July 2nd, 2007 - Happy Birthday Lindsay Lohan!

Lindsay Dee Lohan (born July 2, 1986) is an American actress and pop music singer. Lohan started in show business as a child fashion model for magazine ads and television commercials.
She’s 21!
At age ten, she began her acting career in a soap opera; at eleven, she made her motion picture debut by playing both twins in Disney’s 1998 remake of The Parent Trap. Lohan’s breakout role as a leading actress came six years later with 2004’s Mean Girls, which shone the media spotlight on her professional and personal lives—including her nightlife and her parents’ marital and legal struggles.
As an adult, Lohan began to take on more varied roles and projects, including Robert Altman’s final film, A Prairie Home Companion. While filming Herbie: Fully Loaded in 2004, Lohan launched her career in music, recording and releasing her first studio album, Speak; her second album, A Little More Personal (Raw), was released in 2005.
Lindsay Lohan was born in The Bronx and grew up in Merrick and Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island in New York. She is the eldest child of Michael Lohan, a onetime actor, and the former Donata “Dina” Sullivan, who has claimed that she worked as a Rockette, though Radio City Music Hall records have failed to verify this claim. She has three younger siblings: brother Michael had a role as “Lost Boy at Camp” in The Parent Trap (1998), sister Aliana is an aspiring model and actress, and brother Dakota (Cody) has modeled fashions. Lohan is of Irish and Italian heritage and was raised as a Catholic. She originally pronounced her name ˈloʊhæn but later settled on ˈloʊən; in 2005, Lohan explained to a TEENick audience that she had decided to use Morgan as her middle name because it sounded more professional.
Lindsay’s family was financially comfortable; her father Michael Lohan had inherited his family’s pasta business, which he later sold to trade in futures (briefly becoming President of New York Futures Traders). More recently, he worked as an investment banker, securing funding for independent films. Lohan’s mother Dina, was a Wall Street analyst before becoming her daughter’s manager. Despite the family’s wealth, Lohan—when she wasn’t tutored on film sets—attended public schools on Long Island until just before her high school graduation, finishing her studies at home.
