Reflecting on the troubles that landed her in rehab last year, Lindsay Lohan told PEOPLE "I was putting myself in the wrong situations and I didn't have the focus in the right place." Now the actress is trying to reinvigorate her film career. "I think this is what I love to do," she told the magazine. Here she poses during a March 6 photography exhibit she hosted.

Later this month, Lohan's new film 'Chapter 27' is due to be released. In it she plays a John Lennon fan who befriends the ex-Beatle's assassin, Mark David Chapman, played by Jared Leto.

Talking about her past hard-partying ways with Paper magazine, Lohan said the life of an actress is "go-go-go, and the easiest thing was to run away from it, going out and drinking at night." She then turned apologetic, saying "I didn't realize it was getting in the way of my work -- what I've worked for my whole life."

On the eve of this year's Oscars, Lohan was awarded three Razzies for her work in 'I Know Who Killed Me,' in which she played two roles. She won two by finishing in a tie with herself for Worst Actress and won another for Worst Screen Couple for a scene in which her two characters meet.

Many thought Lohan's recreation of Marilyn Monroes legendary "last sitting" for the Feb. 25 issue of New York magazine was inappropriate, citing the substance abuse that has plagued Lohan and killed Monroe.

In January, video surfaced of Lohan taking a drink from a bottle of champagne during a New Year's Eve party in Italy. "The good news was that Lindsay stopped herself that night, called her sponsor, and got herself immediately back on track," said Lohan's lawyer, Blair Berk.

Though she first went into rehab in January 2007, Lohan's problems really started to spiral out of control on May 26 of that year. That day she told ELLE magazine she would never drive drunk. Just a few hours later, she hopped the curb and hit a tree while inebriated.

Two nights later, she had to be helped out of the nightclub Teddy's, where she had been partying with her friend Samantha Ronson.

That night, paparazzi found Lohan passed out in the passenger seat of her car, with Ronson at her side. There was speculation that Ronson tipped off photographers as to Lohan's state and location.

The following week Lohan found herself embroiled in yet another scandal, as photos of her partying and playing with knives surfaced on the Internet.

Its ridiculous to even consider a movie about Marilyn Monroe of all people. The woman has been dead almost 50 yrs and no one can get over it! She's in the paper and on tv all the time! So is John Kennedy and John Lennon! This isnt news! Its history! They're dead! Get over it! Move on! Its 2008 now!

PS........ that photographer should have done this already with the late blonde bombshell Anna Nicole Smith before her untimely death. THAT would have been worthy of being called "art". THAT would have been excellent. But sadly he waited too long, and then made a poor choice. These photos are at best mediocre. But hey, that's JMHO... (Oh well... with all the unwarranted press this is getting, at least he's making a ton of money to leave to his family.)

JMHO: I think Lindsay Lohan was a poor choice by the photographer for recreating anything by Marilyn Monroe. Lindsay does not have the physical curves required, does not have the sex appeal or the personality, she doesn't even exude "star quality". She's just a decent looking girl with a few good connections in Hollywood. Other than that, she's not talented or gifted in acting, singing, etc. Almost anyone could have posed for those MM shots and looked divine; especially with the wig, a professional makeup artist and airbrushing. IMHO, the photographer failed miserably. And now we are stuck with it until AOL realizes it's time to find some better news for us. As for NY Magazine, I think they have now officially lost the respect and readership of many people who are wondering why they are making such a big deal out of something so unworthy.

Not here to bash, just to give my honest opinion on the subject at hand: I think Lindsay Lohan was a poor choice by the photographer for recreating anything by Marilyn Monroe. Lindsay does not have the physical curves required, she does not have the sex appeal, she does not exide the personality, she doesn't even exude "star" quality. She's just a decent looking young lady who apparently has a few good connections in Hollywood. Other than that, she's not particularly talented in acting, singing or anything else. Almost anyone could have posed for those MM shots and looked divine -- especially with the wig, the professional makeup artist and the airbrushing. I think the photographer failed in his attempt to do something "great", and unfortunately now we are stuck with it until AOL News realizes it's time to find us some better news or photos to look at. As for NY Magazine, I think they have now officially lost the respect and readership of many people who are wondering why they are maki

People who don't have "it" are forever trying to be like someone who does (e.g. Norma Jean Baker).
Any time a starlette bows so low as to try to immitate Marilyn Monroe (often poorly I might add) - it PROVES that they recognize that they don't have "it" -- or they have become insecure.
A real star blazes a trail -- they don't look to PROVE that they "could be like" ANYONE but themselves.
Makeup artists are fantastic these days -- but the allure of Monroe is her PERSON and SPIRIT and ANIMA -- NOT her looks alone.
