Lindsay at Beverly Hills Courthouse (July 20) – updated

Lohan’s dad: ‘Fiancee is telling tales for cash’

Lindsay Lohan’s father has laughed off reports he attacked his fiancee during a fight before he headed to Los Angeles for his daughter’s pre-jail hearing on Tuesday, insisting his partner is simply cashing in on her brush with fame.

Michael Lohan tells TMZ.com his girlfriend, Kate Major, is strapped for cash and she created a domestic violence story to help pay the rent.

Major has filed a police complaint accusing Lohan of attacking her during a heated argument on Monday afternoon. She claims the famous father pushed her over a chair and injured her shoulder and then reportedly kicked her in the face as she lay on the ground.

Major admitted herself to a local hospital to receive treatment for her injuries and the website claims she has photo evidence of the damage Michael supposedly inflicted upon her.

But Lohan tells TMZ.com, “She has no money, no job and she’s been living off of me for the last eight months… and her dad just cut her off.”

Lindsay at Beverly Hills Courthouse (July 20)

Lohan to spend two weeks behind bars

US sheriff’s officials say celebrity Lindsay Lohan will likely spend about two weeks of her three-month sentence in jail. Department spokesman Steve Whitmore says Lohan is likely to be released on August 1 or 2. The projected release date reflects all the credits Lohan is likely to receive. The department has said the actress was likely to serve a quarter of her sentence or less.

Lohan surrendered at a courthouse on Tuesday and was immediately whisked away to an all-women’s jail. She will serve her time in an isolation unit that has previously hosted Paris Hilton and Michelle Rodriguez.

Wearing dark denim jeans, a grey top, black corset belt and black jacket, the 24-year-old Lohan showed up at the Beverly Hills courtroom about 10 minutes late. After a short hearing, she rose and was handcuffed behind her back to serve her time for a probation violation.

Lohan was accompanied to court by her mother, Dina, and younger sister Ali, who wiped away tears after her sister was taken into a lockup. Her estranged father, Michael Lohan, yelled, ‘We love you Lindsay!’ as his daughter was led away. She was then taken across town to the Century Regional Detention Facility in the industrial suburb of Lynwood.

In court, Lohan was represented by her longtime lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, who had resigned earlier but never filed a formal motion with the court.

Famed celebrity lawyer Robert Shapiro said on Friday that he had agreed to represent the actress, but Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Marsha Revel said on Tuesday that he had told her hours earlier that he would not take the case.

Holley said after the hearing that Lohan had decided she did not want Shapiro to represent her.

‘She’s stepped up, she’s accepted responsibility,’ Holley said of her client.

‘She’s scared as anyone would be, but she’s as resolute and she’s doing it.’

Prosecutor Danette Meyers said she thought Lohan was receiving the appropriate sentence.

She said the case, which is atypical for the attention it receives, spotlighted that drunken driving is a serious offence with consequences.

‘Someone can get killed,’ Meyers said. ‘Hopefully it has opened a number of eyes.’

While the judge did not address Lohan’s tardiness on Tuesday directly, she did order her to report to probation officials within a dayof her release from jail. The judge had previously ordered Lohan to report within two days. Revel also has ordered officials not to allow Lohan to serve any of her sentence on house arrest or work release.

Two weeks ago the judge determined that the Mean Girls star violated her probation by missing seven alcohol education classes since December. She had been on probation since August 2007 after pleading guilty to misdemeanour drug charges and no contest to three driving charges.

Lohan, a prolific user of the microblogging site Twitter, posted a message roughly 12 hours before her court appearance referencing her looming incarceration.

‘The only ‘bookings’ that I’m familiar with are Disney Films, never thought that I’d be ‘booking’ into jail eeeks,’ Lohan posted.

The jail and rehab stints have left some of the actress’ projects in limbo, including her planned portrayal of porn star Linda Lovelace in a biopic.

Once considered an up-and-coming star, Lohan has in recent years been better-known as a tabloid staple and for the criminal case she has struggled to put behind her.

Her probation had to be extended for a year to give Lohan more time to complete her alcohol education courses and Revel ordered weekly attendance in December. But the actress didn’t complete the sessions as ordered and missed a court date in May, setting a stage for her return to jail. She is expected to serve her time – probably a quarter of her sentence or less – in isolation at a women’s jail in the industrial suburb of Lynwood.

The facility has hosted several female celebrities, including Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, Michelle Rodriguez, Khloe Kardashian and very briefly, Lohan.

She will be forced to wear a jail-issued jumpsuit and be given a set of simple toiletries that all inmates receive: toothbrush, toothpaste, soap, comb, deodorant, shampoo and shaving implements.

Hilton received one for her own secluded 23-day stay in 2007 for reckless driving charges.

The Complex cover shoot

Lindsay Lohan covers Complex’s August/September 2010 issue

Rappers might be on that rock shit, but Lindsay Lohan is on that rap shit. Flaking on interviews? Check. Unrepentant bad behaviour? Check. Gully enough to ignore a bench warrant, come back from Europe for a legal hearing, and have her court-supplied alcohol bracelet go off at the MTV Movie Awards? Check and mate. She’s Weezy, Yeezy, and motherfucking Jeezy all in one. Who else would choose her comeback vehicles to be Robert Rodriguez’s Machete and the Linda Lovelace biopic, Inferno? That’s gully on both counts. She may have been a Disney ingenue, but about five years ago she took a hard left, and we’ve been loving her for it—movies or no movies. So yea we’ve been angling to get her on the cover for a minute now. And when it happened? We’re about to remind people that they’ve been underestimating Lindsay. We’re about to ride out together, Bonnie and Clyde style. But some funny things happend on the way to making magic—and they reminded us that Lilo’s not lost, she’s just trying to hide from the vultures.

Lohan taken into custody for jail term

Lindsay Lohan was taken into custody Tuesday — a bit late, but without incident — to begin serving her jail sentence for a probation violation.

The actress rose and was handcuffed behind her back after a brief hearing. She arrived at court about 10 minutes late, prompting Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Marsha Revel to begin calling other matters.

Lohan, 24, was accompanied to court by her mother, Dina, and younger sister Ali, who wiped away tears after her sister was taken into a lockup for the 90-day sentence, which is likely be shortened in part because of jail overcrowding.

Her father, Michael Lohan, yelled, “We love you Lindsay!” as his daughter was led away.

In court, Lohan was represented by her longtime attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, who had resigned earlier but never filed a formal motion with the court. Famed celebrity attorney Robert Shapiro said Friday that he had agreed to represent the actress, but Revel said Tuesday that he had told her hours earlier that he would not take the case.

Lohan urges father to stay away

Lindsay Lohan has issued an emotional plea to her father to stay away from her as she battles her demons in rehab insisting she is in a “great place” and doesn’t want her dad to hamper her progress.

The Mean Girls star recently checked into a sober living facility in Los Angeles ahead of her upcoming 90 day jail sentence, which she is due to start on July 20th.

The actress was handed the stint behind bars for violating her parole relating to a 2007 DUI arrest and her lawyer Robert Shapiro has confirmed she is determined to put her addictions behind her.

Shapiro has come under fire from Lohan’s father Michael, who has accused him of not doing enough to keep his daughter out of prison and in rehab but the star, who has endured a turbulent relationship with her dad in recent years, has warned him not to meddle in her affairs.

In a series of posts on her Twitter.com page, she writes,

“I don’t want my ex-father anywhere near me no matter where I am. He is crazy and scares me.”

“I don’t want Michael Lohan Sr. anywhere near me… I am in a great place and he only brings negativity in my world.”
