The New York Daily News’ Gatecrasher columnist Ben Widdicombe reports that cash strapped Lindsay Lohan has been openly asking friends for spending money, and that the 21-year-old received a mid five figure sum for being spotted out and about frequently with the nicotine lozenges Ariva, designed to get the rehabbed starlet to stop smoking.
Meanwhile, Us Weekly hears Lindsay’s mother Dina phoned up the mother of LiLo’s ex Riley Giles after he sold his story to the British tabloid News of the World as well as several private photos of the singer/actress. “Dina insulted her parenting,” a source revealed. And her father Michael claims he and Lindsay chewed out Riley for his actions, and that Riley apologized.
