Corporations are scary!

According to an on-set source, production for Lindsay Lohan's latest film, Poor Things, has been canceled. Fontaine Beauchamp Hebb, a set designer for the movie that was to star Lohan and actress Shirley MacLaine, sent out a biting email to vendors such as GE and Dell who had been promised product placement in the movie in exchange for cash. Hebb wrote (via the New York Post):

"Poor Things' has been cancelled -- Sorry to be the harbinger of bad news, but I just received a call from Jacky Gilardi, the producer, pulling the plug on the ill-fated film. Apparently, Ms. Lohan's antics in Las Vegas over the weekend have scared the bond companies and all of the funding has been pulled . . . I look forward to working together in the future and trust our next project will not be as fraught with difficulty." (Source)

If I've learned one thing in life, it's to trust people with fancy names like Fontaine Beauchamp Hebb. In general, it's served me well over the years. Sure there was that incident with the wallet inspector when I first moved to the big city, but c'mon, who doesn't fall for that scam three times in a span of six months?
