ONE LATE NIGHT ON THE TOUR BUS, LINDSAY AND BENATAR SAT
TOGETHER AND DISCUSSED THIS PATH. WITHOUT HESITATION, BENATAR
SAID, "WELL WHY DON'T YOU MOVE OUT TO LA AND YOU CAN WORK AS
MY PERSONAL ASSISTANT WHILE YOU BUILD THAT PART OF YOUR CAREER?"
AND SO, SHE DID JUST THAT. LINDSAY LEFT BEHIND EVERYONE AND
EVERYTHING SHE HAD EVER KNOWN IN HER SMALL HOMETOWN OF
NEW HOPE, PENNSYLVANIA AND MOVED 3,000 MILES AWAY TO LIVE, WRITE, NETWORK AND OF COURSE, WORK AS PAT BENATAR'S PERSONAL ASSISTANT.
