Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton.
Both had awful parents and public struggles with addiction, but people just like looking down on “party girls”
TBF I think Hilton was deliberate to some extent. She rode the wave of controversy she created and made a name for herself separate from the family name. She’s still controversial, but she’s independent.
Lohan was just an addict in a downward spiral chased by harsh public opinion. Unfortunately the public loves to see a star fall.
I mean wouldn't you want to separate yourself from people who put you in essentially an abusive prison/lockdown camp for nearly a year because they didn't bother trying to help you with your ADHD?

Here's comics/drawings someone made about their experience at a similarly run camp called the elan school.
I resented that culture insisted I care about people who, as far as I could tell, hadn't done anything. I don't care about how much someone parties, or if they're rich, or have a sex tape. Lohan was an actor, at least- I don't want to hear about Paris or the Kardashians because why?
