    It’s not a real Cracken story without a pic of her blowing kisses

    • Snap says:

      She’s gonna need a lot of “sick notes” to get off work and be late…lol…the show’s name is very fitting.

  2. Lucy says:

    Well, I am here for Rupert Grint. Always.

  3. detritus says:

    I want to talk about the cancelled bachelor in paradise. Is it because they were violent like the first season of BB? Were they just gross, like every season of Geordie Shore?
    Why is a producer, not the people involved, pressing charges?
    I want to hear all the dirt.

    • Lady D says:

      check TMZ. They are alleging consensual oral sex in the pool, which a traumatized producer had to witness. Quite sordid, dahling.

      • detritus says:

        But, but, but, that’s so tame! I mean, for the typical exhibitionist narcissists that do these shows.
        It must have been one hell of a licking.

    • Lipreng says:

      There was some sort of situation where a female contestant and possibly a male contestant drank way too much and engaged in sex acts. The other contestants and a producer made complaints because they were concerned that the female was too intoxicated to give consent yet production continued to film it.

  4. Twink says:

    Well it’s been years since she had a real incident with the law. It seems like she turned her life around actually. I have a soft spot for her since I grew up with her movies.

    • Luca76 says:

      She was just questioned in the robbery of her ex’s jewelry.

    • DystopianDance says:

      She looks good. Finally lost the my pretty pony hair extensions about ten years too late.

    • jwoolman says:

      I suspect she’s just become better at staying out of legal trouble while still stealing. That’s a sickness that she very likely still has, plus she has a lifestyle which requires more money that she’s able to earn. She might just make sure she steals from friends and lovers rather than shops. She is also unlikely to recover from her chronic lying habit.

      She does look better than a few years ago, so she might have slowed down on drugs and alcohol. Most importantly, she seems to have stopped driving. That got her into a lot of trouble with the law here, she went way beyond DUIs and on to hijacking and terrorizing another driver… She stayed in trouble for years longer than she had to because she refused to follow probation rules and kept getting deeper and deeper into legal trouble. Then she got caught shoplifting, something she undoubtedly had been doing successfully for years. There were stores that had already banned her, but she finally ran into one that actually called the police.

      Plow (while a demonstration of her extreme limitations as an actor) showed she was capable of actually showing up night after night, which was a major advance for her.

  5. Word says:

    Lindsay and Rupert look related in that picture. Like mother and son.

    • Anna says:

      Welp, today has officially been made with that comment. I’ll just be going to bed now, nothing else to see here.

  6. Kitten says:

    Did she FINALLY get rid of the hair extensions? That would be great. She looks so much better without the gross, ratty extensions.

  7. edith says:

    she looks like LeAnn Rimes now

  8. Lillian says:

    Man, I remember in 7th grade when Mean Girls, Lindsay was so beautiful. I was a bit jealous and didn’t love the movie but she’s looks not good. I hate that I feel that way

  9. minx says:

    Well, I wish Lohan the best, but…

    • Etienne says:

      Poor Lindsay had to travel to the UK to find work and forgiveness. Regardless of any hipsterish facade, Americans have become more Puritanical, judgmental and condemnatory than ever. “Burn her at the stake!!!” right?

      • CynicalAnn says:

        She’s a thief, grifter and a liar. But yes, do tell us how “puritanical” we all are.

    • nair waldorf says:

      These people are godawful at best. If that ain’t you, don’t sweat the comments. Don’t forgive others, don’t apologize, don’t extend any olive branches, they just do wannabeism in order to gain traction for THEIR lying, grifting, thiefing selves. No mirror because they think they are cool. A two dimensional appropriation based on taking credit for other people’s lives, too!

  10. tealily says:

    I just assumed to would be some reality garbage… sorry, “rubbish.” I like that short hair on her.

  11. Insomniac says:

    Ew. What the hell did Rupert Grint and Nick Frost do to deserve this shit?

    • Green Is Good says:

      Two talented British actors stuck with a talentless, ungrateful brat. They should get on the phone with their agents and ask “WTF”?

      • jwoolman says:

        They must be looking for free publicity. Lindsay was wooden in Plow and would tune out when other characters were speaking. She can do anger and tears on command, but that’s it.

        Her success as a child actor means nothing – so much less is expected of them. Child actors are typically quite directable, so the success or failure depends very much on the director. But by her mid teens, her lack of sustainable talent was evident, she was always the weakest one in the cast. She had interesting looks but really never matured as an actor. I don’t think it’s just about the alcohol and drugs, although she became quite unreliable as a cast member due to that. Maybe it’s the reverse – maybe she realized she didn’t have the real talent and turned more and more to the drugs to deal with that. Her performance in movies, tv, and even late night show skits since that age has always seemed amateurish, like a high schooler just taking drama for the credit.

        Lindsay has had plenty of opportunities, but she is just extremely limited as an actor. In the current show, they will need to carefully match her to the part within her limitations, as needed with child actors, or else she will drag them all down.

      I know! poor guys, they really don’t deserve this!

    • nair waldorf says:

      Guy worship for the sake of your own demise don’t being real?

  12. doofus says:

    is that her real hair or a wig? because that style does wonders for her…

  13. grabbyhands says:

    I’m going to ignore this and instead concentrate on better Brit TV news – that Idris Elba is filming a new series of Luther.

  14. Sassafras says:

    Wow, she looks middle-aged in that first photo. There’s nothing wrong with actually being middle-aged, but I was surprised by that photo.

    • nair waldorf says:

      your comment looks gay. nothing wrong with looking gay, but I was surprised by your comment.

  15. Tess says:

    She’s been praising Erdogan so she can the stfu and gtfo

    • jwoolman says:

      I doubt that she really knows enough about the situation to have a true personal opinion. She very likely just picks up whatever opinions her friends and companions have. That’s why she’s so variable. She doesn’t have a framework of her own.

  16. nair waldorf says:

    Not hating her is an iconoclastic act. I would guess some people don’t care but the people who hate her like it’s personal don’t comprehend that. At least some of them…
