I have hope for all of them. I think Britney is the one with a gift. LL can act but so as many other actresses out there who are working their ass off to get on screen. LL can kiss her career goodbye if she continues to mess it up like this. Nicole..well nicole is a dumb rich kid and so as paris. These two can't act, sing or read. They should open a boutique in santa monica or something instead of trying to sing and act. Blah!

I disagree with divalicious about Britney. She is extrememly untalented and unless God reaches down from Heaven and blesses her with the ability to sing, she is done as far as her career goes.

Paris and Nicole are simply rich kids that grew up without any parental guidance or rules to keep them out of trouble.

Lindsay plays the victim too much and I think people will soon stop hiring her.

So... my answer is NO hope for any of them, but I am certainly being entertained by their screw-ups.

I guess I have messed up before and I know what it feels like when life is really sh*t fab4

It's hard to say because i don't know them personally but i'd really like to think that in spite of all the careless, stupid,& colosssal choices these girls are making lately, that there's still some hope left and they can turn their lives around for the better......

No way, none of them have a chance.

Well Brit wrote her own songs (some of it). I thought that was good. Her voice is better than J LO to me, lol. She's much better than jennifer love hewitt..I think that poor girl was just adequate. Or Mini driver..she didn't sound very good.

I think all of them will be messed up for the rest of their lives on some level. Some may be more drastic than others... I can't see Brit ever coming back and having the respect and admiration she once had. However, I can sorta see LL doing a Drew Barrymore turnaround in a few years once her head's on straight.

Brit doesn't give a sh*t if she doesn't come back. I truly believe in that. She is like alec baldwin. he doesn't give a sh*t if he doesn't act again. They have money, they have a house and they have kids they want to be with. The rest of the world can go away.

Oddly, I chose Paris. She is obviously annoying, but she is the only one that seems like she has the cunning to keep it together long term.

Paris has thick skin but the world doesn't people like that. She's popular with young girls (teenagers) but when these girls grow up she's yesterday..

Nicole would be the only one I'd hold out hope for at this point. She's appears to be healthier (note: appears, I have no proof) and is keeping to herself rather than partying and driving around drunk and high.

Whether that will last, I have no idea. But at this point she seems the most promising.

I think they're all pretty hopeless, but Paris (shockingly!) has the best chance of a turnaround. Bratney and LiLo don't even realize that they have problems, they just think everyone is against them. Any issues, they treat as public image concerns, not real personal problems.

Also, Paris could just disappear and live on the family money if she chose; Spears and Lohan have to make a living somehow. Once they get past the "young and cute" stage--which is rapidly approaching--they're in trouble.

Especially Lohan, as an actress her work ethic and personal problems could affect any production she's on, and that could get expensive for the backers.

...at least britney has never been arrested for driving under the influence?

britney and lindsey make me sad...they're talented girls who need some serious help. i hope they can get it and pull a drew barrymore.

I still have hope for them but not because I think they've had more bumps than normal people.

Yeah I'm with you on that one books and shoes.. I totally aggree with that!!! I think you're the only in pop i've seen who has shared this view with me! I think we all have enormous amount of struggle to cope with and we do cope (some are better than others), we do cope and we are so in control of how we want to cope. I think celebs and us share the same problems totally!

I think we turn things around. We all do..

They all just seem to go to treatment and not really do the actual treatment. They are only there for the photo opp. It would be great for all of them to get better, I just don't see it happening.

I have no hope or sympathy 4 any of them. i want to become an actress but my mom wont let me because she thinks people like those girls are going to be a bad influance on me. they need to get lives i meen they are taking their careers for granted i meen they have millons great careers and they are just throwing it away and are taking the spotlight off people who can really act and sing and who actually do something with their lives!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am so sick of hearing about each of them!

that makes the two of us

You know what I think? I think one of these ladies is going to have to pass away in orderfr the others to really get what's going on. Honestly. Rehab isn't working, jail isn't working. None of these girls are taking anything seriously, so unfortunately...I think that's what's going to happen sooner or later.

All of them are doomed to being stupid slutty girls for the rest of there lives. It's what they get for going around all those years never learning how to read.

the only ones i do not feel bad for is nicole and paris.

But i really feel for Lindsay because she is a hard working actress and in my opinion i feel she's a great actress. It's just sad she doesn't have the right guidance mean her mom wants to be her best friend and live this "Hollywood" lifestyle through her daughter. That can't be healthy for her. I hope she gets everything straighten out for herself.

Britney- i think she's a great entertainer and i'm really rooting for her. I think she needs some serious therapy sessions though.

I'm kind of holding out hope for Britney because of her kids, but I don't think any of them are going to have any major lifestyle changes any time soon.

addiction before 20 is nearly impossible to overcome (1% chance of recovery) so for linds and nicole no. there is to much access to money and drugs combined with too little impluse control for those 2. paris is full of herself and britney looks to have some type of mental health issues that include addiction to fame.

I have hope for Paris. NONE for Lindsay.

I'm rooting for Nicole, she's so cute.

If any, I'd choose Brit. I'm going to eat my words, arn't I?....

All are a bunch of rich little brats who didnt develop any copeing skills while growing up. Brit needs psych meds, paris needs to be boycotted, Lindsay needs to STAY in re-hab (court ordered) and nicole needs to give birth in jail for a real reality check. This will never happen.

The problem isn't that I don't have hope for them, it's that I don't have any sympathy for them.

Everytime I think one of them has cleaned up, they go and do something crazy.

I don't know!
I'd really like to hope but when I hoped Paris and Lindsay will change well uhhhmm they really haven't!

I have hope for Lindsay and Nicole.

Lindsay's at a point where she can be the next Drew Barrymore, or the Next Corey Haim/Feldman haha, or maybe even the next Marilyn Monroe.

If she gets her act together, when she's out of jail/rehab, if she goes into independant films, she has a chance. No big films are going to cast her, she's too much of a liability, but if she can prove herself as a serious actress in the independant film industry, she can make the transition back into the mainstream, and maybe even win an Oscar someday.

Or, she could continue to be useless, get cleaned up in about 10 years, and have a reality show.

Or she could continue to be a screwup, die, and sadly, be more famous than she ever was when she was alive.

I think Nicole really has turned things around and is on the path to being healthy though.

Paris and Britney should just leave the country and use their money to hide for the rest of their lives.

*sigh* gave up.

I hope they all get their acts together.

I hope Nicole's pregnancy will shoot her back to reality but maybe not.

It's all just really sad. As the saying goes- all the money in the workd can't buy happiness!! They're all so sensationalized!!!

I'm rooting for Nicole. Joel SEEMS pretty solid (who knows). And I think she's really funny.

Maybe rehab #3 will do something for Lindsay, but... she's still ridiculous.

Paris? I dont think she'll go to jail again but I also dont think she'll ever be a contributing member of society either. My bet is she'll become a Weathered Cougar.

Britney? I could care less. Its been nothing but downhill since she and J.T. ended. Everyone needs to let go of Brit-Brit.

i'm guessing that nicole richie got the highest single percentage of getting better simply because she recently got knocked up... well, i feel that's wishful thinking.

just look at britney spears, she's had two kids recently and seems more screwed up than ever.

it's silly to think that having a child can suddenly fix problems.

I think that Nicole Ritchie will be a changed person after her baby comes. Paris Hilton says that her jail stint chnaged her life but it all seems unbelievable to me. Britney Spears is gone. I used to love her but now she's just a whack job. I also have a soft spot for Linds. I have very high hopes that she'll see the light.

they are all messed up, and we need to leave them alone so girls that look up to them (for reasons i can't understand) don't repeat their mistakes!!

Never give up!

none, i am so sick of people obsessing with these LOW LIVES. what's wrong wih the world, why are we not discusssing bigger, more importanrt issues such as starving people in Africa. Instead we focus on poor, starving nicole, who can actually afford food.Big deal. If she dies, which i hope she doesn't, people are going to be devastated. But when thousands of people die from the same thing, no one cares. How sad.
