Lindsay Lohan Describes Her Father as a 'Lunatic'

Originally posted 11/01/2009 12:35PM

Lindsay Lohan has taken to Twitter to slam her dad Michael, following reports that he is seeking conservatorship over her, and that he's offered an entertainment TV show tape-recorded conversations between himself and his ex-wife, Dina, in which they discuss their daughter's well-being.

"My father is a lunatic & doesn't even deserve such a title since he's never been around in my life other than when he'd threaten me & my family," Tweeted Lindsay, who just finished shooting the thriller Machete opposite Robert DeNiro. "He should be where he has always put himself after verbally abusing and physically abusing people all my life-behind bars."

Lindsay, 23, also wrote that her sister Ali, 15, is also concerned about their father's behavior. "It's so sad to get a phone call from my baby sister just now asking, 'why is daddy doing this?' Through tears. He's crossed the lines & hurt me & my family 4 the last time."

As Michael Lohan emerges as a new advisor to Jon Gosselin on personal matters – and increasingly, on professional matters, too – sources tell PEOPLE that the Lohans wish he'd focus on his own family.

"It's embarrassing, he's embarrassing," says a Lohan insider, suggesting Michael pay attention to his own responsibilities, not those of Jon Gosselin. "He's trying to get deals for Jon. Maybe Jon can tell Michael to pay [ex-wife] Dina child support. He's now six months behind."

Jon Gosselin and the new Kate in his life – tabloid reporter Kate Major – hooked up with Lindsay Lohan's dad, Michael Lohan, in the Hamptons on Wednesday.

Lindsay Lohan to Dad: Stop Talking to Reporters

Originally posted 04/18/2008 02:50PM

Lindsay Lohan has heard just about enough from her father.

"I just wish that he wouldn't go and talk to the media," she said Friday on radio's The Billy Bush Show. "It's not attractive to me, it really upsets me and I wish he would stop. ... I love my father. I just don't know why he's doing what he's doing. It's a weird situation, very odd."

Michael Lohan, 47, has frequently commented on his 21-year-old daughter's eventful life and that of their family, most recently talking about his divorce from Lindsay's mother Dina and the upcoming E! reality show Living Lohan with Dina and younger daughter Ali, 13.

Michael Lohan's Nativity Scene

Originally posted 12/19/2007 03:45PM

Lindsay Lohan's dad, Michael, was getting into the holiday spirit on Tuesday night in Manhattan.

The recently paroled papa put in an appearance as Joseph in a live nativity scene (in a small park near Times Square) to help recognize firefighters who died on 9/11.

"It was heartwarming, but a cold night," Lohan told PEOPLE. "I was with some nice people." He was replaced in the manger after 6 p.m., but the festive scene continued, including a chorus of men and women from Project Dance singing traditional Christmas carols and three fake, life-sized sheep, as well as a Mary and baby Jesus.
