Think about it, similar age, similar look, teen film success, both can sing, both kinda pretty in a girl next door way.
Only difference is that Lindsay screwed herself bad with drugs and plastic surgery and now looks like the poor poor poor mans version of her once self.
Step in Emma, clean, healthy and more pure lifestyle is now the acclaimed actress Lindsay could have been.
It's no coincidence that once Lindsay career started to go downhill, Emma's took off.
If Lindsay never turned into the party girl, she would have had all those films that went to Emma.

They had very different backgrounds however.

I believe Lindsay became and actress as a child due to her parents wishes. I did see at one point that her little sister and mum had a reality tv show which makes me believe that she was using Lindsay to get herself fame and attention. Also when she was in her late teens her parents seemingly had a very nasty divorce. So I'm not too surprised she turned out as she did lacking the proper support from her family.

Emma Stone on the otherhand was the daughter of a CEO of a company in Phoenix, and had a lot of theatre experience as child then decided she wanted to move to Hollywood herself at 11 and convinced her mother to move to an apartment with her in Hollywood as a young teenager whilst being homeschooled so that she could audition during the weekdays. Her family gave her a lot of support and clearly didn't have to worry about any financial issues.
