There are very few red-headed celebrities, so no one will forget the adorable freckled red headed, Lindsey Lohan. Lindsey was born on Long Island in 1986, and this was where she made her big break. As early as age 3, it was obvious Lindsey was destined for success when she booked a contract with Ford Modeling Agency. Ford Modeling Agency helped her book roles on over 60 TV commercials, and she was the face for several large corporations such as The Gap, Pizza Hut, Wendy’s and Jello-O.
Soon after becoming a successful child commercial star, Lindsey moved on to bigger and better things as a TV star. Lindsey was then featured on television shows such as Another World, Healthy Kids, and Guiding Light. Then in 1998 Lindsey booked her first and biggest movie role, starring as Hallie, and Annie Parker in the remake of The Parent Trap with Dennis Quaid. In 2000, after her big break into movies, Lindsey starred in two made for TV movies, Life-Size and Get a Clue.
Lindsey’s rise to fame continued. She starred in Freaky Friday with Jamie Lee Curtis in 2003. Freaky Friday was Lindsey’s biggest movie success, pulling in $160 million at the box office. In 2004, Lindsey’s star roles in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen and Mean Girls all together pulled in $170 million.
By the age of 18, Lindsey started to experience some career “interruptions”. Lindsey started becoming infamous for her attitude towards the paparazzi, and extreme partying. Lindsey was reportedly participating in mass amounts of underage drinking and drug use. In 2007, Lindsey checked into rehab. People magazine quotes I have made a proactive decision to take care of my personal health," she said. "I appreciate your well wishes and ask that you please respect my privacy at this time”. Lindsey has been in and out of rehab dealing with her drug and alchohol issues, and I wish the best for her. Her newest movie, I Know Who Killed Me, is due to release in the summer of 2009.
