Lindsay Lohan is speaking out in her first interview after serving time in jail. Vanity Fair posted clips from their upcoming issue with Lindsay Lohan on the cover and my jaw dropped at some of the horrors Lindsay Lohan speaks. She speaks on being led down a path of destruction which we saw unfold daily on blogs, tabloids and this very site on an almost daily basis. Now for the first time Lindsay Lohan is speaking out on how her life ended up the way it did.
“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.” And when she first moved to L.A., Lohan says, “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.” She says tabloids were her main source of news, and calls that “really scary and sad… I would look up to those girls… the Britneys and whatever. And I would be like, I want to be like that.”
Lindsay Lohan continues by letting the world know she is not the addict she’s being painted to be. She tells Vanity Fair “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 did seems to not miss a beat with the Scram bracelet on, I must admit.

Lindsay also has some advice for other people struggling with addictions saying “I think everyone has their own addictions and hopefully learns how to get past them,” she says, in an interview conducted one week before her jail time began. “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.”
Maybe the most revealing thing about the whole interview is when Lilo says “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.”
Vanity Fair’s new issue hits stands in NY & LA Sept 2 and nationwide Sept 7th.
