Lindsay Lohan is set to appear on Ellen today and People has advance details of the interview. The super skinny paparazzi target hasn’t learned since her pitiful US Weekly “I Am So Alone” cover to keep her feelings to herself, or at least to her circle of friends and family and out of the media. Lohan told Ellen all about her breakup, but tried to put a positive spin on it, saying “I think it’s been really good for me.” We’re seeing the pictures of Lindsay and it doesn’t look like she’s been doing well at all for the past few weeks. We may have been inclined to believe her if she chose to lay low for a little while, but she’s been photographed outside handfuls of clubs looking incredibly beat. If she wants to get some semblance of a career back as she claims she’d focus on staying home and staying sober instead of doing the talk show circuit and proving that she’s not ready:
In an Ellen DeGeneres show airing Thursday, Lohan tells the talk show host that the breakup with Samantha Ronson, 31, earlier this month “came out of nowhere.”
“I had no idea what was going on. I just hadn’t seen her in, like, a week. She, like, disappeared,” Lohan says.
Lohan didn’t discuss what may have led to it after a “really tough night” but denied infidelity was the cause. “I don’t believe in cheating on someone,” says Lohan.
DeGeneres said that after her own public breakup, “I kind of lost my career for a little while and I went away … and I literally hibernated and got myself back together.” She asked Lohan if she wanted to run away.
“I feel like I want to get my career back in shape,” she said, adding that being away from Ronson – and not dating anybody regularly right now – may be a positive step.
“You know when people are together so much it gets really difficult and you forget who you are because you’re more concerned about being with the other person,” said Lohan. “I think it’s been really good for me. I thought it would be so much harder and it hasn’t been. My sister’s been here with me.”
And Lohan still holds hope that the split won’t be permanent. “I really care about Samantha and we’ll see what happens,” she says. “Maybe when we’re fully in the right place. And I love her.”

That’s kind of sad that Lohan is making it known that she wants Samantha back. You can tell she’s pining for her and thinks that a reconciliation would solve her problems. Maybe if Lohan was able to quit doing drugs and drinking she would be better able to deal with a stable relationship without all the histrionics. As it is, she’s acting out in the media and using the press to try and get Sam to see her again. When normal people do that by calling, texting, and using mutual friends to convey the message to an ex it usually seems desperate but it can blow over easily once they get over the heartache. In Lindsay’s case she’s leaving a trail that can be googled for years to come, kind of like the rest of the well documented mistakes she’s made. The media cycle is short, though, and she can still turn it around. It’s going to take a lot of work, though, and she’s going to have to try to keep her feelings to herself for a while.

she’s so young…she made all her mistakes in the public light. i’m sorry for her. but on the other hand…she’s got nothin’ that makes her special. she’s just rich. she’s not an artist for me in any way. just a public person.
Why was she on the show in the first place??? She has nothing to promote…ahhh! so confused!
What is wrong with this girl?
I used to like her. Not anymore.
When was the last time Lindsay actually did something that warranted positive attention? As distinct from the attention she’s had for the last couple of years? Why are people like Ellen indulging her – all it will do for someone as self-absorbed, destructive and unwilling to take responsibility for herself as Lindsay is, is add fuel to her illusions that nothing’s ever her fault and she’s on eof life’s eternal victims. All adding to her delusions that she’s still hot property.
For someone that thrives on attention and chaos, all Ellen is doing here is feeding her many bad habits. Cut off her oxygen and she might have some small chance of redeeming herself.
don’t be so harsh the girl is only 22..and she seems never been in love before ..give her a break
Dear god, she is SKINNY. Her legs are frightening.
Yeah her legs do look really bad in that pic… and her side boob flaps yesterday weren’t much better–she looked like a granny!
She needs to stop whoring this break up.
Sweet baby Jesus. So disappointing that Ellen, who’ve I’ve always liked, is yet another “adult” exploiting Lohan’s instability.
Like an amiable vulture, feeding off fresh road kill.
I dont know…I kind of see Ellen’s point. When you go through a massively emotional break up where the relationship is your whole world, you do kind of fall apart. Lindsay is just doing it in public. You would think someone around her (family!) would pull her aside and say “hey lets get out of town for a little while” rather than the whole everything is fine thing she is trying to fake. I feel bad for her so I won’t judge
She’s got nothing to offer so she has to get her fix of publicity by whinging and crying about her breakup – it’s the only vaguely relevant thing about her.
Her legs look hideous and she NEEDS A WASH!
Like most of you I’m over Lindsay, but I do wonder if she has a borderline personality disorder —

ellen’s just trying to promote and strengthen gay pride, i guess. sam ronson’s the cutest boy i’ve ever wanted.
ellen sucks as an interviewer. i’m sure she will throw her some softballs. put her on howard stern, then maybe something interesting will come out. otherwise she is a boring, washed up, emaciated, orange, dirty faced, sad person.
If she was really so determined to jump start her career, she’d shut up. This can’t be helping.
@kxx: Totally agreed on whoring the break-up. Enough. Already.
On the other hand, I suspect Ellen was being charitable by having her on the show when she has nothing to promote. Ellen was probably just being nice to her, you know, giving her a break. Just a guess.
I really don’t think she’s dirty like a lot of people say – she has LOTS of freckles. She uses cheezy self-tanners. The two don’t mix, and then the results do not photograph well. I doubt it’s actual dirt. Well, I suppose one never knows…
Don’t know about the Borderline Personality Disorder– she’d need a bit more of the self harm, suicide attempts, threats, etc., but she definitely has psychiatric issues.
What I can’t stand about this trick is that she can’t remember what she says day to day. Dlisted has a clip of the interview where Ellen asks her about the InTouch or US cover of her “So Alone” and bitch plays it off like it was made up. She GAVE them that interview and photo!!! Being a hypocrite is the least of her problems, but it annoys me more than her cracked out look and delusions of a career comeback.
I’ve been reading a lot about the “New Narcissism” with this generation and Lindsay is its posterchild. She simply doesn’t have the coping skills to deal with any of lifes curves.
You see? Too clingy.
And Lohan needs to learn that you don’t go around to talk shows and magazines proclaiming you are happy and in a good place. It just shows you’re not. The way to handle that is to just “be” and live your life. Go on about your everyday business (that which doesn’t include club hopping or drugs). People will see that she is okay instead of her telling people she is.
I hope she gets it together. Ellen can probably relate to her more, so I would hope Lindsey would use her as a mentor. She needs one. Her mother doesn’t cut it.
Wow, you guys are really going hard on Lindsay, calling her all kinds of names and attacking her personal character. Now, let’s see everyone get all up in arms when Jamie Foxx or some other comedian rags on her! “She’s ONLY 22!” “She didn’t deserve that!” “What an a-hole!” “Let’s boycott his movie!” Such hypocrites on this site. I swear!
Ditto Geronimo
Yeah, she is 22. Which means she is an adult. Its time to put on her big girl panties & get on with her life.
Aside from that, I’m Bi. I was in a lesbian relationship for over 5 years before I met and married my husband. There’s something about the emotional connection between two women…it’s inexplicable. But if it’s your first lesbian relationship when it’s over…it’s usually devastating. If Samantha merely lost interest and decided to move on…it won’t be so easy for Lindsay to do that.
When she first started dating Samantha everyone commented on how “normal” she seemed now. She was slowing down with the drinking, drugging, and partying. She was…HAPPY! Being part of a relationship probably gave her a feeling of purpose and love that she wasn’t used to. Sam wasn’t pimping her career or using her for money (like her parents and Wilmer Valdemera(sp)). She probably FELT as “normal” as everyone was saying she had become. To have that feeling and then lose it…I’d say she’ll be pretty miserable until she gets into another relationship. Sad but true.
Anyone remember how Anne Heche cracked up after she and Ellen broke up?
Actually I don’t think that Samantha just lost interest I think her family did an intervention.
While I’m sure Samantha is no angel I think the couple together wasn’t a good match. They weren’t good influences on each other.
I like your comment Bodhi.
It’s time for her to put her big girl panties on!
i doubt that lindsay has borderline personality disorder. i think she is just another victim of too much, too fast. her mother obviously never said “no” or gave her any boundaries, and she got caught up in the fast lane of fame, alcohol and drugs. she is spoiled and clueless, and she she needs serious rehab ASAP.
I can’t believe ANYONE would fall for this LOL. She doesn’t deserve your sympathy, she doesn’t want it – all she wants is your attention. And not in a “crying out for attention” kind of way, rather in a “I cannot live without being in the tabloids every single day, it’s all about me me ME ME ME.” It’s why she alerts the paps to her every move (and I can’t believe people still believe she doesn’t. Mindboggling.)
Save your sympathy for people who actually deserve it. This twat is not one of them.
why NOT attack her personal character? or, rather, lack thereof?
she’s a useless, narcissistic no-talent, who constantly plays the victim.
she had the makings of a good career, despite the lack of talent, and she threw it away on peen, drugs and partying. what does that say about her character?
whether she’s a borderline, schizo, narcissistic, alcoholic, troubled, spoiled etc etc is debateable… one thing is for certain though, she’s only human like the rest of us… but that’s about all the sympathy i’ll give her… i’ll leave the rest to family, her friends and god…
Gah!
Is she on the Mia Farrow/Ghandi diet?
Mangia! Mangia girl!
Why is it everyone goes for the borderline diagnosis? If she had any personality disorder, I’d say she smacks of Histrionic Personality Disorder. To a tee.
But in reality, she’s most likely just a young woman suffering through depression and bad parenting, and using heavy drugs to numb her feelings of inadequacy. Not atypical for most 20 somethings of my generation – the major difference being LiLo allows herself to be treated as a commodity, and shows no shame in doing so.
I do feel sorry for the bitch. . . but when she goes and opens her mouth . . .
Exactly JaMac!
I’m sorry — I’m out of the loop — is Lindsay a lesbian or bi-sexual?
The ego this girl must have to think the world cares about her love life. Sad. Pathetic and sad. And desperate, don’t forget desperate.
I do think there was some sort of co-dependency going on in the Sam-Lindsay insanity. Theirs was not a very functional relationship.. but Sam did seem to actually care about Lindsay, and since Sam’s brother Mark already had lots of connections in the music industry, Sam didn’t need Lindsay for the fame.
I do think the Ronsons stepped up with a kind of intervention. Sam’s little “I’ll follow you out of control” song combined with her walking-dead appearance probably set off alarms in the Ronson household. And with half-sibs and step-sibs included she’s part of a clan big enough to watch her VERY closely.
I think both girls have addiction issues.. I doubt Sam walked away only under her own power.
And there is the difference between the two girls…. Sam has a family where someone at least has a brain and a heart. Lindsay has a faux-mily of fameseeking jerks. Breakups suck and I felt sorry for both of them, but I never doubted that Sam would be ok.
Listen to Ellen, Lindsay! Ellen has been there and knows what she’s talking about!
I am not sure why did he publicise her breakup?What did she get out of it?
One thing I’d prefer to say is that before obtaining more computer system memory, take a look at the machine directly into which it could be installed. In case the machine will be running Windows XP, for instance, the memory limit is 3.25GB. The installation of a lot more than this would merely constitute some sort of waste. Make sure one’s motherboard can handle the particular upgrade amount, as well. Great blog post.
