Lindsay
Lohan Hospitalized in Los Angeles
7/27/06
Lindsay Lohan was hospitalized in Los Angeles yesterday (26JUL06) after
suffering from heatstroke and exhaustion on the set of her new movie.
The 20-year-old actress/singer was filming scenes for Georgia Rule when
she was overcome by the intense heat wave that has plagued southern
California in recent weeks.
She was taken by a private car to a Los Angeles hospital for treatment.
According to her representative Leslie Sloane-Zelnick, "She was
overheated and dehydrated."
Sloane-Zelnick says the star spent two hours in the hospital after
being given a Vitamin B shot.
She adds, "She was filming in 105-degree Fahrenheit (40.5 degree
Celsius) weather for 12 hours."
A friend of the actress tells American publication People the night
before her hospitalization, Lohan was partying at Hollywood nightclub
Guy's.
An observer at Guy's confirms to the magazine, "She was definitely
partying.
She wasn't over the top, but having a great time."
Lohan is expected to return to the film set today (27JUL06), when
she'll recommence shooting with co-stars Jane Fonda and Felicity Huffman.
The red head started the year off in hospital after a severe asthma
attack on
2 January (06) left her gasping for breath and in need of medical
attention.
Later the same month she needed 10 stitches in her shin after falling
on a broken cup at rocker Bryan Adams' home in London.
Lohan was also admitted to hospital in Los Angeles last February (05)
after suffering chest pains. The Mean Girls star was diagnosed with
bronchitis.
