Never one to miss a trend, actress Lindsay Lohan has bagged herself the latest celebrity accessory: a sober companion to help her stay on the straight and narrow. This so-called ‘buddy’ will accompany her to every party and premiere and ensure she doesn’t fall off the wagon. Again.
Lohan’s bank balance has also got tongues wagging. She’s back in Hollywood and filming Dare To Love Me in a bid to boost her poor finances.
The 21-year-old wildchild has found herself in a sticky financial situation after squandering €5m in the last year and a half on her hard-partying lifestyle. This massive figure includes €96,500 spent on rehab costs in an effort to kick her drug and alcohol problems and a further €246,000 on legal fees. The rest was spent on a cocktail of clothes, drugs, hotel bills and fancy cars that she occasionally treated like dodgems.
Lohan, who has just finished her third stint in rehab, can’t even afford a place to live. She is reportedly staying in the guesthouse of billionaire Tom Gores, executive producer of her most recent flop I Know Who Killed Me, after being forced to sell both her LA and New York apartments because she couldn’t afford to keep up with the mortgage repayments.
