There are a lot of things you could call Lindsay Lohan. Heck, she’s heard ‘em all. But what does co-star Kevin Covais call the once and future tabloid queen? “A sweetheart! Very personable,” Covais said of Lohan, his co-star in “Labor Pains. “I think it’s important that people recognize that. She’s really great.”

“Labor Pains,” in which Lilo stars as an office worker who fakes a pregnancy in order to avoid getting fired, is the actress’s first venture into straight out comedy since, well, probably since “Mean Girls” all the way back in 2004. While that movie was an unqualified success, the intervening years have not been kind to Lohan’s career. Much of that, of course, is nobody’s fault but her own, her admitted drug abuse causing problems on films like “Georgia Rule,” where she was reportedly late for work on several occasions or otherwise not prepared.
