After Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson broke up, LiLo decided it was time for a change. Off to the hair salon to get a red dye job on her real hair and extensions. The day before, she had gotten a tattoo on her inner wrist with a Marilyn Monroe quote, “Everyone’s a star and deserves the right to twinkle” surrounded by colorful stars.
The Marilyn Monroe reference is not a new one for Lindsay; in one effort to revive her career, she did a photo shoot in which she posed nude save for a scarf, mimicking Marilyn’s last photo shoot. Lindsay also once claimed that she looked at Marilyn as an example of “what this industry can do to someone” but hasn’t exactly followed her own advice.
According to a source who has seen the new ink, Lohan, 22, got a Marilyn Monroe quote tattooed in cursive on her inner-wrist during her visit to the Shamrock Social Club in West Hollywood last week. Monroe’s full quote is: “Everyone’s a star and deserves the right to twinkle.” The wording is also surrounded by yellow, blue and green stars.
It’s no surprise that Lohan’s latest body art was inspired by the Hollywood legend. Last year, she recreated Monroe’s famous nude 1962 photo shoot for New York magazine, telling the publication at the time that Monroe’s life could serve as a cautionary tale. Namely, she said, Monroe was a “prime example of what this industry can do to someone.”
After her split with Samantha Ronson, Lohan has been struggling, a source says, noting, “She feels alone. All of their mutual friends have turned on her; she’s 22 but this would be tough to handle at any age.”

How would Lindsay not get the Marilyn Monroe quote/death by overdose correlation? Usually you don’t ink your body unless you understand all of the implications, but not Lindsay. I’m guessing that she just doesn’t understand how desperate and pathetic this makes her look.
I’m predicting a Britney-style meltdown very soon. First step is the shaving of the head, then the tattoo, then the bashing of a paparazzo’s car with an umbrella. Though I have the feeling that Lindsay is too vain to shave her head, the tattoo is a step in that direction. Someone needs to get her help, and fast.
