After taking off her clothes for a Marilyn Monroe type magazine spread, Lindsay Lohan is now baring her soul by sharing her feelings with Paper magazine. She talks about partying, getting arrested and going to rehab in an article that quotes Popeye with the heading, “I Am What I Am”.
Linds says she had tough times in her personal life and drinking and drugs helped run away from the “go-go-go” of being an actress. “I had a lot going on in my life and that was a way of hiding from it. I hadn’t seen my dad; I had a lot of work stress ’cause I was constantly working and never took time to stop.” She was struck with reality at rehab and she said, “There’s not really much else to do when you’re sitting in a treatment center. It’s like, ‘Why am I here? Let’s think.’”
Lohan is searching for a “great script, a great role.” She knows a lot of studios might hesitate to take a risk on her but there may be an opportunity to play Clara Bow, the silent movie star who was known for her racy lifestyle and becoming mentally ill in her later years. Lindsay added, “”I definitely relate to a lot of the things that she went through. Not with her family, but the trials and tribulations of Hollywood, to an extent.” We’ll see if Lohan winds up doing any better than Bow…
