I turned around right before taking this picture because I heard the gravelly voice of what I believed what a salty, old sailor asking me, “Hey, sweetie. Gotta light?” Just kidding–y’all know I don’t actually take these pix more than half the time, but seriously, I have a feeling it went down like that. And speaking of our girl Linds, Tony Allen, who had been rumored to be romantically involved with La Lohan is giving us all the whole “we’re just friends” speech. Allen, who spent forty-five days of rehab at the Cirque Lodge where Lindsay is currently receiving treatment in Utah, said of the starlet, “She is my friend.” Additionally, he told People magazine that she seems to be making progress on her road to recovery.

“There’s no cycle of guilt or shame anymore,” says Allen. “She wants to give back to her fans and the people that care about her, and she wants to be able to share her many talents,” says Allen. “She’s very focused on recovery right now.”

Tony, an aspiring musician, also chatted with Extra about the status of his friendship with Lindsay last week . Hmm. Aspiring musician you say? How…unique.
