Lindsay Lohan is young and can handle it – and has very well, thank you – but Brandon Davis’s mouth has had repercussions no one predicted. Because of his X-rated street rant against Lohan (the Firecrotch Tape is this generation’s Zapruder Film and now one of the internet’s most-downloaded videos), his socialite grandmother, Barbara (not exactly a Mother Teresa herself), has noticed a paucity of RSVPs this year to her annual Carousel Ball fundraiser for juvenile diabetes. Apparently the social set wants to avoid at all costs getting near the controversy in that way the social set has. So 70something Barbara, incredulously, is telling friends that Brandon and Lindsay have kissed and made up, had dinner the other night, and are currently dating. That’s right, currently dating. Lohan’s spokesman, of course, says nothing is further from the truth.

[C]hief Lohan-dler Leslie Sloane responds that Davis has gone daffy: “It is unfortunate that Barbara Davis is desperate enough to make up a lie about Lindsay dating her grandson. Lindsay took the high road and accepted Brandon’s apology last week, but they are not dating and they did not go to dinner together. Lindsay is dating several men who live overseas.”

And we’re wondering, Who says “overseas” anymore? Are Lohan’s gentleman callers serving in World War II?
