Lindsay Lohan Blames Hard Times on Everybody Else

March 24, 2009

When things have gone a little downhill and you’re looking for someone to blame, it’s always a good idea to look in the mirror—provided that mirror is pointed at everybody else. That’s the way Lindsay Lohan apparently sees it, anyway.

The often-troubled star told E! News that constant scrutiny from fans, tabloids and, well, everybody, has contributed to most of the problems—real and perceived—in her life.

"I move forward and I change. Life's too short not to,” Lohan told E! “If people would just leave my personal life alone—because it's really not that interesting—then I could land a great role. But all the sicko fans and the noise is so distracting."

You hear that, everyone? You’re the ones responsible for I Know Who Killed Me. Jerks.

Lohan also says that most of what is written about her relationship with DJ Samantha Ronson is fabricated. ""They need to stop saying we're fighting…People telling lies about me to her and all this garbage. I'm really a good person and I have a good heart and just want to work and the only reason I go to clubs is to hear Samantha spin or be normal."

Continuing the recent talk about focusing on her career, Lohan says, "I just want to live the dream that I've worked so hard for since I was four years old. I've been through a lot in my life. And there are many things I'd like to do to let people know that they just have to be strong."

And it’s not just about acting, Lohan is looking to “live the dream” all up in everybody’s business, hoping to expand her horizons outside of the world of acting. "I'd like to have my own charity, do work overseas, be in Oscar-nominated films, write movies, produce movies/shows/videos, design clothes, make music, write books, etc.,” she told E! (in what we assume was an email interview.)

She then preemptively blamed us all again in case none of her Angelina Jolie-esque dreams turn out, saying, "It's all possible if people would just stop judging me and accusing me and making me out to be this aloof, spoiled, ungrateful and unprofessional person that I am not and could never be."

Wrapping things up, Lindsay builds to a self-affirming crescendo that still brings a tear to our eye. "With everything that's gone on with my family, my parents still taught us how to have tact, class, respect for others and how to follow our dreams and never change who we are for anyone or anything,” she said. "No. 1 [sic] is perfect, and perfect is impossible.

“You have to make mistakes to learn so that you can grow up and live your life the right way. Things happen, and you have to move on, be strong and believe in yourself. It would be really nice if people would believe in me."
