Lindsay Lohan Broke, Begging Friends For Money
We reported in October of last year that Lindsay Lohan (photos) was nearly broke after blowing her fortune on hard-partying. Well, now things have gone from bad to worse as the 'New York Daily News' reports that she's been been asking friends for money. "Lindsay has been openly asking her friends for handouts. She has nothing to spend," says a source to the paper. They also quote another friend who says she's made under the table endorsements for some extra 'spending' cash: "Lindsay has been unofficially promoting Ariva, by making sure she is photographed carrying the quit-smoking tobacco lozenge wherever she goes. They have officially denied she is their new spokesmodel, but they privately paid her a mid-five figure sum this week." She's been forced to sell both her plush properties - a $3.15 million apartment in LA, plus her $1.1 million New York flat because she couldn't keep up with the mortgage payments. The paper reports Lindsay is in such financial strife that she even tried to sell photographs of her family's Thanksgiving dinner last year.
