Lindsay Lohan sentencted to 90 days in jail

Lindsay Lohan has been given 90 days in the slammer for violating her probation (she was partying in Cannes, when she needed to appear in court) - beginning jail time July 20th - which will then be followed by a further 90 day substance programme. Although there's already talk that prison over-crowding will see her released after as little as just three weeks behind bars. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hPF6urxIHqI Lohan, actually sounding remorseful in a teary, pre-prepared statement (or maybe she is a better actress than I have previously given her credit) said;

'I'm not taking this as a joke. It's my life and my career, something I have worked for my entire life.'

In Q4 2010 - she will be an ex-convict; does that mean she will be able to sell more tickets, gain more leading roles? Lohan's career has been all but over since 2007 but a role as the infamous 'Deep Throat' Linda Lovelace in the Inferno biopic had peaked our interest. That film still needs funding, which may or may not be more difficult after this. Though Lohan stays attached, whatever. Director Matthew Wilder in an astonishing statement to MTV News, called her a 'remarkable artist' and compared her to Jesus;

"This is a sad chapter in the ongoing tragicomic circus between the tabloid media and the 'justice' system... ...An outrageously outsized sentence garners attention for all the players involved, but brings only sadness to the poor soul who has to serve it. I am 100% behind Lindsay and can say the same for everyone involved in the production of 'Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story.' Indeed, we are proud to have this remarkable artist work on our film. And as for the haters relishing this moment, I can only quote Jesus in 'The Last Temptation of Christ': 'And those who are laughing now...will be crying after.' "
