Up Close and Personal with Lindsay Lohan
Check out this Lindsay Lohan interview. She talks about her new movie Just My Luck and rumors about her:
Remember when the biggest news about Lindsay Lohan was that she hated Hilary Duff? Now she’s been seen picking fights with Jessica Simpson in nightclubs. We pressed Lohan on the hard news, but first we had to talk about her new movie. In Just My Luck, Lohan goes from the charmed life to falling in mud, bumping into walls, and dropping contact lenses in the cat box. Who knew the fates controlled hand-eye coordination?
The Wave: Is it nice to have your red hair back?
Lindsay Lohan: I feel like I have to change my hair color because in all these tabloids, people see me as Lindsay, reading whatever they think is real about me. Then, it’s hard for them to believe I’m playing somebody else in a movie when I look exactly the same. I feel like changing my hair color kind of helps me more.TW: Were you looking for a grown-up girl role?
LL: Yeah, and everything I’m doing after this, my characters are the same age, if not older. You can only act as if you’re in high school for so long. It kind of was the perfect thing for me because it’s not a dark film, so I can still keep the fan base that I’ve grown with. And it’s a really lovely film. It’s a romantic comedy, my first romantic comedy. It still has a good message. I think that’s important, because I still have the young audience to look out for.TW: When you’re walking into walls and slipping in bubbles, how do you know it’s funny?
LL: Well, yeah, when I walked into a glass wall, I’d hoped that people would laugh. I put so much effort into it, God forbid it didn’t happen. But I also want to point out that when we did the washer/dryer scene, we were shooting all through the night. I got a rash from the bubbles. I started breaking out in hives all over from the soap.TW: Are you superstitious?
LL: No hats on the table. [No] hats on the bed. How come no one knows about hats on the bed? I am psychotic when it comes to hats on the bed. For some reason, everyone puts a hat on my bed. It’s the one thing that bothers me. I need to keep a sign up in my room.TW: What do hats on the bed do?
LL: It’s bad luck. I didn’t make it up.
TW: What do you do in your spare time?
LL: Apparently, I just go out to clubs. Really, I just spend as much time as I can with my friends when I’m in the same place as them. And when I’m in New York, it’s great, because I’m really close with my sister, and whenever she’s with me, she makes me happy, so I just beg my mom to let her stay. My mom’s like, “She has to go to school, Lindsay.” So now I think she’s going to play a younger me in a movie so that she’ll be working with me.TW: You dismissed the rumors of your partying. Who is spreading these lies?
LL: If you can find out… I mean, I don’t know, it’s their job. Drama sells. If I’ve dated as many men as they say I have, then I’d be dead by now. You come into this industry and you want to be written about to an extent, obviously, but you’re putting yourself in a place where people are going to put you on a pedestal. And sometimes they build you up to try and take you down. When I was four years old, I didn’t go around saying, “I want to be written about as going to Bungalow Eight every night and showing up to set late.”TW: But how can people say they’ve seen you if you weren’t there?
LL: I read that I’m in New York when I’m here [in Los Angeles]. My mom’s mad at me because she’s like, “You’re in New York? You’re not coming home?” I’m like, “Mom, I’m not in New York.”
TW: What is next for you?
LL: I think I have my life for the next two years planned out. I’m going into another film. I think it starts in two weeks. I’m going to be photographing [the ad campaign for] Karl Lagerfeld, which is exciting. I have a bunch of other movies coming out, so we’re going to all the festivals with them.TW: What drives you to work that hard?
LL: They’re independents, so it’s so much easier, I feel. Seriously, it feels like a lot less pressure. There’s not as much money, so you shoot for a shorter amount of time. And I really like all the different characters. It’s experience, and I want to have as much experience as I can. You only live once. Via The Wave Magazine
