Here’s a sign your career may be in a bit of trouble: you’re tapped to sub for Britney Spears. Sad, but that’s what it’s come to for Lindsay, taking Britney’s cast-offs. Brit Brit was supposed to host an event for Scandinavian Style Mansion but pulled out a couple months ago went she went totally batshit crazy (as opposed to her previous marginally batshit crazy) so Lindz was asked to step in. Man, isn’t that more along the lines of something Jennifer Love Hewitt would accept? I mean, it just seems so C-list. I don’t get it.

But…I guess Lindsay is figuring it’s A. getting her face out there and promoting the fact she is sober and responsible enough to show up for any craptastic job and B. keeping her from having Dina bug her to be on her even more craptastic reality show. Shit, I would guess a gig on a Tampax commercial would be preferable to that.

Lindsay also made an appearance at a collection premiere for designer Wayne Hadly this weekend. See? Anything for her to say “Sorry, Mom, I just can’t do it today.” Maybe she does have some brains in that pickled head of hers.
