Lindsay Drinks 'Cause Her Parents Stink

Posted Apr 22nd 2008 11:50AM by TMZ Staff

Sources tell TMZ the source of Lindsay Lohan's recent downslide is her parents.

We're told Lindsay has been humiliated by her dad Michael going on national TV saying he got shortchanged in his divorce case. He's on a campaign trashing Dina. As for Dina, Lindsay can't believe she's pimping out Ali on a reality show. We're told that is what led Lindsay to hit the bottle Saturday night in NYC.

Ironically, we're also told Lindsay has been taking sobriety seriously, requesting a sober companion on the set of her new film. People around her are telling her not to go to clubs but she's ignoring them -- but it's not because she wants to party. Lohan is really really tight with DJ Samantha Ronson, who works in clubs -- and Lindsay is there for Sam, not the scene.

Will Lindsay go back to rehab? No plans just yet. Will she downslide or conquer? Stay tuned.

2. I'm not buying the excuse thing, she getting drunk because she's hanging with a dirtbag. Sure her parents are cockroach infested maggots, but she just kept hanging out at clubs night in an night out. If you keep going sooner or later you're going to drink. Lindsay this is your responsibility and not others you're a grownup now act like one.

5. She drinks because she is an alcoholic, not because of her parents.

6. EXCUSES, EXCUSES, EXCUSES!!! A PERSON IS ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR OWN ACTIONS. YOU CAN NOT BLAME OTHER PEOPLE FOR WHAT YOU DO. ONLY REAL LOSERS BLAME OTHER PEOPLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS. AND FOR WANTED TO PARTY WITH THE D.J. THAT IS ONLY ANOTHER EXCUSE TO BE IN THE SCENE. DOES THE D.J. HANGOUT WITH LINDSAY ON THE SETS OF HER PRODUCTIONS??? EXCUSES, EXCUSES, EXCUSES FOR BEING A TOTAL LOSER.

7. Shes a downfall. She cant blame the things she does on her family. She controls HER not her family. She just needs to drop out of the limelight!

8. This is all on you Lindsay, not your parents. Your parents are gutter rats, but you're the one hanging out at the clubs every damn night with your so-call buddy. Growup and act like a adult.

10. So the only way to be there for your friends is to put your life at risk. As someone is recovery I think she needs to evaluate her life and stop blaming her parents. Time to grow up Lilo.

14. You can't blame your parents (no matter how negligent they are) for your CHOICES! It's time to finally take some responsibility for your own career and life demise, noone wants to hear it...we've all got issues and we all have the choice on how we deal with them so give us a break and quit blaming Mommy & Daddy...how old are you????

15. This is one sad family. This girl just needs to take a long break from the LA/Hollywood scene and focus on having a real life. www.thehatlounge.net
