14 DAY TRIAL // If you believe what you read online, despite her sobriety pledges and on-camera promises, Lindsay Lohan has long reverted back to her old partying lifestyle and is a trainwreck waiting to happen. Last night on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, she set the record straight on all those rumors.
For starters, while at Coachella Music Festival 2014 last weekend, she did not drink – but she did have a blast. Speaking on reports that she partied hard and got so intoxicated she could hardly stand, Lindsay said the only partying she did was “of a dancing manner, which could look like anything to anyone.”
She stressed that she didn’t drink anymore, but added that she still had friends that did because to cut them out would have meant being left all alone. As for reports that her mother Dina was her enabler, Lindsay vehemently denied them.
“It's really interesting how people perceive it and what gets told. My mom, if anything, comes out with me because I've forced her to come out with me – she's my security blanket. I have a cool mom, she had me at a really young age,” Lindsay explained, adding that Dina didn’t drink either.
Other topics the star discussed were: the infamous list of men she’d slept with that got leaked online, whose existence she finally confirmed, her acting career so far, and working with Oprah. Oh, and she hinted that the part she almost landed in “The Avengers” was the role that eventually went to Cobie Smulders.
“That was actually my fifth step in AA when I was in Betty Ford,” she said, when asked of the list. “Someone must have taken a photo of it, it's really unfortunate,” she added.
“I don't regret it at all,” Lindsay continued, speaking of the OWN docuseries she shot. “Oprah's literally been, and I'm not just saying this, she's been a blessing to me in my life as a friend and a mentor. I can actually say that I can call Oprah whenever I need to. It's been nice to show who I am as a person so people actually can see all the chaos that comes in and comes out, and that's life.”
Oprah might not be on the same page with her on that, at least from what the glossies are saying. Ratings for the docuseries have been so disappointing that Oprah decided not to ask Lindsay back for a second season, an option she entertained from the start, assuming the first season did well.
