Lindsay Lohan Says ‘Don’t Judge The Book By Its Cover’ In Bizarre Instagram Post
Lindsay Lohan is once again confusing her fans and stirring rumors that she’s converted to Islam with her latest Instagram post. The “Mean Girls” star appears to have known that her new photo would cause a commotion among her followers, so she asked them to not judge her because of this.
On Monday, Lohan took to the photo-sharing site to share a black and white photo of her in a simple dress with her head covered in a white cloth like a hijab. It wasn’t clear if Lohan shared the pic to tease her upcoming fashion line or to send a strong message to the people who keep on judging her.
Just last month, Lohan shared that she was stopped at London’s Heathrow Airport for wearing a hijab. At the time, the actress said that the guard “racially profiled” her, and it was the first time that someone judged her for wearing the headscarf. She also admitted then that it left her feeling intimidated.

In the caption of her latest post, Lohan wrote “don’t judge the book by its cover” both in English and in Arabic. Fans of the 30-year-old Hollywood celeb quickly left her positive comments for her devotion to the Islamic language. One fan wrote: “Wow! You can speak Arabic! Arabic language is the Quran’s language… the greatest language.” Another chimed in: “That’s right Lindsay. Allah is the only judge. I am so proud of you for learning our language.”
Meanwhile, other people seem to be upset by “The Anti-Social Network” host’s new Instagram post. One commented: “I’m not Muslim, but I don’t know what you’re trying to do here. The hijab is a symbol of modesty, and if you can’t respect that you shouldn’t be wearing it.” Another stated: “Well dear Lindsay, do whatever you want but please do not play with one’s cultural or religious codes. Whether you are ‘in’ or wether [sic] you are ‘out.’ It’s disrespectful.”
In early February, Lohan admitted that she’s studying the Quran and the Islam religion. She also confirmed speculations of conversion when she said that she’s in the process of converting. “It’s a process to convert to anything … It’s a beautiful religion and I am a very spiritual person,” she said at the time.
Despite her admission, Lohan’s father, Michael, recently claimed via a now-deleted Facebook post that his daughter is not a Muslim. “My daughter is not of Muslim faith. She was raised Catholic but is Christian,” Lohan’s father said after getting backlash for writing in a previous post that he thinks his daughter has not converted.
