ACTRESS Lindsay Lohan has been battling her drink and drug demons for almost TEN years and first overdosed aged just 18, The Sun can reveal.
The shocking claims come in an exclusive interview with her worried dad Michael Lohan, who reckons his daughter’s once glittering Hollywood career is OVER unless she sorts herself out.
According to Michael, Lindsay’s first brush with drugs came when she was filming the rom-com Just My Luck in 2005.
A box office flop, it was Lindsay’s first movie role after Michael and her mum Dina legally separated — a break-up that hit her hard.
At the time news of her meltdown angered Michael so much that he was prepared to SHOOT the assistant who gave her the drugs.
Michael, 53, says: “Lindsay was filming in New Orleans and I got a call saying she had overdosed on cocaine. One of her assistants had given her the drug.
“I was so angry I got a gun from the house and planned to go to New Orleans to kill him.
“I couldn’t believe what had happened to my daughter. I was just so angry.”
However, Michael’s revelations contradict his daughter’s own recollection. Lindsay recently claimed she has only done cocaine “four or five times”, first trying it aged 21.
Yet there can be no doubt that Lindsay, now 27, is still struggling with her addictions.
