Lindsay Lohan: Dad ‘Threatened to Kill’ Mom

Bang — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 14:00:08 +0000

Lindsay Lohan claims her father threatened to kill her mother.

The ‘Mean Girls’ actress, who is seeking a restraining order from dad Michael Lohan, is furious with him for leaking old phone calls between herself and him to the press and has hit back with some new claims.

She wrote on her Twitter page, “He’s a deadbeat dad. He’s disgusting to do this, he needs help.”

Speaking about his relationship with ex-wife Dina Lohan, Lindsay claims she didn’t leave him, despite an abusive relationship, because she was terrified he would take her life.

She said, “She blames herself for staying w/him for so long. She didn’t leave because he always threatened to kill her if she did. (sic)”

In one of the phone call tapes released by Michael, his eldest daughter can be heard sobbing, “No one cares about me . . . It’s about how they feel, not how I feel. It’s not about me. It’s never been about me, unless I fight for it.”

Although she is furious about the leaked calls, Lindsay has vowed to move on with her life and doesn’t want Michael to be a part of it.

She wrote, “that I even have to share this w/everyone, but I haven’t had a real relationship w/Michael Sr. In years . . . I just hope I can show others how to be strong through times and to be able to stand up for yourself and loved ones no matter what! (sic)”

Michael has previously claimed he is only speaking out about his daughter because he is concerned she is addicted to prescription drugs and wants her to go to rehab.

He said, “I want my daughter off prescription medication. She never needed it in her life… I’m not going to watch my daughter die. Hate me now, but you love me more later because I’m gonna turn her life around.”

Lindsay Lohan Restraining Order Against Dad

Bang — Mon, 19 Oct 2009 08:35:33 +0000

Lindsay Lohan wants a restraining order against her father.

The ‘Mean Girls’ actress is reportedly “scared” by Michael Lohan’s behavior and is seeking legal action to stop him from contacting her.

A source told People, “Lindsay is actively getting a restraining order, her lawyer has already been contacted. She’s scared. This is really serious.”

This news comes a day after Michael, who has recently spoken out claiming the starlet has an addiction to prescription drugs, told gossip website X17 he wanted to “kidnap” his daughter and take her to an isolated location to help “get her straight”.

He said, “I’m going to see the judge this week. If I can’t get a conservatorship, then I’m going to take her to an undisclosed location and get her straight. But I know I’m gonna get charged with kidnapping.”

Meanwhile, Lindsay’s mother Dina has slammed her ex-husband for criticizing their daughter on TV.

The reality TV star, who divorced Michael in 2007, has spoken out about his parenting skills and says he should focus on being a father to their children instead of discussing their personal lives with the world.

She told People.com, “Michael Lohan needs to focus on being a parent, paying child support, of which he is six months behind, and making up for all the years he was an absentee dad. And stop going on national television talking about his children publicly.”

Jon Gosselin, Michael Lohan pitching ‘Divorced Dads’ reality show

Paul Short — Fri, 31 Jul 2009 20:14:27 +0000

If you read the tabloids, it’s common knowledge that John and Kate plus 8 super-dad, John Gosselin has been hanging in the Hamptons with Lindsay Lohan’s dad, Michael Lohan. They seem to be best buds, but they have also been working on an idea for their own reality TV show that will center around the trials and tribulations of being divorced dads.

Page Six reports:

“JON & Kate Plus 8? womanizer Jon Gosselin is shopping a new show based on being a single dad, sources said. The Gosselins have earned as much as $75,000 per episode with “Jon & Kate,” but insiders said most of the money goes toward the kids, and that Jon is hard up for cash. “He’s looking for endorsement deals to get that extra money,” one source said. Hollywood broker Mike Heller is trying to help Gosselin. Fame-mad Michael Lohan introduced Heller to Gosselin (Heller used to broker deals for Lindsay Lohan), and told us he helped brainstorm a new show, “Divorced Dads Club.” But our insider insists, “Michael will not be involved,” adding, “Jon has been approached to do various reality shows, but due to his contract with TLC, he can’t begin to think about doing anything right now.” Reps for both TLC and Gosselin declined to comment.”

So Jon Gosselin, the same dude who pays about $5,000 a month rent on a swanky New York apartment, jets around the world for expensive vacations with hot young skanks and was recently seen in NY buying a pair of $1,000 shoes… is hurting for cash?

We hope he does get some work soon, because helping to support 8 kids and keep up his current lifestyle ain’t gonna be cheap.

Lindsay Lohan Brings Her Leggings to Elle Photoshoot

Meieli Sawyer — Sun, 14 Sep 2008 22:09:22 +0000

I might hate Lindsay’s horrid leggings, but I don’t hate the fact that she’s giving away all her sales proceeds to charity. It’s even forgivable that she managed to sneak a pair into her recent photoshoot with Elle and get all vampy in them.

If only brand 6126 had just skipped the knee pads and promoted the charitable side of things, perhaps we wouldn’t have been so shocked when they sold out this summer.

Lohan Feud Temporarily Halted

Meieli Sawyer — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 17:05:03 +0000

It looks like the Lohan feud machine is going to stop chugging along quite so smoothly now that Lindsay Lohan’s paternal grandfather has passed away from colon cancer.

It’s a severe understatement to say that this has been a bad week for the Lohans, but Michael somehow found time to talk to the press, telling OK! that “My father just, literally, died in my arms. I notified all my kids and my lawyer notified Dina’s attorney. Let’s see if she has the decency and respect to bring my kids to the wake and funeral.”

But then (of course) Michael threw in a zinger, stating that “THIS will show [Dina's] true colors! Thus, not even a call. But that’s par for the course with Dina! She didn’t even send a card or visit when he was sick.”

What’s disturbing is that Michael’s still taking time out of the ol’ sched to talk to the press about his father passing away. Who’s “In Control” now?

Our condolences go out to Lindsay’s family.

Michael Lohan Strikes Back at Lindsay and Sam

Meieli Sawyer — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 23:27:52 +0000

Wow. I’ve started to feel like I’m in the Lohan’s living room witnessing the. biggest. fight. ever.: thankfully, I don’t have to be anywhere near Michael Lohan to get the gossip. That’s good, since he sounds one step away from crazy while dealing with Lindsay and Sam’s most recent retaliations.

While the first paragraph below is a must-read, I’ll give you a short synopsis of Michael’s charming response: Dina’s a “two-face,” Lindsay doesn’t make any money now, and everyone’s “out of control” except him (because he goes to church and helps people, you know):

“‘Who’s out of control? Whose life is out of control? Give me a break. Going from place to place, being dragged around by Samantha so she can make more money off of Lindsay being there when she spins … She’s gone from making $7 million to less than a million a movie. Who’s out of control? I go to church. I go and help people in rehab. That’s control. How can she say I’m out of control?

I want Lindsay to be in a good place. When I started looking at what Samantha was doing, dragging Lindsay to clubs, drinking around Lindsay … Samantha is one of the biggest problems in her life. That’s what Dina told me. I’m reacting on what Dina said, but then Dina steps out of the picture because she wants to look like the good guy.

Dina’s a two-face. She wants to try to look good and stay on Lindsay’s good side instead of being a good parent. I don’t give two hoots about my relationship with Lindsay as a friend. One day she’s going to turn around to me and tell me, ‘Daddy, you were right.’

If they’re going to say I’m lying, I’m out of control, I’m going to show that they’re lying and they’re out of control.’”

Let’s play a game. How many times does Michael Lohan say “control” in that first paragraph, and does that really signal that someone’s got it together when they do that?

Answers: 5 and no-effing-way.

Michael Lohan vs. K-Fed

Meieli Sawyer — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 17:56:04 +0000

In another daring attempt to get us to care about what he’s doing, Michael Lohan has announced plans to spar with Kevin Federline in an OK! Exclusive.

I’m glad to report that Kevin wasn’t his first choice, but Richard Johnson of Page Six. Is anyone surprised that Richard promptly refused? Michael commented to OK! that he didn’t actually care who is was, which must have been totally flattering to Kevin Federline. Michael continued by saying that “Everyone wants me to fight K-fed because he’s a notorious celebrity dad and so am I.”

It’s not about who will win, but who will fight dirtier, for sure. To Michael’s credit, he will be helping people, with donations going to Long Island’s Fight for Charity.

I still feel sorta bad for Lindsay Lohan, though. As if her life wasn’t complicated enough.

Lindsay’s Lesbian Ways Down the Drain?

Meieli Sawyer — Sat, 16 Aug 2008 04:27:04 +0000

Lindsay Lohan and Sam Ronson, despite matching tattoos, might be headed towards splitsville! Does Lindsay want to move on after all? From the busybody sources at OK!, we’ve got a full scoop coming our way:

Apparently LiLo has already been flirting with guys, and cracks are seem to be appearing in the relationship. On August 5 at the Delano Hotel’s Florida Room, Lindsay, 22, cozied up to other men whenever Sam left her side. ‘Lindsay was laughing and giggling with these guys,’ an eyewitness tells OK!.

Naturally Michael Lohan had his own say on it, stating that “The situation is between them.” Yeah. Yet somehow he’s still bothering to comment on it at all?

Lindsay Was in Bike Accident, Says Dad, Rep Disagrees

Meieli Sawyer — Mon, 28 Jul 2008 21:08:04 +0000

Lindsay Lohan is a magnet for drama, and I totally blame her dad for stirring the pot when she’s finally getting boring (in a good way).

According to reports, our favorite drama girl was clipped by a motorbike and had to make a stop off at Beth Israel in New York, and her father confirmed it to the NY Post by saying that she was hit “outside a club on 32nd Street” and that “She’s not hurt. That’s all I really care about.”

Oddly enough, Lindsay’s rep has denied the accident, saying “I spoke to Lindsay and she said nothing happened.”

If she had been wearing her kneepads, she could have been protected from some bumps and bruises. Maybe they are more useful than we had thought. . .

Lindsay Lohan’s Secret Half-Sister To Be Revealed!

Meieli Sawyer — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 05:56:04 +0000

Michael Lohan loves to blab, and I pretty much ignore him. However, in this case, I’m going to pay more attention to Mr. Lohan in the next week or so. . . since he has revealed that he had a child by another woman after his separation from Dina (but while he was still married, mind you)!

Why didn’t he dump this on us sooner when he was yammering on to all the tabloids about I-don’t-even-know-what? This is dirt, and I like it:

“Years later [the woman] contacted me, convincing me that I was the only person she was with and that she had my child.”

It does sound a little bit creepy when Michael starts talking about how much his daughter looks like Lindsay, but we’ll soon see for ourselves, since OK! will be publishing the photos next week. This is probably the first and only time that I’ll be intrigued by the Lohans.
