Lindsay Lohan: I Still Need to 'Prove Myself'

Lindsay Lohan opens up about partying, regaining fans’ trust, and her upcoming Elizabeth Taylor role in a Today interview set to air Thursday (March 1).

Here’s what the 25-year-old actress had to share with Matt Lauer (via USA Today):

On hitting the party scene: “That’s not my thing anymore. I went out, actually, a few months ago with a friend. And I was so uncomfortable. Not because I felt tempted, just because it was just the same thing that it always was before. And it just wasn’t fun for me. I’ve become more of a homebody. And I like that.”

On hoping the public trusts her again: “I think that that’s gonna take … I think that takes time. And I think that it’s actions. Because people can say things all they want, but I think I still need to go through the process of proving myself, you know, with SNL, being on time, being, you know, keeping my – can’t say the word – stuff together.”

On playing Elizabeth Taylor in an upcoming project: “We’re in the middle of casting and figuring – we start production soon. I’ve been doing tons of research. But I’ve always kind of researched her. She’s always been a fascinating woman to me. So I’m really honored. And I will not let anyone down, especially myself. Because people, you know, I could see where it could be scary for people to invest in me. And I don’t want people to have that reason to be scared anymore. So being able to have this opportunity with SNL and the film, I’m gonna do what I’m supposed to do, and enjoy doing it, and do it as best as I can.”
