Lindsay Lohan Talks Returning To Acting In Italian 'Vanity Fair'

Lindsay Lohan

First Posted: 07/05/11 03:05 PM ET Updated: 09/04/11 06:12 AM ET

If there's one thing to admire about Lindsay Lohan, she isn't lazy. While under house arrest, the 24-year-old actress has managed to violate her parole, tape a commercial and, most recently, stage an Italian Vanity Fair photo shoot.

Not a stranger to magazine covers, (oh, how they love her!) in this VF interview, Lohan is super-duper blond and, like a cooped up teenage princess, plays dress up in her LA pad.

With her grueling month-long house arrest at an end, Lohan talks about her mistakes and her future, the gun she keeps in her pink fur jacket, the fact that jail is a terrible place and her plans to get back into acting.

And while that all sounds fine and good, here's the thing--Lohan is a number of years, and a number of rehab-stints from that fresh-face red head in 'Mean Girls.' If Lohan would be able to turn over a new leaf, could she really get her career back? It's not so much of a forgive-and-forget tale, but for this party girl, the straight-and-narrow has never been her favorite road; her reinvention could prove to be an impossibly tall order.

Cynicism aside, sure, it's possible. Like the actress said, translated from the VF article, "I want to be an actress and I'm good. You learn from your mistakes, right?"

Fingers crossed, Lindsay!

If the no talent ass clown Robert Downey Jr. can make a 2nd career, then Lohan can too.

No, because she's always a step away from disaster.

A smart manager, or agent, knows that in spite of the notoriety, in the best marketing scenarios, there is no such thing as bad publicity.

This is where her choice of roles in the near future will need to be as practically an art form. The fact that she's so well known can catapult her or literally destroy her for good. This is where her maturity and good acting sense will make all the difference. If she takes a role in something like "Transformers 4" -you might as well tell her goodbye now.

It will be interesting to watch and see. Personally, I love Linds... Sure hope she picks a good one. Good luck, babe.

Whoever edited this rambling fluff should consider joining Lindsay in rehab.

The insurance on her for appearing on a project would have to be awfully expensive. There are lots of other actresses around.

Anyone can make a comeback. Look at Robert Downey Jr.

She doesn't have a tenth of his talent, but talent and success aren't always directly related.

Can Lindsay Lohan Make A Comeback? No. That ship has sailed. More talented -- and deserving -- people have filled any void she left. She is a freak-show novelty draw now, a car crash on two feet. I don't even wish her well anymore, mostly I just wish she would go away and hide so we are not witness to her trainwreck of a life.

Man, seriously - not as a joke, or comment hyperbole, but seriously - it's hard to believe she's still only 24...in most pictures you see of her, she really could pass for 42.

Come Back as what? Did I miss her blockbuster movie? Or Oscar worthy performance.... Unfortunately I believe she is the new "child actor turned into adult tabloid fodder"- unless she becomes the next Glenn Close- she stays right where she is... sorry Lilo

I always laught at the press when the use the term 'come back'. I would believe that one would have to be out of the lime-light and press to be gone...then a few years later...re-appear for a 'come back'. But Lindsay has star quality and will always be in the press for one reason or another.

Acting? Acting in her own worst interests, yes, Acting to destroy her career, yes. Acting as if she is above the law, yes. Acting up so badly no insurance company will insure the soot, yes,

Acting to the best of her abilities? No. Acting professionally? No. Acting like a responsible adult? No.
