Lindsay Lohan had on her sassy face when she posed for the cover of October's Marie Claire. Between filming Labor Pains and Ugly Betty, Lindsay found time to open up to the magazine about her new focus on work, her father's paternity dispute and, of course, Samantha Ronson. Lindsay was happy to chat about the tattoos she and Samantha both have, but she still managed to keep things a little vague by discussing her plans to buy a house with "someone." Here's more:

  • On her relationship with Samantha: "Um, people can think what they want. I'm really happy, and that's all that matters."
  • On Samantha: "She's a great person. And she's a great influence on people around her. But I think that anything that's changed in my life is because of me. I've gone through it and I've had to deal with it and I've made the decision to move forward. So yeah, she's a great person."
  • On Michael's paternity dispute: "I don't know what's going on with it. I haven't asked him any questions. Apparently we've been in the dark for so many years. We've gone through enough with him. Enough is enough — until he decides to be a grown-up."

  • On her new attitude towards filming: "It's a lot of pressure, because everyone's depending on you. And your mood, when you go on set, everybody feels it. On a day when you're tired, it's important to just say good morning to everyone so they're kind of aware that it's gonna be a good day. Jamie Lee Curtis told me that."
  • On her resolve not to go back to her old ways: "I've learned. I'll never go back. And it's not a never-say-never type thing - it's just, I know. I know."

Lindsay's come a long way over the past year and we're ready to see her career back on track. Plus, even though she seems happily calm and settled with her girl Samantha, she's still got her spunky spirit. Check out more in this month's Marie Claire on newsstands.

    It's nice that Jamie Lee Curtis taught her some basic manners, something her own parents obviously neglected to do.

    I realy hope she does make it.So much hatred against her and Samantha.I love her answers so true and she doesnt hide or avoid them she is a real person.Iam glad she is keeping her distance from her father.She does need to setle,she is only 22 and she doesnt have a place to call home,living in hotels.Thats why so eagerly i guess she moved in with Samantha.I do hope she makes it.

    She really is much improved... Grown up really.. Even though her relationship with Sam was a shock I don't thing anyone can deny that it's not been a good thing for her... Well done her though, she really has turned her career around.. there's no way at the beginning of the year MC would have had her on their front cover!

    I haven't paid all that much attention to her, but it's good to see any young woman stop faking it and stop making the same mistakes over and over again. Personally, I don't care who anyone partners with,as long as they aren't supposed to be partnered with me or plan to be;)! I'm so with her on the father thing, parents in general should deal with their own issues; since when do the kids clean up their mess or answer for them. good job to stay out of it!

    It must really suck to worship people so much..this is one interivew she was obviously coached for...she is the same talentless cokehead she was last year...Jaime Lee Curtis was in a movie w/ her um...how long ago? Well before she messed up on countless movie sets...she's just better at hiding it

    She should do us all favor and retire

    Good for her for trying to get her life together but I don't think she's a very good actress.

    So, she had to grow up with all that attention around her, do her share of mistakes and get over them... Good for her.

    I think she's really doing well lately. I always did like her as an actress and I think she's beautiful (when she's not ultra-skinny), so I'm glad she seems to be cleaning her act up.

    It's good top see that she has a good head to her shoulders (so far!) And it'd def. thanks to Sam!
    She looks really great in these pics too, but I still think she should go back to her natural hair colour Sticking out tongue

    Hey lisa you see Anne Hathaway for example talking for her career lately?All we hear about its her crook ex and how poor victim Anne knew nothing about him yet they were living together for years while she tours the magazines talking not talking about it.
    Lindsay is slowly going back to her red hair.Check out some of her pics from the set of Ugly Betty yesterday where she looked damn hot.

    I'm glad to see that Lindsay is doing better. She looks healthy and happy, so I guess that's all that counts.

    KatiaD: I'm just curious...do you only post on the threads about Lindsay and Samantha? I'm not knocking you or anything, I just haven't seen you post in any other topic. Smiling

    Katia im not trying to get at you either. ann hathaway has been promoting new work this last couple months, an actual film finished and released. all im saying she is no jodie foster is she? she is some minor starlet!!!and i happen to think the way she drip feeds info on her and sam is amnipulative to garner most publicity!!
    now nothing wrong with that but if this girl wins any serious acting awrds, i will eat her hair extentions!! she is not a serious actress

    Cause i usually dont post at sites.Iam just racked and upset over this past period of how Lindsay is attacked when she hasnt done anything worst than others.How many chances Britney was given?And she even has two litle kids who she gave custody up,yet everybody goes yeah on her.Even though i support Britney too.Iam upset to see everybody wanting Lindsay to crash and burn after she went throu so much in her life.And iam even more upset from the racist and sexist remarks against Samantha Ronson.I happened to be fat in my life a couple years ago when i stopped working out and started my working career,and the racism for everybody different is so disgusting.Now iam back on my normal weight and again the hypocricy makes me gringe.I have posted in other topics too but not so often as this one.I find this site the most positive of many though.

    Realy?How you know she is not a serious actress?In this interview the director of her movies talks too and describes Lindsay with the best words ,yet no one mention it they focus on the gossip.And i dont need to refer to many great actresses and Directors who had great words for Lindsay.But of course you see what you want to see.I accept she is a spoiled brat,she is selfish,but i also can admit she is a great talent.She is still 22.Iam sick of the Plastics who say and do what is expected.This girl has soul.

    i celebrate the individual. and believe me we in britain dont give too figs about being gay, honestly i dont flipping care one way of the other. i dont even care for about her problems with substances. not two bits. all the best. but her life is her career now. she is not that interesting and she aint a good actress, i saw georgia rules and i cringed a fair bit. again her private life is her business. im critising her career. she has none. now where is that plate of hair extentions.

    Couldn't they have photoshopped her right arm in that second photo? It looks huge, especially in comparison with her leg. Weird.

    Katia, I don't think I've seen anyone say they want her to crash and burn.

    Lindsay has gotten the fan response she has BECAUSE of her antics. She has to make some changes to get those fans back.

    Me for example. Back in the days Mean Girls, I loved her. Even my SON was in love with her back then. But when she started the heavy drinking, partying, vajayjay flashing etc. She lost me. Hers wasn't mental illnes either which I THINK is why she didn't get the sympathy that Britney got.

    That said though, these last few months I've warmed up to her again. She's grown on me, and frankly, I like THIS Lindsay almost better than the Mean Girls lindsay. She's living her life, doing her thing, and not flaunting every move she makes. Yes, she's in the tabs a lot, but most of that isn't her doing.

    But seriously Katia, the discord she's receiving is her own doing. She made the choices she made, and now she has to deal with the consequences.

    And I DO think Lindsay is a serious actress. She has a real flair for comedy. She made some seriously BAD movies for a while, but that was during her "Crash and burn" period. However, something she did just prior to rehab, Georgia Rule, now that was a good movie. I think she'll get there again, but again she just needs time. HER time, not ours.

    I don't understand why she lands herself on the cover of mags when there's so many other actresses out there that are far more interesting.

    As i said mostly the majority of the press and people who go along with what Hollywood producers want,are the ones who want to write of Lindsay.She still has a huge fan base while i became a supporter just lately a couple months ago.I have seen 4 movies first one the parent trap,and then mean girls,and just recently after some friends sugested it i saw Bobby and Georgia Rule and i must say she was great at both.I was suprised and still iam suprised at how many people will bother to post videos of her in Youtube or watch videos about her,we talk about millions and thousands of comments.I was also suprised to read about how in one day 45 million hits crashed the site to see her photos doing Monroe on NY magazine.So she still seems to have a huge fan base,otherwise why the paps and press will bother?What makes me angry though is the haters.
    Mykie she was young,she still is.At the age of 18 she was taking 7 million for a movie.She was considered the bigest talent of her generation after Mean girls.She has no father to stood by her,her mother was promoting herself throu her.What did you expect?She was working since 7 years old.
    I do believe when they got her with a drink on her hand,everybody will go out to bash her and call her names and so on.She didnt have a drinking problem though/She had a drug problem.So i dont hold my breath.

    Well here is still very warm the sun is out,everybody sits outside bars clubs taverns.Still summer.
    I happened to see some videos in Youtube and there was a show MTV diaries or something,and you see Lindsay 16 years old going to the set or something,in a limo and her mother calls her,and she talks with her litle sister Ali who is crying and want to see her while Lindsay had to work and provide for them,and she starts crying and when she shuts the phone she says how much she misses them and so on.Now reading this interview and how she says she was staying at hotels so she wont be alone.
    Sorry but whatever happens iam on her side.

    I love her - like I've said before thank God _I_ didn't have a camera trained on me during MY early 20's....

    I hope she becomes the next Angelina - remember how people used to be so shocked and offended by her?

    Consider Lilo's parents and then cut her some slack. She's learning, she's making mistakes and ultimately she hasn't hurt anyone (true, some luck there)

    I'm very happy for her that she seems to finally be getting her life on track. All of these young ladies -- Nicole and Britney and Lindsay -- that seemed to be destined for death or jail, are all doing so well. Kudos to them!
