- A nasty feud has sparked over Lindsay’s hefty pay cheque and sources say Dannii is less than impressed the Mean Girls actress was picked for the job.
“Dannii wasn’t told Lindsay would be her co-judge and she’s being paid twice what Dannii is making,” a source told New Idea.
“Not only that, Lindsay is bringing an entourage of three. This includes her very expensive LA hair and makeup stylist, who Lindsay is demanding fly business, while Dannii gets two first class tickets.”
The Channel 10 show announced Dannii and Lindsay would be judging alongside radio starlet Jackie O and comedian Dave Hughes.
US-born Lindsay will be the only non-Aussie on the panel – something Dannii is reportedly livid about. “She is saying: ‘How will Lindsay Lohan know how to recognise an Aussie masked singing voice? The whole premise of the show is trying to pick the masked Aussie singer!’ ” the source said.
“Dave Hughes and Jackie O think it is hysterical, as Lindsay dramas will deliver to their top-rating radio shows.”
The bitter pay dispute has also allegedly resulted in Dannii’s management sending a stern letter to Channel 10 management to demand pay parity. “If Lindsay turns up? It’s on,” the source adds.
