilo.

      Thank you! See???

      ANY normal person would be serving HARD time for that rap sheet. If she were a black guy in South Central, she’s be doing life. Add up all the thieving alone, the crazy car chase.
      Because she is a celeb, she is out there causing havoc and chaos at every turn. To producers, courts, bystanders, passengers, anyone living in the vicinity.

      I too think she would be better off dead or in prison for a very long time. NOT a couple of months. Laughable with that history-can anyone justify that list and say that person should be driving porches and making movies.
      If that person lived in your town, you’d want them in jail or dead. Her passenger the other day could have been killed had she swerved a little more to his side.
      I wasn’t driving!
      My brakes failed!
      I worked 85 hours!

    • Seagulls says:

      How much of that do you suppose she remembers? I really, fully do not understand addiction, so I just do not get how a person cannot think back and go, “wow, I have effed up.”

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Seagulls, honestly, I think that she is so thoroughly steeped in delusion and denial that she probably thinks everyone is out to get her and she’s an innocent victim.

        There will be NO helping her until she actually ADMITS she has a problem and both SHE and her addictions are at fault for the mess she’s made of her life (a la RDJ).

  63. A-Rod says:

    I think she’s more suited for “Liz and Larry: A Betty Ford Romance” than “Liz and Dick”. The bloat is out of control!! What is happening here? Crack alley, cut rate fillers or liver failure? Both?

    • LeeLoo says:

      It’s a halfway decent makeup job. Although I don’t think the makeup folks had to do a whole lot. Just some minor prosthetics. She was probably already pretty bloated.

      • Trashaddict says:

        Yeah, well fond recollections of the 60s are all well and good, but some of the styles were pretty damned awful.

    • cayenne says:

      I am curious as to why everyone keeps saying coke bloat! How many models use coke on a regular basis, yet don’t seem to have this “coke bloat” issue. Please explain.

      • Bee says:

        see mischa barton a few years ago.

      • Kathryn says:

        Yeah! She I the only celeb who uses coke that has ” coke bloat ” is that really the issue? She’s pretty thin, so….? or does something else cause it? She is scarily amazing how much her face can shape shift over the course of a few days.

      • the original bellaluna says:

        It’s not JUST coke bloat; it’s also the booze. Booze is dehydrating; it stresses out the liver and kidneys; the body tissue retains fluid, as body tissue is wont to do when it thinks it needs fluid; and the result is, well, this look.

      • Becky says:

        Coke makes if you thin at first then after many years coke heads get the bloat, also the higher your tolerance the more you drink to even it out.

      • LittleDeadGirl says:

        I think coke bloat is just the best two words for it but like everyone else said it’s a combo of drugs and booze for many many years. Plus I think she’s had some plastic surgery too.

  65. Bee says:

    Sorry, but no sympathy for lifetime or the producer here. They knew what they were getting into and they are just exploiting her for ratings. If people actually stopped hiring her maybe she would wake up and actually clean up her act. The people who are exploiting her just so people will tune in are at this point part of the problem. Cant stand Rosie and her big mouth but she was right on this one.

  66. Katija says:

    In my very short-lived acting career, I did one community theater play. I don’t even remember the name. They needed a French girl, but were so short-staffed that they were willing to tweak it and make her Russian.

    The costumes looked like that. No joke. Are they pulling wardrobe from the collective cast/crew’s grandmas’ closets? Cause that was our strategy…

    • Katija says:

        Katija 😀 Thank you for adding “The black kid was driving” above – I can’t believe I forgot that classic of Linnocent’s bon mots! (See what happens when I get overwhelmed with crack-breaking news?) 😉

      • bluhare says:

        This is a crackerjack bunch, isn’t it?

      • the original bellaluna says:

        bluhare – We are the “crack commenting” team, are we not? God love Kaiser (and CB) for providing us a forum!

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        There are so many possibilities. Pork cracklins, cracktinis, cracktastrophes.

        Crackscandalous!

      • Liberty says:

        I love reading the comments here! They’re what drew me into this site along with K and CB’s spin on events.

        You are all marvelous crackconteurs.

        And let us not forget “cracktabulous.”

  67. Kathryn says:

    Boo boo, Lifetime. If Lindsay effs up, you could lose millions. No sympathy, everyone knows how Lindsay is so when she suffers “exhaustion” is late and can’t remember her lines? No one is surprised,. They hired Linds for scores of publicity and are betting on ratings. Whatever they get, they deserve.

  68. neelyo says:

    I keep coming back to that top pic because it’s cracking me up so hard. She’s reminding me of Ursula the Sea Witch. If you scroll by the second pic really fast, it sort of resembles Liz.

    I really wish they’d do a behind the scenes on this thing because it would be so much more compelling than anything that will make it to the screen.

    The producer’s website. The picture has “not as smart as he thinks he is” written all over it.

  70. Butch says:

    Wow. Not a single post of support for this woman. I mean ….not even a ‘Ya…but…” or “she’s just going through the crazies…” post. Even the most hated celebs out there have some OP support. I’m sure she tells herself in the close, late hours that hatred of so many strengthens her resolve. She has to be the loneliest girl in H’wood. The thing about being a good actor is you actually have to work at it and treat it like the craft you love so much. She must seriously hate f–king acting!

    • Alecto says:

      I don’t think that it’s that she hates acting. I think she hates working period. It cuts into her party time.

  71. whateverusay says:

    Is anybody really surprised by these stories at this point? Cause I’m not.

  72. Donna G says:

    LIE down. I am sorry—inexcusable.

    • TheOriginalTiffany says:

      Oooo, more grammar police. As my grandma said, chickens lay, people lie.

      Especially Crackens.

    Tonya Harding : Ice Skating :: Lindsay Lohan : Acting.

    • Boo says:

      At least Tonya’s reign of terror on the ice world was relatively brief and limited to just that one assault (as far as I know). Didn’t they ban her from skating for her entire life? They need to ban Cracken from “acting” her entire life.

  74. Chicagogurl17 says:

    Elizabeth had 9 lives and none of them looked this bad.

    BTW – Lilo is a hard client, but who is this makeup artist who needs to be out of a job stat?

    I wonder if they’re going to fog lense the hell out of this production.

  75. moo says:

    blah, blah, blah…..

    why are they all acting like this wasn’t going to happen??

    same sh*t, different day!

  76. Izzy says:

    “When you lay down with crackie dogs… you wake up with crackheads.” Priceless. Thank you for another awesome daily guffaw.

  77. Jennika says:

    Omg Kaiser! That top picture is amazing!! Add it to you usual Lilo pics!

  78. artista says:

    Strange but now I can’t wait to watch it. Hopefully she SNL’s her lines off cue cards. Please be on DVD with a making of the movie extra.

    • the original bellaluna says:

      The funniest part of SNL was her bending over to read the cue cards. PRICELESS! 😀

      • OhMyMy says:

        She reminded me of that scene in Back to the Future when Crispin Glover is practicing his confront Biff/save Lorraine lines. “Hey…you…(awkward pointing gesture)…Leave her alone!”

  79. Newtsgal says:

    I read that along with not knowing her lines and the diva crap,and dispite having a voice coach that her accent is in and out so most likely they will have to do voiceovers and you know that means $$$$$.
    Also, Lifetime really isn’t that happy with the dailys

    • the original bellaluna says:

      That’s what they get for hiring The Cracken! If they want someone to blame, they need to look in their collective mirrors.

      We BOTH know that if she wasn’t doing this film, she’d be crack-hustling her way into Hamptons parties. And that would be JUST as entertaining! *grins evilly and rubs hands together, crackling* (see what I did there?) 😉

      • Newtsgal says:

        I sure could use a double cracktini extra ice Bella, it’s bad hot here! I’m sweatin’ like a puppy poopin’ peach pits.
        I don’t feel bad for Lifetime, I do feel for Thompson having to deal with the cracken by day and at night havin’ to listen to his wife ” I told ya so…you think its worth the ratings now….dumb*ss?” (hehehehe!)

      • the original bellaluna says:

        *passes Newts double cracktini* You KNOW how men HATE to hear “I told you so” so I’ve revised mine to “I TRIED to tell you…” Either way, the point is made! 😀

        It’s actually unseasonably cool and RAINING here! (God’s washing my car.) I’m SO excited to be able to turn off the AC, open all the windows, and wear pants! (I know; simple minds, simple pleasures, right?) 😉 (Where are you? East Coast?)

        I would try to jump into the freezer but, I’m afraid Left Brain would try to lock me in……hehehehe!

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Yikes! It’s sunny here now, but still cool. (LMAO @ “only 94” – it was “only 94” here yesterday, and I was ready to shoot someone in the face.)

        I used to jump in the walk-in at the club where I sang when I got too hot! (Hubs bounced – that’s how we met – and the owner LOVED me!)

      • Newtsgal says:

        GAWD!
        What I wouldn’t do to go back to my bartendin’ days….That’s how I met Left Brain although he was a customer (my best!) To be able to go into a walkin freezer girl, I’d pack a lunch, now if I had internet connection in there I wouldn’t never come out!

  80. RobN says:

    Oh come on, people. She did not gain 30 pounds in the week between the car accident and this filming. It is a prosthetic.

    She did not look like this a week ago, she will not look like this a week from now.

    I have as much disdain for her as anybody, but this is not her normal face. There’s plenty of real stuff to mock her for without making stuff up.

  81. jovianne says:

    “When you lay down with crackie dogs… you wake up with crackheads.”

    LMAO.

  82. Tansey says:

    I’m not a mean person and I don’t get enjoyment out of other people’s misery, but for Lohan I’m going to make an exception. I’m just really enjoying the fact her “comeback” in nothing but a complete disaster. I really, really don’t like her. She’s has numerous chances to straighten her life out and she’s spit on every one of those chances. I doubt she’ll ever get offered another movie role after this and to be honest, she doesn’t deserve one either. Give movie roles to the actresses who will appreciate it. Who will do their best and not f**k things up every chane they get. Who will treat their co-stars and the movie crew with decency and respect.

    Lindsay has no right to act like a diva or act like she’s some huge star and she needs to stop acting like she’s doing Lifetime some huge favor for being in this movie. If anything, Lifetime is doing HER a favor and once again, she’s spitting on this chance.

    She’s going to be knocked down to the ranks of those on cheesy celebrity reality shows and all anyone will have to say is “well, what did you expect?”

  83. Candyland says:

    What the Effin F’s wrong with her face? Swollen cheeks, chin, neck, dimple. No way would prostitic for Liz look like that. Catwoman yah maybe.

    Why are her t1ts hanging down ta China?
    Liz wasn’t a bra burner.

    Better title for movie: ? and ? cause neither person looks like Liz or Dick. Duh.

  84. Cancan says:

    Lifetime should totally do a movie about this, the filming of Liz& Dick and i bet everyone will watch that 😀

  85. ViloDeMenus says:

    Agreed, the story about filming will have to be more interesting in this drivel for the actual TV movie. Hey at this point, Helen Keller can see that Lilo looks nothing like Liz Taylor, maybe that’s supposed to be the joke, it’s really a comedy take off with a blubbery bad actress, playing at acting in a production of a TV show that looks nothing like the woman who the TV show is supposed to be about. Humor on every level! Wow, this looks so incredibly bad it’s now not even funny. On the upside, this should kill Lilo’s career faster than a stake in the heart of a Vamp on True Blood and be a true death for Lilo! We can hope anyway. I’m sorely tired of Crackie and her shenanigans.

  86. Nilber says:

    I couldn’t resist and showed my 8 yr old a side by side photo Blohan and Liz Taylor. He looked at me like I was playing a prank. Once I finally convinced him this was a movie and believe me it was hard. He asked me what drugs the makers of that movie were on to cast her. Bahahaha! Love it! Out of the mouths of babes.

  87. apsutter says:

    Oh my God! What is wrong with this bitch’s face?!? She’s my age and while I could still pass for 20 she looks like she’s 50!

  88. Maggs says:

    is that really her face or a prosthetic? I find it hard to believe from one week to the next her face bloated up that much

  89. Maggie says:

    The word is “tenterhooks” not tenderhooks. Forgive me, I’m spelling-obsessed. This is all so predictably sad, disgusting, discouraging, etc, etc. Can’t she just go away somewhere/get real help and a great support team (not Dina or Michael) and then go live in a quiet little town in the midwest and go off our radar forever ?
    No she probably can’t or won’t. She’ll be a tabloid headline…”Lindsay found dead at age….” and probably way too soon

  90. Flora Kitty says:

    Crackie doesn’t look like Elizabeth Taylor, she looks like Divine in Lust in the Dust.

  91. Franny says:

    I know there are already 200+ comments about this, but HOW IS HER FACE SO FAT?! Her body is relatively thin. I have a chubby face, but its because the rest of me is chubby too! I know, coke bloat, but THAT BAD?! how.

  92. the original bellaluna says:

    Ladies, just take a little read up-thread; the explanations are all there. 🙂 Happy Friday!

  93. Lisa says:

    Looks-wise, she’s got the part. Let’s not forget how Liz aged.

    • Dawning Red says:

      Well, Lohan DOES look like how Liz aged. Especially since Taylor has been dead for over a year now!

  94. MoP says:

    Is she suffering from renal failure? Seriously – she does not look healthy.

  95. Twez says:

    Good lord. They need to just use photos of her face as the official illustration of coke bloat.

  96. erika says:

    wow! wowa-wowzee! Who’s the Pudgey Fudge Monster!?!?

    Girl’s got some friend’s moving in to the apartment on her chin….it’s a ‘3 bedroom’ damn that girl’s getting the chubbly wubblies!!!

  97. erika says:

    you know, Lilo’s been on the top of the ‘i hate most list’ next to c. anthony and KK, but I got to sqeeze the Lifetime Network/producers in there too…

    shutup! this is what you ASKED for! over and over they blabbed about how great they feel about the decision to hire Lilo.

    I think the only truth involved in this shenanigans of a movie is that it is going to go down in history as the most delicious comedy EVER! Lilo’s gonna suck soooooo hard in it – and there’s the fun.

    I am so camped out infront of the telly for this one! it’s going to suck but be so much fun to watch a live crackwizard try n’ strut her stuff! can’t wait!!!

  98. JustMe says:

    Man, this girl is an alcoholic. She SOOOO has the “alcohol bloat” going on in her face. My ex was a raging alcoholic. He was skinny everywhere else, for the most part, but his face looked like a constant “moon pie” from drinking EVERY day, day in, day out. This skank is a joke. Can’t wait ’til she joins the 27 club.

  99. Kloops says:

    She’s gross.

  100. KayC says:

    I will be so happy when she is no longer news. There is nothing there interesting, talented, or desiring. And anyone that thinks they are special but are not in anyway, sickens normal human beings. She sickens me.

  101. Amy says:

    I can’t even. I just want her to go away and be locked in a room alone until she can be a real person…if that’s even possible.

  102. sarahtonin says:

    Lindsay once had Hollywood on a silver platter. Now she won’t even have cable movies on a plastic toilet seat.

    Maybe now she’s unemployable she can spend some quality time with her parents, go away together or something. Do they do family discounts at rehab?

  103. colt13 says:

    They hired her to save on makeup artists. Think about it, when they need her to play old Liz, they let her party for a night and she comes back tired and bloated.

    In reality, it is sad that a 25 yr old looks so much like 60 yr old Liz.

  104. dee says:

    I’m totally dating myself here but I remember Liz Taylor wearing that fur hat Blohan’s got on in the first pic and la Liz was still a stunning woman at that time. She never had a whispy, waif of a figure but for damn sure she always had appropriate undergarments on to flatter her hourglas shape. Of all the indignities that this affair is inflicting upon this woman’s memory, she’d probably be the most upset to be portrayed as ever having left the house looking like–as my mother used to put it concerning ill-fitting bras–a sack of doorknobs. Liz was no saint, not by long shot, but damn she did glamour right. Lohan,ot so uch.

    • Sugar says:

      Oh boy now the fur coat has to share some of blame. From that pix of the Porsche all I can say is her assistances guardian angel should send a bill to Lindsay. one more thought “the rap sheet”- keep it going, post it often, send it to the DA’s office the next time & next time & well yeah.

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Oh, Sugar, now why don’t we ALL do that?!? That’s a GREAT idea, my dear! I’m pretty sure the DA’s email address is public, or at least there’s a link to the DA’s Office general email. And it should be sent to the LAPD Chief of Police, as well.

        LA voters and residents, make your voices heard!

  105. Hollz says:

    Someone needs to sit her down and make her watch her early movies – she was so dang cute in Parent Trap 🙁

  106. flamingo says:

    Remember ‘American Sweethearts’? How awesome would it be if Lifetime put out a behind the scenes movie like Christopher Walken’s character???

    • Candy7468 says:

      Omg I was just thinking the same thing! That would be just priceless! Too bad that kind of thing in real life would be tons of lawsuits waiting to happen.

  107. Candy7468 says:

    All I can say is wow. They should take her picture and include it in an anti-drug campaign to convince the kiddies not to do drugs. I’m pretty sure the drug use rate among youths will go down exponentially after that. She looks like she’s pushing 40 and what is she now? 25, 26? It really pisses me off how much she’s fucked off and yet she still gets away with it all. I mean, I understand celebrities tend to get away with a lot but this is just ridiculous. And the whole overcrowding excuse for letting her out is bullshit. I’ve actually been to jail and the jail is full of people doing lots of time for doing less shit than LiLo. It pisses me off how someone gets caught with a meth pipe and does several months, yet Lindsay Lohan is repeatedly found with cocaine and constantly being charged with DUIs and what’s the longest sentence she’s had to do? A few days? Come on! While I wouldn’t go so far as to wish her dead, I do think she needs to see some hard time in Solano County jail in A mod. I’m pretty sure being stuck with the crazies and murderers for even a week would be enough to give her a dose of reality because she surely needs it.

  108. Ravensdaughter says:

    The most obvious thing-not only does she bear no resemblance to Liz, she looks plain awful-worse and worse as the shoot goes on!
    Cut and run, Lifetime. Surely she has violated the terms of her contract by now!

    • Ramona Q. says:

      I disagree. I think the makeup and costume depts. are doing a good job of making Lindsay look like Elizabeth.

  109. Katers says:

    In the first 3 pics, she is Definitely on blow. It’s her signature blow face.

  110. DebDebP says:

    What I want to know is how she can simultaneously look so old and broken, yet still come across like a teenager playing dress-up in grandmummy’s clothes.

  111. skuddles says:

    Lohan’s figure is dunzo – the scrawny legs and butt, the big, bloated gut and saggy, flaccid boobs (and lets not even get into what’s going on with her face). Only 26 and her looks are completely shot.

  112. jen7waters says:

    She looks awful! D:
