Lindsay Lohan still hasn’t found Islam. Or Kettering
She’s been seen in a headscarf, snapped with a copy of the Qur’an and has cleared out her Instagram account. None of these things are getting her any closer to Northamptonshire It was the philosophising Greek Earth-measurer Eratosthenes who said: “Once I have a kid I’m not going to be on Instagram. You know, I’ll probably delete my Instagram and just … I don’t know, live life.” Or was it Kylie Jenner? The details are unimportant but the message is clear: delete Instagram and live life. Instagram and life-living are mutually exclusive. It is not possible to prove you are in close proximity to an avocado while also being wholly existent. So what are we to make of Lindsay Lohan deciding this week to clear out her Instagram account, which at the time of writing has 5.8 million followers, precisely zero posts, and a bio that consists of no more than “Alaikum salam” with a hand emoji? Is Lindsay now living life with an intensity that she was not before? Is it now more meaningful, or more joyful, and, in either case, is she doing loads of congas? A more important issue, as many onlookers immediately decided in light of the “Alaikum salam” bio, is she doing all that because she has converted to Islam? Continue reading...
