Lindsay Lohan has traded in dancing in Mykonos for…rescuing refugee children?
In a bizarre Instagram Live video, Lindsay filmed herself approaching what she claimed was a Syrian refugee family as they sat on a sidewalk. “Hey everyone, I just want to show you a family that I met. A Syrian refugee family that I’m really worried about. They really need help,” she says.
Lindsay then approaches the mother and her two sons, saying, “You want to come with me? Come with me. I’ll take care of you guys. Do you want to stay in a hotel tonight? Do you want to watch movies? It would be so cool to watch a movie on a TV or a computer.”
The family gets up from the sidewalk and tries to get away from Lindsay, who proceeds to follow them. Lindsay then accuses the parents of trafficking their children. “Look what’s happening, they’re trafficking children. You’re ruining Arabic culture by doing this,” she says.
Lindsay continues following the family—all while live streaming it on Instagram—and says, “I’m with you boys, don’t worry. The whole world is seeing this.”
