Felicity Huffman jumps to Lindsay Lohan’s defence


Desperate Housewives actress Felicity Huffman has jumped to the defence of fellow actress Lindsay Lohan, insisting that the young star was a delight to work with on the set of the new film “Georgia Rule”.
Felicity Huffman plays the 20-year-old actress’ alcoholic mother in the film, which also stars Jane Fonda, and she has nothing but praise for the Mean Girls star.
This comes after a producer of the film publicly admonished Lindsay for her tardiness on set and even Jane Fonda admitted she was forced to march into the young actress’ trailer when she was late for a scene.
Felicity hopes that once moviegoers see the new film, the “gossip” surrounding Lohan, who recently underwent a stint in rehab to curb her wild ways and alcohol abuse, will disappear.
She tells Parade magazine, “To me, Lindsay was a complete and utter delight.The minute I met her I just loved her. She meets you with an open heart and wide-open eyes and gets right in there.”She cares about the work. She throws herself in 100 per cent. I just adored her. She’s fantastic in the movie. It doesn’t get any better than what she did. Brilliant.”
