The Lindsay Trap

The person I want to talk about is Lindsay Lohan, not me or any other Lindsay/Lyndsey/Lyndsay/Lindzy...(Why are there so many different spellings for one name? What set of parents decided to take the original spelling-whatever that was-and go all haywire on it?) Anyway.

  Nowadays Lohan is thought of as a partying, drugged up, maybe lesbian who is constantly in court both in the United States and out for either (A) shoplifting even though she has money (B) drug possession or (C) not showing up to her court dates/ breaking probation.

     But that isn't where Lohan started out at all. in fact, she started out in The Parent Trap. She was cute and freckled, and that husky voice of hers was actually interesting instead of annoying. 

     Then she was a "teen star", being in movies like 'Freaky Friday", 'The Confessions of a Teen Age Drama Queen" and "Mean Girls" it seemed like things were going good for her. One thing I want to point out is that she was the "Star" in all these movies. Her name was the biggest, she was the main character. 

    And guess who the lesser characters were in these movies? In "Drama Queen" Megan Fox was the "mean girl". At this point Lohan was thought of as the bigger star, Fox just a pretty girl there to fill the spot in the movie. Look at where she is now! She is pretty popular, while Lohan-though known-has been in few movies over the years.  

      In "Mean Girls" Lohan was yet again the main character and "biggest actress". Rachel McAdams and Amanda Seyfried starred with her. Both Rachel and Amanda are big-time stars now, starring in box-office films and making big names for themselves.

      Though Lohan claims that her partying days are over, and she is being offered roles such as the part as Elizabeth Taylor, her addictions have already set her back. Lohan hasn't been in any hit movies for so long that she is still thought of as a teen star, while some of the people she starred with are now known as adult actresses.
