Lindsay Lohan is not trying to date Vladimir Putin, despite a report that’s as late and wrong as it is ridiculous. Gossip Cop can again set the record straight.

In this week’s issue, the National Enquirer is running this ridiculous headline: “LiLo Fires Kremlin Krotch Shots At Prime Stud ‘Bad Vlad’ Putin!” The language in the accompanying story, along with the allegations themselves, is only more absurd. According to the supermarket tabloid, “LiLo’s suddenly aimed her fiery eyes at ‘Kremlin Krotch,’ telling pals she’s gonna bed AND wed notorious Soviet strongman Vladimir Putin — then be officially crowned ‘Princess Pootie-Tang of Russia.'”

“Lindsay got her looney idea of pegging Putin after negotiating a TV interview with a Russian network,” a so-called “spy” says. “Carefully plotting her secret plan to bed the Prime Stud, she demanded a year-long visa AND a personal, private meeting to launch a lingering seduction.”

The piece only gets more outrageous from there. The supposed source goes on to say, “But Putin pooh-poohed LiLo’s scheme! The Russian ruler’s got spies EVERYWHERE… and chuckled ‘NYET!’ to hooking up with the notorious celeb. Adding that Lindsay’s ‘not his type,’ he insisted — jokingly… or maybe not — that he wouldn’t mind dropping a ruble or two on a fling with J. Lo!”

Please. Nothing about this tale is believable. And Gossip Cop can reveal what’s actually going on. Last month, reports claimed the actress wanted to meet the politician. That led Star to jump to the conclusion that that meant Lohan wants to date Putin.

Now sister publication the National Enquirer is running its own version of the same debunked story. But it’s not any more true now than it was then. Lohan was never intending to become a Russian princess by marrying Putin, and she was never romantically rejected by him. It’s all made-up nonsense courtesy of unscrupulous, sensational tabloids.
