I am on Lindsay Lohan's side for once

Over the years, I've relished ragging on Lindsay Lohan and the like for their excesses, but today I am in an odd position... I am actually somewhat on her side about something.

This has nothing to do with her getting a tattoo or breaking up with someone. No, this has to do with something completely different, or the paparazzi.

There has been a rumor going around for years that Lohan was in the process of either preparing for a role or trying to jump start an entire movie about Stevie Nicks, and it looks like at this point, it may be coming closer to becoming a reality.

And I don't think it is that outlandish an idea. There I said it, I think she can actually do the role justice, as she has had some of the same demons.

Stevie Nicks on the other hand is against it. Not the idea of a movie about her or Fleetwood Mac mind you... just Lindsay Lohan playing her.

"Over my dead body....She needs to stop doing drugs and get a grip. Then maybe we'll talk."

You know, when one of the anecdotes about you is that you did so much cocaine that your nose was starting to get destroyed, so you had to have someone blow the drug up your ass with a straw, something which is now called a Fleetwood enema, I think you really lose the right to tell someone else to stop doing drugs. Or to get a grip.

So this is one of those very rare occasions where I have to defend Lindsay Lohan. She didn't do anything directly to deserve that.

I totally agree with you MC. I read that quote and thought "Who are you fucking kidding Stevie!"

Truth be told, Stevie Nicks has always bugged me. She could have been a lot kinder in this case.

I could not disagree more. Lohan brings nothing to the table except a willingness to be a spoiled drug addled brat with a huge sense of entitlement. She should stick to what she does best, exposing herself and lousy Disney remakes.

D. Prince: Well, there is a quote from two years ago where she praised Lindsay Lohan, so her current comments are sort of weird.

Arjan: Don't mention it (I take it you wish I didn't).

Dr. Monkey: Like Stevie Nicks was never at that point in her career where you could say the same thing about her.
