And snarky observers were quick to note the presence of her full red lips, which looked especially plump.

Now that she’s back on the street, Linds had better be thinking about getting back to work. Her last two movies were commercial flops, but she seems keen to stay on the indie tip.

Her latest - Chapter 27, which tells the story of John Lennon assassin Mark David Chapman, is due to screen at the Sundance Film Festival next week.

Lindsay has appendix op - Jan 5 2007
Actress Lindsay Lohan is having surgery to remove her appendix, her publicist said.

In an email last night, Leslie Sloane Zelnik said the 20-year-old actress was "having her appendix removed. She is resting comfortably".

Celebrity website TMZ.com reported Zelnik as saying Lindsay was not feeling well on Wednesday and went to a doctor, who performed several tests and determined she was suffering from appendicitis.

Doctors asked her to return to the hospital yesterday to remove her appendix as a precaution, TMZ said.

Lindsay, whose screen credits include Bobby, A Prairie Home Companion and Freaky Friday, was treated for several hours at a Los Angeles-area hospital last July for overheating and dehydration on the set of Georgia Rule.

She was treated at hospitals twice in January 2006 - in London for a cut on her leg and in the Miami area for an asthma attack. In 2005, she was admitted to hospital suffering from exhaustion and lost a noticeable amount of weight.

Lindsay’s risque Boxing Day - Dec 28 2006
Not content with clubbing on Christmas Eve, Lindsay Lohan turned her partying up a notch on Boxing Day by turning up at New York strip club, Scores.

Entering the club at 12.30am to perform a half-hour DJ set after doing the rounds at hip New York clubs Bungalow 8 and Stereo, Lindsay apparently told onlookers: "I love strippers."

But once inside, she didn’t draw the line at DJing, according to an eyewitness, who told the New York Post: "[Lindsay] got up on the stripper pole and began to dance with the Scores Girls with 400 customers cheering her on.

"Then, she joined her entourage of 15 in the VIP area, and got lap dances from many of the girls, including a special double-dance from two strippers at once."

But the newly teetotal 20-year-old apparently stuck to her vow of sobriety, with the witness adding that: "While everybody was drinking, Lindsay was not. It was strictly Perrier for her."

Li-Lo, who’s set to play a topless dancer in her next film, I Know Who Killed Me, was apparently a big hit with the Scores girls.

"She was big tipper, and I think that she is great," dancer Katia told the New York Post.

Fellow stripper, Brooke, told the newspaper: "She’ll make a good stripper - she’s a natural."

Lindsay’s rep, Leslie Sloane Zelnik, had no comment.

"She’s been in rehearsals for the film and has been taking classes from Sheila Kelly," Leslie tells the New York Daily News.
