A Shocking Discovery
I’m sure you were shocked, just as I am, to learn that Lindsay Lohan has in fact had both a drug problem AND eating disorder.
Talk about getting blindsided. No one could have seen something like this coming. Sure, you know that at least some of those other “B-list” actresses are probably “using” or “binging and purging.” You know the ones I’m talking about. Meryl Streep. Frances McDormand. All that talent has to come from somewhere, and it’s usually delivered by the snowman, if you know what I mean.
But someone like Lindsay Lohan! This poor girl was able to keep up both a singing and an acting career! Drugs is just not something you expect someone like her to do. I mean, sure, I heard about a party or two that she had attended, but I just figured it was all kool-aid and cookies. Maybe the occasional cider or two. But who could have figured she would have been using drugs?
And I have to say, I’m a little concerned about the other, lesser known victims here. Namely, other teenage girls. I don’t know if anyone’s noticed this, but Lindsay Lohan was a role model for many of them, and they just might be interested in mimicing the way she acts and looks. If she uses drugs, they might think it’s ok to do so!
And even worse, as far as I know, Lindsay Lohan was a pretty skinny girl. But now we hear that she was suffering from bulimia! Other teenage girls, who do look up to her, might not realize that she was doing all those things to look like that. I know it sounds a little extreme, but I’m just worried about their “self-image,” that’s all. Someone should probably look into that, you know?
But really. Lindsay Lohan and drugs and bulima. That’s a sentence I never thought I’d say. Next thing you know, Paris Hilton will announce that she’s been having sex!
