With movie bosses running scared and few offers on the table, it’s hardly surprising that 25-year-old Lindsay Lohan’s struggling to make ends meet.

So what better way to earn a few dollars than by writing a tell-all autobiography?

A close friend tells Now: ‘It’ll be a no-holds-barred account of her drink and drug scandals, her relationship with Sam Ronson, partying with Paris Hilton and Britney Spears – and her secret affairs with Hollywood hunks.’

Li-Lo’s book is set to lift the lid on what it’s like living in the spotlight from the age of three, when she was first signed to Ford Models.

Lindsay Lohan’s closest associates are trying to get the troubled actress to complete her community service as she continues her partying ways, according to a new report.

“Lindsay’s team is telling her she needs to log significant time to show the judge that she is working towards completing her hours, but she is ignoring them,” told Radaronline.com.

Lohan, 25, was sentenced to 480 hours of community service as part of her probation for pleading no contest to taking a $2,500 necklace from a Los Angeles boutique in January.

“Lindsay’s rationale is that she has a year to complete the service, so she isn’t concerned about it right now,” the source added after Lohan appeared at New York Fashion Week in September and attended Kim Kardashian’s star-studded wedding in August.

The actress was given the sentence in May — in addition to jail time, which she served at home under house arrest, a Shoplifters Alternative Course, and psychological counseling.

But Lohan’s rep told NewsCore the actress is being conscientious about her service requirement vis-a-vis her professional commitments.

“Lindsay is working diligently to balance the demands of earning a living with her obligation to fulfill her community service requirement,” her spokesman Steve Honig said.

“How she is proceeding with her community service is between her and the Court,” he added.

At a hearing in late July, Lohan had only completed a paltry 30 hours of good deeds and the judge overseeing the case warned the “Mean Girls” star to not delay in working her 380 hours at a homeless shelter and 100 hours at the Los Angeles County Morgue.

Lindsay Lohan lost her phone while out partying in New York this past week and it reportedly held some incriminating photos that Lilo wouldn’t want anyone to see! Don’t worry though, there won’t be any nude photos of Lindsay hitting the web anytime soon, because someone found the phone and returned it.

The 25-year-old starlet reportedly lost her phone while out and about in NYC this past week for Fashion Week. Lilo apparently dropped the phone while leaving the V magazine party at Boom Boom Room. How did the finder know that it was her phone? Well, it reportedly said “Lindsay Lohan’s Phone” when they turned it on! That was a smart move on Lindsay’s part — if not a little weird. Who actually writes their own name on the screen of their phone?

Lindsay Lohan was said to be “ecstatic” when her phone was returned, least of all because it contained important phone numbers for those in the industry. She was also probably relieved that the person who found it didn’t try to extort money from her (maybe he or she knew Lilo is broke…) or sell the photos to the tabloids. Lucky for Lilo, one of the few remaining nice people in the world did the right thing.

Lindsay Lohan has to go to anti-shoplifting classes? What do they teach you, how to pay for stuff?
—Alice, via the inbox

Indeed, part of Lohan’s penance for that necklace-napping incident involves taking a class on how not to steal stuff. I was curious about what goes on in those gatherings, too…

… so I called Barbara Staib, director of the communications at the National Association of Shoplifting Prevention. Staib’s group offers programs for offenders, including court-ordered classes similar to the one Lohan may have to take. She says the program focuses on treatment, getting first-time offenders to realize why they steal and why they shouldn’t do it again.

“The classes we run are designed to help people if they are truly petty theft offenders, not professional shoplifters or people who shoplift to support a drug habit,” Staib tells me. “They’re shoplifting because of something going on with their lives, or something they perceive to be missing from their lives.”

In that sense, the classes are much like the programs offered to recovering alcoholics, gamblers, overeaters and the like.

The classes also make it clear how damaging shoplifting can be, and not just for the offenders who may have to go to jail or pay steep fines.

“In most cases, [offenders] view the stores as a big corporate entities with millions of billions of dollars,” Staib says. “But you’re also hurting individuals. People who work at these stores could lose their jobs because of your actions.”

As for Lohan, let’s remember that she lives in a rarified world. Celebrities routinely leave stores with merchandise with the understanding that their manager will soon call with a credit card number, or that the item will be put on a celebrity’s tab, or that the item is a gift, or a loan.

If that’s the source of Lohan’s theft, it would be addressed in a program like this, Staib says. “That’s a major sense of entitlement,” she notes. “She would have to figure out, why she thinks this way, why she thinks the rules don’t apply to her.”

As for cost, such programs, which usually involve a home study component and possibly one day-long class, usually set an offender back no more than $85. Let’s hope Lohan can still afford to spend that much.

Lindsay Lohan has her marching orders, but is she marching to the beat of her own drum?

The starlet was warned in July that it was time to start taking care of business regarding the terms of her probation, or else she would wind up behind bars. That would probably mean no products to promote, no celebrity weddings to attend and no nights out (eek!), so Lohan signed up for counseling and ratcheted up the community service.

Or did she?!

A report today stated that Lohan is still way behind when it comes to the 480 hours of community service she was ordered to perform, and that could mean trouble when she goes before a judge again next month.

We’ve seen pics of Lohan headed to a women’s shelter to do some good, but…that was awhile ago, and we’ve seen more pics of her not doing that since.

Smile for your booking photos, kids, because this rumor is…

So false!

“I’ve done tons of DWC community service,” Lohan told E! News. “You guys are way off par on your inadequate and negative assumptions.” (Hey, we were just checking on someone else’s negative assumptions!)

Lohan’s rep also assured us that all was on the up and up.

“Lindsay has been performing community service at the Downtown Women’s Center for months now,” the rep said. “There are dozens of paparazzi shots of her going in and out of the facility. How could anyone think she is not doing her community service?”

Well, great, but Lohan’s camp had best get her to the morgue on time, too.

In addition to 360 hours at the DWC, the actress must also work for 120 hours at the L.A. County Morgue—a frequently utilized deterrent when it comes to young folks on probation for drinking- and drug-related crimes.

Lohan’s latest sentence, which also included 35 days under house arrest, comes from repeatedly violating her probation stemming from dual DUI busts in 2007.

As of July 21, she had completed 33 hours of community service, which has to all be done by April 2012.

Her next progress report hearing is Oct. 19. Here’s hoping the judge makes some positive assumptions.

Lindsay Lohan has resorted to begging for jobs and obviously saw Ryan Seacrest as a good place to start. The disgraced starlet attended Kim Kardashian’s weddding, but spent more time pestering Ryan Seacrest for work than actually enjoying the party!

Lilo is reportedly looking to land a reality show so that she can be an A-list celeb like her friend, Kim Kardashian. Will that ever happen? For some reason, Lindsay Lohan’s life isn’t as appealing as Kim Kardshian’s!

“Lindsay was working just as hard as she was partying,” a source said. “She was pressing Ryan hard to dream up a reality show concept for her. Lindsay sees how Ryan turned Kim into an A-list star and she wants him to do the same thing for her.”

What did Ryan say to Lilo’s insistent begging? Nothing. He reportedly rolled his eyes every time she turned away and laughed behind her back. Even though Lindsay might have been a pain, that wasn’t too nice of Ryan!

Will Lindsay ever get her career back on track? It seems like she’s encountering one obstacle after an another lately!

It seems like hardly a day passes without Lindsay Lohan getting herself into some kind of mischief.

Yesterday was no exception as the Mean Girls actress had another brush with the law – this time being slapped with a parking ticket.

Lindsay left her monster Cadillac Escalade in front of a fire hydrant in Beverly Hills as she dashed to the Byron and Tracy hair salon – and the illegally parked vehicle was soon spotted by a traffic warden.

While the offence will cost Lohan a lot less that her string of drunk driving charges, she’ll have to pay around $70 for the careless act as it is a strict violation of the city’s traffic laws and considered to be a major safety hazard in case of an emergency.

Along with the parking ticket, the troubled actress should be worrying about her weight.

The bleach blonde 25-year-old had been looking healthier in recent months but has suddenly plummeted again, prompting concern that she may be obsessively dieting.

Lohan’s collarbones, ribs and shoulder blades were clearly visible under her super-short mini dress yesterday, that also revealed her skinny legs in platform wedges.

The actress has become known for her fluctuating weight, and this is not the first time the star has sparked concerns over her health.

After her weight plummeted in 2005 and she was admitted to hospital, Lindsay admitted she had become ‘too thin’.

In a 2006 interview with Vanity Fair magazine, Lindsay said she realised she was too skinny when she watched herself host U.S. comedy sketch show Saturday Night Live.
She told the publication: ‘My arms were disgusting. I had no arms.

‘My sister, she was scared. My brother called me, crying.

‘I was sick. Everyone was scared. And I was scared too.

‘I had people sit me down and say, “You’re going to die if you don’t take care of yourself.”‘

Lindsay’s Mean Girls co-star Tina Fey, a comedienne on Saturday Night Live, said: ‘(My co-star) Amy Poehler was good and tough on her saying, “You’re too skinny … I’m not going to ask you why, but you’re too skinny and I don’t like it.”‘
