Last month, rumors that Lindsay Lohan is pregnant began to circulate online.
This wasn’t one of those cases where the social media got ahold of a blind item published by some sketchy tabloid and ran with it.
No, these rumors originated with Lindsay herself.
During a bizarre late-night social media rant, the actress accused her then-fiance of cheating on her, and hinted that she’s carrying his baby.
Shortly thereafter, her father, Michael Lohan, confirmed that Lindsay is pregnant, and we assumed that this was really happening.
The woman who was best known for raising 19 glasses of champagne every night would now be raising a child.
Then something strange happened.
The Lohan family went radio silent on the matter, and Lindsay’s best friend (whom we’d never heard of before this situation) issued a statement saying that Lindsay’s not pregnant, and we’re all totes crazy for ever thinking she was.
Needless to say, the whole situation is a bit confusing.
And this video isn’t helping matters:
We’re not here to criticize her body, and in fact, she looks perfectly healthy these days, but more than a few Instagram commenters have cited this video as evidence that LiLo is knocked up.
For one, there’s the slight possibility that she’s rocking a slight bump (which could easily be a food baby).
On top of that, some folks think Lindsay went into a seated position for her jump in order to protect her stomach.
Well, we hate to shock you, and you may even want to sit down before you read the next sentence:
Internet commenters are often dumb.
First of all, as an apparent rebuttal to the rumors, Lindsay posted this pic today:
Also, we know she’s not always the sharpest tool in the drawer, but we’re pretty confident Linds would know enough to avoid cliff jumping when she’s pregnant…
Or at least smart enough to not post video of it.
So there, you’ve made us defend Lindsay Lohan.
We hope you’re happy, Instagram dummies!
