Who said a little court-ordered downtime would stop Lindsay Lohan from acting?
Today she unveiled to the world her new role – as a spokesperson for online penny auction site Beezid.com.
Lohan (or, LiLo as the kids call her) has been serving a brief house-arrest sentence since May 26th. She was charged with stealing a necklace from a Venice, CA jeweler, plead no contest, was fitted with an ankle bracelet and ordered to spend 35 days inside her home. This means that she’s just over a week from freedom, sweet freedom.
But it looks like LiLo couldn’t wait to get back in front of the camera. She sent out this tweet a little while ago –

From that tweet we are directed to a brief commercial for Beezid.com, filmed from Lohan’s pad. Beezid.com is a small increment auction site that uses a bid system. Users register, purchase packages of “bids” and then use those bids to attempt to snatch up items for super-low prices.
“During some of my time at home, I found this amazing site with great deals – it’s called Beezid.com. Be sure to check it out,” she says. Check out the short ad below –
What did Beezid pay Lohan for the sub-15 second YouTube ad? $25,000 plus a $10,000 credit on the site. And you thought you couldn’t hate the world any more than you already do.
Remember, children: Crime doesn’t pay – unless you’re famous.
