Lindsay Lohan is scheduled to appear in a second Lennon movie – she has already completed “Chapter 27,” about John Lennon’s murder and is now cast in a short film with Sean Lennon (Yoko Ono & John Lennon’s son) to promote his new album.
His CD “Friendly Fire” hits stores in late September, a few days before the Grammy eligibility deadline. If it’s a hit, Sean will be following in the footsteps of older brother Julian, who scored big-time in the 1980s with his album “Valotte.” Recently, Julian told me he’s also working on a new CD and should have it finished soon…
In the short film version of "Friendly Fire," Lohan is one of many young celebs, including Sean Lennon’s sometime girlfriend Bijou Phillips, daughter of the late John Phillips; Harper Simon, son of Paul Simon; Devon Aoki, daughter of Benihana founder Rocky Aoki; Asia Argento; Jordana Brewster and Simon’s former stepmom, Carrie Fisher.
The irony in Lohan’s appearance is that in “Chapter 27,” she plays a groupie who hung out at the Dakota, where John Lennon was gunned down. Sean’s mother, Yoko Ono, still lives there, and Sean grew up there.
But maybe Lohan’s appearance in the film is more important for her notoriety, and perhaps is even worth a little bit of gossip. Sean Lennon, who turns 31 in October, has not been a prolific musician. His only other album was released eight years ago on an independent label. But “Friendly Fire” is coming out on Capitol Records, home of the Beatles since 1964.
And what does it sound like? The snippet of music available on the Capitol Web site, along with the Michele Civetta promo video, is very much John Lennon-like. It’s no surprise that “Friendly Fire” sounds not only a lot like the father’s work, but like Julian’s too…
The "Friendly Fire" album video is interesting, in light of the Beatles’ Cirque du Soleil show…
There are scenes of young Lennon as a swashbuckler, and a separate story of a man and woman (Lohan) and their infidelities. From the preview, it looks like the typical rock-’n'-roll movie: melodramatic, incoherent, pretentious and a lot of fun… – Fox News
