Lindsay Lohan watch: The week after India

Days after her return to Hollywood from a brief documentary-filming field trip to sacred India, and the week that the Screen Actors Guild and Golden Globe nominations were announced and her father's most recent mugshot was released, talented and troubled actress Lindsay Lohan is back on the party scene on Sunset Boulevard, in torn stockings.

Lindsay Lohan watch: India not so guruvy

As it turns out, Lindsay Lohan's potentially life-changing pilgrimage to India was nothing more than a long weekend. What we'd hoped would be a long hiatus from Hollywood bad influences, a chance to bathe in the River Ganges and seek enlightenment from any number of gurus turned out to be a quick photo op for a BBC documentary on child trafficking and a flight back to LAX (where she's pictured arriving on Saturday) for the talented and troubled actress.

Here's hoping. And here is a tip of the Tabloid Baby hat to her father, Michael Lohan, who had been talking of getting Lindsay to do this very work since he visited her in rehab in 2007.

Lindsay Lohan watch: Sin bath suggested

With Lindsay Lohan supposedly in India lending her authority to a BBC documentary on the trafficking of women and children, she twitters that she's saved "over forty children... within one days work," and a Hindu statesman says the talented and troubled young actress has a chance to save herself.


Rajan Zed suggests that Michael Lohan's daughter take a dip in the Ganges River so she can "rediscover herself."

He's quoted: "Lindsay Lohan should rediscover herself by taking a dip in the holy Ganges. It is believed that bathing in the sacred Ganges purifies one of all sin and its waters confer immortality."
