lindsay lohan confesses she's seeing samantha ronson


LiLo confirms cuddle-bunnies with Sam; plus, are Miley and Billy Ray in need of an attitude adjustment, and are Drew and Kirsten avoiding each other?
In recent months, Lindsay Lohan has grown more and more comfortable expressing her obvious affection for Samantha Ronson, from caught-on-camera lip-on-lip action to schmoopy MySpace messages to the flashing of a heart-shaped ring on her all-important finger.
But the starlet, 22, has sidestepped media questions about her relationship status with her joined-at-the-hip DJ inamorata, 31, choosing instead to offer some variation of what she said in a recent sit-down with Marie Claire: "Um, people can think what they want. I'm really happy, and that's all that matters."
But during a chat Monday night with the syndicated radio show "Loveline," Lindsay casually confirmed what everyone already knew, a move that came just ahead of Clay Aiken's similarly duh-inspiring announcement on the cover of this week's People. The call began with Ronson talking about the plane crash involving Travis Barker and DJ AM, but the conversation took a turn when she handed the phone over to Lohan, who pointed out how the accident made her realize how important it is to "treasure each moment."
That provided an opening for show co-host Stryker, who asked how long she and "your girl" Samantha "have been going out ... like two years? One year? Five months? Two months?"
After a knowing giggle, Lindsay answered, "A very long time."
Stryker then wished them well, opining, "I hope you guys stay together. You're a very lovely looking couple," which elicited a bubbly "thank you very much" from the actress.
Alas, Lohan's public confirmation will likely prompt yet another tirade from her attention-addicted, load-of-shut-up-needing dad Michael, who seems to have spent a good portion of his weekend crafting a vicious personal attack against the person his issues-dealing daughter has chosen to share her life with.
"There is a lot more to Samantha than meets the eye! Not that what we see is soooo pleasing anyway!" he spewed in a hate-filled e-mail to photo agency X17. "I mean, what's with this ... 'person'??? Look at the way she 'dresses'? Once more, she uses her middle finger more than she uses words! Personally, I think she is dark, hideous and a disgusting representation of humanity!"
And who's not "dark, hideous and a disgusting representation of humanity," according to Papa Lohan, who Lindsay labeled "a public embarrassment and a bully to my family, my co-workers, my friends, and a girl that means the world to me" in a recent MySpace posting?
Porn-meister Joe Francis, who made his fortune off the alcohol-lowered inhibitions of college girls and once gleefully humiliated a female reporter from the Los Angeles Times assigned to interview him.
Joe, declares Michael, "is a good person."
The born-again jailbird is also convinced that "while I haven't exposed [Samantha], I know that God will. He will weed her out of Lindsay's life and at that time, you will finally see Lindsay back in the place in her heart and mind that God wants and she belongs."
All together, now: "Shut up, Michael."
Lindsay, however, opted for a more in-depth response to her dad's venom. "My father obviously needs to be on medication to control his moods. He is out of line and his words show how much anger he has, and it's dangerous and scary as it reminds me of how he treated my mother and I my whole childhood," she tells the New York Post. "He needs to be stopped. This is yet another reason why we aren't speaking."
She says she's currently "in a great place in life. I have overcome a lot and have been able to learn how to enjoy and appreciate my life in every way possible. I'm proud of myself for being able to make a change in the past year and a half. My past is behind me, and that's final. There's nothing more to be said."
Except this: "All the false accusations that people try to make are simply because there's no story when things are calm and good. But they might as well let it go because their lies don't affect me anymore. Samantha is not evil, I care for her very much and she's a wonderful girl. She loves me, as I do her."
