Lindsay Lohan's chequered life in the spotlight
On BBC news, this article talks briefly about the transformation of the innocent child star Lindsay Lohan with a seemingly bright future to the scandalous young woman who has just been released from jail on a $300000 bail. She became a model at age 3 and later starred in the Disney movie The Parent Trap and other hits. In 2004, she become the youngest host of the MTV Awards ceremony. It seemed she had a bright future ahead of her...Then she started hardcore partying, over drinking, drug-dealing. In July 2010, she was jailed for probation violation for 90 days. She was released only a few days ago.
I'm sure we all know Lindsay Lohan, either as the adorable mischievous little girl in the Parent Trap or the popular girl in Mean Girls. Without a doubt, she's a talented actress and singer. When I first saw her in the Parent Trap, I thought, "Wow she's going to be so successful in the future!" Little did I know, her personal life become messed up and impure. Perhaps she made bad friends who introduced her to drugs and alcohol. Who you hang out with determines who you become, due to peer pressure.
Another reason may be that the Hollywood life exerts just too much pressure for her. With all the paparazzi spreading rumours and such, celebrities lead a difficult life. They also have to take in a lot of pressure and criticism. We see Britney Spears shaving her head bald, Owen Wilson slashing his wrist, and Heath Ledgers committing suicide. I used to be so jealous of celebrities and how much attention they get, now I have only sympathy for them.
