Dina Lohan has Carvel card taken away and then calls cops
In other slap-on-the-wrist news, ice cream purveyor Carvel has rescinded an unlimited freebie card it had given to Lohan after her family—particularly mom Dina—supposedly abused the frozen-treat privilege.
"These cards were issued in the celebrity's name and require the card holder to be present at the time of use," Carvel said in a statement. "Many celebrities have enjoyed their cards at our Carvel Ice Cream shoppes and have shared their excitement with being included in the celebration.
"Unfortunately, the Lohan family has been abusing the card. While the card was issued in Lindsay's name only, her extended family has repeatedly used the card without her present. At first, we graciously honored their requests while explaining that the Black Card was not a carte blanc for unlimited Carvel Ice Cream for the extended Lohan family and friends. After more than six months of numerous and large orders for ice cream, we finally had to cut off the card and take it back.
"Dina Lohan reacted badly and called the police to have her card returned. The police responded and did return the card to Dina with instructions not to use it again. This is an unfortunate situation where certain people feel entitled to use a celebrity's name for their own purposes. We regret that the Lohan family is upset and hope this matter is put behind us quickly."
That's OK. We're cracking up, too.
