We're going to try a collaborative post here:
This is what TechVixen emailed out this morning:
So I saw a few quick clips of Lindsay in the courtroom and this is my personal version of what went down:
Judge (who's my hero of the day): So, we told you that you had to attend Alcohol education once a week or else you'd be violating your probation.
Lindsay: Yeah, but I have to work.
Judge: Are you aware that violating your probation can land you in jail?
Lindsay: Just regular people right?
Judge: So you expect me to believe that you've actually landed a job in the last six months that didn't involve making an appearance at a club
Lindsay: Um, yeah!
Judge: Alright, enough of your bs.
Lindsay: I did my best! (Legit quote)
Judge: Yeah, whatever, the world will be a better place if you're MIA for 6 months. To jail and rehab with you!!
TV and PV are seriously concerned that LiLo is aiming for early tragic death. We've been begging for a Papa Spears intervention ASAP.
LawVixen adds:
Probation is sort of the Judge's way of doing you a favor. He/she is saying "look, you earned this jail time for what you did, BUT you're young, you've got a great head of hair, and if you could get your life back on track you have a lot of potential. I'll give you the chance to do that". Violating probation is often not unexpected, but it's the courtroom version of an ANTM contestant telling Tyra that she's not really sure she wants to be there. The wrath from the Tyra is fierce. Lindsay Lohan's reported overconfidence that she would receive a "slap on the wrist" is not a good sign - DUI is a pretty serious offense and has actual consequences, even for movie stars.
Now I am - all three of the Vixens are - really big fans of Mean Girls, and I hope that Lindsay genuinely dedicates herself to recovery and is able to get her life and career back on track. While showing up for court this time looking healthier and like she's taking the court proceedings seriously was a big step in the right direction, ultimately the Court is going to require for her to take responsibility for her actions - which includes accepting her sentence with humility.
Now that I've gone there: don't you think Tyra should get her own court judgeship?!
