HOLLYWOOD - Lindsay Lohan hopes her forthcoming movie I Know Who Killed Me will show the world she is a serious actress--because she's fed up with her party-animal reputation.
The 20-year-old recently spent a month in the Wonderland rehab center in Beverly Hills--but now wants her work, and not her lifestyle, to make the headlines.
And the star believes her performance as a kidnap and torture victim in I Know Who Killed Me will help her achieve that aim.
She says, "I don't think there has been a role for an actress like this movie was for me in so long.
"At first I was like, 'I can't do this, I'm getting my legs cut off. I don't want to look like that in scenes; I want to look decent.' But that was just me being young and stupid.
"And I have my first sex scene in it, which I always said I wouldn't do. I wanted to do this movie so people can see that I'm a f**king actress and I've been doing it forever and it's about time people see that. It felt so good to really act. I just pray people won't rip me apart for it and be negative.
"The thing with the press, and why they need to leave me the f**k alone for a little bit, is because I don't want that distracting from my work.
"I want to get a nomination. I want to win an Oscar. I want to be known for more than, like, going out--for being the 'party girl.' I hate that. I bust my a*s when I'm filming and when I have time off, yeah, I like to go out and dance."
