Lindsay Lohan's downward spiral began when she turned 20, slipping into a cycle of self-destructive behavior that, by her own admission, nearly claimed her life. The situation grew so dire that devoted fans shared photos online wearing T-shirts emblazoned with the plea, “Don't Die Lindsay.” Between 2007 and 2010, Lohan faced a series of highly publicized arrests for drunk driving, cocaine possession, jewelry theft, car accidents, and altercations, interspersed with frequent stints in various rehab centers. “Amid all the drama surrounding my life, people forget that I just want to enjoy my 20s and spend time with friends when I'm not working,” she told EL PAÍS. Industry sentiment, however, suggested otherwise. Nina Jacobs, the producer of 'Herbie: Fully Loaded', one of the films that solidified Lohan's status as a teen icon, remarked: “It is heartbreaking to see someone with such charisma and on-screen allure squander it.” Simultaneously, Lohan's fame took on a different edge, with men's magazines like 'Maxim' naming her the sexiest woman alive.
