Lock up your liquor and jewelry, Lindsay Lohan is in town. The troubled former film star flew into New York with her mother and sister last night after getting permission from a judge—maybe you've seen something or two about her latest legal troubles? Not that the trip was a smooth one for LiLo. Upon arriving in JFK she felt she was set upon by paparazzi. Though you'd think she'd be used that by now.
"I love ny - but the paparazzi @ jfk just gave me an anxiety attack..... i was half asleep! they're such animals :(" the Long Island-native tweeted last night. Meanwhile her enabler mother Dina texted the Daily News "Just landed in NYC. We r safe now." As for your next question, we have no clue why Dina texted the Daily News.
Where was Lindsay's dad Michael? He's still in LA filming Celebrity Rehab according to his tweets.
And just to round out your Lindsay news for the day, according to TMZ the actress—who has not yet decided if she'll take that plea bargain which would send her to jail again—has quit smoking cold turkey. But now that she's back in New York she can always ask for free patches and gum if she gets desperate.
