We thought that things couldn’t get much worse for Lindsay Lohan (let’s face it, you have to be having a pretty rough time if you’re trying to sell off your clothes in fairness and considering stripping as a career move) but we were wrong. Oh, how we were wrong.
According to celebrity gossip website TMZ.com, the actress is currently facing up to 245 days in the slammer since she violated her probation and told a few porkies to the police. Uh-oh!
Understandably, Lindsay is freaked out at the prospect of spending more time in jail and is so desperate to avoid more time in the slammer that she’s now gone and enlisted the help of her spiritual advisor to help her avoid it.
Sources close to Lindsay have told TMZ that the actress is now asking friends, family and her spiritual guru to write letters on her behalf to the judge hearing her case (we’re sure the judge will just love this).
Lindsay is begging her friends and family to vouch for her via letter
Why the letters? Well, Lindsay believes that notes detailing her many, many positive personality traits will help to prove that prison is like, so not the best option for her. What can we say? God loves a trier after all.
Anyway, Lindsay is convinced that a letter from her spiritual advisor will have the most impact as she credits him with helping her get life back on track and she firmly believes he has a positive impact on her life, when she can be bothered to show up and undergo some spiritual counselling with him.
Lindsay’s hearing is scheduled for January 25th. We wonder just how many letters her friends/family/gurus will have to write for her in order to help her avoid jail.
