According to The Cut, Lindsay Lohan nearly caused a riot at Cynthia Rowley’s fashion show last Friday night. She didn’t, but more on that later.
The part everyone should pay attention to in the report is how everyone confused Lindsay for the crispy orange waif that is Donatella Versace and how the room filled with resounding gasps when they found out it wasn’t Versace.
For one glorious, confusing moment, we — and, we later learned, everyone in the rows around us — thought this walking creamsicle had to be Donatella Versace. Then, the entire room full of journalists sat ramrod straight and let out excited, disbelieving, four-letter expletives as we all realized this was actually Lindsay Freaking Lohan. We then simultaneously commenced trying to figure out if she was wearing pants. (They were shorts. Small ones. Very, very small ones.) — NY Mag
What an amazing compliment to be confused with this woman. Every girl one day aspires to be as glamorous the orange ball of leathery sex known as Donatella Versace.
But while The Cut titled their post “Lindsay Lohan Nearly Causes Riot at Cynthia Rowley,” nowhere did they describe anything close to it.
One photographer even went so far as to walk down onto the runway — which we’d been expressly forbidden to do, given that it was mirrored — and get in her face to take a photo, prompting event organizers to confiscate both his camera (which looked more expensive than her extensions) and his credentials, which they ripped from his neck with soap-operatic verve. The room applauded, led by Lindsay herself, as she settled into her seat between a shell-shocked-seeming Leigh Lezark — we feel you, Leigh — and Lindsay’s companion, who is either a Johnny Depp superfan or an actual pirate.
And now everyone is criticizing The Cut for the riot comment by putting up the video below proving the opposite.
Whatever though. The point here is there’s something very wrong when not causing a scene is some sort of big achievement. Oh, Lindsay Lohan didn’t embarrass herself in public today. Let’s give her a medal.
