Lohan reveals Beatles death threats

Actress Lindsay Lohan has admitted that she had to call on Yoko Ono for support after she received death threats after accepting a role in a film about former Beatles rocker John Lennon's killer. The 'Mean Girls' star was reportedly advised by family and friends to turn down the role in the controversial film 'Chapter 27', in which she plays a woman who befriends Lennon murderer Mark David Chapman. However, after agreeing to take on the role she soon confronted the incumbent dangers and called on Lennon's widow Ono for support. She said: "It's a very touchy subject and no one wanted me to do the movie because John Lennon is a legend. I was actually nervous going into it because I did get death threats. "But I love my character in the movie and she is such a genuine fan of Yoko and John. She is like the Hitchcock blonde.
"I actually sat down with Yoko Ono a couple of times to talk to her about it because I wanted to get the 'OK' from her... She was so sweet.
"She gave me the confidence I needed. The things that she's done are wonderful."
