Jane Fonda says that Lindsay Lohan needs to take a break from partying. The people at usatoday.com give us this:
NEW YORK (AP) — Jane Fonda praised a studio executive’s recent scolding of Lindsay Lohan for her absences on the set of their film, Georgia Rule.
“I think every once in a while, a very, very young person who is burning both ends of the candle needs to have somebody say, ‘You know, you’re going to pay the piper, you better slow down.’ So I think it was good,” the 68-year-old actress told Access Hollywood in an interview to air Tuesday.In July, James G. Robinson, CEO of Morgan Creek Productions, chided Lohan, 20, in a letter for her behavior on a movie set and doubted her absence was related to heat exhaustion. “We are well aware that your ongoing all-night, heavy partying is the real reason for your so-called ‘exhaustion,'” he wrote.
Fonda agrees.
“She’s in the magazines, so you always know what she’s doing because you can just read about it in the tabloids,” she says. “She parties all the time … And you know, she’s young and she can get away with it. But, you know, it’s hard after a while to party very hard and work very hard. She learned that, I hope.” Fonda is still sympathetic toward Lohan, who is estranged from her imprisoned father Michael Lohan.
“I just want to take her in my arms and hold her until she becomes grown-up,” she says. “She’s so young and she’s so alone out there in the world in terms of structure and, you know, people to nurture her. And she’s so talented.”
I think Jane Fonda is the perfect person to be commenting on Lohan’s thoughtless behavior. Because we all do things we regret, like for example poising on anti-aircraft battery used against American aircrews during the Vietnam War. Honestly though it is good for Fonda to comment because she is a perfect example of a person doing something without thought about the concequences. Now Lohan did something stupid and like Fonda in the sixties she is paying for it publicly. She could learn a lot from Fonda’s mistakes.
Unfortunately experience is often the best teacher and I have a feeling that Lohan will be finding out the hard way. Lindsay Lohan is going to have to be amazing in Georgia Rule or else her next line of dialogue will be “why doesn’t anybody want to take my picture?”.
