Lindsay Lohan posed for Vanity Fair just prior to her incarceration (and days after learning she was going to be serving time) in the clink and she opened up about drugs, alcohol and her douchey dad Michael Lohan [via: USA Today]:
On alcohol addiction:
“If I were the alcoholic everyone says I am, then putting a [scram] bracelet on would have ended me up in detox, in the emergency room, because I would have had to come down from all the things that people say I’m taking and my father says I’m taking — so that says something, because I was fine.”
On drug abuse:
“I’ve never abused prescription drugs. I never have — never in my life. I have no desire to. That’s not who I am. I’ve admitted to the things that I’ve done — to, you know, dabbling in certain things and trying things ’cause I was young and curious and thought it was like, O.K., ’cause other people were doing it and other people put it in front of me. And I see what happened in my life because of it.”
On her father, Michael Lohan, unexpectedly showing up to her probation hearing:
“The worst part of it is you turn around and you see your dad crying and normally you’d be, like, happy that your father’s there. But then he has to go and do an interview right after.”
On when she first moved to Los Angeles:
“It was very go-go-go and I had a lot of responsibility; and I think just the second I didn’t have (structure) anymore — I was 18, 19 — with a ton of money and no one really here to tell me that I couldn’t do certain things … And I see where that’s gotten me now, and I don’t like it.”
Although she says she isn’t making excuses it does seem like she kind of is. Having said that I really do hope Lindsay gets her life together and surrounds herself with people who have her best interests at heart because up until her stay in jail she wasn’t from what it seems.
The magazine hits newsstands September 7. What do you think of the interview excerpt?
