Lindsay Lohan calls father a "loser"

Lindsay Lohan has branded her estranged father Michael a "loser" after he released private recordings of her crying for help.

The Mean Girls star posted comments on Twitter this week striking back at her dad, who she earlier called a "lunatic".

Lohan wrote: "My fathers such a loser & those recordings are from years ago. To release personal things is foul enough, but to edit them... (sic)"

She added: "I used to think ... that he needed the book for dummies on learning how to be a father. Haha-he's needs the book for dummies on HOW TO BE A MAN."

Michael recently said that he is seeking legal responsibility for the 23-year-old actress and suggested that her alleged drug addiction has made her look four times her age.
