Hey, at least she's still acting! Take note, Amanda Bynes.

LiLo will next appear in Inferno as Deep Throat porn star Linda Lovelace and the SCRAM anklet-wearer gave an interview with the Sydney Morning Herald to defend her decision:

"I'm playing Linda Lovelace, who was the first globally recognized porn star. She became famous in the '70s with her movie Deep Throat. We follow her through her ups and downs and show what really went on in her life.

The way that Matthew [Wilder, the director] wants to shoot it, is not vulgar. It's not about the raw sex and the shots of her fully nude. It's more about getting into her psyche and seeing how scared she was. That's what I want to show most in the film.

People are going to say: 'Oh, Lindsay Lohan is doing a porno.' But it's not like that. I've never played someone's true-life story before. A lot of the other movies I did were just brainless for me. So it's nice to play something where I'm able to experience all these different emotions."

We're rooting for you, Lindsay! We sincerely hope this film proves to be a big comeback for you. The 23-year-old adds the following about her chaotic tabloid life:

"Ninety-nine per cent of the things that get said are not true. I'm still young and I'm still learning but that doesn't mean that what they say is true, that I'm getting messed up and all this crazy stuff and that I'm constantly partying or whatever."

Mmm, really Linds? I know your post-court partying has died down, but you're consistently out clubbing 'till the early morning hours... if that's not partying, what is?
