The TV Guide is claiming that Lindsay Lohan is slated for as many as eight episodes on Ugly Betty. 8 episodes! I think everyone is trying to replicate Britney Spears’ ratings increase for How I Met Your Mother. Although everything is still up in the air, rumor is Lindsay will play a “hapless fast-food worker that Betty befriends”.
Multiple Ugly sources confirm to me exclusively that the comeback-hungry actress is in advanced discussions to guest-star in the show’s May 22 season finale, which is currently in production. But that, my friends, is not the big news.No, the big news is that Betty producers are currently talking to LiLo’s camp about bringing her back next season for a sizable arc – ” and I do mean sizable. We’re talking as many as eight freakin’ episodes.

I wish ABC would poll the Ugly Betty fans and see what they have to say about this. Almost all of the comments on websites posting this story, it appears NO ONE thinks this will help ratings – it will only hurt! I won’t watch.
I will NOT watch anything with Lohan in it. Can’t stand her.
Practice makes perfect. Lindsay may just end up a fast-food worker if she doesn’t watch her antics.
Could be worse they could ask posh spice (anorexic spice) to be on the show…. oh wait they already did that.
She’s doing the WHORE and ROLL again?
I love Ugly Betty, but if Lindsay Lohan’s really going to be on it, I don’t think I will watch that episode or those episodes.
Can’t stand her but, I think this may be her niche.
become Ugly Betty?, let’s see later. who is the worst, Ugly Betty or Lindsay Lohan??..
Lindsay is looking rough these days…hanging around with Samantha Ronson is not good for L’s looks. That hairstyle couldn’t be less flattering.
Will not be watching Ugly Betty if this is true.
Rumors of Lindsay being on Ugly Betty started months ago, before the writers’ strike. It doesn’t really have anything to do with Britney Spears. Britney didn’t help a lot with HIMYM’s ratings. I think all of the headlines that she gave the show its best ever ratings gave the impression viewership increased a lot. Only 1 million more viewers watched than normal and ratings immediately went back to 8-9+ million.
I think Lindsay will be hilarious. She IS a good actress. I enjoy her as an entertainer.
Actually, she’s a very poor actress. I’ve seen her in a couple of movies and to tell you the truth it was painful to watch her fake her way through them. I couldn’t even watch the movies to the end because her acting was so bad. I think her big Hollywood career is pretty much over. Too many people don’t like her anymore and won’t waste their time or money on her.
