Lindsay Lohan hits out at police chief who said she had 'gone gay'

Defensive Lindsay Lohan told the Los Angeles police chief to keep out of her personal life after he made remarks about her 'going gay'.


The 22-year-old actress said the police had no business commenting on her personal life after LA's Chief William Bratton claimed the city's paparazzi problem had calmed down since Lohan's close friendship with DJ Samantha Ronson.

Lohan and Ronson - sister of music producer Mark - were at Los Angeles airport catching a flight to Chicago when she told a paparazzi who was filming her:

'Police chiefs shouldn't get involved in everyone else's business when it comes to their personal life. It's inappropriate.'

Chief Bratton said a reduction in paparazzi activity was thanks to Britney Spears, Paris Hilton and Lohan leading more moderate lifestyles.

He told television station KNBC-TV: 'If you notice, since Britney started wearing clothes and behaving, Paris is out of town not bothering anyone any more, thank God, and evidently, Lindsay Lohan has gone gay, we don't seem to have much of an issue.'

Bratton made his comments after he refused to take part in a LA City Council meeting held on Thursday to discuss new laws to curb problem paparazzi, claiming it was a 'waste of time'.

He later called a press conference outside the police headquarters to 'clarify' his position on the paparazzi where he claimed his sister was gay and that he was a proponent of gay rights.
