The album featured Lohan’s take on classic Christmas tunes such as “Winter Wonderland” and “Silent Night” and even featured a guest appearance from older sister Lindsay on the appropriately titled tune, “Lohan Holiday.”
Starring In A Reality Show
Many came to know Aliana after the short-lived 2008 docuseries Living Lohan aired on E!, which documented the day to day lives of Lohan’s family — including her younger brother Dakota, grandmother Nana, and mother Dina Lohan who also served as Aliana’s manager. Music producer Jeremy Greene also appeared on the series looking to launch Aliana’s career and her debut record.

Lohan starred as popular it girl Traci Walker in the 2008 Disney Channel film Mostly Ghostly, based on the book Who Let the Ghosts Out? by R. L. Stine. The role showcased her skills outside of music.
