Stevie Nicks is promoting her new CD and touring again with Fleetwood Mac. The 60 year-old rocker has definitely been saying what’s on her mind during her recent press junket. We reported yesterday on an AP interview with Nicks in which she claimed that computers and technology have “ruined our children” and have eradicated “social graces” and “manners.”
The NY Times posted a profile of Nicks yesterday in which they talked about her commanding stage presence and still-strong following. Nicks was asked about some half-assed plan by Lindsay Lohan to purchase the rights to her life story for a movie about her life and she responded unequivocally, saying it’s never going to happen unless Lindsay cleans up her act:
Newly single Lindsay Lohan may not want to get too psyched about playing Stevie Nicks on the big screen.
In an interview published Thursday, The New York Times asked the 60-year-old Fleetwood Mac singer — who battled a drug and alcohol addiction — about reports that Lohan, 22, wants to buy the rights to Nicks’ life story and play her on film.
“Over my dead body,” Nicks snapped. “She needs to stop doing drugs and get a grip. Then maybe we’ll talk.”
In the new issue of Us Weekly, Lohan — who is currently serving a three-year probation term for her second DUI incident — insists, “I got in trouble, but that’s in my past and that was a long time ago.”

Lindsay is reportedly broke after squandering all her money on drugs, rent, fast cars and luxury goods so it’s not like Nicks has anything to worry about. Lindsay couldn’t buy the rights to Nicks’ story even if she had the ability to play her. Nicks battled a cocaine and tranquilizer addiction for years and knows what she’s talking about, so maybe Lindsay should take her advice, try to clean up and give her a call. She doesn’t have much to lose at this point and she might get some helpful advice.

Well, on the bright side, thank God Lindsay Lohan went back to red hair. lol
Uh, LiLo playing Stevie Nicks?? Can Lindsay even sing? Her delusion knows no bounds.
No kidding G. maybe she thinks it will be her ticket to that Oscar!
Did you ever see Ashtray face sing “Edge of Seventeen” on the Mtv awards a few years back? Horrible. Like smoke coming out of a farting hippo.
Yeah, what business does that cokehead have playing another cokehead ? Wait a second…..
Nicks needs to get off her “high” horse.
She was widely reported to have had a serious jones back in the day.
No kidding. This is judgemental and hypocritical of her.
I think Nicks had a fried chicken addiction also,,,that’s why she was always in those billowing skirts in her videos.
I love Stevie Nicks.
And she didn’t say “never” she said for Lindsay to get off drugs and “they’ll talk”.
Maybe if more people were as frank with Lindsay, she wouldn’t be in the position she’s in now. I actually feel sorry for her now, but I wouldn’t want her to play ME in a movie in her current state either…
LiLo has had more chances in this year than many will get in a lifetime. She just ignores all the good advice and then whines when people stop giving it, crying they have abandoned her. While I think her upbringing played a part in her ego issues, shes had enough time in the world to know how it works by now.
I say, grow the hell up little girl and be responsible for your own actions, the rest of us have to be.
well, lindsay can’t act, can’t sing and always looks filthy, so it’s no wonder stevie doesn’t want her in the film.
Stevie Nicks is 60 years and still kicking a$$ in concert. I went to a show of hers not that long ago and she was incredible. Lindsay Lohan was washed up and over before she even hit her late 20’s. That she would even consider playing Stevie is laughable.
Why would they cast a scrawny, orange girl to play Stevie Nicks?
Well, we all know that Stevie had her own problems with drugs in the past and everything. But, c’mon, the woman is the sh*t. She’s amazing. How come the little Lohan tramp would ever do her any justice?
See what I mean? Lindsay is completely delusional. She keeps trying get involved in things
much above her own league. I wish this filthy thing would lock herself in rehab for the next 20 years and never come back.
When someone who used to take cocaine UP HER ANUS (in order to protect her vocal chords) thinks you party too much, then you probably party too much.
See, Ms. Lohan? Get your career back on track, and start making headlines for your work and not your dramas.
(And FWIW, Stevie doesn’t look a day over 40.)
I thought Lohan was going to be a big hit way back when, but it seems she is afraid of success. Maybe she should just stay home and find an everyday job like the rest of us and make herself happy again.
I like Stevie but she can sound like a bleating goat at times.
Fantastic Site! I wondered if I could quote a portion of your site and use a handful of things for a school assignment. Please drop me an email whether that would be fine. Thanks
