“Free Lindsay Lohan” Rally In Manhattan Tuesday

Beach Bum Tanning Salon serves as Lindsay Lohan’s stomping ground whenever the Long Island-born terror blows into the Big Apple for a bit of R&R. In fact, the Manhattan facility has been lathering up The Lohan Clan with orange goo for more than a decade. That’s precisely why Beach Bum owners are hosting a “Free Lindsay Rally” outside their establishment this afternoon.

The salon held a similar rally when the State of California pinched heiress Paris Hilton on probation violation charges in 2007.

Hey — you campaign for world peace. Other people campaign for effed-up starlets.

Beach Bum hopes to “draw awareness to the harsh punishment inflicted on Lohan due to her celebrity status.” (The phrase “Chile Puhleeze” springs to mind!) The event will feature a ribbon-tying ceremony, presumably to represent the alcohol-monitoring shackle the courts had tied on Lindsay’s ankle before she began her sentence.

A presser obtained by Gawker.com this week reads: “Lohan began her sentence on July 20, 2010 at a Hollywood facility after a trial that was filled with media attention and paparazzi presence. The actress is set to be released in October; however, she may be let out early due to overcrowding. The owners of Beach Bum miss seeing her at the salon and hope for her speedy return…. The ceremony kicks off, Tuesday July 27, 2010 at 12 P.M. at the 239 7th Avenue salon location, with a press conference and ribbon tying ceremony. On display will be a prominent homemade Sign across the building saying ‘We love you Lindsay! Come home soon.’”

Try as they might, it looks increasingly unlikely that the tanned-to-a-tangerine masses of the City That Doesn’t Sleep will be successful in their bid to have Lohan released from her new home at the Century Regional Detention Center anytime this week.

The 24-year-old actress — who is only six days into a 90-day jail sentence for breaking the terms of her probation for a 2007 driving under the influence (DUI) charge — had hoped to be released this week due to prison overcrowding, but a jail spokesman has confirmed that will not happen.
