About going to rehab at age 21:
People were a little harsh on me, and it was hard to get through things. No one was being very supportive. But I'm a tough cookie. I got through it myself, and with good friends and family.
About originally wanting to play Regina in "Mean Girls":
I really didn't want to be playing the "bad girl." I just......you know what I mean? Like, it would be cool if I could do that eventually, but at this point in my career, I can't just go and play a mean girl and have everyone still think that I'm nice.
About similarities between her and her Mean Girls character, Cady:
I wouldn't let myself be thrown into a table of girls I didn't know and have them be just back and forth talking. I'd be like, 'Whoa, I can't understand a word you're saying. Can you start over?' I wouldn't feel comfortable with them, like, whispering in front of me, like that makes me feel kind of insecure. But I can connect with her in the sense that I've been to a new school before and not really knowing anyone.
Admitting she is stubborn:
When someone tells me not to do something, I'll do it more.
After becoming a brunette:
I feel a bit classier with this hair.
After having pole-dancing lessons for “I Know Who Killed Me“:
Three hours of pole-dancing and bruised everywhere. I mean we're talking upper and inner thigh action-bruised - like a walking black-and-blue mark. I mean really though, really, I didn't know it was actually possible to have bruises in such areas of the body. Strippers dude, I tell you, I really respect the ****s now. I'm not gonna lie to you.
Asked if she thinks fame shelters her from real life:
It depends on who you surround yourself with. If you surround yourself with people who treat you as they would if you didn’t have your pictures everywhere - and I do - then no. I have a great group of people, and I consider myself a pretty humble person. What is fame?
Claiming she parties all night, because she hates going to bed alone:
It's so much harder to stay sober in New York. Though it's hard in Los Angeles not to go out, it gets lonely. Being an actress is lonely, and I never want to be alone. I hate sleeping alone.
Expressing worry about her 13-year-old sister, Aliana:
My little sister Aliana's opinions are the most important to me. She says, 'I want to look like you, you're so pretty!' But she is very beautiful and so she is trouble in the making! She wants to do what I do. I'm like her second mother and I am very protective of her.
Following her break-up with Wilmer Valderrama, where she dropped over 25 pounds, and put on an IV:
I was going through a lot of stuff and not thinking about my body... I nearly died!
On acting role models:
I did get to work with Anthony Hopkins on The Human Stain. If I ever manage to accomplish a quarter of what he's achieved, I'll have had one hell of a career.
On filming Chapter 27, based around John Lennon's assassination:
I sat down with Yoko Ono a few times to talk to her about it because it's a very touchy subject. Nobody wanted me to do the movie, and that actually worked for me! But I wanted to get the okay from Yoko before I did it just because John Lennon is a legend. And I also know Sean, her son. We've been friends for years and we write together.
On going to college:
I would go to NYU. I'm a New York girl, and it's easy to get to London and L.A. from here.
On her brother, Cody:
My brother Cody is 19. He wants to stay out of the limelight and become a lawyer. I want him to be an entertainment lawyer, so he can help me out!
On her relationship with her mother:
She’s my best friend and always will be. So are my brother and sisters, but there’s nothing like your mum. We’ve always been there for each other and I trust her with my life.
On her relationship with Meryl Streep:
It was more of a friend relationship than maternal. Meryl was getting ready to do The Devil Wears Prada and she was like, ‘I don’t know anything about fashion!’ So I gave her a few tips.
On her very public 2009 breakup with Samantha Ronson:
It's absolute hell. I'm not a bad person, and this is what happens. I was raised to treat people well, and I'm so tired of this drama. They're making me sound like I'm crazy...I'm the girl that wakes up to feed the dog. It's not fair....everyone's turned on me. I'm the victim here. I am so alone.
On playing a drug-taking hippy in the film “Hippy“:
It's about a group of kids taking a cross-country trip when one of them drops acid, goes crazy and starts, like, killing people. I have so much faith in [director] Chris and I just love working with him. I love him so much as a person, that while we were on set on our last project, I said, 'Let's make a deal right now.
On Samantha Ronson:
She is a great person. She has a positive impact on the people around her. People can think what they want about us. I'm really happy now, and that's all that matters.
On shooting "Just My Luck":
I felt uncomfortable running around New York City having to kiss strange men who are much older than me. There were little girls watching everywhere and paparazzi were waiting around every corner to snap my picture. I felt nervous and silly.
Refuting claims she had split with partner Samantha Ronson:
Oy vey! Rumors. Just to clear this up, because I have been getting a lot of emails asking me this one question. Samantha Ronson and Lindsay Lohan (me) are NOT breaking up.
Revealing in March 2007 that she had bought two puppies to help her stay sober:
I've bought two puppies. One is a Jack Russell terrier I've named Brooklyn. He's white and black like Chanel. And I've got a Yorkie named Dakota, like my movie name and my little bro. Sober impulse buying of companions will help me stay home.
Revealing she has given up some friends in a bid to stay sober:
There are friends that have been hard to hang out with because they've gone down a different path. But it's really hard because I'm the kind of person who wants to trust everyone.
Why she chose to star in A Prairie Home Companion:
When they asked me to be Meryl Streep’s daughter in a movie, why would I say no? Also, I got to sing live, which I love to do. It’s a movie I know I’ll be proud of when I look back on it.
On relocating to Los Angeles, California and moving in with Raven-Symoné:
We met recently at the Vanity Fair shoot and got along. Our apartment complex has chef and maid services.
On not having privacy:
You can't really complain because it's what you have to accept is going to happen when you're in the spotlight, and you want this. And I understand that. At the same time, it's hard when you're just waking up, and you're going out to get your mail and there are people there. It bugs me sometimes, of course, but I don't do it on purpose, you know? I try to just live my life; I'm not doing stuff like that to get noticed.
Samuel L. Jackson:
I'm a huge fan of his, and as I was walking off the stage with him he started asking me, 'How are you? Are you OK from your accident?' He said, 'I've seen your movie Mean Girls (2004) about five times and I love it'. I said, 'Not only is it amazing to hear that from you, but it's so nice to hear that from someone, because all you read is, 'Lindsay is out 'til four in the morning partying, da, da, da, da'.
Beauty is grace and confidence. I've learned to accept and appreciate what nature gave me.
Because I'm so much in the spotlight, people lose sight of why I'm in the industry. In fact, I'm doing all this because I love to act. I love to perform, to sing.
But I'm not going to go and lose my virginity in a movie, yet, because the second I do that, you can't go back. That makes me much older in terms of film and on the screen.
Everyone has highs and lows that they have to learn from, but every morning I start off with a good head on my shoulders, saying to myself, ‘It’s going to be a good day!’
Girls my age dress so much raunchier than I'd ever imagine myself dressing. I understand that I'm a role model, though, and I have to look out for that. I have a 10-year-old sister, too. But you also want to be appealing to guys and stuff, that's just something girls feel. It's hard. You want to be that girl that's unattainable to all the guys because there are so many other girls out there that are like that.
I am happy being able to play roles with people my age because once you do something really mature there is no turning back.
I haven't had a drink in seven days. Or anything. I'm not even legal to, so why would I? I don't drink when I go to clubs. I drink with my friends at home, but there's no need to. I feel better not drinking. It's more fun. I have Red Bull.
I don't even know how to take a break, because I go crazy. I just sit in a room and I don't know what to do. I went to the Metropolitan Museum and just sat there. But they didn't take any pictures of that, which sucks, because that would have been more interesting than pictures of me coming out of a club.
I don't know if I am cut out to playing a bad character or not - I really should give it a shot. I would like to play the voice of a baddie, but that's really just a cop-out!
I don't like to talk about politics. If you say you're a Democrat, that'll turn off Republicans, and that's half of your fan base.
I don't think I've had enough experience with dating one guy for a long time. The only one was Jared [Leto], and Wilmer Valderrama.
I don't want to keep doing all commercial stuff. But timing is everything. I got this one script where this girl wants to join a Latino gang and she gets raped. I can't be doing that right now. I don't think that's appropriate.
I go out because it's a release. Going out for me is about seeing my friends and not working. Being seen is just something that comes along with it.
I hate it when people call me a teen queen. The past year has felt like five lifetimes because I've grown up a lot.
I love my red hair. It makes me spunkier.
I really enjoy singing and I really enjoy acting, but singing I've been doing since I was really young.
I say too much sometimes, but I'm honest, that's the important thing.
I talk about my impulses with my therapist -- I have a shopping problem; I love to shop too much.
I want to be remembered for the work that I’ve done, rather than the car accidents that I’ve gotten into, the men that I’ve not dated - or the man that I have.
I want to get a nomination. I want to win an Oscar. I want to be known for more than, like, going out. For being 'the party girl.' I hate that. I bust my ass when I'm filming and when I have time off, yeah, I like to go out and dance.
I want to get married before I’m 30. And I’d like to win an Oscar before then.
I want to win an Oscar. I want to be known for more than, like, going out. For being the 'party girl'. I hate that. I bust my ass when I'm filming and when I have time off, yeah, I like to go out and dance.
I was sick. I had people sit me down and say, 'You're going to die if you don't take care of yourself.'
I write a lot of lyrics and I'm involved in the producing process, because it's like, if I'm singing it, I want it to be something that I can relate to.
I write most of my own lyrics for my album and I am helping to produce some of the songs as well.
I’m an angel compared to some of my friends.
I’m really excited because I’m planning a trip to Kenya with The One Foundation. Bono introduced me to it. I’m also trying to get other people on board. I only just told Kate Bosworth about it last night. I want to set up orphanages for underprivileged and abused children.
I'm at the point where I think 'Oh my God I'm going to go out!' I work hard enough and I know how to take care of myself. I don't know what 's going to happen tomorrow.
If I can change bodies with anyone it would be Britney Spears because how can you not like Britney Spears?
If I dated as many people as they said I have, then I would be dead, because it's just not possible.
If I had dated as many men as they say I have, then I’d be dead by now!
I'll probably pursue doing more movies but not horror movies or movies with killers in them. I'll try to stick to happy movies. I want to act and direct like Jodie Foster. I admire her because she went to college and she is still doing the same thing.
I'm 20 years old. I like to party as much as anyone my age. Going clubbing is my way of relaxing or releasing a lot of stress. I don't feel that I should have to justify that part of my life. I don't know that I'm necessarily an addict.
I'm Irish-Italian so I've got a really bad temper.
I'm not going to deny the fact that I've tried pot. I hated it.
I'm not skinny for the wrong reasons. It's not because I'm bulimic or anorexic or doing drugs. Compared to a lot of actresses my age, I'm actually overweight.
I'm not that girl from Freaky Friday any more! I'm a real adult. In fact, I hate children! I hate them all!
I'm the hardest working person I know. I'm 20 years old--is it a crime to want to go out dancing with my friends?
It‘s my body. And I like my body. And I like my breasts. And no, they‘re not fake. I think a woman‘s body is so much more sensual than a man‘s. I‘m not saying strip off all your clothes, but there are certain photos I like people taking of me, where I‘m comfortable. As long as it’s tasteful, why not?
It's flattering that people want to know so much about me and want to take the time to make up that many things about me.
It's hard in L.A. not to go out, it gets lonely. Being an actress is lonely, and I never want to be alone. I hate sleeping alone.
It's so weird that I went to rehab. I always said that I would die before I went to rehab. But I thought, "I'm going to stay here tonight." And I stayed there for a month. It was great.
Jared [Leto] was so paranoid. He'd always be like, 'Don't come over if you're going to bring 15 paparazzi!'
Life is full of risks anyway, why not take them?
Marriage is a big deal, but who's to say I'm not going to pull a Vegas and get married to see what it's like for a minute?
My motto is: Live every day to the fullest - in moderation.
My mum says, "Go with your first instinct," but this can lead to impulse buying!
Never say never. The things that you don't plan are the best. I'm a very spontaneous person.
People go to college to find who they are as a person and find what they want to do in life, and I kind of already know that so it would be like I'd be taking a step back or something.
Say no more than yes, and just make sure you surround yourself with good people.
So many people preach that they love fashion, but really it's what I live for!
There's a way of dealing with hardships that are healthier than going out. That's what I've learned.
When I was four years old, I didn't say "I want to be written up as going to Bungalow 8 every night and for showing up to set late." But you live and learn!
When I'm walking down the red carpet and everybody is screaming my name, all I'm doing is worrying that they're thinking, like, "Oh, she didn't wave at me, she's such a bitch!
Wilmer was my first love. But the timing was bad. And there were all these girls around; he would flirt with them. And I couldn't handle that. I really didn't trust him. So that was hard too.
You shouldn‘t have to give things up for someone. If you love them someone, you should love them for everything they do and all that they are. I love acting and I wouldn‘t give it up for anything, and I don‘t know anyone in my life who would ask me to give it up.
