Cloning Nicole, or, Who Lindsay Wants to be When She Grows Up

I don't usually blog specifically on celebrities, but sometimes things just get really weird and something has to be said. Lindsay Lohan seems to be having an identity crisis and the rumors are flying. Some say she thinks Jessica Simpson is getting too much attention as an "actress" for The Dukes of Hazzard, or that Lindsay is not getting enough attention as a singer (I didn't even know until this week that she had a CD out...whatever). So apparently she has decided to twin herself with everyone Hollywood. Or ostracize them: i.e., the Simpson sisters (can Jessica and Ashley really be related???), who she apparently ostracized from her party (initiating tabloid roulette and the wrath of Jessica and father Simpson), Hillary Duff, who she is apparently trying to keep out of the press with her own "late" appearances (causing the press to miss their flight to Duff's item), and so on. What else has Lohan done that is weird? Let's see:

1. Lost an exhobitant amount of weight (right alongside Nicole Richie)
2. Rumored to have an eating disorder (as is Nicole Richie)
3. Dyed her hair blonde (like Nicole Richie -- well, and Jessica, and Paris, and...)
4. Attached herself to (or accessorized with?) Nicole Richie
5. Started dressing like...you guessed it! Nicole Richie

Hmm. Does this sound to anyone else like Lindsay wants to BE Nicole Richie? (Aside from straddling the rift between Nicole and Paris to vie for bridesmaid positions.) I mean, even her boobs don't play themselves in her new movie! (And WHY WHY WHY is anyone making another "Herbie" movie??? It was totally uninteresting the first go-round, and doesn't look like it letting go of the lame factor for Theater 2005. Anyone???) The only thing she hasn't managed to do is snag (and keep) a man, but she is apparently chasing everything in pants and the alleged Simpson and Duff rifts seem to stem from "someone else" getting friendly with her exes. Let's see...girl with identity crisis, skeletally thin with (now) no figure, hateful to anyone who doesn't give her her own way, and professing her love for Eminem...I don't see why she would not be prime guy material!

I think she might have "died" her hair for an upcoming movie. What I like is that anyone who comes in contact with Paris (Nicole & Lindsay included) start taking pictures with a hand on the hip, facing slightly sideways, and tilt head up a little bit.

What distubs me about this whole thing is the fact that you "read" all of those magazine and are on the net just as much as I am yet you didn't know she has a CD out. It's been out since like November or so.

Yes, they're all a bunch of media whores.

As for "those magazine[s]," I only started reading the gossip type mags recently. Before that it was Elle, Harpers, InStyle, and Vogue. But apparently you get more handbag action in the rag mags...so I have been picking those up for the last few weeks as well. I had no idea she had a CD out, or could even sing...although the two are not necessarily related. She was cute when she was little, but pics of her emaciated body crammed into a tiny bikini showing off her new tattoo and a cigarette hanging out of her mouth is not what I consider sexy.

And let's not forget she thinks she's Lady Di now after her "paparazzi crash." She does know Di DIED, right? Not quite the same thing.

Good to know. I haven't heard her sing anything, and since The Parent Trap I have not seen her act...nor do I care to.
