Lindsay Lohan admits irresponsible behavior on film set

Lindsay Lohan admits irresponsible behavior on film set

It was the film shoot that earned more press for what was going on when the cameras stopped rolling than for when they were because of the bad behavior of Lindsay Lohan and, now that the movie is set to come out in three weeks, the spin about that awful experience is started to swirl, as Lindsay has admitted that she was a bad, bad girl. In case you don't remember, James G. Robinson, the producer of Georgia Rule, starring Jane Fonda, Felicity Huffman, and Lindsay Lohan, and directed by Garry Marshall, chastised poor Linds in a letter that was then leaked to the press. Robinson called Lindsay Lohan "discourteous, irresponsible and unprofessional" on and off the set, angered by her late arrivals and complete absences, one of which was blamed on the heat and exhaustion, but Robinson implied that it had more to do with the starlet's partying than the weather.

Now, Lindsay Lohan has admitted that she deserved some of the blame for the drama she brought to the Georgia Rule set. She tells Allure magazine, "It upset me because I was a bit irresponsible. I didn't think about the consequences, but I was also going through something in my life."

What was Lindsay Lohan going through at the time? She may have not had a full grasp on her alcohol issues and she may be referring to that, but she more likely is making the excuse of boy problems, as The Sun reports that Lindsay Lohan was having relationship problems with boyfriend Harry Morton during the shoot of Georgia Rule. Honestly, if that's the "something" she was going through that she refers to in Allure, that almost makes her behavior worse, considering how many people have to deal with family and relationship crises every day and never allow it to affect their jobs.

James G. Robinson, the CEO of Morgan Creek Productions, publicly dissed Lindsay Lohan and compared her to a spoiled child. The letter was sent to Lohan after Lindsay missed a few shoots because of sick days and actually threatened legal action. Perhaps more interesting than the letter itself is the fact that several people were copied in on it and one of them must have been angry enough at the tabloid queen to release it to the press, turning Lindsay's behavior and a relatively private hand-slapping for it into a major story.

Something that has been overshadowed by a lot of the behavior of Lindsay Lohan in the last year is that she's actually a good actress and if you want to see that in action, you can check out Bobby, recently released on DVD or Georgia Rule, opening in theaters on May 11th. Lindsay Lohan has also finished shooting Chapter 27, which had its premiere at Sundance earlier this year, and I Know Who Killed Me, which will hit theater this July. Interestingly, after Killed Me, Lindsay Lohan has no credits listed in production in IMDB, which might lead one to believe that her recent irresponsible behavior might be affecting her career.
