It seems being late might be the best Lindsay Lohan is able to do, because sometimes she just doesn't show up to sets at all. On the set of 2013's The Canyons, filmmaker Paul Schrader confirmed to The New York Times that Lohan had several no-shows throughout the filming of the indie flick. The following year, the New York Daily News reported that the actress tweeted how she was "too ill to perform" in a London stage production of Speed The Plow, but appeared fine on Instagram — and eventually showed up. And in 2016, she was a no-show for a Christmas tree lighting in the U.K.
Lohan might also have trouble following directions. When
filming The Canyons, she was asked to keep a fresh face with minimal makeup.
Instead, she once showed up wearing a full face of cosmetics with a "Kabuki
quality to it," The New York Times reported, with one film staffer
commenting, "Her makeup looks like it's from a different movie."
She also can't seem to fully recollect her lines during live
performances. Per the New York Daily News, someone backstage reportedly fed
Lohan lines during preview performances of Speed The Plow. However, she
hadn't improved by her live debut, when reports claimed she needed to be fed
five lines. And when Lohan appeared on Saturday Night Live in 2012, MTV News
reports that she was visibly reading from cue cards.
Lindsay Lohan's criminal history extends beyond substance abuse
If you thought Lindsay Lohan's rap sheet ended with drug and
alcohol offenses, you'd be wrong. In February 2011, the singer-actress was
arrested for allegedly stealing a $2,500 necklace from a Venice, Calif.,
jewelry store. That April, she was sentenced to 120 days in county jail,
followed by 480 hours of community service. Once more, due to overcrowding,
Lohan was released after a month and ordered to serve out the rest of her
jail sentence under house arrest. In October 2011, her probation was revoked
after she failed to perform her required community service.
In March 2012, Lohan was accused of side-swiping a car outside
of a Hollywood nightclub then fleeing the scene, but prosecutors didn't
press charges due to lack of evidence — and almost the same exact scenario
played out six months later with an identical outcome. In November 2012,
Lohan was arrested for allegedly punching a woman in a New York nightclub.
Hours after the assault arrest, Lohan was charged with three separate crimes
(giving false information to a police officer, obstructing or resisting an
officer in the performance of his duty, and reckless driving) stemming from
a June 2012 car accident in California, in which she allegedly lied to
police and said her assistant was driving her rental car at the time.
