Rumors (Lindsay Lohan song)
"Rumors" is a song by American actress and singer-songwriter Lindsay Lohan, taken from her debut studio album, ''Speak'' (2004). Originally titled "Just What It Is", the song was written and produced by Cory Rooney, while additional writing was done by Lohan, Taryll Jackson, and TJ Jackson. It was released as Lohan's debut single and lead single from the "Speak" on September 21, 2004, through Casablanca Records. The song's lyrics allude to the constant paparazzi and media backlash regarding Lohan. Music critics reviews were mixed; with statements like "infectious" or "unnecessary".
"Rumors" achieved moderate commercial success worldwide, reaching top thirty positions in Australia, Austria, Germany and Switzerland. In the United States, the song peaked at number six on ''Billboard''s Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles, but was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) for shipping over 500,000 units of the single. The music video directed by Jake Nava featured Lohan attending a club, playing around with the paparazzi. The video was nominated for Best Pop Video at the 2005 MTV Video Music Awards and reached the top position on MTV's ''Total Request Live''. In 2014 Billboard ranked the song in its "Top 50 Forgotten Gems From the Now! Series", which list songs from the series that were underrated at the time of their release.〔http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop-shop/6077575/now-thats-what-i-call-music-50-forgotten-gems?page=0%2C1〕

I'm going to do it my way/ Take this for just what it is." Spence D. of IGN noted that the singer's vocals are "driven by snarls, breathy croons, and emotionally restrained angst,"〔 while John Murphy of musicOMH considered it "a feisty dance anthem with intelligent lyrics attacking the paparazzi and press in general."〔
