Rehab Resident Rides Lindsay Lohan’s Coattails

It’s hard enough for Lindsay Lohan to clean up her life in rehab. But to have attention-hungry residents all up on her must be unbearable.

Case in point: Dori Cooperman. Cooperman has been in every picture that the paparazzi have snapped of Lohan. She even extended her own stint in rehab in order to stay close to the Georgia Rule actress.

The reason for all the craziness? Cooperman’s friends claim, “She loves the attention.” The increased media attention has apparently made Cooperman want to be closer and closer to Lohan.

And all the stalking will pay off in the new issue of Us Weekly. They’ll be running a new set of pictures in their next issue, and Dori will be front and center. “Dori will be just thrilled to see her face in Us Weekly,” a source told press. “Lindsay’s been warned about her. Right now, she’s being really nice and friendly to everybody, but everyone knows what Dori’s agenda is.”

It’s hard to believe that in the midst of healing and recovery there is such rude and self-seeking behavior.

Enjoy the photos of Lindsay (and Dori) enjoying the Fourth of July holiday on the beaches of Malibu.
