We have more stories about Lindsay Lohan’s crack-face/crack-monster cracktastrophe at the amFAR event two nights ago. I can’t even start… no, I can. These are some additional photos of Lindsay coming or going from the event, wearing a budget fur-trimmed coat over her Tom Ford dress. I can only imagine what Tom Ford thought about LL wearing his dress. I bet he bitched someone out over it. LL wearing your dress will always hurt your brand. Would you like to know how LL was acting at the event? Hint: like a crackie.

Lindsay Lohan tried to persuade a wealthy patron to bid on an expensive gift for her in the auction at the star-studded amfAR benefit Wednesday night. The gala, hosted by Sarah Jessica Parker, raised more than $1.4 million for AIDS research at Cipriani Wall Street, and brought out stars including Jennifer Hudson, Elizabeth Hurley and Linda Evangelista.

Spies said that when Lohan recognized a wealthy Canadian financier at a nearby table, she shot over to schmooze him — but then sent an assistant over when bidding on the charity auction began.

“There were items being auctioned for $20,000,” said a spy. “After chatting with the businessman, Lindsay sent over an assistant, who said, ‘Lindsay would very much like it if you’d bid on this item as a gift.’”

However, the gentleman declined. “He just cracked up,” our source said — and the piece, believed to be a Hublot diamond watch with a white alligator strap, went to another bidder.

Lindsay was overheard telling guests she was at the gala because of her role playing Elizabeth Taylor, a major amfAR donor, in an upcoming Lifetime movie. The platinum-blond starlet wore a white dress and a coat with long fur cuffs and long fur trim (bringing to mind a glam, shaved yeti).

She changed into a black number for an after-party at Meatpacking hot spot Double Seven, and chilled in a booth as her mom, Dina Lohan, partied with pals across the room.

Asked about Lohan’s assistant’s request, her rep sniffed: “This is another instance of people making up stories about Lindsay.”

[From Page Six]

I actually think Page Six is under-selling the cracked-out nature of the story. My guess is that Lindsay stumbled over, drunk off her ass and high as a kite, and mumbled something like, “I hear you’re rich do you wanna do something about it? I like diamonds baby. OMG LOOK AT ME.”

Additionally, the Cracken managed to stumble her way over to Woody Allen and Soon-Yi and she made them pose for photos. You can see one here. The Hollywood Reporter says Woody was NOT pleased.

Lindsay Lohan looked more like Victoria Gotti than a Hollywood starlet at the amfAR Gala, the annual AIDS fundraiser started by the late Elizabeth Taylor that routinely opens New York Fashion Week. Everyone on the carpet was buzzing about how tired and drawn the beleaguered actress looked. There was her long, fake, dry hair, and the dark circles under her eyes. An unflattering white mid-calf skirt suit and a long coat with Yeti hair cuffs and hem completed the picture.

But at one point in the evening, Lohan was spotted excitedly talking to none other than Oscar-nominated Midnight in Paris director Woody Allen. Here’s how this tear in the fabric of the celebrity universe happened: It seems Lohan arrived late and did her usual lap to scope out the place. Then she made a beeline for a familiar face, none other than gala-regular Allen and his wife Soon-Yi. The flashbulbs lit up and headlines were made. Neither Allen nor Soon-Yi look particularly pleased in the photos. But Lohan sure does.

We can just imagine Woody saying to himself “Of all the celebrities in this joint — Heidi Klum, Julianne Moore, Rose Byrne, Sarah Jessica Parker Cindy Crawford…”

So how exactly do these disparate celebs know each other? It seems Lohan met the film icon several months ago at agent John Burnham‘s New Year’s Eve party for Allen. Lohan spent the evening hanging out with Allen’s former girlfriend Diane Keaton. The next day, Keaton even tweeted “@lindsaylohan YOU LOOKED BEAUTIFUL LAST NIGHT.”

Trying to explain his relationship with Lohan, Allen later admitted that he was just saying hello to her.

“I had seen her on New Year’s Eve. She was at a party that I was at, and we were just saying, ‘What a coincidence.’ That was the gist of it. I’ve only met her those two times in my life.”

[From THR]

I never thought I’d say this, but poor Woody. Attacked by the crack monster. How pathetic she is. And for my final story – Dina Lohan has a new interview in Us Weekly, which you can read here. She says that her daughters are trying to give her a hair makeover and that Ali’s modeling career is really taking off. Then Dina says Lindsay is “wonderful” and the kicker - “We’re here for all of Fashion Week.” OMG! The Cracken will be all over the place during New York Fashion Week. Prepare yourselves.

I don’t even have the words to describe these photos. Lindsay Lohan was at the amFAR event in New York City last night, and these are some of the spectacularly cracked-out photos from the red carpet. Um. She gave herself bangs. AND SHE’S THE CRACKEN. Dear God, look at her face. Look at her bruised-looking eyes. Look at her nose. Look at her lips. Look at that fried white-blonde hair. Look at how she’s smiling and playing it all up for the cameras. She’s high as a kite and having her picture taken, so of course she’s happy. I guess technically this is a “fashion post” so we should mention her dress? I can’t even look past her face, though.

Lindsay has been front and center this week because of her TWO photo shoots with Terry Richardson, one for Love Magazine and one for… no apparent reason, other than LL was high at the Marmont and Terry wanted to take her picture. She looked especially dead-eyed and pathetic in those photo shoots, but these red carpet photos are a new low.

I also have to wonder – she still has a few months left on her probation, right? I wonder if she skipped out on morgue duty to come to New York just for this event? I wonder if she’ll stay in New York to party for a while too? Valentine’s Day is coming up. She’s probably got some “jobs” to do for some “clients”.

Terry Richardson (otherwise known as “Uncle Terry” or “Pervert Terry”) just published a photo shoot with Lindsay Lohan, taken at the Chateau Marmont. LL is back to living at the Marmont, you know. She moved out of her Venice Beach crack den, and now she’s living (working) out of the Marmont, where sources say she’s back to her old tricks and then some. Some say she’s hooking, some say she’s just giving it away as some kind of cracked-out tit-for-tat for work or drugs. God knows. You can always count on Terry Richardson to exploit it, though.

Uncle Terry did a photo shoot with the Cracken for Love Magazine – we saw the photos yesterday. Some say she was trying to do Marilyn Monroe once again, but I tend to think she was just doing herself, I guess. In this set of photos, I guess LL is publicly campaigning for the part of Elizabeth Taylor still – in several of the shots, she’s holding up the excellent book Furious Love, all about Taylor’s love affair with Richard Burton. Allegedly, Megan Fox was also in the running, but Megan’s camp seems to be shooting down those rumors, while Lindsay keeps telling people that the part is hers. Poor Elizabeth Taylor, being used like this by a crackhead. It makes me sick to my stomach. By the way, I’m just using the Richardson photos where LL is (relatively) clothed. If you go to Terry’s Diary, you can get a look at plenty of shots of crack-nipple and meth-face. This whole photo shoot is just so… sad? Is that what it is? Or is it just pathetic?

Lindsay Lohan shouldn’t even be referred to as an “actress” at this point. So let’s stop with describing her as “Mean Girls star” or “the Herbie: Fully Loaded actress.” Let’s just call her what she is now, and what she has been for the past six years: a sketchy, busted Marilyn Monroe impersonator, an addict, a sometimes pr0n “model” and a cracked-out legal catastrophe.

So the Cracken did yet another photo shoot with Terry Richardson, this time for Love Magazine. Lindsay didn’t even make the cover – she’s just hanging out in her panties inside the magazine. Other outlets are saying that she’s trying for a Marilyn Monroe look, but I don’t even see it. Are we just saying a girl looks like Marilyn when she does red lips and blonde curls? So while I’ll give LL a pass on the “Marilyn” thing for this particular photo shoot, I’m not saying that she even looks “good”. She doesn’t. Her eyes look druggy and her lips are crazy and she really needs to let go of this white-blonde thing. It just looks awful on her. The whole vibe of the shoot is just so busted too – it’s like LL was photographed in between setups for the latest pr0n movie she’s filming in the Valley.

Here’s a question: why do magazines keep arranging photo shoots with her? I mean, they get free publicity because any new photo shoot with the Cracken will get press. But doesn’t Lohan’s presence within a magazine downgrade whatever credibility the magazine has?

A few days ago, Radar had an “exclusive” report that water is wet, the sky is blue, and Lindsay Lohan was doing drugs and getting hammered at the Chateau Marmont. Another day, another pathetic display from the Cracken. Many of us had questions about the incident, but not about the veracity of the incident. Our questions were “Why isn’t she being drug tested?” and “Is she doing meth at this point?” and of course, “How is she paying for this?” The last question was particularly relevant given that LL seems to have completely moved out of her Venice Beach condo/crack den and is now back to living full-time at the Marmont. Well, Radar has some answers – the Cracken is NOT paying to live at the Marmont. A “friend” is giving her a room.

Lindsay Lohan has ditched her condo in trendy Venice Beach because of security concerns and she is currently residing in a room at the infamous Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles for free, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

The embattled actress,25, moved out of her beach residence because of several stalkers that have attempted to make contact with her.

LiLo has an artist friend who bought a room at the Chateau Marmont for a year, and he offered the room to her because he wasn’t using it.

“Lindsay is currently living in a room at the Chateau and not in a bungalow. She has a very close friend that is an artist that has a room he occasionally uses at the hotel. He learned that she was moving out of her condo, and he offered her the room because he wasn’t using it. This is a temporary situation for Lindsay right now. Lindsay’s team is currently looking for a new residence in the area that would offer her more security, perhaps a house in a gated community or a condo,” a source close to the actress says.
A standard room at the Chateau Marmont boasts 300 square feet, a queen sized bed and the standard rate is $435.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Linds appeared to be under the influence at the hotel on Sunday night.

“Lindsay was spotted going to the restroom with a male companion on numerous occasions in a short amount of time,” an eyewitness told RadarOnline.com. “When the two of them emerged from the bathroom, Lindsay was giggling and her nose appeared red. Lindsay was spotted only drinking water in the lounge area, but she appeared to be loaded on something, and she seemed under the influence. Lindsay’s eyes were glassy and her pupils were constricted.”

The actress is currently on probation for her no contest plea in her misdemeanor theft conviction. Judge Stephanie Sautner has ordered Lindsay to complete her court ordered community service at the Los Angeles County Morgue, but LiLo isn’t randomly drug tested.

“We are not commenting on Lindsay’s living arrangements,” Steve Honig, Lohan’s rep told us.

[From Radar]

If this “artist friend” of Crackie’s is renting the room at the standard nightly rate, the annual cost of housing LL is nearly $160,000. Now, I’m sure that the artist friend is getting some kind of discount, considering he’s renting the room with a year’s advance – but still, you’re talking about six-figures, most likely. What are the chances that the artist friend is a john? What are the chances that the artist friend is a pimp? What are the chances that LL is “working off” the cost of the room in a really sketchy, sad way?

UPDATE: There are a few more LL stories this morning, and they don’t deserve another post. First up, X17 & HuffPo claim that LL is dating Henry Hopper, the 21-year-old son of the late Dennis Hopper. They were spotted together on Tuesday at a Venice Beach liquor store “where they fetched a bottle of Grey Goose vodka and Red Bulls… A source also reports that the pair were sharing lovey-dovey kisses while in the vehicle.” However! TMZ reports this:

Lindsay Lohan says there’s NO TRUTH to reports she was boozing at a SAG Awards after party this weekend … and now, TMZ has learned, she’s threatening to SUE the media outlets that published the story in the first place.

A source close to the actress tells TMZ … Lindsay is already exploring her legal options with her attorneys … because she feels the false stories are sabotaging her effort to save her career.

Lindsay acknowledges she WAS at the party at the Chateau Marmot hotel in Hollywood Sunday night … but insists she was sitting with Alan Cummings the whole time and ONLY drank water.

We’re told Lindsay’s also pissed over reports about a recent gas station makeout session with Dennis Hopper’s son Henry (pictured above), where she allegedly purchased Red Bull and vodka.

Sources close to LiLo tell us the actress is adamant the two are just friends … NEVER MADE OUT … and the only items she bought were soda, chips, and cigarettes.

[From TMZ]

Whatever. Water is wet, the sky is blue and LL is a cracked-out, litigious drunk.

We actually got some requests yesterday for coverage of this story. I’m actually struggling to understand why this is news, though. Radar’s sources claim that Lindsay Lohan was a drunken, coked-up cracktastrophe at the Chateau Marmont on Sunday. But here’s my point of view: doesn’t everyone just assume this about Lindsay Lohan anyway? Do we really need “sources” telling us that the Cracken was doing blow in the Marmont loo and that she was falling-down wasted? Isn’t that a daily (hourly?) occurrence?

Oh no Linds, say it isn’t so! Lindsay Lohan appeared to be under the influence when she was at the Chateau Marmont on Sunday night, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.

The Mean Girls star was with friends at the infamous watering hole/hotel and was spotted going to the bathroom frequently with a male companion.

“Lindsay was spotted going to the restroom with a male companion on numerous occasions in a short amount of time,” an eyewitness told RadarOnline.com. “When the two of them emerged from the bathroom, Lindsay was giggling and her nose appeared red. Lindsay was spotted only drinking water in the lounge area, but she appeared to be loaded on something, and she seemed under the influence. Lindsay’s eyes were glassy and her pupils were constricted.”

The actress is currently on probation for her no contest plea in her misdemeanor theft conviction. Judge Stephanie Sautner has ordered Lindsay to complete her court ordered community service at the Los Angeles County Morgue, but Lilo isn’t randomly drug tested.

Lindsay has been arrested for DUI twice, for cocaine possession and has battled substance abuse problems with numerous trips to rehab.

A second eyewitness tells us that Lohan, wearing a plunging v-neck black dress, sans bra, on Sunday night: “was definitely on something. She was slurring her words, and needed help walking at one point in the course of the night.”

A third eyewitness tells Radar: “Lindsay was sitting on a chair adjacent to Harvey Weinstein’s party – his was roped off and she didn’t get past the rope. So she sat on the other side looking over. She looked bedraggled and desperate.”

Negotiations are in the final stages for Lindsay to star in a Lifetime television movie about the late iconic actress Elizabeth Taylor and her Playboy magazine cover earned record sales.

“This is yet another example of people making erroneous assumptions about Lindsay, I seriously question the credibility of any source who refuses to be named as well as their motivations for making up such trash,” Lindsay’s rep Steve Honig tells RadarOnline.com.

[From Radar]

My guess is that Steve Honig was the dude doing lines with Crackie von Cracks-A-Lot in the bathroom. I had kind of forgotten that LL’s probation is still an on-going thing. Why is it that she doesn’t have court-mandated drug tests anymore? Is it because she flunked so many times, the California justice system simply decided to stop testing her rather than actually punish her?

Also – are we supposed to feel a pang of sympathy with LL’s sorry state? “Lindsay was sitting on a chair adjacent to Harvey Weinstein’s party – his was roped off and she didn’t get past the rope. So she sat on the other side looking over. She looked bedraggled and desperate.” Does that make you go “Aw, poor Cracken”? Or do you giggle a little and think “Haha, dumb crackhead”?

By the way, TMZ reported last night – after this Radar report was published – that LL has officially moved out of her Venice Beach crack den and she’s now living full-on at the Marmont. That alone should be a red flag to the judge, right? “Moving into the Marmont” doesn’t mean that Crackie is taking her probation seriously. Like there was any doubt, I know, but how does the judge not say something about this?

Remember back in 2010, when Lindsay Lohan was fresh out of jail/rehab/something, and she had gotten her hot little crack hands on a shiny new Maserati, and within days, she nearly ran over a nanny and a baby in a stroller? Go here and here for the recap – initially, the story was that the Cracken was obviously too cracked-out and entitled to look both ways before making a right on a red. She didn’t see the nanny (with the baby in a stroller), and she clipped them. Radar claimed she didn’t even stop – she just kept on driving. When Radar approached Camp Linnocent about the incident – which was witnessed by paparazzi! – she claimed, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Then, hours later, TMZ magically had a different version of events – they claimed that LL had made a turn on a green light, that the nanny did not have the right of way, so obviously, the Cracken had every right to clip her and the stroller. TMZ also claimed that LL DID stop the car and ask the nanny if she was alright, and then she sped off.

No charges were ever filed in the incident, although it definitely stuck with me as one of LL’s nastier moments (in a lifetime full of nastiness). Well, as it turns out, all has not been forgotten! The nanny who got clipped is now suing LL:

After a relatively drama-free 2012 so far, Lindsay Lohan could find herself back in court soon after a woman has filed a lawsuit against her in connection with a car crash, and RadarOnline.com has the legal documents with details of the accusation.

Nubia Del Carmen Preza was allegedly pushing a stroller across an intersection in West Hollywood in September 2010, when the Mean Girls star flew down the road in her Masserati and hit the nanny, catapulting the baby carrier into the air.

The child wasn’t hurt but Preza is claiming injuries, according to legal papers filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court on Wednesday.

Also named in the lawsuit is Black And White Car Rental, the company that provided the troubled actress with the Masserati Granturism that she was driving at the time of the incident.

According to the papers, the “Plaintiff hereby requests a trial by jury.”

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Lohan was last in court earlier this month for a progress report related to her probation for separate drunken driving and shoplifting cases, where she recieved a glowing report from Judge Stephanie Sautner.

[From Radar]

TMZ’s version is similar, although now they seem to acknowledge that LL did in fact run a red light, so the nanny probably did have the right of way. A witness to the incident told TMZ that the nanny “was in shock and Hispanic so she was scared.” Edit: Some of you are wondering about the “Hispanic” comment – I didn’t make it, and I don’t know what it means. My guess is that the “witness” to the incident assumed the nanny was an illegal alien, and thus, she didn’t want to get law enforcement involved.

Look – you know how much I would love to see this crackhead sued into oblivion and thrown into jail. But that’s just not going to happen with a 2-year-old car accident in which no complaint was ever filed in real time. Don’t get me wrong, I believe LL clipped a baby, I believe she drove away without caring, I believe she was probably high as a kite at the time of the incident. But I also believe this nanny is probably just looking for a payout.

Say something nice. I’ll start. I don’t hate the trousers that Lindsay Lohan wore to court yesterday (which was just a progress report, and LL did well). With a different blouse or sweater, I would probably wear this kind of trouser. But overall, Lindsay’s latest court look was… awful. Crackie. As always. I don’t get the sweater thing – at first I thought it was a belly shirt, but it’s not, right? It’s a color-blocked sweater, and the bottom part is “Lohan corpse” colored.

Can we talk about her boobs for a second? Look, I think I’m probably a cup size bigger than Lohan, so I know what a pain in the ass it is to have giant tatas and to find cute bras that actually fit. But that’s no excuse for consistently going braless, which LL definitely is doing here. Her boobs are in BAD shape. She needs to wear a bra – full stop. I don’t know if Lindsay thinks this braless look is cute, or if she’s delusional about her size or whatever, but she needs to shove ‘em in a 36D and just be done with it.

After that, I can’t even start in with the white-blonde hair or the ghoul makeup or the crack lips. Thankfully, there’s a new story to discuss – a crazy man is suing Lindsay, and he claims that she’s a high-class hooker who was in league with Seal Team 6 or something…? His name is not Michael Lohan.

Lindsay Lohan got SERVED with a lawsuit on her way into court this morning … by an apparently delusional man who believes he played a role in the killing of Osama bin Laden.

TMZ has obtained a copy of the suit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court … which is essentially 12 pages of incomplete, incoherent gibberish.

From what we gather, the man who filed the claim, Thomas A. Green, alleges Lohan communicated with him via Facebook and led him to believe she would participate in a dot-com business he wanted to create.

It appears Green feels he was duped … and when he pressed Lohan about her true intentions, he uncovered a conspiracy about the killing of Bin Laden.

In his suit, Green writes, “[Thomas] set out to command [Lohan] to twitter and stated if [Lohan] acknowledges this is an Osoma Bin Ladden op all civilians in past wrong doing will receive clemency.”

Green also claims he is a former U.S. Marine — who recently spent time in a homeless shelter due to a “depreciated stage of delusion and hallucinations.”

Then, for no apparent reason, he writes, “[Lohan] might be a high end prostitute.”

Green is suing Lohan for engaging in unfair business practices — and he’s demanding $300,000.

But as crazy as his lawsuit seems, Green hired a process server … who served Lindsay at her progress hearing in L.A. this morning.

[From TMZ]

It sounds like Mr. Green was reading our comments! So, let’s correct the record for him: Yes, LL is a hooker but she’s not high-end, unless “high-end” is some kind of code for “trading drugs and party access for sex.” And no, LL didn’t have anything to do with Osama. Unless you want to make a connection between Afghan poppy fields and Lohan’s crackhead status…? My God, it all makes sense!

Seriously, though – how sad is it that this poor Marine isn’t getting better medical care?

Lindsay Lohan is due in court today. Apparently, everything is going down at 10 am PST, which is 1 pm EST, or any minute now. You can see the live feed here at TMZ. I’m not expecting much, and as such, I plan to make my way to the gym this afternoon. Thus, you can treat this post like your “Linnocent Open Post” and discuss all things “breaking news.” According to both Radar and TMZ, LL is doing okay with her structured probation, although the hint of the old crackie is still coming through:

Lindsay Lohan will once again face a judge in Los Angeles Tuesday morning for a progress report related to her probation for separate drunken driving and shoplifting cases.

The hearing, scheduled to begin at approximately 10am PST, is expected to be like her last court appearance — short and without any surprises.

The Mean Girls star, 25, has been working at the L.A. County Morgue and attending psychotherapy sessions in accordance with the terms of her probation — and most importantly, she’s been staying out of trouble.

As RadarOnline.com has previously reported last year, after Lohan repeatedly slacked off on her probation, a clearly fed-up Superior Court Judge Stephanie Sautner imposed a series of tough new rules last November, including monthly updates with the court.

At that time, Judge Sautner warned the troubled actress that if, during any of the monthly progress hearings, it was determined she was not in compliance with the terms of her probation, she would be sent back to jail — for 270 days.

Meanwhile, Lindsay’s comeback continues: after her photo spread in Playboy, she’s now in line to play the late Elizabeth Taylor in a Lifetime movie about the legendary actress, although Megan Fox is also said to be in talks for the coveted role.

[From Radar]

Yes, this is how LL spends her days. She works at the morgue a few times a month, she goes to therapy, she parties at the Marmont, she hangs out with Kim Kardashian at a post-Globes party, and she leaks information about her “jobs” to TMZ and Radar. At the same time E! News revealed that Megan Fox was also up for the Elizabeth Taylor role in that Lifetime movie, LL was telling TMZ that she totally signing on for the part.

Lindsay Lohan is ready to sign on to play Liz Taylor, and she’s going to complete her community service faster than required to clear the decks for shooting the flick.

Lindsay — who will appear in court at 10 AM PT for her probation progress hearing — is in the final stages of negotiating the deal — this according to sources very close to the actress/perpetual defendant. We’re told the plan is to sign the deal early next week.

And we’re told … Lindsay is actually getting more scripts than she’s received in years — apparently producers have noticed she’s finally showing some maturity.

As for today … as we first reported Lindsay has completed the required morgue work and psychotherapy sessions. If all goes well, she’ll be off probation at the end of March.

[From TMZ]

“…According to sources very close to the actress/perpetual defendant.” LOL. “According to one of the crackhead/crack-model’s drug buddies/Mother Crack, The Cracken is going to sign on to a Lifetime movie! FOR REAL.” Pathetic. But seriously, I’m not expecting any fireworks for today’s hearing, so just enjoy these photos of LL at the post-Globes party. I’ll update if anything goes down.

UPDATE: Yeah, the progress report went well. TMZ reports that Judge Sautner “gushed that Lindsay’s probation officer had written a glowing probation report.” The judge also said, “Keep doing what you’re doing. You appear to be doing very well.” LL’s next court date is February 22nd – will she be back to her old crackie ways by then?

If Lindsay stays on track — like she’s been doing — her probation will end on March 29th.

Last week, the horrible news broke that Lindsay Lohan is in ongoing talks to play the iconic Elizabeth Taylor in a Lifetime movie. Indeed, it’s a dreadful proposition to think that a (relatively, in Hollywood terms) classy woman like Liz could possibly be portrayed by a desperate ex-actress who still crashes Globe parties like a crackhead loser. Well, the casting equation has become even further muddled, for now it seems that Lohan has some interesting new competition in the form of Megan Fox. Yes, you read that correctly:

It appears Lindsay Lohan isn’t the only starlet in talks to play Elizabeth Taylor.

Although the Mean Girls star confirmed she is still up for the role in the buzz-worthy biopic to E! News Sunday night at the Weinstein Company Golden Globes after party, we’ve learned Lohan has some competition by way of Megan Fox.

“I’ve been talking to Lindsay Lohan directly, and with her reps, and have been in conversations with other actresses, including Megan Fox,” Larry Thompson, the executive producer of Lifetime’s Liz and Dick, told E! News exclusively.

Thompson declined to elaborate further on specifics of the negotiations, but added that being in talks with more than one actress is not meant as an affront to the talent involved, but rather is simply de rigueur for projects of this nature.

“It’s a very serious selection,” Thompson continued. “It’s like casting for Hollywood royalty.”

And speaking of serious, a source tells E! News that while Lohan is still one of the frontrunners for the role, her probation status is “a complication.”

Lohan, who is on probation until the end of March, is due back in court Tuesday morning to face the judge in a probation status update hearing.

So, when will we know which star nabbed the role?

Rather soon, since the filmmaker plans to start shooting the movie in Canada as soon as this spring.

[From E! Online]

Say what you want about Megan Fox. Although I’ve grown to like her as a person, it’s rather obvious that, as a leading lady, she’s an exquisitely beautiful yet extremely unaware actress. If you think I’m being too hard on her, well, then you must not have seen Passion Play (which by the way, is available on Netflix Instant Watch if you’re curious). Still, Megan is working hard to get back into Hollywood’s good graces with a turn on Broadway plus supporting roles in both The Dictator and Friends With Kids. At least we know that Megan would show up on set every day and show some semblance of professionalism. She lives a quiet domestic life with her husband and therefore wouldn’t be clubbing until 3am like someone else. Also unlike Lindsay, Megan’s completely over the Marilyn Monroe obsession. That’s gotta count for something, right?

And at least Megan looks the part in a more physical sense.

Whereas Lindsay just looks like a crackhead wearing a Liz Taylor wig.
