Gossip & Rumors
Has Lindsay Scared the Bejesus Out of Shirley?

Lindsay LohanLindsay Lohan's weekend antics may just have cost her a plum role with Shirley MacLaine, TMZ has learned.

According to MacLaine's rep, there's actually "no deal" in place for Lohan to act in "Poor Things," produced by and starring MacLaine. The rep added that casting isn't set, and shooting wasn't scheduled to start for a couple weeks.

That's not what we were hearing just this weekend, when several very reliable sources (and the trades) were saying that Lohan was set to begin shooting on Thursday for three weeks, and Still Rolling Productions -- the company producing "Poor Things" -- said that Lohan's DUI arrest wouldn't affect shooting.

We're still waiting to hear back from Lohan's rep, and there's no word yet from the production company as to Lohan's (and the production's) official status.

33. Ok kiddies, let's wake up. Look at the list, Paris Hilton, Tara Reid, Britney, Lindsey, Nicole, and the list grows. Poor little rich kids. Parents to self involved or to domineering on their kids earnings to care about the kid, these are cash cows.

Parents wake up. Watch and pay attention to whom you kid watches and listens to. Pay attention to the words in the music they hear, but attention to your kid.

We make these celebrities who they are and now it's time to STAND UP and end this adiration society of the drunks, the pot heads, the party animals, the crack is wack group and the coke users.

Let's blame society for allowing these over indulged rich kids (oh yes Brandon Davis too) to make the news.

34. Shirley Temple, Shirley McLaine, Shirley Jones, Shirley Eaton, Shirley Booth, and Shirley Bassey were all very talented actresses. They had class. Shirley is like a Good Luck name in the entertainment industry.

Lindsey, Britney, Nicole, Paris, and most of the wannabe whores on TMZ are ending up in rehab and jail because they're nothing more than shallow eye-candy and untalented.

35. Amen to that! Shirley is a superstar, a cinematic legend, and a lovely woman. She doesn't need to waste her energy and talent on a spoiled, out-of-control brat.

36. I think Shirley knows what Shirley is doing...
I think its high time producers..dont hire these drug addicts...and lets face it..
They are drug addicts...what message is that sending out to todays children...and the last thing they need is to have more money..to buy faster cars and more drugs.

Talk about valley of the dolls...

I commend Shirley.

39. I have a feeling Shirley Mcclaine is the type who wouldnt put up with these idiotic shenanaghans for a half a second,

40. Hopefully, Lindsay will remain in rehab for more than 30 days. 30 days is only a drying out time --not a good cure. She surely was not a candidate for outpatient last time. Mama Di find yourself a new bank. Let her grow-up!

41. She needs 90 days in Rehab.

No acting jobs, no clubs and fire all assistants, guard, publislist. If she can ban her Mom for a yaer or two it would help.

Hollywood give her a wake up call.

42. Hey "The Old Stars r Better: Learn some grammar! "your" and "you're" are 2 entirely different things! How dare you attack someone who is just speaking the truth - you have NO IDEA whether Shirley Mc is a liar or not - you just like old people! LiLo and DiLo have shown nothing but class in the whole Tara/Stadman thing. LiLo may have a drinking problem, but she never tried to ruin a 1 year old's bday party! So give it it and give LiLo and DiLo a break. And quit harassing writers who challenge you.

43. I would hope that Shirley would consider that childhood movie stars these days have a lot more to deal with than in the past. Drugs and alcohol reach our children much earlier. There are more pressures than ever before. It would be nice if the public and her piers as well as family embrased this as a cry for help. Lindsay needs love and support. No one wants to be an addict...they just are. I hope she gets the love and support she needs because she is a great artist. This should be treated as an illness...and a life time change.

44. movie productions, like any big ticket production, require INSURANCE and lindsay's situation will prevent them from getting the coverage they require. its just business.
