Lindsay Lohan Needs to Gain Weight?

Earlier this month, it was announced that Lindsay Lohan took on a new leading role in the indie fantasy comedy The Other Side. According to Star (I know, I know, bad source), Lindsay Lohan is being asked to gain weight for the role.

Lindsay, who has said before that she’s happy with her weight and how she looks, is being “ordered” to gain weight, with weekly weigh-ins, for the role. In addition, Star is saying that they are ordering drug tests and enforcing a nightly curfew.

Given all this, I think this news is bunked. The producer of the film told the media before that they were very excited to be working with Lindsay and were “not worried whatsoever.” This sounds like completely the opposite, and said in such a way that it doesn’t even sound like the producer said it.

BTW – how do you like the new design at LohanGroupie? Some things still don’t work perfectly, but we’re getting there!

Producer Thinks Lindsay Will Be “Phenomenal”

Yesterday we shared the great news that Lindsay Lohan had joined the cast of new comedy film The Other Side, which will come out in 2010. The producer of that film, Kent Harper, tells People that they are “excited” about working with Lindsay Lohan:

“She said, ‘I’m going to turn down a lot of other work right now. I really want to get serious.’ She said, ‘I’m committed. I’m not going to be late. I’m really, really excited about doing this and working with these other actors.’ So we’re excited.”

Kent continued, saying that he believes in Lindsay and where she’s at in her life and her commitment to her art.

“She’s going to be phenomenal and I’m not worried whatsoever”

They are not worried about being able to insure Lindsay for the film. It’s very low down on the things that they worry about, and it’s something they will deal with when it’s closer to the time to start shooting the film (in October). He has no fears that it’ll all work out great. So, nice to see Lindsay getting the support here!

“Lindsay’s very aware of people’s perceptions of her. She’s really committed to doing what she has to in order to change that.”
