We have always been a fan of Lindsay for her acting but it looks like she is having doubts about her abilities. She's evidently concerned about being able to pull off a British accent for her upcoming role in A Woman of No Importance. She's especially afraid of being compared to Dick Van Dyke who was heavily criticized for his unconvincing cockney accent in the film Mary Poppins. She says:
"I'm going to London in the spring to make a movie with KEIRA KNIGHTLEY. It's a period piece and my character has a British accent. But it's crazy. If I hang out with a British person for an hour or so, I start talking just like them. I can pick up accents pretty well. But I don't want to be remembered like Van Dyke.
Oh Lindsay, we have so many other things to remember you by. That guy couldn't even make the top ten. For more pics of LL with her fabulous latest purse and cute blue top, read more

ugh...why does she still get movie roles?
1I'm impressed she even KNOWS WHO DICK VAN DYKE IS!!!! shocker. Maybe she's been watching Nick at Nite.
2yeah...really, the girl needs to take a break from movies, she probably has no clue to what anything is in the world besides drugs, sex, and clubbing. I heard her movies are getting bad reviews so Im suprised shes wanted
3She did pretty well with a British accent in The Parent Trap back when she was still a kid. But she's killed a bunch of brain cells since then, so maybe that's why she's worried.
4Could she just SHUT UP and show some respect by not referring to Dick Van Dyke by his last name only. He'll be remembered long after her ass is history.
5She's annoying! JUST LIKE CAPS! hahaha

6Only like her in Mean Girls and I love that bag.
7I would rather hammer railroad spikes through my ears and into my brain than listen to her try to attempt a British accent.
8i like her wardrobe. always have. but not the lifestyle.

Don't tick me off. Or you'll get it.
blah, everything about her gets on my nerves..
10she makes me sica...hahahag
11like the bag... HATED Her accent in parent trap- it was so contrived and weird...why not hire a british actress for the part???
12well, i loved mary poppins, so humph!
13well, in dick van dyke's defense... Mary Poppins is a kid's movie, and when I was a kid, I was whole-heartedly convinced he had an English accent. I didn't really think about it that much.
14puh-lease! she just sounds more and more full of sh*t every quote I read. Is it just me or is her wrist "cast" looking more like an accessory these days?
15She is starting down that Tara Reid path.. She was cute and now she looks used and abused!!!
16Wow. I'm with YummySushi on this one. I'm surprised she knows who Dick Van Dyke is! And I would prob love that bag if it wasn't silver
17I don't like her bag. She is looking better in this

25I'm so sick of LL posts. And then everyone gets on and says the same damn thing as the day before, lol.
"Like MySpace, only more arrogant"
26i still love her hair...
27Dick Van Dyke is a legendary comedian. As if he's remembered solely for a bad accent in a classic film? What a ridiculous thing to say. She is so disrespectful its not even funny.
28
29she looks rough here
30Yeah, whatever. Nice to know that I have fans here hahaha

32meh, when will she go away?
33I never heard of that Dick Van Dyke bad accent thing, but his name would never fly in todays society. Back then, it was normal to call men named Richard "Dick", I just can not imagine that happenning today.
34I liked her in Parent Trap. She did great.
35I don't know how she will do in this one.
She looks like a car wreck.
36why is she worried?? she did GREAT when she was only 11 doing a british accent in her very first movie...where she had to act with herself! she even had to act like an american trying to learn a british accent. I don't think she'll have any problems. as dumb as she is sometimes..she's a great actress.
37Why would anyone want her to play in their movie?
38Shes friggn american and shes such a fag.
arghhhh!
She annoys me so much its not even funny. Go back to your party honey, and get over yourself.
"she's friggen american" huh?! care to explain that?
39Is that a diss?
40Seriously, what's with the trolls lately?! Did they not get the notice? This is a TROLL FREE ZONE
41
42I think mmm meant that in reference to having a British accent
43Haha nah it wasn't a diss.
I meant it as in 'Shes bloody american'
or just like 'Shes american'
Dont worry, there's nothing wrong with american's i was just pointing out that she's american haha :]
44Thanks for pointing that out. I had no idea where she was from...
Now we are all
clear...
