Ali Lohan admits to being bullied

Ali Lohan, the younger sister of troubled actress Lindsay, has revealed that two of her former classmates bullied her by putting up abusive videos on YouTube.

The aspiring singer and actress told People how "disgusting" she thought the clips were: "They used disgusting words. Like if my mum ever heard me say that stuff, I'd be grounded for life!... They're disgusting kids. I got really aggravated."

Though the children were suspended, Lohan is now happy being home-schooled, in part to help accommodate her work schedule.

"You learn so much more - it's just hard to focus when girls are giving you problems," she said. "No one's talking about you behind your back. It's definitely easier."

Lohan insisted that she didn't think her big sister Lindsay's success was the reason she was picked on.

"I don't think it's just because of my sister and who she is," she said. "I think it happens to all the other girls out there, because girls are just mean. It doesn't happen with guys. When I asked [my little brother] Cody, he was like, 'No, guys don't care!'"
