Lindsay Lohan Stars In R.E.M. Video Directed By James Franco

Her personal life is a bit of a mess right now, and even though it has affected her career, Lindsay Lohan is still pulling in work. The 26-year-old will show up on your TV screens this upcoming Sunday for Lifetime’s Liz & Dick, she’s been working on movies we hear, and she’s also hitting up the music scene…this time starring in an R.E.M. music video.

The video, directed by James Franco, is for the band’s song “Blue” and also stars the photographer Terry Richardson who is known for his bold and provocative photos as well as his creepy demeanor. Remember, he’s the one that directed Kate Upton’s sexy/silly Cat Daddy dance video?

You can see the video for yourself below. After watching it a couple times I came to the conclusion that I like the song, though it has a depressing undertone. It’s definitely darker with Lohan in it given her life and how it’s played out the last several years. The video itself is okay. It’s a bit shaky on the camera work, but I appreciate the effort.

What do you guys think? Love it or hate it?
