Lindsay Planning Rehab Photo Shoot to Earn Cash?

Cash strapped
Lindsay Lohan has come up with a way to make some extra money while she is away in rehab. The scandalized star is planning a staged photo shoot documenting her healing that she will then sell to the highest bidder.
"Lindsay hasn't worked in so long that the only way she makes money now is from selling photographs," a friend of Lohan's tells me. "She can make an easy $30,000 to $40,000 a pop for a few hours work. However pictures of her in rehab getting better could sell for as much as $100,000."
This wouldn't be the first time images of Lindsay in rehab have been sold to the press. In 2007 OK! magazine published beautiful images of Lindsay reading self help books and doing yoga while she was a Cirque Lodge Treatment Center in Utah.
"Nothing with Lindsay surprises me anyone," one weekly editor tells me. "You would think she would be focusing on dealing with her addictions not staying photo shoots. But this is who this girl is. She never thinks about the long-term solution but rather is always looking for the quick fix."
Lets hope I'm wrong and that Lindsay is finally seeking help ... not profits.

i am here because of the headline i have no interest in this young woman's antics. but please let the media know that this photo session if held demonstrates this person's desire to ignore the reason she is in this facility. let the media know that they will be ignored and make no money from this photo session. take the headlines away and possibly this young lady may learn she needs to make serious changes in her life.

I agree.....she isn't interested in getting REALLY WELL...... if her only interest is taking photo's and getting paid to be in rehab...... she will NEVER GET BETTER. The media is the one that needs to say NO to paying her for photos while in rehab.
BINGO, you nailed it. If you're going to rehab to get publicity, money, please you're family/courts, or any other reason than to help yourself you will likely fail.
Could she be any less insincere?

...I believe you mean "more insincere", or "less sincere".
Sincere? You haven't ever seen her sincere. This woman is one of the top three losers on this planet. She'll overtake Paris Hilton soon for the top spot.
If this is true then this rehab facility is bad to allow her to manipulate them for a P/R session. This girl has no interest in getting better, this is a game for her.

I'm sure she is, cocaine is probably really pricey in Hollywood.

And, of course, she can depend on the photographers to bring drugs in for her.

After all she's done this year, she still doesn't get it. Rehab is not a photo opportunity, it is serious business.
Look for Linzey Loman's obituary before the end of next year.

Geeez, how pitiful this country and we Americans must be that we would want to pay this person such an amount of money for a frigg'n picture of her rehabilitating. Who give a damn.

What should they report on, this is well, gossip. As for you not giving a damn, to truly show you don't give a damn, the best way to do it is to skip any article about her and don't post. By ignoring the article you don't potentially leave a tracking cookie on your PC from this website or any adds on it. By not posting, you don't up the post count of the message are, thus telling AOL and this site that a Lindasy Lohan article is of interest (and yes, if you posted you did have an interest, even if to just claim you don't give a damn). I'm not trying to flame, I just always find it silly that people post "who cares" or "who gives a damn" when in doing so, they basically show they must care at least enough to post.
She has to have her dope money when she get's out of rehab. Hollyweird and the media are the sickest people on the planet now. The media keep's these sleazy ho's in the press for their doping, driving while drunk, running over people on the street, their stint's in rehab and jail as glamour shots. Who would pay for this photo shoot of this ignorant white trash ho. Also, who would pay money for a mag with this tramp in it. NO ONE. What the hell is wrong with this country, especially hollyweirdo's. They are all crazy, low life creature's that we everyday people are sick of hearing about. NO ONE CARES about these ho's. Lindsay is the biggest joke beside's Paris there is in print. STOP already, no one cares. Just let us know when they are dead and gone, that is all we care about, because we will not have to see them or hear about them anymore.

As a therapist who works with addiction, if all Ms. Lohan is interested in is money then she is doomed to failure. The first step is admitting you have a substance problem. That admission is key to success. The concern should not be with "what's in it for me" or how do I look on TMZ or Entertainment Tonight.
It is because of her alcohlolism, movie producers can not obtain insurance to cover the productions costs if she does not meet production criteria, such as showing up on time for filming or showing up at all. At this stage her career is on hold or perhaps over, simply for the fact that movie producers and investors do not like to lose money and Lindsay Lohan is not a "bankable" performer.

Sick...just sick. If this is all she can think of - a photo op - she'll never get better. She's a lost cause

Perhaps this was Dina's scheme to keep the money rollin' in?
I really don't want to believe that it's Lindsay's idea; I was hoping she would spend this time on herself and then worry about working.

I agree with you 100%+++!!!
This is such a joke. She needs to go to a REAL rehab where they take recovery seriously...not a celebrity retreat.

It does not appear that she actually wishes to rehabilitate herself, nor that she admits she has a serious problem with addiction. Therefore, she had as well do a photo shoot, as the rehab aspect was doomed to failure before she even entered.
Perhaps this young and very troubled lady is so strapped for cash (rehab) cannot be inexpensive - this is a desperate way for her to get some cash? On the other hand - it would be detracting from the reason she is there.
So it appears she is darned if she does and darned if she does not!
She needs to get a life, get out of h'e'llywood and get a job!
