Lindsay Lohan Hits Back At Dr. Drew

Posted Mon Jun 8, 2009 11:02am PDT by Andy Pemberton in Musictoob

Lindsay Lohan has hit back at Dr. Drew Pinsky after the TV doctor said Lohan was a drunk on a path to self-destruction during an interview.

"I thought REAL doctors talked to patients in offices behind closed doors. Am I wrong?" she wrote on her Twitter page. "Hmmm I think not."

She was responding to Pinsky's outspoken comments during an interview with Parade.

"I'm really convinced that something horrible is going to have to happen to [Lohan] before she really gets over it and embraces sobriety. She needs to give it up. And it's going to be a while before she does. I have this image that she's going to lose a limb or something before she does. And it scares me," he said.

In other Lohan news, Lindsay has seemed to confirm she is engaged to on-again/off-again lover Samantha Ronson. She was seen at London's Heathrow airport with a ring on her engagement finger and appeared to confirm the reunion on her Twitter micro-blogging page.

She tweeted today: "Leaving London but with my favourite favourite!!!-travel buddy&great news to share!! Maybe.... ;)"

Meanwhile Samantha has changed her Facebook relationship status from "Single" to "It's Complicated."

Dr.Drew was just trying to give some good advice....Some people have to learn the hard way.......

Actually Lindsay, you are wrong. In this new modern world, real doctors are in youtube, behind circuits and servers and Geek God-knows what.

3. Yahoo! Music User -
Lindsay you are wrong DR. Drew is a helpful person and only time he would say things like that out loud if you dont understand the message that he is givin you, like how you were drunk that day so dont throw a fit just hear what he is saying.

4. Gina T -
she is heading for self destruction.....Dr. drew is entitled to make comments just like she is.......she needs to GROW_UP and get some help......she is talented, but is just wasting it..

5. fritzy -
lindsey, america agrees. get help. now!

Everybody's getting so bent out of shape defending Dr. Pinsky - problem is, he *is* an M.D. (sorry carlos.guzman_ttu - but he *is* a "medical physician doctor", as you so inarticulately put it, so try to reel in your instinct to call people morons), and Lindsay is right: real doctors don't diagnose people they're not actually treating, and if they *are* treating them, they keep their diagnosis confidential between them and their patient.

That said, Dr. Drew is a Celebrity Doctor, which isn't really the same thing as a Real Doctor any more: he doesn't earn his living by treating patients in a confidential environment, he earns his living by exploiting the frailties of others for the sake of his own celebrity.

lindsey if you don't have anything intelligent to say, it's probably a good idea to keep your mouth shut. The persons who are arguing about wheather or not Dr. Drew is a real doctor or not is missing the point.they should think about wheather or not what he says make sense or not and if they agree with the retarded statements made by Miss Lohan.

9. Hot 977 -
LOL DR DREW is a joke.. if you have to go on tv and give lame advise. then something is wrong. Lindsey is right. He should be in a real medical office. There's a thing called conduct. Dr Drew has lost that years ago.

10. lady_beach_bum -
Who cares? LiLo is over and done...her 15 minutes of fame have passed the expiration date....

11. Katieboo -
wow. people need to keep things private but when things do get out, people need to get over themselves. *cough*lohan*cough*

12. Constance -
Really? Is she still not ready to get herself together? Where's mom at? Somebody needs to step in and give some good solid parenting advice to Dina Lohan. She needs help. Doc. Drew keep butting in, they need it.

13. gazoo -
In defense of Dr. Pinsky, Lohan is a public figure and has many many public drunken escapades reported over the last few years. Pinsky was making a statement about the path those drunken escapades can take her on, just as a lung doctor might comment on a very public person's 3 or 4 pack a day cigarette consumption. If you're going to be a celebrity train wreck, you have to assume people, even professionals will comment about it as a cautionary tale to yourself and others in your situation.
I applaud Dr. Drew for shedding light on the elephant in the living room. It's obvious no one else has the courage to approach Lohan about her rail thin body or drunken/drug-induced activities, and if they are, she's obviously not listening.
By Lohan's comments, we now know that she has heard what the Dr. has to say and hopefully that will make it through to her sensibilities and she'll get help, or someone close to her will help her get treatment.

Let her kill herself; more food for me.

WHAT EVER TO BOTH!!

Dr. Drew is a colossal [profane]. He comments on celebrities to provoke them, meanwhile the producers of his so called "rehab" show are probably offering Lindsay boatloads of money to sign-up, so they can exploit her.

17. Norma -
JUST LEAVE HER ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

18. hf -
dr. phil isnt even a doctor anymore. his lisence was revoked or suspended i forget which. so all he can do is publically call out people and cause drama. apparently he has a big issue with womans rights as well. he dosent let his wife work and likes to dominate everyone.
