R.I.P.
Lohan Distraught Over Ledger's Death

TMZ has learned Lindsay Lohan was seen sobbing inside La Scala with friends DJ AM and Samantha Ronson -- as the group consoled each other after learning of Heath Ledger's death.


Our cameras tried to get comment from Lohan about her former party pal's passing as she left the restaurant, but she was silent, and hid her face from cameras as her driver drove off. We're told the two were "very close" for some time.

32. Why can't these people just STAY HOME and mourn like any other human being? Why does Lindsay have to go out and make a scene and make it all about Lindsay. What a stupid little twit. RIP Heath.

34. "...was seen sobbing inside La Scala..."

It does make one wonder why one would hang out at a high-profile public restaurant to do their mourning rather than go somewhere private?

35. Mourning or not I don't know-it looks to me like she hit her head on the car. Thats when she grabbed her forehead.

36. i think that it's really tactless that you're trying to hunt down anyone connected to him. give people a few HOURS at least to mourn. you think that they want to be on camera right now!?!?!!? step back shiitttt

37. Of course she would find a way to make this about her. She couldn't "mourn" at home? Disgusting.

38. Wow, I never thought I'd be standing up for Lindsay Lohan but GIVE THE GIRL A DAMN BREAK! She just found out a friend of hers died, and you guys have cameras all up in her face telling her "Hey Heath died, any comment?" Yeah, I'm sure she has a comment for you, to give her some freakin space and let her take some time to absorb this.

Damn TMZ.

39. for those of you commenting how shameless it is for lindsay to mourn in a public place - no one has any idea how things played out? perhaps she received the news while she was @ lunch? unless you know that actual events that took place, perhaps you shouldn't comment!i highly doubt that anyone with half a heart would mourn for the media.

Posted at 8:45PM on Jan 22nd 2008 by now for real, are you kidding me??

40. Oh... she did hit her head getting in... that was kind of funny. R.I.P. Heath.

41. Come on guys, regarless of who it is, don't you think it is pathetic and sick to be chasing down celebrities who knew Heath Ledger, for some worthless comment? What can anyone say right now that is worthy of the circus that is now surrounding this tragedy?

A NEW LOW TMZ....A NEW LOW INDEED.

42. You going to shove your camera in Michelle Williams' face too? How about you follow his 2 year old daughter around? That might make for a good video. Ease up and have some respect.

43. Nice, TMZ. You report that they were close and then you shove a camera in her face for a comment? Classy. Let people mourn and be respectful for once. You guys are something else.

44. She's not crying! She hit her head on the car as she got in! Take a closer look at the footage.

45. It doesn't matter if she hit her head or is crying. What matters is that TMZ is up in Heath's friends faces asking for comment only hours after he died. I really don't like Lohan, but this is still a new low for TMZ.
