Lindsay Lohan turned herself in to begin serving her 90-day jail sentence this week. A calm Lohan appeared in a Los Angeles courtroom with her original lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, after briefly hiring and then firing former O.J. Simpson attorney Robert Shapiro as part of a last-ditch attempt to avoid serving the time. Experts say Lohan will likely only spend one-quarter of her sentence, roughly 23 days, behind bars. “The only ‘bookings’ that I’m familiar with are Disney films,” the actress joked on Twitter just prior to surrendering. “Never thought that I’d be ‘booking’ into jail … eeeks.”
