Who knew? Lindsay Lohan modeled herself on Britney Spears.

Actually, now that I think of it, it kinda makes sense.

I mean, why bother modeling yourself on someone like Madonna who's actually managed to keep her career on track when you can just hurtle off the rails a la Britney and Lindsay.

Lindsay says she's only coming to terms with her life in the public eye now.

Oh for god's sake girl. Didn't either of your parents warn you about this?

Jeez. Marilyn Monroe sort of wrote the book on the perils of blonde ambition.

It's not as if the glare of the paparazzi lens is something new.

Personally, I blame the parents.

What were they thinking of?

And in Michael Lohan's case, does he actually have anything to think with?

He's supposed to be palling round with Jon Gosselin now.

WTF?!

Anyway, the good news is that Lindsay intends taking care of her little sister Ali.

Well here's some advice Ali, don't aim for fame. It does crazy things to people.
