Lindsay Lohan told Disney CEO to pay her ‘double’ for dual ‘Parent Trap’ roles â at age 12
Double trouble.
Lindsay Lohan said she told former Disney CEO Michael Eisner to pay her “double” for playing two roles on “Parent Trap” when she was only 12.
During an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” Wednesday night, Lohan recalled when Eisner, 82, asked her where her twin sister was at the premiere of the classic 1998 film.
“‘Where’s your twin?’” she said he asked.
“I was so young, I don’t even know how I thought to say this but I’ll never forget what I said,” Lohan. 38, added.
“I said, ‘Well, you should have paid me double ’cause I don’t have one.’”
Host Andy Cohen quipped, “This is the daughter of Dina Lohan.”
In the “Parent Trap,” Lohan played long-lost 11-year-old twin sisters, Hallie and Annie Parker, who found out about each other while attending a summer camp after being separated at birth.
The girls, who each lived with one of their parents in London and Napa Valley, Calif., following a divorce, decided to switch lives and after camp ended so they could see what the other parent was like.
The Nancy Meyers-directed film has become a fan-favorite among many and raked in more than $92 million at the box office.
In 2020, Lohan and her “Parent Trap” co-stars, Dennis Quaid, Elaine Hendrix, Lisa Ann Walter and Simon Kunz, reunited for a special on Katie Couric’s Instagram that raised funds for World Central Kitchen.
The “Mean Girls” star shared how she mastered playing two roles.
“I feel like, and I don’t know if this goes for all actors, but once you put a wig on someone, you feel different,” Lohan said.
“You’re stepping out of your comfort zone and you kind of become the other character. I feel like people treated me differently when I was Annie, because Annie was so much nicer and Hallie was just kind of like me.”
The cast also paid tribute to the late Natasha Richardson — who played the twins’ mom, Elizabeth James, in the film. Richardson died in 2009 after suffering a traumatic brain injury while skiing.
“Natasha had such an elegance and grace, and she was so maternal to me,” Lohan said.
