Aug. 4, 2008 — -- They grow up so fast.

Only a few years ago, Aliana "Ali" Lohan was trotting onto the sets of her big sister's movies and cuing the cuteness for Toys "R" Us and Little Caesars Pizza commercials.

Now, the 14-year-old is baring her cleavage, auditioning for pornography directors and allegedly causing scenes at parties -- all in one week.

First, the littlest Lohan was spotted wearing a face full of makeup, a low-cut top and what was probably the result of a well-built push-up bra. Then E! online reported that Ali and her mother and reality TV partner-in-crime, Dina, started a skirmish when asked to change tables at the "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2" premiere party, causing them to leave.

On Wednesday, Us Weekly magazine reported that in the season finale of "Living Lohan," the 14-year-old auditioned for a horror movie directed by Peter Davy, not knowing that his claim to fame includes adult flicks such as "Voodoo Lust" and "Dreams in the Forbidden Zone."

Ali's never denied her love for the limelight.

"I grew up watching Lindsay, and it made me want to do what she does," she told Teen Vogue earlier this year. "Just the whole vibe. Being there, being on camera, or onstage, with everybody listening to you ... It's so cool when people look up to you.

"I want it so bad," she said of fame. "So bad you don't even know. And now, it's actually happening. I've already been asked for my autograph, and it's just a really good feeling to have."

But it seems her hunger for fame may be leading her astray. Is it only a matter of time before Ali's getting busted for DUIs and checking into rehab like Lindsay?

"Train wreck seems to be the route to fame in that family," said a celebrity PR executive, who spoke candidly on the condition that his name not be used. "Ali's following in her big sister's footsteps."

It's no surprise. Younger siblings look up to older siblings, especially when that older sibling is making millions of dollars and incites fan frenzies and paparazzi mobs when she goes out in public. But Ali didn't start out on her big sister's path to stardom. Instead of movies, she made her first full-scale foray into Hollywood with an E! reality show that chronicles her efforts to make a name for herself in the entertainment industry.
