Lindsay Lohan Let Go Early from Ugly Betty

Just when I thought she was about to reboot her career…

Although she was previously scheduled to appear in six episodes (one last year, five this season), Lindsay Lohan’s run on Ugly Betty has just been cut short. The Mean Girls actress will now only be seen in only four. Why the change of plans? Well, the answer depends on who you ask.

According to New York Post sources, Lohan’s exit was either related to the star’s behavior or America Ferrera‘s treatment of her. A supposed friend of Linds claims the show’s lead treated the redhead badly. “America was mean to Lindsay. Producers give her too much power. Lindsay didn’t do the last two episodes because America didn’t like her and got her kicked off.”

Meanwhile, a tipster from the actual production crew said the dismissal was purely based on the short timer’s actions. “It was a mess. Lindsay would show up every day with an entourage of people. She smoked 24/7, and after she left, they had to repaint her dressing room it was such a mess.” That same source claimed Lohan would also refuse to go on set before Ferrera did.

Warning: Possible Spoiler Ahead!

It looks like Lindsay Lohan won’t be the only new person entering Betty Suarez’s life next fall. Although she spent a good portion of last season trying to sort her feelings for both Gio and Henry, Betty may soon have another man to deal with.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, hottie Val Emmich has just been cast a recurring character on Ugly Betty. Fans of 30 Rock may remember him as the young coffee boy who thought Liz Lemon was only 29. In this case, Emmich will aim for someone closer to his own age and play a possible new love interest for Suarez.
