Lindsay Lohan’s First Post-Rehab Interview

Mandy @ Gone Hollywood | Tuesday, October 9, 2007

Lindsay Lohan spoke to OK! Magazine about rehab, staying sober, and the much-documented feud between her parents.

Of rehab, Lindsay says,

“It was a sobering experience. It made me look at myself and all the people, places and things in my life in a different way. I was in there for substance abuse, after all.”

Lindsay is going back to Hollywood briefly, but will be returning to Utah after that.

“I’m going back to shoot Dare to Love Me, but I plan on returning to Utah so I can stay focused and avoid other distractions. Tempation is always there, but now I’ll avoid it the right way.

… [She will surround herself] with good people who have their hearts and their minds in the right places.”

Lindsay adds that she’s not giving up acting anytime soon.

“Absolutely not — never! I’m here to stay. My talent is a gift, and I’m going to use it in the right way.”

As for the feud between her parents, she says,

“I wish it would stop. It hurts when two people you love argue with one another. I don’t think any child wants to see their parents argue or see their family fall apart. Unfortunately, it happens, and when it does, they should do it with as little effect on their children as possible.”

I like that Lindsay’s doing things differently, like calling the tabloids as soon as she gets out of rehab. Paparazzi always help with addiction recovery, right?

What others are saying:

celebitchy says, “Here’s the problem Lindsay. ‘I Know Who Killed Me,’ ‘Just My Luck,’ and ‘Herbie Fully Loaded.’ Pretty much all of those would indicate a severe lack of talent. So you might want to work on getting some before you worry about wasting it. Just a thought.”

dlisted says, “Let’s hope the newly sober Blohan can pick out better movie roles. Damn this bitch chooses real stinkers! Just My Luck?! Georgia Rule?! I Know Who Killed Me?! I’d be hittin’ the pipe too if I made all those turkeys back to back!”

Celebrity Dirty Laundry says, “Lindsay also now seems to have perspective when she revisits those last few months before entering rehab.”
