I’ve been ignoring Lindsay Lohan for a few weeks. I needed a break and she wasn’t doing anything important/noteworthy anyway. But today is a new day! And Lindsay has provided me with what I consider to be the funniest gossip story of the day. Apparently, Lindsay waded into a political election on her social media yesterday. She posted her endorsement of a Brazilian presidential candidate named Aecio Neves on her Twitter and her Facebook. Don’t go looking for it now, she’s already pulled those posts, although you can see the screencaps here at Buzzfeed. So, why did Lindsay decide to wade into Brazilian presidential politics? She knows a guy who knows a guy. And cocaine. Seriously.
Lindsay Lohan says she has a good reason for supporting a presidential candidate in Brazil … she says her “Brazilian contacts” like the guy — a guy whose company owned a chopper filled with tons of coke.
Lindsay tweeted, “I support @aecioNeves, for presidential candidature. His platform brings positive changes in Brazil.”
Lindsay took a beating for getting involved in anyone’s politics for obvious reasons. But a source connected with LiLo tells TMZ, she’s supporting the guy because “she has plenty of contacts there and has several business trips to the country.” The source also says she has a “good contact” in Brazil who likes Neves a lot.
Here’s what Lindsay’s 8.5 million followers need to know. Neves owns a company that owns a helicopter that was seized by the federal police … seized because it was carrying 4.5 TONS of cocaine. It’s unclear if Lindsay supports Neves because he’s a good guy or just throws a good party.
RIGHT?! This is so completely Lohan. You will never find a more perfect Lohan story ever. Of course she has shady Brazilian contacts. Of course she would end up endorsing a guy who is most widely known for being involved with 4.5 tons of cocaine. Of course she would endorse the guy on her social media only to pull those endorsements like they never even happened, then try to explain it to TMZ like a crackhead.
Here’s another funny/sad LL story: yesterday, Lindsay posted this photo on her Instagram with the hashtag #RIPOscar, for Oscar de la Renta’s passing. The problem? The dress she’s wearing in the photo is Theia, not de la Renta. Besides, that dress was just a loaner and LL destroyed it by cutting it up. Classic.

So.random! Are Brazilians lining up to take political advice from La Lohan? I am much more worried about Brazilians if so. But I doubt it. She just c’ain’t seem to control the crazy
Another day, another famous corpse for Lindsay to attach herself to. And no offense to Brazil, but if u want her she’s all yours.
Did you say 4.5 TONS of cocaine?
Honestly, that was probably wasn’t even an important loss to him.
I recently watch Cocaine Cowboys (great little movie)… and the sellers take into account that they lose shipments.
So he might have lost this one helicopter… but I image another 9 of them got through to their destination. Just the price of doing business.
It WAS 4.5 tons, then Linds staggered by to do a few “bumps”…… now it’s 4.5 kilograms….. soon to be 4.5 grams…..
I hate to even notice this… but Lohan’s face seems to have lost a lot of that bloat. Looks like that serious double chin she had for the last 5 years, has left.
Maybe it was never coke bloat… it was just good ole bloat from all the Vodka instead.
Maybe Lohan gave up Vodka for top shelf coke. And she got a nice kick back from that endorsement… for the Cocaine King of Brazil!
Yes I notice the bloats gone too
Agreed, she looks much better. Hope things are turning around for her.
Aaah Classic Lindsay! From her tweet in support of let’s face it cocaine, to her pic/ tweet about de la renta in a dress he didn’t design, that she cut up anyway. Got to love this girl.
My naivete slip is showing. How big of a damn helicopter do you need to transport 4.5 tons of cocaine? How much is 4.5 tons? Can you zipfile coke?
Think of it this way, TaterHo: An adult female elephant weighs about 9,000 pounds. And I’m pretty sure I’ve tried to zipfile coke before. 😉
Wait. 9,000 pounds? So what is that in tons? Now I have to do maths? Is this a word problem? Is this a helicopter traveling on a train? Are you my 8th grade math teacher? Is that you Miss Scott???
*trashes closet looking for abacus*
Sometimes helicopters carry elephants around, that’s all I’m saying (never forget). I could put it in terms of tonnes of potatoes for you if that would help quell your anxiety. And it’s Miss Jackson if you’re nasty.
*trashes closet for long forgotten bindle*
Mimif, elephants have NEVER tried to zipline coke!! Stop blaming innocent pachyderms, and blame the guilty lohanderms instead. I bet she was flying that chopper.
So that is half an elephant which, yes, would fit in a helicopter.
Isn’t 2000 pounds a ton? I love that Lohan basically said “My dealer supports this guy, so I do, too. Legalize coke in Brazil = positive change!”
Shh you’re going to give Jaderu the maths.
Odd… My 8th grade math teacher was Mrs Scott too.
Size Does Matter put a damn = sign and the word positive in her comment! Great. Just friggin great. Now I have to do algebras. What’s next? Time travel equations?
How many potatoes does it take to power a flux capacitor?
Give this one a haver:
(LL + c) / $ = disaster
*stares blankly and rocks back and forth slobbering on abacus*
*high fives Size* 😄
If a train is traveling at 65 MPH and is carrying 4.5 tons of cocaine, how many times can you have sex with a sofa before you reach a Washington Redskins game?
Show your work and turn in neatly enclosed in your Taylor Swift trapper keeper.
Lmao and the quantitative result is Jonah Hill Liver Lips as Sexiest Man Alive 2015!
%barfs %
Wait! Is the train in Brazil or the UK? And is the sofa good looking or is it more of a mercy shag?
@Size Does Matter
I don’t know about Brazil or mercy shags (I find that Berber carpeting is more merciful) but I will say that the train is also carrying a coconut laden European swallow. nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more
she actually looks good in these pics. Love that outfit in the first pic. she has really been able to milk her short career. imo, she was never really gorgeous but she had a girl next door look. plus the red hair was unusual at the time. i guess she had a boob job back then? what do you guys think? i seem to remember her boobs used to be a lot bigger
What is going on with Lilo’s play? Is she still performing and has she learned her lines yet? She looks thin. Coke does that.
LOL. That’s funny and so Lilo.
I’ve had never heard this story about aecio and I follow politics and vote for him. After I google this, I found a story on a small blog reporting that the helicopter found to have 445kg of cocaine belonged to a company of a congressman that was related to a senator that was na allied of aecio. tmz report is wrong.
Great! So, now the ‘news’ from “sites” which survive with ads from State Companies are being reported not only in Brazil but internationally, too! Soooo glad to see our money being put to so good use.
If it is true and the cocaine was somewhat related to Aecio Neves (even though the congressman linked with the drugs was an ally of the current president, Dilma Rousseff, and Neves is running opposing her), I will have to change my thoughts on legalizing cocaine. If someone can snort the amount of coke his adversaries say he does and can still give coherent and logical speeches and debate almost every day for the last 4 months, I will start to think being a drug addict its good for my lifestyle.
If you Americans think your election period is vile, don’t worry, you got nothing like us. Aecio Neves in sane country would be a center-left candidate. In Brazil? He’s an extreme right wing if I were to believe any of my university teachers. Dilma Rousseff? She gives speeches on stages decorated with pictures of Lenin. We still have a Communist Party! And not only that, they are part of the government coalition, and because of that, they rule over some Federal Departments (no surprise why public services here suck, even more than normal for governmental standards). We are a poor, violent third world country, we give almost half of our income over to the government and receive really, really crap public services, but somehow, Dilma thinks it is a good idea to finance Cuba’s infrastructure while ours is beyond hideous. And I could go on and on…
Sorry for the ramble, I just so tired of this bullshit. For the first time in my life I am seriously considering moving to another country. And I know people say this all the time, specially before elections… But I just fell incredible despondent.
Well said, Thais.
I’m Brazilian, there is stories about cocaine, but never proven. I’m sad to see this Lohan story because we are at this moment in a election war… the government that wants to keep the power wants to transform this country in a Cuba, Venezuela… and we can not allow it. .. since voting here is an obligation, the government says to the poor people that they are going to loose the benefits if they don’t win, like for every child in school, the family receives money to keep the child in school, in order to prevent the child work. .. that is just onr tiny thing that trey are doing… and a total bullshit! For start the party of candidate Aécio was the one who created this kind of program, back in the nineties, through the government of Fernando Henrique… Aécio was a good governor for his state, Minas Gerais…. he has a big political background…. we have hope
Our country lost tones of money through corruption. . Go check Petrobras…. a huge scandal. ..
Brazil is a wonderful country… I ask you all to pray for us, because things are difficult here.. Sunday we are going to vote…
I wish you great luck Fefe. Stay strong, and you do have a beautiful country.
You said you are obligated to vote. What is the punishment for not voting Fefe, and do they take polling stations into the hospitals? Are prisoners allowed to vote? Here in Canada, you are expected to vote but you don’t have to. Our last local election for mayor saw 55% of our eligible voters show up to vote. It was disheartening.
Laura – there ARE articles about tons of cocaine:

Brazilian politics is pretty corrupt, but Lindsay might be endorsing one of the better candidates, actually.
I also agree she looks pretty good (by her standards), the bloat has diminished, her hair is its natural red, no fake orange tan. Progress! Now if she can stop messing with her face, fix those wonk eyebrows, grow them out a bit and have them properly shaped so that they’re symmetrical, and get her hair cut so it doesn’t look so scraggly, she’d look good by anyone’s standards. I would also recommend she work out a bit so she’s toned instead of skinny fat, but who are we kidding, she would never. (although im not one to talk, I can barely do a set of pushups these days…)
It’s in fact 450 kilograms of cocaine! And besides that outrageous fact, the guy built an airport for him and his relatives, on the border of several Neves’ farms, WITH public resources. He also beaten up his girlfriend in a party in front of everybody and have been caught driving UI. That’s some real FACTS.
