One year, later, however, Lindsay left the show for the lead role as twins in the remake movie, The Parent Trap.

Her major commercial success stared her right in the face was a lead role in another Disney remake: Freaky Friday (2003), starring Jamie Lee Curtis. In 2004, Lohan was given the lead in two films, Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen (her first feature that was not a remake) and Paramount's Mean Girls. Although the former one was also a moderate success, the latter movie made Lohan the icon she is today. The film became a major blockbuster and suddenly the whole world was interested to know more about this new famous glam girl. Tabloids were splashed with personal information and facts about her and she entered the big league of actors of Hollywood. In 2005, Lohan became the first living person to have a "My Scene Goes Hollywood" doll released by Mattel. She also voiced herself in the direct-to-DVD feature film based on the dolls. The same year she worked in another Disney movie, Herbie: Fully Loaded, the fifth film in the long-dormant Herbie series. 2006 saw the release of Lohan’s three movies ,the much publicized but box office failure, Just My Luck, A Prairie Home Companion which earned her rave reviews and the independent Emilio Estevez film, Bobby, opposite Elijah Wood. The latter one was released in 2006 and was also screened at the Venice Film Festival. Year 2007 proved to be not a good one for Lindsay with few releases and more drop outs due to her tryst with drugs, rehabs and car accidents ultimately leading to police arrest. A Woman of No Importance and Poor Things.

Lindsay later revealed in 2007 about her plans of taking out a third album soon. She has also sung in few of her movies including Freaky Friday, Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen etc. Lohan has been paparazzi’s favorite child with her remaining in controversies and scandals more than often. She had been so far involved in three car accidents. The recent one was on May 26, 2007 where she lost control of her Mercedes-Benz convertible and struck a curb. Lohan was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of driving under the influence of alcohol. She also admitted herself in rehab centre three times that year to correct her fixation for alcohol and drugs. On August 23, 2007, it was announced that Lohan would serve one day in jail and 10 days community service for both her DUI arrests. She will also be on probation for a maximum of 3 years. Lohan was also ordered to complete an 18-month alcohol education program, pay hundreds of dollars in fines and must complete a three-day county coroner program in which she’ll visit a morgue and talk to victims of drunken drivers.
