Lindsay Lohan Thanks Anthony Weiner

While hosting “Chelsea Lately” last night, a newly released Lindsay Lohan opened by thanking her fellow celebrities for giving us all something to talk about while she was in rehab.

As you all know for the past 90 days, I’ve been on a lovely court-ordered vacation in Malibu, she quipped, adding: “I have a lot of people to thank, most importantly, the celebrities who kept the tabloid industry alive in my absence – like Anthony Weiner!” she said as a Weiner paraded onstage. “I would like to thank him for being such a dick, with an unlimited texting plan!”

Lohan was also to Kanye West “for acting like a baby and making a baby,” and Justin Bieber “for peeing where you shouldn’t, spitting where you shouldn’t and wearing your pants where you shouldn’t.”

Welcome back LiLo!

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.

With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.

The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.

Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
