While Lindsay Lohan was on the younger end of the age spectrum of those making an appearance at last night’s amfAR Gala, one certainly wouldn’t know it by looking at her. The “Mean Girls” actress looked far older than 25 as she posed for photos on the red carpet of the gala, held at Cipriani Wall Street.

Lohan’s overly bleached hair bordered on white, giving the star’s face an older cast. Her nude makeup further dulled her complexion. Meanwhile, her buttoned-up, long-sleeved white dress seemed stolen out of an older woman’s closet, while her jewelry had a distinctly bought-in-the ’80s vibe.

Perhaps years of hard partying and legal woes have taken their toll on Lohan. Or there could be another explanation for the star’s appearance — perhaps she is channeling the Gotti look.

Last April, Lohan appeared at the press conference for the film “Gotti: Three Generations,” in which she had been rumored to be in talks for the role of Victoria Gotti. Producer Marc Fiore confirmed at the time that Lohan was in talks for the film, though nothing had been finalized.

In October, Deadline reported that the movie, now called “Gotti: In the Shadow of My Father,” was having financial issues after casting high-priced stars like John Travolta and Al Pacino. Meanwhile, Lohan’s rep told USA Today that Lohan was finalizing her agreement for the film, to play Kim Gotti, wife of John Gotti III.

Perhaps Lohan’s amfAR ensemble is an attempt to show that she can easily look like a mob wife. It’s also possible that the starlet is looking to age herself in attempt to get more serious roles in general.

Incredibly, it looks like she is. The only allegations she faces these days (save for that tax mishap) are the typical celeb fare – frivolous lawsuits from crazy people.

According to court documents, Thomas A. Green is suing Lohan for $300,000 for “unfair business practices” and allegedly defrauding him in some online business deal.

Green claims he is a former U.S. Marine and says he recently spent time in a homeless shelter due to a “depreciated stage of delusion and hallucinations.”

Green believes he began corresponding with Lohan on Facebook on July 18, 2010, and makes references to both public Facebook and Twitter messages that the actress had posted in an effort raise awareness and funds for the disaster in the Gulf Coast.

Green seems to claim was duped by Lohan and when he pressed her about her true intentions, he uncovered a conspiracy about the killing of Osama bin Laden.

He goes on and on and on, but we’re just gonna stop right there, because this is going to be thrown out in about two seconds, and we have other things to talk about.

Like the sweater she’s wearing above. Wowza.

Sources close to Lindsay tell us she recently, and amicably, parted ways with her long suffering assistant Eleonore. We’re told Eleonore couldn’t keep up with Lindsay’s hectic life.

Lindsay’s new assistant — a brave soul named Alexandra … made her public debut at LiLo’s probation hearing last week (above). We’re told, at this point, she feels confident she can keep up with Linds.

Godspeed, Alexandra.

Lindsay — who will appear in court at 10 AM PT for her probation progress hearing — is in the final stages of negotiating the deal — this according to sources very close to the actress/perpetual defendant. We’re told the plan is to sign the deal early next week.

And we’re told … Lindsay is actually getting more scripts than she’s received in years — apparently producers have noticed she’s finally showing some maturity.

As for today … as we first reported Lindsay has completed the required morgue work and psychotherapy sessions. If all goes well, she’ll be off probation at the end of March.

Lohan, whose latest court appearance was scheduled for 10:00am local time Tuesday, was first linked to the Lifetime cable channel biopic “Liz and Dick” last week, but now it seems she has competition.

“I’ve been talking to Lindsay Lohan directly, and with her reps, and have been in conversations with other actresses, including Megan Fox,” Larry Thompson, the movie’s executive producer, told E! News. “It’s a very serious selection. It’s like casting for Hollywood royalty.”

However, TMZ sources claimed that Taylor lookalike Fox was not the frontrunner for the role and that Lohan is in the final stages of negotiating a deal to star as the legendary actress.

Her newfound “maturity” was reportedly landing the 25-year-old “Mean Girls” star the most movie offers she has had in years — and she could sign a contract for “Liz and Dick” as early as next week.

Lohan, who is currently completing a community-service sentence as part of her probation for a necklace theft conviction in May and a 2007 DUI case, could finish her sentence early to shoot the flick in Canada.

She will appear before Judge Stephanie Sautner on Tuesday to give her second probation progress report.

The actress has reportedly completed the required number of shifts working at the Los Angeles County Morgue and undertaken four psychotherapy sessions.

She has another hearing scheduled for Feb.22nd, and her final hearing is March 29.

Should she fail to complete the required number of days at the morgue or in therapy, she could be given a 270-day jail term.

Actress, Lindsay Lohan will be present before judge, Stephanie Sautner tomorrow, (17.01.12) for her second probation progress report and now that she has completed her morgue visits and psychotherapy sessions the star knows she will avoid jail.

Back in November, Lindsay was required to complete 12 morgue visits and 4 psychotherapy sessions by Tuesday’s court hearing and she has done just that.

Sources close to the ‘Mean Girls’ star told TMZ she has stuck to the probation order – but she was cutting it fine – after completing the last two morgue visits on Friday and Saturday.

TMZ report the actress has been a model morgue employee by getting the work done with no fuss and that she was friendly with the staff that worked there.

Lindsay awaits tomorrow’s hearing when she will be at the halfway mark of her probation.

But if the troubled starlet violates the terms the judge set out for her at any point she gets 270 days behind bars.

Lohan was spotted at The Weinstein Company’s annual after party to the Golden Globes, appearing at the Beverly Hilton hotel in a peach-coloured Prada gown.

Award winners and A-listers were om attendance as well, so it’s a little unclear how lil Lilo scored an invite given that she hasn’t made a movie since 2010.

This is also the first time we’ve seen Lindsay’s re-done pearly whites, and we have to admit she looked pretty good!

As the judge dictated back in November, Lindsay was required to complete 12 morgue visits and 4 psychotherapy sessions by Tuesday’s court hearing. Sources close to Lindsay tell us she’s done just that … but she completed the last 2 morgue visits on Friday and Saturday.

According to our sources, Lindsay has been a model morgue employee. Translation — She gets the job done with no drama and she’s friendly with the staff.

After tomorrow’s hearing Lindsay will be at the halfway mark of her probation. She has another hearing February 15, where she’ll have to show proof she completed another 12 morgue visits and 4 therapy classes. And on March 29 — her final hearing — she must show she’s completed the remaining 17 morgue visits and 6 therapy classes.

Should Lindsay slip up at any point, she gets 270 days behind bars.

We’ll be in court tomorrow.

Lohan’s due in court tomorrow for her second probation progress report, and according to the outlet, LiLo’s good-enough behaviour should please the judge: she’s just completed the 12 morgue visits and four therapy sessions asked of her, reports TMZ.

Just like her last progress report, it seems Lohan has succeeded at not doing some dumb shizz – dumb shizz that could land her in prison. (About that, TMZ notes that any slip up could have cost her a 270-day jail sentence.)

Congrats, kid! Of course, none of this will be official until she faces the judge Tuesday in L.A. Still, Lohan’s been celebrating something or other since last week, turning up — perhaps unexpectedly — at a variety of Golden Globes parties.

Last night, Lohan was spotted at The Weinstein Company’s annual afterparty, appearing at the Beverly Hilton hotel in a peach-coloured Prada gown.

Inside, UK tabloid the Daily Mirror photographed Lohan gabbing with her peers in the celebrity low-level leagues: Paris Hilton’s mom, Natasha Bedingfield. Award winners and A-listers were popping Moet bottles at the Weinstein bash, as well, so it’s a little unclear how Lohan scored an invite (and whether or not she might share her secret with the rest of us).

That said, she was at another Weinstein-hosted bash days earlier, the company’s pre-Golden Globes party at the Chateau Marmont Jan. 11, and though the New York Post’s Page Six reports they saw her getting flirty with guests such as Entourage’s Jeremy Piven, the New York Daily News says that Lohan wasn’t actually on the guest list. As per the paper, Lohan, a sometime resident of the hotel, snuck in through the backdoor then “made her way to the entrance for photo ops.”

Don’t ever say Lohan lacks talent, because that there is an admirable skill.

The 25-year-old actress has reportedly opened discussions with Lifetime to take on the role of the late screen legend in TV movie Elizabeth & Richard: A Love Story, which will focus on Taylor’s tempestuous romance with actor Richard Burton, according to Deadline.

The project is set to be produced by Larry Thompson and is being written by Christopher Monger.

Although Taylor was married to seven different men during her lifetime, she considered Burton to be the love of her life and she tied the knot with him twice before their romance ultimately ended in a second divorce in 1976.

The Cleopatra star died aged 79 in March 2011 from congestive heart failure.

If the project goes ahead, it will be Lindsay’s first acting role since she appeared in 2010 movie Machete.

The young star — who recently posed naked in Playboy — has seen her career take a back seat to her troubled personal life in recent years which has seen her have numerous court appearances, brief jail stints and undergo rehab treatment for alcohol and substance abuse.
