Lindsay Lohan's 'Ugly' Run Cut Short

Copyright 2008 ABC / ABC
Lindsay Lohan's time on "Ugly Betty" has reportedly been cut short from six episodes to just four. According to a report in Page Six, an on-set rivalry with America Ferrera may have been to blame.


Page Six says a production source gabbed about the whole ordeal, blaming diva-like behavior. "It was a mess," the source is quoted as saying. "Lindsay would show up every day with an entourage of people ... and refused to go on set until America was there -- it was a power play."

However, someone on team Lohan told the paper: "America was mean to Lindsay. Producers give her too much power. Lindsay didn't do the last two episodes because America didn't like her and got her kicked off."

Reps for both stars commented, saying, "America is grateful to have had [Lindsay] on the show and thinks everyone should tune in to see how great the episodes are."

Lohan's rep said, "Lindsay was scheduled for six episodes and is appearing in four but had a lovely time."

  • I'm glad Lindsay will not continue on the show. This diva like behavior is not necessary. America is way better for the show to have it taken away by anyone like Lindsay.

  • La Lohan better get her act together because it is in free-fall. A six episode guest shot on one of television's most popular shows might have given her career (!) a little life, but she blew it by being the diva with all the accompanying attitude...

    • You'll be happy to know that she was cut (ever so slightly) during the first episode. When the paramedics found out she was a "bleeder", all on the set were very careful not to leave anything sharp so that she wouldn't get cut again. See, they...

  • Linds needs to grow up and realize that there are a world of talent people out there and she is NOT at the top of the list, if she can't behave like a lady then there are a hundred more who would love to be where she is.
