Okay, it is true, we have written two past blogs about Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson and their Rolex watches. However, the situation just keeps getting stranger and stranger, demanding updates to the ongoing story. When Lindsay Lohan dropped $53,000 on a watch-shopping spree at Philippe’s Watches & Jewelry in Beverly Hills, we reported that she spent her own money. According to sources, the actress dropped the 53K in about 45 minutes–on three Rolex watches. The watches included one Rolex rose-gold President watch with a diamond dial (retail price at $30,000), one Daytona stainless steel and yellow-gold watch with a black mother-of-pearl dial at $15,000. The third was a gift, a stainless steel Rolex with black diamond skull in the center at $8,000. We have learned, however, Lindsay actually did not spend or even have the money. It was her lover Samantha Ronson who anted up big-time, and she quickly is becoming fed up with Lindsay Lohan’s wild spending habits. Lindsay Lohan reportedly is down to her last few dollars, with no film project in sight, over-spending habits and dependency on her lover Samantha Ronson for handouts. “She has no cash. The problem is, the money being spent is mostly Sam’s because Lindsay doesn’t really have any of her own at the moment; she’s really taken on the “man” role in their romance. Sam really thinks Lindsay needs to learn how to become a recessionista and manage her money better,” her friend told The New York Daily News. Evidence that the unemployed actress has been spending above her means includes the new Rolex watches from an ultra-expensive Beverly Hills boutique ($53,000) and a new Maserati (over $145,000). Not that Lindsay Lohan likes being out of work, especially with such an appetite for spending: “It’s scary when you realize, ‘Oh my God, I’m not working. And I have a house to pay for now’.”

Despite these fears, Lindsay Lohan is sick of being tabloid fodder. In a chat with E!, the actress reacted to recent reports that she is penniless and to the rumors that she and galpal Samantha Ronson fight all the time about money. “They need to stop saying we’re fighting,” the I Know Who Killed Me star tells E! News, “I’m really a good person and I have a good heart. . . . I don’t drink, I don’t do drugs and I don’t lie.” Lindsay Lohan, who reportedly is having trouble getting any acting jobs, says, “I want to help people by playing characters that can send a positive message out to whomever may need it.” Whatever the truth, Lindsay Lohan’s troubles underscore just how hard it can be for celebrities to live up to the fancy-dancy life they come to expect. According to financial planners, the rich and famous often fail to plan for the fact that their income is unstable, often peaking early in life, as well as stand up to the many hangers-on that ask for support. If she were smart like you, she would have bought her new Rolex watches at Melrose Jewelers where she could have obtained the same quality timepieces for a third of the cost, saving over $30,000. Yes, you can wear a beautiful Rolex watch studded with diamonds and you do not have to be a rich celebrity or a multi-millionaire to do it. With the expertise and precision of Melrose Jewelers, you can have your Rolex watch without ending up in the poorhouse.
