Dina Lohan: Lindsay & America Feud Rumors 'Just Silly'
Originally posted 10/28/2008 01:35PM
Despite reports of ugliness between Lindsay Lohan and America Ferrera on the set of Ugly Betty, Dina Lohan tells PEOPLE that her daughter "had fun" working on the show.
"It was just silly," Dina Lohan said of the reports about her daughter battling on-set and off with Ferrara. "America's a doll. And they said [Lindsay] brought a posse. It was my mother and myself, and [sister] Ali. It was not a posse. We had sushi and no one trashed the room."
Dina adds that Lindsay doesn't know why her six-episode guest stint on the ABC show was cut to four, but says the actress enjoyed her time there. "She had fun on Ugly Betty," says Dina, who spoke with PEOPLE Monday at Animal Fair magazine's Halloween Pet Costume Party in New York City. "It was long hours and when you're on a movie set it's a lot different. She's not used to television, but it was fun."

Amid rumors of an unpretty rivalry on Ugly Betty between guest star Lindsay Lohan and star America Ferrera, Lohan's agreed-upon six episodes have been cut to four, Page Six reports.
Reps from both sides, however, insist that everything is fine.
"Lindsay was scheduled for six episodes and is appearing in four but had a lovely time," a Lohan spokesperson said.
"America is grateful to have had her on the show and thinks everyone should tune in to see how great the episodes are," Ferrera rep Carrie Byalick said.
Producers of the ABC series tell PEOPLE, "Lindsay wrapped up her arc and is done filming. She did a great job and we enjoyed having her. Viewers can look forward to her episodes tonight and next week."

America Ferrera: Gossip Girl Makes Us 'Mean'
Originally posted 09/11/2008 02:10PM
America Ferrera says TV depicts female friendships in a skewed light.
"Like, if you're watching The Hills or 90210, all the backstabbing shapes the way we act," the Seventeen cover girl says in the magazine's October issue.
"I mean, I love Blake [Lively]; she's a wonderful friend of mine, but shows like Gossip Girl kind of condition us to be mean."
