Lindsay Lohan has been keeping a relatively quiet profile as of late, or at least quiet for her.? Only a handful of incidents where was fall down “sober” is a pretty impressive feat, you gotta admit. She’s been in London for a few months preparing for her?theater debut that no one honestly figured she’d pull off.
But the first run was this week, and Lindsay managed to not only show up, but not pass out on stage or steal the wardrobe (yet).? Of course, the reviews are mostly terrible, but I think that is just because people need to seriously lower their Lohan expectations.
When Lindsay Lohan was cast in the London West End revival of Speed-the-Plow, it made a lot of people wonder what the hell the producers were thinking.? I get wanting to hire someone with a bit of controversy, bring up ticket sales and shit, but you kind of want to make sure the actress you hire to star in your play will actually show up to work and you know, act.? And Lohan is pretty infamous for just being MIA, no matter how she promises otherwise.
But, shocking many, Lindsay pull her shit together enough to actually appear this week in the first run of the play.? Not only did she get there, she looked halfway decent.? Now, as far as her fulfilling her duties of remembering lines and shit?? Well, it would be a sure sign of the upcoming apocalypse if Lohan?managed to both show up AND do her job well.
According to multiple sources who attended the play, Lohan not only had her prop book in her hands during the whole thing, she needed prompting from the sidelines.? It was so ridiculous that people in the audience began openly laughing at her, especially at classic times such as when a?costar?had to say the line “You are doing a fantastic job” to her.? One woman apparently even loudly exclaimed, “Oh my god, it’s so embarrassing.”? No bitch, embarrassing was wasting an entire evening watching Liz and Dick and being genuinely disappointed.? I should have known better. Stupid, stupid.
Of course, there were a few sources (aka, one of Lohan’s multiple drug dealer friends) who said Lohan actually was quite good.
?She was just fine, she did forget her lines a couple of times but covered it up like a pro. She was a pleasant surprise for sure. Lindsay's character was quite interesting and she immersed herself in the role, she was very strong in the second scene which was her biggest one. She looked amazing? I was in awe of her. It was no means a perfect performance and she's certainly no Judi Dench, but she wasn?t awful. There is a line where she says ?I know what it is to be bad, I've been bad? and the audience all cracked up laughing but she got great applause in the curtain call and someone passed her flowers from audience.?
Uh, yea.? Here’s a picture from the play.? I don’t know if “amazing” is the adjective I’d use to describe Lindsay’s appearance.? Even on her best days now, bitch looks a few years away from an AARP card.? Cocaine is a bitch.
And this was her walking into the theater before the play started.? When will this girl start spending any of her money on a halfway decent self tanner?
Oh, and the flowers she “surprisingly” received at the end?? That was most likely Lohan’s best 30 seconds of acting the whole evening.? “What?? Me?!? Aww you shouldn’t have gotten me these flowers I specifically picked out this morning!”
Some people are saying when the play begins its actual run soon, Lindsay will know all her lines and it’ll be fine.? If you truly believe that is going to happen, and your name isn’t Dina Lohan, I am here to let you know that you are suffering from a severe case of Fucking-Wrongitis.
