These are stories that I already had seen on TV, the national news, local news and in magazines. It is disgusting what these young celebrities are doing - being irresponsible citizens, driving under the influence with a suspended license and possessing cocaine plus endangering the lives of law-abiding citizens. They do not seem to care or learn a single thing about being ethical or law-abiding and are in and out of rehab. Wiping your greasy hands on a Gucci dress? What kind of craziness is this? These two definitely belong in jail. Where are their parents? We finally stopped hearing so much about Paris Hilton; now it is Ms. Lohan and Ms. Spears. They are just plain drunks and addicts and love the publicity. They could do such wonderful things for people who have nothing. The two of them are a total insult to the United States.
