SPOTLIGHT ON ... NATASCHA BRUHIN Entertainment Editor This week, it has been confirmed once and for all from whom Lindsay Lohan gets her crazy. For years, we’ve known the Lohan family to be not the most private, level- headed family in Hollywood, and well, now we have police evidence to back up that claim. Lindsay Lohan’s father, Michael, was arrested for domestic violence against his girlfriend Kate Major this past week. Lohan allegedly threatened to throw Major off a fourth-floor balcony and, according to Major, threw a cell- phone at her and pushed her around. He was taken into cus- tody after Major called the police and as the cops arrived, Lohan promptly started complaining of chest pains and was taken to the hospital. Here’s where it gets ridiculous: After Lohan was treated for chest pains, he tried to sneak out of the hos- pital unnoticed by the police. An officer caught him try- ing to escape and then officially booked him for domestic violence. Police called again Twelve hours later, after Lohan was released from jail and was told by the judge that under no circumstance is he allowed to call Kate Major, Lohan allegedly called Kate! Not just once, but over and over again, until Major called the police yet again. It didn’t end there. As the cops arrived at his apartment, Lohan tried to escape (again!) by jumping off his third-floor balcony, landing on a tree and injuring his foot. This sounds like a fake movie plot, but sadly, it’s all true and all fact. At the same this is all happening, the rest of the Lohan family are up to their own antics. Lindsay’s mother, Dina, is currently trying to pitch her autobiography to publishers. The book is less about her and more about daughter Lindsay. A snippet from the book was released on the Internet: “I blamed her friends, her career and her handlers for a newfound life- style of partying excessively. Drinking, drugging and behav- ing irresponsibly became Lindsay’s way of daily living – and it tore me up inside. How could I deny my daughter the celebritypuke.com chance of a lifetime?
