Ugly Betty Fan Lohan "Flattered" by ABC's Interest

Lindsay Lohan by Jamie McCarthy/WireImage.com

Lindsay Lohan is "totally looking forward to" guest-starring on ABC's Ugly Betty, once the whole WGA strike thing is over, of course. "She loves the show," the starlet's publicist tells the New York Post, and "was flattered there was interest in her. They talked character points" — Lohan would play a restaurant employee befriended by Betty — "and she loved [the idea]." Officially, though, no deal is in place yet.

UGH!!! Seriously?? Why would they pick her? There are plenty of talentless actresses out there that they could've picked from. Why would they pick the worst of all?

Well I think Lindsay is a good actress, I wouldn't say the best but not terrible. I saw two of her movies: Mean Girls and Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. She was good in both of those. I just think she just needs to work out her personal issues if she plans to have longevity in Hollywood.

I, too think she is a pretty good actress. She could have, and maybe still can, get much better if she can take control of her personal life.

I was always a closet Lindsey fan so I hope she gets the opportunity and makes the most out of it. I have a hard time really rooting against a 21 year old girl.

She was fantastic in Mean Girls, so if she stays sober and keeps her head above water, I'm all for her appearing on Ugly Betty.

I love LiLo!!! Although I'll never admit that to anyone. She's a terrific actress and just needs better material...err...parents. I loved her on Mean Girls and Parents Trap. Anybody remember her SNL hosting gig??? She definitely has the comedic acting chop. Hope Betty takes her under her wing and helps her stay sober. If she can do that for Daniel, she can do that for LiLo.

NOOOO! Why must they do this to me? I don't want to quit watching the show, and I won't, unless it's just too unbearable. Why ruin a good thing?

She actually was a good actress when she was much younger...when she was on the soap "Another World" and in the movie "Parent Trap." The problem is that if she is too busy partying and into addictive behavior, many producers will not want to use her. She can be considered unreliable and the companies insuring productions will require a higher rate because of the risk she offers.

Are they trying to kill the show off? I know I won't watch if that nutjob is on the show. ABC seriously needs to reconsider their decision.
