LINDSAY
LOHAN
by Lamont Hilliard
You
can say what you want about Lindsay Lohan and many do. The gossip
sheets have turned Lohan-bashing into a cottage industry, and
they have the ammunition to do so because the 19-year-old does
not miss any opportunity to be in the public spotlight. Add in
the fact that she has brought much of the gossip-mongering upon
herself because of the ongoing family difficulties that have been
played out in public and then throw several car accidents into
the mix.
And there is Lindsay LohanŐs problem. While young and successful
is a wonderful combination, it is often difficult to talk about
her without bringing up her drunken escapades. The fact that she
has starred in five films and currently has three more in various
stages of production, and that she has released two albums in
as many years is not forgotten, but also not the first thing one
thinks about when they LohanŐs name arises.
Yet, just like her other projects, Lohan made a splash when she
released her debut, Speak in 2004 and the follow-up, A
Little More Personal (Raw), will make a major first-week impact
on the album chart when those numbers are released.
