Lindsay Lohan : Lesbian Icon: Who? When? Where?

Lohan's personal life has been a frequent subject of celebrity and tabloid journalism.

Lohan and Hilary Duff became bitter enemies in 2002 when they simultaneously dated Aaron Carter; the feud continued for five years. However, in 2007, Lohan and Duff put the dispute behind them and became friends. Lohan has also dated Wilmer Valderrama, Harry Morton and Calum Best. While seeking treatment at the Cirque Lodge in Utah, Lohan met and began dating Riley Giles; however, in late November, 2007, it was announced that they had split up. Lohan's mother, Dina Lohan said, "[Riley] took desperate measures to hurt Lindsay because she broke up with him".

Lohan has had a series of car accidents that have been widely reported, with minor crashes in August 2004, October 2005, and November 2006, when Lohan suffered minor injuries because a paparazzo who was following her for a photograph hit her car. Police called the crash intentional, but prosecutors said there was not enough evidence to file criminal charges. ...more...
