Celebrity Photos, Gossip, Lindsay Lohan, Movies
On her last album, A Little More Personal, Lindsay Lohan
covered "Edge of Seventeen," a Stevie Nicks song. It seems the
experience has left a mark on Lindsay as she's now attempting to get
the rights Stevie's story so that she can make it into a film,
reports Life & Style Weekly.
An insider told L&S, "[Lindsay] says that movies like Ray and Walk
the Line are good examples of the kinds of projects she'd like to
do. She feels like she's found a dream role in a story about Stevie
Nicks at the height of Fleetwood Mac's fame. Lindsay loves the music
of that era, and [people] have told her she has the same distinctive
gravelly voice as Stevie's."
Lohan is also hoping that her former flame - and the co-star of her
upcoming film, Chapter 27 - Jared Leto, will sign on for the movie
as well. Lindsay has Jared in mind for the role of Stevie's
Fleetwood Mac bandmate and lover, Lindsey Buckingham. The L&S source
revealed, "[Lindsay] keeps saying what a great team they are on-
screen and that she has always wondered why [Jared] didn't have a
bigger career."
The magazine claims that Lindsay is being very proactive in the
process of securing the rights to the movie. She may even serve as
one of its producers. This wouldn't be the first time Lohan has
taken on extra responsibility. She directed the video for her
song "Confessions of a Broken Heart."

It's no secret that Lindsay Lohan parties up a storm, but the rave
reviews she's getting for her performance in her newest film, Bobby,
prove the girl's got major talent, too!
Now an insider tells Life & Style the 20-year-old spitfire is
looking to take her career to the next level by angling for a role
that will merge her love for singing and acting…and hopefully get
her that Oscar she's been dreaming of!
"She says that movies like Ray and Walk the Line are good examples
of the kinds of projects she'd like to do," the insider says. "She
feels like she's found a dream role in a story about Stevie Nicks at
the height of Fleetwood Mac's fame. Lindsay loves the music of that
era, and [people] have told her she has the same distinctive
gravelly voice as Stevie's."
Lindsay is working behind the scenes, says the insider, to get the
rights to the story so she can produce it herself. She even has a
leading man in mind to play Stevie's longtime love and Fleetwood Mac
band mate, Lindsey Buckingham — dreamy Jared Leto!
"She keeps saying what a great team they are on-screen and that she
has always wondered why he didn't have a bigger career," says the
insider.
