HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Lindsay Lohan appears to still hold a grudge against Scarlett Johansson.
Speaking with Lauren Hutton in the February issue of Interview, Lohan expresses her disappointment that she's unable to land the same opportunities as the "Lost in Translation" star. Much of that, she admits, is her own fault, thanks to being arrested for drunk driving and having spent time in rehab. But Lohan says it's a never-ending battle trying to escape the media.
"It's so impossible for me to actually [go someplace where no one knows me]," she tells the mag. "When I was in Dubai, there was still press lined up around the hotel. So I find it close to impossible to actually do that. I mean, it is what it is. This is what I asked for, and in this day and age that's what actually goes on.
"But what hurts me the most is that I work just as hard as any other actress around my age, like Scarlett Johansson, but I just don't get the opportunities that they get because people are so distracted by the mess that I created in my life. But that doesn't mean it's going to last forever."
In the December issue of Allure magazine, Johansson spoke out about the apparent bad blood between the two stars, including Lohan's alleged crude scribbling against her on a New York City bathroom wall two years ago.
"I really don't know [her]," she said of Lohan. "I only met her, like, three times. But apparently she did [write something]. I don't know what the motivation was behind that. I remember it was something really vulgar — I mean, shockingly so, like, 'Whoa, what, who are you?' "
[It has been claimed that Lohan scribbled "Scarlett is a cunt."]
As for Lohan, she tells Interview that whatever roles do come her way in the future, she doesn't expect anything like the golden days.
"I wanted to be a movie star [growing up]. But movie stars are not what they used to be," she explains. "When I was a kid, I thought movie stars were women and men who were in these great films that we still look at now. But I don't think there are too many films coming out these days that we're going to look at in the future and say, 'This is one of the great ones.'
"Like, what is the great film that I will tell my children about? I'm still going to tell them about the old films, the Hitchcock films. And people my age don't even know who those people are. I can't even have a conversation with most people of my generation about that, because they'd be like, 'Okay, she's a freak. Something's wrong with her.' "
