LINDSAY LOHAN - LOHAN DEFENDS OUTSPOKEN FATHER

Actress LINDSAY LOHAN has defended her outspoken father MICHAEL despite of his verbal attacks against the star's girlfriend SAMANTHA RONSON - insisting her dad is not a "bad guy".
The Mean Girls star lashed out at her estranged father earlier this year (08), branding him a "bully" and a "coward" after he rallied against her relationship with the British DJ.
He later apologised for his description of Ronson as a "dark, hideous and a disgusting representation of humanity".
But the actress admits she's grown accustomed to reading his harsh words about her personal life in the press.
She says, "I would love to say it's surprising, but it's not. It doesn't bother me as much as embarrass and hurt me. And put a knife in my back. And it's hard because I was flipping through channels and someone on E! called him a loser. And that's my f**king father! He's not a bad guy. He's just making bad choices."
