Lindsay Lohan Celebrates 'Colored' President Obama

In a rare one-on-one interview with Access Hollywood's Maria Menounos, Lindsay Lohan spoke out on her love for Barack Obama.

The delivery, however, was made in true Lohan fashion—a little vague, a little controversial and followed immediately by talk of leggings.

"It's an amazing feeling, it's a whole, it's our first colored President," Lohan said.

At least, it sounds like colored.

Check the video and judge for yourself.

Colored? Like, highlights and low lights with a rinse, Linds?

Regardless of her odd (and antiquated) language, just assume her heart is in the right place.

Cue the leggings! Lohan also discusses the genesis of her collection 6162, named for Marilyn Monroe's birthday.

Quotables /

“In an interview with Access Hollywood’s Maria Menounos, Lindsay Lohan says the election of Barack Obama was “an amazing feeling — it’s our first, ya’ know, colored president.” Yeah, she actually called a black guy in 2008 “colored.” Lindsay, we don’t use that term anymore. Oh, and “colored” people, as you so eloquently put it, are allowed to eat at lunch counters nowadays. Shoot me an email (celebslam@gmail.com) if you need anything else cleared up (like who’s now allowed to ride in the front of the bus — the news may shock you).”

“What in the bigoted slip hell did she just say? Bisexual(?) Lindsay Lohan must have taken more than the prescription bottle advised because in an interview with Maria Menounos for Access Hollywood it totally sounds like she described Barack Obama as our first "colored" president. So that's how it is in their family. To be honest, Lohan is looking like she just came from a fairly successful key party and staggered to the interview area, but still. We'll know what's up when she appears on her new album cover in blackface.”

Socialite Life

“I'm pretty sure were not supposed to call black people "coloreds" any more, but Lindsay Lohan seemingly hasn’t heard about vitamins or conditioner or makeup remover either, so let's take it one step at a time. We have a lot of ground to make up.”

I'm sure Lindsay, is just repeating what she has been hearing for years. from other family members. I'm sure out of the "Colored people"s" hearing she uses a different name if you know what I mean. I could respond to ignorance with ignorance. But, what good would it do. So, word to the wise Lindsay, don't go around using that phrase so loosely, because some "Colored People" just might get with your drunk ass. If you know what I mean. Let, me put it simple You might catch a beat down from our fellow americans. Do, me a favor child and pick up a Black history book and attempt to read and learn some things about "Colored People". If it's not to hard of a task.
