Someone actually supports Lindsay

Lindsay Lohan leaving Las Palmas nightclub in L.A. (5/5)

You may find this hard to believe, but someone famous actually supports Lindsay Lohan. For those of you keeping track at home -- not counting herself and immediate family members -- the Team Lindsay member count now stands at . . . "one." From In Touch Weekly:

Hot director Robert Rodriguez may have taken a gamble by hiring wild child Lindsay Lohan, 23 — for what some are calling a last-chance role — in the upcoming film Machete, which also stars Robert De Niro. But the director claims the troubled star is a victim of bad press: “Lindsay isn’t any different from any girl her age,” says Rodriguez. “She has the same problems that a lot of our daughters have, but she’s in the public eye all the time. I’ve seen them carry some other girl the same age out of that same club and nobody cares a damn.”

As much as it pains me to say it, Robert is absolutely right. I mean, who among us doesn't know a 23-year-old who has a $600,000 balance on their credit card, and five arrests and three rehab stays on their record? Besides the crushing debt, arrests, and rehab stays, you're practically describing my 20s.

Perhaps Rodriguez should get together with Billy Ray Cyrus, because they both seem to have the saming thinking.

Rodriguez should just stick to making movies. He sounds like a moron when he defends this trashy mess

Yeah tell that to Rose McGowan was told the same thing three years ago. Bad press, comeback role, blah, blah blah...

Since then...the only thing Rose is doing is the same freakin' movie LL will be in directed by Rodriguez. LOL

Much of LiLo's bad rep is as the result of Evil Sam and her bad of terrorist PR flacks spreading lies and malicious propaganda. She is insanely jealous of our LiLo's beauty, fame, talent, and inner goodness. Only LiLo cared enought to go to India and save the children.
