Lindsaylohan_290_001 Lindsay Lohan's latest film is going straight to cable. It could have been a pleasant box office surprise.

According to Us Weekly, Lohan turned down the role of Jade in surprise hit "The Hangover." The role of a hooker with a heart of gold eventually went to Heather Graham.

Lohan's latest film, "Labor Pains," has been downgraded from big-screen status to an ABC Family premiere. "The Hangover," meanwhile, has already scored $268 million at the box office worldwide and spurred talk of a sequel.

According to the Us Weekly report, director Todd Phillips approached Lindsay for the "Hangover" role and was told the screenplay had "no potential."

"The agent tried hard to get Phillips to consider her, and when he finally agreed, Lindsay said she didn't like the script," a source told the magazine.

Nice!...Thanks for turning it down Lindsay. Your decision made it that much better!

PS. Glad to see the drugs are kickin' in!


Why is this news? We already know she's stupid.


Is she still around, this Thing and Sarah Palain are so over. Get lost things!


Lohan's over. Sorry but you'll have to live with Palin beating Obama in 2012.


Americans actual still want Palin as president? And they wonder why the rest of the world thinks they're stupid? 40% of americans probably think Lohan's the senator and Palin's the "actress" as they see her on TV more!


Good for her. The movie sucks. It is tedious and boring. I think more highly of her knowing that she didn't care for it, either.


Zaphod,

Before you insult American's you might want to get your facts straight - Palin is/was a Governor - not a senator


Palin is over and trash, so is lindsay, wonder if shes lindsay's mother.... LOL


Heather Graham is alright the better actor for this movie
