Lindsay Lohan placed in 'lockdown'

Lindsay Lohan has reportedly been placed in prison "lockdown" following a hysterical fit.

The actress was put in isolation after other inmates began taunting her about her sexuality, reports The Mirror.

The Mean Girls star allegedly began crying and yelling at wardens at Lynwood Correctional Facility in California when other prisoners began chanting "fire crotch" at her, referencing her relationship with Samantha Ronson.

"Lindsay would lie there shivering all night, crying and trying to cover her face with her hands. Her wailing was keeping everyone awake," one prisoner said.

She added: "She is in with the killers and she has only been let out for hour-long breaks, and during those she was locked down to a table. Today (Friday), Lindsay got put on lockdown.

"She had a hysterical fit, crying and yelling so she got put in isolation."

Lohan is expected to serve 14 or fewer days in jail after being sentenced to 90 days.
