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.

46. I looked at the video a couple of times to see where she hit her head - she did hit her head but she was not covering up that part of her with her hands, she was covering her eyes. Look real close.

I think Lindsay is genuinely distraught. As much as I enjoy TMZ for fluff gossip pieces, I think they are handling this all wrong. It is obvious as someone said above that TMZ only has dollar signs in their eyes and no respect for the dead or their loved ones.

49. 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.

51. She looks like she's reacting like anyone would upon hearing that a close friend had died. Leave her alone. I've never even met Heath Ledger and I was crying a lot harder than that when I saw this on the news today.

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

54. "Heath just died any comment?" Absolutely filthy, pathetic and sick.

55. 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

56. "...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?

57. 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.

58. ummm...i am sure she is devastated, but at that moment, she is rubbing her head she just whacked on the car.

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

60. 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.
