“There’s a business side to my life now, but I’m not in America, so no one knows about it, which is nice for me,” says Lohan, who is now the owner of a beach club in Greece. “Because I get to actually focus on the result of things.”
In case anyone still thinks of her as primarily a party girl, she adds: “I’m a normal, nice person. A good person. I don’t have any bad intentions. And my past has to stay in the past. Like, people have to just let go of it and stop bringing it up because it’s not, it’s gone. It’s dead. And that’s the most important thing to me.”
The actress knows she can’t change the public’s perception of her overnight, nor is that her intention.
“I think success is the best revenge and silence, as a presence. When I chose to change my future, my life, I was like, ‘Where’s the one place I can find silence?'” she explains.
Lohan felt compelled to change after her former fiancé, Russian socialite Egor Tarabasov, was filmed assaulting her in public two years ago.
“It happened, here in Mykonos, on the beach. And that was the moment where I switched and I was like, ‘I’m going to take control of my life completely, and fire everyone and just rehire them when I’m ready.’ And that’s why I’m here today because it was on that beach where I got hit,” Lohan tells the newspaper.
Lohan, who would only consider doing a photo shoot for The New York Times if it was paid, says she has a couple of movies on the way, and she hopes they will be accepted by the public when they’re released.
“I know who I am as a person,” she says. “I don’t want any judgment on me. You know?” she adds. “My acting is good, my work is good, and I love work.”
