Lohan wants to "lie low and get better"

Lindsay Lohan

Fresh out of rehab, actress Lindsay Lohan, whose late-night partying with the likes of Paris Hilton and Britney Spears fueled tabloid headlines, says it is time to cool down and take care of herself.

"Everybody's tired of hearing things about me and them, (Hilton and Spears), so I think it's just better for me to lie low and get better," Lohan told Allure magazine in its May issue, now on Newsstands.

Lohan, 20, shot to stardom as a kid in Disney movies like "The Parent Trap" and "Freaky Friday," and as her fame grew, so did persistent hounding from the paparazzi as the young actress was nearly weekly caught out club hopping in Los Angeles.

In July last year, the producer of "Georgia Rule," wrote a letter to Lohan in which he called her behavior "discourteous, irresponsible and unprofessional" because she was showing up late to the movie's set. "Georgia Rule," in which Lohan portrays a troubled young woman, hits theaters this May.

"It upset me because I was...a bit irresponsible," Lohan told Allure. "I didn't think about the consequences, but I was also going through something in my life."

At the time, she was ending the relationship with then boyfriend Harry Morton, who is the son of Hard Rock Hotel & Casino founder Peter Morton, according to Allure.

But her partying ways grew harder, at one point prompting the New York Post to run a picture of Hilton, Spears and Lohan out on the town under the headline "Bimbo Summit."

This past January, Lohan checked herself into a Los Angeles rehabilitation clinic for one month.

"They don't have anything left to say about me, really! They've said everything, literally!" Lohan said about the tabloids, reporters and paparazzi that follow her.

She calls it "weird" that she sought help at the clinic. "I always said I would die before I went to rehab," she said.

Lohan also said she tried too hard to make others happy while not taking stock of herself.

"It's very hard to live your life as a double life. To make myself happy as well as everyone else. Because that's just in me: to keep everyone around me happy," she said, later adding that "You forget. You lose track of taking care of yourself."
