I am watching LL on Jimmy Fallon, and I can’t believe how awful she looks! The blond hair is a mistake for her, but it really looks like she’s had bad cheek implants. I saw an ad for her on SNL this weekend, and thought she looked bad, but I chalked it up to bad lighting. But no, this girl has seriously damaged her looks. Great cautionary tale for “drugs are bad, mkay?”, though…

Conversely, the Olsen Twins are _almost_ 26. When I read an interview with their younger sister Elizabeth, and it said she was 23, I about fell out of my chair.

That and “unnecessary and repeated plastic surgeries are bad, mmkay” (but they may be _because_ of the drugs so maybe just the above is needed lol)

The weird thing is [Paris Hilton](http://bumpshack.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/Paris-Hilton-Grammys-Red-Carpet-2012-PHOTOS.jpg) is still looking pretty good. The way she lives, she should be looking like something out of a George Romero movie by now.

Do you think maybe she’s sucking the life out of other women? Not just Lohan. Look at [Nicole Ritchie](http://www.hollywoodbackwash.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/nicole-richie-skinny-bikini.jpg), [Kim Kardashian](http://sandrarose.com/images8/kim-nomakeup468.jpg), and [Britney Spears](http://img.perezhilton.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/britney-spears-settles-with-bodyguard-web__oPt.jpg).

Paris Hilton never looked good, if you mean she doesn’t look like an old used up crack whore then yeah i guess she does have that going at least.

Paris Hilton is attractive in person. She looks healthy too. Great skin.

Lindsay needs to lay off the fillers and botox. She’s a hard 26, and keeps making it worse. Britney Spears is not going to age well, but with money like she has, it won’t matter.

Heh. I explained the [27 Club](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/27_Club) to my mom a few days ago. Her first question was whether Lohan is 27 yet.

Holy shit. I remember a website that was a countdown clock for their 18th birthdays. In fact, I think I found out about it on these boards.

In regards to Lindsay Lohan, in my neck of the woods we would have said “she looks like she’s been rode hard and put up wet.”

Somebody needs to start a new website with a clock counting down to when Lohan turns 27.

Because this is the Dope, I’ll go ahead and nitpick. The clock would have to go to her 28th birthday, since the idea of 27 Club is that they die while they are 27, not before.

In the photo I saw, Britney looked like the healthy kicker gal she always was.

Genetics has a lot to do with it too. Some people just age better than others. How’s her mom look?

If she doesn’t look like the crypt keeper, it’s not genetics.

I was actually thinking of writing a thread, “Who really cares about Linsday Lohan?”  
Not to be evil, but it is not like she had some huge career of great acting work, and she was never some great mega-star.  
She is sort of famous for being a famous fuck-up.

I don’t wish anyone harm, but Lindsay has pretty much outlived her 15 minutes of fame and really should now just get a job at Target, get married, buy a condo in the Valley and fade off into the sunset. There are lots better and saner young actresses out there who deserve a real shot at fame and fortune, and won’t toss their career into a toilet.  
Or maybe I am missing some facet of her fame and fan base?

Don’t know if it’s TV or movies, but she’s been reportedly picked to play Elizabeth Taylor.

By what blind man? My God, if Katy Perry could act, she’s who I’d pick!

LL is fair skinned and get lots of UV via sun or tan lamp. Between the sun, the cigarettes and the drugs her skin, and face especially, is taking a pounding.
