Lohan starred as Anna Coleman alongside Jamie Lee Curtis in the 2003 family comedyFreaky Friday.At Lohan's own initiative, her character was rewritten and changed from a Goth style to be more [19] relatable. Critic Roger Ebert wrote that Lohan "has that Jodie Foster [20] sort of seriousness and intent focus beneath her teenage persona." Freaky Fridayearned Lohan the award for Breakthrough Performance [21] at the 2004 MTV Movie Awards and, as of 2010, it remains her most commercially successful film, earning $160 million [22] worldwide as well as an 88% approval rating on Rotten [23] Tomatoes.

In 2004, Lohan starred in two lead roles. The first,Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen, earned a domestic box office total of $29 million, with Brandon Gray of Box Office Mojo commenting that it was "well above expectations [26] [27] as it was strictly for young girls." The film overall, however, did not meet with critical acclaim. Robert K. Elder of Metromix wrote that, "though still a promising star, Lohan will have to do a little penance before she's [28] forgiven forConfessions." The teen comedyMean Girlswas Lohan's first movie independent of Disney. The film was a critical and commercial success, grossing $129 million worldwide and, according to Brandon Gray, "cementing her status as the new teen [26] [29] [30] movie queen," while Steve Rhodes wrote that "Lohan dazzles us once more. The smartly written script is [31] a perfect match for her intelligent brand of comedy." Lohan received four awards at the 2004 Teen Choice [32] Awards forFreaky FridayandMean Girls, including Breakout Movie Star.Mean Girlsalso earned her two awards at the 2005 MTV Movie Awards, Best Female Performance and Best On-Screen Team along with several [33] other cast members.

Lohan cowrote six of the twelve songs on the album. The album was praised by Linda McGee of RTb, who awarded it 4 out of 5 stars and commented that "Speakopens with all the raw emotion and teenage angst that you'd expect from an artist of Lohan's age," and that, "while her vocals are not [37] sensational, their gritty edge keeps Lohan more than afloat throughout this album" as well as comparing the [37] album to the early music of Avril Lavigne. Allmusic, however, awarded it 2 out of 5 stars and claimed the album [38] "feels more like a byproduct of an overdriven, overamplified celebrity culture than an actual album." Though primarily a pop album,Speakwas introduced with the single "Rumors." Described byRolling Stoneas "a [39] [40] bass-heavy, angry club anthem," "Rumors" details Lohan's complaints with the paparazzi and eventually [41] earned a Gold certification in the United States.

[10] [11] Lohan's parents legally separated in December 2005 and finalized their divorce in 2007. Lohan spoke in 2007 about her childhood: "I feel like a second parent in the sense that I helped raise my family...I was put between my mother and father a lot. Well, I would put myself between them to try and keep the peace, and I felt good doing [60] that." Despite the conflicts, Lohan calls herself "a family girl" and has spoken very fondly of her family, [61] [62] including her father. However, in 2007 and again in 2008 she stated that she was no longer in contact with [63] [64] [65] him, describing his unpredictable behavior as hard to deal with.

On November 15, 2007, Lohan served 84 minutes in jail. A sheriff spokesman cited overcrowding and the [125] nonviolent nature of the crime as reasons for the reduced sentence. The probation was extended by an additional year in October 2009, following several instances in which Lohan failed to attend the court-ordered substance abuse [126] treatment classes. Following a switch to Universal Motown, Lohan began working on a third album, tentatively titledSpirit in the [127] [128] [129] [130] Dark, in late 2007 and released "Bossy" in May 2008.

In the 2008Spring Fashionedition ofNew Yorkmagazine, Lohan re-created Monroe's final photo shoot, known asThe Last Sitting, including [142] nudity, saying that the photo shoot was "an honor". TheNew York Timescritic Ginia Bellafante found it disturbing, saying "the pictures ask viewers to engage in a kind of mock necrophilia. ... At 21 [Lohan] seems even older than Monroe, who was 36 in the originals ... [and] the [143] photographs bear none of Monroe's fragility". In 2008, Lohan launched a clothes line, whose name6126was designed to represent Monroe's birth date (June 1, 1926). The line started with leggings, before expanding to a full collection, covering 280 pieces as of April [144] [145] [146] 2010.

During the 2008 US presidential campaign, Lohan offered her services to Barack Obama's election effort, including hosting events aimed at young voters; but her offer was declined. An unnamed source within the Obama campaign told theChicago Sun-Timesthat Lohan was "not exactly the kind of high-profile star who would be a positive for [153] us." She nonetheless posted MySpace blogs with her opinions on the election, urging voters to support Obama, criticizing media coverage of vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin, and describing Palin as homophobic, [154] [155] [156] [157] anti-abortion and anti-environmentalist.

In April 2009, following her breakup with Ronson, Lohan appeared in a skit on the comedy website Funny or Die. [164] The self-deprecating video is a spoof of the personal ads on dating website eHarmony. It was viewed 2.7 million [165] times in the first week and received favorable comments from the media.
In the 2009 comedyLabor Pains, Lohan plays a woman who pretends to be pregnant. During the shoot, Lohan's [166] manager worked with the paparazzi to encourage the media to show her working, as opposed to partying. It was originally planned for a theatrical release, but instead appeared as a TV movie on the ABC Family cable channel in [167] [168] July 2009, "a setback for the star" according toVariety. The premiere received 2.1 million viewers, [169] "better-than-average" for the channel according to E! Online. Joanna Weiss ofThe Boston Globecommented [170] that Lohan "looks to be coasting through a part that requires little effort, anyway". Alessandra Stanley of the New York Timessaid "this is not a triumphant return of a prodigal child star. ... [Labor Pains] never shakes free of [171] the heavy baggage Ms. Lohan brings to the role".
Lohan was a guest judge on US TV style contestProject Runwaysixth season premiere episode, which aired in [172] [173] August 2009. Also in August 2009, Lohan's home was burglarized by The Bling Ring, a group of fashion-motivated burglars whose ringleader considered Lohan to be their ultimate conquest.

An Indian charity group criticized Lohan for a Twitter post where she appeared to take credit for one of their raids, [183] [184] but the BBC said it was a misinterpretation. A reviewer forThe Timessaid that rather than highlight [185] trafficking "the spotlight was effectively turned on Lohan and under it she wilted." A review inThe Independent found it "very compelling" and said that the inclusion of Lohan was "definitely not a terrible choice. Just a very, very [186] odd one." Lohan said the experience was "truly humbling" and "I hope my presence in India will bring [187] awareness to the really important issues raised in making this film." [188] In April 2010 Lohan was cast as adult-film performer Linda Lovelace, star ofDeep Throat, in the filmInferno. In November, while Lohan was in court mandated rehab, the offer was withdrawn with one producer saying it was [189] impossible to insure her. The co-owner of Dina Lohan's production company said that Lohan had made the [190] decision to leave the movie: "She was definitely not fired." He also said that she is "100 percent insurable." Lohan appears in one sketch in the movieUnderground Comedy 2010. She is dressed up as Marilyn Monroe, while still visibly wearing a SCRAM bracelet, and shoots at paparazzi photographers. As of September 2010, the movie [191] was still seeking a distributor. In May 2010, Lohan did not appear for a scheduled DUI progress report hearing. The judge issued a bench warrant for Lohan's arrest, but rescinded the warrant after Lohan's representatives posted bail. Lohan's lawyer said her passport was stolen while she attended the Cannes Film Festival in France. At a rescheduled hearing on May 24, 2010 Lohan was ordered to attend weekly alcohol education classes, wear an alcohol-monitoring bracelet, refrain [192] from drinking alcohol, and undergo random weekly drug tests to remain free on bail.

The short term served was due to a policy of early release of non-violent offenders to reduce jail [201] [202] overcrowding. She was immediately taken to an inpatient rehabilitation facility where she was expected to [201] [203] [204] [205] stay another 90 days. However, on August 24 Lohan was released after only 23 days.
