Lindsay Lohan has claimed that she was charged with handling the body of Whitney Houston during her time in community service.
In an interview with The Telegraph, Lohan said that she worked 12-hour shifts from 4am to 4pm in a morgue for four months after being sentenced to community service for drink driving in 2012.
"[It was] F’d up and inappropriate - because a lot of other people were meant to do it, and they were like: 'No, they can’t handle it. Lohan can.’ It’s different for me than it would be for other people – like, no one would really have to work at the morgue in LA and roll a body bag for Whitney Houston.”
“I know it sounds really dark and strange, but I thought it would be a lot worse. I kind of regulated a lot of it. I’d tell people: 'You didn’t fold that sheet properly’, because I’m OCD with folding.”
The actress is currently in rehearsals for an appearance in David Mamet's Speed The Plow, telling the newspaper that she saw the role as an opportunity to restore her reputation.
“I like the idea of being able to fight for what I lost, essentially. I lost a lot of... I wouldn’t say... I don’t think 'respect’ is the word… trust from a lot of people. And I don’t mind gaining that back.”
“I’m glad that I’m finding my way. I want to work for this next year, and then take some time, and hopefully fall in love, and hopefully have a family. Now I see all these kids that are living so fast. I think: I’ve been there. I want to hold them, and say: it’s not worth it.”
