Lindsay Lohan admits drug use, bulimia battle

[Thom Little]

Teen actress Lindsay Lohan, who was hospitalized in Miami this week suffering from asthma, said dabbling in drugs and battling bulimia pushed her close to emotional and physical collapse.

"I knew I had a problem and I couldn't admit it," Lohan, the star of movies such as "Mean Girls" and "Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen," told Vanity Fair magazine.

"I was making myself sick. I was sick and I had people sit me down and say 'You're going to die if you don't take care of yourself,'" she said in the magazine's latest issue, which hit newsstands on Wednesday.

Lohan said she used drugs "a little" but quickly tried to retract the admission and denied that she had taken cocaine. "I don't want people to think that I've done ... you know what I mean? It's kind of a sore subject," she said.

1. So she finally comes clean?

Hope she gets the helps she needs. She has put on some of the weight, so that is a positive sign.

2. Hey Lindsay, you know those smokes affect the asthma too

She'll be nothing within a few years let's hope she saved her money well!

4. She was a really good teenage actress

Pretty, a nice, almost normal figure. Then, she started hanging with Paris Hilton, et al, lost about 30% of her body weight, and just kinda imploded.

7. Yeah, a bright candle burns out fast...

To use a cliche.

Have you ever noticed the celebs which are around for years and years... May
say they are and may have experimented with "the wild life". But, are usually
pretty normal in their real life style.

8. Yeah, I have noticed that

And, regardless of age, don't seem to be big clubbers. Instead, 'people" magazine photographs them buying Christmas trees or something like that. And, lots of young actors and actresses are pretty "normal" -- the wild ones just get the ink.

3. It's kind of a sore subject,"
