Heard the awfully depressing news? Ex-AA meeting attendee Lindsay Lohan has joined forces with Svedka vodka who have agreed to sponsor her upcoming 21st birthday bash in Las Vegas and pay her hundreds of thousands of dollars.
It's part of a deal that could net the star up to seven figures for the July 2-3 celebration.
Other partners include Pure nightclub, Caesars Palace (which is providing a "specially designed" suite) and the Social House restaurant at Treasure Island.
In the pay-to-play world of celebrity events, Vegas nightclubs alone have been known to offer up to $400,000 to land a top name.
It's always nice to see alcohol brands and the drinkers they've left in shambles sitting down and planning ways to make money together. Call it a booze-booze situation!
In related news, Isaiah Washington's birthday is being sponsored by www.godhatesfags.com, and the Marlboro Man's funeral is being sponsored by lung cancer.

GREAT! That is just what Lins needs! She was sober for what, approx. two whole days?! Maybe she will get drunk enough on her birthday where she will realize she needs to sober up!
Or maybe she'll get alcohol poisoning and die. It could really go either way with her.
maybe she'll get alcohol poisening and NOT die.. thats how i learned… ofcourse I wasnt a rich kid addicted to coke… i was a broke college kid who liked shots and beer pong… same diff really.
I am not one to wish death upon anyone, no matter how LAME they act in public while under the influence, just sobriety! Congrats, April! Your story sounds SIMILAR to mine :)
This news just moved her up a notch on my celebrity dead pool.
I can see it now, the celeb sponsor opportunity could be endless:
Britney's comeback is being sponsored by McDonalds, KFC and Walmart.
Paris could be sponsored by the Church of Latter Day Saints and a nice bail bondsman.
Whatev, I think that Valtrex would throw in a couple million as well…
I wonder who her mom had to blow to get her this deal?
