Between 1996 and 1997, Lindsay Lohan played the role of Alexandra ("Alli") Fowler on a soap called Another World.
According to this extremely reliable Angelfire webpage, Alli Fowler is an illegitimate child...
She was delivered by a doctor in a hospital birth. (This is important, apparently.)
She also goes to boarding school in Europe and has a crush on Jake McKinnon.
Alli also had a turtle called Buster 2 or Busterina. She had previously owned another turtle just named Buster, but that one died while in the care of Jake McKinnon. Ugh, we hate Jake now.
Here's a quick scene featuring Lindsay on Another World:
And here's a short on Lindsay/Alli Fowler that will give you a better idea of the show. Lindsay: You're ridiculously cute as a soap opera kid.
