Lindsay Lohan Launches Lifestyle Site For Everyone Who Wants To Live Like Lindsay Lohan

Lindsay Lohan, everyone's favorite child-star-turned-is-she-okay-teen-starlet-turned-seemingly-okay-ish-adult, is taking a page out of Gwyneth Paltrow's hand-scripted, 100% biodegradable book and starting a lifestyle website.
A subscription to Lohan's lifestyle page, hosted onPreemium—a name presumably meant to conjure an air of exclusivity, but that instead makes us picture the nervous setting of a NICU—will run you $2.99/month. In exchange, you'll get "access to all my exclusive content and...all my secrets and breaking news before anyone else," Lohan promises. As of now, Lohan is the only celebrity on Preemium, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The nine posts currently up on Lohan's site boast tantalizing titles like "#MELOVESYOU" and "Behind the scenes: Photo shoot with male model ;)" Color us intrigued.
It's too soon to tell whether this "lifestyle brand" has legs, but if Lohan retains any of the trendsetting power of her teen idol days, women who came of age in the early aughts will soon be subscribing to Preemium by the hundreds. (Oh, come on, like you didn't try to give yourself red highlights at home after seeing Mean Girls in 2004.)
