Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson (fresh off of Fashion Week) woke up on this 9/11 morning and went straight to their MySpace blogs to deliver their messages of remembrance. If their "currently listening to" sections are to be believed, their blogging was soundtracked by John Lennon's "Imagine" and The Concert for New York City cd. Feel free to put one of those selections on now as you read their reminiscences. Lohan writes:
“I am in New York and I would like to remind everybody to take a moment today for those lost in tragedy that occurred on 9/11/01. thank you. xox L”
Meanwhile, Samantha had a little bit more to say, writing:
"waking up in nyc this morning 7 years later and it feels like just yesterday this city and our worlds were turned upside down.... never in my lifetime had I ever believed that I would see such horror- the kind that you see in documentaries set in far off places and read about in text books- never in my life had I ever thought that I would wake up and fall asleep afraid- watching things on television that felt like a film- walking through a city that felt like a war zone. there were army vehicles on houston street, barricades dividing neighbourhoods and lines around the block of people waiting to donate blood set in front of a backdrop of smoke filling a space where two of the largest buildings once stood. Two buildings that shaped one of the most famous skylines in this country, or in the world...... Seven years later and I will never forget. I don't really know what to say except to all those we lost we will never forget and never take for granted the sacrifices that you made. xoxo"
