Lindsay Lohan has a long career ahead of her - if telling complete lies with a straight face can be considered a career. Lindsay released another mouthy tell-all interview - and it might be of interest, if any portion of it contained the truth. Details, via Ok! Magazine: She told us: "Well, the second two times I went into rehab, to be honest with you, I had to go because it was a court thing. It was an obligation. I had to do it to stay out of getting any jail time. And I took responsibility for that. And it was like a vacation.
"I love meeting new people and seeing what they've been experiencing. That's what I go through in different characters. And I met some great people. It was a nice time to shut everyone off for a while because there was so much noise. There were some things I had done... I had put myself in situations which I probably should have thought through. But it was a positive experience. When I was there it was like, there's a lot of people that I know who should really be here now, not for drugs or alcohol abuse - just to learn about life. The world is nuts."
And Lindsay says that despite her alcohol abuse in the past, she still occasionally has a celebratory drink, admitting: "It depends on the situation. I mean, yes..." But the 23-year-old says her drinking was never as bad as it was made out to be.
When we asked if she's careful around booze, she added: "Yeah. I mean, mind you, my drinking was never more than... I mean, here's the thing, I have friends who would get so wasted at college. I have never been one to get drunk and act like that, that's not who I am.
"When I was in school I didn't drink, or even try one, until I was probably 18. Literally, and I'm not lying about that. I'm just some sort of a target for some reason! I'm made out all the time to be the bad guy!"
Lindsay says time in rehab helped her to gain control of her life - and she's now penning a book about her experiences. She told us: "I write a lot and it's very therapeutic for me because then I can see what's happening on paper. I've started writing a book. It's going to take a while, all my life experiences. I started writing it a year ago. There's a lot to put down, you know?"]
Well, if Lindsay's good for one thing these days, it's a laugh. There's certainly no documentation of her drinking - it just happens so damn infrequently. Yeah. Well, at least she's in good stead if she decides to become a writer. She and Ernest Hemingway have much in common.
