“The agent tried hard to get [Todd] Phillips to consider her,” says the source, “and when he finally agreed, Lindsay said she didn’t like the script!” – Brainiac Lindsay Lohan has an obvious eye for talent.
She was offered Heather Graham’s part in “The Hangover” — which of course has grossed $205 million in the U.S. so far, the runaway hit of the summer, if not year — and she turned it down.
Can her “career” get any worse at this point? Meanwhile, Heather Graham, usually relegated to small parts like — the one in the “The Hangover” — at least showed she can do comedy. Maybe that role will salvage her troubled career (see “Miss Conception” and almost anything she’s starred in this past decade). [US Weekly]
wow. it's only a matter of time before she's going around the country doing autograph shows to pocket some cash.
Why is "news" from Us Weekly even on The Playlist? Why not just make up a bunch of other stuff like "Beyonce set to star in Sex and the City 2" or "'Wild Things' prequel set with Megan Fox starring opposite Lindsay Lohan."
Great ideas, we'll have those up soon, thanks!
worst photoshop job ever.
Why exactly would we be mocking her anyway? It would have been a shitty role to take- would have done NOTHING for Lohan's profile.
Perhaps Gabe, however despite the size and insignificance of the role I guarantee the media would have spun it into "Lindsay's Comeback". I know it's stupid but it's just how these things work, trust me.
Good for Lindsay. Graham has been content to take on ludicrous roles like the one in 'Hangover,' and as stone-cold crazy as Lohan sometimes acts, she's a good actress, and I think at this point in her career she's looking for a role that's not a stripper… been there, done that. It amazes me how Apatow gets saddled with accusations about his one-dimensional female characters, but then Phillips drops "The Hangover" and no one makes a peep.
I think the difference is that Apatow tries to put some female character in there and when it falls short for some he gets those accusations in there. There are large female roles in things like Knocked-Up and Forgetting Sarah Marshall. The females are almost as important as the leads.
Whereas Phillips doesn't even try. He doesn't have female leads in his movies, so then no one attacks him of having a paper sketch. There's no way you compare Katherine Heigl's charcter in KU to Graham's character. One is the 2nd lead, one is like a 4th tier character.
