Lindsanity

Term coined by celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, refering to epic failure Lindsay Lohan.

Similar to Perez Hilton's La Loca LOLhan

So the LAPD rushed over to Lindsanity LOLhan's Hollywood home Tuesday afternoon after being notified of a break-in at the wacktress' humble abode. The alarm went off.

Police officers found all sorts of evidence of a "potential break-in and ransacking" until the cops realized La Loca Lohan's home has always been a pigsty!
