s her daughter’s manager, Dina received 15 percent of her earnings. She received no support from her then husband, Michael Lohan, a former Wall Street trader who spent years in jail for criminal contempt in a securities case, attempted assault, and D.U.I.
The very nature of celebrity was changing, with the advent of reality-television shows, which made “stars” of people with very little to offer except the ability to draw attention to themselves. Feeding this new Internet and tabloid gossip pipeline, L.A. nightlife became flooded with some highly ambitious young women who seemed hellbent on becoming the biggest stars of all—or “starlets,” as they were now being called— sometimes for having done nothing more than appearing on a sex tape.
“Like, I was going out almost every night,” Lindsay told me. “Because I just thought, Oh, it’s what people do. And everyone I knew was going out, so what was I gonna do, sit home by myself? So that’s why it became O.K. It became like a routine.” No wonder. “These girls would call the tabloids on each other—tell on themselves,” said the young woman who was a part of the scene. “They were always fighting for attention and over boys and stealing each other’s boyfriends.” Lindsay herself was “linked” to an improbable—and improbably long—list of conquests, including Jude Law, Jared Leto, Bruce Willis, Christian Slater, Colin Farrell, Johnny Knoxville, Benicio Del Toro, and director Brett Ratner .
“He’s put myself and my mother and my mom’s parents through so much hell,” Lindsay told me, “from the death threats to throwing shoes at my grandfather’s head and giving him a concussion to threatening to kill my mother in front of my little brother Dakota.” Bloom said Lohan “denies all these allegations.”
She said she didn’t want him there, and didn’t want him near her little sister, Ali, who was in the courtroom. “Oh, that moment where I turned and she was crying—it was heartbreaking.” Her voice cracked and she gasped a little to keep from crying. “I think everyone has their own addictions and hopefully learns how to get past them,” she said. “I think my biggest focus for myself is learning how to continue to get through the trauma that my father has caused in my life.” Her 2005 hit single, “Confessions of a Broken Heart ,” asked, “Tell me the truth, did you ever love me?”
It's time to forget the past. LiLo's doing good now, VF.
