Lindsay Lohan told British newspaper The Sun that her father, Michael Lohan, is the reason that she was introduced to cocaine.
“I was only aware of cocaine because of my dad. I was terrified of it. But I tried it because I was stubborn, stupid, and wanted to see what it was like. It’s not something I ever want to do again.”
Not only did Michael Lohan introduce his daughter to drugs, but he was the reason that she turned to them. When Lindsay’s father publicly spoke out about his rocky relationship with his daughter back in 2007, the young celebrity began to rely on cocaine and alcohol. Later in the year, Lindsay was admitted into rehab twice.

Toxicologists from Nevada’s Clark County Coroner made the announcement yesterday. Dubrow, 52, was found dead on November 25 in his home in Las Vegas.
Dubrow will be most remembered for his 80’s metal band’s cover, “Cum On Feel The Noize.” Quiet Riot released their newest compilation CD, “New and Improved,” in 2005.
According to Reuters, Kate Moss will not face drug charges in London after all.
The Crown Prosecution Services (CPS) of London has said they will not be laying charges in regards to the allegations Moss took illegal drugs at a recording studio last year.
Moss was questioned by police after the Daily Mirror printed pictures of the supermodel allegedly smoking cocaine. However, the police ultimately decided there was not enough evidence to formally charge her.
“The film footage provides an absolutely clear indication that Ms Moss was using controlled drugs and providing them to others. However, in the absence of any forensic evidence, or direct eyewitness evidence about the substance in question, its precise nature could not be established,” said Rene Barclay, the CPS’s London director of serious casework.
After the publication of the photos, Moss went into rehab in France and lost many modeling contracts due to the allegations.
