Lindsay Lohan was in court yesterday because she violated the terms of her DUI probation from 2007. She failed to show up for weekly alcohol education classes seven times in December, says the Chicago Sun-Times. She also set off a silent alarm on her scram bracelet that she consumed alcohol after the MTV Music Awards on June 6, according to Celebritology (at the WashingtonPost.com). Lohan and her attorney deny the second accusation and the judge did not consider it a violation of her probation–just a bail restriction.

The co-owner of Right On, an alcohol-education program, took the stand yesterday and told the judge about Lohan’s absences. The Chicago Sun-Times reports that the program co-owner… “Marshall said she was aware the program received a phone call from the judge in December saying she wanted Lohan to attend classes each week. But Marshall added she never got a paper copy of the order and did not consider it active.”

When Lohan addresses the court, she says:

Um, I just wanted to take a minute to say that, um, you know, I…as far as I know, I was in compliance with, um, my program, my Right On programs, and um, you know when I would ask to leave town, they would give me permission to leave town so that’s all I knew, that was coming to me. I wasn’t expecting any special treatment aside from the understanding that I have, I have to provide for myself…

…I know I was ordered to go once a week, um, and I wasn’t missing the classes just to hang out or do anything like that. I was working, mostly, and Morocco, the trip I was working with children and it wasn’t a vacation, it wasn’t some sort of a joke…

Lohan’s tearful plea to the judge was essentially a ridiculous, excuse-filled ramble, if you ask me. She believed she could “skirt” her way out of her responsibilities, again. Thank god the judge didn’t let her get away another time.

When the judge sentenced Lohan to 90 days in jail and 90 days for an inpatient rehab, Lindsay is completely surprised. She acts like a little school girl being given a detention. You see her mouth the word, “What?” She can’t believe it is happening to her. I think the only one Lohan is fooling is herself. She just hasn’t wised up to it like the rest of us.

While Lohan cried real tears of self-pity, she hits me as a woman who has gotten her way a few too many times in life and finally needs someone to draw the line and hold her accountable once and for all. I think her sentence was necessary and important. This girl is out of control!

Have you seen Lohan’s history?

Read moreSeveral of you have voted that I review the recent Lohan video. I think most people see the truth in this situation. Lohan has a serious problem and is in complete denial. In this video, while she is trying to excuse everything, she fails at it miserably.

The reporter asks Lindsay, “Was that cocaine in the photographs?” Notice how Lindsay doesn’t answer the question?

Lohan says, “I was literally walking back to my room with a few of my friends, um, after doing press for my movie…I was with some of the producers I work with. They went back into my room, and the director as well, and I stopped in someone’s room because someone came out of the room, and said, “Could you just take a picture with me really quickly?”

What is fascinating is how Lindsay first says she was “with a few of her friends”. Then a second later, she says she was with the producers and the director. Which is it? If they are friends, you continue to refer to them as “friends”. If you say producers/director, you would stick with that. Why is she flipping them here? Notice the stutter with the word “um”?

Notice, as well, the details in her story are missing.

Supposedly everyone went to her room, but she stopped. Who let them in her room then, if she stopped? Why doesn’t she talks about the details of handing over her key? Is this the cart before the horse–because it is a made up story?

I would also think it would be odd for Lindsay to just go into any hotel room with strangers and to take a photo, without anyone else being there with her. You would think she would have some safety concerns, wouldn’t you?

Lindsay wants us to think she never saw the cocaine. Well, she obviously saw the photos they are speaking about! Why doesn’t she address the obvious? Instead she avoids it like the white elephant in the room that it is.

You have to laugh when the reporter says, “Do you think that was a setup?” If she was innocent and not involved in the drugs in anyway, she would have likely said something like, “It obviously was…they are selling or sharing these photos! Hello!” But Lindsay denies it — which is a huge hot spot. If she is deceptive, she doesn’t want to piss off the people who took those photos, does she? Heck no!

Why would Lindsay laugh when the reporter asked her if she is still taking drugs? It flat out contradicts what we should be seeing if she is honest–which would be seriousness. If she is truly trying to beat this as she wants us to believe, Lindsay would be dead serious, proud and confident. Instead, Lindsay is stressed, insecure, doubtful and clearly struggling with issues and needs help. She is trying to convince herself here more than anyone else. I don’t think a soul believes her, do you?

Lohan’s father appeared on the CBS Early Show this morning and when you watch him in comparison to his daughter, it is very clear who is being honest here.
