Lindsay Lohan Wears Pink Balmain Dress on 'Freakier Friday' Carpet
Lindsay Lohan showed up to the Freakier Friday premiere in Mexico, and wore what might be her best look of the entire press tour. (To be clear, she's been looking amazing this entire time—stylist Andrew Mukamal has been pulling some incredible pieces for her!) Lindsay arrived on the red carpet wearing a hot pink gown from Balmain, with ruffles down the front and a necklace halter top. She paired the look with a chic updo and matching hot pink lipstick. As for what we can expect from the movie, LiLo told Good Morning America that "It's going to be a really freaky Friday. Much freakier than you would expect.... It's fantastic. We all just have so much fun and it's so great to have that on set. You just always really want to have a good time. So it's a lot of love, a lot of fun, a lot of laughs and it's a great experience right now." As for working with Jamie Lee Curtis again, she said "Jamie and I have stayed in touch over the years. They always say when you have a best friend or someone that you're really close with, if you cannot see them for years and years, but when you see them again, it's like you've never separated." More recently, Lindsay told Entertainment Weekly "When Jamie called me in Ireland, I was like, 'Yes, I'm in, let's do it.' It's not very often that you get to work with someone who's been such a big part of your life on a personal level. That was exciting for me, to come back and do a big-screen film with a woman that I admire, that's part of my life off screen. To have that chance again, it doesn't happen much. I felt lucky to be able to do it." Freakier Friday hits theaters August 8!

"I'm Illegal": Lindsay Lohan Seemingly Had To Blurt Out That She Was Underage So Anthony Anderson Would Stop Making Sexual Comments Toward Her, But It Didn't Work
This article mentions allegations of sexual assault. A resurfaced clip of Anthony Anderson interviewing Lindsay Lohan is receiving a ton of backlash for the sexually-charged comments and questions he made to her at such a young age. In December 2003, Anthony acted as a guest host on The Sharon Osbourne Show. During the episode, Lindsay stopped by to promote the release of Freaky Friday landing on DVD and VHS, for fans' viewing pleasure. For those of you who aren't old enough to know what those are, before streaming revolutionized the way we watched movies and television, the only way to watch feature films or series at home was to use a disc (DVD) or tape (VHS). While Anthony's intention might've been playful, the constant sexual innuendos and suggestive language were a little hard to watch, especially since he was 33 at the time, and Lindsay was only 17. And it began as soon as she walked onto the stage. Related: When she came out, he initially greeted her with a polite kiss on the cheek, but as they sat down, he followed up the moment by saying, "You're sick and you just kissed me on the lips with tongue?" To which Lindsay immediately replies, "I didn't kiss you on the lips!" He later told her, "My children and I loved you in The Parent Trap." Lindsay, who was grateful for the compliment, thanked him for being a fan of her work. But the sweet moment turned awkward when he placed his hand on her knee and added, "You've grown up a whole lot since then." Lindsay was visibly shocked by the comment, but laughed it off with the audience. Later in the conversation, Lindsay revealed she and fellow child star Raven-Symoné just "got a place together." Anthony asked if they had issues with decorating, but Lindsay confirmed they hadn't because they had completely different styles, adding that Lindsay's room was completely pink, while Raven's room had darker colors. Probably already prepped on Lindsay's love for the color pink, Anthony gifted her pink pillow with his face on it that read, "To Lindsay, Love Anthony." "This is going to go right on my bed, and when I see you, I will say hi, cuz I'll see your face every night," Lindsay joked after they both exchanged stories of celebrities ignoring them after they tried to say hi to them. Related: But, as you probably guess, things turned weird again when Anthony responded, "Now aside from entertaining me in your room and in your house, what gentleman will be at the new pad with you and Raven-Symoné?" "No one," Lindsay said. "I don't have a boyfriend." Anthony then announced to the audience, " single and looking!" But Lindsay quickly reacted by pointing out, "But I'm illegal for people that are old." "Well, some men like 'em young, we ain't gonna mention no names, but, you know. I'm one of 'em." "You have a family man!" said Lindsay, who appeared to look at the audience for backup. She shook her head as she turned back around to look at Anthony, who was still cracking up at his own joke. After the odd exchange, and only a minute left of the interview, Anthony finally asked a work-related question. Lindsay shared she had two movies coming out and those would end up being big hits as well — none other than Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen and Mean Girls. He ultimately promoted the Freaky Friday DVD, revealing that everyone in the audience would be receiving one. Despite her getting excited about mentions of the release, by the end, she seemed a little relieved to be done with the interview. Related: And as much as I wish I could say it ended there, it didn't! As the camera zoomed out, Anthony yelled, "Right now, we're about to get our freak on," as he pulled Lindsay in for an awkward hug. The clip has since gone viral online. It most likely made its way to 2025 due to the upcoming release of the Freaky Friday sequel, Freakier Friday. Outside of the obvious, backlash for the clip arose due to Anthony's checkered past, which includes several sexual assault allegations. The first one emerged in 2004 when Anthony and Hustle & Flow assistant director Wayne Witherspoon were accused of raping a 25-year-old extra on the set of the film. A woman claimed to have heard screaming, followed by a naked woman running from a trailer. She was later treated at St. Francis Hospital. The Daily Beast reported that Anthony was charged with aggravated rape, but released on a $20K bond. He denies the allegations. A spokesperson for Anthony said in a statement: 'Anthony is a happily married family man who has never been accused of – no less involved in – anything remotely like this, and we are confident that when all the facts come out, he will be completely exonerated.' A Memphis judge threw out the case, deeming it 'the most suspicious case I've ever heard.' Anthony has never been convicted of any of the crimes brought up against him. But after watching the 2003 clip, it didn't take long for people to share their opinions, and sentiments across social media platforms came to the same conclusion: The interaction was "uncomfortable" and "creepy": Related: Take a look at the 2003 clip from The Sharon Osbourne Show and judge for yourself, and share your thoughts with me in the comments.

Lindsay Lohan commands attention in a figure-hugging pink gown as she joins co-star Jamie Lee Curtis at the world premiere of Freakier Friday in Mexico
Lindsay Lohan commanded attention in a striking pink gown as she joined her co-star Jamie Lee Curtis at the world premiere of Freakier Friday in Mexico on Thursday. The actress, 39, who has reprised her role for the sequel to 2003's Freaky Friday, looked incredible as she opted for full glamour for the outing. Her dress featured a silky ruffle design down the center which pooled out into a fishtail design. To complete her glitzy ensemble, Lindsay accessorised with a gold necklace, which attached to her dress, and slicked her blonde tresses into an elegant up-do. Meanwhile Jamie, 66, cut an elegant but striking display as she stepped out in a bright orange sequin pencil skirt. She paired her skirt with a silky orange shirt and slipped into a pair of modest, nude, block, heels. The anticipated movie - which is a sequel to the 2003 film - sees Lindsay and Jamie Lee Curtis embroiled in quadruple chaos as they swap bodies again - 22 years after they first traded places. Lindsay joined Jamie on stage to speak to a crowd of excited fans during the film festivities. It's hard to believe it's been 22 years since Lindsay and Jamie portrayed Anna and Tess Coleman in Mark Waters' critically-acclaimed remake of Freaky Friday, which amassed $160.8M at the global box office. Jamie told People on Tuesday: 'I know I can trust her. I can't say that about a lot of people. I do know that if I tell her something, it's gonna stay with her. We've both been through hard things, because we're alive and life is hard. 'And we're not dead yet. So the truth of our experience together, it belies all of the kind of showbizzy stuff. We connected, and we really stayed connected. And that is special and rare for me.' The actress added: '"Safe" is a very important word to me. I have to feel safe around people. And Jamie is one of those people for me. Like, I feel very safe with you. I feel safe telling you things. So it's — I know you said "trust," but for me it's "safe."' The supernatural comedy marks Lindsay's first theatrically released leading role in 18 years after overshadowing her acting career with six court-ordered rehab stints and other Hollywood wild child antics. The anticipated movie - which is a sequel to the 2003 film - sees Lindsay and Jamie embroiled in quadruple chaos as they swap bodies again - 22 years after they first traded places. The duo both executive produced and reprised their roles in Nisha Ganatra's mother-daughter swap sequel Freakier Friday, which hits US/UK theaters August 8 The original film followed a mother and teen daughter (played by Curtis and Lohan, respectively) who magically switch bodies after reading a cryptic fortune cookie. The follow-up film follows a similar plotline to the first movie, however, it features a huge twist involving Gen Z teenage girls that spells chaos for all involved. This time round, Lindsay's character Anna is preparing to tie the knot with to Eric Davies (Manny Jacinto), however things are proving difficult as her teenage daughter Harper (Julia Butters) despises Eric's teen girl Lily (Sophia Hammons). Meanwhile, Lindsay's paycheck for the original Freaky Friday has recently resurfaced — and fans were stunned. Despite the 2003 film's massive success, earning over $160 million on a $26 million budget, Lohan was paid just $550,000 for her starring role. Although her breakout hit was Disney's 1998 remake of The Parent Trap, Freaky Friday helped coronate her as a teen idol and cemented her status as a major force in Hollywood. It marked a turning point, though — by the time she filmed 2004's Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, her salary had nearly doubled to a reported $1 million. She maintained that salary for Mean Girls, which she starred in later that year. The film became one of her signature roles and is now a heavily quoted cultural icon. Last year, Lohan made a cameo appearance in the musical remake of Mean Girls, reportedly earning $500,000 for the brief role—proof she's moved past her earlier public struggles. Lindsay seemingly could do no wrong for the next few years as she attracted multimillion-dollar salaries. Her sequel Herbie: Fully Loaded was savaged by critics, but it still performed well at the box office, while her turn toward arthouse cinema with a supporting part in Robert Altman's A Prairie Home Companion earned stellar reviews and a respectable gross against a tiny budget. Those successes set up Lohan for her biggest payday ever: a reported $7.5 million that she earned for 2006's Just My Luck. Her luck ran out with that rom-com, which costarred a young Chris Pine. The film bombed with critics and audiences alike, and it grossed only $38 million against a budget of $28 million, of which Lohan's salary accounted for a significant chunk. Although it made more money than its production costs, Just My Luck likely made little if any profit when factoring in advertising and other promotional costs. Things went downhill from there. Her next lead role wasn't until 2007's Georgia Rule, which she starred in with Jane Fonda and Felicity Huffman, but the film underperformed. That year she starred in the preposterous horror thriller I Know Who Killed Me, which bombed at the box office, and the TV movie Labor Pains. Lohans career then shifted into a period in which she largely appeared in cameo roles as herself or in small supporting parts. Her lead role in the controversial Paul Schrader thriller The Canyons in 2013 helped her regain some critical interest, but she failed to capitalize on it with strong roles. Lohan also didn't star in any films between 2015 and 2019. More recently, she has tried to reinvent herself with the forgettable and poorly reviewed Netflix rom-coms Falling For Christmas (2022), Irish Wish (2024) and Our Little Secret (2024).

New Metrolinx CEO contract includes potential 6-figure bonus
New Metrolinx CEO Michael Lindsay could earn just over $820,000 in the next year between performance bonuses and his salary. Details of Lindsay's contract, posted through an Order in Council, show he will receive a base salary of roughly $687,000 per year with a performance-based bonus of up to 20 per cent. It is not clear exactly what Lindsay would need to do in a year to unlock his entire bonus. If he were to achieve it, he would take home a grand total of $823,879.20. That would be a little less than the $883,990.63 former CEO Phil Verster earned in 2024, his final year at the helm of the provincial transit agency. Verster was also given a vehicle allowance of roughly $12,000 despite not owning a car. That perk has not been extended to Lindsay. Story continues below advertisement Lindsay joined Metrolinx from Infrastructure Ontario, another provincial agency. There, he fronted several controversial government announcements like the closure of the Ontario Science Centre, as well as overseeing a massive portfolio of public land and construction projects.

Sign up for daily National newsletter Sign Up By providing your email address, you have read and agree to Global News' Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy He has run Metrolinx as an interim leader since Verster left and officially took on the role full-time on July 1. 'I am humbled and honoured to have been appointed as President and Chief Executive Officer of Metrolinx,' Lindsay said in a statement distributed by Metrolinx. 'As a proud resident of Toronto, and a lifelong transit commuter, I understand the importance of connecting the region and building the transit network communities need and deserve.' The Ministry of Transportation said Lindsay's salary was decided by the chair of Metrolinx's board, and bonuses would only be given for hitting certain targets. They said the bonuses written into Lindsay's contract followed the same structure as Verster's. Verster's tenure at the top of Metrolinx was plagued by delays to major transit projects like the Eglinton Crosstown LRT, which still does not have an official opening date. Ontario NDP shadow public transit minister Doly Begum said she was concerned Lindsay would face similar struggles. 'The former CEO collected an annual salary of almost a million dollars of taxpayers' money and what did we get for it? Confusion and more delays,' she said in a written statement. Story continues below advertisement 'We need full transparency and clear timelines. That's the only way we can make sure that another CEO doesn't get away with a huge cheque while front line workers get laid off.'
