Lohan Dumped From Movie About Manson  

Posted May 9, 08 11:22 AM CDT in Gossip    Most Covered

(newser) – Lindsay Lohan has been dumped from the upcoming Manson Girls movie—and not for the official reasons being circulated, says Deadline Hollywood columnist Nikki Finke in LA Weekly. Apparently, Lohan has become something of an industry pariah—the producers couldn’t find a single name actress willing to work with her. Lohan was to play a rich surfer girl who became obsessed with Charles Manson.
