| Biography of Lindsay lohan celeb pictures:
American actress Lindsay Lohan’s great success in the entertainment industry is due in equal parts to her precocious acting abilities, her tremendous charisma and her wholesome good looks. Lindsay Lohan appeals to fans of all ages, from the raving multitudes of teens and tweens who idolize her, to grandparents who appreciate her easy going, bright demeanor and direct honesty both in films and in the interview seat. But the naked truth is that it isn’t just fans who clamor for Lindsay Lohan: The teenager is one of the most sought-after actresses is Hollywood, her name almost ensuring box-office gold. The talented Lindsay Lohan hasn’t confined her career to the pictures, either. The beautiful young Lindsay Lohan released her first album, Speak, in 2004. With such family-friendly successes as “Parent Trap” and “Freaky Friday” under her belt, the wholesome Lindsay Lohan is not the kind of star to pose nude to grab the spotlight: Rather, Lohan’s public persona is as a fun-loving, but otherwise squeaky-clean teen. Indeed, the spotlight is shining bright on Lindsay Lohan, and it looks like it will be for quite some time. Born in New York City on July 2, 1986, Lindsay Morgan Lohan is the daughter of Dina and Michael Lohan. Lindsay Lohan is no stranger to showbiz – her mother, Dina Lohan, is a former Radio City Rockette. Lindsay Lohan’s dad is a millionaire independent film financier who made his fortune in the pasta business. With her parents nurturing her career, Lindsay Lohan joined the Ford Modeling Agency at three-years-old, and soon she was appearing in television commercials, including ads for such high profile brands as Pizza Hut, The Gap, Wendy’s and Jello – in which she appeared opposite Bill Cosby. Soon, Lindsay Lohan graduated from fast foot to soap – operas, that is. In 1996, Lindsay Lohan wowed audiences with her acting abilities as Ali Fowler on NBC’s long-running soap opera “Another World.” Lindsay Lohan was the third actress to portray the character on the show, but left after the 1997 season: This decision proved to be the first in a long line of smart business decisions by Lohan, as the show only ran another two seasons before it was axed, succumbing to poor ratings. Fortunately, Lindsay Lohan got enough exposure on “Another World” to land what would prove to be the spring board to her fame. First time director Nancy Meyer, working on a big-screen update of the 1961 Disney hit “The Parent Trap,” specially selected Lindsay Lohan to play the role pioneered by Halley Mills in the original film. Meyers called the Lohan family herself to tell them she had chosen Lindsay for the film. Thanks to the magic of split-screen effects, “The Parent Trap” featured Lindsay Lohan in the roles of Hallie Parker and Annie James, twins separated at birth who, after meeting, decide to reunite their parents, played by Natasha Richardson and Dennis Quaid. (Incidentally, in the remake, the twins are named after director Meyer’s daughters, Annie Meyers-Shyer and Hallie Meyere-Shyer.) “The Parent Trap” was a commercial success, and despite early reservations, won widespread critical acclaim. Lindsay Lohan won a legion of fans and a Best Leading Young Actress in a Feature Film-Young Artist award, and also award nominations from Blockbuster Entertainment and the YoungStar awards. The success of “Parent Trap” showed Lindsay Lohan and Disney that their relationship was mutually beneficial, and Lohan signed a three-movie deal with the company. But rather than immediately returning to film, Lindsay Lohan re-appeared on television in 2000, staring in the made-for-tv movie “Life-Size” opposite Tyra Banks. Lindsay Lohan plays the daughter of a single father who brings a fashion mannequin to life to be her mother. Lindsay Lohan followed that role by co-starring with Bette Midler in the short-lived sit-com “Bette” in 2000, but the show failed to capitalize on its star talent, and Lohan soon reappeared in another made-for-tv movie, “Get a Clue” in 2002. “Get a Clue” featured Lindsay Lohan as a well-to-do teen trying to solve the mystery of her disappearing teacher, and was Lohan’s last television role before she returned to the silver screen. Between the failure of “Bette” and her next role in “Get a Clue,” Lindsay Lohan took a brief hiatus to work on her music career, signing a deal for five albums with Estefan Enterprises in September 2002, though her first album wouldn’t appear for two more years. But the hiatus wasn’t a sign of Lindsay Lohan turning away from her acting career: Rather, it turned out to be a break before the dynamo launched a new blitz on Hollywood. Just prior to signing her record deal, Lindsay Lohan was cast in other Disney remake, this time an adaptation of the 1976 Jodie Foster film, “Freaky Friday.” Lindsay Lohan stared opposite Jamie Lee Curtis as Anna Coleman, a teenager who wakes up one morning to find herself in her mother’s body. Freaky Friday was a huge hit for Disney and Lindsay Lohan, making more than $160 million at the box office and winning wide critical praise for both Lohan and Curtis. Curtis won a Golden Globe nomination for her role in the film, and Lindsay Lohan added more trophies to her shelf by winning the 2004 MTV Movie Award for Best Breakthrough Female. Lynsay Lohan’s performance in “Freaky Friday” also garnered her nominations for the Saturn Award and the Young Artist award. After the success of “Freaky Friday,” Lindsay Lohan permanently moved to Los Angeles, sharing an apartment with fellow Disney teen star, Raven Simone. She also struck up a short-lived romance with pop-star Aaron Carter. Lindsay Lohan and Aaron Carter broke up in 2003, when he left her for Hillary Duff, another Disney teen-idol. The event ignited a long standing feud between Lindsay Lohan and Hillary Duff, which graced the gossip pages for months. Next, Lindsay Lohan starred in the disappointing Disney film “Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen,” which was released in early 2004. Critics hated the film, which stared Lindsay Lohan as Lola, an attention seeking teenager in a new school. The film was universally panned by critics, who criticized Disney for casting such a luminous star as Lindsay Lohan in such a dull film. Fortunately, the film died quickly at the box office, leaving room for Lindsay Lohan’s next project, which would prove to be the true heir to her success in “Freaky Friday.” Lindsay Lohan’s next project was “Mean Girls,” released in 2004, in which she reunited with her Freaky Friday director Mark Waters. The film, written by “Saturday Night Live” alum Tina Fey, was a huge success, and grossed $86 million just in the U.S. However, even greater than the financial returns for Lindsay Lohan were the critical accolades. Although the film was directed at the teenage market, critics loved it, heaping praise on Lindsay Lohan for her acting, as well as praising the work of director Waters and writer Fey. The film featured Lindsay Lohan as the new kid in town who is tortured by the mean girls at school - but quickly gives them a taste of their own medicine. However, the success of “Mean Girls” wasn’t the only reason Lindsay Lohan found herself in the news in 2004. A much publicized split between Lindsay Lohan and “That 70’s Show” star Wilmer Valderrama was over-played by the tabloids, and in October Lohan exhaustion with a temperature of 103. The event was chalked up to over-exertion, and Lindsay Lohan was released from the hospital in a few days. Also in late-2004, Lindsay Lohan lost 10-pounds due to her illness, and rumors spread that she was anorexic, charges Lohan vehemently denied. In 2005, Lindsay Lohan returned again to the big screen in a new installment in the Disney serial, “Herbie the Love Bug.” “Hebie: Fully Loaded” starred Lindsay Lohan and Michael Keaton as a father-daughter racing duo who find the magical VW bug. Again, the film opened to solid box-office returns and critical acclaim for Lindsay Lohan. Lindsay Lohan’s Hollywood success has made her into one of the world’s most bankable young stars: She earned a salary of $7.5 million to star in the upcoming romantic comedy “Just My Luck,” and landed her a role in an upcoming project with Nick Cannon, (to be released in 2006) as well as roles in Fashionistas and the teen-dramas Dramarama and Gossip Girl, all of which were to be released in 2005. Lindsay Lohan also landed a choice role in the upcoming Robert Altman directed film based on the popular radio-show, “A Prarie Home Companion,” and began recording a new album. But her on screen success also ensured Lindsay Lohan would be a staple of the gossip columns as well. 2005 saw Lindsay Lohan locked in a feud with singer-sisters Ashlee and Jessica Simpson, when Lohan reportedly did not invite the two to her post-MTV movie awards bash because Ashlee Simpson dated Lohan’s ex, Wilmer Valderrama. Lindsay Lohan was also in the news again when her car was wrecked by a paparazzo trying to get photos of the hot star. Lindsay Lohan’s short life has already been full of success.
