Let dad take the heat if Lindsay stays alive

So Lindsay Lohan has the mainstream gossip media on her side this morning, as she or her people take to Twitter to attack her father Michael after he released her private voicemail recordings and went frighteningly public with his concerns about not only her health but her life.


Word is that Lindsay is seeking a restraining order to keep him away and stop him from forcibly tossing her into a rehab facility. As we've mentioned before, Michael's mediamongering ways have not helped him in the eyes of the drivebys who only see an attention-seeking showbiz dad. But we've spoken to Michael. He's motivated by true concern and fear that his daughter will soon be dead like more than one of her hard-partying celebutard pals, and the heat he's taken for his grandstanding and otherwise inappropriate actions have already caused Lindsay to straighten up, if only because people are watching.


And let's be honest, most of the gossips and showbiz writers don't give a shit whether Lindsay Lohan lives or dies. They'll jump on whatever side is controlling the headlines at the moment, and if she's found dead in some hotel room, or bungalow, it make an even better story.

We'll check back.
