Frankie Muniz: (in 2007 about Lindsay Lohan in rehab) She's going to come back an even bigger celebrity than she already was, and that sucks. Her last four movies have failed miserably, but she's still going to have a $10 million paycheck. As a young actor, you have to mature very fast in the Hollywood business, and there aren't enough people who say "no." When Lindsay was pulled over for a second time for a DUI, nobody said, "I'll never work with her again." It's ridiculous to me.(edit)
