Lindsay Lohan didn’t get paid for the budget Ungaro disaster

Does Lindsay Lohan own a bra? I guess not. If she can’t get a bra for free, she’s not going to wear one. Anyway, I hope everyone remembers Lindsay Lohan’s last job, as a “creative consultant” to Ungaro. Lindsay jetted off to Paris for two weeks to “work” on the new Ungaro line, which ended up being pretty horrible. The line was universally loathed, with budget pasties, nipple tassels and tasteless, gross designs ruling the runway. Lindsay seemed to barely notice, at first taking credit for the brilliant designs and spending the next week in a fog of drugs and booze. When someone finally asked her about the disastrous show, Lindsay said she had no idea about the nipple tassels or any of the designs, basically shoving the Ungaro designer under the bus.

Now Fox 411 is reporting that Lindsay did know what was going on in Paris – because she viewed the Ungaro gig as a stepping stone to a paying job. Because, you see, apparently Ungaro didn’t pay Lindsay for anything in Paris. They didn’t even pick up her hotel bills or her plane tickets. The only thing Ungaro gave her was clothes:

Lindsay Lohan might want to think about getting a part time job that actually pays.

Sources tell Fox411 that while the starlet poured her time and effort into her work with fashion house Emmanuel Ungaro for Paris Fashion Week, Lohan, 23, has not been paid for her work.

“Ungaro is not paying her at all to be a consultant for them,” a source close to Lohan told 411. “Her team is working to get Lindsay some form of payment from the fashion house, but right now they will only give her free clothes.”

And while the line was universally slammed by critics, the legendary fashion house seems to have made a savvy business decision in bringing Lohan on board for free.

“The deal is perfect for them – they have nothing to lose, even though the clothes were not a big hit during Paris fashion week. Lindsay even paid for her flight and hotel in Paris,” the source said.

But to add insult to injury, friends also say that Lohan recently learned that Casablanca records has decided to terminate its professional relationship with her.

“Casablanca has suspended all further recording sessions of her album and put their working relationship with her on hold. Lindsay was committed to making music and has been working on it for 16 months. She is going to go what she can to keep her music career going.”

But Lohan’s troubles could become far worse if she doesn’t find paying work soon, especially with her extravagant lifestyle taking all of her money and casting directors failing to take her seriously. Even worse, Lohan doesn’t have trustworthy people in her corner and feels that even her own mother Dina is exploiting her.

“Lindsay is not speaking to her mom and Dina is telling people Lindsay is so busy they don’t have time to talk. Their problems got worse 6 months ago when she begged her mother not to do something with the Shoe Han idea. She was embarrassed and tried to convince Dina that would only hurt her while she tried to make a comeback. Her career is at a stop and she does not have enough money coming in [to support herself.]”

Oh, Lindsay doesn’t care for Shoe-Han! Dina will have something to say about this report now. Anyway, as far as the record deal goes, I honestly thought Lindsay had been dropped from her label a long time ago, so this news only surprises me for the “What took them so long?” factor. As for the rumors that Lindsay is going broke… well, yeah. I’ve been wondering that for a while. I’ve actually been wondering if Lindsay has been paying for her lifestyle by being a cracked-out jewel thief, honestly. And I still think it’s a very good possibility

    Good luck linds. You’re going to need it…. you know that – or some common sense to STOP shopping.

  2. AlaskaJoey says:

    So there was no contract, and no lawyer or manager on her end looking over the deal? Nice one!

  3. Firestarter says:

    How will Shoe-Han embarrass Lindsay more than Lindsay has embarrassed herself?

    Casablanca records? I thought they went out of beeswax in the late 1980’s, after the Bee Gees weren’t so popular.
