Lindsay Lohan blows the lot
HOLLYWOOD superstar Lindsay Lohan is BROKE after blowing her fortune on a massive orgy of booze and drugs. In recent months the wayward actress has squandered a staggering SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS on her wild partying. And now the 21-year-old is so skint she can't afford her own place—and has become a lodger at a rich pal's mansion.

Her extravagant spending spree includes:
  • A MILLION dollars on just one hotel bill
  • $137,000 in rehab costs as she battles her hopeless addiction to drink and drugs
  • THOUSANDS more in legal fees after multiple drink driving convictions.
We can reveal that after jetting back to Los Angeles this week following her two-month stay at the Utah's Cirque Lodge rehab clinic, Lohan is staying in the guest house of billionaire Tom Gores, executive producer on her recent film I Know Who Killed Me. A source close to the star revealed: "Lindsay doesn't have much choice as she is totally broke. The only reason she's coming back to LA, is to earn some money fast. She still thinks nothing of blowing thousands of dollars on a single night of partying. And the amount she has wasted putting cocaine up her nose is disgusting. Even she has lost count."

Lohan quickly earned millions from films like Mean Girls and Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen—but she has spent it even quicker. She lived for most of last year in Hollywood's opulent Chateau Marmont hotel, spending $450,000 on her $1,200-a-night suite, as well as another £500,000 having chauffeurs on 24-hour standby. Added to that were endless bottles of Cristal champagne at $550 a pop—until the unpaid bills got too much and she was evicted.

Hard-up Lindsay has had to sell both her plush properties—a $2.85MILLION apartment in LA, plus her $1MILLION New York flat—because she could not manage to keep up with the huge mortgage payments. Another $350,000 has gone on luxury Mercedes and BMWs, followed by huge bills for expensive lawyers to defend her on drink-driving and drugs charges. She spent $1MILLION on clothes, $70,000 on tanning and hair-styling and well over $500,000 on partying.

#8 A potential bin Laden recruit? Self-hating, attempting slow-motion 'accidental' suicide, no direction or 'meaning' to her life. Typical cult fodder. The pattern is way too common in Hollywood, as well as among others who are too rich too soon.

#13 The irony is the crazier she getes the less marketable she is. She may not be able to afford the wild life and it may save her life. Assuming her friends/fans/freaks don't enable her when she's got nothing but her name.

John Holmes did so much coke he couldn't get it up but he had to get it up to afford the cocaine. Catch-22.

#14 She needs a little violence in her life to balance out the easy money / party-all-the-time lifestyle. Beat her and kick her for an hour or two every day till she gets it.
My bill is in the mail.

#15 So...what the hell did this broad do to get all this dough to lose in the first place? Does notorious drug addicted drunken teenage slut pay that well?

#16 She was the teen queen for a number of years. Most adults didn't notice her so much but the teens were buying movie tickets. Freaky Friday and Mean Girls were tremendous successes at the box office. Soon after that she lost it.

#18 I have two questions:

1. How can you make $7 mil by staring in a Herbie car movie?
2. How can you blow $7 mil like that?

Think about the kids in Iraq and Afghanistan and how un-complicated their lives are while someone is trying to kill them every day compared to this retard. I have no sympathy for such a retrobate. She needs a missionary more than the Congo.

#19 I think she may be my ultimate woman.
A wee bit high maintenance for a grad student's budget though.

#21 Looks like its time for Lilo to adopt a kid from Africa and say something important about global warming. She will be back in like Flynn in 30 seconds.

#22 Don't sell yourself short bigjim. I think you're right in her league --- you got enough cash for a dime bag or even have a can of pledge lying around she can huff in your closet?
