Lindsay Lohan admits being irresponsible; career is far from over (Vanity Fair October 2010 issue)

Actress Lindsay Lohan, who is now enjoying her freedom after being jailed plus her short stint in rehab, gave an interesting interview which is now featured on Vanity Fair Magazine's October 2010 issue.

Her interview took place one week before going to jail. In the interview, Lindsay admitted her mistakes, claims that her father Michael Lohan is the reason of all her traumas and many more...

Some of the highlights from Lindsay Lohan’s interview:

Lindsay denying being alcoholic: “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.”

Lindsay on her estranged father, Michael Lohan: “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. I think my biggest focus for myself is learning how to continue to get through the trauma that my father has caused in my life.”

Lindsay adamantly denies rumors of 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.”

Lindsay on her career being far from over: “I don’t care what anyone says. I know that I’m a damn good actress. … And I know that in my past I was young and irresponsible—but that’s what growing up is. You learn from your mistakes.”

Lindsay blames her troubles, in part, on hanging out with the wrong crowd: “So many people around me would say they cared for the wrong reasons. A lot of people were pulling from me, taking from me and not giving. I had a lot of people that were there for me for, you know, the party.”
