And here you go, loyal readers: in LiS' tureless pursuit of bringing you the finest images possible in the world of journalism, here is Lindsay Lohan's mugshot, a mere eight hours after it was taken. Perhaps not up there with the falling man but, you gotta admit, it's a keeper!
One of LiS' friends says it looks a little like Sienna Miller. Another suggested Goldie Hawn in Private Benjamin mode. But... but... look a little closer. That washed out blond hair, those pale eyes... Sweet heavens that's not Lindsay, it's her mother, the famous talkshow host Dina Lohan! She just gave her daughter's name to the cops for the extra publicity! Dina - respect!

Sometimes, while over a whiskey sour or two in the Groucho, people will ask me and Marina, "Hey, why did two hot chicks like you get into the grubby world of journalism?" And we'll say, "The freebies." And then we'll say, "To break the kind of stories to the world that will cause ripples of shock around the world." And then we'll say, "The money." And then we'll laugh. Hysterically.
And today, we are living up to the second dream well and truly. Number one: Britney Spears was reportedly "behaving oddly" on a recent photoshoot for OK! And secondly, Lindsay Lohan has been arrested again. I know. I KNOW! If it wasn't tragically shutting its doors, these are stories so extreme in their unlikelihood one would think they emerged from the pages of Weekly World News.
To the latter first, LiLo was allegedly arrested at 2:15 this morning by Beverly Hills PD. Alcohol "may" have been involved, narcotics "maybe", too. Where was that big chunky anklet she's been wearing all over town, that's what we want to know? Honey, it's like Miuccia Prada once said: accessories can only go so far, the rest is up to you [insert fist in the air gesture.]
And as for Britney, well, you know the score: according to tmz.com the photos are terrible (eyes rolling back in her head, blah blah blah); frequent disappearances into the bathroom, her dog "relieved" itself and Britney cleaned it up with a Chanel dress. To which we say, so the hell what? Sounds like an average morning in the LiS office.
