Lindsay Lohan shot an interview with Matt Lauer for Today this morning (it airs Thursday) to promote her SNL appearance, and it was a no-holds-barred sit-down. Of course, she repeated many of the same talking points as a year ago, when she also sat down with Lauer and professed that she had her $h!t together. Ouch. Excerpts from what LiLo had to say this time around: On partying hardcore : “It’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. I’ve become more of a homebody. I like that.” On whether she was in denial last year : “Definitely and I think it was … it’s a scary thing to have to kind of express to people … I wasn’t as comfortable with myself then.” “I think it was a fear factor that I had. I had to get that wakeup call.” On whether the industry can trust her : “I think that takes time. I think that it’s actions. People can say things all they want, but I still need to go through the process of proving myself … keeping my – can’t say the word – but stuff together.” On using SNL to clear her name : “I don’t want people to have that reason to be scared anymore. So being able to have this opportunity with SNL , I’m just gonna do what I’m supposed to do, and enjoy doing it, and do it as best as I can.” On her role in the Elizabeth Taylor biopic : “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.” “I’m really honored. And I will not let anyone down, especially myself.” Basically, Lindsay Lohan is now the epitome of a straight-arrow homebody, according to Lindsay Lohan. What do you think? Can she really turn it around and stay clean?
