Born on July 2, 1986, Lindsay Lohan began her career in the spotlight as a fashion model at the age of 3. In her prime she was famous for movies such as The Parent Trap, Freaky Friday, and Mean Girls. She also became a massive target for the tabloids and paparazzi.

In 2006, Lohan attended Alcoholics Anonymous meetings and went to rehab for 30 days. In May that same year, she was arrested for DUI, and two weeks later, she was arrested for cocaine possession, DUI and driving without a license. The innocent little redhead everyone knew was heading down a dark and dangerous path.

Things only got worse from there. In August of 2006, she pleaded guilty to various charges and was sentenced to community service, one day in jail, 3 years of probation and an alcohol education program. She entered rehab later that month, and stayed until October.

For the last 8 years Lohan has been in rehab several times and charged with countless DUI’s. We can only hope for the best for this talented, but troubled, actress.
