Lindsay Lohan: Back to Jail -- Can She Be Saved?
According to CNN.com, Lohan will start serving a 90-day sentence in jail on July 20th for violating the terms of her probation in a DUI conviction back in 2007. Lohan has been ordered to spend another 90 days in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program after her jail time has been served.
CNN reported that the director of an alcohol counseling program testified that Lohan had missed nine counseling sessions in the past six months and that the prosecutor said that it was reported that Lohan "kept making up creative excuses" for not attending the sessions.
CNN's In Session team reports that Danny Bonaduce, child actor of the television show, "The Partridge Family," who now has his own talk radio show, does not think that a rehab program will help Lohan. Bonaduce is forthright about his own long-time struggles with substance abuse. (To watch the interview between In Session's Mike Brooks and Danny Bonaduce, click here.)
In 2007, Lindsay Lohan's co-starred with Jane Fonda in the film, "The Georgia Rule." In an interview with Kam Williams at NewsBlaze.com, Fonda said this about working with Lohan: "She has an ability to access her emotions that's very beautiful. She's made me cry several times when I'm giving her the offstage lines. She's made me cry and she's very moving."
CNN.com stated that an emotional Lohan sobbed as she spoke to the judge, claiming that she did "everthing (sic) that (she) was told to do and did the best (she) could."
Was this tearful display of emotions a way to attempt to make the judge cry, as she was able to do with Fonda? The judge certainly was not swayed by Lohan's performance in court.
Will rehab be something that can save Lohan's career? After all, if she didn't have these constant substance abuse problems, would anyone even know who she is...or care?

Post a CommentThe question is really, why should she be saved. People should just ignore her and leave her to natural consequences.
I am really tired of all this celebrity nonsense. I think many of these celebrities act out on purpose because they know they'll get free publicity, and bad publicity is better than no publicity at all. I think these people will only start cleaning up their act when non-celebrities stop following their every move in the tabloids and on "tabloid TV." Excellent report, Coral!
I sincerely hope that the time she serves will afford her the time to transform from her ways that appear to be so destructive at the moment. cheers :)
Another well written report, thanks!!:0)!
