From LiLo to LeahLo?

You might think Lindsay Lohan’s Monday morning Facebook status update would make light of some raucous weekend parties. Instead, it’s where the freckled star announced that she intends to convert to Judaism.
After attending the Saturday bar mitzvah of girlfriend Samantha Ronson’s half-brother Saturday, the 22-year-old star of “Mean Girls” and “Herbie Fully Loaded” told an onlooker there that she is “trying” to convert. Following the service, which took place at the Westminster Synagogue in London, Lohan joined the Ronson mishpaha for a bar mitzvah brunch at the Mandarin Oriental at Knightsbridge.
The Long Island-reared Lohan was raised Catholic. Her estranged father is a born-again Christian.
Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
