Actress and singer Lindsay Lohan was born in
New York City, on the 2nd of July 1986, to Dina Lohan and Michael
Lohan. She began her career at age three as a Ford model, and
also made appearances in over sixty television commercials,
including spots for The Gap, Pizza Hut, Wendy's, and Jello. Lohan
made her acting debut in 1996 as the third actress for Ali Fowler
in the television drama "Another World".
Shortly after, she was handpicked by Oscar-nominated writer Nancy
Meyers as estranged twin sisters in an adaptation by Walt Disney
Pictures of a novel by Erich. Lohan's first feature film, Parent
Trap, The (1998) was a huge success, earning Lohan widespread
critical acclaim, and a Young Artist award for Best Leading Young
Actress in a Feature Film, as well as Blockbuster Entertainment
and YoungStar award nominations.
After signing a three-movie contract with Disney, she returned to
the small screen to star in the made-for-TV movies Life-Size (2000)
(TV) (opposite Tyra Banks) and Get a Clue (2002) (TV). She also
appeared as Rose in the pilot episode of the short-lived comedy
series "Bette" (2000), which starred Bette Midler.
In June 2001, Lohan took a brief hiatus from acting. Her music
career was launched over a year later, when Estefan Enterprises
made a five-album production deal with her in September 2002.
But Lohan was not turning her back on her blossoming acting
career. Just over a month previously, she had been cast opposite
Jamie Lee Curtis for another Disney adaptation of a novel, this
time of a fantasy comedy by Mary Rodgers. Freaky Friday (2003)
was a huge hit, and critics were spellbound by delightful
performances from Lohan and Curtis (who went on to receive a
Golden Globe nomination for her work). In addition, Lohan won the
2004 MTV Movie Award for Best Breakthrough Female, as well as a
Saturn award nomination and another Young Artist award nomination.
Lohan relocated permanently to Los Angeles between projects, and
moved into an apartment with fellow actress Raven. She also dated
pop star Aaron Carter for a short time.
Lohan's next acting role was the title character in the comedy
Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen (2004), a Disney adaptation
of the novel by Dyan Sheldon. The film receiving scathing reviews
upon its release, and died a quick death at the box office,
but even the
harshest of critics were impressed by Lohan's charming turn as
aspiring actress Lola.
Lohan's next project, Mean Girls (2004) saw her reunite with
Freaky Friday (2003) director Mark S. Waters. Inspired by a non-fiction
book by Rosalind Wiseman and written by "Saturday Night Live"
(1975) scribe Tina Fey, the high school comedy drama opened to
glowing reviews, and grossed a whopping $112 million worldwide.
This earned her status as a bankable actress, and a salary of $7.5
million for the upcoming Donald Petrie romantic comedy Lady Luck
(2005).
One of the most sought after young actresses in the industry, she
is also set to star in two other romantic comedies: Untitled Nick
Cannon/Lindsay Lohan Project (2006) (opposite Nick Cannon) and
Fashionistas (2005) (based on the novel by Lynn Messina) as well
as the high school dramas Dramarama (2006) and Gossip Girl (2005)
(based on the novel by Cecily von Ziegesar), and the Disney
fantasy adventure Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005) (a remake of Love
Bug, The (1968)).
In her spare time, Lohan enjoys swimming, basketball, shopping,
singing, reading, writing, gymnastics, collecting Beanie Babies,
roller-blading, and playing with her siblings Aliana, Dakota and
Michael Lohan.
