How Lindsay Lohan infamously went from teen queen to tabloid target

On this week's episode, we examine, finally, thee Lindsay Lohan and how she went from Disney’s brightest child star in The Parent Trap and teen queen of Mean Girls to the ultimate tabloid obsession of the 2000s, before making an unexpected comeback with Netflix rom-coms, marriage, and motherhood. We trace her meteoric rise, her chaotic fall marked by arrests, rehab, and relentless paparazzi attention, and the infamous pop-culture moments that defined her (from the “holy trinity” nights out with Britney and Paris to her relationship with Samantha Ronson). We also discuss what her story reveals about early celebrity culture, how young women’s struggles were turned into punchlines, and why nostalgia has finally given Lindsay a redemption arc.
