Lindsay Out of Rehab and Already Betrayed by Friends

By Rob Shuter Posted Jan 4th 2011 10:45PM

Michael Lohan is sick and tired of his daughter Lindsay's so-called "friends" who, in his eyes, are trying to make money off the fragile actress. The oft-vocal dad tells me he has already given the boot to one acquaintance who showed up at her house with a camera crew just hours after Lindsay was released from rehab.

"I understand why Lindsay wouldn't want people to know she's out of rehab," Michael tells me before calling out Beverly Hills organizer-to-the-stars Linda Koopersmith, who apparently showed up at the star's condo with cameras.

Steaming mad Michael is not mincing his words on Koopersmith, who has helped Lindsay get her Hollywood condo in order in the past.

"She violated Lindsay's privacy, safety and the trust Lindsay had for her. How sick is that?" Michael says. "Lindsay just gets out and already people are using her to promote themselves and make money."

This time, however, Michael vows he won't let it happen. He tells me that he made Linda and her camera crew go away and personally helped his kid move out of her West Hollywood apartment to a new rental property.

Be Warned, Friends With Motives: Michael is prepared to do the same thing again if he sees anyone trying to take advantage of his daughter.

Why can't Harvey Levin leave this poor girl alone? It is disgusting how they hound her. Paris, Britney, now Lindsey. What is Levin, a star whacker? Does he hate Shiksa girls in their 20s?!

By Moonie

This chick is a washed up joke who had it all and flushed it all down the toilet. She's mentally disturbed and she will be right back into the booze and the dope, because she's also an uneducated, arrogant, immature little spoiled brat who will keep it up just to spite everybody else in her mind, if for no other reason. Her parents are first on the list of people who have used her and exploited her for their own attempts to gain money and stardom by trying to ride her coattails. The whole family tree is rotten. Soon her money will run out, and her career is already all but over. That's when she goes Anna Nicole Smith, or worse.

I don't disagree, but there are exceptions. Not one of my favorite people, but look at Robert Downey, Jr.

definition of Rehab: something you do to get remorse from, Judge, Family , friends, and fans. Success rate of 12 step meetings=3%, they claim 10%, but they omit a little something, 10% if individual stays for ONE YEAR! That means if u stay 4 ayear you have a 90% failure rate! Get God out of the equation and focus on reality. No one ever cured cavities praying to the tooth fairy!

Why do people still care about Lindsay Lohan. She's old news and off the radar.

By L.M. Alter

Did her "friend" show up before or after E! told us?

By Pete Aiello

She's going to last a week at best. Then, back to the booze and drugs. GUARANTEED !

speaking of leeches..Mom & Daddy Lohan have greatly benifited from Lindsay's money and fame also..

By Brian

Seems odd that daddy would be wearing a shirt & tie on moving day. Maybe daddy contacted the press.

By Dennis

Lo Low ... try porn . But leave the farm animals alone.

By Lynnie

He really seems like he's straightened out his act and he's trying to help his daughter. Her mother had control over her all that time and was taking her to clubs LONG before she was legal. I think a lot of LiLo's beef with him is just an extension of her mom's issues. Her mom's mantra has been that everyone is to blame but her. Dad's been saying start being accountable and get better. He has a lot more credibility to me than her mom ever will. Her mom's her biggest leach and enabler.

Total agree!!!

By silverband

True enough. She has made really bad decisions, in the past. If rehab is to have any credibility, you have to give her a fair chance to make good. In any event, this is her life. Why are people so interested in this little girl? Mainly because their lives are so pointless that they have to cast stones at someone else to make themselves frrl something. I say leve her alone to get her life together and the rest of you need to get a life!

By howard

Betrayed by Friends. Lose the s, One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatines.

By What?!

The way her parents slobbering over her. tsk tsk Their money tree.

By YellowRose3218

Lindsay already has made a huge mistake. One of the basic rules in rehab, is not being around any of the old running drug using buddies. So she moved in next door to samantha.
The very same 'girl' she used to party with.
I give it one month, Lindsay will be in jail, or worse.
I hope I am wrong.

By gigster

once again..... he's talking about his daughter.....

My question is,"How does she have any money left?" Surely, she's had to pay court costs, lawyers, not to mention, money for drugs, alcohol, entertainment, travel, and extravagant lifestyle." She's not getting hired because she's an insurance risk. She'll probably have a reality show. She's got leeches for parents. Why do we care? Maybe, because Daddy notifies the media.They have the other daughter and the mom who already had a reality show or something, didn't they? Dad has been in the pen. She's the Judy Garland of the 21st century.

By BarbaraAnn

Well BooHoo!! Lohan has betrayed each and every fan she ever had, who loved her, made it possible for her to have the successful career she "had" and squandered and the lavish lifestyle she so selfishly wasted! I don't feel a bit sorry for her! She is a pathetic excuse for a human being and does not deserve anymore favors or breaks!! I am sick of hearing about her and wish she would just go away and the paparazzi would stop putting her mug everywhere we look!!
