Lindsay Gets CEO Smackdown

Lindsay LohanUPDATE: Our inside sources tell us that Lindsay showed up on time today. Actually, she showed up a tad early for today's call time. Our source also said that Lohan had in fact missed two full days of shooting.

Rumors are swirling that Lindsay Lohan's hard-partying ways have been taking their toll on the filming of her latest film "Georgia Rule." Her recent visit to the hospital due to dehydration only added flames to the fire. Now Lohan is catching hell from her own producer, who's fed up with her behavior.

The Smoking Gun has obtained a letter from James G. Robinson, the CEO of Morgan Creek Production, to Lohan in which he calls her action "...discourteous, irresponsible and unprofessional." He goes on to say that her actions are those of a spoiled child which has caused her co-workers to feel alienated and "has endangered the quality of this picture." The letter concludes by urging Lohan to be on time and act professionally, otherwise "action" will be taken in order to preserve the integrity of the film.

The letter was hand delivered to Lindsay on the 26th, the same night our cameras caught up with her dodging paparazzi in the passenger seat of a friend's car. Glad to see she took Robinson's words to heart.

151. bottom line is that lindsay is 20 years old. she's going to go out and have a good time no matter what...i'm guessing non of you writing these things are younger than 30 because if you were, you'd remember what it was like to be 20. how many times have you been late to a college class because of a party the night before, or just down right not shown up? I'm sick of everyone saying Lindsay's such a crazy party girl because she does what every single other 20 year old does in this country, only she does it in the spotlight. so just because she's an actress she can't act like a normal 20 year old? leave the girl alone and let her have her fun...

152. I can't, for the life of me, understand all these young actresses of today. Their lack of pure, movie star qualities, their larger-than-life Goddess attitudes; it gets difficult decyphering one career from the other, because in this day and age, the only true focus they seem to have is to outdo the other one.
I have the sweetest dog, the cutest boyfriend, I have the nicest silicone boobs, got me the biggest, out-of-this-world diamond, I spent more on my dress than they did, probably because I can purge more times a day than they can....it goes on, and on, and on....
Then there's Miss Lohan. She wants to be crowned the big-screen queen who can outlast them all, and apparently, outdrink them all, too.
Her Mother is also her manager. I fall short on saying her Mother is a role model. And in her own words, she can't see the harm in Lindsay just being a 20 year old, and having a little fun.
Halting the production of a movie for a couple of days, I would think, is costly, and irritating, when you find out the reasoning behind it.
Her own Mother/Manager seems to endorse this behavior. I heard her own words defending Lindsay last night on the TV. Her Mother is also aware that the drinking age where they are shooting is 21.
The next thing we'll hear is ~ Lindsay is at the Betty Ford Clinic, and her Mother crying in concern about her baby.

I commend Mr. Robinson for the stand he took in his letter. He merely stated the truth of the matter. Lindsay Lohan IS irresponsible. Lindsay Lohan DOES act like a spoiled brat.
Why should Mr. Robinson bare the cost for the lack of self-discipline displayed by both Lindsay and her Mother?
If you can't focus on shooting the movie, don't sign the contract!

If her Mother was a smart business women,( I said IF) and wanted her daughter to succeed in MovieLand, she would better serve her daughter's interests by maybe getting her to pay attention to such persons as Jane Fonda, who is a brilliant, together lady, who has such a terrific movie portfolio, and has been known to share her lifetime of knowledge with others.
I have no desire to sit and watch a movie starring Miss Lohan. I see very little acting ability there.She lacks any substance (besides the alcohol and whatever else she's consuming)
I have polled my own teenager, and other teens, and none can understand the hype over this gal.
I understand Island Records have now dropped her off their roster, because she never showed up once to help promote her own new CD. Does Lindsay even have a 'manager'?
I can hear it now.....
Pink.....Stupid Girls...Part 2. (and rightfully so! *lol*)

153. Its about time someone put her in her place.They should have fined her for every day or being late. Her mother will protect her daughter as long as she gets her cut of the money. She won't last long and as for her asthma. If she takes her meds she wouldn't be ill. Shes just a spoiled brat and it will come back to haunt her.

154. It's time for Lindsay's mother to stop trying to be her friend and be her mother. She should spend more time teaching her daughter morals and values and less time telling any press outlet that will listen that Lindsay is acting like any other 20 year old. If she were my daughter, there is NO way I would defend her not living up to her committments and reckless and dangerous partying. She supposedly has asthma, which she has blamed more than once for hospitalizations, yet she smokes. She has work committments, yet she clubs until 5am and then calls in sick. What kind of example is she setting for the kids who are her fans? And what kind of example is her mother if she is in the clubs with her daughter instead of taking the alcohol out of her underaged hand? There is a time to be "friends" with your child and a time to be a parent, and clearly Dina Lohan has no idea where that line is.

155. I would like to know how many production company CEOs would use the word "bogus". Come on now, is this real news or is it another form of irresponsible tabloid reporting. This letter just does not look or read as though a mature CEO wrote it. I am having problems believing the validity of it. As far as Miss Lohan, I do not know anything about her...if she is as spoiled as she is being protrayed then "she made her bed...she will have to lay in it"

156. Would this chick get a crazed, homicidal stalker already so that I don't have to see her greasy-haired-butt-pimpled-face around anymore? Christ.

157. I'm so glad Lindsey got called on her behavior. I can't blame her for being immature--she got too big too fast. As an aging actor, I can't believe what she is throwing away. Later she will regret it. I hope she heeds this wakeup call, gets serious, and turns her life around. I know that's a lot to hope for, but I wish her the best. Her acting skills are marginal--she needs more training and stage work.
I wish her the best, but she needs to get it under control. Tara Reid is the perfect example of what lies ahead if she keeps fooling around.

158. ew in that photo she looks like she seriously needs to scrape her tongue. Because her tongue looks so plaque infested.

159. Lindsay's on her way to becoming another Whitney Houston. She too was the queen of the music industry as Lindsay is (partly) in the movie industry. Her party life will take its toll. By the time she's twenty five she'll be poison to movie producers-directors and will enter the drug scene..if she hasn't all ready. Get with it Lindsay, your starting to look like a slut!

160. Think the letter from a 70 year old man was spot on.

Remember my father calling me a spoiled brat and I only asked for sixpence for a lucky bag. I was 6, he was 57, add 14 years to both ages, SHE IS A BRAT, SPOILED OR NOT.

161. I'm sorry but what Lindsay does in her personal time is her personal business she is 20 years old meaning there is nothing her parents can do to stop her from doing what she is doing.Sorry not her parents fault people.Priest can't even control their over 18 childern.anyway the letter is not true how could anyone gotten it anyway if it was Lindsay's letter?come on the problem today is people are too concerned about the person in life and not the person on film.
