And she's average at best in the looks dept.....go figure
from www.nydailynews.com - The judge who sent Lindsay Lohan to jail did not take a machete to her career.
The 24-year-old actress was sentenced to 90 days in jail and 90 days in rehab after violating her probation following two DUI arrests in 2007.
During those six months, Lohan will be unable to promote her fashion line, 6126, or work on the five films she is currently attached to.
Yet Lohan's comeback still appears to be on track.
The troubled starlet's most eagerly anticipated role, as porn star Linda Lovelace in the indie biopic "Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story," is not in jeopardy, for one thing.
In fact, the movie's writer and director told the Los Angeles Times he is "100%" behind his leading lady.
"Not moving on, not recasting, not under any circumstances," Matthew Wilder wrote in an email to the Times on Tuesday, adding that the movie is "fully financed" and ready to go.
Meanwhile, producers who have been trying to woo Lohan for Willie Nelson's "The Dry Gulch Kid," will reportedly keep busy with their music video work until she is free again.
"We're behind her," Kerry Wallum told The Associated Press. "We'll wait until all of this blows over."
The Times reports that LiLo likely won't be available to work until the fall at the earliest. That means she probably won't be able to promote her upcoming role in Robert Rodriguez's "Machete," which premieres in September.
Lohan already has wrapped her stint as a gun-packing nun in the Mexploitation flick, but the filmmaker refuses to comment on whether her absence during its promotional tour will affect the film's success.
It also had been rumored Lohan would star in "One Night With You," a satire about an actress plagued by public scandals, but now, according to the film's producer, "Things are up in the air."
"It just comes down to if she could be bonded," John Edmonds Kozma told EW.com.
While Hollywood publicist Michael Levine told FoxNews.com that Lohan can no longer get insurance because "she is too much of a liability,” the executive vice president of Aon/Albert G. Ruben, a leading entertainment insurance broker, said that is not entirely true.
"Anything is insurable," Douglas Turk told the Hollywood Reporter. "It's just a question of price."
Still, Lohan's reported firing from "The Other Side" in April suggests her notoriety has kept financiers from backing her. According to the Hollywood Reporter, insurance for risky celebs like Lohan can run as high as 3% of a movie's budget, even if financing already is in the bag.
"If you have Lindsay Lohan as an 'essential element' in the picture, that will require the producer to put up more money to hold back to insure that it gets completed," Turk told the industry website.
But one insider told MTV.com that Lohan’s tears in court may help her in the long run.
"Is Lohan more marketable now?" wrote Jeff Wells of Hollywood-Elsewhere.com. "Will raising the dough for 'Inferno' be a tad easier? I would think so."
