Here’s What Lindsay Lohan Did to Successfully Resurrect Her Career
The year was 2004 and young actress-slash-singer Lindsay Lohan was on top of the world.
With successful teen movies and a hit album under her belt, Lohan was definitely on the fast track for Hollywood stardom.
But all of these wouldn’t matter in a few years after a series of bad decisions and heavy partying practically killed her career and reputation.
Now, LiLo is back and determined to get her career back on track.
Developing a Professional Attitude
Lohan is now managing her own resort in Greece which is the subject of her new MTV show.
If you first watched and rooted for Lohan after seeing her impressive performance in the film The Parent Trap, chances are high that you’re one of those people who’s been waiting for her to return.
And now she’s here again. This time with an MTV reality television series, Lindsay Lohan’s Beach Club.
According to industry insiders, what makes her most recent comeback different from her previous ones is the fact that the 32-year-old actress has truly matured. In fact, she’s now even turning up for work early and all to show her professionalism.
It seems that Lohan is indeed a changed woman now and appears to be more focused on her career than ever.
The Importance of Self-Improvement
In her new show, Lohan takes on the uncharacteristic role of the boss as she manages her luxury resort in sunny Mykonos, Greece.
She credits her new found maturity to her move to Dubai where she has been living in since 2015.
Lohan compared how healthy the city is for her compared to the toxic feeling that New York left her with when she was living there. In Dubai, Lohan was able to fully distance herself from her previous party lifestyle due to the strict intolerance for drugs and the lack of paparazzi who bothers her.
The actress even wore a hijab and modest clothing during press interviews to show respect to Muslim traditions.
After living there for years, she’s now developed a healthier lifestyle filled with meditation, cooking and hanging out with family and friends. The actress has also started working on learning some new languages and is now fluent in French.
She’s also started focusing her efforts on humanitarian issues. Just last year, the actress was able to meet the Turkish president to talk about the current refugee crisis and was even able to visit refugee camps.
Keeping Distance From the Past
Lohan plays the role of Katerina, Grint’s new boss, in the workplace comedy series.
Aside from making personal improvements to herself, she’s also made a return to her first love: acting.
She is currently starring in the Netflix series Sick Note together with former Harry Potter actor Rupert Grint and comedian Nick Frost.
The series mainly tapes in London which is a perk to Lohan who says that she prefers not to go back to the United States and remain either in the Middle East or Europe for work. For her, the new setup is a breath of fresh air compared to the pressure she felt while shooting in Hollywood.
