Is Lindsay Lohan Crashing The Super Bowl?
Lindsay Lohan was seen filming an Esurance Super Bowl commercial according to a report by TMZ.com. The U.S. car insurance company was spotted in Long Beach, California. “And with the timing of the filming - just weeks before the Super Bowl - it seems likely that the finished advert is set for a highly sought after spot in the American Football show’s commercial break,” according to Dailymail.co.uk.
As of now, there isn’t an official report from Esurance. Their website and social channels do not provide any information. Lilo, who has 8.7 million followers on Twitter, and 5.2 million Facebook likes, hasn’t stated anything. However, the Internet has been buzzing about the filming of this commercial. Many respectable news outlets such as The Independent have published articles regarding the filming of the commercial. At this time, however, it’s unclear whether the car insurance company will opt for a traditional Super Bowl ad, or follow in the same footsteps as last year. One thing remains clear: a commercial is in the works, and it’s featuring the scandalous Lindsay Lohan.
It’s a bit ironic that a car insurance company would feature a 28-year old who has a history of driving mishaps. She was caught driving drunk in 2007, and was involved in three car accidents in 2012, according to MTV.com. But then again - maybe that’s the kind of attention they are looking for.
And the Lilo jokes begin:

Last year, Esurance secured the first ad spot immediately following the game. The idea behind their commercial, or so they say, was that instead of spending all their dough on a Super Bowl commercial, they would simply give it to one lucky winner. All you had to do was tweet #EsuranceSave30 and you could win $1.5 million. The ad featured John Krasinski as the frontman.
But don’t take our word for it. Watch it yourself:
The result (of course!) was that #EsuranceSave30 was trending like crazy on Twitter!
Not sure if it’s a hint, or if we’re analyzing the situation way too in depth, but Esurance has even created a Pinterest board, aptly titled, “Esurance Fantasy Tailgate”. Could this be in preparation for the Big Game?
In the words of our good friend, Pitbull, “I got it locked up like Lindsay Lohan”. Yes you do, Pitbull. Yes, you do.
