Lindsay Lohan claims stolen passport, skips court

[HMG] – It’s been almost 48-hours since Lindsay Lohan’s last vapid publicity stunt, so it must be almost time for another. And true to her talents LiLo does not disappoint — She now claims she’s trapped in Cannes with no passport and can’t get to court.

The 23-year old alleged actress went to Cannes for no visible reason other than it’s the biggest annual hoe-down the film community has, and since she once made a film she thought she belonged.

The evidence does not support this.

Lohan has a court date in L.A at 830am tomorrow, but now claims she can’t make it because her passport was stolen, She even says she went to the airport yesterday to try and fly home, but without a passport she had no chance to board.

TMZ says an appointment has now been made at the U.S. Embassy in Paris tomorrow, at 9am local time, where a replacement is due to be issued.

Paris is nine-hours ahead of L.A., and even a direct flight to LAX takes 11-hours. So she’s stuck…If it’s true.

The obvious question therefore arises – Why not get the new passport yesterday – after the gig on the plane? Or on Monday when it was ‘stolen’?

Should Lohan fail to appear, Judge Marsha Revel has said she will issue an arrest warrant. But Lindsay’s pet lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley is clearly well trained;

“I was on the phone with Lindsay’s assistant the entire night and we’re doing everything we can to get her back to L.A.” he claims. “Lindsay is distraught because it was her intention to get back anddo more alcohol education and appear in court.”

Personally, I’d believe in Bigfoot and aliens on Mars before I’d buy this. She’s played games with the court in the past, and I’ll bet my last dollar this is merely round two…
